Ye Weiwei was just about to take advantage of the fight between the two to pick up a piece of trash when Huo Xiao knew what she was going to do as soon as she reached out with her chopsticks and grabbed her hand.
Ye Weiwei pretended to be nonchalant as she looked at Huo Xiao, "I'll pick up a piece of pork rib to eat."
Huo Xiao pointed to her bowl, "You haven't eaten what's in your bowl yet."
Ye Weiwei looked down at the three small ribs left in her bowl, her expression miserable. Why was it so hard to get a bite of roasted rabbit meat?
I don't know where Huo Xiao heard it from, but he said that pregnant women can't eat rabbit meat, otherwise they will give birth to a child with a cleft lip. So, he wouldn't let her eat a single bite of rabbit meat.
As a result, she could only look on with envy at the delicious roasted rabbit meat!
"Eating rabbit meat is really fine. Besides, I'll only eat a little bit, not much." Ye Weiwei held up one finger. "Just one piece!"
She really went to great lengths just to have some barbecue!
Rabbit meat is considered a cooling food and should not be eaten in large quantities. Only excessive consumption can cause symptoms such as indigestion and diarrhea.
The claim that pregnant women who eat rabbit meat will give birth to babies with cleft lips is utter nonsense.
Huo Xiao unusually insisted, "We'll eat it later."
Ye Weiwei gritted her teeth and said in a low voice, "Huo Xiao, you're questioning my professionalism!"
Huo Xiao remained stubborn, saying, "It's better to believe it exists than to believe it doesn't."
Ye Weiwei: ……
Just as Ye Weiwei was about to lash out, Huo Xiao suddenly released Ye Weiwei's hand as if nothing had happened, "It's gone."
Upon hearing this, Ye Weiwei looked up and saw that Xu Meijun's cheeks were bulging with food stuffed in her mouth, and she was looking at Xie Ning triumphantly.
Xie Ning looked at Xu Meijun with annoyance: "You cheated!"
Xu Meijun raised her chin, her expression clearly saying: "A skill is what you get!"
Little Star, seeing them arguing and afraid they would fight, held Ye Weiwei's hand and whispered, "Auntie, why are they so unruly when they eat? Little Star doesn't grab any food."
He thought he was speaking very quietly, but everyone at the table heard him clearly. Xu Meijun suddenly felt that the meat she had finally managed to snatch was no longer delicious, and she quickly swallowed it down. She then explained to Xiaoxing, "Xiaoxing, Aunt Xu and Uncle Xie were just showing everyone through their actions that what we did was wrong, so you must not do it like that! Xiaoxing did a very good job."
Little Star nodded blankly, her little face showing a conflicted expression, clearly not fooled.
After this little incident, everyone ate much more "refinedly" from then on, but they still ate very quickly.
After finishing their meal, Chen Jiali, Hou Zheng, and the others helped clear the table and wash the dishes. The group then played there until after 4 p.m. before declining Ye Weiwei's invitation to stay for dinner and returning to their educated youth settlement.
As Xu Meijun left Ye Weiwei's house, she saw Lu Xiaolan standing not far away, looking in their direction. Upon noticing them, Lu Xiaolan suddenly darted back, as if something was chasing her, leaving them completely bewildered.
Chen Jiali frowned: "There's only Weiwei's family in this village. What is Lu Xiaolan up to with that shifty look? Is she holding a grudge against Weiwei and trying to cause trouble again?"
Xu Meijun sneered: "Her?"
act recklessly!
Although she wasn't sure, she felt in her heart that Lu Xiaolan's unusual behavior these past two days was inseparable from Ye Weiwei.
Lu Xiaolan watched from the shadows as Xu Meijun and the other three left Ye Weiwei's house. Thinking of the laughter and chatter she had heard coming from Ye Weiwei's house, she was so angry that her face twisted in anger.
Returning home in a huff and a blast of cold air, Lu Xiaolan was met with Niu Li looking at her as if she were something dirty. She snapped, "What kind of look is that? A hen that can't lay eggs dares to act all high and mighty in our house. You've spoiled her rotten!"
"You..." Niu Li trembled with anger, pointing her finger at Lu Xiaolan's nose and yelling, "Who are you calling a hen that can't lay eggs? Lu Xiaolan, you dare say it again!"
"What's wrong with saying it again?" Lu Xiaolan grabbed Niu Li's hand and pushed her to the side, causing Niu Li to fall to the ground.
Niu Li suddenly felt a sharp pain in her lower abdomen, as if something was draining from her body. Her face turned deathly pale, and her lips trembled as she called out, "Lu Chenggong... Lu..."
Lu Xiaolan looked at Niu Li with disdain, "You shameless vixen, all you do is complain to my brother. I just gave you a light push, what are you pretending for!"
Lu Chenggong ran out of the house when he heard Niu Li's shout. When he saw Niu Li sitting on the ground with a pale face, he was startled: "What happened to you?"
Niu Li gripped Lu Chenggong's arm tightly, "The child...our child..."
Lu Chenggong then noticed blood seeping from under Niu Li's buttocks and was immediately terrified. He rushed into the house and shouted to Aunt Zhang, "Mom, Niu Li is bleeding... a lot of blood..."
Aunt Zhang originally didn't want to get involved in these trivial matters, but for some reason, her daughter-in-law and daughter just didn't get along. Ever since Niu Li married into the family, the two of them have been arguing every day, giving her a headache.
But upon hearing her son's words, Aunt Zhang realized something and rushed out in fright. Seeing Niu Li's expression, she panicked as well and quickly pushed Lu Chenggong, "What are you standing there for? Get her to the hospital right away!"
Lu Chenggong suddenly realized what was happening and was about to go find the oxcart when Niu Li grabbed his arm tightly. "Find...find Ye Weiwei..."
Lu Xiaolan realized she had caused trouble. She was feeling guilty at first, but when she heard Niu Li mention Ye Weiwei's name, she immediately flew into a rage. Anger overwhelmed her reason, and she roared, "Don't go! Don't go to see Ye Weiwei!"
Cold sweat poured down Niu Li's face, and her lips were bloodless. She glared fiercely at Lu Xiaolan, then looked at Lu Chenggong, "Go quickly..."
Lu Xiaolan rushed to the door and blocked it, shouting, "Don't you dare go! If you dare to go to see that bitch Ye Weiwei, don't even think about leaving this room!"
Lu Chenggong felt like strangling his sister. He grabbed Lu Xiaolan and tried to throw her aside, but Lu Xiaolan clung to him and wouldn't let go, refusing to let him go to Ye Weiwei. She kept shouting, "What relationship do we have with Ye Weiwei? Aren't you afraid that Ye Weiwei will deliberately cause trouble?"
Aunt Zhang's expression was grim. Lu Mingcai came out of the house and said, "What are you all standing there for? Go find the village and borrow an oxcart. Get her to the town hospital right away!"
Lu Chenggong looked at his wife, then at his father, and forcefully pushed Lu Xiaolan away. "I'll go borrow an oxcart."
After saying that, he ran away quickly.
Niu Li closed her eyes, feeling waves of pain in her stomach, and a tear silently rolled down her cheek.
She had a premonition that she wouldn't be able to save the baby in her womb.
This was the child she had finally conceived after two years of marriage, but unexpectedly, it left her soon after birth.
She opened her eyes and stared intently at Lu Xiaolan!
It's all because of this woman!
It's all this woman's fault!
