If the child were gone, she could continue to boss around her third son's wife. The thought sent a chill down her spine.
She thought that no matter what, the child was her own grandson, and she couldn't do that, so she suppressed the thought.
At this moment, in an attempt to get closer to her mother-in-law, Wang Qin asked in a low voice, "Mom, I heard from the third brother that the fat woman is carrying a son? Is that true?"
"The hospital's diagnosis should be reliable. She'll give birth in a little over a month. If you have time, come back and help her during her postpartum period," Qiao Sunshi replied casually.
Seeing the unhappiness on her mother-in-law's face, she knew something must have happened recently. Deliberately adding fuel to the fire, she said, "Let me give you a heads-up: don't overpraise her just because she gave birth to a grandson. Look at how protective the third son is of her; there will definitely be more trouble after the baby is born."
You can't do everything for her. When I gave birth, I didn't bother you at all; I took care of everything myself.
The child grew up just fine, didn't he?
Actually, her younger sister came to help take care of her child, but she was afraid her mother-in-law would come and try to extort money from her, so she made up an excuse to refuse. This was kept a secret from everyone except her family.
Thinking about the humiliation she had suffered recently, of her three daughters-in-law, she had only endured the hardship caused by Zhang Ru, who did all the washing and cleaning all day long. She wondered what would happen after Zhang Ru gave birth to. Wouldn't the family treat her like royalty? She was almost 70 years old and didn't have many days left to live. How could she endure such suffering? The more she thought about it, the angrier she became, and her suppressed anger flared up again.
That wicked thought popped into her head again: What's the use of getting pregnant? If she can't give birth, she'll just have to be molded and flattened herself.
Thinking about this, she didn't feel she had done anything wrong. She already had grandchildren, so one more wouldn't make a difference. It was just a blood fetus that hadn't been born; once it was gone, it was gone.
Wang Qin, who had initially intended to watch the spectacle, was terrified when she saw the old woman's fierce gaze. That look was murderous! She patted her chest and quickly left, feeling she hadn't said anything wrong, just that she'd fallen into the common womanly trap of gossiping.
If the old woman does anything, it has absolutely nothing to do with me.
Absolutely no relation!
I tried to comfort myself with a few words, and as I walked into the crowd, I saw my daughter being surrounded by several old women, so I quickly went over to help her out.
What happened?
Qiao Lingling stomped her feet in anger and pointed at the old ladies in front of her, saying, "They wanted to introduce me to potential partners, but I disagreed, so they surrounded me and wouldn't let me leave."
"Mom, what's going on?" She had been thinking of sneaking out to see Song Min, but as soon as she got to the door, she was surrounded by these people asking her all sorts of questions. She was too embarrassed to refuse.
"Ah!" Wang Qin was surprised. When did her daughter become so popular? Looking at the three people of similar age in front of her, who were dressed reasonably well, she didn't recognize them and they probably weren't from this village.
Who are you?
“We’re all introducing potential partners to our relatives. We thought you were a nice girl, so we wanted to get to know you better,” one of the older women said. “None of us are from this village. We all have relatives living here, and we just happened to come here for a celebratory meal.”
Let me introduce myself first. My son works at Ningcheng Steel Pipe Factory. He is a team leader and earns about 70 yuan a month. He also gets a bonus occasionally.
Although he lives a bit far from here, he has a good job and is quite good-looking; he's more than a match for your daughter.
