Chapter 61: The Proud
Wang Yanhong Since Wang Yanhong married Zhou Da, she has lived a very comfortable life.
The Zhou family replaced her bed, bought her a new set of clothes, and cooked an egg every day for her to supplement her nutrition.
Considering that she was pregnant, the production team arranged easy work for her.
Seeing the educated youths in the educated youth institute going to work in the fields at dawn every day, Wang Yanhong felt a sense of superiority for no reason. No matter
how much Lu Mingfeng doted on Shen Jiale, Shen Jiale also had to work hard to earn work points. Unlike her, as long as she felt tired and hot, the Zhou family would immediately let her go home to rest.
Wang Yanhong, immersed in happiness, did not even feel the previous anger and unwillingness when she saw Jiang Haoran and Zhao Meili getting close.
Jiang Haoran refused to take responsibility, so naturally someone was willing to treat her well.
Wang Yanhong was living a comfortable life, so how could she not show off?
Holding two cucumbers in her hands, Wang Yanhong came to the educated youth institute while eating.
Tang Xiaotian was sweating profusely, cooking in the kitchen.
Next door, Shen Jiale was also cooking.
Wang Yanhong saw it and said proudly: "It's so hot, it's really not easy to cook in the kitchen, fortunately I don't have to cook."
Wu Li enviously said: "You don't even have to cook at home, it's so comfortable."
Wang Yanhong gave Wu Li a cucumber and said: "With my mother-in-law at home, I don't have to do anything. Zhou Da also loves me very much. He goes to the town to buy me egg cakes every few days. I'm tired of eating them and just want to eat something light."
Sun Xiaoqin asked: "Can you eat meat often? I ate meat at Shen Jiale's wedding last time."
Wang Yanhong said calmly: "Although meat is not often eaten, eggs have never stopped. My mother-in-law cooks an egg for me every day."
"No wonder you look so good."
"You are so lucky to have such a nice mother-in-law."
"Don't judge a book by its cover. Although Zhou Da doesn't look that good, he is really good to you."
Amid the envious voices of the educated youth, Wang Yanhong felt extremely satisfied in her heart.
Yan Xiaohua said, "Shen Jiale is going to build a tiled house. The Zhou family has been so good to you, when will they build it for you?"
Wang Yanhong's face changed slightly when she heard this: "We live in two rooms now. It's very spacious. We don't need it."
Tang Xiaotian wiped the sweat from her face, came in and said, "If you can't build it, just say so. Who wouldn't want to live in a tiled house if they have money? Wait until you live in a tiled house before you come here to show off."
Wang Yanhong said, "I know you are jealous, I won't argue with you."
Tang Xiaotian laughed: "Are you jealous of you marrying a man who is 8 years older than you?"
Tang Xiaotian's words made Wang Yanhong very disappointed. It happened that the educated youth were about to have dinner, and no one listened to her bragging anymore. Wang Yanhong left in boredom.
When they returned to the Zhou family, Widow Zhou had already put the meal on the table. Seeing Wang Yanhong coming back, she immediately took a towel to wipe the sweat off Wang Yanhong and said with concern: "It's hot. If you want to exercise, go out for a walk in the evening. Don't let my grandson get hot."
"Mom, if your grandson has a tiled house to live in as soon as he is born, you don't have to worry about being hot in the future."
Widow Zhou smiled and said, "I'll build it for you when the child is born."
"Since we have to prepare to build it, it doesn't matter if we build it early or late, so we might as well build it early."
Widow Zhou lowered her eyes and thought for a moment, then said to Zhou Da, "Okay, you go and ask the person who built the house for the Lu family how much it costs, and we'll build it too."
Zhou Da said, "But our family doesn't have enough money to build a house."
Widow Zhou said, "You don't have to worry about that."
Wang Yanhong felt happy when she heard that.
A few days later, the news that the Zhou family was going to build a tiled house spread.
Even if they only built one room, it would arouse the envy of the villagers.
Wang Yanhong was only concerned with showing off at the Youth Institute, and did not notice that her mother-in-law's face was pale.
...
