Chapter 203: Hard to Breathe



Wang Dong's eyes were red with anxiety. He was dating Li Meiling with the intention of getting married. He thought she thought the same, which was why she took the initiative to hug and kiss him. He was not an open-minded person, but he was ecstatic about her initiative.

It was because of Li Meiling's initiative that Wang Dong threw all his feelings into this woman without hesitation, and even ignored his sister's words of advice.

But reality slapped him hard in the face.

I don't understand how a woman can be so cruel. How can someone sell out her feelings for such a small benefit and even give up her own reputation.

Seeing her sigh silently, Li Meiling walked forward and hugged his waist, burying her head in his chest, feeling endlessly aggrieved.

"Actually, I don't want this to happen either. I'm also reluctant to leave you, but my mom and her family are worried that I'll suffer in the countryside. When they heard you have two older brothers, they were worried that I wouldn't get along well with my sisters-in-law. Actually, there's a way to convince my mom."

When the warm body hugged him, Wang Dong stiffened. No matter how many times he was hugged, he was still not used to being hugged like this in public. But he had to admit that he liked this feeling and was greedy for this feeling. He felt so uncomfortable when he heard that Li Meiling's family was against it.

Hearing his aggrieved voice, a glimmer of hope rose in my heart.

As long as Li Meiling is not unwilling, they still have hope and they can overcome all difficulties and be together.

"What method?"

Li Meiling was embarrassed. "Don't ask. Let's just assume that we are not destined to be together. I know this is absolutely impossible."

"How do you know it's impossible if you didn't tell me?" Wang Dong's tone was filled with anxiety.

Li Meiling seemed to be forced into a corner by him and had to speak in a low voice.

"My mom thinks it's hard for a large family to get along. You know my temper, and I definitely wouldn't get along with your eldest and second sisters-in-law. My mom said that if we can split up the family, we can find someone from the countryside. Also, if we split up the family, we need to have a place to live, preferably a separate house and courtyard, so we don't have to live with the sisters-in-law. Look, Lu Xiao also has two older brothers, they have their own houses and courtyards, and they even built four red brick houses."

The light in Wang Dong's eyes gradually dimmed. He understood what Li Meiling said. She was asking him for a house and a yard.

Although their life was better than others, it was not easy to build a red brick house.

What's more, he has two older brothers and sisters-in-law. Even if his father has money to build a house, it is impossible for him to build a few red brick houses just for him and let him live alone.

The three brothers in his family have always been harmonious, and his parents are proud of the harmony in their family. Li Meiling's idea is simply a poke in his parents' spine.

"Let me think about it, let me think about it carefully..."

Wang Dong didn't say anything else. He found Li Meiling because he wanted to get a result. He was so stressed out from being stuck in this dilemma every day that he couldn't breathe. He didn't expect this to be the result, which made it even more difficult for him to breathe.

Li Meiling lowered her eyes, hiding the calculation in them.

She had just gotten the job at the elementary school, and it would be embarrassing to break up with Wang Dong at this time.

What's more, the Red Star Brigade is under the control of the branch secretary, so she would not offend the branch secretary by abandoning him.

………………

After the house is built, Lu Xiao can slowly do the rest of the work by himself.

Jiang Wanwan also wanted to clean up the house before the spring planting. Even if she couldn't live in it, it would be comfortable to look at it after it had been left to air-condition.

Jiang Wanwan is responsible for the design, Lu Xiao is responsible for the work, and he can also supplement her in some areas.

Watching my little home change day by day, I feel an indescribable sense of accomplishment.

That day, Chunshu came running in hurriedly, crying. It turned out that Chunsheng had gone to the elementary school again and was discovered by his sister-in-law. Zhang Xiulan felt embarrassed for her and was beating the child at home. Chunshu didn't know what to do, so she ran to find them.

He had heard from his second sister-in-law Wang Sanni before that his eldest sister-in-law had beaten Xiao Chunsheng more than once because of school issues.

Because the division of the family was someone else's business, although Jiang Wanwan felt sorry for the two children and had no intention of intervening in the matter, the children now came to them.

He turned to look at Lu Xiao. The man pursed his lips, his dark eyes brewing a storm, and he was obviously very angry.

Chunsheng was a child he had taken care of, so naturally the feelings between them were different.

"Wanwan, I'll go over and take a look."

Lu Xiao said as he led Xiao Chunshu to leave. Jiang Wanwan followed him and said, "I'll go take a look too."

Before entering the old house, I heard a quarrel inside. It was no longer a matter of the sister-in-law beating the child, but had escalated into a verbal dispute between adults.

Mother Lu protected the child behind her and looked at Zhang Xiulan with a stern face.

Zhang Xiulan was not to be outdone. "Mom, you can control everything, but you can't control me and my child. Chunsheng is my son. I couldn't say a few words to him or slap him back then. If you don't like it, that's fine. You have to pay for the child's tuition. Not only that, but this little brat is eating me out of poverty. Chunsheng is so old now, and if he doesn't earn work points, he won't have anything to eat. You have to take care of his food, right? I know you're in a dilemma, but who asked you to divide the family in the first place? If you can't take care of his tuition and food, don't bother me."

Lu Jie couldn't stand it after hearing this. He couldn't stand getting angry with his sister-in-law, so he went straight to his eldest brother Lu Hui and said, "Brother, tell me what happened when the family was divided. Outsiders don't know, but our family knows it, don't you? You still have shamelessness. You let a child like Chunsheng work in the fields to earn work points. Look at the villagers, which family asks their children to earn work points? You still say it's natural and blame mother for the division of the family. What does this have to do with mother?"

"Uncle, what you said is wrong. I don't care what other families do. I have two sons now, and I have to plan for their future. Building a house and getting married will cost money. If I don't make money early, how will I build a house and get married? I'm not like some people who can build a house just by saying it."

As soon as Jiang Wanwan heard Zhang Xiu Lan's words as she entered the yard, she knew that her sister-in-law might have imagined something new when their family built a new house.

Lu Jie was still clinging to his elder brother's attitude, while Lu Hui hid under the eaves, with his hands in his pockets and his neck shrunk.

Under pressure, he stammered, "Your sister-in-law is right. What's the point of going to school? I might as well earn a few more work points at home."

Lu Jie also lost his temper. He had no choice but to deal with such a cowardly elder brother.

Lu Xiao clenched his fists, and it was obvious that he was very angry. He wanted to go up and punch Brother Hutu.

Jiang Wanwan understood the man's temperament. She took his arm and said with a smile, "Brother, that's not right. This is a new society, and it's the starting stage of building a country. The talents needed in various positions in the country are knowledgeable and intelligent. Brother, haven't you heard the saying that knowledge changes destiny? Building a country in the future will not just be about farming and making contributions to the country."
