Opening her eyes, Chen Hong was reborn. She was reborn just before she was about to take her children back to her parents' home. Not wanting to live a life of looking at others' faces for a...
"I'm beautiful, rich, and have a job. What kind of woman wouldn't I date? If you push me too far, we'll fight to the death! I'm not afraid of you!"
Unbeknownst to Chen Hong, the stack of property certificates she produced became the catalyst for the falling out between Duan and Liu, further provoking Liu and causing her and Duan to break off their relationship even earlier, leading the situation to follow the trajectory of her previous life.
Chen Hong slept soundly through the night. The next morning, she ate breakfast on the street, hailed a taxi, and arrived home forty minutes later.
My older brother went out to work as a truck driver, while my parents stayed home. My little niece is nine months old now, chubby and incredibly cute.
Chen Hong took the baby and hugged him, but unexpectedly, she got a surprise – her breast milk sprayed all over her!
Chen Hong secretly regretted that she had forgotten the lessons of her past life. Her sister-in-law had an exceptionally abundant milk supply this time.
When feeding a baby, with one breast in the baby's mouth, the other breast sprays milk out like a showerhead, so much so that you can't cover it with your hand. You have to keep a towel handy at all times, and even then, the towel gets soaked.
If the milk supply is too abundant, the baby often chokes and makes "gagging" or burping sounds. Even after being patted to burp, milk will still occasionally spray out of the baby's mouth like a fountain.
My sister-in-law has an abundant milk supply, and my little niece has suffered quite a bit, yet the child still grows up to be exceptionally chubby. Chen Hong knows that this little niece will grow up to be incredibly smart, with a sweet tongue that can charm anyone to death.
The father adores his little granddaughter, carrying her around all day. As long as he's not out working, he picks her up from kindergarten and elementary school, and he's incredibly indulgent towards her, buying her whatever she wants.
This child is heartless. Her grandfather was inconvenient in his last few years, and she was already in junior high school at that time. She disliked the old man because he was dirty and smelly, and kept her distance. She wouldn't help him at all. Just like her parents, she's an ingrate.
In her past life, when she was young, Chen Hong was able to work and earn money. She loved her fair-skinned little niece very much and bought her plenty of food and clothes.
Later, when her health deteriorated and she could no longer work, she lived in a neighborhood, but her husband never visited her once a year, not even during the Lunar New Year.
Holding this child who doesn't understand anything yet in her arms, Chen Hong's feelings were very complicated. To be honest, she really couldn't bring herself to like him.
After changing her clothes, Chen Hong washed and hung the soiled clothes to dry. The temperature was relatively high now, so they should be dry by the time she left in the afternoon.
The mother was always helping her daughter-in-law take care of the child, cleaning, washing diapers, and cooking, and didn't have time to sit down and talk to Chen Hong.
Chen Hong and her father didn't have much to say to each other. They sat in the courtyard, with a teapot on the incense table, and chatted while drinking tea.
"Dad, you didn't go out to work this year, did you? How are you feeling now?"
Dad said with a smile, "When old customers come to me, I go and make furniture for them or do home renovations. I don't deliberately look for work on construction sites."
Don't worry, I feel particularly healthy this year. I didn't let your mom give away the honey and food you sent; we both ate them.
Didn't you see that your mom's complexion is much better? She's not complaining about backaches and leg pains anymore.
"Yu Yang should be starting first grade this year, right? Is Xiao Hao's mom still picking him up and dropping him off?"
Chen Hong was relieved. "Dad, don't be stingy with your food. Call me when you're done, and I'll mail you more. Taking care of your health is more important than saving money. At your age, money can't buy good health."
Yu Yang is doing well in school. Why don't you come back to Rongcheng with me this time? Yu Yang misses you too. The small inn at home has been handed over to the village chief and the others to manage. I'm often out at sea and don't have time to look after it."
Dad shook his head. "I can't go this year. I just bought your brother a car, and he's really making money right now. I have to stay home and watch over him."
Once he's completely settled down, and I'm too old to work anymore, I'll go stay at your place for a couple more years.
Now you and Yu Yang can be apart from others. Village Chief Wang and his wife are good people, so get along well with them.
If you get along well with these two people, they're much better than your father-in-law; they know their place. With them around, you won't be ostracized in Yujia Village.
Chen Hong nodded as she listened to her father's teachings, and the two of them started chatting about their relatives.
My second uncle's family has reconciled with my family and they visit each other frequently now. My third uncle's eldest cousin is married and has children, and his youngest cousin has been admitted to university.
My aunt's health hasn't been very good in recent years. She doesn't have any major illnesses, but she's always getting minor ailments. Her second daughter is also taking the college entrance exam this year.
My second uncle's eldest daughter found a boyfriend and got married. The couple are both good-for-nothings; they're not sons-in-law who live with their wives' families, but they both frequently stay at my second uncle's house.
The youngest daughter is quite capable. The couple bought a large truck and transported sand and gravel to construction sites in Jinan. They earned a lot, but spent even more.
Construction sites often hold onto money, and we have to go out every day to collect debts; life is quite hectic.
My second uncle and his wife are also in poor health, and my father spoke of them with deep concern.
