Unlike Xu Meiling's plump figure, she looked a little out of shape, even thinner than when she first got married. She wore a loose skirt and showed no signs of pregnancy at all.

When the wind blew, her skirt was pulled tighter, and only then could you vaguely see her bulging belly, like a pot, upside down on her belly.

Yan Lijun was forced by the factory leader to take a leave to take care of her baby this time, and her condition was really bad.

Leaders these days are not like leaders in later times who wish you would die.

Yan Lijun was in such a bad condition that her leader could not bear to let her continue to work on the day of delivery, so he approved her leave in advance and let her go home to recuperate, so that she would not have any problems during the delivery.

These days, having a pregnant woman in the family is like having a sword hanging over your head. If you are not careful, you will have to prepare for a funeral.

The maternal and neonatal mortality rates in rural areas are quite high, and such incidents occur every year. Some time ago, Gu Qinghuan heard that a new bride in the village gave birth to a stillborn baby, but fortunately the baby was fine.

"Why have you become so thin?" Gu Qinghuan greeted.

Yan Lijun looked a little depressed, and said softly, "I have no appetite in the summer and can't eat, so I lose weight."

Lin Xiaomeng winked at Gu Qinghuan, signaling her not to ask.

Gu Qinghuan didn't ask any more questions.

While cooking, Lin Xiaomeng quietly told Gu Qinghuan that Yan Lijun didn't want Xu Huai to go to college at this critical moment, and the couple had been arguing for two months.

From Yan Lijun's perspective, she was about to give birth and needed care. In order to marry Xu Huai, she had a quarrel with her natal family. Her in-laws treated her the same way, so she counted on Xu Huai.

But at this critical moment, if he wants to go to school, wouldn't that mean he is leaving her alone to his parents-in-law?

Not to mention the inconveniences in many things, let’s just talk about the problem of taking care of children.

She has to go to work after the confinement period. Who will take care of the baby? How to take care of the baby? These are all problems.

But Xu Huai abandoned them and their son and ran away at this time. Isn't this irresponsible?

Moreover, Yan Lijun had a little thought in her mind. She knew that Xu Huai had always wanted to marry someone rich. What if he no longer liked her after he finished his studies, or if he just found another one outside, what would happen to her and the child?

So she was a hundred percent unwilling to let Xu Huai go to school.

The couple was deadlocked over this matter, and Xu Huai spent her money on buying himself new clothes, new shoes, and a new suitcase.

If he is like this before entering college, what will he be like after entering college?

Isn't Yan Lijun depressed?

I feel bad all day, can't eat or sleep, and have no energy.

Xu Meiling is in confinement after giving birth.

She and Chen Jianghe brought their children over for dinner on a rare occasion.

The child was held in Chen Jianghe's arms. She was chubby and cute. Her nickname was Miaomiao and her full name was Chen Ya, named by Chen Jianghe.

Xu Meiling still looks very fat and has not lost any weight at all.

Chen Jianghe seemed to have lost some weight, probably because he was tired from taking care of the mother and the newborn.

Although Liu Guifang said she wanted to help, she only cared about her own daughter and never cared about her children.

Chen Jianghe could only do it by himself. The nanny did a good job. The baby was no longer as blue as when he was first brought home, but had become fair and tender.

The whole family looked around curiously at the newborn.

Yan Lijun was going to be a mother soon, so she naturally liked children. She moved closer to tease Xiao Miaomiao.

Xu Huai said in a gloomy tone: "Look at the child born in your family, he is chubby. Then look at your child, what is that? I suspect that you have raised my son and he is still not as big as a chicken."

Yes, he really despises Yan Lijun now.

If he had known that he would have the opportunity to go to college, why did he get married so early? He might as well find a wife from the provincial capital. Isn't she better than Yan Lijun?

In front of everyone, she said that it was indeed a bit too much, and Yan Lijun burst into tears instantly.

Is this what she wants?

Xu Huaizhi couldn't bear to watch it anymore.

"Old Third, what are you talking about? Are you really that bad? Your wife is already having a hard time carrying a child, and you're still talking about this."

Gu Qinghuan looked away in disgust. She was afraid that she would want to beat him to death. What a gigolo. He was eating gigolo and yet he was still complaining about it.

Like Lin Xiaomeng, she glared at Xu Huai and spat hard.

Xu Mingshan and Liu Guifang were watching the excitement from the side. They were always like this, keeping out of the matter when it had nothing to do with them. Only when Xu Huai couldn't get over the argument would Liu Guifang stand up and help.

Xu Huai didn't feel that he was wrong at all.

"What did I say was wrong? She just keeps looking for trouble all day long."

Yan Lijun cried and complained: "Xu Huai, are you ashamed to say this? You use my salary to buy this and that, and dress yourself up like a peacock. I only dare to eat vegetables and black flour buns for meals every day, how can I gain weight?

I wanted to take some food from home, but my mother disagreed and said I was a spendthrift. What do you want me to do? I might as well just run into a wall and kill myself.

They had been harboring resentment for a long time, and Yan Lijun finally exploded.

It was because there were so many people around that she dared to do this. Usually she was alone and she would not dare to challenge the mother and son.

No one had expected this to happen and they were all shocked.

Xu Huai is really a genius. He is clearly playing tricks on this freeloader.

"Third brother, did you get the money from the division of the family property? You shouldn't have used it all, right? Why are you spending the money earned from your wife?" What a shame! Xu Huaizhi hated this younger brother very much.

