Divorced Military Wife (18) (1/2)
Li Chunhua was very enthusiastic towards these women who her son said had taken care of her daughter-in-law. Although the little girl whose hand she held in front of her looked strange, she didn't take it seriously. Instead, she just kept holding her hand and kept talking. began to speak.
"I wanted to come with you before. After all, Shi Heng also had something to do, and Xuezhu was pregnant for the first time and had no experience. The family was building a new house and couldn't live without people, and she had to rent a house to live in. Originally, I wanted to let Xuezhu stay in her hometown, but I was worried about disturbing her while building a house. In the end, I felt relieved when Shi Heng said that there was nothing missing in the army and there was a hospital. "
"In the past few months, I haven't been able to eat or sleep well at home. I was afraid that Shi Heng couldn't take care of Xuezhu. No, I came over as soon as the house was ready."
Zhou Qianqian stiffened her face, looking at the woman in front of her who looked at He Xuezhu with a face full of love, and even wondered if she was dreaming.
She also has a mother-in-law. Before joining the army, she had seen other people's mothers-in-law and daughters-in-law get along with each other. In Zhou Qianqian's impression, as long as she was a mother-in-law, she would be somewhat dissatisfied with her daughter-in-law.
When her mother was dissatisfied with her sister-in-law, she once said that between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, there must always be someone who bows her head. Her mother didn't want to be the one who bowed her head, so she had to subdue him from the beginning.
After Zhou Qianqian got married, she did notice that her mother-in-law was vaguely dissatisfied with her. Instead of resisting, she chose to be humble and careful to please her.
After all, she also knew clearly that between herself and her mother-in-law, her husband would definitely choose her mother-in-law as her biological mother.
So when she found out that Lin Shiheng's mother didn't like He Xuezhu, her mother-in-law, Zhou Qianqian felt that she had expected it and had no doubt at all.
But she never expected that Lin Shiheng's mother would come and act more affectionate than He Xuezhu's biological mother.
Li Chunhua held the hand of the person in front of her and talked for a long time without getting any response. When she looked again, she could only see Zhou Qianqian's ugly face.
How could this person be like a piece of wood and still expect her to continue following his words?
She let go of her hand in disgust, and shook hands with someone else.
The person being shaken this time was Sister-in-law Zhang, who was close to He Xuezhu. She was very cooperative and sighed: "You are so kind to Xuezhu."
"That is!"
This was what Li Chunhua was waiting for, and she immediately raised her chest and raised her head with a proud look on her face: "This girl Xuezhu, I fell in love with her before she even got married to my family. She has a good appearance, figure, and good temper. She works well." It’s neat and tidy, and I felt as soon as I saw it, that this is my destined daughter-in-law!”
He Xuezhu was supported by Lin Shiheng, and was a little confused when she heard her mother-in-law's words. At that time, she only knew that one day her mother suddenly told her that the Lin family was interested in her, and the family had already asked for a betrothal gift, so she just had to wait for her marriage with peace of mind. I really didn’t know that my mother-in-law came to propose marriage because she liked her.
The expression on the old lady's face before the meeting did not seem to be fake. Sister-in-law Zhang, who had been secretly worried about Xue Zhu in her heart, breathed a sigh of relief and smiled on her face: "That's really a good match, and Xue Zhu is very lucky." ”
When Li Chunhua heard this, the smile on her face suddenly became more kind: "No way, this child Xuezhu is still annoying. Before, Shi Heng was in the army. As his wife, she should follow the army, but she still doesn't trust me, an old woman, so she He stayed with me in the village for three years."
"Three years, I can count the number of times I've met Shiheng on both hands. I was greedy before because I liked Xuezhu and wanted her to spend more time with me. But then I thought about it, I can't be so selfish, right? , No matter how much I like Xue Zhu, I can’t let her and Shi Heng be separated for such a long time.”
He Xuezhu was lamenting that her mother-in-law liked her so much. When she heard Li Chunhua's words, she was even more emotional as she was pregnant.
Did it turn out that her mother-in-law didn't let her follow Shi Heng in the army because she liked her?
Lin Shiheng said at the right time: "Mom, if you like Xuezhu, just stay here. We will buy a house here and live together as a family in the future."
