What could she do? She was already so old, if she was divorced and sent back to her parents' home, it would be like forcing her to die!
Seeing that her family was on the verge of making ends meet, she began to think about finding a husband for her daughter.
In the past, the girls in their Montenegro Brigade had no trouble finding a husband, but so many things happened in just one year.
Now matchmakers don’t like to come to their Montenegro Brigade anymore.
"Ju! Mother has no choice. Look at this family. If you don't marry them, they will all starve to death."
Seeing that her daughter was a little hesitant, Ren Dazhu's wife hurriedly tried to persuade her.
"The family that Mom found for you only has one son. If you give birth to a son, won't you be the head of the family?"
People only agreed to give her 50 yuan as a gift and 200 kilograms of food after finding out that she had given birth to so many sons.
It is said that girls look like their mothers, so people hope to carry on the family line.
"Yes, little sister, that family has good conditions. You won't go hungry if you go there. You're going to enjoy life!"
The whole family tried to persuade Ren Jingju, but Ren Dazhu remained silent.
Wu Qingqing's man is gone, and now she depends on him to make a living.
He also thought about marrying her home, which would be better than the old woman at home.
Not only is Wu Qingqing young, she can also take care of him, unlike the one at home who is sick all the time.
He also always hated his wife for her lack of foresight. Not only did she give away her most promising son, but now she has also cut off all ties with him.
Otherwise, they wouldn’t know how to live a good life now.
She is really good at nothing except giving birth to a son. It is really unlucky for him to marry such a wife.
But when he looked at his family, he knew that now was not the time to bring up this issue, as his sons would definitely still side with their mother.
"You all know that man is a fool. Why would I marry him and have children? I'm afraid I'll be a widow for the rest of my life."
Ren Jingju knew that her family was in financial difficulty, so even if she found a normal family and life was a little difficult, she would accept it.
She was hiding aside and eavesdropping on what the matchmaker said: You're still so picky, you're lucky there's a fool who wants you.
She didn't expect that they were going to sell her in order to get more money and food.
"What do you mean by idiot? He just can't speak clearly. Mother has asked around and he's sure he can have children."
Ren Dazhu's wife was also unsure, but that's what the matchmaker said.
"I won't marry. If you force me again, I will die and you will get nothing."
Ren Jingju knew what they were thinking, and she couldn't ruin her life for them.
"What woman doesn't want to get married? It's the parents who have the final say in every family. But you are the only one who has the final say." Brother Ren's wife was dissatisfied.
She has the most children in her family, five in total, and they are waiting for their sister-in-law to get married so that they can have enough food to eat.
They have been drinking watery soup for several days. There is not even a dry object in the soup, only green vegetable leaves. If this continues, they will starve to death.
"You can let me get married, but I want a normal family." Ren Jingju knew that this family could no longer accommodate her.
She is not afraid of hardship, but she is afraid of not seeing hope in this life.
Ren Dazhu's family was making a fuss, but Ren Jingxiao didn't know about it. He was scratching his ears and cheeks and couldn't sleep.
The weather is getting colder, and Xia Xia likes to sleep next to him now. That's not all, she also likes to put her feet on his stomach so that he can keep them warm.
He covered it quickly because he was burning hot. He endured it like this, because Xia Xia was pregnant with his daughter, so he couldn't do anything rash.
"Aren't you asleep yet? What are you thinking about?" Ningxia turned over and saw Ren Jingxiao with his eyes wide open, and asked in a daze.
"I... I can't sleep." Ren Jingxiao answered honestly.
"What's wrong? Are you feeling stressed at work?" Ningxia thought about how she was under a lot of pressure when she was working.
"No, I'm just angry. I'm going out to take a shower." Ren Jingxiao felt that this was not going to work.
Only after Ren Jingxiao left did Ningxia realize what happened to him.
Ever since he knew she was pregnant, Ren Jingxiao consciously put his favorite activities on hold.
Ningxia has never been pregnant, but she has read a lot of books and knows that it is okay to have sex in the second trimester.
She calculated that it was still a few days away from three months, so she didn't dare to do that. However, there was only one way.
Ningxia was hesitating whether to help Ren Jingxiao. If she opened the door to his new world, she was afraid that he would not be able to control it later.
When Ren Jingxiao came back to the house after taking a cold shower, Ningxia shivered from the coldness all over her body.
"Are you trying to kill yourself by taking a cold shower in such a cold weather?"
Even though it's not snowing yet, the temperature at night won't exceed ten degrees.
Taking a cold shower on a day like this? She thought about the next few months. Was he going to live like this?
By the time she gives birth, his health will probably be broken.
"Xia Xia, how about I sleep in another bed?" Seeing Xia Xia's worried face, Ren Jingxiao said it hesitantly.
He is not afraid of taking cold showers, he is afraid of freezing Xia Xia.
He felt that he had too much energy, so he decided to carry his bicycle to and from get off work from now on.
"No." Ningxia refused without thinking. She couldn't sleep well without him.
Ningxia said nothing, pulled the man onto the bed, and without saying a word, personally taught Ren Jingxiao a lesson.
Ren Jingxiao felt like he was dreaming that night. He didn't know that things could be like this. Xia Xia knew a lot.
"Can we sleep now?" Ningxia looked at people breathlessly.
Watching Ren Jingxiao cleaning up while smiling in a worthless manner.
"Let me clean up and then I'll go to bed." While cleaning up, Ren Jingxiao brought a bowl of water for Xia Xia to rinse her mouth.
Ningxia felt that this was more tiring than using real guns and bullets, after all, she didn't put in any effort at that time.
"Xia Xia, let's stick with the old rules, once every two days, okay?"
Ren Jingxiao climbed onto the bunk and held the person in his arms, looking at Ningxia with sparkling eyes.
"You wish." Ningxia would not be soft-hearted if she wasn't afraid that he would catch a cold.
Ningxia felt that there were many ways to deal with this problem, so she decided to let him do it himself next time. She didn't want to put in any effort anyway.
Ren Jingxiao was not disappointed. At worst, he would just beg her for help. Anyway, Xia Xia couldn't bear to be cruel to him.
Ren Jingxiao fell asleep soon after holding Ningxia in his arms, and the anger in his heart subsided.
Just as the sky was getting light, Ningxia's alarm clock rang.
"You just promise me it's just one day, and you're not allowed to get up again." Ren Jingxiao saw Ning Xia struggling to get up and quickly pushed her down.
"Then heat up the buns and eat them." Ningxia asked Ren Jingxiao to bring a basin and took out the buns she had made before from the space.
There were both meat and vegetable dishes. She took ten of them, fearing that Ren Jingxiao would not be full.
After Ren Jingxiao finished his meal, he boiled water and poured it into the thermos.
He put the milk powder in the cabinet next to the bed. He was afraid that Xia Xia would wake up late, so he could make some milk powder for her when she got up.
He gave Dapao some more instructions before riding his bicycle to town.
