The small clothes made by Zhang Xiangyun had fine stitches and exquisite patterns, and she was praised a lot. Ruan Niannian was even willing to let her follow her.
This is something I never dared to think about before.
Walking back in a daze, Zhang Xiangyun felt that it was less real than a dream.
Pei Jianhui was doing his homework. When he saw her coming back in a daze, he quickly ran over to support her. "Mom, what's wrong with you? Are you feeling unwell?"
"No, I'm not feeling uncomfortable." Zhang Xiangyun's eyes began to focus, and when she saw Pei Jianhui, she hugged him, "Jianhui, you are right, your aunt is a good person, and from now on, Mom will follow her and will not listen to anyone else but her!"
The mother and son then talked to each other from the bottom of their hearts, and both felt that the future was becoming more and more promising.
On the other side, Ruan Niannian was about to put away her clothes but was stopped by Wu Xinghua.
"Niannian, my sister-in-law said that newly made clothes need to be washed a little older so that they are softer and don't get bruised. I'll wash them once, and then wash them a second and third time after a while. That way they will be comfortable to wear."
Ruan Niannian thought that Li Jinhua had indeed said such words, so she followed Wu Xinghua.
Pei Yuanzheng had spent money to hire her anyway. If she only cooked for her and washed two sets of clothes every day, Wu Xinghua would feel that five dollars a month was too much to pay.
A few days ago, she said that she should give less, and she was very sincere.
Wu Xinghua gathered a pile of clothes and put them in the big bathtub. She used the hanging bucket six times to fill the bathtub.
Then she moved a small stool next to the bathtub, sat on it, picked up a piece of clothing and started rubbing it bit by bit.
Ruan Niannian watched her carefully rubbing the clothes and couldn't help but sigh in her heart, "What a good girl. Look how carefully she rubs the clothes, and she rubs them so many times. The clothes she washes must be very soft."
But Wu Xinghua didn't seem to be feeling the same as she thought.
Wu Xinghua was thinking: A dog will always eat shit. Although Zhang Xiangyun is not a dog, she was so bad before, how can she change all of a sudden? She might be very jealous, and there might be a needle hidden in one of her clothes!
As she thought this, her hands moved more carefully, rubbing the clothes bit by bit, not missing a single piece of fabric and checking every small piece.
Ruan Niannian felt sleepy while watching her wash clothes, so she went back to her room and took a nap; by the time Wu Xinghua finished washing the clothes, it was already eleven o'clock.
No matter how carefully she washed, she couldn't find a needle in these small clothes. Wu Xinghua began to doubt herself. Could it be that Zhang Xiangyun had really changed?
No! It must not be that simple. She must have done nothing on purpose to lower their guard this time! She would have to be more careful in checking the things Zhang Xiangyun sent over next time.
Wu Xinghua talked about conspiracy theories for a while, then quickly hung the clothes in the yard and went to make lunch.
There was some wild boar meat left, so she added ginger and garlic and stewed it until it was well-cooked. She then tore the meat into thin strips and stir-fried it with green peppers. It was so delicious.
On the night when the brothers from the clan came to eat the pig-killing meal, Li Jinhua cooked it once. Ruan Niannian liked it very much and ate a lot. Wu Xinghua went to ask how it was cooked and learned how to cook it specifically for Ruan Niannian.
After dinner, Ruan Niannian hadn't gotten up yet, so she didn't go to call her.
Pregnant women are like this, they can eat and sleep. The more they sleep, the faster the baby in their belly grows. She just needs to keep the food warm so she can eat it anytime when she wakes up.
After cooking, Ruan Niannian went to the next door and Wu Lanhua had just returned.
"Sister, what's wrong with you? The rabbits have just been sold out?"
Wu Lanhua rolled her eyes at her and said, "Rabbits are so popular, how could they be sold out only at this time? Your two brothers-in-law have been chatting until this late."
After she finished speaking, she glared at Pei Qingyang who came in later.
"Wife, you really wronged me. Fourth brother is my boss now. Whenever he comes to talk to me about something, would I dare not go? If fourth brother's wife comes to you about something, can you not go?" Pei Qingyang quickly defended himself.
Wu Xinghua snorted and said nonchalantly, "My sister-in-law is looking for me because she wants to help me make money. I wish she would look for me. As for my fourth brother looking for you, he is just arranging work for you. Your salary has not changed. If this continues, you will not earn as much as I do."
She doesn't mind if a man doesn't earn as much as she does.
But she minds that the man doesn't earn as much as she does, is busier than her, and even has a tan!
The most unbearable thing is that Pei Qingyang has become tanned. Doesn’t he know that what attracts her most about him is his fair and clean face?
Pei Qingyang didn't dare to say anything. He felt that Wu Lanhua didn't know what was going on. It seemed that she didn't love him as much as before. Was it really because he didn't earn as much as she did during this period?
No way, he had to go back and talk to Pei Yuanzheng about it. He worked so hard, how could he not get a raise?
Wu Xinghua glanced at the dejected Pei Qingyang and moved closer to him, scaring Pei Qingyang so much that he stepped back repeatedly.
My heart was screaming: Don't come over here! Why are you still so close to me when you're already married?!
Unexpectedly, Wu Xinghua said lightly: "Brother-in-law, you have become rough recently. No wonder my sister is not as nice to you as before. Why don't you buy some clam shell oil to rub it?"
After saying that, she didn't even look at Pei Qingyang again and ran to gossip with Wu Lanhua who was cooking in the kitchen.
"Oh, sister, if I had known you would be coming back so late today, I would have cooked more so you wouldn't have to cook when you come back so late." Wu Xinghua said hypocritically, glancing outside.
This is called making a veiled attack on someone else. Ruan Niannian taught me this.
This one sentence made Pei Qingyang, who had just doubted himself because of what Wu Xinghua said, hold his breath and turn around and walk into the kitchen.
It would be fine if they said he had become ugly, but he was also trying to sow discord between him and his wife. He really couldn't tolerate that.
After entering the kitchen, Pei Qingyang snatched the tool from Wu Lanhua's hand and said domineeringly: "Wife, the sisters are here to see you, just take a break, I will cook lunch today."
There was no way he could let Wu Xinghua make his wife even more resentful with just a few words.
At the same time, Pei Qingyang was also reflecting on himself. Was he really that rough?
Ugly?
Not as pretty as before?
That shouldn’t be the case. A few days ago, his wife praised him for his abdominal muscles and said he looked better. It’s really hard to guess what women are thinking!
While Pei Qingyang was cooking with tears in her eyes, Wu Xinghua had already told Wu Lanhua the story of Zhang Xiangyun trying to please Ruan Niannian, adding fuel to the fire.
Wu Lanhua was very calm and only asked her, "Did you wash out the needle?"
"No..." Wu Xinghua bit her lip, "Maybe she didn't put the needle in, but did something else. Sister, how can a bad person become good all of a sudden? She must be planning to be bad!"
Wu Lanhua was amused by her statement. "You fool, do you think it's the same as in the picture book? The bad guys are bad guys throughout the book, and the good guys are always good guys?"
