As for the chicken, it was killed and divided into several meals, saying it would be stewed into soup.
But when Wang Xiaohui drank the soup, she could hardly taste the chicken soup anymore.
As for the chicken, she ate all four chicken feet and four chicken wings, and didn't see anything else.
As for the brown sugar and eggs that Qiu Yuefang had snatched up, Wang Xiaohui never saw them again.
When Qiu Yuefang took the food away, she said, "I'll cook it for you."
But doesn’t she know how many eggs she ate and how much brown sugar water she drank?
Thinking back on this, Wang Xiaohui's eyes were filled with tears that she had been holding back.
Tears filled her eyes, and Wang Xiaohui didn't dare to open her mouth, she could only shake her head.
As she rocked the baby, the tears in her eyes dripped onto the baby's blanket.
Gu Jinfeng looked down and immediately asked, "What's wrong with this child?"
"Why are you still crying?"
"Oh, don't cry, don't cry. Tell us what's wrong with you and we will give you some advice," Zhong Meixian heard Wang Xiaohui crying, took a look at her and hurried to persuade her.
Wang Xiaohui quickly raised her hand to wipe it, then shook her head, "It's okay, it's okay."
She said it was okay, but the more she wiped away her tears, the more she cried.
I don’t know if it’s because of the mother-daughter connection, but as she cried, the child in her arms also started crying.
Wen Tang went over, took the child in his arms, coaxed him, and carried him out of the kitchen.
At the door of the main hall, Gu Yanli saw Wen Tang walking around with the child in his arms, so he walked over.
First, he reached out to tease the child in Wen Tang's arms, and then asked, "Why are you holding a child?"
Wen Tang didn't bother to answer him. Instead, he looked at the child who had stopped crying after being hooked on his finger, and immediately said, "She seems to like you more. Come on, hold her."
As he said that, he stuffed the child into Gu Yanli's arms.
Not to mention, Gu Yanli can hold a gun and his wife, but he has never held a child.
The child was placed in his arms. He took it with great caution, only to find that the child was too light.
As soon as the child was out of his hands, Wen Tang said, "You can comfort him. I need to go back and listen for a while."
After Wen Tang finished speaking, he turned and went into the kitchen.
Gu Yanli wanted to call her, but because there were many people in the yard today, he could only hold her in his arms.
Fortunately, the child did not cry in his arms.
He imitated Wen Tang, walking back and forth, swaying gently, so as not to let the child cry.
When Wen Tang ran back to the kitchen, Wang Xiaohui was choking with sobs. "My mother-in-law disliked me for giving birth to a girl because she thought I ate too much."
"She took all the eggs and brown sugar my parents sent. If we were to cook something meaty, she'd disappear before it even hit the table, even though I was with my child. As a result, I had no milk, and the child... was very thin."
Chi Yue didn't understand, "Why did you let her take the things your parents sent?"
Wang Xiaohui replied timidly, "She took it away during the confinement period, and said she would make it for me later."
"And then... I didn't give it to you," she rubbed her hands and said softly.
"If I didn't give it to you, you won't ask for it?" This time it was Wen Tang who spoke.
Wang Xiaohui shrank her neck again. "She...she speaks harshly. If I go to get it, she will definitely say something bad about me."
Wen Tang didn't understand. "Let her talk. She won't die."
But Wang Xiaohui blushed, as if being talked about was a big deal.
Wen Tang couldn't help but said, "Sister, in this world, except for life and death, everything else is trivial and not worth mentioning."
Gu Jinfeng thought Wen Tang was right, but she couldn't help but remind Wen Tang, "Sister-in-law, Xiaoyue calls me sister, and you have to call me niece-in-law."
Before Wen Tang could respond, Wang Xiaohui quickly called her "Auntie."
Wen Tang: "..."
"Oh, oh, okay, niece-in-law, niece-in-law, I remember it."
"I'm of a very high generation," Wen Tang was a little confused, but not embarrassed at all. When she said this, she even laughed at herself.
Her reaction made Wang Xiaohui couldn't help but laugh.
She admired Wen Tang very much. If she were in his shoes, she would probably blush with shame.
Wen Tang saw her smile, then patted her shoulder and said with an elder's air, "Niece-in-law, you must remember that no matter how big the matter is today, it will be a small matter tomorrow. What is a big matter this year will become a story next year. No matter how big the matter is in this life, it will be judged by others in the next life."
"Also, once we're gone, let alone in the afterlife, even three to five years from now, when someone mentions us again, those around us might spend a lot of time thinking about it."
"So, don't put so much psychological burden on yourself."
"Think it over, think it over."
"Take back what belongs to you, and don't let it go to those who don't like you."
Wang Xiaohui nodded thoughtfully, "Okay, I'll take note."
Wen Tang didn't say anything else.
After all, they and Wang Xiaohui can only be considered neighbors at most. No matter how bad Qiu Yuefang is, she is still her mother-in-law.
When people close the door, they want to live together as a family.
Without further ado, the topic quickly turned to other matters.
Everyone ate melon seeds and peanuts and chatted.
It was a rare occasion for Wang Xiaohui to have someone to help her take care of her children, so she sat for a while longer.
Her child was also well-behaved. He didn't cry at all when being held by Gu Yanli.
When there were no more people writing couplets outside, Wang Xiaohui didn't sit down anymore. She asked Lin Jingshen to help her write a couplet and then went back.
Gu Jinfeng was about to give her the two eggs she brought.
Although Wang Xiaohui looks thin and weak, she is very persistent in this matter.
She refused to take the two eggs, even though Gu Jinfeng said, "Take them home and cook them to eat, and also to provide some milk for the baby."
Wang Xiaohui's eyes just turned red, but she still didn't want the eggs.
Since she was like this, Gu Jinfeng didn't insist anymore.
He only said, "Then carry the child slowly on your way back and come play when you have time."
Wang Xiaohui nodded, picked up the child and quickly went home.
After everyone left, Wen Tang couldn't help but ask, "Is her mother-in-law the Fourth Lady of the Lin Family?"
Gu Jinfeng nodded.
Wen Tang thought, "I never thought her mother-in-law was such a powerful person."
Gu Jinfeng also said, "Whether it's powerful or not depends on who it's facing."
Wen Tang nodded in agreement. "If she meets someone like me and Yueyue, I'll definitely make her drink a pot of wine."
Gu Jinfeng: "..."
Zhong Meixian “…”
They thought to themselves: If they met someone like you, no matter who they were, they would be in trouble.
I have seen mothers-in-law scolding their daughters-in-law, but I have never seen daughters-in-law scolding their mothers-in-law.
What are their days as mothers-in-law?
I can’t mention it. If I do, I’ll just shed a shed of bitter tears.
When Gu Jin and Xu Huaishan came to ask Lin Jingshen to write couplets, it was almost time for lunch.
Gu Jinfeng and the others asked to invite them to stay for dinner. Since it was New Year's Day and they were serious relatives, Gu Jin and Xu Huaishan did not insist on leaving.
Instead of leaving, Gu Jin went to sit in the kitchen.
Xu Huaishan gave the couplet paper he brought to Lin Jingshen and asked him to write it.
Although Xu Huaishan had separated from Xu Ancheng and the others, the amount of couplet paper he brought was still the same as in previous years, which showed that it was for the whole family.
