"I have nothing to eat. I'm starving."

Lu Anjian's face turned pale and his legs were shaking as he walked.

Lu Anxin said unhappily, "Eat, eat, eat. All you do all day is eat. There's some multi-grain porridge in the pot. Go have some!"

Since he started working in the fields, Lu Anjian ate more and more every day, while Lu Anxin often did not have enough to eat, and she became more and more dissatisfied with her brother.

Lu Anjian was so angry that he slammed the table. "Who are you talking to? You've been eating free meals at home all day long, and you've got lice all over your body. And you still have the nerve to complain that I eat too much? I'd rather have a dog than an ungrateful person like you!!"

Lu Anxin was also furious: "You still have the nerve! You are also educated, and now you work here like a peasant every day. Look at you, you are so useless!"

"You have a lot of potential, why didn't you stay in the city? Not only do you live a life of idleness at home, you don't even have the ability to find a man. Look at Lu Xue, she's hooked up with a man from the city and is about to go out and enjoy life in the city. If you have half of her ability, there's no need to be here making sarcastic remarks!"

This really touched Lu Anxin's sore spot. She was like a weasel whose tail was stepped on. She ran out in anger.

Li Cuihua was a little worried and wanted to chase after him.

Lu Anjian stopped her, "Mom, let her go! Besides, I'm the backbone of the family. You'll have to rely on me for your retirement. She doesn't look like a capable person."

Li Cuihua sat down and said, "Your sister is also worried. Lu Xue is not as pretty as her, and she is not well educated, but she still managed to find such a good man and accepted a 500 yuan betrothal gift!"

When Lu Anjian heard this, his eyes lit up.

He licked his lips and said, "They say girls can't stay at home when they grow up. Mom, Anxin can't find a job now. Let's go to the city and ask around. We can marry her off as soon as possible. In exchange for a betrothal gift, it can also improve our family's situation."

Li Cuihua also coveted Lu Xue's betrothal gift: "Who should we go to?"

"My dad has been in the city for so many years, he should know some well-off city people! Besides, my sister is educated and pretty, and she's a virgin, so what's wrong with her? When the time comes, find a city son-in-law, and maybe he can help me transfer to a job and let me go to the city!"

The more Li Cuihua thought about it, the more she felt it was appropriate.

"Don't worry, I'll go to the city tomorrow and make sure this is done!"

On this side, Gu Qingning’s belly was already round from eating so much.

The remaining dishes were not wasted and basically all went into Lu Changqing's stomach.

After finally coming to the county town, and thinking of buying some things for the baby in their belly, the two of them went to the supply and marketing cooperative. The goods there were quite complete, and they could also buy some toys for babies.

Gu Qingning took a fancy to a small rattle.

The rattle is very beautiful, handmade and very delicate.

She was about to pay for it when she saw a familiar figure.

"Isn't that Boss Lu?"

Gu Qingning immediately pulled Lu Changqing aside, and the two hid in the dark, secretly observing each other.

There is another woman next to Boss Lu, who is in her thirties, well-maintained and very charming.

"Now we're going to have a good show. Li Cuihua is definitely not willing to stay in the countryside forever. She'll have to go to the city sooner or later. Seeing this scene will make her so angry that she will die!"

Lu Changqing's eyes were deep, and it was obvious that he had known it for a long time.

"That's just his character. If you want to watch a show, I can bring you here!"

Gu Qingning hugged her man again and kissed him, "I knew you were the best to me. Other men would control their wives and not let them look around, but you're so good. Not only do you let me look, you even watch with me!"

In the final analysis, it's all dog-eat-dog, and it's a matter of both parties getting hurt.

It's a waste not to watch it.

The Lu family has done so many excessive things to their men, but she is not such a saint. She not only wants to watch the show, but also wants to find ways to add fuel to the fire.

Boss Lu is usually very stingy, but unexpectedly he is quite generous to his mistress and even bought a ring for this woman.

If I'm not mistaken, it's silver.

After the two of them left, Lu Changqing also went over there: "How about buying you a ring?"

"I don't need these things. Buy me some nourishing food."

In modern times, what has she not worn, gold, silver, and jade?

It's no longer rare.

Lu Changqing didn't say anything, but just stayed behind her silently. The two of them went to buy a lot of nourishing medicines, all of which were beneficial to pregnant women. They even bought a small amount of milk powder, which was a rare tonic.

Gu Qingning had morning sickness and a poor appetite, so Lu Changqing bought her some hawthorn cake so she could eat a piece whenever she felt uncomfortable.

"Let's go, it's getting late, we should go back!"

Women often have no restraint when they go shopping.

Although there is nothing really good here, living in the village, there are too few things and the news is isolated.

As soon as she arrived here, Gu Qingning was actually a little dazzled and almost forgot the time.

The two of them rode back in a hurry.

When they met an ox cart returning to the village on the way, Gu Qingning wanted to get off and prepare to ride the cart back.

"It's okay, you're not heavy, sit on it!"

Although Lu Changqing has nothing else, he still has strength.

"When we came here, we didn't have all these bags, so it was easy. Now it's too tiring. Besides, the oxcart is slower and more stable, so I feel more comfortable sitting there."

Only then did Lu Changqing agree and paid her to sit on it.

He himself rode a bicycle and followed slowly behind the ox cart.

The aunt smiled and said, "Look at you two singing in unison, how sweet!"

Gu Qingning also smiled brightly, and at the same time took out a few pieces of sesame candy from her pocket and distributed them to the aunts on the ox cart.

The aunts' mouths became sweeter after eating the candy.

Gu Qingning led the women in the village to make clothes to supplement the family income. All of these women were grateful to her and they always said good things about her.

Now she is so grateful for the favor she gets from others that her aunts praise her like a flower.

Even though Gu Qingning was naturally thick-skinned, she couldn't stand such praise.

"Auntie!"

When they arrived at the village entrance, they happened to see Li Huan's mother. Gu Qingning quickly greeted her and changed the subject.

"Where have you been?" Li's mother also greeted her with a smile.

Gu Qingning quickly got out of the car.

Mother Li also handed her the chicken soup in her hand: "Thank you for taking care of our Xiao Huan. This is not a good thing. I stewed chicken soup for you. If you don't mind, try it!"

Gu Qingning accepted it with great joy: "This is so delicious! Thank you, auntie. I haven't eaten home-cooked food in a long time. I'm glad that you love me!"

The smile on Li's mother's face became brighter and brighter.

"You've made a great friend and found a great matchmaker!"
