Chapter 120: Not Using a Big Girl
"Sister-in-law, this won't work. It's better for such a young child to be with his parents.
Besides, I'm just pregnant, not disabled. I don't need anyone to take care of me." Li Wanqing decisively refused.
"It's okay, I feel at ease leaving the girl with you, and I'll let her take care of your children in the future.
Wanqing, you don't understand. Giving birth to a child is tiring. It's really not possible without someone to help take care of the child.
You can't always rely on the third child. He's a grown man and he can't always help you take care of the children at home, right?
Our eldest daughter doesn’t eat much, and I won’t ask for much wages from you, so just give me a little as a token of my appreciation.
This is only you, if it were anyone else I wouldn't be willing to give up my big girl." Zhang Cuihua said as if Li Wanqing had taken advantage of her.
"Forget it, sister-in-law. I really don't need someone to help me take care of the children. If it really doesn't work out, I'll buy a maid who can not only help me take care of the children, but also cook and wash clothes.
"Big girl, you should let her stay by your side to help you." Li Wanqing said.
"No, Wanqing, what do you mean? You actually want to buy a wife instead of a big girl?
"You don't have to spend money to buy a wife? My daughter can work and eats little, and you don't have to spend extra money to buy her. What are you unhappy about?" Zhang Cuihua asked hurriedly.
"Sister-in-law, I feel sorry for the girl. How can she work outside when she is so young? If you have never worked outside, you don't know that it is not easy to earn money working outside.
Not to mention how much work they have to do, they often get beaten and scolded, so sister-in-law, you should just let the big girl stay with you." Li Wanqing said.
"Why would she be beaten and scolded? Aren't you her third uncle and aunt? How could you beat and scold her when she works for you?" Zhang Cuihua muttered softly.
"Anyway, I don't know how to use the girl, so you should take her back." Li Wanqing was impatient to deal with her and said directly.
"No, Wanqing, my daughter can really do anything. How about this, I don't want your wages, is that okay?" Zhang Cuihua thought for a moment and said while suppressing the pain.
"No, sister-in-law, you don't have to say it. I, big girl, definitely don't need it." Li Wanqing shook her head firmly.
Seeing that she was not listening, Zhang Cuihua twisted the girl's ear in anger and scolded her, "You silly girl, can't you beg your Third Aunt for help? You are such a grown-up girl, don't you have any sense at all?
If you can't stay at your third aunt's house, I'll find you a husband in the mountains."
Maybe the big girl was used to being beaten, so she lowered her head and dared not move, but her eyes were fixed on Li Wanqing.
Seeing that she didn't say anything, Zhang Cuihua slapped her twice again: "Are you dead? Are you mute?"
As he said that, he started to attack the girl.
While beating them, he also kept an eye on Li Wanqing and Gu Yan to see if they would show any mercy.
Li Wanqing knew that she was calling just for the two of them to see, so of course she wouldn't be soft-hearted.
But she still glanced at Gu Yan. After all, she was his niece, and she was afraid that he would be soft-hearted.
Gu Yan also saw Li Wanqing looking at him, and his eyes signaled to Li Wanqing that he was not soft-hearted.
Li Wanqing withdrew her gaze. She was relieved that Gu Yan did not show any mercy. Now she just watched Zhang Cuihua perform quietly.
It's not her child anyway, so just beat him. Zhang Cuihua, the mother, doesn't feel sorry for him, so she, an outsider, won't feel sorry for him either.
Zhang Cuihua saw that Gu Yan and Li Wanqing didn't say anything, just watched her beat the child, without any intention of stopping her.
After hitting her a few times, Zhang Cuihua couldn't stop. Da Niu was her own daughter, and she felt sad when she hit her.
Seeing that Zhang Cuihua had stopped fighting, Li Wanqing finally spoke up, "What? You don't want to fight anymore? Then go back."
Zhang Cuihua was stunned. She didn't expect that even after she beat them so hard, Li Wanqing would just let them go back with such a light tone.
She subconsciously pushed the big girl, and the big girl turned around and looked at Zhang Cuihua timidly. Zhang Cuihua gave her a wink.
The big girl took the opportunity to rush to Li Wanqing. Gu Yan was staring at them. Seeing the big girl rushing towards his wife, he quickly reached out to stop her.
"What do you want to do, big girl? How could you throw yourself at Aunt San? Don't you know she is pregnant?" Gu Yan pushed the big girl aside.
Li Wanqing was also shocked. What if the big girl pounced on her and knocked her down?
"Sister-in-law, please take the girl back. I definitely can't agree to what you said." Li Wanqing said with a bad look on her face.
This time, the girl didn't wait for Zhang Cuihua to speak, and immediately knelt in front of Li Wanqing and Gu Yan.
She cried and said, "Uncle San, Aunt San, I'm sorry, I didn't mean it just now, I apologize to Aunt San.
Third Aunt, please leave me to work. I can really do everything. I can take care of the confinement period. I was the one who took care of my mother when she gave birth to Xiao Zhuzi.
I can also take care of children. I raised Xiao Zhuzi.
Aunt San, please keep me here. I don’t eat much and I don’t want any wages. I will definitely be obedient and work hard.”
Da Niu knew that the real head of Uncle San's family was Aunt San, so she said all these words to Li Wanqing, and kowtowed to Li Wanqing while speaking.
Li Wanqing just stood there looking at the big girl. As her elder, it didn't matter if she nodded to her a few times.
Now it seems that the big girl is really a little cunning. Is she trying to force her to agree by kowtowing to her like this?
I didn't expect the little girl would play the game of moral kidnapping, but she miscalculated, she is a heartless person.
To be honest, the more she acted like this, the less he dared to use her. She was so cunning and she was afraid that she would end up working for a thankless purpose.
Li Wanqing tugged at Gu Yan's sleeve and asked him to pull the girl up.
Then she said, "Big girl, go back with your mother. Auntie San will never let you take care of my child."
Da Nv didn't expect that even after she begged her so much, Aunt San still refused so cruelly. She didn't know what to do for a moment.
She really wanted to get out of the mountains with her third aunt and the others. She didn't want to live in the mountains for the rest of her life like her mother.
Moreover, she heard from her younger aunt that her third aunt's family lived much better than theirs.
My aunt said that there were several large bags of scraps of cloth at my third aunt's house, all of which were given by the cloth shop.
Don't underestimate these scraps of cloth. They are also good things for them. They can be used to make shoes, handkerchiefs, and spliced together to make small clothes. They have many uses.
If you hadn't bought so much fabric, the fabric shop wouldn't have been able to give away so much.
Her mother also went to buy cloth. After much persuasion, the clerk in the cloth shop finally gave her a handful of cloth. It was really just a handful. When she came back, she counted them and found that there were only five or six pieces.
So when her younger aunt told her that her third aunt had several large bags of cloth, she became interested and wanted to follow her third aunt and uncle in the future.
But now it seems that Third Aunt is not easy to fool. What should we do now?
After all, the big girl was still young. She cried and made a fuss as her mother had taught her, and also kowtowed to Li Wanqing. But Li Wanqing remained unmoved, and she was at a loss.
