Zhou Qing's pretty face turned red. Although she felt ashamed, she really couldn't refute it.
Her husband is older, so he always treats her like a little girl, but... she is so dull! Like a wooden stake!
When she was unhappy, he didn't know how to comfort her! Humph!
When Shen Zhiyi accompanied Zhou Qing out to wash his face, Aunt Liu had already come over and was preparing food in the kitchen.
Zhou Ping went over and told her about Zhou Qing.
After all, Shen Zhiyi, Song Xiaomei and Zhou Qing are very good friends.
If someone has something on their mind, the elders should help to persuade them.
While eating, Zhou Qing calmed down a little.
I took the initiative to talk about this matter again at the dinner table,
Jiang Cheng just silently picked up food for Shen Zhiyi, lowered his narrow and dark eyes, and said nothing, as if he didn't hear anything.
He is very much like a husband who strictly adheres to male ethics and never interrupts a woman when she is talking.
Jiang Ziqian was also sensible. While eating, he put food on the plates of his grandmother and sister.
Zhou Qing held the chopsticks tightly and looked at the scene in front of him with envy.
Whispered to Shen Zhiyi: "Zhiyi... your man and your nephew are so nice... they both know how to take care of people."
"What are you saying? Doesn't your Lao Zhu know how to take care of people?"
“… …”
Zhou Qing pulled the corners of his lips and took a bite of food, but his eyes still fell uncontrollably on Jiang Ziqian.
This kid is good-looking and looks like his uncle.
Small black phoenix eyes and straight eyebrows.
She was also taught by Shen Zhiyi to be so sensible and considerate.
Oh, that’s great.
And Zhiyi is pregnant with a baby...
As Zhou Qing thought about it, he felt like he couldn't eat anymore.
He put down his chopsticks and sighed.
Aunt Liu knew that the child was being too stubborn, so she said earnestly while eating her meal, "Qing girl, don't blame your parents-in-law."
"We older people are always talkative."
"I'm happy to talk about anything."
"Or is there anything else you can talk about?"
"Your husband's family is well-off, and they don't have any nosy relatives. They have nothing else to worry about except you two."
"Besides, when they said those things to you, they also felt sorry for you."
"That doesn't necessarily mean you have other ideas."
"Let's not think too badly of others!"
"...I, I know," Zhou Qing pursed his lips and lowered his head.
Aunt Liu simply put down her chopsticks and couldn't help but recall, "Qing girl, let me tell you, I was pregnant with Xiaomei quite late, probably... around four or five years after we got married."
"At the beginning, I was anxious and wanted it."
"But it's strange, this whole concept of pregnancy... the more you want it, the less you can have it. But by the end, I was really fed up! I thought, fuck it, love or no love!"
"No, forget it!"
"I've been worrying about my belly getting bigger all day long. I'm almost going insane! Guess what happened?"
"Hahaha, I suddenly got pregnant!"
"puff--"
Everyone was successfully amused by Aunt Liu's rude words, and the sadness on Zhou Qing's face also dissipated a lot.
She shook her shoulders with joy and laughed for a while before stopping.
After hesitating for a moment, she asked again, "Then... Auntie, you only gave birth to a daughter, Xiaomei, but no son..."
"Isn't my uncle unhappy? And Xiaomei's grandparents..."
"Your uncle doesn't care. He's working hard outside every day, so how could he have the time to think about such things? Besides, life was already difficult for the two of us back then, how could we support another child?"
"Anyway, my body is like this, I can't give birth like other people!"
"Xiaomei's grandparents also mentioned this, so I told them straight up: If you pay, I'll find the best doctor. I'll drink any bitter medicine! Yeah, and raising a child... Your uncle and I had to deal with this situation. I'm not exaggerating. For the first few years after Xiaomei was born, we both wore our pants backwards, and the soles of our shoes were torn and ripped!"
"Anyway, I don't have the money to raise a child. Whoever wants me to give birth can give me money!"
Shen Zhiyi was stunned when she saw Aunt Liu with her hands on her hips and an aggressive look on her face.
She had never known that Aunt Liu's thinking was so advanced!
Domineering! So domineering!
It is so rare for a woman in this era to have such thoughts!
"Yes! Auntie, you are right!"
Zhou Qing nodded repeatedly, his eyes filled with admiration as he said, "No wonder Xiaomei has such a good temper... She's never been bullied by other boys since she was little. It seems she really got it from you!"
"Hahahaha, ouch, stop talking about that."
Aunt Liu smiled and waved her hands, "This child is just trying to annoy me. When her stubborn temper comes up, I, as a mother, can't do anything about it!"
"Comrade Shen Zhiyi!! Comrade Shen Zhiyi!!"
"Brother Jiang Cheng!!"
"Are you guys home?"
A few people were talking and laughing here when an anxious and deep voice came from outside.
Zhou Ping was stunned and her body froze in the chair for half a second.
Then he pretended to get up and run into the house.
Shen Zhiyi was quick-witted and quickly pulled her to hold her down. He turned around and said, "Hey! Brother Zhu! He's home!"
"Please come in!"
"... Hey, let me go!"
Zhou Qing's face flushed red and he was extremely anxious, struggling frantically.
Shen Zhiyi raised an eyebrow and threatened: "Tsk, Comrade Zhou Qing, let me tell you! I have a baby in my belly!"
"As his aunt, if you accidentally hurt him..."
“… …”
Zhou Qing paused when he heard this, and looked at Shen Zhiyi with resentment.
Shen Zhiyi chuckled, her beautiful eyes curved into a bright moon, and she winked at her seductively.
Zhou Qing looked at her beautiful face and couldn't get angry even if he wanted to.
Ugh. Good-looking people are so annoying!
"Ah Qing..."
After Zhu Heng came in, he went straight towards Zhou Qing.
The big and strong man, as big as a bear, seemed timid.
Shrinking his neck, he walked over to Zhou Qing, looked at her, and said earnestly, "Ah Qing, it's me and my parents who are wrong..."
"I said the wrong thing and made you sad."
"Mom and Dad both knew they were wrong. They said they'd never mention this again... They told me to apologize to you and take you back home."
"I got some fresh pork elbows from the pig farm, and Mom stewed them for you!"
"Let's go home and have dinner, okay?"
