Seeing that the other party had behaved herself, Old Lady Qin put down her hands on her waist and then handed the chicken soup to the two pregnant women.
She has always been a person who blames things rather than people. Although the mother-in-law of the pregnant woman in the middle bed does not look like a good person, the pregnant woman herself has done nothing wrong.
And with a mother-in-law who favors boys over girls, one can imagine what her life is like at home.
The two pregnant women smelled the rich aroma of chicken soup, thanked him repeatedly, and then prepared to taste it.
But just when the pregnant woman in the middle bed opened her mouth to drink, the chicken soup was snatched away by her mother-in-law, who then placed it heavily on the bedside table: "Are you so greedy? How dare you drink what she gave you? Aren't you afraid that she will poison you to death?"
The pregnant woman was suddenly embarrassed. She was happy to drink chicken soup for herself, but she was slandered by her mother-in-law. She hurriedly explained: "Mom, you think too much. They took the initiative to let us taste it. Besides, it's broad daylight, how could they poison us?"
After that, she looked at Old Lady Qin apologetically and said, "Auntie, I'm really sorry. My mother-in-law has a sharp tongue but a soft heart. She doesn't mean any harm."
"Shut up, I said you can't drink, so you can't drink. Why are you so greedy?
I'm going to make it clear to you today, you are going to give birth to a son, and I will prepare whatever you want to eat during the confinement period.
But if you are going to give birth to a daughter, you can't even have a sip of vegetable soup, let alone chicken soup. You can cook whatever you want to eat yourself, and don't expect me to take care of you during the confinement period." The old woman had a cold face, and she was very sarcastic.
The woman blushed and said, "Mom, no matter what, I am also your daughter-in-law, the wife your son married in a formal ceremony. How can you say such a thing?"
"What did I say? I didn't agree with you being with my son in the first place. My son has a bright future in the army, and even if he wants to marry, he should marry the daughter of his leader.
You are just a country girl, you have no education, no appearance, how can you be worthy of my son?"
After hearing this, the woman could only lower her head and cry silently, not daring to refute.
Everyone knew that she married into her husband's family, so at home, she tried her best to do everything well and make her existence valuable.
But no matter what she did, it seemed that her husband's family always looked down on her.
Sometimes, when I tell my husband about the problems with my mother-in-law, he always tells me to be patient and not to get angry with her.
In order not to embarrass her husband, she had to tolerate everything.
I thought that if I had more children in the family, my mother-in-law's attitude towards me would change.
But now it seems that if I give birth to a daughter, I am afraid that life will be even worse than before.
Now, she only hopes that her belly can get some fertility, otherwise life will not be easy for her and her daughter.
Seeing the old woman's arrogant tone, Old Lady Qin couldn't help but ask, "You said your son has a promising future in the army. What is his official position?"
The old woman said proudly: “My son is the deputy battalion commander, and he will be promoted to a regular position soon.
He is only 30 years old and he has become a deputy battalion commander. He will at least be able to become a regiment commander in the future."
"How high a position do I hold? Why do I act so arrogantly? After all this fuss, I find out that I'm just the deputy battalion commander!" said Old Lady Qin leisurely.
The old woman was completely broken by her tone and attitude. She thought she would come over to curry favor with her after hearing her, but she didn't react at all.
I couldn't help but snort coldly: "I think you are just jealous that my son is doing better than your son. I don't want to argue with you."
Old Lady Qin was so angry that she didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "I'm jealous of you. I just don't like to use my son's official position as a capital to show off. But you are so talkative. Be careful that you might betray your son one day."
"Bah, you don't like to use your son as a capital to show off. I think your son doesn't have an official position at all. Don't curse my son here. Even if your son can't make it in the army, my son will never leave the army. He will only get better and better."
Knowing that it was useless to reason with such a person, Old Lady Qin was too lazy to pay any more attention to her. The more you talk to such a person, the more excited she becomes.
Knowing that his son and daughter-in-law are low-key people, they don't like to show off their positions to avoid causing unnecessary trouble.
As a mother, she cannot help her son in his career, but she also cannot hold him back.
Seeing that she refused to give her daughter-in-law the chicken soup, she walked over and took it away.
People like this are likely to blame chicken soup if a pregnant woman has any health problems. By then, even if they have a hundred mouths, they won't be able to explain themselves.
So in order to avoid trouble, she can't give her this chicken soup even if the pregnant woman wants to drink it.
The pregnant woman could only watch the chicken soup being taken away and then eat the food brought by her mother-in-law.
"Sister, she doesn't want to drink this chicken soup, can you give it to me?
As soon as I came in, I smelled the aroma of chicken soup, and I really wanted to try it." The speaker was the mother-in-law of the pregnant woman in the bed inside.
At this moment, he was looking at the chicken soup in Old Lady Qin's hand with golden eyes. There were still a few pieces of chicken in it. He was very greedy.
Although the son of the family also holds a position in the army, there are many brothers and sisters in the family and the expenses are high, so the son's allowance is only enough to supplement the family expenses.
If I want to drink chicken soup or something like that, I can only do so on special holidays, or my son will pack some for me when he returns from the army.
But no matter how much we pack, it can never feed so many mouths at home.
Now that my daughter-in-law is about to give birth, the expenses are even greater. She has to run back and forth between the hospital and home, and her body can no longer bear it.
Seeing that the old woman was not a troublesome person, Old Lady Qin gave her some to drink.
"Thank you, thank you!" The old woman smiled, took it, and then couldn't wait to drink it.
The taste was as delicious as she had imagined: "Sister, how did you make this chicken soup? It's so delicious!" The old woman wiped her mouth with her hand, then started drinking again.
