Chapter 233 The beginning of troubled times
I don’t know if she had an illusion after listening to Meng Buli’s reminder.
Lin Yiyi felt like someone was staring at her.
After returning to the family compound, I never went out easily again.
If she hadn't met Meng Buli at the post office, she would have had no idea that the letter of complaint had been discovered.
Being attacked by a black stick in retaliation when you are caught off guard is definitely a dangerous thing.
Lin Yiyi is afraid of heat and sun exposure. Because of the high temperature in summer, her activities are limited to the staff quarters, canteen, and bathhouse in the steel plant.
Basically, I didn't leave this circle, which also helped me avoid trouble.
To avoid overthinking.
After returning home, Lin Yiyi began to read and study as planned.
The weather was hot and the small house was particularly stuffy, and the cicadas in the trees outside the house kept chirping.
I can't calm down and the external interference is obvious.
So study time became extra busy: I swatted mosquitoes, scratched my itch, applied floral water, drank water, fanned myself, and went to the toilet.
When there is a lot to do, time passes quickly and it is almost time for dinner soon.
Today is the weekend and the school is on summer vacation, so there are many children playing in the yard, throwing sandbags, jumping rubber rope, and playing hopscotch.
Noisy, chasing and fighting.
No matter how much they play, when it’s time to eat, they run back home without waiting for the adults to call them.
I was afraid that I would go back too late and would not be able to compete with my older brothers and sisters, and would have to eat less steamed bread or two.
Lin Yiyi was making lunch in front of the stove in the corridor. She cut a bowl of pumpkin and steamed it in a pot, and also boiled two eggs.
I also brewed a cup of goat milk powder. The combination is nutritious and healthy.
After finishing the nutritious meal, I washed all the cherries the man brought back, filled a jar with molasses, and had the remaining small bowl as afternoon tea fruit.
Lin Yiyi actually knows a little about pregnancy. She said she should eat more vegetables, fruits, fish, and protein, and remember to supplement calcium.
Apart from the offal, it’s pretty much the same as a fat-reducing meal.
In order to ensure a smooth delivery, you should also insist on light exercise and eat small and frequent meals.
In this day and age, raising a child too old will cost you your life.
Lin Yiyi estimated that the baby weighed five or six kilograms, plus the amniotic fluid and placenta, the total was about eleven kilograms. She had to control her weight gain during pregnancy to within twenty-five kilograms.
In order to be beautiful, she can discipline herself and control her diet.
Not to mention for life.
Zhaojiatun.
Zhao Li and Ma Dongmei have been worried about one thing for the past half month.
Fortunately, I finally received the admission notice from Uncle Zhao.
Adopting the principle of proximity, the university assigned to me is the transportation university in this province.
School starts in early September, and it’s already August 20th.
We have to leave for the provincial capital in these two days at the latest.
Zhao Li and Ma Dongmei didn't have time to go to work, so they left work early and went home, and then started packing their clothes, toiletries and bedding.
Ma Dongmei took out the family's savings and told them, "When you get to the provincial capital, you should eat and spend as you like. Don't worry about home. Study hard and work hard."
Zhao Li refused and put the crumpled bills back into his wife's hands. "What are you doing? I'll leave all the money to you and the kids. I only need ten dollars."
Ma Dongmei disagreed, "Ten yuan is not enough. It's not like we don't have money. I've saved the money you've used to buy herbs over the years. When you go out, you don't have to worry if you have money in your bag."
“That puts me at ease.”
Zhao Li was determined not to accept it, but after hearing his wife's last words, he did not insist.
He whispered to her again about the exchange between him and his second brother, and told her not to tell anyone.
Ma Dongmei is not stupid. If her parents-in-law knew about this, she would make a fuss and ask them for money and things.
As long as someone can earn money at home, who wouldn’t be exploited by his or her parents-in-law?
Once you enter Lao Zhao’s house, even the fattest mice will be shaved thin.
At lunch time, some people are happy and some are worried.
Wang Caihong should be very happy that there is a college student in her family.
