Chapter 25 There are bruises

Second sister Gu finally felt proud after giving birth to a son. She straightened her back when talking to the Wang family, especially to her sister-in-law Ge Cuilan.

She was the one who mocked her for not being able to give birth to a son!

Bullshit!

Didn't she give birth?

Ge Cuilan also came to send her blessings. It’s fine if the baby is born, just a son. She has several sons!

She still couldn't beat her, but when she saw the butter on Sister Gu's hands, her defense broke down.

Gu Yuncai is eating butter. She has given birth to several sons but never had any experience eating butter!

She laughed and said, "Where did the butter lady send it from?"

I'm talking about Gu's mother.

Oh, this question made Second Sister Gu feel happy in her heart, but she said angrily, "Yes, my mother sent it to me, and my brother-in-law also sent me a bottle. You said that these two people should just give me one bottle. It's good to eat this stuff during confinement, but you can't eat two bottles!"

"Eating too much will give you diarrhea."

Ge Cuilan was very upset. She said that although Gu Yuncai did not give birth to three sons, she had a good family, who sent her butter, eggs and chickens.

When the two of them separated, it was her parents' family who helped.

If her parents' family were so supportive, she would have moved out long ago. Why would she have to live with such a large family? It's so troublesome.

The more she thought about it, the sadder she felt. Ge Cuilan didn't want to stay any longer.

But Second Sister Gu finally found an opportunity to suppress her sister-in-law, so how could she let it go so easily? She continued, "My brother really married a good wife. You can't find a girl like Su He even with a lantern."

"You see, besides the butter, she also gave me a roll of cloth and told me to make clothes for the children."

"It would be great if you could keep the cloth to make clothes for yourself, but you gave it to us. Look at the pattern, it's so beautiful."

Ge Cuilan took a look at it and thought it looked very nice with a white background and flowers. It would be perfect to wear as a short-sleeved shirt in the summer.

"Your sister-in-law is a very nice person," she said.

Ge Cuilan really thinks Su He is a good person. She also has younger brothers and sisters, but her two younger brothers and sisters are not like Su He. When they go back home during the Chinese New Year and other holidays, they only stare at what she has in her hands. If she wants to get something from her mother's house, then they will be very upset and quarrel with her mother for three days and three nights without stopping.

Unlike Su He, who never asked and never cared.

She also took the initiative to give gifts to her aunt. It is rare to find a sister-in-law like her.

Ge Cuilan didn't stay long and came out after chatting for a while.

As for my second sister Gu, she had trouble sitting properly during the confinement period for her first three pregnancies, but she sat exceptionally smoothly and comfortably during the fourth.

I didn’t have a son before, and I felt a heavy weight on my heart, afraid that if this pregnancy was a girl, I would have to continue having children. Now that I’m better, it doesn’t matter whether I have another child in the future.

Besides, I felt even happier after showing off in front of Ge Cuilan.

Of course, a full-month banquet must be held when a son is born.

In fact, they also have to hold the ceremony for the birth of a daughter-in-law, but the first three children were born before the family was divided. The mother-in-law was in charge of the family, so they couldn't make the decision themselves.

The full-month banquet is similar to a wedding banquet, both invite the captain and secretary, relatives and friends to have a meal, not many people, just two tables.

It is summer now, and fruits and vegetables are growing in the yard, so there is no shortage of food.

The full-moon banquet was quite sumptuous, with eight dishes in total, including meat, vegetarian, cold and hot dishes.

Killed a chicken and stewed it with mushrooms.

A dish of stir-fried pork belly and beans.

I bought two fish at the supply and marketing cooperative and made a fish stew.

A plate of peanuts, a plate of cucumber and cold vegetables, and a plate of scrambled eggs.

I stir-fried pork belly, pork intestines and chili peppers, and then made some grilled eggplant.

The guests who came only visited the Wang family.

My second brother-in-law was busy entertaining guests outside, and my second sister Gu was looking after the children, so the task of cooking fell on my mother. My eldest and third sisters Gu helped out by washing and cutting vegetables.

Su He is pregnant, it has been five months now, her belly is very big, there are too many things for her to do, so she just helps to get plates and bowls.

She now took two eggplant chairs and placed them on the wall, chatting with Third Sister Gu, "Third Sister, what is your brother-in-law doing? You've come here twice, and both times you've been here alone, why haven't you seen your brother-in-law?"

They got married at the beginning of the year. Elder sister Gu and her husband came together, as did second sister Gu and her husband. Only third sister Gu came alone.

This time I went to my second sister's house to hold a full-month banquet.

"Well, he is busy working in the fields, and there is a lot of work at home, so he can't leave." When saying this, Third Sister Gu had an unnatural expression on her face.

Su He noticed it, and she thought that maybe the couple had a quarrel, so the third brother-in-law didn't come.

Just as she was wondering, she saw Third Sister Gu stretch out her arm. Su He's sharp eyes immediately noticed the large bruise on Third Sister Gu's arm.

Grabbing her hand, he asked, "Third sister, what happened to your hand?"

Third Sister Gu quickly pulled her hand back and said, "Oh, I accidentally fell."

Su He didn't believe it. If people were asked about injuries and found that they were not caused by accidental falls, they would definitely tell the details of how they fell and what they did.

Sister Gu didn't, and her eyes looked unnatural when she spoke, which clearly showed that she was lying.

Su He had a guess in his mind.

But I didn't ask right away.

Instead, after the banquet was over and the guests were sent away, the family talked to Gu's mother before eating.

After dinner, Sister Gu San and Sister Gu Da prepared to go home.

Gu's mother called a few people home.

Sister Gu was still saying, "Mom, what do you have to tell us? I still have work to do at home!"

Sister Gu also nodded.

Mother Gu glanced at the two girls and said, "It won't take you more than a few minutes."

When she got home, she got straight to the point and asked Sister Gu, "Did Li Laifu beat you again?"

Sister Gu was startled, then she knew that the matter could not be kept secret, so she nodded.

Sister Gu started to curse, "How dare he hit you!"

Gu's mother said to her daughter, "Take off your clothes and let me see them."

Sister Gu took off her clothes with tears in her eyes. Su He thought that the bruises were only on her forearms, but after taking off her clothes, she found that there were large bruises on her forearms, arms, waist, and shoulders!

When Gu's mother saw the injuries on her daughter's body, she couldn't help but shed tears.

Sister Gu cursed even more vigorously, and even cursed Li Laifu's eight generations of ancestors. Su He felt a fire burning in her heart, she was very angry!

"Your third sister had a difficult birth when she gave birth to his daughter. She hasn't gotten pregnant in more than seven years. She went to see a doctor, and the doctor said that the difficult birth had injured her body, and it would be difficult for her to get pregnant again in the future."

"Your third brother-in-law wants a son again..."

After saying this, Mother Gu sighed.

Su He, "So he took out his anger on his third sister"

Several people remained silent, which was considered as tacit agreement.
