Chapter 65 Love at First Sight
Lin Xia quickly packed up a bunch of things, "We usually eat in the cafeteria at noon. Your brother-in-law won't be back at noon, so let's go directly to the hospital."
Qian Lisheng was busy in the workshop, and his new apprentice ran over, "Master, Master, the master's wife went home with a beautiful woman who is prettier than the master's wife. Who is that?"
Qian Lisheng was stunned. The sister-in-law came?
He had almost finished the work at hand, so he handed it over to the eldest apprentice and went home to take a look.
He just got home and saw Lin Xia carrying a yellow enamel dish basin and a bag on her back. Next to her was his beautiful but overly petty sister-in-law.
He smiled and said, "Third sister is here? Wife, where are you going?"
Lin Xia: "My mother is in the hospital, I have to go see her, you can have lunch in the cafeteria."
Qian Lisheng immediately said, "My mother is sick? Then I will go with you, I haven't seen her since the New Year."
If he was busy, it would be fine, but if he was not busy, he would naturally go to see his mother-in-law, so Lin Xia agreed.
Qian Lisheng rode a bicycle and wanted to take Lin Xia with him, but she wanted to take a rickshaw with her sister.
Several people arrived at the city hospital together, just in time for lunch.
They greeted Fang Dihua and Lin's mother and then prepared to eat.
Lin Xia brought steamed buns, cakes, and a pot of potato stew.
She couldn't help but complain to Qian Lisheng in a low voice, "With you, there's not enough to eat."
Qian Lisheng whispered, "It's okay, you and mom eat first, I'll go back to the cafeteria, don't be hungry and don't want to eat, I feel bad."
Lin Xia smiled and said, "You won't be hungry, just go to the hospital and buy some steamed buns and some dishes."
Lin Shu had already taken out the money and food coupons to go get food.
Qian Lisheng immediately said, "Third sister, take a rest. You and mother are here, how can I let you go? I'll go."
Lin Xia was concerned about Lin's mother's condition first. Knowing that it was not a big deal and she was just scared, she started to confront her, "Look at you, you just scold your own daughter for being powerful, why don't you dare to be powerful to Sun Xiaohong? If you continue like this, no matter who threw it away, just blame her and go to her house to lie down."
Lin's mother scolded, "I'm not as thick-skinned as you. I didn't catch them, and I went to their house. How embarrassing it would be for me."
Lin Xia: "If you weren't afraid of embarrassment, you wouldn't be frightened sick. You have to learn to be thick-skinned and not afraid of embarrassment. How about this, you go to the hospital every day to stroll around and tell people what a bunch of bastards the Sun family is."
Lin's mother wanted to chase her away.
The third daughter is no longer irritating, but the second daughter is even more irritating.
She said, "You are very busy at work, don't waste time for me, I am fine now, I am free of all illnesses."
Lin Xia: "I am off work today, nothing to do."
She went over to check on Fang Dihua.
This is my younger sister's mother-in-law, so she must be treated well.
Fang Dihua: "The doctor said that if you delay, you will go blind, but if you do it now, it will be fine."
Lin Xia nodded, "Auntie, if you are sick, you must treat it in time, you can't delay."
Lin's mother was worried about Lin Xia's pregnancy again. The third daughter is several years younger than her and already has two children, but the second daughter is still not pregnant.
"Did your mother-in-law urge you?" "Does
your son-in-law have any ideas?"
"Have you seen the doctor? What did the doctor say? Have you taken the medicine?"
"Is there any movement?"
...
Lin Xia was impatient: "Mom, you ask so many questions, which one should I answer? Everything is fine, don't worry, don't worry."
Lin Shu said at the right time: "Mom, what you said is not right. Why do you only let my sister see a doctor when your husband and wife have no children? Then my brother-in-law should also see a doctor."
Lin's mother: "Giving birth is not a woman's business, is it also a man's business? What do men see?"
Lin Shu: "Mom, aren't you making an argument? Giving birth is only a woman's business, then what's the point of getting married? Can't women stay at home and give birth to them themselves? Then it must be related to men, and it is quite related."
Fang Dihua: "My daughter-in-law is right." Qian Lisheng
came back from getting food at that time. When he heard him outside the door, he stopped and slowly backed away. He waited until no one in the house was talking about this before he strode back.
"You must be hungry, come eat quickly, the food in the hospital is pretty good, I made some scrambled eggs."
While eating, Lin Xia said, "Mom, I'll go tell Dad and the others to come over."