But when I think of my little son who is tanned and thin from working on the farm, and my little daughter who can't remember anything.
She couldn't be happy no matter what.
Even though they are all my own children, the ten fingers are of different lengths.
Zhao Liren did not eat with the Zhao family because she could not stand the thought of Zhao's father repeatedly picking up food with chopsticks.
He reluctantly ate a few bites of the coarse grain rice sent by Zhao's mother in the house, but he didn't finish it as he had no appetite.
Wait for Zhao's mother to come and collect the dishes.
Zhao Liren took the herbal medicine bag she brought back yesterday and said uncomfortably, "Mom, help me boil the medicine."
I felt particularly uncomfortable calling a strange middle-aged woman my mother.
Wang Caihong was shocked. "What kind of medicine is this? Don't just prescribe random medicines."
She can't bear to hear the word medicine now.
She was really scared because her daughter almost died after taking the abortion recipe.
"I didn't prescribe it randomly. This is the medicine I got from the town clinic for irregular menstruation."
Wang Caihong didn't understand: "What? What's wrong?"
"It's a monthly thing, and it's always dirty."
Wang Caihong's expression suddenly changed: "..."
The girl has no memory and forgot that she was pregnant and had an abortion.
I only believed what she said about catching a cold and having a high fever after being caught in the rain.
But it’s better to forget it. She doesn’t want her daughter to know that she was almost killed by her own mother.
Mother Zhao picked up the herbal medicine bag and said earnestly, "Rest in your room. Don't stay out all night like you did yesterday. Don't ruin your reputation."
"Okay, okay, stop nagging, I get it."
Zhao Liren really didn't like her "mother's" nagging and didn't want to tell her more about what had happened. She lay back on the kang and covered her head with the quilt.
"Okay, okay, I won't say anything. I'll bring the medicine to you as soon as I make it."
My daughter's temperament has changed a lot since she woke up.
Zhao's mother Wang Caihong held the bowl and chopsticks in her left hand and the medicine bag in her right hand. She entered the kitchen and gave the bowl and chopsticks to Ma Dongmei to wash.
Then he started to boil medicine in a clay pot, but this medicine was different from that other medicine.
I boiled a pot of water with some very bitter dried wild vegetables and bitter gourd, and because the color wasn't dark enough, I added a few drops of soy sauce.
My daughter can't remember anything, and the medicine she took to treat her daily life is not suitable for her condition at all.
Totally undrinkable.
Zhao's mother threw the herbal bag directly into the stove and burned it as firewood.
After cooking for half an hour, when it was almost done, I picked the leaves and brought it into the house.
After the little girl drank, Zhao's mother returned to the main house.
When she thought about the prescription the village doctor prescribed for her, she felt extremely aggrieved. He almost killed her daughter, and she couldn't even go to the village doctor to seek justice.
Otherwise, if the news gets out, the girl will have no choice but to jump into the river to prove her innocence, or be reported for being a hooligan and getting pregnant out of wedlock.
…
Ze County Family Compound.
Zhao Sheng was very busy these two days, with a lot of things to do outside, and when he got home it was already past the lights-out time.
After washing up, I went to bed in the dark. Before I lay down, a woman's soft voice was heard.
"You're finally back. I almost fell asleep."
Zhao Sheng lowered his voice and asked, "You have been waiting for me all night. Did something happen?"
Remembering what Meng Buli reminded her of at the post office during the day, Lin Yiyi chose to tell the man all her concerns and worries.
After hearing the whole story, Zhao Sheng frowned slightly, and without hesitation, he coaxed her in a deep voice, "It's okay, don't be afraid, try to go out less during this period, and leave the things to me."
"No matter what happens in the future, tell me, no matter how big or small it is. Don't worry about it alone. Your health is not good to begin with, and now you are pregnant. You have to be more careful when I am not at home."
Lin Yiyi said "hmm" softly and told the man about it. After getting his forgiveness, she felt much more at ease.
I snuggled up beside him and soon felt sleepy again.
But the person next to me couldn't sleep.
