"What?"
"Did that jinx find a job in the city?"
"Go work as a nanny and take care of other people's children?"
"What a cheap life! She won't breastfeed her own child, but instead breastfeeds someone else's!"
...
Upon hearing her eldest son's words, Li Chunmiao raised a series of questions.
In her mind, even if Zhou Shuixian could find a job in the city, it would only be to ask for connections to help take care of other people's children.
Although terms like "nanny" or "wife" are no longer allowed, well-off families in the city still hire people to help with cooking and childcare at home. If someone asks, they say it's a relative from the countryside who came to help.
Therefore, Li Chunmiao subconsciously felt that Zhou Shuixian was this kind of person.
To her surprise, no sooner had she finished speaking than Wang Daniu in front of her began to show off with a smug look on his face:
"Mom, you're short-sighted. What do you mean by working as a nanny in the city?"
Wang Daniu sat casually on the bench, his face full of pride: "I heard from the people in Jianshan Brigade that Zhou Shuixian's sister-in-law is really capable. She is actually the daughter of a division commander in Haicheng. The Zhou family has become successful. Zhou Shuixian and her sisters all work in the Chinese medicine factory in the provincial capital, and they are all permanent employees."
Tell me, with a wife like her, am I rich now?
Hearing her eldest son's words, Li Chunmiao laughed along: "Oh my, I knew that jinx had some good luck on him."
Look around, how many families in our countryside dote on their daughters like his?
Even though she's married, her family is still helping her find a job.
Come on, boss, let's go to the provincial capital and enjoy ourselves.
"I've suffered my whole life, but I never imagined that in my old age I could enjoy your blessings!"
"Hmph, Mom, this is nothing."
Follow me, and your good fortune is yet to come.
Zhou Shuixian is a woman, yet she has a job. If I make a scene, will the Zhou family not help me find a job?
By then, you'll be an elderly person in a dual-income family; just wait to enjoy your retirement!
Upon hearing her eldest son's words, Li Chunmiao's face beamed with joy.
He quickly found a baby carrier, ready to carry his eldest grandson on his back and follow Wang Daniu towards the county town...
However, just before leaving, the two realized that they had never traveled far from home. The farthest they had ever been was to a county town. The provincial capital was a big place. Could the two of them manage?
"How about we call Erniu and Sanniu?"
Wang Daniu was a little scared and tentatively said.
As soon as he finished speaking, Li Chunmiao thought it made some sense: "Let's call Si Niu and Wu Niu together too. If that woman doesn't listen to us, we have more people!"
And so, the entire Wang family hurried off to the provincial capital.
Wang's two daughters-in-law also wanted to go, but now that the New Year is over and spring has arrived, they have to stay at home and wait for the team to notify them when work will start.
In addition, the chickens and pigs at home also need to be taken care of.
"Sister-in-law, do you think it's feasible for Mom and my eldest brother to go?"
The second daughter-in-law of the Wang family watched the Wang family members leave, her eyes filled with undisguised envy.
When Wang's third daughter-in-law heard her second sister-in-law's question, she paused for a moment and said, "I guess it's a bit difficult. After all, when my eldest sister-in-law and eldest brother separated, they signed a letter of severance. My eldest sister-in-law doesn't even want her own son, so why would she want my eldest brother?"
Wang's second daughter-in-law was somewhat unable to accept this outcome. After all, she also hoped that Wang Daniu could win back Zhou Shuixian. If Wang Daniu could get the Zhou family to help him find a job, she could also let her husband try to ask.
Even if her husband didn't have a job, with Zhou Shuixian and Wang Daniu both having jobs, and the family not having separated, wouldn't this big family's life be better than before?
Most importantly, with the grandmother taking her eldest grandson away, she can finally feed her own daughter her fill.
Several months after giving birth, my daughter still looks like a sick little chick, while my older child, who doesn't have a mother, is growing up healthy and chubby.
"Sister-in-law, you're overthinking it. What mother can easily abandon her own child?"
Don't be fooled by how heartless your sister-in-law seemed when she left. When she actually sees Da Bao, she'll definitely be unable to resist wanting to take him and hold him...
As long as Zhou Shuixian can't resist hugging the child, how could she not use the child to control this bitch?
Hmph, they're all sisters-in-law, so why does Zhou Shuixian get to live a better life?
After hearing her second sister-in-law's words, Wang's third daughter-in-law was speechless, but she didn't say anything.
She wanted to see what kind of trouble this family would cause in the provincial capital.
If Zhou Shuixian still resolutely ignores the Wang family and refuses to return to them, shouldn't I also ask my own family to come and discuss the divorce?
The men of the Wang family are all useless, but they're good at beating people, especially their wives—each one is more formidable than the last.
She has been married into the Wang family for almost two years. She finally got pregnant, but instead of receiving any care, she miscarried last month due to the torment of her wife and that awful man.
It was clearly her mother-in-law who forced her to wash clothes by the river in the dead of winter, causing her to fall and miscarry. Yet, her husband and mother-in-law still scolded her for being useless, saying she couldn't even save a child, and called her a barren hen.
snort.
The hens in the house eat more than she does, but she wants to lay eggs. How can she do that?
After the miscarriage, she didn't get any rest and still had to work every day, so she felt her lower back was getting more and more painful.
She worried that if she didn't leave the Wang family soon, she would die sooner or later.
After hearing about Zhou Shuixian's situation today, she also wanted to observe and see if the Wang family could gain any advantage from Zhou Shuixian. If so, she might consider continuing to stay and live her life there...

"Brother Longyi..."
Zhou Jingyun has been in the provincial capital for almost half a month, and the joint venture factory project is almost finalized.
As he was busy going out to handle the details, he heard someone behind him calling his previous code name.
Turning around, he saw Cheng Jiao, Cheng Ming's sister, whom he had worked with in the black market before. Remembering what he had promised Miao Miao, he quickly took a few steps back, pretending to keep his distance.
Cheng Jiao's family has been pressuring her to go on blind dates and find a partner lately, which is making her very annoyed, so she decided to go out for a walk.
Little did she know, fate had brought her together with Long Yi, whom she had always admired.
Although she had already learned from her brother that Long Yi's real name was Zhou Jingyun, Cheng Jiao wanted to emphasize the special nature of her relationship with Zhou Jingyun, so she chose to continue calling him by his code name.
She walked towards Zhou Jingyun with great joy, expecting him to at least smile and nod at her.
To her surprise, this damned man not only took a few steps back, but also looked at her indifferently.
That look in her eyes wasn't like she was looking at her friend's sister; it was clearly like she was looking at a stranger.
In an instant, Cheng Jiao felt so wronged: she had taken such the initiative, why did Brother Longyi still reject her?
With red eyes, she looked at Zhou Jingyun with a pitiful expression: "Brother Longyi, why are you doing this to me?"