Of course, that includes Mrs. Lu.
Qian Lisheng immediately said, "I'll go over on my bike and tell them later."
Mother Lin said hurriedly, "If they're busy with their studies, don't come over. I'm fine anyway. We'll go over after I get the injection and then we'll go back."
Lin Xia said, "What do you know, old lady? Just stay in the hospital."
She and Lin Shu went to the office to find Doctor Shen and asked about Mother Lin's condition. They were relieved when they confirmed that there was no major problem.
Doctor Shen said that Mother Lin had an old illness, had always been weak, and lacked nutrition. She would get better if she rested more and supplemented her nutrition.
After returning home, Lin Xia said to Lin's mother, "I'll buy you two bottles of malt milk. Go back and drink it. Don't just give it to Bao'er."
Bao'er was holding a large teacup and drinking water. He immediately brought it to Lin's mother and said, "Drink milk, drink it."
Seeing that Bao'er was so sensible, Lin Xia immediately cherished him and hugged him in her arms. She said to Lin's mother, "Why don't you give Bao'er to me? Lin Yue will definitely get married again during the Chinese New Year. When he has a few more children, you won't need this one."
She turned around and smiled at Qian Lisheng, "What do you think? Bao'er is so cute. We may not be able to give birth to such a good one."
Lin's mother said, "What are you talking about? You, both of you, go see a doctor and give birth to your own children as soon as possible."
In the end, she didn't say anything else and just let the maid check.
Qian Lisheng agreed repeatedly.
Lin Shu: "You guys have time today, why don't you go to the obstetrics and gynecology department?"
Qian Lisheng said: "This... this is so rushed, we haven't prepared anything."
Lin Xia also secretly rebuked Lin Shu and whispered: "I'm busy in the workshop and I'm sweating. I haven't taken a shower yet."
Lin Xia had seen both Chinese and Western doctors in her early years, but they could
n't figure out what was wrong. Chinese doctors said she had a cold uterus or that she had blood and qi deficiency, but she felt that she was energetic and not deficient at all. Western doctors couldn't find anything either.
Lin Shu said, "Sister, I asked the nurse. The city hospital has a new imaging machine this year, called a B-ultrasound machine, which can take pictures of everything inside the body."
Lin Xia: "Just like taking pictures of bones?"
Nowadays, hospitals will take X-rays to confirm whether there are any fractures or cracks. They can take pictures of bones, but they can't take pictures of why she can't get pregnant.
Lin Shu: "Yes, it mainly takes pictures of the internal organs of the body, such as the heart, liver, spleen, lungs, breasts, uterus, etc."
Everyone knows the heart, liver, spleen, and lungs, but Lin's mother doesn't understand breasts and uterus. She had never heard of this term in the countryside before.
Qian Lisheng was interested. "Wife, why don't we go take a photo? I want to take one too."
Lin Xia was a little tempted. They were both workers and had factory medical insurance, so even if the photos were expensive, they could be reimbursed.
Lin Shu quietly pulled her clothes and signaled her to come immediately tomorrow.
Lin Xia couldn't persuade her, "Okay, we'll take a leave tomorrow and come over to take a look."
Lin Shu was afraid that Qian's mother would give her sister random folk remedies, so she deliberately said to Qian Lisheng, "Brother-in-law, this is not a medicine prescribed by a regular hospital, so don't give it to my sister. My father-in-law heard in the hospital that many people have problems with random folk remedies. There was a woman who had not given birth for a long time, so her mother-in-law gave her random medicine. Later, her belly got big and she thought she was pregnant. As a result, she was pregnant for a year and still didn't give birth, and her stomach almost exploded. She went to the hospital for a check-up, and it turned out that she was not pregnant at all. It was just that she took random folk remedies and developed a tumor, and her stomach was full of pus."
This time, not only Qian Lisheng, but also Lin's mother was scared and her face changed drastically. She grabbed Lin Xia's hand and told her not to take random food.
Fang Dihua quickly turned her head to drink water to prevent herself from laughing. This daughter-in-law was so cunning in class that it was hard to count.
Seeing Qian Lisheng's face change with fear, Lin Shu knew that her threats were effective.
Since her brother-in-law's attitude was quite good, he should really want to solve the problem.
She integrated the original owner's memory and the plot of the original book, plus Tong Ailian's gossip, and felt that Qian's mother had been very opinionated recently and was a bit of a demon.
