The family's surname is Sun and they are from a rural area in the neighboring province. A few years ago, Xu Lingling was part of the last batch of educated youth sent to the countryside. She was very young at the time and could not stand the hard work in the fields, and she often cried from exhaustion.
Sun Peng, a young man in the village, fell in love with Xu Lingling, who was fair and a little spoiled. He always helped her with work, and soon the two of them became a couple.
The Sun family did not quite agree with their son marrying an educated youth. There were several educated youth wives in the village, but they were all pampered and not as capable as the village girls.
If my son marries someone like this, he will have to endure a lot of hardship. In the next few years, many educated youth will return to the city. Don't let everything go to waste by then.
But the young man who was in love would never listen to the advice of his family and insisted on marrying Xu Lingling.
Xu Lingling didn't dare tell her family or her in-laws that their home was too far away and her mother-in-law had to go to work and didn't have time to come over. She didn't get a marriage certificate and just married into the Sun family.
At the beginning, their life was very sweet and the couple loved each other very much. Xu Lingling originally thought that marrying a villager would make her life much easier and she wouldn't have to do so much farm work.
Who would have thought that after getting married, one would not only have to do farm work, but also more housework, such as making clothes for the whole family, cooking, feeding pigs, cutting grass for pigs... It was even more tiring than when I was an educated youth.
At the beginning, Sun Peng would help her, but every time his mother-in-law saw him, she would scold him. Gradually, all the work fell on her alone. She dragged her tired body every day, and she never stopped for a single day, even from pregnancy to delivery.
She wanted to go to the hospital to give birth, but her mother-in-law refused. Which woman doesn't want to give birth to a child? But she was so precious, so she was allowed to give birth at home.
She was so scared that she called home when she was about to die.
At that time, Xu's mother was so angry that she was about to go crazy. When she left, she said that she would stay there for a few days and they would find a working relationship for her. Now she wants to give up the whole child.
No matter how angry they were, there was nothing they could do. The couple took a train overnight to rush to Dong, where they saw their daughter, who had suffered a difficult birth, and almost died on the broken kang that didn't even have a mat.
Xu's mother rushed her daughter to the hospital, and she gave birth to a little girl with heavy bleeding due to difficult labor. The doctor said that it might affect her future childbirths, and she needed to take good care of herself.
Xu's mother hugged Xu Lingling and cried, blaming her for being so disobedient.
Xu Xu was so angry that he was spinning around.
The Sun family members also followed to the hospital. When they saw the baby girl, Sun's mother turned around and left. Sun Peng stood stupidly beside the bed, which made the Xu couple even more angry.
Xu's mother wanted to bring Xu Lingling back, but Xu Lingling was reluctant to let go of the girl who had just gotten married and also because she still had feelings for Sun Qiang, so she refused.
Xu's mother was also heartbroken. If she was willing to suffer, let her suffer enough. Before leaving, she still secretly gave Xu Lingling some money.
In this way, Xu Lingling continued to live with Sun Peng.
Sun's mother was dissatisfied with Xu Lingling's having a girl, so she asked Xu Lingling to prepare for another one right after she finished her confinement. At that time, the doctor said that it would affect Xu Lingling's future childbirth, but no one in the Sun family heard it.
