Chapter 148
Zhong Lan's words touched Aunt Xie's heart.
Zhou Jinmei had just scolded her. Yao Yi had just had a miscarriage a few months earlier, and Zhong Lan had also had a miscarriage before. Getting pregnant wasn't a big deal; you had to be able to give birth. Zhou Jinmei was just saying that the Yao family had bad feng shui, which was why women had miscarriages one after another and couldn't even give birth.
Yao Hong said at the right moment: "Mom, it wasn't easy for Zhong Lan to get pregnant with this child. We should all bear with it for a while and wait for her to give birth to the baby safely."
Aunt Xie was still a little unhappy. She sneered and said, "She can't just sit there and do nothing and let me worship her all day long!"
"It's not that I don't do anything, but I definitely won't do heavy work. I can help clean the house and cook."
Zhong Lan knew Aunt Xie's character, and she didn't really want to be a hands-off boss, doing nothing. Aunt Xie wouldn't agree, and she didn't have that kind of fate.
She just wanted to protect herself and the baby in her belly as much as possible.
Hearing Zhong Lan say this, Aunt Xie was slightly satisfied: "Okay, I can wash the clothes, but you can't do nothing. Our family doesn't have the conditions to support a young lady."
…
The news that Ye Fuyue was pregnant with twins and Zhong Lan was also pregnant soon reached Yao Yina.
The reason why Yao Yi knew these things was that Aunt Xie went to her school to find her and told her.
Of course, Aunt Xie went to see her not just to gossip with her, but to remind her.
"You should also take good care of your body and get pregnant again. If you can be pregnant with twins like Ye Fuyue, it would be even better. Your mother-in-law will definitely treat you like a spoiled child and serve you well! This man, only when he has his own children, will he devote himself to your little family."
Yao Yi really wanted to get pregnant again. However, her belly just didn't move! Every time this happened, she regretted it more and more. She shouldn't have been so willful and used the child in her belly as a bargaining chip to cause a miscarriage.
"Mom, I know." Yao Yi was a little impatient, and then she said sarcastically, "Ye Fuyue is really lucky. She can get pregnant with two children at once."
"That's right. Chen Guifeng almost worships her and doesn't let her do any work." Aunt Xie said.
Yao Yi thought about how she had to be servile all day long and rush to do all kinds of work in order to please the Lei family and Lei Xiao since she had a miscarriage, and she felt more and more unhappy.
After Aunt Xie left, Yao Yi was no longer in the mood to go to work. She left early and went to Lei Xiao's school to find him, preparing to go back with him at noon.
However, Yao Yi did not go into the school. Firstly, the guard would not let her in; secondly, she did not want Lei Xiao to think that she was disturbing his class. Yao Yi waited for Lei Xiao outside the school.
Soon it was noon and time for school to be over, and Lei Xiao came out.
But Lei Xiao did not come out alone, but with a female comrade.
The lesbian looked gentle and tender, and the two of them walked together, talking about something. Both of them looked relaxed and smiled a little, and they looked quite compatible.
Yao Yi's face immediately turned pale, and a feeling of jealousy and anger rose in her heart.
She stared at the female comrade intently, her gaze as if it were real, as if she wanted to cut her into pieces.
Yao Yi calmed down, put on a smile, and walked over to him and called softly, "Lei Xiao——"
Lei Xiao and the female comrade both looked in the direction of her voice.
The female comrade didn't react when she saw Yao Yi. She just said to Lei Xiao, "I'll be leaving now. We'll talk about the details this afternoon."
"Okay." Lei Xiao nodded.
Yao Yi looked at the female comrade turning and leaving, then went over and took Lei Xiao's arm.
She was about to speak, but Lei Xiao's face darkened and he stared at her hand that was holding his arm.
Yao Yi finally reacted and quickly let go of her hand.
She was so focused on asserting her sovereignty that she forgot that Lei Xiao hated her being intimate with him in public the most. He felt that this had a bad influence.
"This is outside the school, don't cause any bad influence." Lei Xiao said in a deep voice.
Yao Yi pursed his lips and apologized with his eyes downcast: "I'm sorry, I forgot..."
Seeing that her attitude was pretty good, Lei Xiao didn't say anything else.
He slowed down his tone and said, "Did you come here specially to wait for me to get off work together?"
"Yeah!" Yao Yi's face regained some spirit, and then she said in a coquettish tone: "When I came here, I saw you walking with a female comrade."
Lei Xiao was not very happy, as he felt that Yao Yi's words were like an interrogation of him.
He said, "She is a teacher in our school. She was talking to me about some academic matters."
"We didn't finish chatting at work, so we have to continue chatting after get off work?"
Lei Xiao looked at Yao Yi: "What do you want to say?"
Yao Yi saw that Lei Xiao looked unhappy, and she felt even more uncomfortable.
She was servile at home every day, serving the whole family. She had only asked a few questions, and Lei Xiao was upset. Could a school teacher be more important than her?
Although Yao Yi was also unhappy, she didn't dare show it. She was now the virtuous image of a good wife and a good daughter-in-law!
"I was just asking out of curiosity. You rarely tell me about your school."
"That's all the stuff that happens in school. You're a teacher yourself, so you know it." Lei Xiao said.
"What does that female teacher teach?" Yao Yi was worried and wanted to ask a few more questions.
"Chinese and art." Lei Xiao said.
Yao Yi snorted in his heart: You know it quite clearly.
"She teaches Chinese, just like you!" Yao Yi feigned surprise and asked, "Has she been at the school long?"
"It's okay, not too long."
"Compared to you, who has stayed in school longer?"
Lei Xiao was getting a little impatient and didn't want to talk about Teacher Yang anymore.
"Why do you keep asking her?"
"I saw that she teaches Chinese like you, so I was quite curious and asked more questions." Yao Yi said with a pitiful look.
"I don't know much about her, so you don't need to ask." Lei Xiao changed the subject: "What are we having for lunch today? Are you still going to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy vegetables?"
"We have vegetables at home, no need to buy more. I plan to cook them at noon..." Yao Yi said while observing Lei Xiao's expression.
Lei Xiao's expression seemed calm, nothing unusual. But Yao Yi felt that there was something fishy going on between Lei Xiao and the female teacher. Otherwise, why did the female teacher walk away in disgrace when she saw her coming? Why didn't Lei Xiao let her ask? What was there to be forbidden?
…
When Ye Fuyue was reading at home, there was a knock on the door.
Ye Fuyue asked, "Who is it?" and went to open the door.
