Chapter 149 We’ll live wherever you want!

No matter how angry Su Mei was, she couldn't get angry in front of such a cute little girl. She touched the little girl's face and shook her head:

"Auntie doesn't want to eat it, you eat it yourself, thank you Qiuqiu!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Huo Qiu had already stuffed the candied haws into Su Mei's mouth.

The sour and sweet taste immediately filled Su Mei's taste buds. Seeing a little more smile on Su Mei's face, Huo Jianguo walked out with peace of mind.

"It's delicious, right?" Huo Qiu raised her head and smiled sweetly at Su Mei. Then she stuffed the candied haws into Su Mei's hand, turned around and ran out on her short legs.

How could Su Mei have the nerve to take children's things? When she saw Huo Qiu running out the door, she quickly got up and chased after him.

As soon as he went out, he happened to meet Li Shufen who was looking for Huo Qiu. Li Shufen saw Huo Qiu running out of Su Mei's room, so she hugged Huo Qiu into her arms, and then took a look at the candied haws in Su Mei's hand.

Su Mei was so embarrassed that she felt ashamed:

"Sister-in-law, I didn't steal this. Huo Qiu wanted to give it to me. I was just planning to chase her out and give it back to her!"

"I know." Li Shufen nodded to Su Mei: "She told me that she wanted to give the Tanghulu to Auntie.

That ginseng is very good. After Qiuqiu drank the soup made from it these days, her complexion has improved a lot. We have nothing to give you in return.

It's just a string of candied haws. If Qiuqiu is kind enough to give it to you, you can take it and eat it. It's not something valuable. I'm sorry.

You guys bought us so many things when you came back, but we have nothing to give to you and Lao San. We have been treating Qiu Qiu for so many years...."

"Qiuqiu's body is so weak, and it has nothing to do with me." Although Su Mei didn't do it, she occupied the original owner's body and had to take responsibility for all the good and bad. Seeing Li Shufen apologize, Su Mei was ashamed:

"I am sorry to Qiuqiu, sister-in-law, please don't say that. You have never done anything to let me down."

"Qiuqiu's poor health is not entirely your fault!" Li Shufen said, and suddenly took a few steps towards Su Mei:

“Although that fall into the water did cause considerable damage to Qiuqiu, she was physically weak and there were signs of this long before that.

When I was pregnant, I had no food to eat and had severe morning sickness. I couldn’t eat what I wanted to eat, and the only thing I could eat every day was pumpkin.

Qiuqiu weighed only two kilograms when she was born, and was very thin and weak. The midwife said that it was difficult for the child to survive.

Later, Qiuqiu lived with her grandmother. Her grandmother said that Qiuqiu was not a good eater and only wanted to eat one meal a day. The child became pale and thin due to hunger.

What can I do? My child is not well behaved and I don’t want to eat properly! "

As she spoke, Li Shufen gave a bitter smile. As to whether the child refused to eat properly or someone deliberately starved the child, no one knew.

She added: "So the child's congenital deficiency has something to do with the time you caused her to fall into the water, but you can't be blamed entirely. It was the child's grandmother who insisted that it was you who caused the child to fall into the water that caused her health to become poor.

To be honest, I hate you, I really hate you. The child was in poor health to begin with, and you caused him to fall into the water and he almost died.

But the third brother has helped us so much. For his sake, I must forgive you this time no matter what.

The third brother is a good guy. If you follow him well, he will definitely not let you suffer any injustice. He is eight hundred times better than that dead guy of mine.

Su Mei, you are lucky, you will live a good life with Lao San in the future!"

After saying these words, Li Shufen carried Huo Qiu back to their own room.

"What are you saying outside again? When you were in confinement, you had a poor appetite and couldn't eat. When you gave birth, the child had a difficult birth, which caused Qiuqiu to have congenital deficiencies.

This is all your own problem. What were you saying in front of the third son's wife? What did you mean by you had no food to eat? What did you mean by Qiuqiu had no food to eat when she was a child?

Li Shufen, you are just short of telling the whole world that my mother has treated you badly. My mother is such a kind person, and yet you slander her like this every day. Will you ever stop?

My mother doesn't even dare to watch the commune slaughtering pigs. She would cry out of pity when she saw a pig being slaughtered. Why can't you help but say bad things about her?" From the old house, the eldest brother Huo Jianjun's voice could be heard scolding Li Shufen.

