"Shut up. This is something you can just spout nonsense about." Grandma Han Yu was a little scared. Was this something that could be discussed openly?
"Is there no father like this in the world? Your family is ruining your son and killing your grandson. Did I say anything wrong? My daughter has been pregnant for five years and is still like this. Who is to blame?"
Aren't you afraid your son will become my live-in son-in-law? Let me tell you, I have a son, and I don't care.
"Let me tell you, my daughter's current state is all your fault. If your family causes this child to die, I'll fight you to the death."
"Don't make it sound so nice. Just admit your daughter is useless. Lots of women have miscarriages, but none are as delicate as her!"
I can't listen to this anymore; it's getting more and more awkward.
"Auntie?" Song Yan feigned surprise.
Upon seeing that it was Song Yan, Han Yu's mother simply sent Han Yu's mother-in-law back home.
Han Yu's mother-in-law was naturally unhappy about being kicked out, but there was nothing she could do about it. So she just stood there silently.
"I'm sorry you had to see this." Han Yu was resting against the blanket.
"You're in such a state right now, it's best not to cause any trouble." Song Yan saw that Han Yu was already weak enough, and if she kept getting angry or something, she would definitely be finished.
“I’m definitely not letting my daughter go back. Do you think I don’t understand what she’s thinking? Your brother-in-law already has three daughters, and she’s hoping this one in your belly is a boy! She’s only thinking about her grandson and doesn’t even consider your current situation.”
"If you give birth to a girl, she'll make you suffer every day. She'll be born with illnesses and suffer for the rest of her life."
"Mom, don't worry, I know what to do."
Song Yan was lost in thought. Whether in the countryside or the county, having a wicked mother-in-law is quite frightening.
Han Yu's mother was overjoyed to see Song Yan. This child truly had talent. Han Yu was still vomiting, but she was vomiting far more than she was swallowing.
Song Yan often came to take too much stuff, which made Han Yu feel uncomfortable. Today, she took some simple pickled wild vegetables. These were wild vegetables from her own space, and they tasted exceptionally good.
Director Liu's mother didn't say anything, seeing that Song Yan didn't look like a country girl. But this person actually brought a jar of pickled wild vegetables. They were everywhere at this time of year; how dare she bring such a paltry thing to their door!
"You're being so inconsiderate by talking about in-laws, you're talking to just anyone..."
Before she could finish speaking, Han Yu's mother pushed her out the door. "My family isn't as prestigious as yours. You should leave now and don't come back again."
With her mother standing by her side, Han Yu wasn't too upset.
It's obviously much better than before when I couldn't even drink water.
Song Yan carefully examined Han Yu's pulse again. It was somewhat better than before. Song Yan adjusted the medicinal diet again before leaving! When Song Yan arrived at the commune, the brigade's horse-drawn cart said it wouldn't leave for the time being. Song Yan leisurely strolled around the commune's black market, bought over 80 yuan worth of goods, and then left.
Song Yan was enjoying his leisurely time here, unaware that a huge fight had broken out in the brigade.
The spring rains soaked the earth. The fields changed every day. Even the grass was busy. Starting today, the entire production team began hoeing the fields.
In less than half a day, blisters appeared on Dong Mingming's hands. The pain in her hands, gripping the hoe, was excruciating. Dong Mingming's pace slowed, and she fell far behind the others.
Second Sister-in-law Cheng: "What are you doing? You're at the very back. Don't you know that if you keep this up, I'll deduct your work points!"
Dong Mingming angrily threw the hoe on the ground, "Deduct, deduct, deduct as much as you want. You've deducted all my work points! I, who do the work, am worse off than those who don't do any work."
"Look at you! You just pressed the grass down with that hoe. You didn't get rid of the grass at all. I was wrong about you." Sister-in-law Cheng was also angry. What kind of work was this?
It was Dong Mingming's turn to cook today, and she burned the rice again.
Everyone had perfectly good grain, but she cooked it until it was burnt and inedible. Everyone unanimously demanded that she compensate them for the lost grain.
Actually, she didn't even need to agree to this. Everyone just took their own food.
Li Yuanzhao started cooking again. Gao Weijie, sensing the situation, took out his own food.
Dong Mingming threw a tantrum and refused to move, so Li Yuanzhao didn't include Dong Mingming in the group.
Nobody is picky; they're happy as long as they can get food.
And today, Dong Mingming went to work on an empty stomach again.
Dong Mingming was getting increasingly frustrated with her work, not to mention that Song Yan wasn't here today. Why was she exempt from work?
At this point, Sister-in-law Cheng said she would deduct her work points.
Because she was slow, Sister-in-law Cheng said she would lose two points. A little while later she said she had hurt the seedlings.
It's just a few seedlings; she doesn't believe others haven't uprooted them. It's just Sister-in-law Cheng using this as an excuse to make trouble.
She's already tried her best to chase them away, and now they're still saying they'll deduct work points. If they deduct any more, she'll have none left. What's the point of all this hard work?
Dong Mingming no longer cared about her image and stood in the middle of the ground yelling, "Aren't you just helping Song Yan vent his anger?"
Look everyone, do I have blisters? Wasn't I working? But she kept deducting my work points. So it's like I didn't do anything at all.
What about Song Yan? Song Yan didn't work, didn't get any work points.
After all that fuss, it turns out that those who did work and those who didn't work are the same.
Is this fair?
Everyone, please be the judge: is this fair?
Second Sister-in-law Cheng: Why are you dragging Song Yan into this instead of doing your job properly?
If you want everyone to judge, then come and let everyone see the work you've done.
Look at the work she's done! The weeds are still in the soil! Look how many seedlings are missing from that row!
See if I'm lying or not?
Sister-in-law Cheng was no pushover either.
Wang Wenjuan was getting annoyed with Dong Mingming. "What's wrong now? Dong Mingming, what are you doing? You're making everyone unable to work. Can you take responsibility for that?"
