In her previous life, Old Lady Li toiled her entire life for her family. She raised three children and brought up her grandchildren, never enjoying a single day of peace. Yet, her sacrifices were n...
Qin Ye had finished his lunch and was reviewing in the store when two car horns interrupted his review.
He got up and walked to the door, then saw a truck.
"Hey Qin Ye." He Shuai got out of the passenger seat and waved at Qin Ye.
"Brother He, what are you doing?" Qin Ye walked to the car.
He Shuai smiled and said, "Aunt Li ordered some furniture from our factory again and asked me to deliver it."
Qin Ye: Furniture?
Needless to say, it was definitely bought for him.
In fact, the beds and cabinets in his house are still usable and there is no need to buy new ones.
Qin Ye, He Shuai and the delivery driver moved the furniture into the compartment in the backyard. The new furniture looked quite presentable once it was placed in.
After seeing off He Shuai and the driver, Qin Ye returned to the small compartment. Looking at the new bed, new wardrobe and new desk inside, his eyes gradually became red.
This was the first time in his life that he had a complete room.
He will definitely work hard to get into a good school, earn a lot of money to repay his mother, and also take care of Xiaoyu as if she were his own sister.
As for Li Yunshu, after she arrived at the state-owned store, she bought a quilt, a mattress, and a four-piece set.
I also bought cotton fabrics in four different colors and patterns.
The weather was getting colder, so she made some warm and comfortable home clothes for her family. This type of home clothes became very popular in some provinces a few years later and was nicknamed "provincial clothes" by people.
She also tore off some light-blocking curtain fabrics. After the curtain fabrics were pulled, she directly asked a master craftsman from the tailor shop next door to use a sewing machine to make curtains that could be threaded with ropes.
After finishing, Li Yunshu rode his bicycle with a lot of things tied to the back seat back to the dumpling shop.
Lin Yongnian felt a little unwell all day. He always felt sore in his limbs and his head was a little dizzy, as if he had caught a cold.
When the workshop director was inspecting the workshop, he saw that he was not in good condition, so he asked him to go to the factory clinic to see a doctor and get some medicine. If he was not feeling well, he could go home and rest, and his salary would not be deducted.
Last week, there was a four or five-year-old worker in their workshop who was also feeling unwell but forced himself to go to work. He then fainted in the workshop.
The factory doctor couldn't see him, so he was taken to the hospital in the factory car. Fortunately, he was taken there in time, because any later he would have been in danger of death.
The factory director gave an order, asking them to patrol the workshop more often. If they found any workers feeling unwell, they should give them leave and let them go home to rest, so as not to force the workers to go to work.
Lin Yongnian thanked the workshop director and then went to tell Lin Guodong.
"Guodong, Dad feels a little unwell. He seems to have caught a cold. I'm going to the infirmary to get some medicine and then I'll pick up Junjun and go home."
Lin Guodong was welding and nodded with his mask on. "Okay, you can go back."
Lin Yongnian glanced at his son who didn't even raise his head, curled his lips, and turned away.
He felt that Lin Guodong, as a son, didn't care much about him as a father.
No one asked him why he felt uncomfortable.
Lin Yongnian went to the infirmary to get some medicine, then went to the nursery to pick up his grandson Junjun and took him home.
When they reached the intersection, several trucks passed by, and Lin Yongnian stopped, holding Junjun's hand.
"Creaky." A bicycle stopped next to them.
Lin Yongnian subconsciously turned his head to take a look, then his pupils trembled and he was stunned.
It’s Li Shuping!
She was riding a bicycle, one foot on the pedal, the other foot on the ground, staring intently at the trucks whizzing past.
She looked full of energy, with fair skin, rosy complexion, and rouge on her lips. Her permed hair was tied up in a bun, and she was wearing a beige dress with good texture. She looked bright and beautiful, and a lot younger.
She was still the same person, but she seemed to have undergone a complete transformation, becoming a completely different person.
Lin Yongnian couldn't even associate her with the simple, frugal, honest and virtuous woman she used to be.
Was this woman really Lin Yongnian's wife?
Li Yunshu waited for the truck to pass and then turned, but while waiting, she noticed someone was looking at her. She turned her head and met Lin Yongnian's gaze.
Lin Yongnian was wearing dirty work clothes, and half of his hair was white. His hair had grown long but he hadn't trimmed it, so it looked a little messy on his head.
His face had sagged even more, with bags under his eyes almost reaching the tip of his nose. He had an untidy beard and looked listless, slovenly, and somewhat depressed.
"Heh..." Seeing him like this, Li Yunshu couldn't help but sneer.
Lin Yongnian used to say that he wanted to see how she would live without him, but now it is obvious that he is the one who is not living well.
Lin Yongnian interpreted this laughter as a mockery, and his face immediately turned red with anger.
Of course, his understanding was not wrong.
"What are you laughing at?" Lin Yongnian asked in a low voice with a red face.
Li Yunshu rolled his eyes at him and said, "Is it even necessary to ask if it's so obvious?"
Of course I laughed at him.
Lin Yongnian was furious. "Li Shuping, aren't you just making a little money from running a shop? What's so great about you?"
Li Yunshu: "I am amazing. If you have the ability, you can earn it too. You can live the same life as me!"
Lin Yongnian gritted his teeth and said, "I'm just paying off my foreign debt now. When I pay it off, my life won't be any worse than yours."
"I still have my filial son Guodong by my side. He will take care of me when I am old. But you will just be left alone and helpless when you are old."
Li Yunshu sneered and shook his head. "That's hard to say. Lin Guodong is filial, but why are you so thin, old, and slovenly now? I'm not saying anything, but Lin Yongnian, you look at least five years older now than before you divorced me."
"You are at home now and no one washes your clothes, no one tidies up your room, and you eat an extra piece of meat at dinner. You all have to rely on your daughter-in-law's mood, right?"
“…” Lin Yongnian choked. She had actually predicted everything.
It was true that no one washed his clothes or cleaned his room. When they ate meat at home, he only took two bites with his chopsticks, and Zhang Jiao's face fell.
"That's not true. When did I, Lin Yongnian, need to look at my daughter-in-law's face?" Lin Yongnian denied it with cloudy eyes.
Li Yunshu smiled and said, "Whether it's true or not, you know it in your heart. Apart from anything else, Xiaoyu is definitely more conscientious than Lin Guodong, and she will definitely be filial to me as a mother in the future."
Lin Yongnian: "No matter how conscientious or filial she is, she is still married into another family. When she has her own family and her own parents-in-law to support her, will she still be able to care about you?"
Haha, Lin Yongnian sneered in his heart. He really thought that Li Shuping was a very naive woman.
Li Yunshu: "Then why don't I find her a live-in son-in-law? To be honest, I can't bear to see such a good daughter like Xiaoyu marry into another family and be bullied."
That’s right, just have a son-in-law who lives with the family. It’s great to have a son-in-law who lives with the family.
“…”
Lin Yongnian was immediately speechless by her.
