Jianshu didn't know that she would soon have a big surprise.
Gu Mingjing took a leave of absence that day. Not long after they returned home from a prenatal checkup at the hospital, Jianshu heard good news from Wu Xiufang.
"Sister-in-law, are you serious? That old woman was sent back home?" Jian Shu's eyes lit up with excitement, and he didn't even bother to eat the apple in his hand.
"Of course, I saw it with my own eyes. You don't know it, but it was so lively at that time. Everyone who was free in the yard went to join in the fun. There were three layers of people surrounding it, and it was very lively. It's a pity that you were not here today, otherwise you would have felt relieved after seeing it." Wu Xiufang said with some regret at the end.
What a beautiful and lively place it was. It’s a pity that it’s gone.
Jianshu felt a little regretful after hearing this. He slapped his thigh and said in annoyance, "If I had known this earlier, I would have gone to the hospital two days later." It was just a routine prenatal check-up anyway, and there was no need to rush in one or two days. There was no excitement to be seen.
"It's okay. The child is more important. How was the examination today? What did the doctor say?" Wu Xiufang comforted him and asked casually.
She said that she had seen a lot more of the world since she met Jianshu. She said she had never thought that you could go to the hospital for a checkup before giving birth. Didn't they just stay home after the checkup and find a midwife when the time came?
However, being particular also has its advantages. Take her son Tiedan, for example. After spending time with Jianshu, he has become a completely different person. She can't put her finger on what the difference is, but when he stands with other children of the same age, he can be distinguished at a glance.
She is happy to see this change. Shushu is an insightful person, and it will be right for the child to learn from her!
Speaking of the child, Jian Shu's face lit up with a smile, "She's doing fine. The doctor said she's grown a lot and is developing well in all aspects. She's very healthy."
"As long as you are healthy, your Yiyi is really well-behaved and doesn't give you much trouble. When I was pregnant with Tiedan, I vomited everything I ate and my stomach was often churning. I couldn't eat or sleep well at that time and I felt very uncomfortable." Wu Xiufang was really envious. Compared to him, she really suffered a lot back then.
"People say you can tell a person's future by looking at him when he's three years old. Tiedan's future has already been seen before he was even born." Jianshu joked as he picked up a piece of apple with a fork.
"Never mind him, let him be. Everyone has their own personality, and you can't change them. As long as he doesn't do anything bad and is just a little naughty, it's okay." After so many years of educating him, he still hasn't changed, so Wu Xiufang has given up. Her expectations are very low now. As long as he doesn't get into trouble, everything else is fine.
Jianshu gave a thumbs up, "Sister-in-law is open-minded." This kind of thinking is really too advanced in this era.
"Haha, I learned it all from you." Wu Xiufang said modestly.
The two of them complimented each other again, smiling happily.
During the meal, Gu Mingjing served them a plate of sunflower seeds, peanuts, candy, and other treats, and also served Wu Xiufang tea. Pregnancy should be avoided, so Jian Shu had a glass of milk.
After chatting for a while, Jianshu remembered the topic they had discussed at the beginning and quickly asked for details. "Sister-in-law, I didn't go to see the fun today. Can you tell me about it? Let me have some fun too."
Wu Xiufang also became interested when this was mentioned. She patted the melon seed shells on her hands, drank the tea smoothly, and then described the scene at that time with her hands and feet gesticulating.
"...I'm telling you, the old woman was clinging to the door frame and refused to leave. When someone tried to pull her away, she kicked and kicked them, and she kept grabbing their faces. Several of my sisters-in-law and brothers-in-law who tried to persuade her were grabbed by her several times. Not only was their hair a mess, but their faces were also covered in red scratches."
"So miserable? Fortunately, sister-in-law, you didn't go forward, otherwise she wouldn't be able to escape. But now, others must hate her to death." Jian Shu imagined the scene and shook her head quickly. To be honest, she had never seen such a scene before.
It turns out that no matter what time it is, lesbians like to pull hair and scratch faces when fighting.
"That's right. Luckily I went there late and didn't squeeze in, otherwise I might have been hit twice." Wu Xiufang felt sympathetic, touched her face, and trembled all over.
"The old woman was so vicious and used so much force that she pulled out several strands of the man's hair. The man couldn't stand it on the spot and rushed over to hit her. Soon, the two of them started fighting. Seeing that things were getting out of hand, the old woman's son came out to mediate. I don't know what he said, but the other party didn't pursue the matter anymore. The old woman didn't make a fuss anymore and obediently picked up her luggage and left." She was far away at the time, and the other party was deliberately closing her eyes, so she couldn't hear clearly at all.
"Tsk, you turned when your car hit a tree, you shook your head when snot was running from your mouth, and you advised me when things got out of hand. What were you doing before? Tsk--" Jianshu curled his lips in disdain and cracked melon seeds loudly, as if to vent his dissatisfaction.
"That's right. If the matter is not made a big deal and the higher-ups don't investigate, he'll be like a blind and deaf person, unable to see or hear anything. What's the point of having him then?" Wu Xiufang also rolled her eyes.
The two of them expressed their contempt for the man.
All the bad things were done by my mother. He was just a filial son who watched his wife and daughter being bullied but was powerless to do anything. How pitiful.
Pooh--
"But it's better this way. Now that the old woman has gone back, she won't be able to bully her daughter-in-law and granddaughter anymore. At least there are so many people here, and leaders are watching over us. The future will be better than before." Although Jian Shu was unhappy that the man was not punished, he had to admit that the current result was the best.
"Yes, if the whole family were to retire and return to their hometown, the old woman would definitely put the blame on the mother and daughter. Then they would really be helpless. Now that we have learned a lesson, we will always be more cautious." Wu Xiufang also nodded.
Then, he couldn't help but laugh as he remembered something. "After this incident, the atmosphere in our family compound will definitely improve a lot. Those who used to favor boys over girls have become more restrained. You remember that old woman from the Tan family? She's been very well behaved lately, and even those two naughty kids have behaved a lot better. They don't dare to bully the little girls in the nursery anymore, for fear of being sent back too."
Compared to other people, they were even more afraid. After all, he wasn't Captain Dong's biological son, just a nephew. If something serious happened, there would be no one to back them up.