The second sister's marriage was arranged by Grandma Lin. Marrying from the countryside to the city rolling steel factory seemed to be a high-class marriage for the Lin family to outsiders.
The second sister didn't have a job at first, but she was not idle. She made money by doing odd jobs such as slurry washing and helping with chores.
A year later, her mother-in-law broke her leg and had to take a long vacation, so she simply retired and transferred the job to her.
Lin Xia entered the steel rolling mill. At first, she had no skills and could only do odd jobs. Later, she went to work in the kitchen.
There was a disabled master in the kitchen. His cooking skills were average and he had a bad temper. Most people couldn't get along with him.
But Lin Xia didn't care. She complained that his cooking was not delicious, so she cooked by herself. The master was so angry that he said she wanted to usurp power. Lin
Xia sympathized with him because he was disabled and helped him a lot. Later, the master suddenly threw her two notebooks and asked her to learn by herself .
Lin Xia then realized that he was a very experienced electrician.
Since the master was willing to teach, she naturally did not refuse and became his apprentice.
She had a basic education from elementary school, and she studied the basic knowledge of electricians with her master and became an electrician in one year.
After passing the electrician qualification exam, she became a first-class electrician in the steel mill. Now she is already a second-class worker, but she still wants to rely on the third-class worker. Many men of her age are only first-class workers.
Now the couple earns a lot of money. Lin Xia earns more than her mother-in-law did before. In addition to honoring her father, she also shares part of her mother-in-law's salary, so her mother-in-law is not dissatisfied. Instead, she thinks that this job is worth planning. The second
sister and her brother-in-law have been married for six years and have a good relationship. The only regret is that they have no children.
It seems that the second brother-in-law is okay so far, but Qian's mother is probably anxious and finds folk remedies for the second sister.
The second sister is not someone who can be pushed around. The medicine she got from the doctor is useless. The folk remedies made by the mother-in-law are useful?
She will definitely not take them.
There will inevitably be friction between the mother-in-law and the daughter-in-law.
When Qian's mother couldn't control her, she would nag her son. At first, the brother-in-law might also protect his wife, but over time, the couple had no children. He always listened to Qian's mother nagging about "There are three unfilial acts, and the worst is to die without a child", "I gave her the job, how could she not listen to me?" and other such things. He would definitely think that Lin Xia was ignorant and wanted a child, or he would ask Lin Xia to cooperate with folk remedies for the sake of peace of mind.
Lin Xia also has a temper, and the couple will definitely have conflicts at that time.
Generally speaking, if a couple has no children, if it is the woman's fault, they will most likely get divorced in the end. If it is the man's fault, they will either be DINKs or adopt a child in the end.
Although the original plot did not mention whether the second brother-in-law was sick, it clearly stated that Lin Xia was forced by her mother-in-law to drink various soups and try various folk remedies.
At first she refused, and her husband also felt sorry for her and didn't let her try. Later, after a while, Qian's mother could torture him again, so he just let it go.
Lin Shu suspected that her second sister's breast cancer was caused by Qian's mother's messy folk remedies.
Tomorrow, let her second sister check her breasts and everything. If there is no breast problem, Qian's mother will have to bear the blame.
Lin Xia had nothing to do in the afternoon, so she asked Qian Lisheng to ride his bike to the tractor factory to deliver a message to Lin's father and others.
Qian Lisheng pulled Lin Xia out, and after leaving the ward, he whispered: "Wife, did our mother give you a hard time? For my sake, don't bother with the old lady. Let's check it out tomorrow. If it's my problem, you go back and slap the test results in front of her and say loudly that it's her son who has the problem. Wife, don't be angry with me because of my mother."
Lin Xia laughed and said angrily: "What are you talking about?"
Qian Lisheng said a few more nonsense, then rode away.
He loved his wife very much, and liked Lin Xia the first time he saw her.
At that time, Qian's mother was introducing him to a partner and asked him to look around with Dong Ailing, but he was not happy.
It happened that Grandma Lin brought her second granddaughter to the house to look for a partner. Lin Xia was tall and dignified, and he fell in love with her at first sight.
When they got married, he was looking forward to her giving him a group of lovely children, but after one or two years, she still didn't give birth to any children.
Alas.
Qian Lisheng felt that God was really unfair. He gave him such a good wife, why didn't he give him any children?
He was not greedy, and he didn't have to have a son. He would be happy with a concubine.
You said that Tong Ailian, who was not very good-looking, had given birth to two children, and Lin Xia was so beautiful, so healthy, and so energetic, why couldn't she give birth to a child?
