Chapter 228 Status Quo

In the eyes of Sister He Shixiu and others, there is no couple who does not quarrel, and couples who do not quarrel cannot be regarded as real couples.

Men will often make mistakes, but as long as he still has this family in his heart, it is not unforgivable.

In their hearts, the deep-rooted idea that a woman will marry and obey her husband forever is deeply rooted in their bones.

As long as it's not too bad and life can still be lived, even if it's just manageable, for the sake of the children, no one has thought about going to the step of divorce.

After all, the world is tough, and a woman who has nothing to offer should return to her natal family. Her brothers and sisters have their own families, and her natal parents are getting older, so there is no place for them to establish themselves back home.

It is extremely difficult for a person to go out and live alone, not to mention that there may be children.

Just find another person, who knows what the situation will be? Maybe the situation will only be worse.

It is not easy for a couple to get along with each other halfway.

"Jin Niang, do you really want to reconcile?"

Seeing that Qiao Mingjin was silent, Mrs. Xia asked again.

Do you want to reconcile?

Qiao Mingjin was stunned, thinking about her more than a year in another world...

The ups and downs are beyond words. There is hesitation, loss, loneliness, but no sadness.

There is no sadness like carving out flesh in the previous life.

During the days when she picked it up, she lived quite casually.

She also wanted to live like this.

The world is so difficult. Unlike her previous life where she could move between cities at will. In this life, she cannot leave or avoid it.

Should I open a female household? There is no difference between a female household and a widow’s household.

If you are not careful, your spittle can drown someone. If you move around more frequently, others may mistake it for a secret door.

She comes from that free country, and it would be no better than death for her to be locked up at home.

She has no intention of getting along with others anymore. The wounds from her previous life have not healed yet, and you can see the blood and flesh dripping with them when you pull them lightly.

She has no intention of changing her mind. She has always been a lazy person.

As it is now, living in the name of someone else's wife, living alone, having an identity and freedom, and being able to do whatever you want can be considered.

He would ask Yue Zhongyao about Li Shu. Of course he had selfish motives, and it was also to test his attitude. Of course, the more important reason was that he didn't want to be misled by the Wu family anymore.

Maybe if she changes her place to live, she will be more comfortable away from that group of people?

It's just that she is afraid of being alone, and she is used to being tired. After moving to a new place, she still has to get along with her neighbors, and she also has to slowly get used to each other and understand each other's temperaments. I don't know if she will ever have the pleasant life of Xiahe Village.

Yue Zhongyao was free to marry whomever he liked. She just wanted to retain this identity and live her own life with peace of mind.

Just because she met Zhou Yanqing, the fire she extinguished seemed to be rekindled. Will he be an exception?

She didn't dare to try.

Just like crossing a single-plank bridge, she cautiously stretched her feet forward step by step. Maybe moving forward, there will be a bright future. Maybe a mistake will break her body...

"Jin Niang?"

The three Xia family members couldn't bear to ask questions when they saw her sad expression changing.

After a long time, seeing that she was still immersed in her own thoughts, she couldn't help but cry out anxiously.

Qiao Mingjin came back to her senses and looked at the faces of the three people in front of her, feeling dazed for a moment.

Then he quickly calmed down, smiled at the three of them, and said, "The moonlight is really beautiful today."

The three of them looked at each other. Each could see the solemn look on the other's face.

But they all cleverly stopped what they had just said.

"Yes, it's a full moon today."

"I won't even need to carry a lantern when I get back soon."

The few of them chatted for a while, until the moon was in the sky and Yue Dalei came to pick up Sister Xiu, mother and son, and then they dispersed.

Qiao Mingjin carried Wan'er, who was already asleep on the mat, into the room, and pushed Mingqi to sleep. She washed her hands and feet again, then lifted the quilt and lay down in the room.

The moonlight shines softly through the window screen. My daughter's black hair, which she has raised for a year, is scattered on the pillow, and the little girl is sleeping soundly under the thin quilt.

Qiao Mingjin brushed her daughter's messy hair, looked at her carefully for a while, and then lay down next to her.

No matter how difficult the days are, they are over, right?

No matter how difficult it is, how difficult can it be? There is nothing more difficult than death.

Qiao Mingjin stared at the tent ceiling until her eyelids became heavy, then she closed her eyes and fell asleep...

Yue Zhongyao came early the next day.

Guard the door like a loyal guard.

He knew clearly that he would not see anyone inside, but he was still willing to come to the door and wait early in the morning before the workers in the workshop started work.

He didn't want to go to the door of the workshop, so he was willing to squat in front of Qiao Mingjin's house.

Sometimes Yun Jin and Mr. and Mrs. He opened the door and went to the workshop together, sometimes Yun Jin went to the workshop alone carrying the wicker chair. Women's families would always be slower.

And Yue Zhongyao would always take a look through the crack in the door when Yun Jin opened the courtyard door, and then pick up the wicker chair and go to the workshop with him.

Xia's resentment toward him was lessened. Every time she saw him coming, she would always serve him breakfast.

Yue Zhongyao was embarrassed at first, and it seemed as if he came here early just for breakfast.

But later on, no matter whether he came late intentionally or not, Xia would always leave him a breakfast.

