Wu Pengsheng's expression changed slightly and he hurriedly stepped forward to pick up the child.
When Mother Jia heard that Li Qiuman was dragging her on the bed again, her eyesight went dark. Seeing that the child had fallen, she subconsciously stepped forward to help her, but as soon as she got closer, Wu Pengsheng overtook her and she stretched out her hand.
His hand was roughly pushed back.
She was too anxious and couldn't stand firmly on her feet. She stumbled back two steps due to the push, and kicked a basin under her feet. She suddenly fell down and sat down to the side of the bucket uncontrollably. The bucket was knocked over and the water flowed.
It was all over the floor, and most of her clothes were wet.
Over there, Wu Pengsheng picked up the child and saw that it was okay. Just as he was about to breathe a sigh of relief, he heard crackling behind him, and then he saw the mess on the ground and the woman in disgrace.
This is a stall. There are pedestrians passing by on the street. Although the laborers who want to fill their stomachs don't care about neatness or not, it is not good for the people selling food to make it too dirty. Wu Pengsheng had just cleaned it up, and the result changed again.
What's more, the weather is not very good today, and the puddle of water on the ground may not be dry for a day.
"Are you blind? Don't you know where to look?"
Jia Mu was pushed to the ground by him. She felt aggrieved. When she heard his reproach, she felt that this life was impossible: "I also wanted to hold the baby, but you pushed me..."
Wu Pengsheng emphasized: "I didn't mean it."
Jia Mu didn't mean it. She wanted to say a few more words. After all, the two were already husband and wife, and they had to live together without getting into too much trouble. She thought about asking the man to apologize and let the matter go. In the end,
I heard the man opposite urging me: "Take the child back quickly and have a look to see what's going on. The weather is so bad and the quilt is not dry. If you make it like this, it won't be enough to buy ten more beds."
Seeing that Mother Jia was still motionless with tears in her eyes, he stared and said, "Watch what I do, go quickly!"
Jia Mu couldn't help it anymore: "You were not like this before."
"You and I were not married at that time. Now that we are married, we are still the same as before. How will we live our lives?" Wu Pengsheng waved his hand: "Don't hang around here, I still have to clean up these things."
The child came forward and dragged Jia Mu: "Mom, hurry up! If you go late, you will get angry, and my mother will also be scolded."
The stall was not far from Jia's house. Jia's mother went straight into the main room and saw the woman on the bed huddled in the corner.
Yes, even though she was already married and was Wu Pengsheng's serious wife, his first wife Li Qiuman did not move into the house.
"Sister, I'm sorry to trouble you."
Mother Jia secretly complained, rummaged through the cabinet for a clean quilt, and stepped forward to help her. As soon as her hand touched it, Li Qiuman vomited.
By the time she realized what she was doing, her hands and clothes were all covered in the filth she had just spit out.
Jia Mu also felt nausea in her throat, and she tried her best to suppress it. Then the woman next to her said apologetically: "Sister, I'm sorry."
"It's okay." Jia Mu lowered her eyes: "It's all what I should do."
"My life is just a drag on people. In fact, I have told the child's father a long time ago that he could just buy a pack of rat poison and feed it to me, and our whole family would be happy." Li Qiuman sat on the chair and watched Jia Mu busy: "But
He refused. I also feel that I am very lucky and have picked a good man. Really, sister, if I am not ashamed, you are lucky to be able to marry the father of your child."
When Jia Mu heard this, she almost threw the quilt in her hand.
To be fair, Wu Pengsheng was really good to her before she got married. Every time they met, he would give her a gift, and he would also give her some money in private. Whenever she asked for anything, he would try his best to help. I remember that one winter, it was very difficult to buy vegetables and meat.
It was so difficult that Wu Pengsheng bought a basket and sent it to her.
It was precisely because he had done these things that Jia Mu was willing to marry and even more willing to help him serve his first wife.
Unfortunately, after coming here, I found that was not the case at all. Wu Pengsheng was polite to people outside, and he could joke with even those laborers who smelled sour, but he really had no patience for her.
"Now that you've changed, do you want to sit for a while, sister, or do you want to go back and lie down?"
Li Qiuman nodded: "My sister is quick at work. I was also fast at work, so I set up the stall. My father learned how to cook from me."
Listening to her words, Jia Mu always felt as if she was asking for credit. She casually praised her: "Sister, you are amazing. Without you, the Wu family would not be where it is now."
It's okay to suffer a little loss in words, as long as this woman doesn't torment her, she can just say nice things every day.
Li Qiuman was indeed delighted with the praise, and nodded solemnly: "Actually, I also feel that I am quite prosperous. You don't know, when I married into the Wu family, they didn't even have this yard, and the whole family lived in a small side room.
