Chapter 11 Mother-in-law's Habits
"Xiao Jin, go find Zhenxing."
As soon as the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law sat down at the dinner table in the evening, Liu Guizhi couldn't wait to bring it up.
Su Jin was slightly taken aback, clearly surprised.
Liu Guizhi continued, "Now all the educated youth who could leave the village have left. Although you don't remember anything, Mom can't let you suffer in the village for the rest of your life, so go find Zhenxing. After you go there, live a good life with him."
After understanding, Su Jin hesitated and said, "Mom, why would you suddenly think like that? I'm not afraid of suffering."
Liu Guizhi knew her kindness, and felt even more guilty.
“Your father is gone, I can’t be so selfish as to keep you here. Besides, you’re always splitting things up with Zhenxing like this, when will I ever get to hold my grandson?”
Only when her grandson is mentioned can she feel a glimmer of anticipation and joy.
Su Jin frowned. "But if I leave, Mom will be all alone at home. I'm worried about that."
“I have hands and feet, I won’t starve to death in the village. Besides, after you go there, you can help Zhenxing pay off his debts as soon as possible.”
Liu Guizhi is no longer able to earn money, so she can only rely on her son.
The family's debts are kept in a small ledger by the daughter-in-law, and we'll bring them over with us then.
Su Jin fell silent.
Liu Guizhi grasped her hand, her voice becoming much more serious, "Xiaojin, Mom knows you've suffered all these years. Zhenxing doesn't dislike you, he's just a slow-paced person. Once you go there, you two can spend more time together, and he won't have those messy thoughts anymore."
"Mom, you knew everything?"
Su Jin's face was tense, and although she was asking a question, her tone was firm.
She did indeed see the telegram.
Although she was illiterate, it was easy for her to understand what was written on it.
Liu Guizhi didn't really want to say it, but she was really worried. "You are our Zhou family's lawfully wedded wife, and you always will be! When that scoundrel Zhenxing comes back, Mom will scold him for you!"
"Mom, even if Zhenxing and I really don't end up together..."
"How could you not be together? Mom will absolutely not allow you to get a divorce!" Liu Guizhi interrupted her excitedly. Divorce was something that would never happen in the Zhou family.
"Xiaojin, Mom treats you like her own daughter. You only have Mom and Zhenxing as your family. As the saying goes, it's easy for a woman to pursue a man. As long as you treat Zhenxing well, he won't get a divorce."
She knows her own son well; he's not only filial but also soft-hearted. He wouldn't dare do anything if she disagreed.
So the key is to soothe the daughter-in-law's emotions and encourage her to take the initiative.
Su Jin understood what she meant, and nodded in response to her anxious gaze. "I'll do my best."
Liu Guizhi finally felt relieved.
Actually, she felt that her worries were somewhat unnecessary. This girl had already lost her memory. If she left the Zhou family, she would be all alone and would have nowhere to go.
As night deepened, Su Jin returned to her room after washing up. Her gaze lingered on the neatly folded bedding, and a slight smile appeared on her lips.
Her mother-in-law had a habit of helping her "tidy up" when she went to work.
Even if her room is spotless and there's nothing that needs tidying up, her mother-in-law will still rummage through it inside and out, including under the bedding.
The telegram was placed in a spot where her mother-in-law would definitely find it...
