Tao Chunfang: "We didn't eat much at noon, so we're not hungry yet! If we get hungry, we can just eat whatever's left in the kitchen."
Qiao Xiaoni thought of the spotless kitchen, and indeed there was nothing to eat:
"Don't even think about leaving anything; it's all been taken away. However, even though they took everything, they cleaned the kitchen spotless, so our family didn't have to lift a finger."
"They're all gone? I was thinking of having another fish tonight! The fish was cooked well today; it's been a long time since I've had a good meal." Zhang Ru said, savoring the memory. Ever since she found out she was pregnant, she'd become picky about food, not eating just anything. She'd eaten three bowls of rice today, and her belly was still bulging.
Qiao Xiaoni's eyes lit up: "Is the fish cooked yet? I remember there are two raw fish in the big vat outside. We'll braise one for dinner, and then stir-fry a couple of vegetables. That should be enough for us."
Zhang Ru was happy to hear that there would be fish for dinner that night: "I thought I would be going home tonight. But this happened, and the old man didn't say anything, so how could we dare to leave?"
I guess I'll have to squeeze in with you tonight. Your room can easily sleep three or four people.
Qiao Xiaoni doesn't like sleeping with strangers, but there's no other way during this special time. She can't kick them out, so she'll probably have to squeeze in tonight.
Li Meihua walked in at this moment, carrying a plate with sliced apples on it.
"I brought you some fruit to eat. Eating more fruit makes your children smarter. That's what the older generation says, but I don't know if it's true or not."
Zhang Ru moved aside slightly: "Sister-in-law, you've been busy all day, come and sit down for a while."
Li Meihua put down the plate and sat down next to her: "I think the third brother has changed a lot. At least he knows how to care about you now."
Zhang Ru took a bite of her apple: "He's doing this for the sake of the child. He wouldn't have treated me like this before!"
Looking back now, I'm so glad my belly cooperated, otherwise I would never have had the chance to turn over in this lifetime.
Tao Chunfang: "Third Uncle is still young. As long as you work hard, your lives won't be too hard."
Zhang Ru said with a look of relief, "He has changed a lot recently. He told me that after the baby is born, he will go out to work and earn more money for me and the baby."
Then build a big house so that my children and I can live a good life.
Whether or not these words come true in the future, I'm happy; at least he said them.
Qiao Xiaoni: "If you want to work, go to the south, there are more opportunities there. My uncle lacks physical strength, but he's smart, so developing in that direction might be a good way out."
"I'll go back and talk to him. Whether it succeeds or not, I'll be content and satisfied." Zhang Ru's face showed a happy smile.
Li Meihua sighed: "Was the person taken to the hospital and saved?"
"Mom, don't worry about it. Dad said the situation was alright; people should be able to survive. As for other things, it's hard to say," Qiao Xiaoni comforted her, a hint of schadenfreude in her heart. Song Min was a complete scoundrel; keeping that thing around would be a disaster sooner or later.
Tao Chunfang saw Wang Qin and Qiao Lingling enter through the front door through the window, looking disheveled. She quickly turned to them and said:
"They've all come home. What if something serious happens later?"
Thinking of the old man's angry appearance, they all felt that something bad might happen soon.