There was a curtain between us husband and wife and the elders. People who knew about it were laughing secretly. Later, life at home gradually got better. Unfortunately, I was unlucky."
Jia Mu secretly curled her lips in her heart: Not lucky!
"I really don't want to be a burden to others." Li Qiuman sighed: "But it has become like this, what can I do? I had discussed with the child's father before that I would simply find someone to take care of me and pay him monthly wages.
.Anyway, we don’t lack that at home.”
Jia Mu's heart moved.
"Outsiders are never as dedicated as our own people." She didn't think so, but it didn't stop her from saying nice things: "Sister, please don't say such things again in the future. Most people can't afford to hire people."
"I have dozens of taels of silver in my hand, why can't I afford it?" After Li Qiuman melted, he seemed to realize that he had made a mistake, and hurriedly reached out to cover his mouth, and then added: "Oh, I have a headache, what did you say?
I don’t even care, so don’t take it to heart and don’t say anything about it.”
Mother Jia's eyes brightened, she lowered her eyes, adjusted the quilt, and answered casually: "Since you feel uncomfortable, just lie down."
After walking out of the room with the dirty quilt in her arms, Mother Jia could no longer control the expression on her face, and the smile on her lips never fell.
She knew it!
It stands to reason that a woman will follow her father at home, and her husband will follow his son after his death. After she got married, she worked hard to raise three children, and her two sons have already married. There is no need for her to get married again. But she and Wu Peng had a child.
They met during her most difficult years...Wu Pengsheng helped her a lot, she couldn't just kick him away as soon as the matter was over, right?
Furthermore, every time they meet, Wu Pengsheng will give her some money and give her things. It is impossible for him to have no savings!
It's not that Wu Pengsheng doesn't have money to hire someone to serve Li Qiuman, it's just because he's stingy.
As long as she takes good care of the woman, she will have a better relationship with Wu Pengsheng after a hundred years. From now on, all the money in the family will belong to her.
This is much more money than her hard work outside... In Jia Mu's view, all the money earned by the whole family belongs to her, and she is willing to be more tired.
After that day, no matter what Li Qiuman did, Jia's mother worked hard without complaining, not even a word of blame, and she could not hold back from complaining to Wu Pengsheng.
However, while she is busy, she is also worried about her son at home.
After all, my son is still young, so he still needs to have someone around him who understands the cold and the hot, and can help him take care of the child!
In a blink of an eye, the day came when Zhao Qiaoxin gave birth. This time Chu Yunli only did some light work, didn't take anything to heart, went to bed early and got up early every day. She also ate a lot of good food, so the child was better than the day he was born.
It's more than a month late.
The aunt has lived here for many years and has already found a stable mother. She has even bought the food and supplies needed for the confinement period.
It only took two hours from the onset of the attack to the birth of the child. Chu Yunli did not suffer much, and the mother and child were safe.
The aunt was very happy holding the baby, and came to Chu Yunli: "Look, eating well makes a difference. The baby's face is so fat. The last time I saw such a fat baby was at Chen's house. They invited me to go
Help wash the baby, and the child is so fat. Then the Chen family’s daughter-in-law has done nothing since she was pregnant. She eats eggs every day and kills a chicken every ten days. She has been raising it like this for ten months."
Chu Yunli hugged the child and reached out to touch his face.
The child didn't get used to it very well and pursed her lips. She wanted to cry but didn't. She couldn't help but smile.
The aunt saw all this and asked, "Do you want to tell the Jia family?"
"Tell me." After all, he still took more than a dozen taels of silver from him. Chu Yunli reminded again: "Tell my second uncle that when the child is one month old, I will go to the Yamen to sign the deed. If he is really anxious, trouble
Please accompany me for a walk."
The aunt was surprised: "Are you in such a hurry?"
"Second uncle is a good person. I took the initiative to propose it, so he won't be in trouble." Chu Yunli was in a good mood: "The third bath is going to be a big deal. The money is in the box over there. Auntie, let's take care of the arrangements!"
The aunt felt that the young boss didn’t know whether he knew how to live, or he really believed in her. He asked her to buy many things, and she just had to pay the bill.
The money is in her hands. If she makes a false report, the money becomes hers. However, she can't do such a thing... She is really confused by people like the Dong family.
Chu Yunli raised her eyes and looked at her: "Is there anything else?" Thinking of something, she said: "I used to be the daughter-in-law of the Jia family, and I didn't go out much. Then I moved out a few months ago... According to the current rules, if I go
Yeah, that's what offends people. I've been here for more than a year, but I'm not familiar with the people in this alley. If you can't find anyone to help, then pay them how many days they have to work outside.
Add two copper plates."
