Chapter 41: Words That Hurt



The next day, when Sun Jiaxue was cooking, Yang Daya came over with a bowl.

"Sister-in-law, your bowl."

"Third sister-in-law, come and sit for a while."

"Unlike you, I have to go to work. Do you think everyone is as idle as you?"

Yang Daya didn't want to quarrel at first, but she got angry as she was talking. She left immediately before saying anything more, fearing that she couldn't control her mouth.

Sun Jiaxue smiled helplessly and suddenly felt that Yang Daya was quite interesting.

This was the first time she heard Yang Daya call her sister-in-law in private.

Li Mingqing counted the vegetables planted in the space, cucumbers, eggplants, tomatoes... a large amount, enough for the young couple to eat for three to two months.

He thought it would be better to do a favor and give the dish as a free portion for money, so that if he could be of use to someone in the future, he could ask for it.

I filled half a bag with vegetables and tied it to the bicycle.

Unlike the villagers, city dwellers had nowhere to dig wild vegetables, and relying on their two-ticket monthly salary, they didn't eat much. Plus, it was early spring, so there was really no food to eat.

"Manager Qian, are you busy?"

"Brother Li, I was thinking of coming to see you in the next two days, but I didn't expect you to come first."

"I came here today to ask if you need any vegetables. My wife grows them at home."

"Yes, we can actually grow vegetables in this season."

"We have a kang at home, and it's incredibly warm inside. To be honest, we've been short on vegetables this winter, and with the weather getting warmer, the vegetables are growing well."

After hearing this, Qian Kai said, "How many dishes are there? I want them all."

Li Mingqing took the bag off the bicycle and was shocked when he opened the bag to see the money.

These vegetables look better than anything grown in the summer.

"Brother, the vegetables you planted are really juicy. Here's ten dollars."

"Manager Qian, I won't take any money, it's just a home-cooked meal."

"No, I won't take it."

"Okay, I'll take the ten dollars."

Before Li Mingqing left, Qian Kai gave him two more bottles of canned fruit.

After he left, Qian Kai thought that the life of the country people seemed much better than that of a manager like him.

Li Mingqing returned to the town and went straight to Zhou Jiangang, giving him some cucumbers and tomatoes.

"Brother Li, can you still get some food? Brother Zheng asked me to ask you."

"Food is in short supply. It's really gone. If I had more, I would come to you."

Zhou Jiangang was afraid that he would go back on his word and said, "You said so. If you have food, you must think of us."

"Okay, you still don't trust me."

Seeing how enthusiastic he was, Li Mingqing knew that he had made a lot of money on the last trip, and the price he would get after reselling it would definitely not be low.

Zhou Jiangang said with a smile: "Do you have any coal briquettes at home? I'll give you a few."

"Don't smile like that. It doesn't suit you. It's creepy."

"Brother Li, your words really hurt my heart. I'm just happy to see you."

"Don't be so mean, you're just happy to see the money."

"Look at what you said. I am the kind of person who is greedy for money."

"Okay, leave the coal briquettes at the grove this afternoon, and I'll take them home when I get off work."

After Li Mingqing left, Zhou Jiangang took a bite of the tomato and it was really refreshing.

Li Mingqing never expected that Sun Jiaxue would come.

"Wife, why are you here?"

"I came to see you on the way. My third sister-in-law is in the hospital. I came to see her."

"What happened to Yang Daya?"

"I don't know the details, but I heard she was pregnant and she had spotting in the field."

"Wife, I haven't finished get off work yet. Please go to the hospital for me. If there is anything wrong, come and find me."

Sun Jiaxue nodded and prepared to leave.

Li Mingqing took her back and led her into the supply and marketing cooperative and said, "Sister Zhao, Comrade Zhou, this is my wife."

Sun Jiaxue didn't expect him to introduce himself to his colleagues.

"Hello." He said awkwardly.

Zhou Yingzi couldn't believe it when she saw her. How could she not be a yellow-faced woman?

Her face looked much whiter and tenderer than mine, with watery eyes, a small nose, and a cherry mouth. Even she, as a woman, thought it was beautiful.

Zhao Xiaoling smiled and said, "Sister-in-law is really beautiful. No wonder Comrade Li is obsessed with her."

When Sun Jiaxue heard this, her face instantly turned red.

"My wife is shy, so please be quiet."

The blush on Sun Jiaxue's face did not disappear until she arrived at the hospital.

She was unfamiliar with the place and asked several nurses before she found Yang Daya's ward.

Also here with them are Old Lady Li and Li Mingfang.

"Mom, Third Brother, how is my sister-in-law?"

The three of them didn't expect Li Jiaxue to come over and were shocked.

"Jiaxue, why are you here?"

"I came to check on you and brought you some food. You can fill your stomach first."

After saying this, Sun Jiaxue took the buns out of the basket.

"Thank you for your trouble. Go home. Your third brother and I are here."

"When will my third sister-in-law be discharged from the hospital?"

"I need to observe for another day or two. If I go home, I won't be able to keep the baby in my belly."

Upon hearing this, Sun Jiaxue knew that the problem was serious.

"Okay, I'll come back tomorrow morning to deliver food, and you can eat these buns tonight."

The lady on the bed next to her said, "Sister, this is your daughter, right?"

"My daughter-in-law."

After hearing this, the aunt was full of envy that the sisters-in-law got along so harmoniously.

The first thing Yang Daya did when she woke up was to ask about the child.

"Mom, is the child okay?"

"It's okay. Stay here for two days and go home when you feel stable."

Yang Daya finally breathed a sigh of relief. If something really happened to the baby in her belly, she would never forgive herself.
