Lin Wenxuan just thought that Liang Shengdi was still angry, so he thought that if he didn't want to do it, then forget it, since he didn't have anything to do in the next two days anyway.
Then I said you should just rest well at home and remember to get up and eat every day.
Zhang Xiaonv was very dissatisfied with her behavior, but after being lectured by her son for three consecutive days, she also knew how outrageous her previous words were, so she tried hard to endure it.
Every day he carried Xiao Yulan on his back and did the work that used to belong to Liang Shengdi.
Dashan's mother was carrying a basin of clothes to the river to wash. When she passed by the Lin family, she saw Zhang Xiaonv feeding chickens there and was a little gossipy.
"Hey~ Wenxuan's mom, are you still feeding the chickens today? Your daughter-in-law hasn't left the room yet?"
"Who knows! She really thought she married into an imperial family and lay lazy in bed every day." Zhang Xiaonv curled her lips but didn't say much.
Although she was the best friend of Dashan's mother, she also had some problems with this matter. If she told others, they would probably say that she was unreliable as an elder. She was not satisfied with the publicity of her family's excitement to the world. She changed the subject and asked the other party,
"Dashan's mother, your daughter-in-law has been married for two months. Why are you still washing the clothes? Doesn't she do any work?"
When Zhang Xiaonv asked this question, her eyes sparkled, as if she had peeked into someone's little family secret.
According to local custom, a newly married daughter-in-law doesn't work for the first month. But it's been almost two months, and Dashan's mother still takes the Xu family's clothes to wash every day. Could her daughter-in-law also be a lazy one?
Alas...young people nowadays...
Dashan's mother chuckled, came over and whispered to Zhang Xiaonv,
"Wenxuan's mom, I haven't told anyone about this except you! You have to keep it a secret... Hehe... My daughter-in-law is pregnant! I guess she got pregnant on the very night of her wedding! What a speed! Of course I won't let her do what I can do!"
Zhang Xiaonv: ...
Although he kept saying congratulations to Dashan's mother, when he turned around and went back to the house, his face fell a little. He sat in the house holding Xiao Yulan and said something sarcastic to her fair and tender face,
"Look at the aunt next door! She's both capable of working and giving birth! And then look at your mother! She doesn't care about you! She doesn't care about this family! She won't even give you a brother!"
"All day long! I just lie in bed! I don't know if my back will hurt from lying there!"
Because the tone was sarcastic, the voice had some ups and downs. Little Yulan laughed as she listened to it. She grabbed her grandmother's hand and babbled while drooling.
Seeing that cute look, Zhang Xiaonu couldn't be angry anymore. She picked up the baby and kept saying "Oh oh oh~" to comfort him.
"Want to go out? Then grandma can carry you out again, okay? Let's go to the fields to find your father. Your father works so hard. He grows food for you every day in the fields."
…
Liang Shengdi was still lying on the bed. The walls were covered with mud, and if a needle dropped outside, one could hear the sound inside, not to mention the loud voice of Zhang Xiaonu who was making indirect complaints.
As the door creaked shut, she yawned, turned over and continued to lie down.
I have to say that lying down these days made her feel relaxed both physically and mentally.
Still dreaming sweet dreams.
I dreamed that I was full every day, with endless meat and soup to drink.
She dreamed that she was lying in a cave, with rain falling outside. She made a fire in the cave and roasted a bird. There was a fragrance... There was no fragrance in the dream, but Liang Shengdi felt that she could smell it.
It smells so good.
Or squat on the rocks by the river and use a helmet to catch fish.
Where did the helmet come from?
Liang Shengdi thought about it and it seemed that Village Chief Lin and his men had stripped it from the Japanese. Every day, those who went to the roof to stand guard had to change into Japanese clothes and helmets just in case.
Lin Wenxuan said that both his clothes and helmet were stinking.
Liang Shengdi was about to fall asleep again in a daze. Before falling asleep, she was still thinking,
Then she should not use the helmet to fish, right?
It stinks so much that the fish will die.
Well, this time I hope I can conjure up a fishing line in my dream, which will be convenient.
***
Lin Wenxuan thought he could rest for a few days, but he rested until the summer harvest.
During this period, Liang Shengdi never did any work.
It was impossible for her to lie in bed all day, so Liang Shengdi would get up and move around, sitting under a big tree to enjoy the cool air, or squatting at the door to play in the mud with Yulan.
She pretended not to see the chicken and wouldn't touch it even if it laid eggs. She just didn't do any work.
But he would still show up at the table on time to eat every time it was time for dinner.
Of course, Zhang Xiaonu had lost her temper, but Liang Shengdi seemed to have suddenly changed into a different person. She didn't argue with her, nor did she cry with her. After dinner, she would put down her chopsticks and go out for a stroll, or go back to her room to sleep.
You can say whatever you want, but I remain unmoved.
No matter how angry Zhang Xiaonv was, it was useless because her son spoke well of Liang Shengdi.
If she doesn't cook for Liang Shengdi, her son will do it; if she doesn't wash the dishes for Liang Shengdi, her son will do it for her; if she doesn't take care of the child... Forget it, Yulan is her sweetheart now, and no one can take her away until the next one is born.
Anyway, all of Zhang Xiaonu's anger was like a punch hitting cotton.
There is nowhere to scatter.
She couldn't help but feel jealous when she saw the harmonious relationship between Dashan's wife and her mother next door and how happy they were every day.
Although the Dashan family spent three dollars to marry this daughter-in-law, it was money well spent!
She found out everything about the person before marrying her. Look at her daughter-in-law, how hardworking she is!
Zhang Xiaonv couldn't help but complain at home, saying that if she had known earlier, she would not have saved the money.
There is no good thing that is cheap!
Liang Shengdi ignored her. She only knew that her skeleton had finally grown some flesh after lying down for 12 hours a day and eating three meals of six-grain porridge.
And I no longer walk as lightly as before.
She found that people can only feel comfortable when they don't work.
If you take your work too seriously, no one will take you seriously.
Look at her mother-in-law. She used to say that she was the one who made all the decisions in the family, and Liang Shengdi was nothing. But now that Liang Shengdi has quit, she keeps asking, "Aren't you part of this family?"
Liang Shengdi: Love, isn’t it?
Of course, this is based on the premise that there is someone to work for you, otherwise you will starve to death.
But she really did.
Because Liang Shengdi said something on the bed that day - "You said at that time that I could have enough to eat if I married into your family." Lin Wenxuan always felt that he owed Liang Shengdi, so now she lay down and he worked willingly.
He was like a sandwich, unable to touch his mother's food and money bags, and at the same time he felt sorry for his wife's efforts. So he could only do what he could on his own.
He could vaguely sense what Liang Shengdi wanted, but he couldn't explain it clearly, or he couldn't afford to give it to her.
There's no other way, I can only wait like this.
Time passed and it was time for summer harvest.
