Sheng An Ning frowned and looked at Lu Chaoran's mother, not understanding why the old lady looked at her like that.
She was sure that she had never seen Lu Chaoran's mother, let alone offend her. How could she stare at her like that?
The old lady retracted her gaze and glared at Lu Chaoran: "Go now, find Leng Jie and ask her if she can come back! If I can't see her today, I will go to her workplace to find her."
Lu Chaoran was helpless: "Mom, I've already told you, Leng Jie is at work, at work. How do you expect her to come back? What do you want to eat? I'll make it for you."
The old lady snorted coldly: "What are you talking about! What are you cooking? What are you cooking as a man? Look at our village, there are no men entering the kitchen. I tell you, it is unlucky for a man to enter the kitchen!"
"Tell me, are you the one who cooks at home? You just indulge me..."
Sheng An Ning was not in the mood to listen to this, but Lu Chaoran and his mother were blocking the door to the building. After thinking for a moment, she carried An An and walked over with a cold face, without any intention of saying hello.
Lu Chaoran quickly pulled his mother aside and let Sheng Anning carry the child over.
The old lady stared at Sheng An Ning's back until she entered the door, then she retracted her gaze and muttered in a low voice: "Is this your daughter-in-law downstairs?"
Lu Chaoran and Sheng Anning had not met many times, and had never said hello. He nodded: "Yes, let's go back too, it's very cold outside."
The old lady glanced at the door of Sheng Anning's house again: "Does she have two sons and a daughter?"
Lu Chaoran was quite surprised. He had never told his mother about the neighbors. How did she know that Sheng Anning had two sons and a daughter? "How did you know?"
The old lady snorted coldly, "I told you I can tell fortunes. This daughter-in-law is very lucky. She actually has two sons. I told you long ago that Leng Jie is a chicken that doesn't lay eggs. She always says that it's because of me that the child will be lost. I tell you, even if I'm not here, she can't keep the child!"
"She is just a chicken that can't lay eggs!"
Lu Chaoran said nothing and pushed his mother upstairs. He was overwhelmed by the things going on at home and couldn't decide which side to take.
When An An came into the room, he was still whining for his brother, the kind that couldn't be coaxed even with candy.
He keeps humming until night and even wants to sleep with his mother.
When she got up in the morning, she hugged Sheng An Ning again: "Mom, An An misses her brother. Let her come back and play with him."
Sheng An Ning patted her little back and coaxed her: "Brother is not in good health, so he went back to Beijing. When brother is well, he will come back and then he can play with An An. Also, we can go to see brother after the New Year when it's warm. And mom misses brother very much and is very sad. An An, don't you want to comfort mom too?"
An An looked at her mother with red eyes. She thought for a long time, then looked at her mother again. Her eyes were red as if she was really going to cry. She was a good baby and would not let her mother cry. She put her arms around her mother's neck and said, "Mommy, don't cry. An An comforts Mommy. An An plays with Mommy."
The little girl seemed to be comforted. After eating breakfast, she was happy enough to go to school with her aunt.
Sheng An Ning didn't care about being sad, she packed up and went to work at the hospital. As soon as she went out, she ran into an old lady who was out for a stroll.
When the old lady saw Gu An Ning, her eyes became sharp again, as if she saw an enemy. She snorted coldly, held the handrail of the stairs, and looked down at Sheng An Ning condescendingly.
Sheng An Ning didn't want to pay attention to her, so she locked the door and left. Then she heard the old lady mutter "a disaster star".
Sheng An Ning was very sure that the words "disaster star" were directed at him. He turned around and stared at the old lady coldly. When the old lady's eyes became vague, he turned and left.
The old lady didn't dare to say anything until Sheng An Ning left, then she spat at the door.
Sheng An Ning was in a bad mood. She was already in a bad mood, and now it was even worse. She couldn't ask the old lady who she was scolding. The old lady was so unruly. She just said, "I didn't scold you." Who would scold her?
The more she thought about it, the angrier she got. How could she possibly accept such a loss?
The hospital was still a bit busy today. Sheng Anning worked in the emergency department until around eight in the evening. After packing up and getting home, it was almost nine o'clock.
At the door of the unit, I ran into Leng Jie and Lu Chaoran arguing again, and it seemed that neither of them would give in to the other.
Leng Jie pointed at Lu Chaoran and said, "I've worked a whole day and night, and you come back and ask me to cook for your mother? I'm so tired, why should I cook for your mother? What are you doing as a son?"
Lu Chaoran was puzzled: "It's just cooking a meal, it won't waste a lot of your time and energy. I also know that you are very tired after a day's work, but who isn't tired? You can solve the problem by just cooking a meal, and my mother won't make a fuss anymore. Why can't you just bear it?"
"My mother's life was not easy. She raised us brothers and sisters as a widow. Now we should be filial to her."
Leng Jie sneered: "It was not easy for your mother to raise you, but she didn't raise me. If you want to be filial, go ahead. I have no obligation to do so. Also, if you say so, we will divorce."
Lu Chaoran was very angry: "Are you sick? Why do you want to divorce me so easily? You are a daughter, I know I am marrying above my station, but I was born in such a family, I am just this kind of person."
Leng Jie looked at the desperate Lu Chaoran with some disbelief, and was stunned for a while: "Lu Chaoran, what do you mean by this? If this is the case, then let's get a divorce."
After saying that, he rushed into the corridor, and Lu Chaoran quickly followed him in.
Sheng An Ning understood what was said. Leng Jie had worked the night shift and then the day shift, and had just returned from get off work. When she entered the house, Lu Chaoran asked her to cook and serve her mother-in-law.
Perhaps he wanted to prove his status at home, so he ordered Leng Jie to cook.
It turned out that Leng Jie didn't buy it at all. Lu Chaoran was tough, and she was even tougher, so the two of them started arguing fiercely.
Sigh, since there is a quarrel upstairs, they can forget about living in peace.
Sure enough, when we got home, the children had finished eating and were playing with building blocks in the living room, but Zhou Shixun had not yet gotten off work.
When Zhou Hongyun went to heat up food for Sheng An Ning, they started quarreling again on the way.
There were all kinds of quarrels and swearing, and all kinds of nasty words.
There was also the sound of something falling.
Then I heard the old lady's sharp voice: "Chaoran, beat her up for me. How can there be such a woman who dares to ride on a man's neck and yell? Beat her up, I don't know if she dares to talk to me so loudly again."
Then Leng Jie roared, "Lu Chaoran, if you dare to do this, I will kill you today."
Then there were all kinds of noises, as if a fight had begun.
Zhou Hongyun couldn't help but gasp: "Are they really going to do it? Oh my god, how are we going to live like this from now on?"
