Chapter 149 Zhang Hongyan is doing bad things
"You...what are you laughing at?" Mrs. Zhou asked hesitantly with trembling hands.
"I laughed at you for being fooled by her. Xiaoxia has been pregnant for more than four months and has only been on the island for more than two months. She has nothing to do with this house." Yang Hongmei explained with a smile. She felt very amused when she saw Mrs. Zhou's expression frozen.
Lin Xia was also somewhat helpless. Whether or not one could get pregnant depended on whether there were any health problems with the couple, and whether they were "destined" to be together. What did it have to do with feng shui and the house?
It wasn't the house that made her pregnant.
The old woman was stunned. She couldn't help but look at Lin Xia's belly, then at Zhang Hongyan. She looked as if her grandson who was about to be born was about to fly away.
Zhang Hongyan's expression kept changing. She was careless and didn't pay attention to the month, so she couldn't fool him.
"It's all your fault that you deceived me, an old woman! You...you!" Mrs. Zhou held Zhang Hongyan tightly again and refused to let go, becoming furious.
Zhang Hongyan realized something was wrong and immediately turned around and ran away. Mrs. Zhou was angry and hurriedly chased after her.
Yang Hongmei looked at the two people who left, and exchanged a glance with Lin Xia. Both of them felt helpless.
"She won't fall, will she?" Lin Xia was worried. It wasn't because she felt sorry for her falling, but she was just afraid that she would be implicated.
"No, it's okay if she fell. She just looks old. She is probably in her fifties. She is dark and thin and looks old." Yang Hongmei remembered the age of Deputy Battalion Commander Zhou and guessed the approximate age of Mrs. Zhou.
All the old ladies in the countryside are like this, worn down by the sun and life, and they are all so dark and thin. They look old and pitiful. Thinking of her own mother-in-law's personality, Yang Hongmei felt that there must be something hateful about pitiful people.
Yang Hongmei looked outside the yard and said, "I don't know what's wrong with Zhang Hongyan. You better be careful. It's better to lock the door to the yard to prevent such things from happening again."
Still a little worried, he instructed: "If something like this happens again, call me earlier. If I were at home, I would definitely come."
She was about to leave, but Lin Xia hurriedly pulled her back, remembering the squid in the oven. She went back to the house and got a bowl with two pieces in it. "It's for the kids. Just tear it apart like this when it's not too hot. Try it."
When Yang Hongmei saw her tear off a piece, she tasted it curiously. It was delicious and chewy. She knew the children liked it as soon as she tasted it. Old Wu would definitely like it when he had a break and could drink.
Thinking that it would surely spread among the children soon, Yang Hongmei was not polite. Seeing that it was not so hot anymore, she took the clothes and wrapped them up, "In case you have to return the bowl later, just take it this way."
Lin Xia thought about it in her heart. She always felt that this matter would not be so easy to resolve. Later at night, she would ask Lu Yuxiu to put a lock on the gate of the yard, not to prevent thieves, but to prevent such accidents.
After Lin Xia grilled the squid, she left it on the table to dry. At noon, she had noodles with squid shreds. She saved a fresh squid, cut it into shreds, stir-fried it, and poured the shreds on the noodles.
Lin Xia was busy in the kitchen when the little one came back all sweaty. She couldn't spare the time to give her a bath, so she had to use two towels to absorb the sweat from her front and back.
Mrs. Zhou couldn't run as fast as Zhang Hongyan, so at noon she had to go home, planning to settle the score with Zhang Hongyan in the afternoon.
As soon as she got home, she saw her daughter-in-law cooking. Looking at the meat and vegetables on the table, Mrs. Zhou slammed the table and got angry, "Okay! My son is not at home, and you are just eating and drinking with his money like this?"
Su Qiuhua saw that her mother-in-law had misunderstood, "I didn't, I just saw that you were here, so I thought I'd let you eat better."
