Qin Huairu was about to refute when she heard Jia Zhang's words, but with a look of resentment, her throat seemed to be blocked, and she couldn't say anything.
That night, Qin Huairu lay on the bed tossing and turning, angry and hungry, unable to sleep.
She always thought that Banggeng's resentment towards her was because of that slap in the hospital meeting that day. She always thought about the children and forgot about them after a few days.
However, after so many days in a row, Banggeng is still like this. He is only close to Jia Zhang and treats her mother like an enemy.
As for her vicious mother-in-law, not only did she not mediate, but she also deliberately acted in front of Banggeng.
Everything she says and does tells Banggeng how great her grandmother is and how shameless her mother is.
Unfortunately, she has no way to solve this problem yet. She has been at the steel rolling mill all day long, and when she comes back at night, she has to sew and mend things for her family.
She really doesn't have any extra time to educate the gossips, and besides, Jia Zhang is so eager to sow discord anytime and anywhere.
Maybe she coaxed Banggong with her front legs, but her back legs were destroyed by Jia Zhang. After all, people have a whole day to stay with Banggong.
Qin Huairu couldn't figure out why Mrs. Jia Zhang came to sow a wedge between her and Banggeng when life at home was so difficult now.
Is it really so important to have absolute say in such a family?
She just wants to live a good life, why is it so difficult?
She was the eldest in her natal family. She had done the most work since she was a child, but she also received the most beatings and scoldings, which made her want to get married and escape from that home.
I finally stayed away from my mother's family and married into the city. I thought I would live the life I wanted from then on, but unexpectedly I just walked out of the wolf's den and into the tiger's den.
Now I am finally working on my own to make money, and I even got the right to control my salary after arguing with Jia Zhang, thinking that I have finally made it through.
But I never expected that Jia Zhang, who had suffered a defeat, would be so cruel and use sticks to hurt her. This scheming is really too vicious.
But such a vicious old woman and such a family were like a cage, binding her deeply in the middle. She had no way to escape...
But He Yuzhu stayed there until the last light in the courtyard went out, then quickly got up and started to dress up.
Today is the first day that the steel rolling mill resumes work, and it is also the day when he and his "sister" Liu Lan have made an appointment to meet after the new year. He has been waiting for this moment for a long time.
Although they had met during the day and knew that she was pregnant, it was precisely because of her pregnancy that He Yuzhu was worried.
He was very worried that Liu Lan would never see him again, after all, her purpose of "borrowing seeds" had been achieved.
But if he can no longer meet her as his "brother", He Yuzhu doesn't know how to support his "brother" Liu Lan in the future.
Although he and Liu Lan are colleagues and get along very well, it is inappropriate to show excessive concern, let alone additional funding.
Liu Lan is different from Qin Huairu. She is not the kind of person who has no bottom line because of poverty. If she is short of money in the future, she may come to the pigeon market again to look for opportunities.
Not to mention that she is a pregnant woman, even if her health is fine, the people in Pigeon City are so mixed that He Yuzhu is really worried that she will be deceived and bullied.
Based on this mentality, He Yuzhu rode his bicycle very fast. It usually took him ten minutes to reach the pigeon market, but this time he arrived in less than ten minutes.
Perhaps it’s because the Chinese New Year has just ended, and everyone has no food left at home, and there are still more than ten days before customs payment, so today’s pigeon market is particularly lively.
He Yuzhu searched for a long time in the crowd. For a long time, he thought Liu Lan had not come today, and then he found her figure in a dark corner.
At this time, she was huddled in the corner. Maybe it was too cold, so she breathed into her hands from time to time.
At this time, He Yuzhu's mood instantly improved. His "sister" was here, and it seemed that he could continue to take care of her as his "brother" in the future.
"Sister, are you hiding here? You've been waiting for a long time..."
As soon as Liu Lan heard this voice, she was extremely excited. This "brother" was a noble person in her life. He not only helped her make money, but also gave her life-long support.
After waiting in the cold wind for a long time, she thought that the person would never come, and she was secretly sad, thinking that the person had forgotten her.
How could I not be excited when I heard this familiar voice?
She quickly stood up, patted the dust on her butt with her hands, then put her hands into her sleeves and said with a smile:
"Brother, I thought you wouldn't even come today..."
"How could it be? Didn't we agree to meet today? Look at how cold you are. If I had known you had given me the key last year, I wouldn't have wanted it.
It would be great if you take it in your hand and go directly to the warehouse to wait for me. It’s too cold to wait outside in the dark sky..."
As he spoke, He Yuzhu naturally took the other person's hand and pulled her toward the warehouse. The other party only struggled slightly and followed him.
As soon as the two of them entered the warehouse, He Yuzhu closed the warehouse door, shutting out the whistling north wind and the dim street lights.
After a short period of adaptation, He Yuzhu was able to see the nervousness and shyness on Liu Lan's face through the night vision function obtained through rebirth.
He Yuzhu knew that Liu Lan could not see anything at this time. After all, there was no electricity in the warehouse and he did not turn on the flashlight.
He didn't plan to turn on the flashlight. He could see Liu Lan's expression anyway, but Liu Lan couldn't see his.
After a short period of silence, He Yuzhu transformed into a black-hearted boss who exploited the working people and spoke first:
"Sister, no one is helping me sell flour during this annual holiday. The flour at my place is piled up like a mountain.
How many pounds do you plan to buy today? Tell me the number and I will arrange the goods for you tomorrow..."
When Liu Lan heard this, she immediately panicked.
Ever since she found out she was pregnant, she has been thinking about what reasons she should use to refuse to help her "brother" sell flour.
Although this is her first pregnancy, she has heard people say before that pregnant women must have a regular schedule and must not stay up late.
The first is that staying up late is harmful to the body, which will affect the health of the mother and the child in the womb.
The second point is that if a mother stays up late, the child she will give birth to will have a reversed day and night schedule, which is difficult for adults to take care of, and is not good for the child's development.
What's more, pregnant women really shouldn't do heavy physical work like carrying flour, especially since she has just been diagnosed with pregnancy, so she needs to be even more careful.
But Liu Lan was worried that if she told the other party that she could not continue selling on behalf of her because of her pregnancy, it would affect the delicate relationship between the two.
When they met for the first time, "brother" knew that she was a girl. As long as she dared to say that she was pregnant, "brother" would definitely guess that the child was his.
On the one hand, she was worried that with her "brother's" intelligence, he would figure out that she was deliberately "borrowing seeds."
This is a humiliation for any man. If the other man gets angry and asks questions, she, a woman, really has no face to answer.
