The midwife didn't expect Wang Hua to ask such a question. How could she say behind Li Ping's back that she had married badly, but to her face, she said that Shen Wu and Xu Yin had married well?
But when people asked her in person what she thought of her man, the midwife was really at a loss as to how to answer.
Finally, he said, "You asked all these questions, which means you have your own judgment. They wouldn't ask such questions."
"You're not from our village, so you don't know about Lu Lao Er when he was young. When he was young, Lu's Lao Er was good at studying and spoke well. He was very popular with young girls and he was also smart."
"Other families don't value the second child, but yours has been highly valued since childhood."
…
The midwife looked at Wang Hua and said, "Sometimes, people don't have to be good people all the time. Like these two, it's better if they have some thorns. They are fine with others being nice to them, and they are also fine with others being mean to them."
"Take your eldest sister, for example. Whoever dared to do her wrong would smear feces and urine on people's doors and windows, and even lie on your second uncle's roof, almost pouring urine on him. In the middle of summer, maggots were crawling all over your second uncle's house, and he was so angry that he wanted to beat her, but your eldest sister took a kitchen knife and walked out. People like this will never be wronged wherever they go. Your eldest sister chose her own partner to marry, and when she got married, your stingy mother-in-law had to give her the same gifts as her son, and nothing less would be tolerated."
Chen Wu listened to the midwife's description of the scene and found it unimaginable. This was even more terrifying than being beaten by Xu Yin.
No wonder the old man was so afraid of Lu Qing that day!
Even Xu Yin felt conflicted and impressed after hearing this.
How can a person be so cruel!
Not to mention wiping feces and urine, Xu Yin didn't even want to look at that dry toilet for another second. She would feel dirty if she stayed there for even a second longer.
The state-owned restaurant was closed at this time. Chen Wu didn't expect that Lu Xuan and Lu Ye actually brought food and brought over their pots and bowls and chopsticks.
Lu Xuan put it down.
Smelling cigarettes, he saw Boss Lu smoking, so he walked over and knocked on the window: "It's out."
"Third brother, I am your eldest brother. How can I talk to my eldest brother like that?" Boss Lu was dissatisfied.
Lu Xuan looked indifferent: "Then don't eat."
When the topic of food came up, Boss Lu's stomach started growling with hunger, and he put out his cigarette.
Lu Xuan still felt a little disgusted with him: "Let's get rid of the smell on you first."
Lu Xuan first served Chen Wu some rice. "I made this. Eat it for now. I'll take you to the state-owned restaurant tomorrow morning."
"There's nothing to eat right now, so my brother went to some people's houses near the hospital, gave them some money, and borrowed all their pots and pans. Everyone, hurry up and eat, because we have to deliver it to them soon."
As he spoke, he served the rice.
Wang Hua observed the eldest brother Lu, the third brother Lu, and the fourth brother Lu. In fact, the second brother Lu was not like anyone.
Lu Lao Er was much better than Lu Lao Da. He spoke more pleasantly and brought food and drinks every time he came. He would also play with Pan Er when he got home. Lu Lao Da never did these things. But Lu Lao Er had never done anything like helping to cook and serve food...

It wasn't until late at night that the doctor pushed the patient out of the operating room. Boss Lu came to greet him and asked, "My son is out?"
"It's a daughter!"
Boss Lu frowned, "Not my son? Did you switch my son?"
"I've heard that there are cases of babies being swapped in hospitals?"
The nurse was annoyed by his unreasonable behavior and said, "You only have one baby now!"
When Boss Lu confirmed that it was really a daughter, he was extremely disappointed. The child didn't even want to be held in his arms, so Wang Hua held her and then fed Li Ping.
Li Ping had been looking forward to having a son for many months, and she usually ate sour food. When she heard that it was a daughter, disappointment was written all over her pale face.
If Shen Wu had almost failed to give birth and asked to be sent to the hospital, she would not even bother to look at the couple's faces when she saw them.
This child also suffered when he was born in their family.
When the sun rose, Chen Wu was too lazy to wait in the hospital anymore and made an appointment with Xu Yin to go to the state-owned restaurant for dinner: "I have a class at 10 o'clock in the afternoon and three classes in the afternoon, so I'm leaving now."
The donkey carts and ox carts in the village were all here. Seeing that Li Ping was safe, everyone else wanted to leave too.
The midwife looked at Boss Lu and said, "You don't need to pay me for the delivery. Just settle the hospital bill."
Boss Lu shouted again that he had no money.
"I can't leave the hospital for a while." Lu Xuan said: "I'll go back and ask my parents to come over, you go home and get the money."
Boss Lu: "Can't you pay for me first?"
Lu Xuan: "I didn't bring any money."
Giving money to Boss Lu is no different from throwing meat buns at a dog.
The state-owned restaurant was already open. Chen Wu bought breakfast, and Lu Xuan bought food for the midwife and Uncle Zhou. He couldn't let the people who helped pay for it themselves.
Uncle Zhou smiled and said, "Thanks to you, I can still eat buns."
"You two will have a prosperous life now. If you get pregnant, come to me. I've been a midwife for many years, so I know a little bit about prenatal and postnatal care. I also learned from the doctor, and I know a little bit about disinfection..."
After eating at the state-owned restaurant, Wang Hua was in a state of confusion. Finally, she looked at Chen Wu and said, "Third sister-in-law, can you accompany me to the machinery factory?"
"I originally wanted to go by myself, but I don't dare now."
…
Chen Wu's class today was at around ten o'clock, two periods in a row. Looking at Wang Hua's expression, she nodded in agreement.
Uncle Zhou drove the car to the vicinity of the machinery factory. Xu Yin, Chen Wu and Wang Hua got out of the car, and Lu Xuan left everyone else in the car, including Pan'er.
"Uncle San, I want to go find my dad." Pan'er said in a low voice.
Lu Xuan said calmly: "No."
Pan'er looked up at him and whispered, "Okay."
He's so fierce, wouldn't Third Aunt be afraid?