If he doesn't eat, Xia will blame him for wasting food.

What farmers hate most is others wasting food. Even their ignorant children have to eat all the rice in the bowl when eating. Even if it falls on the dining table, they have to pick it up and eat it.

After a few times, Yue Zhongyao accepted Xia's kindness. After all, there was no concept of breakfast in their Yue family.

Of course, that doesn't mean that the Yue family is special. Most villagers only have two meals to eat.

Farmers don't have much nighttime activities. They always have sunrise and sunset. Generally, the first meal will be eaten at the middle or end of Si Shi, and the evening meal will be eaten at Shen Zhong or Shen Mo.

After sunset, winter will get dark at the end of the day, and summer may be longer. It will not get dark until the end of the day.

Most people will ask about this sunrise and moonset schedule.

Qiao Mingjin was used to eating three meals a day. After getting up early, her stomach was empty and she always wanted to eat.

Later, the workshop followed her and changed to three meals a day. The masters also lived in the workshop, and would light up the lamps after dinner in the evening to catch up on work, so they ate too early and had to prepare midnight snacks.

But for Yue Zhongyao, it was a bit embarrassing.

Although he could eat the lunch meal in the workshop with the workers, for the afternoon meal, the Yue family ate early and he went back late. Mrs. Wu was angry with him again, wishing she could save a meal.

So sometimes, he could shamelessly have a dinner at the workshop, and other times, if Yue Xiaoman didn't secretly leave some for him, and if Wu had set a certain amount that day, then he would be hungry.

But if he didn't say it, no one would know.

That day Yue Zhongyao came to Qiao's house early again.

Since he left dinner at Qiao Mingjin's place yesterday, he felt that he was getting closer to the mother and daughter, so he came to squat outside the courtyard gate early.

It's just that others don't understand what the meaning of doing this is, and he also doesn't understand.

Every time he saw his wife, he couldn't hold back his surprise. But every time he saw her opening her mouth, he felt afraid, and his heart clenched tightly.

He was afraid that his wife would ask him for He Lishu.

It was not unknown to him that Zhou Yanqing came to pay homage to Jin Niang every now and then. He wanted to go over and watch over her, but he couldn't move. He was afraid of seeing a scene that would break his heart.

That person is not someone who lets go easily.

He was hiding from a distance, suffering anxiously, guarding the determination in his heart, and hesitantly going through the day.

Now Xiaoman's wedding date has been set. Maybe during the Chinese New Year, he can stay up with his beloved wife and daughter.

Yue Zhongyao thought he had arranged things well, but he didn't know that his mother could not live a stable life.

Ever since Yue Xiaoman's wedding date was set, Mrs. Wu was agitated in various ways.

She has pampered this daughter for more than ten years, and now her marriage is no longer under her control.

It's not the family she's looking for, and she doesn't like it at all. How could it be decided?

Mrs. Wu felt irritable and was not satisfied with anything she saw at home.

If Mrs. Sun or Mr. Yu dissatisfied her with anything, she would get yelled at.

Fortunately, the two sisters-in-law were both thick-skinned and not afraid of being burned. She let her scold her, and they both admitted their mistakes in front of Mrs. Wu. They turned their backs and continued to go their own way.

Mrs. Wu no longer went to find people to brag about her spoiled daughter as she did before, nor did she look for matchmakers to meet young men.

Now she has a lot of time. She doesn't care about the work in the fields. Anyway, the old man and his three sons are still here.

Mrs. Wu could not see anyone else living a better life than she did. Her third son saved her food, so she was naturally happy, but her third son's heart was not at home, and she was extremely anxious.

How could the son she had worked so hard to suppress allow others to enjoy him happily?

Regardless of the hot weather, I would go outside the workshop and hang out every day.

As soon as she saw her son making love to Mrs. Qiao, she went over and pulled him away.

Workers come in and out of the workshop, and occasionally guests come to see and pick up goods, or the family members of the workshop's masters come to visit relatives. You can't just close the door when work starts and open it after work ends.

Therefore, the courtyard door has been wide open since it opened in the morning. Wu naturally wandered in grandly.

When he saw his son doing more work than others and not getting paid for his work, he couldn't help but scold his mother.

After walking around for a while, I caught people and told them that the workshop was a trap and only made people work without paying them.

The chattering and loud voice made the masters want to curse. The Xia family, He family and others were even more angry.

It's just that it's not easy to force her to leave.

It happened that Yun Jin was not there when she came, so Wu said that she would go to Qiao Mingjin to ask why her son was treated so differently and treated as free labor. She said that to work as a cattle servant, she had to rent money from the cattle owner and prepare another copy.

Where's the fodder?

The Xia family and the He family were extremely angry, but how could they be willing to let her bother Qiao Mingjin?

They naturally knew that Qiao Mingjin did not want to see Wu, so they dragged her and called Yue Zhongyao.

Yue Zhongyao tried his best to persuade his wife to go back. How could Mr. Wu be the kind of person who was willing to listen to what others had to say?

As a last resort, Yue Zhongyao dragged her back with He's promise that she would calculate Yue Zhongyao's salary easily. (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendation, monthly vote, you
