Chapter 20 Sometimes Men Are Also Very Realistic
The old Bai family has been unlucky recently. Some are sick, some are disabled, and some are dead. Nothing good has happened to them. If they don't eat something good to replenish their body, I'm afraid they will have no hope for the future.
Thinking of Bai Naihan, Jiang Wenxiu's eyes were full of sympathy.
She heard that Xia Yuhua, who used to run to Bai Naihan, has never come to see him now. Moreover, she also heard from the villagers that Xia Yuhua was having a hot relationship with someone from the Youth League Point.
Yun Qinghuan sighed upon hearing this, "Isn't it? If we don't make up for it, I feel like everyone in our family will fall down one by one. Fortunately, I shamelessly asked my parents for some money at that time. After seeing the doctor for my family, there was still some money left. I bought half a pound of meat to taste. It was all thanks to Wen Song. He was really good to my parents when he was alive. He sent meat and money to my parents from time to time to honor them. Otherwise, my parents probably wouldn't give me this money. Even my parents..."
"Alas!" She looked depressed, "I just hope they don't force me to remarry, otherwise how can I be worthy of Wen Song?"
Even though she knew that Jiang Wenxiu was a good person, Yun Qinghuan still kept a watchful eye and told her in a roundabout way that the Bai family was in a difficult situation. The money for buying meat was all that was left, and the meat she bought was not much.
She also pointed out that her parents gave her the twenty yuan not out of kindness, but because Bo Wensong had sent a lot of money to her parents' home before his death, and her parents gave it to her out of embarrassment.
Now her parents are forcing her to remarry, which is simply heartless.
Jiang Wenxiu listened to her words thoughtfully, turned around and comforted her, "Qinghuan, relax, life will definitely get better and better."
"I hope so. Now I just hope that my parents will not come to ask me to remarry. I will raise An'an peacefully and happily, which will be considered as Wensong's responsibility. Otherwise..."
She didn't finish her words, but Jiang Wenxiu already understood her worries, "Sister, don't be afraid. You are now a member of our Baijia Village. When your parents really come, we can't just watch them take you away. We will definitely stand on your side."
She didn't even call her by her name, but affectionately called her sister Yun Qinghuan. Yun Qinghuan wiped the non-existent tears from the corners of her eyes and looked at her with emotion, "Sister-in-law, thank you so much."
She looked at the meal Jiang Wenxiu was carrying, "Sister-in-law, are you delivering meals to Brother Guanglin?"
Brother Guanglin's full name is Bai Guanglin. He is Jiang Wenxiu's husband. The two have been married for many years and have a good relationship.
"Yes, he has been busy this morning, and he must be hungry now." Jiang Wenxiu's eyes were full of smiles when she mentioned her man.
It was obvious that she liked Bai Guanglin very much.
Yes, Bai Guanglin should be considered a good man in the countryside. When he married Jiang Wenxiu, he had a daughter Jiaojiao not long after. However, Jiang Wenxiu was small-framed and injured during childbirth. She did not get pregnant again for several years.
This was a big deal in the countryside where men were valued more than women. She only gave birth to a daughter but not a son, which was no different from a hen that could not lay eggs.
Bai Guanglin's family conditions were not bad in the village. At least he could have enough food every day. In addition, he was tall and good-looking. Many people in the village advised him to divorce and find a new partner. Even Jiang Wenxiu's mother-in-law advised them to divorce, which made Jiang Wenxiu, who was still in confinement, cry.
But fortunately, Bai Guanglin was still a man. He did not really divorce, and he always protected Jiang Wenxiu when her mother-in-law said something to her.
No matter what, she married the right person, which at least comforted Jiang Wenxiu, but she was still angry, so she named her daughter Jiaojiao to anger her mother-in-law and those villagers who said that daughters were money-losing goods.
She was determined to spoil her daughter to the sky.
If someone said that her daughter was a money-losing goods in front of her, she would scold them for a long time, and said that sons were money-losing goods. After all, if you raise a son, you not only have to raise him, but also work hard to save money for building a house for him, saving money for the betrothal gift to marry a wife, and raising children for him in the future, which is a life of hard work.
Unlike her daughter, she is a caring little cotton-padded jacket. Not only can she help her mother with housework, but she can also bring a betrothal gift to the family after getting married.
The villagers couldn't argue with her, so they said that she was a perverted theory, and said that she would only have one daughter in the future and no one would take care of her in her old age.
In short, everyone's words were unpleasant, but Jiang Wenxiu was also tough and scolded them all back.
Later, no one dared to say anything about Jiang Wenxiu in front of her. Even her mother-in-law was frightened by her temper and dared not say anything bad even if she was unhappy.
At that time, Liu Yuzhi told the original owner that Bai Guanglin was still a man. If he really divorced Jiang Wenxiu for this reason, even if some people didn't say anything in front of others, they would say that he was ruthless behind his back. After all, Jiang Wenxiu hurt her body to give birth to a child for him, and it was not difficult for her to get pregnant.
However, Liu Yuzhi also said that this was because Jiang Wenxiu was beautiful and smart. If Bai Guanglin really divorced her, it would be difficult to find someone better than Jiang Wenxiu.
After all, Bai Guanglin's family was not the kind of particularly rich people.
In fact, sometimes men are also very realistic.
Fortunately, Jiang Wenxiu was also very lucky. She suddenly became pregnant two years ago. This time she gave birth to a son, which made her mother-in-law very happy. She also said that a cheap name is easy to raise, so she named him Gousheng directly.
Although Jiang Wenxiu did not explicitly say how much she loved her son, it was obvious that she straightened her back.
Although she used to be eloquent, she still felt inferior to others and felt sorry for Bai Guanglin.
At this moment, the two of them walked forward and chatted, and soon they arrived at the field.
On the other side, Liu Yuzhi had just returned the farm tools, wiped the sweat from her forehead with the towel hanging around her neck, and prepared to go back to cook.
She was sweating all over, and the thin long sleeves could be wrung out of sweat, and the sun made her face red.
Zhang Yufen, who was next to her, also wiped the sweat from her forehead. At this moment, her mother-in-law had brought the meal over. She sat under the shade of the tree and planned to rest for a while and continue working after the meal. Seeing that Liu Yuzhi was about to leave, she said directly, "Auntie, are you going back? The lunch break is short, and it takes a lot of time for you to go back and forth. It's too rushed. Can you finish the work by then?"
If you can't finish it, the work points you earn will be far less.
Liu Yuzhi smiled, "My wife is sick, and my son is like that. There's no one at home to cook, so I have to rush back to cook. It's okay, I'll rush back soon. At most, I'll go back a little later at night, and I can always finish the work."
Someone nearby couldn't stand her being so nice to her daughter-in-law, and said sourly, "Isn't the daughter-in-law here to serve the mother-in-law? How can you serve your daughter-in-law every day like you do? You don't even let her go to the fields, and now you don't even let her cook. Be careful that you have spoiled an ungrateful person, and you'll cry when you remarry!"