Is it true that women can’t be electricians, as my mother said?
That’s not right. Lin Xia didn’t work as an electrician two years ago.
And he was 100% sure that this was the first time for Lin Xia and him, and there were no other problems.
To be honest, they had been married for six years without having a child, and my mother was getting more and more irritable every day. She urged them to have a baby, and even pushed them step by step, and he couldn’t bear it.
He thought some of the folk remedies my mother used were unreliable, such as swallowing raw horse snake seeds, eating dog sperm, drinking pregnant women’s and boys’ urine, which were all nonsense.
But my mother made it sound serious, saying that in such and such a county, such and such a village, a wife didn’t have a child for ten years, but after drinking a folk remedy, she got pregnant in ten days and later gave birth to a big fat boy. There was also another family that didn’t have a child for twenty years, but at the age of forty-five, she gave birth to a pair of twins with the help of a folk remedy.
At first, he thought it was a fabrication and unbelievable. He also felt sorry for his wife and would never let her try those things. But as his mother talked more, he began to think.
However, he still had reason and did not let his mother bring those messy things to Lin Xia. At most, he would take the blood-activating and blood-stasis-removing medicine prescribed by the doctor. After
being frightened by Lin Shu today, he felt fortunate that he did not let his wife eat those messy things. They sounded unreliable and she could not eat them in the future.
He felt that it was definitely not his problem. He was in good health.
How could it be his problem?
However, his mother-in-law, sister-in-law, and sister-in-law's mother-in-law forced him to check together, as if he was very likely to be infertile. He felt a little...uncomfortable in his heart, but he did not refuse to make Lin Xia happy.
Just check it out, and when everything is fine, they will have nothing to say.
He arrived at the tractor factory and went to the gate to say hello, but a few men in their forties and fifties were gossiping there, "You are so big, and you are the workshop director, but you can't even make your wife give birth to a baby. You are worse than me. I have three sons and two daughters." "That's right
. You don't even have a child. What's the point of making all that money? I don't know who will benefit from it in the end."
Qian Lisheng was immediately furious. Although they were not talking about him, he took it personally.
He greeted them and went in to find someone. Because he was unhappy, he didn't say much when he found Lin's father and went back first on the pretext of being busy with work.
When Lin's father heard that his wife was hospitalized for heart disease, he suddenly became upset and went to see her immediately.
When Mrs. Lu heard that her mother-in-law had also had eye surgery, she naturally wanted to go too. She also had to care about how her husband was doing at home.
Father Lin: "Lin Yue, you stay here and listen to the class, and teach us later."
Lin Yue was speechless: "Dad, my mother and son are in the hospital, and you want me to go to class by myself?"
Mrs. Lu: "Let's go together."
Xu Guangmao went with them. He smiled and said, "Sister-in-law, just go. I will listen carefully and teach you later."
During the training period, trainees can ask for leave if they have something to do. As long as they don't miss classes on purpose and don't come for a long time, there is basically no problem.
The three of them couldn't wait and immediately went back to change into dry clothes. They originally wanted to take the bus, but Mrs. Lu's outstanding performance was highly valued by the master, so she shamelessly went to the master to borrow a tractor.
The master really lent it to them.
So Mrs. Lu drove the tractor and took the two of them to the city hospital in a hurry. On the way, they turned their heads 100%.
When the family met at the hospital, they had to explain again.
Lin Yue blamed himself even more, saying that it was all his fault that his mother suffered.
Mother Lin: "Okay, okay, I know it's my fault. I'm timid and I'm neurasthenic. I will be stronger in the future."
She has also learned new words with the doctor in the past two days.
She showed them that she was really fine and was fine. Only then
did the grandfather and his wife feel relieved.
Fang Dihua was even finer, and Mrs. Lu had nothing to worry about. She asked if everyone in the family was fine, and mainly asked if Brother Lu was doing well alone. Fang
Dihua was too lazy to tell her about Brother Lu's glorious deeds, so she just said that everything was fine.
Mrs. Lu held Baoer and spun around in her arms, "This child is so well-behaved, even more quiet than Panpan and Tiantian when they were little."
Fang Dihua did not express envy, she felt that it was not good for a child to be too honest, her own Tiantian and Panpan were the best, they were well-behaved and sensible but not too honest.
She felt that Baoer was timid and shy, probably from the same family as his grandfather.
After talking for a while, Fang Dihua and Lin's mother urged them to go back and study hard.
