Dong Qing said, "Here we go again. We're husband and wife, why are you thanking me? As the saying goes, a son-in-law is like half a son. It's only right that I ask your family what they can do for you."
Over the past few months, Li Yuqiu, the younger sister, had already learned how to do business from her older sister. Li Yuzhu felt comfortable entrusting the business to her sister now. Li Yuzhu said, "That's fine. Since we're giving the customers and the car to my parents' home, it means this car has nothing to do with us anymore. If my sister buys soybeans and pig feed for me to transport, will we still have to pay for the transportation?"
Dong Qing said, "Of course we'll pay. Once the items are sent out, it's no longer our concern. We'll just pay whatever shipping costs are due."
No matter what, her daughter always sides with her family. Li Yuzhu said, "Thank you on behalf of my family!"
Dong Qing laughed and said, "I really want to slap you twice to wake you up. Aren't your parents my parents too? I really don't know what you're thinking every day!"
As the saying goes, relatives should keep their money separate. If it were another family, in their current situation, the customer could give it away for free, but Li Yuqiu would at least have to pay for the car. If he didn't have the money now, he could pay later when he had the money, since it was a brand new car that he had only bought a few months ago.
How could Dongqing's actions not make his wife grateful? It was because her family was good. After all, there is always a barrier between a son-in-law and his mother-in-law. No matter what, they are not related by blood. Otherwise, when they divorced this spring, his mother would not have done so many things to wrong Dongqing. In her heart, she never regarded Dongqing as her son.
Li Yuzhu is a kind and honest person. If it were any other woman, she wouldn't agree even if her husband offered to give it to her for free, because she and her husband are family.
The saying "a married daughter is like water spilled from a cup" is actually quite true. No matter how close her maternal family is, they are not as close as her husband and son, since she will spend her whole life with him.
My younger brother and sister will all have their own families in the future. When my brother gets married, my daughter might come back to her parents' home to borrow some money, but her brother's wife might not be able to lend it to her. That's the reality of life. You may be kind, but others may not be.
Of course, her mother would give her money if she asked, because Li Yuzhu was her biological daughter. Blood is thicker than water. If her younger brother marries a woman from another family, would his wife really do that? Even a ghost wouldn't believe it.
With tears in her eyes, Li Yuzhu said, "You didn't need to hit me; I'm perfectly sober. I'm so grateful that you've taken such good care of my family. Most men wouldn't do this. I, Li Yuzhu, am content to have a husband like you in my life!"
Dongqing hugged his wife and said, "You're wrong. It's because you, a married woman, have done so much for your family that I love you so much. You truly deserve my love in this life. I'm just helping you fulfill this wish."
Li Yuzhu threw herself into her husband's arms, tears streaming down her face, and said, "Do you know why I kept having nightmares after the divorce? I was so afraid of losing you. Only when I got our marriage certificate a few months ago did I finally feel relieved, you know that?"
“I understood what you said back then. I felt the same way you did. Our marriage has been through so much, and now we finally have each other.” Dongqing said, gently stroking his wife’s hair, placing a hand on her chest and softly saying, “You can always keep your heart here. I will cherish you as much as I cherish my own life, protecting you for the rest of my life, never leaving you, completely freeing you from the nightmare, so we can enjoy the life we should enjoy.”
At that moment, their hearts merged, and they finally found their way home, like two lost children who had finally returned to their mother's embrace.
Their lives are like a rainbow after a storm; though battered by wind and rain, they remain vibrant and full.
Their lives are like seedlings after a storm, still so unyielding. Only those who have endured the trials of time know what married life is, what marital love is, and what it means to never leave each other.
Hardship is like a whetstone, which makes the blade sharper through friction. Hardship is also like a knife, pruning the branches and forks of life, making life more perfect and flawless.
"Don't think about it too much. What's past is past. Hurry up and pack your things. I'll go tell the manager and we'll go."
After Dong Qing finished speaking, he affectionately kissed his wife on the forehead, gently pushed her away from his arms, stood up, and walked towards the door.
Li Yuzhu raised her hand and touched her forehead, which her husband had just kissed. A feeling of enjoyment, like that of a first kiss, welled up in her heart, and a satisfied smile crept onto her cheeks. Then she packed her luggage.
The next morning, they returned to their hometown city. Li Yuzhu, heavily pregnant, couldn't go home during the day. She would stay there temporarily and could only return home in the evening.
Dongqing drove his truck into a hotel parking lot, booked two rooms, rested there for a day, and then returned home in the evening.
The four of them went out for breakfast first. Li Yuzhu and Su Wei went back to the parking lot to sleep, while he took his wife to the hospital for a prenatal checkup.
Dong Qing hailed a tricycle, helped his wife into it, and headed to the People's Hospital.
The couple went to the hospital to have a prenatal checkup with the older cousin.
Li Yuzhu's cousin led her into the ultrasound room, while Dong Qing waited in the medical room.
My cousin and his wife returned quickly. My cousin handed the test results to Dongqing and said, "Don't worry, cousin, the fetuses are developing normally, and the twins are in the correct positions. They've both been diagnosed as girls. Just go home and rest."
Dongqing said, "Thank you, cousin."
My cousin said, "You're too kind. I'm your cousin, it's only right that I help you."
Dongqing chatted with his cousin for a while, then said goodbye and left the hospital with his wife.
They returned to their guest room in the parking lot, went to bed, and were exhausted from running all night. The couple fell asleep soon after lying down.
In winter, it gets dark early; it's dark by 5:30 pm. They ate some food, checked out at 6 pm, got in the car, and started their journey home.
The city is only 35 kilometers away from my hometown, and it only takes half an hour to drive there.
Back at Li Yuzhu's family villa, Dong Qing said, "Su Wei, the three of us will get out here. You drive the car into the soybean factory. It's too late to unload today; the factory manager will arrange for someone to unload the soybeans tomorrow."
Su Wei said okay, and the three of them got out of the car, started the car, and drove into the bean product factory.
At that time, Su Village was still a rural area. In winter, you couldn't find a single person outside the village at night, and there wasn't even a street lamp.
The bean product factory and Li Yuzhu's family villa are more than 500 meters away from the village. It's hard to find anyone there at this time, so it's safe for Li Yuzhu to come back now.
After Su Wei drove away, Dong Qing helped his wife and sister-in-law walk home together.
Back home, her parents and younger brother were watching TV in the living room. When her mother saw her walk in, she stood up and said, "Daughter, you're finally back."
Dongqing helped his wife to the sofa and said, "Mother, let Yuzhu stay at home for now, and make sure she doesn't go out during the day."
The mother-in-law said, "Don't worry, I understand all this."
