Chapter 188: The Only Sister
Even if Li Qianqian didn't say it, Shen Meng could already imagine how neglectful Mrs. Yang would be to her from the moment she entered the room. However, it was useless for her to know. Others had to know it, including Director Hu and Hu Biao, and Secretary Li. Otherwise, if Li Qianqian said it alone, they would think that she was being hypocritical.
As for Li Qianqian calling her sister, she naturally took advantage of the situation.
"Qianqian, what a coincidence! When I came here today, I asked your brother-in-law to borrow a camera from a friend. But you have to keep this camera a secret because it is a little special. I originally wanted to take a photo of you and the baby as a souvenir, but I didn't expect you to suffer so much. Mrs. Yang is from the country, and you can tell from her expression that she is not happy about this. I guess it was your mother-in-law's idea. Otherwise, why would she go to the country at this time? It must be because she wants to take care of you during your confinement. "If they want to control you, your husband, your father-in-law and your parents will know about this. But words are not enough, there must be evidence."
Li Qianqian has been spoiled since she was a child. Originally, it was just Mrs. Yang's own idea. But thinking about her status, the daughter of a secretary and the daughter-in-law of a factory director, how could an ordinary old lady dare to treat her and her child like this when she was paid 30 yuan a month to take care of her and her child during the confinement period? Sister Meng was smart and revealed the secret. Wasn't it her mother-in-law who wanted to control her?
She really didn't understand. There were so many outstanding young men that she didn't want to be with, and she was with Hu Biao. Her father-in-law and Hu Biao were both very good to her. Why did she, an old woman from the countryside, have to deal with so many problems? Her family could live a peaceful life, but she had to go through the feudal system of mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, and make her obey their orders. What's wrong with her?
"Sister Meng, you take the pictures. I know you mean to me and want to help me. I'm not afraid of being embarrassed. Don't worry about keeping it a secret. I won't tell anyone about this."
Shen Meng took out a black Polaroid camera from the bag she took, adjusted it to retro black and white mode, and then said to her, "I'll go out first and start taking pictures from the moment you enter the door. Just have a normal expression and don't be nervous. Qianqian, you're a good girl. Since you call me sister, I will do my best to help you. From today on, I will let your mother-in-law beg you to come back and let her serve her. From now on, I will never dare to neglect you again, otherwise these photos will appear in the hands of her precious grandson, and when the child grows up, he will know how his grandmother treated him and his mother when he was born."
Li Qianqian's eyes welled up with tears after hearing what Shen Meng said. That picture was particularly good material.
Shen Meng turned around and walked out the door. Mrs. Yang stood up from the sofa immediately. Just when she was about to ask something, she saw Shen Meng walk back in with her arms raised.
"You are sick. You come in and out again. You don't mind the trouble."
She was just an old country woman. After Shen Meng walked in, she lay at the door for a while, trying to listen to something. The young man next to her started asking questions and took out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket. Although she didn't smoke, she could exchange money. This was a good thing. She now felt that the two people who came today were very discerning, and she was not afraid at all.
Isn't that what a woman should do during the confinement period? She has food, drink, eggs, and chickens. What else can she want? If she makes trouble again, she is just being hypocritical and making a fuss. She has always said this before, and everyone listens!
From the moment she opened the door to the moment she took the photo of the child crying and looking dark and thin, coupled with Shen Meng's deliberate composition, it's as if the mother and child were abused. Just looking at the photos, you can tell how miserable their life was.
After the photos were taken, she let Li Qianqian take a look, and then wrapped all the photos with hand silk and put them in her pocket.
"Qianqian, in addition to visiting you and the child today, I also brought someone here. He is the son of one of my oldest sisters, a very good child. I gave one of the two jobs you asked Hu Biao to give me to my younger brother and one to my nephew. I will ask him to stand at your door for a while so you can recognize him. I will ask him to give the photo to your mother in person. It is not convenient for your father to handle this matter, so your mother should come forward and catch them off guard tomorrow."
"Okay, Sister Meng, thank you so much, thank you so much. With the photos, even if Aunt Yang says something, my family won't believe it."
Shen Meng sighed. Aunt Yang is an outsider, and she can deceive people by pretending to be wronged. It's because Li Qianqian is too strong that she is easily wronged. Her parents are too busy and ignore her.
"Qianqian, I tell you, your mother will come over around noon tomorrow. I want you to stop making noises and don't say anything. Just cry hard. You are usually strong and speak harshly. If you don't say anything this time, others will think that you must have suffered a great injustice and can't even speak."
"No, Sister Meng, you don't know my mother, she cares about face and is easily influenced by others. Maybe she will even be the peacemaker for me and my mother-in-law in the end!"
Shen Meng smiled and said, "This is simple. Before your mother comes, think of ways to anger Mother Yang and touch her heart. Think about it yourself. Also, make the room a little messier tomorrow. It doesn't matter if it's a little dirty. Let your mother see what kind of life you live and hear how others bully you. She is a mother. I don't believe she can be soft-hearted in front of the bloody truth."
It's sad to say that a daughter has to prove her grievances to her parents and has to prepare like this. It's really a bit pathetic.
Li Qianqian nodded and remembered them one by one.
"In this bag are the things I prepared for you and the baby. There are small pure cotton clothes for the baby and a stack of diapers. I boiled them in boiling water and sterilized them. These two bags of adult milk powder are for the mothers. I secretly asked a Chinese doctor to prepare the five-red soup. They are all packed. You can boil a set of it every day and drink it as water in the morning, noon and evening. It is the best to nourish your body. This is a belly band. I will tie it on you. It will be good for your body recovery. There are also two sets of skin care products. It is best to do the confinement for 42 days. It will be good for your bone recovery. Look at me with such surprise." I, how could I understand? It was Doctor Cheng who told me. These four big bags are all baby milk powder, and this is the baby's bottle. I asked someone to buy them from Haishi. You should take good care of yourself, and the baby will be plump and white in the future."
Li Qianqian looked at the things filled with things on her bed, and her heart was about to overflow. Since she gave birth to the child, most people around her were concerned about the child, and they didn't think about her at all. In fact, except Hu Biao, her brother, and her mother, Shen Meng was the only one who thought about her wholeheartedly.
"Be good, don't cry. After today, everything will be good. I promise you."
"Hey, I believe it. I have always believed it. Sister, from now on you are my real sister, my only sister. I will take good care of our brother and nephew. Don't worry, sister."
Shen Meng: "..."
Such familiar words, I seem to have heard them somewhere!!!
