Lin Lu - a Kyoto University student with a promising future.
Song Chen - a military officer with a bright future.
Due to a life-saving grace, the two were forced to marry and have child...
"What are you two sisters talking about?"
Li Yue greeted several people one by one: "Sister Juan, Sister Xia, Sister Juxiang."
Lin Lu and Song Chen didn't know these people, so they just smiled.
The woman called Sister Juan said, "We are looking for someone to play cards. Do you want to come?"
The men over there have already opened several tables.
Li Yue waved her hands and rubbed her legs: "I don't have any money, so I'd better not come."
Lin Lu also said, "You guys go find someone else to play with. We'll go home when the rescue is over."
Sister Xia hooked Li Yue and said, "No, the night is long. Why go home? Let's play a few games before leaving."
They usually don’t have much time to get together and play, and now that they finally have some time, they want to play a few more games.
Song Chen declined politely: "The child has to go to school tomorrow, so he can't stay up too late."
Sister Juxiang: "If they don't come, then Xiaoyue, why don't you come with us? Your sister and brother-in-law are rich, right? Let them give you a few dozen dollars, enough to play until dawn."
This is said bluntly.
Li Yue's cheeks turned red with shame. She knew everything about her third aunt and two cousins. Her family also told her not to annoy Song Chen and his wife.
If she caused her two brothers to lose their jobs, she would become the sinner of the family.
Besides, Li Yue is not someone who likes to play cards, so saying that she has no money is just an excuse.
"Don't say that! My sister and brother-in-law earn money easily, and I absolutely cannot use it for this. Moreover, you know I can't beat you, but you still come to me and want to make money from me."
She said this in a joking tone, which neither made the atmosphere too tense nor rejected the three people's little thoughts.
Sister Juan sowed discord, saying, "Fine, if you don't want to come, then don't come. I think you're afraid that your husband Guangqian will see you and beat you up."
Li Yue: "Get lost, my Guangqian treats me very well and never hits me."
The three of them couldn't find anyone to sit at the table with, so they went to look elsewhere.
Li Yue was worried that Lin Lu would be angry, so she said, "Sister Lu, they were just joking, don't take it too seriously. Besides, I really don't like playing cards."
Lin Lu: "Why should I be angry? If you don't like it, just don't play it."
I like it, but I don’t have money to give you to play with it.
The gentleman's voice of chanting blessings stopped, and the rescue of suffering was over. Lin Jingbei took off the white cloth on his head and walked over with Li Xianglian.
Li Xianglian looked at Li Yue's belly and said, "Xiaoyue, you're seven or eight months pregnant, right?"
Li Yue: "It's almost seven months, aunt, it's almost there too."
Lin Jingbei had come here before and just had a meal and left, and had never met Li Yue.
Song Chen introduced him: "This is your mother's cousin, you can call her Auntie."
"Hello, auntie." Lin Jingbei called out obediently.
Li Yue smiled and said, "Jingbei has grown into a big boy."
Her husband He Guangqian also came over with his two children.
Li Yue asked her two daughters to call for help, but the children were a little shy and hid behind their parents and didn't dare to come out.
He Guangqian scratched the back of his head, smiled honestly, and explained, "I'm just too timid."
When buying vegetables just now, Lin Lu bought a handful of candies. She only remembered it now and gave two to each of the sisters.
Li Yue: "Auntie will give you some candy, thank you."
They still didn't dare to speak, so they took the candy and ran to find grandma.
Li Yue shook her head: "Girls are introverted."
Lin Lu: "It's okay, then we'll go back first."
Li Xianglian: "It's almost time for supper, why don't you eat before going back?"
She was afraid that her eldest grandson would go hungry.
Lin Lu looked at Song Chen and Lin Jingbei: "Do you want to eat?"
Both father and son looked at her. Lin Lu said, "Then eat first and go back."
I made midnight snacks with several cousins and their families, including the daughter of my third aunt.
Lin Lu didn't know about this yet, but she was just wondering why Li Mei didn't dare to look at her.
Song Chen looked natural, his eyes fixed only on her, as if nothing had happened.
The man Li Mei married for the second time was eight years older than her. He had a good temper and was decent looking. It was two years after his first wife died of complications during childbirth that he decided to find another woman to start a new life with.
I had a son with Li Mei two years ago, and our life is pretty good. Although we are not rich, we are stable and happy.
After dinner, the three of them planned to go back, but they didn’t expect Li Mei to come over.
"Lin Lu, can I talk to you?" She lowered her head and fiddled with the corner of her clothes.
Lin Lu was even more puzzled. They didn't seem to have such a deep relationship.
Even when I was a child, I had to fight for my grandmother's favor for a long time.
"What's up?"
Song Chen was already sitting astride the motorcycle. Seeing how tactless this man was, his brows furrowed into a 川 shape.
Li Mei glanced at Song Chen secretly, her voice trembling a little: "Brother-in-law, let me say a few words to Xiaolu."
"Just say it here." Song Chen was worried that this person would ruin his reputation behind his back, and he felt uneasy if he didn't listen to him in person.
Li Mei seemed to be hesitant to speak.
Song Chen was disgusted by her attitude.
"Lulu, Abei, get in the car. If she's alright, we'll leave first."
If Lin Lu couldn’t tell that the two of them were having some conflict, he would be a fool.
"Cousin, just tell me what's going on. The kids have to go to school tomorrow, and we still have to go home."
Li Mei: "Well, that is, Lin Lu, can you...can you...can you ask your brother-in-law to agree to let my brother go back to work at the brick factory."
Because of this, she never gets a good reception from her brother and sister-in-law every year when she returns to her parents' home, and her parents don't pay much attention to her.
Li Mei regretted it for several years, but she didn't dare to go to Song Chen again, fearing that he would beat her to death.
Later, when she heard that Lin Lu had woken up, she didn't dare to visit him. Until today, she watched the two of them for most of the day before she dared to have dinner with them, and now she came here to beg for mercy.
