"Wife, you must be tired today. Go lie down and take a nap. I'll call you when the chicken is cooked!" Lu Shiye entered the house and immediately started helping his wife hang up her coat.
"Okay, I'll take a nap first."
I have been pregnant for more than three months. My belly seems to have grown a lot. Other symptoms are gone, but the drowsiness problem still persists.
Cheng Yunan lay down on the bed and fell asleep almost immediately.
Lu Shiye poured her some water and saw that his wife fell asleep. Lu Shiye smiled and came over to kiss her, then turned and left.
Today, he shot four pheasants and two rabbits, which was a big harvest for Lu Jianguo, who always went into the mountains empty-handed.
When Lu Jianguo came back from work, he saw so much game on the field and helped to clean it up.
"Brother, hang up the four pheasants and hares with salt and save them for the festival the day after tomorrow. Now add some potatoes and make some chicken stew with potatoes."
"Okay, I'll go and drown."
In fact, if there is a one-day interval between the chicken and the rabbit, they will not go bad.
But Lu Shiye knew that his wife didn't like meat with strange smell, so he sprinkled a little salt on it and marinated it so that it would taste fresh.
The two brothers were busy in the yard. During this time, some villagers came to deliver goods. Li Hongmei checked them carefully and made records.
The two ladies also liked gossiping, so they stayed and chatted with her.
"Meizi, you're living such a comfortable life. Look how much your man loves you. He doesn't even want you to work!"
I feel sad when I say this.
When Lu Jianguo was talking about marriage before, their family also had the opportunity.
But that evil guy in her family just wouldn't agree.
Now, look what has happened. I've married a useless girl who looks good but is useless. Forget giving her gifts during festivals. It's good enough if she doesn't come to my house to beg for money.
Look at Li Hongmei again. She used to be a fool, always thinking about going to her parents' house to make trouble, and ended up suffering from misfortune. But Lu Jianguo was also a real man. He continued to live with his wife even though she couldn't have children.
The key is that she is living a comfortable life now.
She doesn't have to work at the sewing machine at home. She is responsible for receiving and recording the goods every day, and gives money to the villagers at the end of each month.
Look, everyone in the village wants to curry favor with her.
well!
It turns out that same person has different fates!
"Your sister Xinghua has married well. Look how much she is valued by her husband's family." Li Hongmei complimented.
Auntie Xinghua said, "Meizi, I've been to your house a few times and I've always smelled the smell of Chinese medicine. Are you taking care of yourself?"
Li Hongmei felt that there was nothing shameful about it, so she nodded.
Sister-in-law Guiyun said, "Meizi, you are right. Your family is about to rise. The third child is pregnant. When the fourth child gets married, he will have a child sooner or later. When that happens, Xiaohe will be the only one in your family to suffer the loss!"
"Besides, you can make money now. You won't have to worry about raising a child if you have money in your hands. You should hurry up and get pregnant this year. That way, when you and Jianguo grow old, you will have someone to rely on."
Auntie Xinghua continued, "When your sister Xinghua first got married, she was often bullied by her in-laws. But after she gave birth to two big, fat grandsons, she stood up straight and my in-laws didn't dare to give Xinghua the cold shoulder anymore.
Although men love their wives very much, they will not have confidence without sons.
You are still young, if you take care of yourself the baby will come soon!"
Although Xinghua's mother envied Li Hongmei for having a good marriage, she also felt sad in her heart.
No matter how well she marries, if she can't give birth to a son, she is incompetent.
By comparison, there is nothing wrong with having your own daughter now.
At least she has two sons to support her, so she won't be looked down upon by her husband's family.
When Li Hongmei mentioned her children, her heart ached.
Now she has to go to town to deliver goods every month. She hears and sees a lot. Now that she has become capable, she wants to slap her stupid self in the face.
She had seen with her own eyes how miserable it was for a woman to be unable to have children.
Before, she was on her way to the town and met a woman on the way. She was beaten black and blue. None of her husband's family members tried to persuade her and they just stood by and watched the fun.
Her man threw the woman out of the house like a dead dog.
She heard people around her talking about it and found out that the woman had been married for three years but had not given birth, so her in-laws were forcing her to divorce.
That woman's parents are gone, and she has two older brothers, neither of whom are good people.
The girl was beaten several times, but not only did they not help, they also said that women would rather die than leave their in-laws.
As a result, her husband's family disliked her even more, and made things difficult for her and beat her. Later, the woman couldn't stand it anymore, so she put rat poison in the food of the family, poisoning them all to death. In the end, she also burned down the house and died together with them.
After hearing this, Li Hongmei couldn't help but sigh.
Because she heard so much, she realized how well her in-laws treated her, and she became more inclined towards them.
On the contrary, she really didn't miss her natal family anymore.
After helping her so much, she was completely devoted to her mother's family. Therefore, Li Hongmei was not annoyed when they heard what they said this time. She also said: "Aunt Xinghua is right. I will definitely take good care of myself. Not only for myself, but also for Xiaohe, I have to take good care of my body."
"Oh! That's right. You never listened to me before, but now you know what's good for you."
Li Hongmei nodded after listening.
She originally wanted to talk about how her third brother's wife helped her take care of her health, but she swallowed the words back when they came to her lips.
Her disease cannot be cured in the county hospital, so let's wait until it really works.
She remembered that Guihua's sister-in-law's brother-in-law had been married for almost two years and still hadn't gotten pregnant.
After Li Hongmei finished chatting with them, the rich aroma of chicken soup wafted from the kitchen.
It tastes so good!
It's time for dinner, and she has to hurry to help.
Cheng Yunan was woken up by Lu Shiye.
When I opened my eyes, an hour and a half had already passed.
"I slept for so long!"
"Yeah, you sleep very soundly, like a little piglet. If I wasn't afraid you were hungry, I wouldn't want to call you!" After saying that, he thought his wife looked so cute with sleepy eyes, and he couldn't help but come up to her and kiss her.
"Who are you talking about, piglet?"
"Talk about me, talk about me, my wife is so beautiful, even a pig is the most beautiful pig."
Immediately, Lu Shiye was pinched by Cheng Yunan.
hiss!
My daughter-in-law is quite strong.
"Wife, hurry up, the chicken soup is ready and everyone is waiting."
The fourth brother went to the county town and hasn't come back yet. His mother went to work in the factory, so only he and his brothers are left at home.
"Well, give me a hand!" Cheng Yunan said as he stretched out his hand to him.
Lu Shiye didn't even stretch out his hand, he just bent down and picked the person up.
The weather was not as hot as before, but pregnant women are afraid of heat after all, so Cheng Yunan only wore a thin long-sleeved shirt.
Lu Shiye was afraid that his wife would get cold, so he gave her a set of clothes and let her go wash her hands before eating.
Cheng Yunan enjoyed the whole journey and felt that she was taken care of so well.
Ever since I came back from the land, I have been living a life of luxury.
At home, if Li Hongmei doesn't cook, then Ma Xiulian will do it. When they are busy, Lu Shiye will do it. In short, Cheng Yunan rarely cooks.
This made Cheng Yunan reflect on herself. How about...she cook a meal in the afternoon?
She thought so and acted accordingly, but Lu Shiye also helped her, and she was only responsible for adding seasonings and stir-frying.
Well! It's great to marry the right man.