"What do you mean she makes money? Aren't we from the same family? This woman has no idea how to spend money. I have to keep the money, otherwise she will ruin the family sooner or later."

Xu Huai pretended that he was doing it for the sake of his family's well-being, and was in the same boat with his shameless mother.

Everything was disgusting to him.

Including holding the child and watching the lively Chen Jianghe, he covered his daughter's ears, not wanting her to hear such shameless words.

Xu Meiling herself is a mother now, and she really cannot agree with her brother's statement. It is impossible to have the horse run and not eat grass at the same time.

Liu Guifang came over and agreed, "Old Third's family, your husband is right. You are going to raise a child soon, so you have to be careful.

During the years of natural disasters, we ate Guanyin soil, tree bark and grass roots. We ate them even when we were pregnant. You are lucky to have something to eat now, so don’t be picky.”

Yan Lijun originally just wanted to take this opportunity to speak out about the matter so as to fight for some rights for herself and her child, but she didn't expect that the mother and son would be so shameless. She really couldn't stand it.

"Raising a child, what to use to raise it? Who will raise it?

Xu Huai, why don't you just leave? The family depends on me to support it. I have to work and take care of the children alone. There is no money or food. Are we going to starve?

Is the child mine? As the old saying goes, marrying a man provides clothes and food, and I am really unlucky to marry you.

How old are you? You're still like a baby who's still breastfeeding. You sit paralyzed at home all day and don't go out to earn money. You even have to ask your mother to bring your meals to your bed. Why don't you let her chew them up and feed them to you?

I finally understand that none of you care about the life and death of me and my child. I really don't know what's the point of having a man like you. It's better for me to live on my own, it won't be so terrible.

Let's get a divorce! You can do whatever you want, I can raise the child by myself." Yan Lijun was very angry at this moment, and she was a little bit angry.

If Xu Huai's existence has no effect and meaning, and will lower her quality of life, she feels that she does not necessarily need a man.

She had lived a very good life in Old Xu's house for the past six months.

These words shocked everyone.

Gu Qinghuan didn't expect that Yan Lijun was still a little green when she first came to the Xu family. Now she has been tortured by life and is so tough. I don't know what she feels.

Lin Xiaomeng looked at Yan Lijun now as if she was looking at herself back then, and for a moment she felt mixed emotions. Fortunately, she withdrew in time, and Xu Huaizhi now knew how to protect them.

"You bitch! I'll let you talk nonsense."

Xu Huai was pointed at and scolded by her, and he had torn off the clothes that had been covering his body. He became angry and rushed over quickly and slapped her.

In a flash, Yan Lijun was slapped to the ground.

Maybe it was because the force was too great, or maybe Yan Lijun herself was already emotionally unstable, she suddenly covered her stomach and felt unbearable pain.

Lin Xiaomeng seemed to see himself again, and his legs were shaking.

"She...she's wearing her skirt."

There were scarlet spots on Yan Lijun's skirt; she had bleeding.

Everyone panicked.

Xu Huaizhi hurried to find a cart, and Lin Xiaomeng went home and got an old quilt to put on the cart.

Gu Qinghuan went into the house and poured a glass of water for Yan Lijun, forcing her to drink it.

This cup of water was specially scooped from the spiritual spring water in space, hoping that this cup of water would protect her and her child's lives.

Even Xu Meiling knew to rush into the house to find a flashlight and hand it to them.

It was getting dark soon, and we couldn't walk at night without a flashlight.

But the few people who should have taken action just stood there as if they hadn't seen anything.

Xu Huai just had an argument with her and was scolded so harshly by her, and he was angry.

You are awesome, go to the hospital yourself.

There is not a trace of shame at all.

Liu Guifang was unmoved by her mother-in-law's tricks, saying, "What are you doing? Isn't there a midwife in the village? It's getting dark soon, and it will be troublesome to send her to the hospital."

No one paid any attention to her.

Xu Mingshan acted as a hindsighter and pretended to scold Xu Huai, but by then there was no time to watch his performance.

Xu Huaizhi prepared the cart, glanced at Xu Huai, and shouted, "Why don't you hurry up and bring your wife up? Do you expect me to do it?"

Yan Lijun covered her stomach and took in all the reactions.

At this moment, she just felt that this family was rotten and disgusting.

A friend in need is a friend indeed. Even her eldest brother and two sisters-in-law knew to help send her to the hospital. But the bastard who had harmed her did not react at all.

If she can survive this test, no one will be able to control her in the future.

Xu Huai reluctantly went forward to carry Yan Lijun onto the cart, then stood aside as if it had nothing to do with him.

Lin Xiaomeng shouted at him unceremoniously: "Bring your family's money with you. Don't expect us to pay for your wife's childbirth.

You pull the car! My husband is not your permanent employee. If anything happens to your wife, it’s your own fault. Don’t blame us.”

Xu Huaizhi agreed with his wife's opinion. Seeing that Xu Huai was unmoved, he picked up a stick of firewood from the ground and was about to hit him.

This damn thing, why didn't it kill him at the beginning?

The saying "eldest brother is like a father" is not a joke sometimes. When Xu Huai was a child, he was always treated like this by Xu Huaizhi. He was scared out of his wits, so he reluctantly went into the house to get the money, then pushed the cart and started walking towards the commune.
