Chapter 85: Almost Slipped



"Erhua, be good and eat." Guo Jiaming looked at Erhua with a smile.

Guo Jiaming likes his younger sister very much. She is very well-behaved and sensible, and she calls him brother sweetly.

Dahua was standing at the door watching the three of them eating canned food in a warm atmosphere, and she felt very angry.

Erhua, this damn girl, only knows how to please people. Now their family of four feels like a family, and she feels like an outsider.

Zheng Lili saw Dahua at the door and said with a smile, "Dahua, come in. I made a dress for you a while ago. Come in and try it on to see if it fits. If it doesn't, I can make some alterations."

"You can still make clothes for me?" Dahua asked in disbelief, wondering why this bad woman was so nice to her.

Zheng Lili turned around and took out the dress she made for Dahua from the cabinet. It was a red dress. Both Dahua and Erhua were red.

Dahua hasn't worn new clothes for a long time, and she was so excited when she saw this dress.

Zheng Lili is very good at making clothes. The stitches are dense and strong, and the clothes look beautiful.

Dahua walked over and tried on the dress. Zheng Lili looked at her and said, "What do you think? It looks like a good fit to me."

"It's okay." Dahua said reluctantly. She would never tell this bad woman that she liked this dress.

Zheng Lili smiled and said nothing.

She has been married for so long, but she has never had a good talk with Dahua.

"Jiaming, take Erhua sister out first."

"Mom..." Guo Jiaming was unwilling.

"Go ahead."

Guo Jiaming had no choice but to take Erhua out reluctantly.

Only Dahua and Zheng Lili were left in the room.

Zheng Lili said to Dahua, "Dahua, I know you don't like me, but we are a family now. If you have any problems, you can tell me and I will take care of you. I don't expect you to treat me as your real mother, but at least we can get along well."

"I will treat you the same way I treated Erhua. Besides, I'm not taking your father away. I'm just giving you one more person to take care of you."

Zheng Lili's gentle and persuasive tone prevented Dahua from saying anything unpleasant for a while.

She is already a grown-up girl, not a child who knows nothing.

Although she still disliked Zheng Lili, she was also aware of one fact.

If she continues to go against this woman, her father will not let her off easily.

"I understand." Dahua said just this and turned away.

But for Zheng Lili, this is enough.

A harmonious family is the key to success. Even if we cannot love each other, we should at least live in harmony.

Besides, she is pregnant now, so she needs to have a peaceful life.

Zheng Lili didn't sleep well the whole night because Erhua had a fever last night.

Now she still has to cook for the family during the day.

I felt dizzy in the kitchen and was about to fall down.

Fortunately, Second Brother Gu happened to come in and supported her.

"What's wrong, wife?" Brother Gu carried Zheng Lili into the house.

After lying down for a while, Zheng Lili recovered and said, "I'm fine. I just didn't sleep well last night and I feel a little dizzy."

After hearing this, Brother Gu quickly went to find some brown sugar at home and made her a cup of brown sugar water.

"Drink something quickly. Didn't you get much sleep last night? Why didn't you tell me?" Brother Gu frowned and said.

"I don't think it's anything serious." Zheng Lili smiled.

Second Brother Gu thought about when Third Sister Lin gave birth to Erhua, and sometimes she was unwilling to feed Erhua even a sip of milk, even though that was her biological mother.

As a result, Zheng Lili, the stepmother, did not sleep all night because of her fever. Brother Gu couldn't tell how he felt, but he felt more and more sorry for Zheng Lili.

Zheng Lili took a nap on the kang, and when she woke up she found that she had some spotting.

"Jingxi! Jingxi!" Zheng Lili screamed in fright.

"What's wrong? What's wrong?" Brother Gu ran in with a shovel.

"...I'm bleeding." Zheng Lili was so scared that her face turned pale.

Second Brother Gu was also very scared, and he carried Zheng Lili to the village clinic.

The village doctor took a look and said, "It's nothing serious. She's a little weak. She must have been overworked in the past few years. Now her body is weak. Just go home and take good care of herself. Don't overwork yourself."

The two of them breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, the child was fine.

Zheng Lili is already in her early thirties, and neither she nor Brother Gu are young anymore.

This child is very important to both of them. They would be heartbroken if they lost him.

When they went back, it was Brother Gu who carried Zheng Lili back. Zheng Lili's face was almost buried in the ground.

Some villagers saw him on the road and said, "Oh, this old man Gu loves his wife so much that he hugs her in broad daylight."

Brother Gu smiled and replied, "No, aunt, my wife is in poor health and almost lost the baby. I'm thinking of not letting her move around."

"Oh, so that's the case. We have to take good care of it. This is no small matter," said the old lady.

Zheng Lili's heart was pounding all the way back home. She had never been hugged like this by anyone outside.

Zhou Suisui later heard about the good things that Second Brother Gu had done and couldn't stop laughing.

I also said this when I wrote to Gu Jingheng, saying that Second Brother Gu was in love and his mind was full of only his wife.

Second Brother Gu is a good man who can be trusted for life. His previous marriage with Third Sister Lin was a calculation and a mistake.

In the end, if Lin Sanmei hadn't cheated on him with someone else, Brother Gu would probably have tolerated her for the rest of her life.

In the eyes of people nowadays, divorce is a very shameful thing, and almost no one in the village would divorce.

They feel that life is full of bumps and bruises, and that it will pass if you endure it. It's no big deal and it's not to the point of divorce.

Dahua saw Zheng Lili lying on the kang and said nothing.

In the past, she would have to say a few words to tease her before Dahua would be happy.

Looking back, it seems that my own mother has never done anything gentle for me since I was a child.

When Lin Sanmei was around, she would either beat or scold her and never had a good face.

However, since Erhua was born, her mother's partner changed to Erhua.

Erhua, that silly girl, was so stupid that she didn't even dare to complain when she was beaten by herself. She was so stupid and deserved to be beaten.
