In front of guests, it’s hard to say not to entertain them, but most of the time there is only a husband and wife at home, what is there to say between husband and wife? To entertain guests, you have to fry at least one meat dish, and you have to work hard all year round.
If you are reluctant to eat it and use it to entertain outsiders, isn’t this being careless?
The point is, it didn’t matter what happened before, but now that you have a daughter-in-law at home, especially when you are begging for help, why should you take your daughter-in-law’s thoughts into consideration?
Jiang's mother saw that she was about to stop talking, and felt bitter again: "I know, you must think that I don't care about men. But not all men in this world listen to their wives. His father has such a temper, who made me suffer.
She waved her hand and said, "Jiayu is completely angry with me. I have to go back tomorrow morning. From now on, the affairs in this yard will be left to you. If anything happens to you, be sure to let me know."
Kong had no choice but to agree.
Jiang's mother looked at the main room: "Over there at Jiayu... you might as well give us a nice word if you look for an opportunity. His father's words are not pleasant to listen to, but they are not what he thinks from his heart."
Kong was silent: "His temper needs to be changed. Jiayu is different from other wives. No matter whether Jixiao can read or not, now your family has to rely on Jiayu, who is said to be short-handed..." You two don't want to be together...
Put the elders’ records in front of your daughter-in-law.
The relationship is not that serious, and some words cannot be said clearly, but Jiang’s mother already understood. She became more and more aggrieved: "I, Jiayu, are good enough, do you think whose daughter-in-law in the village is so happy?"
This is true.
However, Shen Jiayu didn't take advantage of her husband's family. She spent her own money renting land to live in. What she wanted was freedom. She even supported her husband's education. What happened to Xiaoyao?
Kong only said: "I really envy you for having such a daughter-in-law. For my son to have such a thing and marry someone similar to Jiayu, I am about to wake up from my dream."
In her opinion, there is no shame in accommodating her daughter-in-law. Being hungry is the most terrifying thing in the world.
Jiang's mother understood what she was thinking, so she didn't bother her at all. She got up early in the morning, packed her things, took the initiative to say hello to her daughter-in-law, gave her instructions again and again, and then left.
After the people left, the courtyard became completely quiet. Kong did everything according to Chu Yunli's instructions. To be honest, without the interference of the Jiang family and his wife, and without the scheming of people with ulterior motives, Shen Jiayu could still live his life.
In the following days, except for the occasional interruption from the Shen family's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, there was no one else or anything that Chu Yunli needed to worry about.
In the blink of an eye, it had been half a month since Chu Yunli gave birth to her child.
Moreover, Jiang Jixiao, who was rushing to take the exam in the city, finally came back after finishing the exam.
Jiang Jixiao had been thinking about him since he was a child, but Linglong Town was too remote and there were few people in the city. He couldn't find anyone to inquire about, and he didn't know the news about his family. After the exam started, he focused on it and didn't answer questions after the exam.
, found the carriage and rushed back.
The sunshine has been getting better and better recently, making people sleepy. One afternoon, Chu Yunli was woken up.
Outside, Mrs. Kong was overjoyed: "I'm back."
Jiang Jixiao's heart was filled with joy as he returned home. After a long and dusty journey, when he saw the quiet yard when he got home, his mood suddenly relaxed. He looked at Kong's face and asked hurriedly: "Is Jiayu giving birth?"
If he rented a carriage with other people, he would have to get off at the entrance of the town. He would definitely get news about his family along the way. But he was too anxious and did not want to wait for anyone, so he spent a lot of money to rent one himself and drove him directly.
Delivered to your doorstep.
"Give birth!" Mrs. Kong chanted: "Mother and child are safe."
Jiang Jixiao relaxed. Tired from taking the exam and running all the way, he collapsed on the ground and murmured: "It's good to be safe, it's good to be safe."
Mrs. Kong was startled and hurriedly stepped forward to help her: "You don't look good. Take a rest. Are you hungry?"
Jiang Jixiao looked towards the main room.
There, his wife stood in front of the window, looking at him coldly.
With that look in his eyes, Jiang Jixiao was stunned for a moment. Why did he seem to be a different person?
He turned his head and looked at Kong: "What happened while I was away?"
Mrs. Kong was already planning to make him a bowl of egg drop soup to fill his stomach first, and then cook. When he heard this, his face froze, and he subconsciously looked towards the window of the main room.
"This...it's not easy for me to say. Just go ahead and do it."
Jiang Jixiao was startled: "Is something really going on?"
Mr. Kong lowered his head and went into the kitchen: "I'll make you some soup. You take a sip first. I'll cook right away."
Jiang Jixiao was stunned. He gradually became uneasy and cautiously called out: "Jiayu?"
"Just come back." Chu Yunli looked him up and down: "You are covered in dust, wash up first, change your clothes and then see the child."
Jiang Jixiao came back to his senses: "Okay! Just rest and leave me alone."
Chu Yunli agreed and closed the window.
Jiang Jixiao in the yard looked at the closed window and was stunned. There was no wind during the confinement period, so it was closed too quickly, right? Shen Jiayu must have been scared when she gave birth to a child after the couple had not seen each other for so long, but now that she saw him
, why not say?
It's not that he has to talk to his wife, but Shen Jiayu's attitude... she used to be quite clingy to him, and they would talk endlessly whenever they had time, no!
