Ji Xia felt a little regretful about telling Qin Xiao about her pregnancy so early. She was like a level 10 disabled person in front of Qin Xiao before, but now she had become a glass doll that needed careful care.
It will break if you are not careful.
She was dressed, had her teeth brushed and her face washed, and then was helped to the toilet door. If Ji Xia hadn't been really angry, Qin Xiao would have wanted to accompany her to the toilet.
"I'll wait for you outside!" Qin Xiao was so worried that he was at a loss and couldn't sit still.
"You go and do your thing. I won't fall into the toilet even if someone does." Ji Xia was speechless. This was a dry toilet, how could she fall in?
"Then you better be careful and don't fall. I'll add a handrail next to the toilet so you can hold on to it when you enter the door." Qin Xiao was already thinking about what kind of handrail to build.
Ji Xia was a little anxious, so she pushed him out, closed the door, and went to the bathroom. Fortunately, Qin Xiao heard the noise from inside from outside. He was afraid that she would be embarrassed if she came out, so he didn't dare to touch her. He was also afraid that she would be hungry after going to the bathroom, so he went to the front to prepare breakfast.
I don't know when a chicken coop was built in the backyard, and several ditches were dug in the vegetable garden, probably for drainage.
Ji Xia came out of the toilet and looked around his backyard. These should have been made by Qin Xiao when he had time. He was a kid from the same compound and a soldier, but he had this kind of skill, which made Ji Xia a little curious.
There was a whistling sound of wind outside the courtyard wall, mixed with low gasps. If you didn't listen carefully, you couldn't hear it at all.
Ji Xia frowned and walked over, listening at the back door. Sure enough, there was crying, and it was a child's.
She opened the back door and saw the child crying loudly. She was startled by the noise and when she jumped up, her left foot lost its support and she fell to the side. Ji Xia helped her up. She was a thin child with a pale face and skinny body, and she was wearing very thin clothes.
"What's your name and why are you here?" Ji Xia asked curiously.
Without thinking, I knew it must be a child from someone's family in the compound. He came here crying early in the morning, and I don't know what injustice he had suffered.
"What a sin! Zhaodi, did your grandma beat you again? It's so early in the morning, and she won't let me sleep in peace."
The one who spoke was He Dagu, who came from the back path carrying a basket. After seeing this, she shook her head with pity and without waiting for the child to speak, she said to Ji Xia, "Xiao Xia, are you back from your mother's home?"
Ji Xia nodded, looked at the child named Zhaodi and asked, "Sister-in-law He, what's the situation with this child?"
Zhaodi ran away in a flash.
Aunt He leaned in closer and said, "The deputy battalion commander of the third battalion has two daughters, and his mother refused to tolerate either of them. She writes to them all the time, asking for money or urging them to have a son. There's been no news for several years, but a few days ago she said she was pregnant, and his mother came over with great fanfare to help her daughter-in-law give birth to a grandson. But in just a few days, she's been beating and scolding her, and the whole courtyard is in turmoil."
Since the whole compound knew about it, Aunt He did not hide anything and told Ji Xia everything.
Before she finished speaking, she heard cursing coming from across the yard. It was all kinds of cursing, mixed with the faint crying of a child and the sound of begging.
"Cry, all you do is cry! You're such a useless thing, you can't even give birth to a son. How can you have a say in this family?"
The voice suddenly became much louder, and Ji Xia could hear it clearly.
