Chapter 133 I Don’t Want to Serve
"Dividing the family doesn't mean severing the relationship..." Gu's mother kept muttering.
I don’t know if the couple listened to it.
In fact, if there was a way, Zhao Qingmu and Zhang Ning didn't want to separate. Zhang Ning thought about the conflicts between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law after marriage, but she didn't think about the conflicts between sister-in-law and sister-in-law.
She felt that she was very nice to her sister-in-law Qingyu. When she first moved into their house, she gave all the candies in her pocket to her.
Later, Aoki bought her a box of vanishing cream. When her sister-in-law wanted to use it, she gave it to her.
She was never stingy with her.
It’s just that the sister-in-law always speaks with a sneer and a weird tone, as if she doesn’t like her, but then she turns around and talks to her normally.
This time they quarreled, she was cooking, and she wanted her sister-in-law to go outside and fetch some firewood, but she said she would not go, and added,
"Sister-in-law, you can work while you are pregnant. Pregnant women are not that valuable, and firewood is not heavy either. You can carry the baby yourself."
Zhang Ning was very confused. She was working. She didn't say she didn't want to work. She was cooking!
It's okay to say it once or twice, but if you say it every time, even a clay figure has a temper.
Then the two of them started arguing.
Her sister-in-law pushed her, and she fell to the ground because she may not have stood steadily. But it was okay at that time. She got up and went outside to get firewood to cook.
My stomach started to ache slightly at night.
She thought she could not keep the baby, but she was fine after two days of bed rest.
That's what she said. She told her husband that she wanted to separate the family business and that she couldn't get along with her sister-in-law Zhao Qingyu. She was simply looking for trouble.
They can't get along even in the same yard.
She must go out and build a house on her own, even a mud house will do, as long as she doesn't get involved with her sister-in-law.
She is also willing to live in a mud house.
She had more than 40 yuan on her, which her family gave her when she went to the countryside, and she used this as starting capital.
Who knew that my parents-in-law were unwilling to divide the family property.
In fact, the forty yuan was enough to build the mud house, but Aoki said that the money was hers and could not be touched as a dowry.
He said he had a way, so he went to borrow money from his uncle and aunt. Who knew he actually borrowed a hundred yuan.
Zhang Ning felt that they would have a good life in the future.
No more annoying sister-in-law, and no need to deal with parents-in-law.
She didn't care what her parents-in-law thought of her. It was impossible for her to divide the family just to cater to their thoughts.
After all, she is the daughter-in-law, an outsider, the sister-in-law's cousin. No matter how she behaves, at most she can be criticized or scolded, nothing can happen to her.
In the end, she was the one who suffered.
Fortunately, the man she found was a good man who always stood by her and listened to her.
With money, dividing the family property is not a difficult matter, and there is no need for the consent of Sister Gu and her husband.
Just pull the bricks and build the house.
But elder sister Gu and her husband were very angry. They did not agree to divide the family property, but their son insisted on doing so.
So when the property was divided, they didn't give much, just some food and some personal items for the couple, but not a penny.
Zhao Qingmu didn't care anymore. He had known for a long time that among the three siblings, their parents seemed to like their younger sister more. When his younger sister did something wrong, they would scold her harshly.
There was no action at all.
Anyway, they have already separated from the family, so they don't have to hand over anything in the future. If the couple works hard, they will definitely be able to live a good life.
It didn't cost more than a hundred dollars to build the new house, but he kept it for now, as it would cost money when his wife gave birth.
This girl Zhao Qingyu is indeed a little smart. Zhao Qingmu and Zhang Ning were having conflicts with Sister Gu and her husband over the division of the family property.
She said, "Mom and Dad, if your elder brother and sister-in-law don't care about you, I will take care of you when I grow up and provide for you in your old age."
Well, Sister Gu and her husband were very relieved to hear this. They felt that raising a son was pointless, as it was like marrying a wife and forgetting the mother.
No matter what Sister Gu and her husband thought, Zhao Qingmu and Zhang Ning were living a good life.
I planted a vegetable garden in the backyard of the new house and raised a nest of chickens.
Zhao Qingmu worked in the fields while Zhang Ning cleaned the house and cooked.
Zhang Ning was right about Zhao Qingmu. He was indeed a good man and a good husband. He knew that it was not easy for his wife to be pregnant, so he tried to get up an hour earlier in the morning and do all the housework.
When I go to the county, I will also bring delicious food for my wife, such as face cream.
Anyway, I will give my wife the best within my ability.
However, Zhang Ning's expected production period is during the busy autumn harvest season, probably in mid-October, and everyone is busy.
On the second day of July, when Sister Gu and her friends came, they talked about this matter.
Mother Gu said to Sister Gu, "Don't go out to work when the time comes. You have to take care of your daughter-in-law while she's giving birth and take care of her during the confinement period."
Sister Gu said, "My family was busy at that time, and besides, they might not hire us."
Gu's second and third sisters also heard that Aoki and his wife had lived separately before.
Second sister Gu said, "Sister, you are saying this, you still don't remember that Qingmu and the others lived separately, right?"
"You and Zhang Ning have never had a fight, have you? Just because of your separation, the two families have been at odds with each other. You didn't care when your daughter-in-law gave birth to a baby. What do you think, Qingmu?"
Let’s not talk about Zhang Ning first, Qingmu must hate them to death.
Originally, his parents didn't give him anything when they were separated, and this daughter-in-law didn't even help when she gave birth to a child. Qingmu felt very uncomfortable and something was wrong.
The two families just live separately, it doesn't mean they will never have any contact with each other again.
Why are you like this?
Second Sister Gu thought that if her son and daughter-in-law wanted to separate in the future, she would be very happy, because there would be many conflicts when the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law lived together.
Sister Gu snorted, "Think whatever you want about him. It was him who separated from us, not us."
"Since you decided to separate, you should have thought about the fact that there would be no one to take care of your wife after she gives birth."
Sister Gu gets angry when she talks about this. Her eldest son was so determined at the time that it was useless for the couple to talk. He just wanted to separate and live on his own.
"Besides, when we had children, we spent the confinement period like that, without anyone to take care of us. It's okay, we all got through it that way."
Third Sister Gu was helpless, "Sister, the past was the past and the present is the present. In the past, we didn't have the conditions and the in-laws we met were not good either, so we could only endure it."
"Should we let our children suffer the same pain we have suffered?"
Mother Gu also disagreed, "Big Boss, you are really getting more and more confused. Didn't Qingmu and Zhang Ning separate before? You still remember it and don't even care about your daughter-in-law giving birth."
"That's the most difficult time for women. If you don't lend a hand, don't expect others to take care of you when you get old."
Mrs. Gu never thought that the words her mother-in-law said would one day come out of her daughter's mouth.
We are both women and have given birth to children. How can you say that?
Sister Gu said, "Come on, mother, second sister, third sister, please stop talking. I don't expect them to serve us."
