Seeing that there was no one else around, Qiao Zhiyi said, "I'm having my period, and I'm a little tired."
Pei Zheng was completely bewildered.
Qiao Zhiyi explained to him, "This is the periodic shedding of the endometrium under the influence of hormones secreted by the ovaries. After the endometrium is shed, periodic bleeding occurs. Normally, bleeding occurs once every month..."
Pei Zheng's ears instantly turned red, "Is this... so..."
Qiao Zhiyi said: "It also means that I am not pregnant. If I were pregnant, I wouldn't have my period..."
Pei Zheng coughed.
He recalled the days when he and she made love in bed.
I don't understand why I had so much energy during those days. Once night came, I was tireless and kept demanding more from her like crazy.
These two days, he would lie in bed and miss her very much. The scenes of him and her would keep appearing in his mind.
Qiao Zhiyi leaned into his arms, and Pei Zheng hugged her tightly, "Can I stay with you..."
"No, go and do your own thing. My mother and sister-in-law take good care of me."
"So, do you miss me or not?" Pei Zheng asked resentfully.
Qiao Zhiyi looked at him, "This..."
"You definitely didn't miss me."
"But it's only two days..." Qiao Zhiyi has her parents, brother and sister-in-law to accompany her, and Tangtang and Qiqi to accompany her at night. She has no time to think about anything else!
Pei Zheng said: "But I... I just miss you so much..."
Qiao Zhiyi was stunned for a moment.
Missing someone...what does it feel like?
At this time, the Wu family was in a state of mourning.
Old man Wu was of little help and even injured his waist. His daughter Wu Xiaoqiu went to find a barefoot doctor to see him.
After Wu Zhou had cleared herself of all charges, she became angrier and angrier the more she thought about it. She had been in charge of the Meixi Brigade for decades, and her words were invincible. She could always pin accusations on people accurately, but today she was defeated by a young girl. Now the brigade was also siding with the Qiao family. How could she possibly accept this?
The three sons are still being held in the brigade’s warehouse!
This is a great shame and humiliation.
So the old lady prepared to gather her relatives to go to Qiao's house and the brigade to make trouble again.
She has to get back the ground she lost!
The Wu family has considerable influence in the brigade.
Nothing else, mainly because I have many relatives.
The Qiao family had no roots in the Meixi Brigade, especially because of their family background. Many people had avoided the Qiao family in the past, and their relatives were not in the same brigade. Some even fled overseas. Overseas relationships were also a big problem for the Qiao family.
So for many years, Qiao's father and mother have been enduring humiliation in the brigade.
This also led to people like the Wu Zhou family being extremely arrogant and overbearing in attacking families like the Qiao family that had class problems.
Wu Zhou went to gather relatives, but the result was not satisfactory. Few relatives were willing to help.
After all, I was watching the fun at the Qiao family at that time, so I definitely helped my relatives if they asked for help.
But I just felt that I couldn’t help, so I didn’t help.
Because since Qiao Zhiyi came to Meixi Brigade, he has provided free medical treatment to many members. After all, no one can avoid having headaches and fevers in life, and who can guarantee that they will not have to ask others for help in the future.
In addition, the brigade headquarters was obviously biased towards the Qiao family, and the relatives of the Wu family were also discerning and could not help rashly, so they turned around and persuaded Wu Zhou to give up.
"They gave your granddaughter free medical treatment, but you were being unreasonable. You can't really blame them."
"Yes, no matter how you treated the Qiao family in the past, they were willing to treat your granddaughter for free. This shows that they are kind-hearted. Let's be more kind-hearted..."
Wu Zhou was furious when she heard this, "They are the sons of landlords!"
"What's the big deal? Those stinky old guys who used to live in the cowshed were taken back to the city at the beginning of this year. The county leaders came in person. Who knows what will become of the Qiao family in the future?"
When someone said this, the other relatives of the Wu family suddenly understood.
"Oh, it would have been fine if you hadn't said it. Now that you've said it, it's true. Don't forget, the daughter of the Qiao family is going to marry Pei Zheng. Pei Zheng has a good relationship with the commune leaders and also has connections with the county leaders. The second son of the Qiao family is still in the army, and he might really be stripped of his title..."
The relatives of the Wu family looked at each other, reflecting in their hearts whether they had done anything excessive to the Qiao family in the past. If so, it should not be too late to make amends now.
Seeing how they were acting so unprofessionally, Wu Zhou was furious. "How can you take off the landlord's hat so easily? Can you use some brains?"
"If you want to die, go by yourself, don't drag us down with you."
As a result, Wu Zhou was driven away by her relatives in disgust.
Wu Zhou was extremely ashamed and angry. She had never felt so aggrieved in her life.
She is now somewhat depressed and wants to kill herself to end it all.
Unfortunately, her pride wouldn't allow her to do so.
Her youngest son hasn't gotten married yet, and she hasn't seen her youngest daughter get married yet. She also wants her eldest daughter-in-law to quickly give birth to a son so that the eldest family can have a son to inherit...
In short, Wu Zhou has many small goals in life waiting for her to achieve. She can be angry, but she can't die yet!
She returned home, cursing all sorts of things. The barefoot doctor had already left, and Wu Xiaoqiu was applying a plaster to her father. Old Wu was lying on the bed groaning. When he saw his wife come back, he said, "Calm down! Stop making such trouble. If you keep making such trouble, we'll lose all our work points..."
The brigade's punishment for their family was to deduct half of their work points for the month, and then to conduct ideological education and reform for the entire family...
Apart from anything else, the whole family currently depends on work points for their livelihood. If half of the work points are deducted, the impact will be huge, which is equivalent to working for nothing this month.
He also didn't expect that the brigade would be so ruthless this time and punish his family so severely?
Old Wu was filled with regret.
If I had known this earlier, I wouldn’t have gone to the Qiao family to cause trouble today.
The three sons are now also detained.
Now the Wu family has become the laughing stock of the entire brigade, and his reputation has been ruined in his later years.
Old Wu shed turbid tears.
Wu Zhou was furious and cursed her daughter Wu Xiaoqiu and granddaughter Wu Panddy in anger.
Wu Xiaoqiu didn't know when she became tough. "Mom, stop scolding me. You were the one who did this dishonestly. If you want to blame someone, blame yourself. There's no reason to blame us..."
"What did you say? How dare you talk back?" Mrs. Wu Zhou widened her eyes and looked at her formerly obedient daughter in disbelief.
"I'm not an animal, so why can't I talk back? Even a clay man has some temper, and I'm still a human being..." After hearing Qiao Zhiyi's powerful and resounding words, Wu Xiaoqiu suddenly had an epiphany.
Although her mother gave birth to her, she was not necessarily right in everything.
The country has long advocated gender equality, so why can't she be treated equally?
She has worked like a slave for this family since she was a child and has never had a good day. Why doesn't she even have the right to choose who she likes?
My elder sister has already sacrificed her lifelong happiness for the sake of her family's marriage. Does she have to make such a sacrifice too?
Once this thought flashes through my mind, it is out of control.
But Wu Xiaoqiu couldn't say anything, nothing at all.
