When Qiao Ru heard that Qiao Shanshan had miscarried, she decided to come and see her after thinking it over. Lu Jinwen found it amusing to see her buying black-boned chicken and ginseng.
"Who said they would never associate with her again? They even said Qiao Shanshan was too vicious and that it was best to stay away from her!"
Qiao Ru snorted. Her child was still young, and she had been staying home to take care of the child lately. Fortunately, Lu Jinwen would help out, and the couple were living a pretty good life.
Do you think Qiao Ru hates Qiao Shanshan?
How could she not hate her! Her own sister pretended not to hear her when she needed help and was about to give birth. Qiao Ru felt uncomfortable and barely paid any attention to Qiao Shanshan after the baby was born.
With everyone moving into apartment buildings, and Qiao Ru's apartment not being in the same building as Qiao Shanshan's, they had even fewer opportunities to meet. Qiao Ru originally thought that they could just live like this, neither too close nor too distant, as long as Qiao Shanshan didn't cause any trouble.
Who knew that Qiao Shanshan would suffer a miscarriage because of her mother-in-law!
Qiao Ru was a little angry. No matter how bad she was with Qiao Shanshan, she was still her sister. Isn't that how blood ties are? You can hate your relatives to the core, but then you can shake hands and make peace with them. After all, blood ties can't be severed.
"Wei Mingyuan's mother is utterly despicable! How could she give a pregnant woman cow urine to drink! I never imagined Wei Mingyuan was this kind of person. He looks respectable, but who knew he would treat his wife so badly behind her back!" Qiao Ru became increasingly angry as she spoke, and then looked at Lu Jinwen seriously and said, "He's far worse than you!"
Lu Jinwen was delighted to be praised by his wife. Qiao Ru often praised him, not only at home but also in public. Now, his superiors all know that he is good to his wife and helps take care of the children, and they all have a good impression of him.
On the other hand, after this incident, the team leaders had a lot of complaints about Wei Mingyuan. They felt that Wei Mingyuan had disrupted the harmony of our compound and that he did not act like a man!
A real man shouldn't let his wife suffer! He shouldn't let his family life turn out like this!
This was the first time such a thing had happened in the compound. The leader was angry whenever he thought of Wei Mingyuan, saying that he shouldn't have done that.
Lu Jinwen took the child from Qiao Ru's arms and sighed:
“If you want to see your sister, then go ahead! Although I don’t like Qiao Ru, you are sisters. After what happened to your sister, you won’t feel at ease if you don’t go and see her.”
Qiao Ru sighed, "I do blame her and get angry with her! But when I think about how pitiful she is, losing her first child and not knowing if she will be able to have children in the future, I still feel bad."
"I know, go ahead! I'll watch the kids, and after they're asleep, I'll do the laundry and all the housework. I guarantee you'll find the house spotless when you come back!"
Qiao Ru kissed Lu Jinwen on the cheek, feeling genuinely happy. No wonder she thought Qiao Shanshan was silly; no matter how good someone else's man is, he's still someone else's man! He's not hers! It's much better to train your own less-than-ideal husband into the ideal husband than to stare at someone else.
Qiao Ru brought over chicken soup, which surprised Qiao Shanshan. The two sisters had been getting along rather awkwardly ever since what happened last time.
"You're here?" Qiao Shanshan called out.
Feeling somewhat ashamed in front of Qiao Shanshan's family, Wei Mingyuan simply left, leaving the house to the two sisters so they could have a proper conversation.
Qiao Ru sat by Qiao Shanshan's bed. It would be a lie for the two sisters not to feel awkward, but sometimes, you just have to look forward.
"What exactly happened to Wei Mingyuan that made you like this?"
Qiao Shanshan smiled awkwardly, "It's all in the past. He apologized to me, and I've decided to forgive him. He handed over his paycheck to me, and we plan to live a good life together."
Qiao Ru's eyes widened, thinking to herself, "Isn't handing over your paycheck a man's responsibility?"
She believed that men should take care of their families and children, and she didn't see anything wrong with that.
Qiao Shanshan looked at her expression and knew what she was thinking. In her past life, she also thought that this was what men should do, and that all men in the world were like Lu Jinwen. But the fact is that Lu Jinwen could live a good life even without her by his side, but she made a mess of her life after leaving him.
In this world, what is there to say about "should" or "shouldn't"?
When you have something, you should learn to be grateful.
Don't be too attached to what you lose.
How much money you earn, how much good fortune you have, and how much suffering you endure in life are all predetermined. Qiao Shanshan has lived two lives; if she still doesn't understand this, she has truly lived in vain!
"Perhaps you think handing over your paycheck, being good to your wife, and being good to your family are all things you should do, but this is what I got by sacrificing a child. Qiao Ru, life isn't easy, but thankfully I've decided to let go of my resentment and live a good life. Just wish me well!"
Qiao Shanshan seems to have really changed. She no longer wears a fake smile, and she has become more open-minded and cheerful.
Qiao Ru noticed her sister's change and thought that it was truly rare for Qiao Shanshan to have such insights after this incident.
She smiled and said, "Okay! Sister, then I wish you all the best!"
Qiao Shanshan seems to have really changed. She no longer gets upset all day because her house is near the toilet, and she no longer dwells on the past, feeling that she is inferior to others in every way and that other people's men are better than hers. She has started to pay attention to herself. When she saw an English training class in the newspaper, she even signed up for it, hoping to learn more.
When Wei Mingyuan heard that she wanted to attend a training course, he was stunned. "What's the use of you attending this? No... it's not that I don't want to give you money, and that's not what I meant. I just feel that we're not getting any younger, and learning English won't be of much use."
Qiao Shanshan nodded. She didn't know why she was studying; she just wanted to be different from before.