The aunt waved her hands hurriedly: "No need, I still know a few people, just ask them to come and work, and take some leftovers later to thank you. Besides, you are living a good life now, and many people are willing to get close to you, just to give
They don’t want their wages.”
This is true.
At three o'clock in the bath, Jia Dalin was already able to go to the ground. After lying down for so long, he looked paler and was much thinner than before.
As the child's uncle, he will definitely come when the child's biological father is gone. And this is what Jia Mu means. The more she evades and hides, the more outsiders will talk about it.
Things have been going on for so long, they are more calm, and everyone may have forgotten what happened back then.
After the third bath, people who are in confinement are not allowed to go out. Chu Yunli also saw the nature of the aunt, so he handed over many things to her. It was the same today. She handed the child into the hands of the aunt: "It's done.
Just bring him in and don't let the child get into trouble. Jia Dalin, forget it, if my mother-in-law wants to see the child, let her come to the house to see it."
Zhao Qiaoxin's family didn't come, and they couldn't get back in time to send the news. Chu Yunli didn't waste any time and just invited Xi Niang to come and wash the child.
Washing was quick, and the child was brought back after a quarter of an hour. Also coming in was Jia Mu.
Mother Jia's eyes never left the baby. Chu Yunli took the child and she sat on the bedside. When the aunt went out to arrange things and only the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law were left in the house, she whispered: "Teke
You didn’t want to give birth at first, but now you don’t regret what you said?”
"I'm looking at the attitude of your Jia family." Chu Yunli looked her up and down: "Hey, I bought new clothes."
Mother Jia's already beautiful face became even brighter at this moment: "Your Uncle Wu personally took me to buy this. It cost a few dollars. There was also a bracelet bought together." She took out another box from her arms.
After opening it, there was a collar worn by a child: "This is our wish, for the child."
Chu Yunli could tell at a glance that the longevity lock on the collar was made of silver, and said, "I'm quite willing to give it up."
Zhao Qiaoxin never saw this thing from the beginning to the end. Even though the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law had deteriorated, Jia's mother still gave it to her. She must have given it to her in her previous life, and maybe it was even more valuable... It should have been given to her by Jia.
Dalin was stunned.
Listening to her tone, Mother Jia said: "I know you have complaints about me. But with this child, we will be inseparable for the rest of our lives. It was my fault that happened before... Don't care about me, take good care of the child."
, if you encounter any difficulties, remember to tell me."
It was impossible for Chu Yunli to encounter difficulties, and he would not go to her if he did. He didn't take these words to heart at all.
"Actually, even if it's wrong, I still think it makes sense." Jia Mu sighed: "With a child, it's not that easy for you to marry a good family. Your eldest brother is very down-to-earth..."
Chu Yunli interrupted her and said, "If you want to mention that again, get out of here!"
Jia Mu: "...I won't say anything anymore, why not!"
The child is growing up so well and she is really happy that her younger son has a baby. She doesn't want to think about quarreling on a day like today.
Jia Dalin just glanced at the child in the crowd. To be honest, he didn't really have any love for his nephew. If he didn't have children, he might pay more attention to him. Since he already has three children,
He doesn't even want to look at other people's children.
Therefore, seeing that Zhao Qiao didn't want to see him, he acted like an amiable uncle in front of everyone and quickly stood up to leave.
It is worth mentioning that the brothers’ sister also sent someone something, which was a pair of silver bracelets.
The bracelet is rough in workmanship, but it is solid sterling silver.
The eldest sister, Jia Damei, has always been very sensible. Seeing the difficulties at home, she sold herself to work as a maid in a wealthy family. Later, she was selected and became the master's housekeeper. She had several new sets of clothes a year and was paid monthly, but
The mistress was very strict and didn't allow her to meet anyone outside... and she had already drank Juezi soup when she was selected.
Therefore, only she herself knows whether Jia Damei's life is good or not.
After the third bath, Chu Yunli started confinement.
I knew that the house was inconvenient and there were not many guests coming to the house. The aunt mainly took care of her. Apart from feeling a little quieter than before, she didn't notice much difference.
On this day, Chu Yunli just woke up from her nap, and her aunt came in with soup. After watching her drink it, she whispered: "I heard something about the Jia family, do you want to listen?"
Chu Yunli turned his head to look at her, waiting for her next words.
The aunt looked mysterious: "Your eldest brother's wife is back."
Zhao Qiaoxin knew about this.
In her previous life, she was gone these few days.
The child was almost one month old at that time, but due to the weak energy brought by the fetus and the lack of good care of the child after birth, he had been very ill these days. Zhao Qiao was exhausted both mentally and physically, and had no energy.
"I'll be right back." Chu Yunli's face remained as usual.
The woman also lived in this alley, and her maiden name was Chen. Zhao Qiaoxin had met the Chen family before, but it seemed a bit disrespectful when they separated. The Chen family and the Jia family basically didn't talk to each other.