"No, no, your father's grave is still in the village. I have to guard him." Li Chunhua replied to her son, and then explained to Sister-in-law Zhang: "The man in my family left early, and the family members in our family died before they were thirty. Unless the grave is moved after death, someone must guard it at home, otherwise the person is afraid of becoming a lonely ghost. "
Of course Sister-in-law Zhang would not be ignorant and say that this is all feudal superstition. After hearing this, she also exclaimed: "It's not easy for you either."
"It's okay, okay. In the past, I only thought about raising my children, but then I didn't expect that my children would join the army when they were one year old. Fortunately, Xuezhu was with me, which gave me, an old woman, some comfort."
Li Chunhua never left his daughter-in-law, He Xuezhu, and after chatting for a few more words, she reluctantly let go of Sister-in-law Zhang's hand, "Then I'll go back now. I've been specially picking hens in the past few months. Baby, I have managed to raise big chickens by carefully serving them every day. Each one is particularly good at laying eggs. This kind of egg-laying hen soup is the most nourishing. I brought it with great difficulty, just waiting to supplement my snow beads. As for the body, they are all alive, I have to quickly loosen them up and stop them from wilting.”
"Hey, go ahead."
The eyes of the women in front of him were more or less surprised and envious. Only then did Li Chunhua let go of his hand with satisfaction.
She had been thinking of various countermeasures since her son and daughter-in-law left.
First of all, Shi Heng's loss of fertility must never be known to others, and Shi Heng is still trying to hide it from her, the mother-in-law. Li Chunhua knows that her son is worried that she will be sad if she finds out, and she can't bear to expose it.
In fact, Li Chunhua would be very satisfied as long as she could leave a bloodline to Shi Heng and allow him to be a father so that he wouldn't have anyone to pay homage to him when he got old.
But then, she began to think about the gender of the child.
To be honest, Li Chunhua certainly hopes that He Xuezhu will have a fat boy in her belly, but although she is a rural woman, she also knows that this kind of thing is not what she wants.
It would be fine if it was a son, but if it were a girl, just the whole family of Lao Lin's family would be enough to give people a headache.
A few months later, after working hard to brainwash herself, Li Chunhua finally changed from feeling tight in the chest, short of breath, and uncomfortable all over when she thought of He Xuezhu giving birth to a girl, to "it's good to raise her if she's a girl, and it's not bad if she's a son."
No matter what, as long as it was her Shiheng's child, she would hold it in her hands, so what happened to the girl! The chairman also said that boys and girls are the same! Isn’t she Li Chunhua also a girl?
Next, you should think carefully about how you will explain to others why you don’t want a second child if you really give birth to a girl.
Li Chunhua had not studied for a few years, but at any rate she was better than He Xuezhu, who said he was sent to elementary school, but actually received books, paper and pens and was taken home to continue working as a laborer.
After months of thinking, she finally came up with a way to prevent others from suspecting her son's infertility and prevent her son from revealing the reason why he couldn't have children.
That is, everyone thought that she, Li Chunhua, liked He Xuezhu very much.
Even if the baby is a girl, she can still prevent them from having more children on the grounds that she feels sorry for the health of her daughter-in-law, He Xuezhu.
Li Chunhua knew that by doing this, if it was a girl, those rags that should covet her Shi Heng would still covet her, but at least doing this would make Shi Heng think that she didn't know that her son couldn't have a child.
It would also make Shi Heng less uncomfortable.
It should be said that Li Chunhua had already thought about taking good care of He Xuezhu, but she still felt a little uncomfortable when she thought about how her mother-in-law was reduced to taking care of her daughter-in-law, so she suppressed it for the sake of her son.
But when his son picked him up from the train station, Shi Heng was a filial child. In the car, he even said that he would let Xuezhu cook and wash clothes for her as a mother, and take good care of her.
On the surface, Li Chunhua reprimanded her son on how to let the pregnant Xuezhu do things, but she couldn't help but feel happy in her heart.
In his son's heart, she, the mother, is the most important compared to his pregnant daughter-in-law. As a mother, how could Li Chunhua be unhappy.
After being happy, any trace of dissatisfaction with He Xuezhu that he had to serve her disappeared.
This child doesn't know that in Shi Heng's heart, she is not as good as him.