Normally, Huo Jianjun would not get anything out of him even if you hit him with a stick. But when he was scolding his wife and children behind closed doors, he was quite good at it.

Su Mei looked at the candied haws in her hand, then looked at the flickering kerosene lamp in the boss's room, and sighed.

It is said that women are afraid of marrying the wrong man and men are afraid of choosing the wrong career. Li Shufen married a poor man like Lao Da, and was born in an era where divorce is not easy. Her life is ruined.

Inside the room, Li Shufen didn't even open her mouth to argue. She was used to responding to all of Huo Jianjun's criticisms with silence.

Perhaps it was because she knew that arguing was useless.

After returning to the house, Su Mei ate the entire string of candied haws.

She thought to herself that when she returned to her parents' home tomorrow, she would carefully select the herbs she had collected from the mountains and pick out some of the older tonics to give to Qiuqiu.

Su Mei couldn't give more help to Li Shufen and her son, but at least she could help Qiuqiu get better health.

This child is quite likable. Doctors are compassionate, and Su Mei is kind-hearted by nature. She is willing to help whenever she can.

After eating the candied haws, Su Mei poured water from the kettle to wash her face and feet, then crawled into the quilt to sleep.

It was very late at night, when Su Mei was already half asleep, when she suddenly felt a gust of cold wind blowing into the quilt.

Then, she was picked up by Huo Jianguo's big hand and thrown into his arms.

"Is it only after talking for so long that she agrees to apologize? I told you to just not go. Even if you apologize, she won't be willing to do so. Why bother?

I don't even want to listen to her talk, she's just annoying!" Su Mei was sleeping soundly, mumbling in Huo Jianguo's arms.

Huo Jianguo held the back of her head and said in a muffled voice:

"No, they agreed to apologize from the beginning. The reason it took me so long was because I spent a lot of time dealing with them about the children.

You are right. If the children follow them, they will grow up to be useless sooner or later. So I told them that after the Chinese New Year, Huo De and Huo Liang will go to the county boarding school.

They can only go back to school once every three months. If they have less contact with their second brother and his wife, there is always hope that they can be good people. "

"You are willing to put in the effort, but I'm afraid they won't think well of you and will even think you are causing separation between their family." Su Mei really didn't understand why Huo Jianguo wanted to do such a laborious and awkward thing.

Huo Jianguo sighed faintly, and did not respond to Su Mei's words. He changed the subject: "Tomorrow morning, my second sister-in-law will apologize to you!"

"Haha, don't."

Su Mei felt that the apology was too disgusting. She did not give Cheng Erxi a chance to apologize the next day. She got up early and went back to her parents' home, without even having breakfast at the Huo's.

Knowing that Su Mei was unhappy, Huo Jianguo could only carefully send Su Mei back to her parents' home.

After sending Su Mei back, Huo Jianguo had to go back to the Huo family. He was afraid that if he stayed in the Su family with Su Mei for too long, Liu Cuiyun would have some opinions again.

After returning to the Huo family, Huo Jianguo remembered Su Mei's disgusted expression when she saw the chicken feces, so he nailed a chicken coop and locked up all the chickens.

Then he did a thorough cleaning of the yard and cleaned up all the dirty places inside and outside the house, making the entire Huo family look brand new.

After cleaning up the Huo family's yard at home, Huo Jianguo saw that it was almost time for dinner, so he went out to the Su family to pick up Su Mei.

At her mother's house, Su Mei was very happy, so when she saw Huo Jianguo coming to pick her up, she felt very upset:

"Why do you have to take me back to live with the Huo family? Even though we are husband and wife, we are only in name only. We don't need to have sex at night, so we don't have to live together.

You live in your Huo's house, and I live in my Su's house. We can each find our own mother. Isn't it good for everyone to be comfortable?"

"Oh no, I can't sleep without you by my side." Huo Jianguo wanted to say that it was not just that he couldn't sleep at night, he also felt empty in his heart because he hadn't seen Su Mei all day.

Su Mei listened to Huo Jianguo's words without any ripples in her heart: "If you can't sleep, just sleep with me at Su's house!"

"That's fine. If you really don't want to go back, then I'll live with you at your mother's house." Huo Jianguo finally compromised. He didn't want to see Su Mei with a drooping face, so he reached out and smoothed her brows:

"We can live wherever you want!"
