When cousin Lin Shuang's parents passed away, she was adopted by Lin Man's parents and became the family's darling.
Lin Man, on the other hand, became the sandwiched punching bag,...
Chapter 274: Drive Out (Page 1/2)
After hearing what Liao Sijie said, Ling Fei felt a little relieved. Last night, her mother-in-law agreed to take a half-year leave to take care of her during the confinement period and help her take care of the baby.
My aunt said before that she would take time to come and take care of her after she gives birth, but Liao Sijie has not given a clear answer yet.
"Sijie, you should not be busy after the New Year, right?" Ling Fei asked tentatively.
Liao Sijie nodded and said, "Well, I should be free after visiting my parents. If you move in, I can help you with shopping, cooking, washing clothes and cleaning."
Ling Fei was delighted and quickly said, "Okay, your cousin's wife only gave you 25 yuan a month before, I will give you an additional 5 yuan.
Although Lin Jing's salary is high, aren't your parents still suffering on the island? You can only support your parents if you have money in your hands! "
When Liao Sijie heard this, her heart warmed. She looked at Ling Fei gratefully and said with a smile:
"Thank you, Feifei. But the money doesn't matter. As long as we can take care of each other and be happy, that's all that matters."
Ling Fei held Liao Sijie's hand and said seriously, "Sijie, we are all family, so it's only natural for us to help each other. Besides, you work very hard, so you deserve more money."
Liao Sijie was so moved that her eyes turned red. She knew Ling Fei had always been good to her, but she didn't expect that she would care so much about herself and her family.
She patted Ling Fei's hand gently and said, "Second cousin, you are so kind. I am really happy to have relatives like you."
The two smiled at each other, and their feelings for each other became even deeper.
Ling Fei knows that in this big family, everyone has their own responsibilities and contributions, and this atmosphere of mutual support and care makes the home more warm and beautiful.
Liao Sijie was deeply moved when she heard this. Her parents worked on an island farm and could only make ends meet.
The two younger brothers joined the Construction Corps. Although they became militiamen, they went to open up wasteland, did the hardest work, and received the lowest allowance.
"My cousin's wife really understands me. My parents are really having a hard time on the island, and I also want to earn more money to send back to them.
When my parents heard that I was getting married, they sent all my previous salary back to me, saying it was for my dowry and they didn't want a penny of the bride price.
We plan to go to the island during the Chinese New Year and bring the betrothal money back to my parents."
Ling Fei sighed, "My aunt is so nice. She actually returned all the money you earned from helping my sister-in-law take care of the children to you as a dowry.
Unlike my mother, I paid my salary from working in the art troupe every month on time. When I got married, they accepted the betrothal gift, fearing that I would ask her for a dowry.
If it weren't for my aunt and grandmother supporting me from behind, I don't think she would have even quilted me.
I don't know if I'm their child or not, why do my parents only like my older brother and sister." Ling Fei couldn't help but complain when she thought of her parents.
Liao Sijie knew that Ling Fei's parents were partial to each other. Although her parents didn't like her very much, her grandparents, uncles and aunts doted on her, and her second cousin and aunt were also very nice to her. In fact, she was luckier than her sister-in-law.
Liao Sijie asked curiously, "Second cousin, when are you planning to move in?"
Ling Fei smiled and replied, "We plan to move here before the New Year."
Liao Sijie asked suspiciously, "Why are you in such a hurry to move? Did something happen recently?"
Ling Fei took Liao Sijie's hand and whispered, "I'm telling you, don't spread rumors. I'm pregnant with two children now, and I'm always very hungry every night.
Last night, I suddenly wanted to eat noodles, so my mother-in-law took the initiative to make them for me. But when she finished making the noodles, my father-in-law and brother-in-law didn't even ask me and just shared them with me.
When Qingyan came out to serve the noodles, he discovered they had already finished eating them.
Liao Sijie responded without hesitation: "It doesn't matter if you've finished eating. You can just ask your cousin to cook another bowl. It's no big deal."

Ling Fei was stunned, with a look of grievance on her face. She said softly:
"But the problem is that they didn't respect my wishes. If they had asked me if I wanted noodles, I would have clearly refused and there would have been no conflict."
Liao Sijie nodded, agreeing with Ling Fei's point of view, and added:
"According to what you said, they should really ask you if you want to eat noodles. After all, you are pregnant with twins and your appetite is relatively large, so you are more likely to feel hungry."
When Ling Fei thought about this, she felt particularly aggrieved, "Yes, they didn't care about me at all, so I made up my mind to move out.
This way, I can choose the food I like as I please without having to worry about other people's opinions.
After I move here, we can get together anytime to chat and even go shopping at the supply and marketing cooperative together!"
Liao Sijie smiled and replied, "That's great! By the way, we plan to move and hold a banquet on the 20th day of the twelfth lunar month. I wonder when you're going to move in?"
Ling Fei thought for a moment and replied, "We need to buy some furniture first, and then see if there's an auspicious day in the near future. If there is, we'll move in as soon as possible."
The two of them chatted happily, and before they knew it, it was already morning.
Ling Fei was not in a hurry to leave, but instead enjoyed this pleasant time. After all, her parents-in-law were not at home, so she could arrange her own time freely.
Liao Sijie is simply the sister sent to her by God. She can understand everything she says.
At lunch time, Ling Fei decided to go to the cafeteria and order a delicious stir-fry.
This way, she could satisfy her taste buds while waiting for Huo Qingyan to come back from work to enjoy the food together. She was in a good mood today, and she wanted to treat herself well.
On the other side, Xiao Ya and Huo Junshan returned to the city happily with their lovely grandson Huo Yining.
They thoroughly enjoyed shopping and enthusiastically picked out various items with their grandchildren.
At noon, they chose to dine at a state-owned restaurant and take their grandson to eat the braised pork he had been craving. After dinner, they continued shopping until 3 p.m., when they finally got on the bus home, still unsatisfied.
However, after they sent Huo Yining back to the Huo family and returned to their own home, they were surprised to find that Ling Fei was not at home.
Xiao Ya said somewhat disappointedly, "Why hasn't Feifei come back yet?"
Huo Junshan didn't care. "You already know her. Even if she were at home, she wouldn't help you cook. Okay, I'll cook. You take a good rest."
Xiao Ya tried to make up for it, "I can't possibly let her go to work while she's pregnant. It would be terrible if something happens to the baby in her belly."
Huo Junshan shook his head. "You, you, if you continue to indulge her, you will regret it sooner or later."
"Why should I regret it? I don't need her to take care of me when I'm old. They young people can live their own lives, and we can live ours.
We have three sons and three daughters-in-law, so there must be one who is filial, and Manman is very filial."
"Haha, it seems that honest people always suffer. You must not let Qingci hear this, otherwise he will think that we are deliberately trying to bully his wife.
Xiao Man is a good girl. She has no parents, so we should love her more instead of asking her to do more because she is capable."
Xiao Ya agreed, "Xiao Man is a good child."
Perhaps because of her pregnancy, Ling Fei felt particularly sleepy and slept until five in the afternoon before slowly waking up.
After waking up, Ling Fei was not in a hurry to go home, but rushed to her grandmother's house without stopping. She wanted to complain to her grandmother about the bad things that happened to her in the Huo family.
