She felt scared, and the two mothers-in-law over there laughed when they heard it.
"Oh, you young girls are just naive. It's not that difficult for a woman to give birth to a child. It's as easy as an old hen laying eggs."
"That's right. When I gave birth to my third child, I was still working in the fields. I was born right at the edge of the field. Haven't I been fine all these years?
When Li Hongli heard this, her face turned green: "When a woman gives birth, she is risking her life. How can it be so easy?"
"Easy, easy. I told you. As easy as a hen laying eggs."
One of the old ladies was still talking.
Li Hongli was so angry that she wanted to quarrel. These two shrews! Old things! Whoever becomes their daughter-in-law will be unlucky.
Just when I was about to burst into curses, the door of the ward was suddenly pushed open with a bang.
A fat woman who looked to be about 140 pounds walked in with a bulging belly. She glanced around the room with contempt, and her posture was like that of a female King Kong.
One of the mothers-in-law's face suddenly changed, and she quickly stood up with a smile: "Feng, you're back? How is your food? Are you feeling uncomfortable? You're going to give birth in two days. What else do you want to eat? I'll ask the third child to buy it for you."
The woman gave her a cold look and said unceremoniously, "Mom, my real mom is here. You have nothing to do here. Go back."
"This, this is not good. It is said that when a woman is giving birth, her mother should not be around." Her mother-in-law was anxious.
"Who said that?"
The fat woman widened her eyes and shouted.
Her mother-in-law slapped her thigh anxiously: "Oh, Feng, this is the rule passed down from our ancestors!!"
"Our ancestors have a rule that mothers-in-law over the age of 60 will be thrown to the back hill to fend for themselves. Why didn't the third brother throw you over there?" said the fat woman.
Her mother-in-law's face changed immediately and she shuddered with fear.
The old lady who was chatting with her animatedly next to her immediately moved aside without making a sound. The daughter-in-law of this family is a powerful person and not to be trifled with!
"Okay, okay, I'll go back right away." The fat woman's mother-in-law quickly packed up her things and left dejectedly.
The fat woman then lay on her sickbed with her bulging belly. She seemed to be quite outgoing. In contrast to her fierce attitude towards the old woman just now, she asked Li Hongli with a smile: "How are you? For us women, giving birth is like going through the gates of hell. First of all, we must eat well and have a good attitude, so that we can have more energy when giving birth in the future."
Li Hongli was admiring her and said quickly, "My fetus is in a bad position. I'll stay in the hospital for a while. It's still too early to give birth."
"You are just too thin. Do you skip meals regularly?" said the woman.
The two started chatting.
Chen Xiaoying breathed a sigh of relief, thinking about it, and told the boss Li Hongwei: "Call and ask if Hongxia has come back. The phone record is on the hot pot restaurant's phone, the one starting with 886. You can find it if you look for it."
Hongxia is here and can take care of Hongli.
The eldest daughter, Li Hongyan, is now taking care of the old man and cannot leave.
As she wished, there was a sound of hurried footsteps outside the door, and her eldest daughter Li Hongyan ran in.
Li Hongyan had just gone out to buy food for her father Li Pingwang. Her father was not used to the food in the clinic. After she came back and served her father a meal, she heard that a pregnant woman, who was in so much pain that her stomach wasn't even full yet, was taken to the hospital for emergency treatment while she was washing the rice bowl at the sink.
I heard that she was beaten by her in-laws.
Li Hongyan listened and felt that it did not apply to her second sister Li Hongli's situation. Li Hongli was not married, so that was not her husband's family.
However, she kept a secret in mind, so she went to ask the nurse at the maternity and delivery area if there was a patient named Li Hongli hospitalized there, whose condition seemed serious.
As soon as the nurse said her name, Li Hongxia immediately became anxious: "This is my sister. I don't know what happened to my mother."
After asking for the room number, he came quickly.
"Mom, how are you?" She asked her mother Chen Xiaoying in a hurry. When she saw that her mother was fine, she turned around and saw the bruised and swollen boss Li Hongwei. She was so scared that she almost jumped up: "Oh my God, you shameless bastard, why did you beat you like this? Where are you, where are the people in that family?"
She rolled up her sleeves and prepared to settle the score with someone.
When Li Hongli saw her elder sister Li Hongyan, she felt like she had found her backbone and immediately burst into tears: "Sister, what do you think I should do?"
Li Hongxia then noticed Li Hongli lying on the bed. Her face looked fine and she hadn't been hit, but she was hanging a drip and her face was pale. It was obvious that something was wrong. "How's your stomach?"
Li Hongli cried so hard that she couldn't speak.
Their mother Chen Xiaoying didn't want to pay attention to Li Hongyan, but it was the eldest child Li Hongwei who said, "What else can we do? The child is alive, and she is alive. If the child can't live, she can't live either."
After hearing what her elder brother said, Li Hongli sobbed even louder.
The tall and fit fat pregnant woman next to her realized something was wrong and her eyes widened.
"What about Xu Xiaodong? Where is he? He still doesn't want to take responsibility?" Li Hongyan was very angry.
The eldest, Li Hongwei, didn't want to talk to her: "I'm going to go see how Dad is doing."
Li Hongyan said, "Then you go take care of Dad. I'm here with my second sister. There's no point in you staying here."
When Chen Xiaoying saw that Li Hongyan was going to stay here, she didn't want to talk to her, but she remembered that her eldest daughter was cunning and always likes to stir up trouble, so she immediately said, "You are not needed here, you should go home, or go and serve your father."
The eldest daughter Li Hongyan felt wronged: "Mom, I feel sorry for you taking care of your second sister at such an old age. I just want to help you. Besides, Hongli is my second sister. How can I harm her?"
Chen Xiaoying didn't know what to say for a moment.
The eldest daughter, Li Hongyan, loves money like her life. It’s not that she has no affection for her mother’s family, but family affection cannot compare to money.
Something happened to Li Hongli, and she was really worried.
Chen Xiaoying didn't know what to say. How could a person's personality be so complicated? One moment he would be extremely affectionate to you, anxious and crying, and the next moment he would plot against you behind your back.
Let her not take care of Li Hongli. They are sisters and both adults. She can't stop her even if she wants to.
Whatever.
only.
She said, "Your two sisters are very poor and have no money for you to calculate."
The eldest daughter, Li Hongyan, frowned and said, "Mom, what are you talking about? I promised you that I will not do that again."
It was said lightly. Her mother Chen Xiaoying snorted: "I will believe you only when you return the money you kept for me."
Li Hongyan felt suffocated, but she was in the wrong, so she could only mutter: "It's not like I won't pay it back. I said I would pay it back when I have money."
When she has money, whenever she has money, just marrying wives and building houses for her three sons would be a bottomless pit, not to mention that she later gave birth to five grandchildren.
She never had enough money.
Li Hongli was anxious: "Hey, stop talking about your own business and help me think of a solution. What should I do?"
"Mom, I still want to marry Xiaodong. If you report Xiaodong to the police, will he still marry me?"
"Sister, what do you think we should do? Please help me persuade mom. Let her go to the police station and tell them that Xiaodong and I are just dating normally. We are not forcing each other. Let them release Xiaodong as soon as possible."
