Chapter 4: My mother comes, my mother-in-law retreats
She cried heartbrokenly, sobbing, "If a little kid can really affect the fate of an entire family, then this whole family will have no life left. They have done too much evil and deserve to die."
There were already people gossiping in the village, and some people felt guilty.
Now that the real culprit has come forward, they dare not go forward and cause trouble.
"Woo woo, putting the blame on a child is heartless and will lead to a bad death."
"Don't scold Zhongguo, you just gave birth and can't be exposed to the wind. Come on, I'll take you back to the house. When your man comes back, he will give you justice."
In the village, there are good people as well as bad people.
Li Guixiang was helped into the house.
Looking at the litter of children in the house, an aunt who was close to Li Guixiang looked at the newborn girl.
I fell in love with her at first sight. "This girl is so beautiful. Look at her skin. It's like yours, Guixiang. You were also this fair when you first came to the village."
"Aunt Wang, you're joking. We all work in the fields, how could we possibly be fair-skinned? I was just old enough to get married, and my parents deliberately kept me at home for a month or so. Only then did I become fair-skinned."
White? Her skin is indeed very white, and all the other children look like her in this respect.
Unfortunately, they all work in the fields, facing the earth and back to the sky every day, and the exposed skin cannot be whitened even if they want to.
"That's because you have a good foundation. This girl is a blessing. You have to take good care of her. Don't listen to your mother-in-law. You know she's a mean person. You must not let her have her way."
"That's right." Following Aunt Wang in was his neighbor, Aunt He. Aunt He was very easy to get along with. When she was not available on weekdays, she would leave her children to be looked after by her.
Aunt He curled her lips and looked down on Xu Qiuniang, saying, "Your mother-in-law's mouth is like a poison. When she gets angry, she even scolds herself."
Li Guixiang was so irritable because she heard her daughter's inner voice and she couldn't help but lose her temper.
After venting her anger, she finally let it go. Let her curse, and we will separate after she is out of the confinement period.
After the family split up, if she dared to blame her daughter for any misfortunes again, she would tear them apart.
"I know, thank you Aunt He and Aunt Wang." Li Guixiang was sincerely grateful to them.
"Look at you, you're being so polite to us. Have you prepared everything for the confinement period? Have you notified your parents? If not, I'll have my Tiezhu go over there later."
The Li family is not far from here, and Li Guixiang is the favored one in the family. Now that Zhongguo is not at home, she has to ask her family members to come and keep an eye on things.
Otherwise, they would not feel comfortable letting a woman who had just given birth face Xu Qiuniang, the tiger-like woman.
"Not yet. It happened so fast. My father-in-law was carried back home right after the birth. Zhongguo didn't have time to announce the good news yet."
Li Guixiang thought about it and felt that it would be better to let her mother come. At least with her mother around, the old woman would not dare to bully her children.
"Then I'll trouble Tiezhu."
Aunt Wang smiled and said, "Look at what you said. You seem to be being too formal." Seeing that Li Guixiang was fine, they didn't plan to stay in the room for long. After all, it was a room for a woman who had just given birth, and they couldn't let outsiders disturb her.
"I'll have Tiezhu go and tell them right away. You can rest assured. I'll have Su Wen close the door."
"That's right, we won't stay long. It would be bad if we startled the child." Aunt He pointed at the little one sleeping on the bed, "It would be bad if the little one cried at night in the future."
As soon as the two left, Su Wen closed the door and said thank you to them in the room.
The two people who left were very satisfied. Guixiang is good at teaching children.
There was no show to watch, and most of the people outside had left.
They also went back to their own homes, and Aunt Wang went to find her son so that he could go to the next door Li Village to report the news.
Aunt He went home and found some eggs, along with half a bag of brown sugar. Zhongguo was not at home, and Xu Qiuniang, the old woman, was afraid that she would not be able to serve Guixiang food, so she would send it to her later.
A little bit of water is better than nothing.
Why is Aunt He so generous? I can only say that Li Guixiang is not a stingy person in her daily life.
Li Guixiang didn't expect Aunt He to send her anything, but she didn't refuse. The food in the house was locked in the main house and she couldn't get it.
It’s okay if you don’t eat, but you can’t let the little ones starve.
After thanking him, Li Guixiang kept this kindness in her heart, thinking of repaying him after her man came back.
Aunt Wang was quick to act. Just as noon arrived, the mother-in-law of the Li family came with her son.
The reason why she brought her son with her can only be explained by the fact that Mrs. Li knew what Xu Qiuniang had said to scold her granddaughter.
The Li family is not as prosperous as the Su family. Because of this, the family loves their only daughter so much that they are heartbroken.
How can I let my daughter be bullied like this in her husband's family?
Look, he brought his son here to find trouble.
"Xu, get out here! You dare to bully my daughter? I'll beat you to death today." When Mrs. Li came, she didn't go into the house to see her daughter and granddaughter, but attacked Xu Qiuniang directly.
Li Baojun was standing in the middle of the yard. He was tall and strong, and he looked like a wall. Everyone who saw him would stop him.
Mrs. Li knew the Su family very well. When she saw no one responded after she called for a long time, she immediately realized that they were hiding.
Without another word, she rushed into the main house.
He just banged on the closed door.
"Open the door, old man! If you dare to bully my daughter, then open the door."
Bang bang.
"My granddaughter has provoked you. You dare to pour something dirty and smelly on my granddaughter? I think you don't want to live anymore."
"Come out, get out now."
As she banged on the door, the door that was closed from the inside not only made a banging sound, but was about to be smashed open.
The people in the house could no longer hide.
"Get out, this is my Su family, get out of here." Although Xu Qiuniang was a little annoyed with the old man, people had already bullied her to the door of her room, and if she continued to hide, she would be laughed at.
People can be hurt, but face cannot be lost.
The Li family's disturbance naturally alarmed the surrounding neighbors.
Look, he came running over with a bowl of rice in his hand.
It's like having something to go with the meal.
In March, at the beginning of spring, there was a chilly wind in the sky, but it seemed as if no one was afraid of the cold.
The door opened, the shouting stopped, and soon a wailing sound was heard.
Li Guixiang could no longer lie down, and was awakened when her mother's voice rang out.
She was about to get off the bed, but her daughter urinated. She changed the urine container and then her daughter could sleep peacefully again.
Although the wailing sound did not come from her own mother, she couldn't really let her mother beat up her mother-in-law.
When Li Zhengliang heard that it was not his mother's voice, he didn't move.
With him standing in the yard, the people outside didn't even dare to come in.
You know, Li Baojun is good at martial arts, and he used to be in the militia.
I heard that he has been noticed by the town police and has a bright future, but no one dares to cause trouble for him.
"Sister, why did you come out? Go back quickly." Li Baojun shouted immediately when he saw his sister coming out of the house.
Li Guixiang couldn't help but feel tears in her eyes when she saw her brother.
