Reborn as a Weak Beauty Pampered by All novel Chapter 647

Chapter 647: Chapter 647: Looking for Trouble

"Do I want to hold it in? Every time I ask you for money, you either say you don’t have any or accuse me of always asking for money. Being accused like that, don’t you think I have any self-respect?"

Su Qing’s heart grew heavier as she spoke: "I’ve been sent down to this village for more than two years, and I’ve often heard the old folks say, ’marry a man and you’ll be clothed and fed,’ but how have you treated me? And why should I have to live so repressed?"

Sitting up, Su Qing slapped Zhou Weimin hard twice on the body, her face now streaming with tears.

"Can’t you just settle down?" Zhou Weimin couldn’t lie down any longer with all the commotion, his temper flaring. He angrily threw off the coarse blanket covering him, sat up, and looked coldly at Su Qing: "Have I starved you or left you naked?"

Su Qing: "Have you ever bought me a new piece of clothing since we got married?"

"Can’t you buy it yourself?"

The house was not soundproof, and to avoid waking others and especially their son, Zhou Weimin kept his voice low no matter how uncomfortable he felt inside.

"How can I buy it with no money?"

Su Qing also suppressed her emotions, her voice full of pain and indignation.

"Fine, from now on I’ll set aside ten yuan a month from my salary for you." Zhou Weimin knew his mother well, and unless it was for household expenses, not a cent that landed in her hands would be leaked out.

But then again, he had given a whopping two hundred yuan as a bride price when he married the woman before him.

And they hadn’t even been married for two years. She hadn’t seemed to buy much on a daily basis, so where had the money gone? Zhou Weimin was puzzled but didn’t feel like asking Su Qing for a detailed account.

"Didn’t I agree to give you ten yuan each month? Don’t be too greedy. As for you saying my mother grinds you down, it all comes down to my mother making you cook, wash, and work, but which daughter-in-law doesn’t do these things?"

What about city people? Don’t they eat daily and wear clothes?

If they need to eat and wear clothes, and don’t cook or wash themselves, should they expect to be served like the young ladies of the large households before liberation, attended by maids and nursemaids?

"But every time it’s me washing clothes for the whole family..."

Before being sent down to the countryside, she only washed her own clothes at home, occasionally adding a couple of her parents’ garments to the basin. When had she ever washed for the entire family?

Even after coming to Aoli Village to join the work brigade, before she married into the Zhou Family, she only ever washed her own clothes,
