"Useless thing, go boil some water for your mother, she wants to take a bath." As soon as Wang Er'e sat down, she pinched Li Youmei's hand hard while saying this.
"Yes." A shadow crossed Li Youmei's eyes, but she quickly regained her composure.
Let's wait a little longer, it's not the right time yet. Just wait a bit, it will be soon.
Li Youmei kept comforting herself.
"A hen that doesn't lay eggs, a piece of trash." Wang Er'e vented all her frustrations about the day on Li Youmei.
The grievances he suffered at the Jiang family's house, and the fall he took on the way back, were all blamed on Li Youmei.
Li Youmei listened silently, then turned and left in silence.
When she first married into the family, it was because her husband said he would protect her.
It turned out he was lying to her; he never kept his word and allowed his mother to bully her at will.
Things were alright at first, but when she still hadn't gotten pregnant after a year, Wang Er'e went even further.
In fact, Li Youmei knew very well who was the one who couldn't lay eggs.
It was her useless man, not her.
So, Li Youmei was thinking about how to divorce that man and get far away from his family.
She had to come up with a foolproof plan to make sure everyone in the group knew who was at fault.
......
Three days later, after Wang Er'e regained her footing and was able to walk again, she immediately took an oxcart to town and told the Liu family that the Jiang family had still refused.
After Wang Er'e left.
"Mom, what should we do? The Jiang family still doesn't agree." Liu Jianlin frowned and paced back and forth in the room.
"Then forget it. Why do you insist on marrying that girl from the Jiang family?" Huang Meihua really didn't understand why her son wanted to marry that girl from the Jiang family.
"She's beautiful. Only someone as beautiful as her is worthy of me, Liu Jianlin." Liu Jianlin raised his chin, his face full of arrogance.
"Just because of this?" Huang Meihua frowned, clearly not expecting this answer. "There are many good-looking people, why did you choose that little girl?"
“Because of her family background—her father is the brigade leader, and her eldest brother Jiang Zhuohua will likely succeed him; her second brother Jiang Nanqing is in the army, and is said to be a battalion commander, and will certainly not be less than that in the future; her third brother Jiang Nanqiu is a school teacher; and she is the only daughter in the Jiang family. Just based on all of this, the benefits of marrying her are immense. It would be very advantageous for our family,” Liu Jianlin analyzed one by one.
He knew all this because he accidentally saw Jiang Anxia on his way home from get off work that day and kept it in mind. Later, he inquired around and finally found out who she was.
After finding out who the other person was, he then went to find out about their family information.
So after learning all this, he realized that marrying her would be a huge boost to the Liu family.
"No wonder." Huang Meihua nodded in understanding. So that was the reason.
"Mom, please think of something!" Liu Jianlin couldn't help but whine to Huang Meihua.
(Ahem, you can imagine a man in his late twenties or early thirties, with a face full of acne, dark skin, yellow teeth covered in stains, barely 1.65 meters tall, and looking like he weighs 150 pounds, acting coquettishly towards his elderly mother, even tugging at her sleeve, with a shy expression.)
"Mom, let me think about it. Mom, let me think about it." Huang Meihua looked at Liu Jianlin, thinking to herself what to do.
Seeing that Huang Meihua was lost in thought, Liu Jianlin did not disturb her and sat quietly beside her.
"I've got it, Bao! You don't need to go to work for the next few days. Go back to the brigade and fawn over that little girl." After thinking for a while, Huang Meihua could only come up with this solution.
"Will this work?" Liu Jianlin asked, somewhat incredulous.
Is this really a good idea?
"It'll work, just listen to your mother," Huang Meihua said confidently, patting her chest.
She believed this approach would work.
Because that's what she did when she first fell for Liu Jianlin's father.
"Alright then!" Although Liu Jianlin felt that this idea was not very reliable, he still followed Huang Meihua's suggestion.
"Go find your sister now and ask her to ask us for leave. We'll go back to the brigade this afternoon." Seeing that Liu Jianlin agreed, Huang Meihua took the first step.
The Liu family lives in the town, while the Jiang family lives in the brigade. If they really want to marry that girl, they can only go back to the brigade.
Fortunately, those two old geezers are still around. Otherwise, she would have to clean the house when she got back, and she would never do that.
"Okay, I'll go right away." Upon hearing Huang Meihua's words, Liu Jianlin immediately ran out.
Huang Meihua, who remained where she was, shook her head helplessly. "This child... why is he in such a hurry?"
Meanwhile, Jiang Anxia, who was still at home, was looking at the chickens in the coop with a serious expression.
The main reason is that Jiang's mother gave her a task when she went out today.
That means killing a chicken and making soup for the family.
The problem now is that she dares to catch chickens, but she doesn't dare to kill them!
Jiang Anxia, in a moment of ruthlessness, walked straight into the chicken coop and grabbed a chicken.
After closing the chicken coop door, I picked up the old hen and headed towards the front yard.
When I saw Jiang Anxia again, she was holding a kitchen knife and gesturing at the chicken in her hand.
The chicken was so frightened that it kept shrinking its neck, trying to escape its fate of being killed.
(At this moment, the mother hen was thinking: If you're going to kill it, just kill it! Just chop it off with one stroke, why are you gesturing like that at its neck! You're just scaring the chicken!)
"Sigh~ I can handle other things, but I'm really no good at killing these! Mom, you've really screwed me over!" Jiang Anxia sighed helplessly as she looked at the chicken in her hand.
She just can't bring herself to do it, what should I do!
"What is my little darling doing?" Gu Yanzhu, who had been standing at the door for a while, chuckled, immediately attracting Jiang Anxia's attention.
"Why are you here?" Jiang Anxia grinned, smiling broadly.
"Because I sensed that my darling needs me now!" Gu Yanzhu smiled gently as she walked towards the little girl and took the old hen and kitchen knife from her hands.
"No...no, I didn't." Jiang Anxia blushed and whispered her rebuttal.
“Okay, no. I need my baby.” Gu Yanzhu replied with a smile.
“Yes, yes! You need me.” Gu Yanzhu offered a way out, and Jiang Anxia followed suit, not afraid of falling down at all.
Because she knew that Gu Yanzhu wouldn't let her fall; on the contrary, he would protect her very well.
"Alright, sweetie, why don't you go inside and boil some water first? I'll kill the chicken." Gu Yanzhu was afraid that the scene of killing the chicken would be too bloody and frighten his little girl, so he wanted her to go into the kitchen first to boil water.
"Okay." Jiang Anxia nodded obediently and turned to go into the kitchen.