He asked Kong to boil water in the kitchen. He had something on his mind and didn't want to go anywhere else. He simply moved firewood to help light the fire. Looking at his aunt busy behind the stove, he couldn't help but asked: "What on earth happened?" After a pause, he added: "
Jiayu's giving birth will hurt her body, and I don't want her to be hurt mentally. Just tell me honestly."
Kong was helpless: "It's not that I didn't say anything, it was because I was afraid that you would think I was provoking."
Jiang Jixiao insisted on listening.
Kong had no choice but to tell what happened these days.
The more he listened, the darker Jiang Jixiao's face turned.
When he finished eating, washed up, and entered the main room again, his face was full of guilt.
Chu Yunli looked at the young man in front of her and sighed in her heart: "Come and see the child."
Jiang Jixiao's face was slightly relieved, and he stepped forward to look at the baby, but did not dare to reach out to hold it.
"A hug." Chu Yunli urged: "We almost lost him."
Jiang Jixiao felt more and more guilty. Some things cannot be ignored without mentioning them. He whispered: "My father is shameless. In fact, I knew he was unreliable, so I took you to live in the town. This time
It's just a coincidence that I really didn't want to take the exam... Jiayu, it's because I can't support you. I shouldn't marry a family like this."
Chu Yunli couldn't say anything that didn't blame him, so she closed her eyes and leaned on the bed: "With all the things he did, I can't help but hate him. Maybe you don't know, when I was alone in this room waiting to give birth to my child, I felt really sad.
I thought I would die. I never thought that I was worse than those women in the mountains. They at least had someone watching over them, but I... I was the only one. I was afraid that no one would know if I died, and I was even more afraid that my children would not be able to
Coming to this world...Jiang Jixiao, don't force me to accommodate him in the future! If you can't do it, you can make peace with me now."
"No!" Jiang Jixiao said immediately: "Jiayu, you are my wife and you have done your best for me. I promise you that this kind of thing will never happen again. I will definitely protect you from now on..."
"That's not necessary." Chu Yunli raised her eyes and looked at him: "Rather than you staying by my side, I hope you study hard and gain fame. "
Jiang Jixiao's eyes were red: "Okay!"
He lay on the bedside, his whole body trembling slightly, and it took him a long while before he trembled: "Are you afraid?"
"I was afraid. It got better later." Chu Yunli turned her head and looked at the baby: "I have to take care of the child."
Jiang Jixiao felt uncomfortable.
The scholars who were rushing to take the exam in the city came back. Although they knew that it was difficult to become a scholar, they still had to dream. When Jiang's mother got the news the next day, she immediately came to the town.
She didn't tell the man when she left because she didn't want him to come to her daughter-in-law's yard. There would definitely be a noise when they met.
But Jiang's father would not listen to her, especially since she didn't even say hello. Shortly after she left, Jiang's father followed her. Moreover, he found a bullock cart to transport him, and soon chased Jiang's mother.
Jiang's mother wanted to tell him not to come, but she couldn't say it. Seeing that she had reached the town, she couldn't bear it any longer and advised: "We'll get there in a while, please stop yelling and don't start any more quarrels!"
"I'm not wrong!" Jiang's father said plausibly: "Even if I was wrong, I apologized. I didn't come here for any reason. Shen Jiayu kept holding it, so that the two of us had to praise it like servants.
Dreaming about her? Bah, she’s dreaming!”
Jiang’s mother: “…” Really, with this attitude, it’s hard not to start a quarrel when we get to the ground.
She persuaded her earnestly: "If you are making trouble with her, first of all, we are unreasonable. She is still in confinement. If we really start to argue, it is our fault. Also, Jixiao is caught in the middle and is in a dilemma. That's your fault."
Son, you feel sorry for him."
"Who feels sorry for me?" Jiang's father said angrily: "I came back from the city and ran around for several days. I didn't even have a hot meal. You all blamed me one by one..."
After saying this, he felt that it was pointless to bring up old things again. He waved his hand impatiently: "I came to see my son, not to see her. As long as she doesn't mess with me, I won't mess with her."
Jiang's mother was very worried. The driver of the bullock cart was a villager. After hearing the couple's quarrel, she looked embarrassed and turned around as soon as she arrived.
When Jiang Jixiao saw his parents, his face was complicated: "Mom, you are here."
Jiang's father noticed his son's cold attitude and said coldly, "What did Shen Jiayu tell you?"
"She didn't say anything." Jiang Jixiao looked at him: "Dad, I came back safely and successfully passed the county exam. It will take another month before the results are released. I can't wait. I came back first. If you win or miss, it's still early.
It’s here.”
Father Jiang frowned: "Are you sure?"
"Anyway, I've finished the answer. Whether I get it or not depends on the sky." Jiang Jixiao looked at the main room: "The child made a big fuss last night. Jiayu just went to bed not long ago. If nothing happens..."
"What a shameless kid. If I weren't worried about you, do you think I want to come?" Father Jiang was furious: "Just pretend I haven't been here."
After saying that, he fluttered his sleeves and left.
Jiang Jixiao didn't stop him, and even stood up and said, "Dad, go slowly."
Father Jiang: "..." What a fart.
He couldn't bear it anymore, so he turned around and said loudly: "I came from the village and haven't eaten lunch yet. I didn't ask you to save the meal. You just said it."
Jiang Jixiao frowned: "Dad, please keep your voice down before you disturb the child again."
"I've only had this voice for decades, and it won't get any better." Jiang's father waved his hand: "Children from farmers' families, don't behave like rich people."
