Chapter 397 You Look Like a Stepmother
Gu Shuhe wrote the letter and took it to the post office to mail it in the afternoon when there were not many people around.
Then I met Shi Bin there.
Shi Bin was not alone, there was a woman beside him.
She looks to be about the same age as Gu Shuhe and is quite handsome, so she is definitely a perfect match for Shi Bin.
After all, Shi Bin's appearance can only be barely described as not ugly.
So her wife has a pretty and delicate appearance, which is definitely a perfect match for her.
But because Shi Bin had a blind date with Gu Shuhe, he thought his current wife was not worthy of him.
At the very least he should find someone who is slightly worse than Gu Shuhe.
Instead of the current daughter-in-law.
But his family was in a hurry and even threatened to cut off all ties with him if he didn't get married during the Chinese New Year, so he had to get married in a hurry.
So he is not satisfied with his marriage.
He felt deep down that his current wife was not worthy of him.
If only his wife were more beautiful, just a little prettier.
Because he thought his wife was not presentable, Shi Bin subconsciously blocked his wife behind him when he saw Gu Shuhe, and then greeted Gu Shuhe, "Why are you here too?"
Gu Shuhe didn't expect to meet Shi Bin here. Although she was surprised for a moment, the surprise was fleeting. She smiled and nodded, "Okay, let's go next door and send a letter to my family."
Shi Bin's wife was watching him talking to a very beautiful lesbian, so how could she be willing to be blocked by him!
His wife squeezed out from behind him, looked Gu Shuhe up and down, and asked Shi Bin, "Who is it?"
Shi Bin suddenly began to hesitate, as if there was some shameful secret between him and Gu Shuhe.
Gu Shuhe spoke quickly, "We are from the same town. When I worked at the town supply and marketing cooperative, I was quite familiar with Comrade Shi."
"One of his relatives married into our brigade, so she is also a relative of ours."
Shi Bin glanced at Gu Shuhe and nodded, "...Yes, that's right."
Gu Shuhe had no intention of having a deeper conversation, so after he finished speaking, he said, "Then you guys go ahead and get busy. I'll go mail the letter first."
Shi Bin opened his mouth and nodded.
Then, after Gu Shuhe turned around, Shi Bin's wife pushed Shi Bin hard and said, "Still looking, why don't you just go with her?"
Then she asked again, "Tell me the truth, what is your relationship with her?"
Shi Bin was quite impatient. "Didn't I say that they are relatives next to each other, and they both worked in the town before. They have only met a few times, so what kind of relationship can there be?"
His wife obviously didn't believe it, "How could it be such a coincidence?"
"There are many coincidences in this world."
After that, his wife didn't ask any more questions, but talked about the credit union. "I took out this money and lent it to your eldest brother. I don't know when he can pay us back."
When Shi Bin heard this, he subconsciously looked behind him, fearing that Gu Shuhe would turn around and hear these words.
He always feels ashamed.
Fortunately, Gu Shuhe went to the post office next door to mail a letter.
The credit union and the post office in the county town are next to each other, and the two offices share the same gate. To send a letter, you have to enter through the credit union and then go to the post office next door.
When Gu Shuhe was not around, Shi Bin said with a bad face, "We are all family. When my eldest brother has money, he will naturally pay us back. Why are you in such a hurry?"
"You haven't even lent out the money yet, and you're already thinking about the favor our family owes you?"
"Besides, this money is the betrothal money given by our family and my salary, not yours. Why are you so nosy?"
His words made his wife Liu Xiaoling lose her temper. "I was just thinking that I'm pregnant now and will give birth at the end of the year. By then I'll definitely have a lot of money to spend," Liu Xiaoling said in an aggrieved tone.
Shi Bin disagreed, "Don't I go to work every day?"
"I can't even spend all my monthly salary. Do I need you to think about all the things?"
Liu Xiaoling opened her mouth, glanced at him aggrievedly, and said nothing more.
Before leaving, Shi Bin couldn't help but look next door, wanting to take a look at Gu Shuhe.
In fact, he still wanted to talk to Gu Shuhe, but he just didn't know what to say.
I want to ask her if she is married, but I am afraid to hear her say that she is married.
So Shi Bin hesitated for a while and finally left the credit union.
After they left, Gu Shuhe also left the credit union and returned to the supply and marketing cooperative, just waiting to get off work.
When she gets off work, she will be later than usual because Shen Tingci and Shen Pengfei, father and son, both come out late.
When Wen Tang and the others received Gu Shuhe's letter, it was already half a month later, and the weather was extremely hot.
During the day, Wen Tang just wore a short-sleeved long skirt, and only put on a thin sweater on the outside in the morning and evening, otherwise she would feel very hot.
Her belly got bigger and bigger.
Because of her big belly, many things were inconvenient. In addition, in the later stages of pregnancy, Wen Tang’s physical strength was not so good, so she basically lay at home.
Now the longest distance she walks in a day is when she goes out to buy groceries with Zhong Meixian.
When the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law go out together, Zhong Meixian has to support her. Not only does the old lady support her daughter-in-law, she also kicks the broken mud and stones on the roadside while walking.
Her eyes were like X-rays. No stone or gravel within a hundred meters around the old lady could escape her kicks.
Wen Tang worries everyday, “Mom, if you accidentally fall down one day, I’ll have to find a way to take care of you!”
Zhong Meixian immediately said, "No, no, if I fall, I'll let your elder sister take care of me."
Wen Tang: "..."
"Eldest sister is with Jiajia and Nanxi!"
The old lady asked, "What's the matter?"
"I'm her biological mother. I fell and am bedridden. How can she not take care of me?"
"Then I'll have to tell others that she's unfilial."
Wen Tang: "..."
"You act like a stepmother!"
Zhong Meixian "..."
Then the old lady called her daughter-in-law stupid, "You are such a fool."
"I asked her to serve me, so you and Yan Li can have it easy!"
"You two should live your life the way you want. It's so easy."
"Oh, I see. You favor boys over girls."
The old lady stopped talking, and after a long while, she finally said, "You don't understand!"
Wen Tang said, "I understand. You just want to suck your daughter's blood to subsidize your son."
"You just want to leave all the property to your son, and leave all the filial piety to your daughter."
Zhong Meixian "..."
"I can't explain it to you!"
Wen Tang asked, "Mom, are you feeling guilty when you say this?"
The old lady lowered her head and walked forward, "Why should I feel guilty?"
“…Well, that’s what everyone does.”
"Who said that?"
"In the past, girls were given dowries when they got married, and girls rarely returned to their parents' home. How could they be taken care of?"
Zhong Meixian was not convinced, "Now it's not the same as before."
"There are no more landlords and rich people now. This is a new society."
"So, the new society is even more cruel to girls drinking blood?"
Zhong Meixian "..."
Forget it, she stopped talking.
Wen Tang asked her again, "Mom, if I give birth to twins, will you secretly give all the delicious food to your grandson and beat your granddaughter?"
