"If she had given birth to this third child, I don't know what she would have turned out to be like." Zhang Ye's wife sighed, "If you ask me, having one or two children would have been enough. Why have so many? It would be so tiring. I don't even dare to think about it..."
"Those two kids have a hard time." Shen Li sighed. She felt very pitiful when she thought of the two kids who were locked up at home.
These are only two children. If a third child is born, it will make the situation even worse.
For the sake of her younger brother and her mother's family, she even ignored her own children?
Shen Li didn't know what to say.
"You go and do your work, I'll take a walk." Shen Li said.
"Okay, don't work too hard and make sure you get enough rest," said Mrs. Zhang Ye.
"Okay, goodbye." Shen Li supported her bulging belly and wandered aimlessly on the island.
The closer you get to the late stage of pregnancy, the more you need to exercise and take a walk, which is also beneficial to the birth of the fetus.
I don't know when Lu Jingchuan will be able to come back...
As Shen Li walked, she unexpectedly arrived at the small courtyard.
At this time, there was no more heart-wrenching crying of the two children in the courtyard.
Yang Yuping had packed up and was about to go to work in a hurry, but the little girl ran over crying and hugged Yang Yuping's thigh, "Mom, please don't go to work, okay?"
The little girl looked up at Yang Yuping pitifully, her eyes full of tears.
"You kid!" Yang Yuping frowned and quickly pulled the little girl's hand away. "If you don't go to work, what will you eat and drink at home? Where will you get the money if you don't go to work?!"
"But you didn't give your money to me and my sister! You gave all the money you earned to my uncle and grandma." The little girl said with a tearful face.
"I don't have time to chat with you. You can earn more money every day if you work every day. You just stay at home honestly!" As she said that, Yang Yuping pushed the little girl hard into the yard, then quickly took the lock and key and was about to lock the door.
The little girl was crying and shouting inside, banging on the door of the courtyard, "Don't lock me in! Let me out! Mom, please don't lock me in, wuwuwu..."
"I want to go play...Mom, please..."
"Why are you crying?!" Yang Yuping was a little anxious and said unhappily, "You just keep crying. If you were a boy, I would have let you go out to play a long time ago, but you don't fight back and act like a girl!"
"You spend the whole day thinking about going out to play. Who will take care of the second child at home? When your brother is born, you will still have to take good care of him at home. Now start learning to exercise yourself!"
After saying this, Yang Yuping cruelly locked the door, put away the key, and left.
Locked inside was the cry of a little girl in despair and pain.
When Yang Yuping got up to leave, she turned around and met Shen Li's cold gaze.
"Director Shen, I promise I won't delay the work. I'm leaving now!"
Having said that, Yang Yuping hurriedly stood up and was about to leave.
"You keep the child locked up at home like this, how long do you plan to keep her there?" Shen Li originally didn't want to meddle in other people's affairs, but after seeing this scene, she really couldn't help herself.
"You are such a big kid, it's time for you to go to kindergarten."
There is a kindergarten on the island for these soldiers' children to study.
"This... this can't be helped..." Yang Yuping was somewhat helpless, "Zhaodi is the eldest in the family after all, she has to bear some of the pressure of the family..."
Recruiting a brother?
Then her second brother...could he be called Pan Di?
It is true that there is always something hateful about a pitiful person.
"I heard that you went to the factory to make money for your mother's family," Shen Li said, "Have you ever thought that if you didn't subsidize your mother's family and your brother, you could be with your two children and you wouldn't have to work so hard."
"But my mother's family are my blood relatives, I can't just ignore them..." Yang Yuping said with a bitter face, "It's my own bad luck."
"Have you ever thought that this is unfair to your eldest child? She is still a child of about 18 years old. She could have played carefree like other children in the family compound. Now you lock her up at home every day to take care of the little one. When this baby is born in your belly, your eldest child will have to raise these two children. She is still a child herself. Isn't it hard for her to bear such a heavy burden?"
"You have suffered a lot yourself, but you don't think about protecting your child from the wind and rain. Instead, you transfer the fate and suffering to the child, letting such a small child bear the burden of life with you. You treat the child like this, or do you think that your mother's family is more important than the child you gave birth to?"
"This is fate!" Yang Yuping said with tears in her eyes, "I don't want to live this way, but there is no way. I have a miserable life, and my children will also have a miserable life with me..."
"You could have been spared this fate. This was your own choice, but you have caused your child to suffer the same fate as you. Think about it carefully."
After Shen Li finished speaking, she stood up and left.
Good words can't persuade a damned ghost.
That was all she had to say.
Shen Li held her bulging belly and continued to walk around the island. When she felt a little tired, she got up and went back.
In the evening, good news came from the island.
Lu Jingchuan returned with his team and all the medical and scientific research personnel trapped in Country M!
Many reporters came to the island to interview these medical and scientific researchers.
"Thanks to Captain Lu for saving us from such a dangerous place. Otherwise, we would have really died in a foreign land!"
"Yes, we originally thought that we would never have the chance to see the moon in our hometown, but we never thought that we would be able to see it in our lifetime!"
"It was Captain Lu who saved us despite all odds and risks to his own life. Without Captain Lu, we wouldn't be where we are today!"
The big guy said with tears in his eyes.
"When we went to Country M, we were controlled and implanted with crystals." Qiu Nian said with tears in his eyes, "As a result, we have been unable to escape these years and have been forced to work day and night for the people of Country M to conduct scientific research. We miss our homeland very much and look forward to returning to it very much. Now that we are back, I will die without regrets."
"Thank you Captain Lu for rescuing us. Thank you Captain Lu for helping us remove the implanted crystals in our bodies, allowing us to regain our freedom."
Qiu Nian shed two lines of tears, "In recent years, I have been forced to do many medical experiments in Country M. We will submit all the steps, processes, and data of these experiments to the country to support the development of national medicine and scientific research technology!"
There was thunderous applause and everyone's eyes were filled with tears.
