Siheyuan: Walking the Path of Qin Huairu

At this time, a young man went up and grabbed Mrs. Zhang, whispering, "Mom, if you have something to say, go home and tell it, don't let outsiders laugh at you." Mrs. Zhang took advantage of the situation, glared at her daughter-in-law, and was about to go home with her son.

Since Xu Huizhen was in charge of this matter, she had to see it through to the end. She was expecting the system's reward in her heart. So she tried to stop him, saying, "You beat him up like this, and you want to get away with it? If you just leave like this, I will go to the police station and report the case right away."

As expected, Mrs. Zhang and her son stopped and dared not move. Xu Huizhen asked the woman hiding behind her: "Tell me, why did your mother-in-law beat you?"

The woman wept and told the story of what happened. It turned out that the young woman's name was Chen Huimin, and her husband used to be an employee of the glass factory. He died in the line of duty some time ago, and the pension given by the company was seized by Mrs. Zhang, and not a penny was given to her and her son Xiaojun.

That’s not all. Chen Huimin was going to take over her husband’s job at his unit, but her mother-in-law wanted her second son to take over, saying that the job was too tiring and not suitable for a woman.

Fortunately, the house that Chen Huimin lives in now was allocated by the glass factory, otherwise this evil mother-in-law would probably not even let the house go.

Of course Chen Huimin was unwilling. She had no job to begin with. After her husband left, she and her son lost their source of income. They would have to rely on this job to support their family. Today, Mrs. Zhang came with her second son and used both soft and hard tactics, but she refused to compromise. So, Mrs. Zhang got angry and beat Chen Huimin up.

Her mother-in-law was her elder, so she couldn't fight back. Her brother-in-law was there to protect Mrs. Zhang. Chen Huimin had no choice but to rush out of the door, where she was run into by Xu Huizhen.

After listening to Chen Huimin's story, some onlookers stood up for Chen Huimin, and some said, "Your son is dead, so you don't care about your grandson's life or death?"

Some people said: "This old woman has a very evil heart. No wonder her husband died and her son is gone. It's because she didn't do good deeds."

Others said: "This young man is not a good person either. He is leaving no chance for his sister-in-law and nephew to survive!"

Xu Huizhen coughed dryly and said to Mrs. Zhang, "You have the right to inherit the pension left by your eldest son. Chen Huimin and her son also have the right to inherit it, but it has nothing to do with your second son. You can convert your job position into money, add it to the pension, and then divide it into three equal parts, one for each person. As for the child's share, whoever raises the child will get it."

She turned to Chen Huimin and asked, "How much is your husband's pension?"

Chen Huimin: "The pension is 480 yuan, and the job can be sold for about 500 yuan."

Xu Huizhen: "It's 980 yuan in total, divided equally into three parts, 326 yuan per person. The job is given to your daughter-in-law, and you have to give them and their son 154 yuan."

When Mrs. Zhang heard that she had to give up the money she had earned, she refused to do it: "Whatever you say, I won't give it to you. Let's see what this little bitch can do to me."

Xu Huizhen: "That is your grandson's living expenses. You can withhold it, but your grandson will be alienated from you in the future. There is a saying: It is better to bully an old man than a young man. When your grandson grows up and becomes successful, he will be a glory to your Zhang family, but he will have nothing to do with you. I don't know how you will feel. In the future, a hundred years later, when you go to the underworld, how will you face the ancestors of the Zhang family, and how will you face your eldest son?"

The onlookers: "Yes, Mrs. Zhang, please do some good deeds."

Mrs. Zhang said unconvincedly, "My eldest son's job belongs to our Zhang family. We gave it to her. She is so young. If she remarries in the future, won't the job be taken to someone else's family?"

Xu Huizhen said, "If your son dies, you still have your second son to take care of you in your old age. Chen Huimin's husband died, and she can remarry if she wants. Your grandson is the only one who has no one to rely on. His father is the only one, so your grandson should be the one to take over. But he is still young and cannot take over. Then whoever takes over the job will have to raise the child. When the child grows up, the job will be returned to the child. If your second son takes over the job, he will have to raise your nephew as his own son. Ask him if he can do it? If you have a son without getting married, it will be difficult for him to find a partner in the future! Moreover, if he wants to raise the child, he must get the consent of the child's biological mother, Chen Huimin."

When Mrs. Zhang heard this, she turned her head and glanced at her second son. Her second son lowered his head to look at his feet without saying a word. It was obvious that he was an irresponsible man.

Someone said: "Young man, please give your sister-in-law and nephew a chance to survive so that we can meet again someday!"

"Yes, it's not the thing for a man in the capital to steal my nephew's job!"

Some people also said: "You are the leaders of the glass factory and you are all vegetarians. If you and your daughter have no way to survive, go to the factory leaders to make a decision for you. Your husband died in the factory. If someone bullies you, the factory leaders will teach them a lesson in a minute."

The young man had not yet mastered the art of cultivation and did not have a thick skin. He was so embarrassed that he had no choice but to say, "Mom, leave this job to my sister-in-law. I don't want it anymore."

Mrs. Zhang was helpless. She knew she had gone too far. If the matter got out of hand, she would not get any benefit whether she went to the factory or the police. It would be like pushing a millstone with bare buttocks and going around in circles. She knew that her daughter-in-law was weak and easy to bully, so she wanted to suppress her. As long as the people did not sue and the officials did not investigate, the matter would just pass.

Now that someone came to support Chen Huimin, she had no choice but to say to Xu Huizhen: "Then I will send the remaining pension to her tomorrow." After saying that, she turned around and left angrily.

Xu Huizhen shouted from behind: "It's reasonable to reason with you. Hitting people is illegal, and beating your daughter-in-law is not allowed. Now it's a new society, and the legal rights of women and children are protected. If you do it again next time, don't blame me for being rude. I will send you directly to the Chadian Labor Camp to reform your feudal thinking."

Everyone laughed. The old woman walked away very quickly.

Chen Huimin said to Xu Huizhen gratefully, "Big sister, I really appreciate your help, thank you!" She bowed to Xu Huizhen. Xu Huizhen was startled by her action, as if a photo was posted on the wall.

After everyone left, Xu Huizhen was about to go home. Before leaving, she told Chen Huimin: "A mother must be strong. You must stand up for your children. If they bully you again, you can go to the neighborhood committee to find me. Since I am helping you, I will help you to the end."

Chen Huimin nodded with tears in her eyes to show that she understood. Xu Huizhen added: "If your husband's job is not suitable for a woman, you can tell the factory to change his job. If you need the neighborhood committee to intervene, come and find me."

In the evening, Xu Huizhen received a reward from the system, 500 kilograms of rice and 50 kilograms of pork, which greatly encouraged Xu Huizhen's enthusiasm for meddling in other people's affairs.