Since she wrote a letter to her family to tell them about her marriage, Shen Jiale has not received any letters from home.
Knowing that her parents must be angry, Shen Jiale suddenly felt very powerless.
Unable to tell the truth, Shen Jiale could only send some food home every once in a while, all of which were food added with spring water.
On this day, the postman came to deliver the mail again.
Shen Jiale was extremely excited when she heard the postman calling her name.
Shen Jiale, who was ready to be scolded, opened the letter and found that her father was just telling her to live a good life and did not mean to blame her.
There was another letter in the envelope, written by the mother.
The letter said that when the father first received the letter, he was very angry and tore up all the photos sent by Shen Jiale.
Later, under the persuasion of his eldest brother and mother, his father glued the photos back together and went to a fortune teller to have his fortune told. After that, he was no longer angry.
The mother asked her to be patient. Now the situation in the factory is a bit tense. Director Zhao has been fired.
Before, Director Zhao had been arranging relationships to bring Zhao Meili back to the city, but it didn't work out and he was caught by others.
Therefore, they can't take Shen Jiale back for the time being.
Seeing this, Shen Jiale glanced at Zhao Meili who was resting in the field, and Jiang Haoran was delivering water to her.
I don't know how Zhao Meili would feel when she knew the situation at home.
Anyway, when I found out about it in my last life, it was as if the sky had fallen.
...
Lu Mingfeng gave full authority to the construction team to build the house.
Shen Jiale only provided lunch at noon, so the construction team worked very hard and made faster progress on the four houses than Lu Mingqi's two.
The Zhou family only built one house, but the progress was the same as Shen Jiale's.
I don't know if it was because she worked too hard when building the house or because the weather was too hot, but Widow Zhou became very weak, often felt dizzy, and fainted from time to time.
Zhou Da wanted to take her to the hospital for treatment, but Widow Zhou was unwilling and just said it was because the weather was too hot.
Widow Zhou was like this, so Wang Yanhong had to do the housework.
Wang Yanhong was pampered by the Zhou family during this period. She became a little arrogant and even pretended to be weak while holding her belly.
Widow Zhou was widowed at an early age. She was able to raise two sons and was not someone who could be easily manipulated. She saw Wang Yanhong's thoughts at a glance.
She did not force Wang Yanhong to do housework, but told Zhou Da that her health was not good and Zhou Da was already married, so she didn't have to worry.
But Zhou Er had not married yet, so the new house would be left for Zhou Er to marry a wife.
Zhou Er was delighted to hear this.
When Wang Yanhong heard this, her face changed immediately: "Mom, you said that the new house is for your eldest grandson to live in."
Zhou Da said in a stern voice: "How can you talk to your mother? In this family, your mother has the final say. Whoever your mother says to give the house to will get it, and it's not your turn to decide."
Wang Yanhong saw that Zhou Da had changed from his usual gentleness and consideration, and she felt a great psychological gap, so she felt wronged.
"If you don't give me the new house, I won't give birth to this child!" As she said this, she beat her belly.
The Zhou family immediately became nervous.
"Boss, don't let her hurt my grandson!" Widow Zhou hurriedly told her son to stop Wang Yanhong.
Wang Yanhong thought her mother-in-law compromised for the sake of the child, but Zhou Da grabbed her hand and slapped her in the face.
"You dare to hit my son, I think you are tired of living!"
Widow Zhou said, "Boss, she is still pregnant, don't be too heavy next time."
Zhou Da's ferocious look scared Wang Yanhong.
How could this happen?
Was the kindness to her before fake?
But now she has no time to think about these things. In Yaoshui Village, she has no relatives, and the only one she can rely on is the Zhou family.
If the Zhou family doesn't care about her, she is pregnant now, earns little work points, and can't even eat enough.
Fortunately, the Zhou family still cared about the baby in her belly, so Wang Yanhong could only do housework honestly.
Widow Zhou did not make things difficult for her by asking her to do heavy work because she was pregnant. Instead, she asked her to pay more attention to rest and not to disturb the fetus.
Wang Yanhong was too embarrassed to show off at the Youth Institute.
