It happened that summer that the naughty boys went swimming in the river together and several of them drowned.
Most of the villagers have many children, so a few drownings would not cause any concern for their parents. However, families with fewer children would sound the alarm and repeatedly warn their children not to go to the river to play.
Zhao Tingnu's son was spoiled and never took his mother's instructions to heart. This instruction instead aroused his rebellious psychology.
Not only did he want to go, he also invited Wan Qingliu's two sons to go with him.
The two children were obedient and did not go, so he invited other children from the village to go. Unfortunately, they drowned and lost their lives.
The only child!
We survived the war and were about to grow up, but he was gone.
Zhao Tingnu couldn't accept the fact, she cried and wailed, and even resented Wan Qingliu's two sons.
She felt that if they had not persuaded her son, her son would not have gone swimming. She also felt that if Wan Qingliu's child had gone, it would not be her own son who died.
When Zhao Ting's daughter's son was still alive, she was just envious of Wan Qingliu for having so many sons because the children of the two families got along well.
But since her son died, Zhao Tingnu resented Wan Qingliu's son on the one hand, and felt unbalanced on the other.
Why did Wan Qingliu's family have four sons who were all alive and well, but she only had one and died at such a young age?
Wan Qingliu was also afraid that if her two sons followed him, they might never come back.
Originally, Wan Qingliu felt a little sympathetic towards Zhao Tingnu for losing her only child, and comforted her.
Unexpectedly, the other party was so unreasonable and pushed the blame onto Wan Qingliu's two sons. His twisted logic made Wan Qingliu very angry.
Your son shouldn’t die, but my son should die?
The two had a quarrel, and the relationship between the two families deteriorated.
Over the years, the two of them have had constant conflicts, big and small, and have completely become the most annoying people in each other's eyes.
When Zhao Tingnu heard that the second son of the Wan Qingliu family finally had a child, but it was a girl, she felt very happy.
After her son died, she became pregnant and had miscarriages again and again. Finally, six years ago, she gave birth to a frail and sickly daughter, which made her feel ashamed.
Now seeing that Wan Qingliu only had a granddaughter, she felt that this was retribution for Hua Laoer! Didn't he watch her son die indifferently?
Now you have no descendants!
Zhao Tingnu gloated, "That thing in your arms, is it your precious granddaughter? You spent so much money on the hospital to give birth, and in the end you only gave birth to a money-losing baby. If it were me, I would feel so ashamed!"
Wan Qingliu tutted and said disdainfully, "What kind of feudal old-fashioned thinking is this? Great men have always said that women hold up half the sky! Now it's a new society, men and women are equal. I think you still have a lot of room for improvement!"
As he spoke, Wan Qingliu rocked Hua Wanchi in his arms and coaxed her, "Don't let our Chichi learn from people like that. It's bad luck!"
Hua Wanchi almost laughed out loud, then she remembered that she was still a little baby and could laugh without restraint, so she really opened her mouth and giggled.
Seeing Hua Wanchi smile, Wan Qingliu was also happy: "Chichi agrees too, right? Hey, she is worthy of being my granddaughter. She has such a high level of ideological awareness since she was born, unlike some people, tsk tsk."
After saying that, he shook his head in disgust, pushed Zhao Tingnu aside, and swaggered into the supply and marketing cooperative.
