"Wife, don't take that old woman's words to heart."

"I certainly don't take it to heart."

She had been scolded at Old Sun's house before, so she had become accustomed to blocking out bad words.

"Tomorrow I want to go weed the fields with my mother."

"Okay, let's go out and take a few more steps to exercise."

It’s not a good idea to stay indoors all day long. You should move around more.

Li Mingqing thought about taking her to the county town for a prenatal check-up when he had time.

The next day.

After Li Mingqing went to work, Sun Jiaxue went to see Old Lady Li wearing a straw hat.

"Jiaxue, why are you here?"

"Mom, I'll come and do it for a while. I have nothing to do at home."

Old Lady Li specifically asked her to weed under the shade of the tree, and everyone was envious when they saw this.

Old Lady Xu put on her eye drops and said, "Marrying a daughter-in-law is not like marrying an ancestor. Look at how servile my daughter-in-law has been trained by me."

Wang Dahua stood in the sun with her head bowed and her eyes drooping, swinging a hoe.

Xu Dagou squatted there pulling out the weeds on the ridge of the field.

The child was left under the tree to play by himself, with Old Lady Xu supervising the entire process.

"We've been in the same village for so many years, but let me remind you that you'll still have to rely on your daughter-in-law when you get old."

"What a joke! How can anyone rely on someone as stupid as her?"

"When we are old and can't move, won't we need someone to bring us water and food?"

"I have a son and I'm counting on her."

Old Lady Xu said this with disdain.

Zhang Chunya said, "My son, he can't cook or wash clothes."

She had discussed this matter with Old Lady Li before. She didn't ask for support for her daughter-in-law, but just to treat her well.

Everyone has their share of troubles in life, so why bother making things unhappy?

How could he not hate his daughter-in-law when she was being treated so harshly?

"I know my son, he's very filial to me. My daughter-in-law, Wang Dahua, is probably hoping I'll die soon."

She had also hoped that her mother-in-law would die soon.

Yang Daya carried Siniu over and placed her under the shade of a tree, while Xiangnan watched from the side.

The children in the village all looked at the younger ones, one after another.

This was the first time that the girl went to the fields, and her big round eyes couldn't see everything.

This was the first time Yang Daya went out of the field since she gave birth.

She was bored at home, so she might as well go to the fields to do some work and earn some work points.

In town.

When Li Mingqing was about to get off work, he saw Yuan Jingshan and Yan Xingguo coming in talking and laughing.

Zhou Yingzi said, "Sister Zhao, this is my boss."

Several people introduced themselves to each other.

Yan Xingguo said, "Comrade Li, don't go back. Let's go to the restaurant next door to eat."

"No, you guys go eat, I'm going home."

"I don't even need you to pay for dinner, but you still don't go. I really don't know what you're thinking."

"You should buy some food and go back to accompany Auntie."

Yuan Jingshan and Yan Xingguo can be said to have grown up together, so they know him quite well.

I know he is used to speaking without restraint and he needs to suffer a little to correct this bad habit.

Li Mingqing was not like the people in the commune who praised Yan Xingguo.

He turned around and went to the restaurant next door to order food to take home.

Yuan Jingshan said, "Yingzi, I'm going to the restaurant first and will come over after get off work."

"Okay, you go first."

That’s great! I can eat out at restaurants more often in the future. The food is delicious and I don’t have to cook it myself.

Seeing her happy look, Zhao Xiaoling said, "That's great. Live a good life from now on."

"Of course."

Li Mingqing watched the people coming and going outside bored.

A man sneaked around a little boy and then walked away again after a few minutes.

Next to the little boy is an old woman, probably his grandmother.

The man took out two pieces of White Rabbit milk candy and handed them to the child.

Something is wrong. He looks like a human trafficker.

The old woman was sitting in the shade of a tree, not noticing anything, and was happily chatting with the person next to her.

The little boy opened the White Rabbit milk candy and was about to eat it when Li Mingqing knocked it away.

I'm afraid there's drugs on this candy.

Zhao Xiaoling and Zhou Yingzi stood at the door, confused as to what was going on, watching his amazing move.

"Wow……"

The little boy cried deafeningly as he looked at the candy that fell on the ground.

The old woman who had been chatting with him looked at the little boy who was crying fiercely and comforted him, "My dear grandson, don't cry. Your crying is breaking your heart."

When the man saw Li Mingqing, he ran away as if nothing had happened.

Li Mingqing blocked his way and said, "Why are you running? Don't you still have a piece of candy in your hand? The child is crying loudly, take it out quickly."

"Who are you? What does this have to do with you?"

"Grandma~, sugar."

The old woman said, "I just ate one piece at home. You can't eat so much candy, or your teeth will be damaged."

Hearing this, you can tell that they are not short of anything.

Li Mingqing said, "Auntie, this man is acting suspiciously. I suspect he's a human trafficker."

The man struggled desperately. If a human trafficker is caught, the punishment will be severe.

The old woman panicked for a moment and then said calmly, "Let's go to the police station."

"Auntie, I just like children. I gave your grandson a candy because he was so cute. I don't know where this person came from. Not only did he knock away the candy, but he also refused to let me go. Auntie, I'm a good person."

The old woman said, "You'll know the truth after you go to the police station."

Li Mingqing originally wanted to talk the man down, but the other party was willing to go to the police station, which saved him a lot of trouble.

The man kept struggling, and Li Mingqing lost his patience and hit him on the neck.

He fell down limply.

The old woman said, "Thank you for what you did today. If it weren't for you, I'm afraid my grandson would have been kidnapped."