Chen Sanniang took the initiative to come to the door.
The aunt didn't know if her boss was willing to take the trouble to see the person, so she stopped the person at the door. When she came in, her face was speechless: "I said I came to visit you, but everyone was already at the door, and they were carrying a basket. It seemed like
With eggs in it.”
"Let her in!" It's inevitable anyway.
Chen Sanniang is twenty-five years old this year. She is wearing a pink silk shirt. Her waist is very thin. Her appearance is not very delicate, but she is also a little girl. After she walked in and saw Chu Yunli, she smiled before saying anything: "Speaking of which, my siblings and I are still
It’s the first time we’ve met.”
"Change the title," Chu Yunli emphasized: "I have nothing to do with the Jia family now, and I don't want to get married to your family."
"Don't be so raw." Chen Sanniang was not angry, and said with a smile: "I heard that you gave birth to a child, so I bought eggs specially to visit you."
"If it's for the children, I can accept it! But I won't take the things that are given to me." Chu Yunli looked calmly: "Giving things is a matter of personal communication. I don't want to have anything to do with your family.
, I don’t want to go to Jia’s house again in the future and take this egg back.”
Chen Sanniang was stunned for a moment: "I didn't expect my sister-in-law to have such a temper. This is so tough." She resumed her smile: "Then treat it as if I bought it for the child. You eat it first and make up for it later.
that is."
Chu Yunli said nothing.
The room was quiet, and Chu Yunli could sense that she was looking at him carefully.
"I heard that my sister-in-law has already remarried, why did she come back to recognize her again?"
Nowadays, it is hard to say how many times a woman has been married. Chen Sanniang's smile froze slightly: "Something happened to the man over there and he recently moved back to his parents' house. I heard that Dalin suffered a disaster before and is now recovering from his injuries.
I can't live. After all, he is the father of the child. We have been husband and wife for several years, and we can't really let go."
Chu Yunli was curious: "Do you still want to get back together with him?"
Chen Sanniang raised her eyebrows: "Can't you?"
"Okay." Chu Yunli said casually: "Take this man away and don't come out to harm others."
Chen Sanniang looked unhappy: "Actually, in addition to visiting you today, I also have a few questions to ask you."
Chu Yunli didn't even raise her head: "If you want to ask him about touching my room, it did happen. I was also responsible for the injuries on his body! I'm not afraid to tell you the truth. If I hadn't beaten him
He stopped, and now we have become a family, and this child has to call him daddy!"
Chen Sanniang's face turned darker: "Don't mention anything that didn't happen."
"Don't worry, even if all the men in the world are dead, I can't have anything to do with him." Chu Yunli shook his head: "You don't have to test me."
But it's hard for Chen Sanniang not to mind.
She had a few quarrels with Jia Dalin and returned to her parents' home angrily. When Jia Dalin came to coax her, his words were even more irritating, so she followed an aunt to get married elsewhere.
Her aunt didn't lie to her, that family was really nice. The family was much better off than the Jia family, but the man was not considerate at all, and often beat and scolded her... Now the man got drunk and got into a fight, and was beaten to death in the street.
She actually breathed a sigh of relief.
The man is the eldest son in the family. Before she came in, he already had two sons, and they are all grown up now. There is such a big age difference between her and the man, and she couldn't give birth to a child after she came in. She just asked herself to leave, brother.
The two of them did not treat her badly and gave her some money.
She is still so young, it would be unreasonable to stay in her parents' house for a long time, and she will definitely get married.
But a woman who has been married twice, no matter how good-looking she is, will never marry into a good family again. She might as well go back and live a down-to-earth life with Jia Dalin... After going out for a fight, she understood one thing, that is, men
It is unreliable, and in the end you have to rely on your own children.
Anyway, she already had a lot of money on hand, so there was no need to bother anymore. After seeing the child, she was even more reluctant to part with it. However, just as she was about to reconcile with Jia Dalin, she heard that Jia Dalin had touched Zhao Qiao's heart.
This is the first woman Jia Dalin has laid hands on since the couple separated!
Chen Sanniang is very concerned about this matter.
In her opinion, if this incident hadn't happened, Jia Dalin's feelings for her would definitely not have changed!
After this happened, if Jia Dalin didn't care about her that much, would the relationship between husband and wife be able to return to the past when she went back?
"He told me that he listened to his mother at that time, so he..."
Chu Yunli could vaguely guess her entanglement, and said with a faint smile: "In this life, there is no need to get to the bottom of everything. If you are more confused, you will be happier."
Chen Sanniang looked ugly: "You mean, Hua'er's father really has those thoughts about you?"
Chu Yunli: "..." Is it interesting to dwell on this?
