Li Tingman didn't tell her what Zhao Shuanglian said, but just told her not to pay attention to it so as not to corrupt the child.
Meng Zhiyu knew what Li Tingman meant, but didn't say much. He rinsed his mouth and wiped the water stains from the corners of his mouth. He said to the bewildered Li Qingqing, "Don't think about anything. You just need to know that we girls get married to live a better life, not to be someone's nanny."
In her opinion, Zhao Shuanglian's remarks were ridiculous. She hadn't even gotten married yet, but she was already racking her brains to think of how to please her in-laws.
It's not enough to struggle on your own, you also have to drag others along.
If you put yourself in the position of a "servant" and still expect to be respected and loved by others, it is unlikely.
Li Qingqing nodded obediently. If she didn't have a smart brain, she would just follow those who did. After all, Meng Zhiyu and the others wouldn't harm her. She was very sure of that.
After breakfast, Meng Zhiyu walked to Zhou's house with a basket on his shoulder. Zhou's mother and Zhou's eldest and second sisters-in-law were sitting under the thatched shed in the yard and had been working for quite a while.
Seeing Meng Zhiyu's energetic appearance, Mrs. Zhou smiled and said, "I saw that you haven't come yet, so I knew you were sleeping in."
Zhou's mother was very understanding. "You are still a child, it is normal for you to sleep a little longer. If you want to sleep more when you have nothing to do on weekdays, I won't say anything. But at my age, even if I want to sleep more, I can't."
Meng Zhiyu moved a stool and sat next to Zhou's mother, greeting her and the other two one by one.
Mrs. Zhou looked upset and said, "Look, I didn't say anything, but you protected me."
Although their mother-in-law said so, they couldn't sleep in as they pleased. After all, they were married and had children. If people knew about it, those gossips would probably start talking about it again.
As for Meng Zhiyu, she was his son's savior, and he couldn't bully her. It was just a joke.
Mother Zhou patted her gently and said, "You are still having an affair with your sister. Didn't I protect you when you were in trouble?"
To be fair, she felt that she was a pretty good mother-in-law. Although she had three sons, she tried her best to treat them equally.
Mrs. Zhou hugged her mother's arm and acted coquettishly, and Mrs. Zhou also smiled and said a few words to make fun of her. Mrs. Zhou was very satisfied with her life in her husband's family.
Yesterday I made a coat, and today Meng Zhiyu plans to make a long-sleeved inner layer, similar to an autumn sweater.
This was simpler than making a coat. With yesterday's experience and the guidance of three veterans, Meng Zhiyu quickly got to work.
Although I arrived late, I was much faster than yesterday. Before lunch, the first autumn outfit I made by myself was freshly baked.
Zhou's mother and the other two took turns reading it and praised, "You young people are really smart and learn quickly."
"It's all thanks to Aunt Zhou and Aunt Zhou's second sister-in-law who taught me well." Meng Zhiyu looked at Qiu Yi and said with a sweet smile.
Meng Zhiyu declined Zhou's mother's invitation to dinner on the grounds that she had to go home to get some cloth. She carried a small basket and hummed a little tune as she walked back to the educated youth's yard. On the way, she met Zhou Songbai who had returned.
"Brother Wednesday."
"Well, are your clothes ready?" Zhou Songbai looked at the small bamboo basket in her hand. It was obvious from her expression that she wanted to go back.
He heard his mother and father whispering yesterday, saying that they didn't know what was going on at Meng Zhiyu's home, as there was not even anyone to mail thick clothes.
He complained that the Meng family was so cruel that they could not bear to care about such a lovely little girl. Zhou's father even said a few words to Zhou's mother about this, telling her not to say anything if she didn't know the situation.
Zhou Songbai also heard her mother and two sisters-in-law praising her for her cleverness and dexterity, saying that she only needed to be taught carefully once and she could learn it.