Mrs. Zhou's face was furious. "How can you be so kind? You are pretending to be so kind. You must have spent money recklessly without my son's knowledge."
"I didn't." Su Qiuhua was really inconsolable. Yesterday, when her mother-in-law came, she saw two vegetables and a plate of sea fish. She was dissatisfied and found this excuse to vent her anger, which attracted others to come and watch the fun.
As soon as they heard the mother-in-law crying and complaining that her mother-in-law didn't cook any meat and was abusing the elderly, the people next to her started talking, saying that she was ignorant and stingy, and how could she not buy any meat when her mother-in-law came and only eat vegetables and radishes.
But my mother-in-law came in the afternoon, and there was not a single piece of meat or even a bone at the meat stall. She wanted other chickens and ducks, but she didn't have enough meat tickets.
Her mother-in-law accused Hai Yu of poisoning her again. This morning, after Director Pei persuaded her mother-in-law, she went to buy meat and luckily managed to grab a piece.
Now Su Qiuhua was slandered by her mother-in-law for spending money recklessly, and she couldn't help but feel a little resentful.
Is it her fault alone that she can't have a child?
Mrs. Zhou cursed in dissatisfaction, completely ignoring the unwillingness in her daughter-in-law's eyes.
Su Qiuhua heard more and more outrageous words. Even though she had heard them a lot in the past two days, she still felt hurt in her heart and got up and went back to her room.
When Mrs. Zhou saw her go into the room, she scolded her even more fiercely. She thought about how her son fought hard on the battlefield, but ended up marrying a spendthrift woman who lived a life of luxury at home and couldn't even give birth to a girl.
The more she thought about it, the angrier she got. Mrs. Zhou ate the whole plate of meat. She wanted to eat meat even though it didn't lay eggs.
Su Qiuhua lay on the bed crying silently, reaching out to touch her belly, not knowing why she couldn't get pregnant. She had been to the hospital and had tests done, and there was no problem, but she just didn't know why she couldn't get pregnant.
Zhang Hongyan waited for a long time in fear, and was relieved when she saw that Mrs. Zhou didn't come. However, she still felt a little unwilling.
After rummaging around for a while at home, he found two cans and a pack of biscuits. After thinking for a while, he put one of the cans back and went out with them.
Mrs. Zhou was lying down to digest her food. When she heard the door ring, she called Su Qiuhua to open the door. Then she remembered that she had gone out. She got up unhappily to open the door. When she saw Zhang Hongyan at the door, she immediately reached out and grabbed her. "Okay, it's all your fault for lying to me."
"Don't panic, Auntie. I'm giving these things to you to eat. Just listen to me." Zhang Hongyan smiled ingratiatingly and explained.
After looking at the can, Mrs. Zhou hesitated for a while and let her in. "I want to see if you have anything else to say."
Zhang Hongyan followed him in, looked around and asked, "Where's Qiuhua?"
"Why are you looking for her? She's not here." Mrs. Zhou's hand that was opening the can was stunned and she stared at Zhang Hongyan.
"I'm not looking for her, I'm just seeing if she's there. If she's not there, that's good." If she's not there, that's good.
Zhang Hongyan: "Aunt, you were confused by that little hoof this morning. Although she got pregnant early, that house is definitely a place where children are born. Think about Zhao Hehua next door. She also lived in that house."
"You see, Qiuhua spent a lot of money on seeing the doctor, but there's nothing wrong with him. There must be something wrong somewhere else. Doesn't the book say that? Some things require the right location and something suitable. The location here refers to the house, right?" Zhang Hongyan advised earnestly.
Mrs. Zhou had never been to school, but she was very superstitious. She had secretly consulted a master before, and the master said that it might be because of incompatibility of horoscopes. So when she heard that there was something compatible, she thought it made sense.
Seeing that Mrs. Zhou had some faith on her face, Zhang Hongyan stepped up her firepower, "The woman next door to them gave birth to two sons in a row. Do you think that place is good?"
