Chapter 337: Li Guimei, who did not want to be a widow, despised and carefully cared for
"When did the doctor say that? Why didn't I hear it?"
Peng Shuangcheng's face turned dark. He fainted because he ate too poorly. He didn't want to drink tasteless porridge. He just wanted to eat meat.
"You're unconscious, of course you can't hear me. If you don't believe me, ask the doctor yourself when he comes to check on you later!"
Li Guimei ignored him and started eating. She was busy all morning and her stomach was full of hunger.
The blood-soaked duck was fresh and fragrant. Li Guimei ate it with gusto. The whole ward was filled with the sound of her chewing and the aroma of the food, which made Peng Shuangcheng even hungrier.
Li Rong found it funny. People like Peng Shuangcheng need to be treated like Li Guimei. There is always a way around it.
After finishing her meal, Li Guimei went to the bathroom to wash the lunch box and gave it to Li Rong to take back. She then went to a restaurant outside to buy some white porridge and brought it back to the ward for Peng Shuangcheng to eat.
After Li Rong returned home, he told Luo Xinxin about Peng Shuangcheng's illness.
"Cirrhosis of the liver? My grandfather is good at treating this!"
Luo Xinxin blurted out that Luo Weian was best at internal medicine and had cured many patients with cirrhosis in Shanghai before.
"Remember to tell Sister Li that she probably doesn't want to be a widow." Li Rong said.
"become!"
Luo Xinxin agreed. She was not saving Peng Shuangcheng, but Li Guimei.
A week later, Peng Shuangcheng was discharged from the hospital. He looked well, and it was obvious that Li Guimei took good care of him.
His current health condition prevents him from overworking, so the military district asked him to temporarily switch to civilian work. Although Peng Shuangcheng was unwilling, he had no choice but to accept it. It was his own fault because his health was not good enough!
After being discharged from the hospital, Peng Shuangcheng's temper improved a lot and he no longer yelled at home because the doctor warned him that anger would damage the liver and he must control his temper.
Although Li Guimei looked down on him, she still took care of him wholeheartedly, cooking for him separately every day, keeping his diet light and nutritious.
She also took Peng Shuangcheng to the farm and asked Luo Weian to prescribe medicine. She boiled the medicine on time every day to ensure that the man would get better soon. She also wanted to have a baby!
That day, Li Guimei brought a pair of insoles and came to visit the Li family.
Luo Xinxin noticed that the insole was a little small, not like an adult's, so she asked with a smile, "Preparing shoes for a child so early? But these should be worn by ten years old, right?"
"I made it for Chunlan. I think the soles of her shoes are worn out."
Li Guimei rubbed the awl on her head a few times, inserted it into the sole of her shoe neatly, and then pulled it.
"Made for Peng Chunlan? Have you seen that child?" Luo Xinxin looked surprised.
"Sister Xiang brought three children to see Old Peng. All three children are very sensible and good children." Li Guimei spoke highly of the three sisters. Peng Shuangcheng was blinded by greed and abandoned these three good children. He will regret it in the future.
She added, "Sister Xiang is a very nice person. I talked to her. It was always Old Peng's fault before."
"That's right, it's all because of Peng Shuangcheng's inhumanity."
Luo Xinxin agreed very much. If Peng Shuangcheng was a decent person, he would never divorce his second sister.
She was also very pleased that Li Guimei and Xiang Ermei could get along harmoniously, probably because they were both very good people?
"Sister Xiang is living a good life now. I envy her."
Li Guimei sighed. If she could have a job, she would definitely not marry again.
It’s so great to work hard and earn money to support yourself!
"Sister Luo, if only I had met you earlier, I would have shamelessly asked you to arrange for me to work on the farm so I wouldn't have to get married." Li Guimei said with regret.
"I'll find you a job in the city later."
Luo Xinxin smiled and promised that although there were not many job opportunities in the county, there were still some if she squeezed in, and she would look for opportunities later.
"Temporary work is fine. I'm not afraid of hard work or fatigue. I can do any job."
Li Guimei was ecstatic. If she could get a job, she would be able to stand taller and be more confident in front of Peng Shuangcheng.
"Wait until I give birth to the baby."
Luo Xinxin smiled. Finding a job was nothing to her. She liked Li Guimei's personality very much and would help if she could.
Soon it was February, and Luo Xinxin's body became heavier. She had difficulty turning over in bed. Luo Weian was worried about her and took leave to stay with her. He took her pulse every day to ensure a smooth delivery.
In late February, Luo Xinxin got up and washed as usual. Li Guimei made breakfast. She was now too heavy to work, Li Rong's cooking was not tasty, and the nanny that Zhi Hongxia helped find had some emergency and would not be able to come for a while.
Li Guimei saw this and would come to help every day. Luo Xinxin simply asked her to help temporarily, mainly buying groceries and cooking, and paid her 15 yuan a month.
Li Guimei felt it was too much and only wanted half, but Luo Xinxin insisted, so she accepted it. She was planning to make small clothes and shoes for the two children and couldn't take such a big advantage.
"I'm going to work. Call me if you need anything."
Li Rong would give this instruction every day before going to work.
"Comrade Li, don't worry. I will definitely take good care of Sister Luo." Li Guimei promised.
Luo Xinxin asked her to just call him Xiao Li, and not Deputy Captain Li, but she felt that calling him Xiao Li was too casual, so she changed it to Comrade Li.
Luo Weian also made a promise, allowing Li Rong to go to work with peace of mind.
After sitting at home for a while, Luo Xinxin went for a walk outside. The doctor said that walking more would help with childbirth, and she didn't want to have a caesarean section.
Today's caesarean section technology is a bit crude, leaving ugly scars on the belly, and looking in the mirror will affect your mood.
Li Guimei accompanied her for a walk. Zhi Hongxia came out of her house and met them. She felt a little embarrassed.
"Sister-in-law Zhi, have you had breakfast?"
Luo Xinxin took the initiative to say hello. Zhi Hongxia didn't dare to see her these days. Maybe she felt that she hadn't done anything good and felt ashamed?
It’s actually nothing. No one can predict emergencies, so there’s no need to feel guilty.
"I just ate, Xiao Luo... I'm so sorry, I didn't do this well... Sigh!"
Zhi Hongxia felt even more upset. Xiao Luo had arranged a job for his son, but she couldn't even handle such a small matter. Now Xiao Luo needed someone by his side, but she was failing.
She originally wanted to go and help, but Xiao Luo did not agree. Later she thought about it and felt that it was indeed inappropriate. It was okay for her, but others would gossip, which would have a bad influence on Xiao Luo. Fortunately, Li Guimei was there.
"No one wants an emergency to happen, so don't blame yourself too much, Sister Zhi. By the way, is your relative okay?"
Luo Xinxin changed the subject and didn't want to talk about it anymore.
Zhi Hongxia looked unhappy, so she simply accompanied them for a walk.
"She's my cousin, ten years younger than me. She's been a very obedient person since she was little. You can't beat her with a stick. She's the second child in the family. My uncle and aunt only care about their sons. They don't care about me, their cousin, and they don't let her go to school. They just make her work like a slave at home. They married her off at the age of seventeen."
"That man is from the next village. His whole family is lazy and gluttonous. They have a bad temper and beat people up if they're not satisfied. After my cousin got married, she continued to work like a slave to support the whole family. She did the most work but ate the worst. She's only in her thirties, but she looks older than me. She's completely human."
Speaking of this poor cousin, Zhi Hongxia sighed repeatedly. She seldom went back to her parents' home after she got married. She went back last year and saw her skinny cousin. She almost didn't recognize her.
