Chapter 778: Old Lady Zhang
: "Your eldest grandson is still in your daughter-in-law's belly!"
Old Lady Zhang curled her lips when she heard this, looking unhappy. "Otherwise, why would I say she is a jinx? When I was pregnant with my son, I did everything at home. I washed clothes, cooked, fed the chickens and ducks, and got up before dawn every day. I went to bed only after everyone else in the family was asleep.
Even though I'm busy all day, isn't the baby still in my womb? If I'm pregnant, I'm not a daughter-in-law anymore? I don't have to serve my parents-in-law and husband? There's no such good thing in the world! It's just that the wives nowadays are all wild, and they feel uncomfortable when asked to do something!
Who does she think she is? A daughter of a landlord? As a daughter-in-law in the countryside, isn't it her job to take care of everything at home? Serving her parents-in-law and her husband, that's her duty!
She who doesn't even care about her duty deserves to be taken away by God!"
Old Mrs. Zhang is very talkative. She never stops talking once she opens her mouth.
Su Ruanruan listened patiently and learned about her family's situation. "Then how did she fall today?"
Old Lady Zhang curled her lips again when she heard this, "What else can she do? I saw that the snow outside was light, so I asked her to wash the dirty clothes that had accumulated over the past few days and bring them into the house to dry them on the kang. Otherwise, there wouldn't even be any clothes left at home to change into! Just imagine, she couldn't even do such a small thing!
I didn't ask her to go to the river either. I just boiled some snow at home and used it to wash clothes. She washed clothes in the yard. How could she slip? How could she fall down? In my opinion, she did it on purpose! When I was pregnant with my son, I didn't have to delay fetching water and chopping wood!
She is a jinx, a thief who lacks great virtue! She has been in my family for so many years, but she hasn't even given birth to a girl!
If the woman hadn't said it was a son, I would have divorced her long ago!"
Su Ruanruan's eyebrows jumped. "Feudal superstition is no longer popular nowadays. Who told you that she was pregnant with a son? Did you ask someone to calculate it for you?"
Although Old Lady Zhang was a farmer, she knew the seriousness of the matter and denied it repeatedly, "You little girl, why do you say nonsense? Did you see me find someone to settle it? I've said so much, but you haven't told me yet! Can the child be saved?"
Su Ruanruan already knew what she needed to know, and she didn't want to waste time talking to the old lady anymore, so she said, "Who will go with me to get the formalities done? You have to pay for the surgery, do you have the money?"
When Mrs. Zhang heard that she still needed money, she wanted to cry poor immediately. However, after Su Runrun glared at her, she shut her mouth in dismay.
"Aren't hospitals supposed to be places for saving lives and healing the wounded? Why do they want our money? Is it easy for us farmers to earn a living all year round?"
"mom!"
Old Lady Zhang glanced at the man who called her, "Forget it! For the sake of my grandson, I won't bother with her today! If anything happens to my grandson, let her die here! What a jinx!"
Zhang Dagui had long been accustomed to Old Lady Zhang's scolding, so he just listened silently. After Old Lady Zhang gave him the money, he took the money and walked up to Su Ruanruan.
"Nurse, where do I go to do the formalities?"
"Come with me!"
"Hey! Ok, ok! Sorry to bother you!"
