"Second sister-in-law, I understand. I won't be afraid of her anymore. She did it on purpose." Wang Ying has become as fat as a pig since she was pregnant and fed herself with good food and drink. How could someone like her go on a hunger strike?
Gu Jingxiu thought through all this and made a decision in his heart.
Although she is an underappreciated daughter, she will never compromise on her life-long matters. She wants to learn from her second sister-in-law.
Gu Jingxiu's heart became much brighter. Taking advantage of the sunny weather today, she quickly wrapped up the bedding in the house to dry it.
…
At noon, Gu Jingqi came back from school.
When he walked to the door in a depressed mood, he was about to take out the key, but saw that there was no padlock on the door. Gu Jingqi's eyes instantly lit up, and he hurriedly opened the door and went in.
As soon as I arrived in the yard, I heard voices coming from the kitchen.
It was the second sister-in-law's voice.
There were quilts drying on the clothesline in the yard.
"Second brother, second sister-in-law, are you back?"
Gu Jingqi shouted happily, took a long step forward, and rushed into the kitchen.
Gu Jingxiu was choosing vegetables, and Lin Min was pouring oil into the pot on the kerosene stove. When she saw the young man who suddenly raised the door curtain, she smiled and said, "Jing Qi, school is over?"
When Gu Jingqi saw Lin Min's genuine smile, he raised his hand in disbelief and pinched himself, "Second sister-in-law, are you really back? Am I not dreaming?"
Lin Min was made to laugh by his actions, "I'm back."
Gu Jingqi's shoulders slumped, he raised his head and howled, "Oh my God, the hard days are over. My sister and I are finally alive and waiting for the dawn."
If it weren't for the difference between men and women, Gu Jingqi would have wanted to rush forward and give Lin Min a big hug.
"I'm going to see my second brother." He said and rushed out.
Gu Jingxiu hurriedly stopped him, "Second brother hasn't come back yet, and second sister-in-law said it might be evening."
As soon as Gu Jingxiu shouted, Gu Jingqi stopped again, looked at Lin Min doubtfully and asked, "Second sister-in-law, why didn't you two come back together? By the way, how is my second brother's leg?"
Lin Min waited for the oil in the pot to be cooked, put the green onions in, then poured in the chopped Chinese cabbage, potatoes and carrots, and started to stir-fry, "He is like a normal person now. Your second brother went to Shenzhen to discuss business.
After I received Jingxiu's page, I called him. He took a bus from Shencheng, which is far away from his hometown, so he couldn't come back until evening."
Gu Jingqi's face was filled with astonishment, "Second brother has already gone to discuss business? Are you recovering so well?"
I had a phone call with my second brother before, and I only said that I was getting better. I didn’t expect that my brother’s health would recover so quickly.
Gu Jingqi was moved and happy, and all the gloom in his heart during this period of time disappeared.
Lin Min looked at him and smiled awkwardly. She sent him away, "Jing Qi, go to that room and wait. We'll make braised noodles. It'll be ready soon."
"okay."
The kitchen was small, and Gu Jingqi's pestle was hindering the two of them from cooking. Gu Jingqi went back to the main room, turned on the stove, turned on the TV, and wiped the table.
He was so happy that he couldn't sit still and jumped back and forth in the yard, humming a song.
The braised noodles were quickly prepared, and Gu Jingqi hurriedly helped serve the food.
The three of them gathered around the table and ate. Gu Jingqi wolfed down the food and said vaguely, "Second sister-in-law, this is the most delicious meal I have eaten in a while."
Lin Min rolled her eyes at him, "Are you usually hungry?"
"I'm not hungry either. The key is that the house is very messy. When it's time for dinner, the ancestor in the house will yell at my mother and eat and drink. I feel uncomfortable and angry. How can I have food?"
Desire, plus something happened in the restaurant, ugh."
Gu Jingqi had conflicts with Wang Ying several times. He was his brother-in-law and he was his sister-in-law. When he tried to reason with her, she would not listen at all and would only yell and scold her. He could not scold her or take action, which almost made him depressed.
Fortunately, there is still a yard rented by my second brother where I can take refuge.
"Jing Qi, what do you think about Gu Jinghui?" After finishing the meal, Lin Min looked at him and asked tentatively.
She wanted to know Gu Jingqi's attitude.
"I don't think we should care about brother's affairs. Let him stay inside and let him reflect and reflect." Gu Jingqi curled his lips and snorted, "But I'm afraid he won't be able to stay long, and those few people won't do anything.
It’s a big deal, I’ll definitely release you after being detained for a month and a half.”
Lin Min smiled and said, "Listening to your tone, you are quite disappointed when he comes out?"
"No, I just think the punishment is too light and he doesn't know how to repent at all." Gu Jingqi really hoped that his eldest brother could stay in there for a longer time and have someone teach him how to be a good person.
Anyway, at home, it is impossible for him to change his character after so many years. If he is educated by the public, he might be able to turn over a new leaf. .??.
But even if he starts a new life, his wife won't be able to help her, and she will have to help him get back to his original shape within a few days.
Gu Jingqi felt tired when he mentioned this. He just wanted to graduate from high school and get out of here.
He looked at Gu Jingxiu who was clearing away the dishes and said to Lin Min, "Second sister-in-law, we can ignore it, but my sister's marriage must be decided for her, but she must not be allowed to marry Wang Hu. In this era,
Now, why don’t we change marriages?”
Marrying into the Wang family, with his sister’s temperament, shouldn’t she be bullied to death by Wang Ying’s mother?
"I told your sister to be tougher. With us here, she won't be forced by Wang Ying to be tied to the Wang family."
Lin Min said
Now, thinking that I was tied to the Gu family in the first place, I couldn't help but feel bitter in my heart.
If her family is determined to give up on her, no matter how stubborn she is, it is actually very difficult for rural girls to resist in such a matter.
She is lucky and has a new life.
Gu Jingxiu and Wang Hu have no feelings at all, and Wang Ying is still acting as a troublemaker in the middle. Once they do, it will be a tragedy.
"Second sister-in-law, I will never compromise on this matter." Gu Jingxiu's face was unusually firm, "I also want to find someone I like in the future, just like my second brother and second sister-in-law, it will be okay even if life is hard.
But I don’t want to make do with people.”
"You will encounter it."
Lin Min comforted her and then turned the topic to Gu Jingqi, "Jingqi, how are you studying?"
When it comes to studying, Gu Jingqi is quite confident, "I have a test this week. I have worked very hard this semester. I feel I have made great progress."
"You give us some credit and try to get into a good university."
Gu Jingqi promised firmly, "Second sister-in-law, I will do it."
After Gu Jingqi finished eating, he planned to go to school to review his homework. Before leaving, Lin Min told him, "Jingxiu and I will go to the hospital in the afternoon to check on the conditions of those people. We will pick up your second brother at the train station and come back together in the evening. Jing Qi,
We'll cut the vegetables for you, and you can cook some food for yourself."
"OK."
Mild food poisoning will be fine after a few days of treatment. It has been four or five days, and it should be time to be discharged from the hospital.
…
In the afternoon, Lin Min and Gu Jingxiu went to the county hospital together. When they arrived at the inpatient department, Gu Decheng was squatting alone in the dark corridor, eating steamed buns.
Lin Min and Gu Jingxiu felt uncomfortable seeing him like this. Gu Jingxiu hurried over and said, "Dad, why are you sitting here?"