But she couldn't let her know that pregnant people love to think too much. Fortunately, she warned Shi Heng not to let Xue Zhu do the work, and she couldn't show her preference for mother between mother and daughter-in-law.
Thinking of this, her back straightened up even more, and she tilted her head with a smile to ask her daughter-in-law, who looked at her pregnant daughter-in-law with gratitude and admiration in her eyes: "Xuezhu, how long have you been waiting? You child, you are at home. It’s okay, Mom is not an outsider, she came out specially to wait, don’t catch a cold in such a cold day.”
"Mom will make some chicken soup for you in a minute. Take a good rest, ah."
Seeing the admiration in He Xuezhu's eyes deepening, Li Chunhua felt comfortable and felt a little guilty at the same time.
How could this kid be so easy to deceive? He actually believed what she just said without any doubt.
However, those words were not all made up by her. I hadn't noticed before that Xuezhu, the daughter-in-law, was really annoying.
Seeing her eyes full of admiration and dependence as she looked at Lin Shiheng, Li Chunhua, the mother-in-law who knew the "truth", felt a little more pity in her eyes.
Shi Heng is an inconsiderate child, and she, as a mother, cannot be like this.
She had to be nicer to Xuezhu, and even nicer.
***
Sister-in-law Zhang sent people away and looked at the family of three who were gradually leaving with Li Chunhua's kind and kind questions, her eyes filled with envy and relaxation.
"I never expected that Captain Lin's mother would like Xuezhu so much."
"Yes, she looks closer than her biological daughter. Xue Zhu is so lucky to have such a good mother-in-law."
While talking, a woman who usually didn't deal with Zhou Qianqian suddenly thought of something, turned around and looked at Zhou Qianqian, whose face was ashen: "What did someone say before? Eat dirt?"
"Hey, but I didn't eat from the plastic bag last time, so I guess I won't eat it this time. From now on, if you don't have a good eye, don't speak anymore. Anyway, what you say is almost like fart, and it will never be fulfilled. of."
Zhou Qianqian's face turned pale as she was squeezed. She subconsciously turned her head to look at Miao Xing, wanting her to say a few words for her. However, she saw that Miao Xing's face was not very good-looking either. Her delicate and beautiful makeup when she went out was a little dull. He didn't look at her at all.
And the woman who was not dealing with her was still sarcastic: "If you don't want to eat, just go home and hide. Like last time, you hide for ten days and a half. Isn't this your strength?"
"Just eat! Do you think I'm afraid of you?"
Zhou Qianqian couldn't stand the provocation the most. When she heard the words, her brain got hot and she actually squatted down to grab a handful of soil. However, when she was about to put it in her mouth, she smelled the earthy smell at the tip of her nose and hesitated to open her mouth.
How could she eat it if it was so disgusting?
But if she didn't eat it, she would definitely be laughed at and pointed at behind her back.
As she hesitated, she suddenly had an idea and rushed to the tree with her belly in her arms and retched while holding the trunk.
Several people knew that she was pregnant, and they were all shocked to see this scene. Even the woman who didn't get along with her stopped and dared not force her anymore.
There was a life in her belly. If something went wrong, it would be a deadly feud.
Seeing that they really gave up forcing her, Zhou Qianqian bent down and held the tree trunk, with a smug smile on her face.
Just as she was feeling proud, something suddenly fell from above and landed on her head.
Zhou Qianqian subconsciously reached out and wiped it, and she wiped a hand full of bird shit.
Her expression immediately became stiff and pale. Before she could react, another piece of shit fell from the sky and landed right on her forehead. It slid down slowly with a foul smell.
"Ah!!!"
"Hahahahahaha!!!"
Seeing her in such an embarrassed state, the young wife who had been at odds with her just now laughed: "You deserve it!! God is punishing you for spreading rumors!"
"Bullshit!"
Zhou Qianqian had been so angry at the successive blows that she had lost her mind: "Do you really think He Xuezhu's mother-in-law likes her? It's not her belly. As long as she gives birth to a girl, you just wait!"
"Who would believe you now? You'd better go back and wash the bird shit off your face!"
"He Xuezhu will give birth next month."
"You see, her mother-in-law favors boys over girls, and she will definitely turn against her!"
She still swore, but this time, she didn't dare to promise what she would eat if she didn't do as she said.