Lin Shu sent them out.
Lin Yue: "Sister, why is the Sun family like this? Why are they so bad, I really can't understand."
He knew that Sun Xiaohong was willful and capricious, but he didn't expect her to be so bad.
She actually took advantage of their absence to harm his mother.
Why do they think it is a sin to even think about making the other party suffer a bad fate? How come the other party can do bad things to them so easily?
Lin Shu: "This person is bad in her bones. If you hadn't divorced, you would have thought about how she would have harmed you in the rest of your life."
Lin Yue was scared for a while. It was really a good thing that he got divorced.
Sister-in-law Lu didn't think so: "She is bad because you are too honest? Let's go back and fight them! Let them know how powerful we are."
Lin Shu: "Sister-in-law, you are here to learn how to repair cars, not to learn how to worship Liangshan."
Why did you suddenly become so violent?
Sister-in-law used to agree with my brother that peace is the most important thing. Force cannot solve problems. It is better not to fight with others casually.
Just when the mother-in-law beat Song Chunfang, she told the family at night, "If anyone dares to gossip in the future, no matter who hears it, just beat him back. I will take care of it if there is any trouble." Brother Lu also said this, and sister-in-law Lu also agreed.
How come he started to rebel after just a few days away from his brother?
It seems that the best way to break the brainwashing is to stay away from the source of brainwashing. She is looking forward to the scene of sister-in-law going back to control Brother Lu.
Lin Shu watched her sister-in-law and the other two drive away in the tractor.
At this time, an old woman came over with a small basket and asked in a low voice: "Do you want dry fried peanuts?"
Lin Shu looked around and saw no one from the market management office. "Auntie, how do you sell it?"
The old woman gestured and said a big tea bowl, one bowl for one cent.
Lin Shu thought it was a good deal, so she decided to buy two bowls, as peanuts are rich in nutrients.
She bought two bowls, put them in her pocket and threw one into her mouth. "Crunch", there was a crisp sound.
"Um... Um..." Suddenly, a little boy on the side of the road picked his throat and stomped his feet, his face instantly red.
This is a foreign object entering the trachea!
The young man next to him was so anxious that he asked the child to open his mouth so that he could help pick it out. If he couldn't pick it out, he wanted to take the child to the hospital.
Lin Shu had received first aid training in her previous life, so she immediately ran over and pushed the young man away: "Don't pick him!"
She picked up the child, and as soon as she exerted force, the child immediately bit out a round peanut.
The little boy recovered his breath, not afraid at all, but looked at Lin Shu with curiosity, "Auntie, how did you do it?"
The young man saw that his nephew was fine, and looked at Lin Shu with more eager eyes, "Comrade, you are so awesome! Are you a nurse in the hospital?"
Lin Shu: "No, I am here to see a doctor with my family." She
moved too much just now, and some of her peanuts spilled from her pocket, so she squatted down to pick up the peanuts.
The young man and his nephew squatted down to help her pick them up.
The young man saw that there was dirt on it, "I'll buy you another one."
Lin Shu: "The peanuts are fried very dry, just pick them up quickly and it will be fine."
After getting here, she cherished every grain of food.
The young man glanced at her quickly, and seeing her so closely made him a little dizzy, she looked too... beautiful.
How can someone be both bright and charming? That kind of beauty was like a sharp sword piercing his heart, making his heart beat faster than when he saw his little nephew was stuck.
He got excited and said inexplicably: "Hello, comrade, my name is Wei Lan, I am a deputy section chief of the Municipal Party Committee, I am 22 years old, and I live in..."
Lin Shu interrupted him, "Hello, Section Chief Wei."
What's wrong with this guy? He introduced himself right away. Did he think it was a blind date?
Wei Lan's already red face instantly turned red, "Comrade, comrade, I haven't asked for your name yet."
Lin Shu: "Section Chief Wei, I have a child."
Wei Lan was speechless. He wanted to say something, but Lin Shu turned around and ran to the hospital.
He wanted to chase him, but suddenly a man fell down at his feet. He was so scared that he took his little nephew and took a step back. He saw the man on the ground with a flying knife stuck in his thigh and a small suitcase in his arms.
Two men rushed up from behind, quickly covered the injured man's mouth and dragged him away.
It happened too suddenly and ended too quickly. Wei Lan and his nephew were stunned and didn't know what happened.
Lu Shaotang pulled the flying knife from the man's leg, rubbed it on the man's clothes twice and put it back into the sheath.
