Chapter 166 To help or not to help
In this family, only Zhao Mei looks like a human being.
Guan Lei felt that it was a good decision to give her the earrings despite the pain.
She said, "It's okay, Zhao Mei, you go in first, I'll finish washing and we'll talk later."
Zhao Mei glanced at her, sighed and went in.
Zhao Lan was sitting on the edge of the kang eating melon seeds. When she saw Zhao Mei, she acted as if she had seen an enemy and didn't say a word.
"He He is here." Zhao Hongcai smiled happily, "Come up quickly, come to Grandpa's side."
Because they have no grandson, Zhao Hongcai and Feng Zhuanxia still love this little grandson very much.
Feng Zhuanqin lifted her swollen face and saw He He. Her heart felt even heavier, her nose felt sore, and she began to wipe away her tears again.
"Aunt, what's wrong with you?"
Feng Zhuanxia sighed and said, "Alas, Xiaobing is sick, and your aunt is worried."
Zhao Mei guessed that it was not a minor illness, so she comforted him, "Don't worry too much, Auntie. I heard that our county hospital has a new expert who can treat all kinds of difficult and complicated diseases. You can take Xiaobing to see him when the time comes."
Feng Zhuanqin shook her head and said in a tearful voice, "It's no use. I've already been to the county hospital."
As he said this, Feng Zhuanqin wiped his nose, jumped off the kang, and said, "I have to go back."
"Sister, it's already night time, how can we go home in the dark?"
"Xia, don't stop me. I just came here to hide for a while because I was afraid that I would cry when I saw the baby. I still have to make breakfast for the baby tomorrow morning."
Feng Zhuanxia was anxious: "But it's late at night and the road is not easy to walk on. How can I feel at ease?"
Zhao Hongcai held He He in his arms, puffed on his pipe, and said slowly, "Let's go back tomorrow."
"No, I'm just afraid there isn't a ghost. If there really is a ghost, I'll be relieved." Feng Zhuanqin bent down, picked up her shoes, pulled out a thin headscarf from her pocket, wrapped it on her head, and walked out.
Feng Zhuanxia knew her sister's temper. When she got stubborn, no one could stop her, so she sent her out.
Zhao Mei originally wanted to send her aunt off, but He He suddenly had to go to the toilet, so she had to take care of He He.
Guan Lei was slacking off in the yard. She was thinking that she could just take half an hour to hang up the torn sheets and quilt covers and be done with it.
Feng Zhuanqin passed by her and said, "Pooh!", "You stinky bitch, you will die a miserable death."
Guan Lei was furious, but because Feng Zhuanxia was beside her, she held back and said nothing.
I cursed in my heart: You old bitch, you deserve to have no children or grandchildren and live out your life alone.
Seeing that the time was almost up, Guan Lei stood up and lifted the bed sheet with all her strength.
My God, she really underestimated this rag.
It's like a stone, I can't lift it at all.
Zhao Mei had just taken He He to the backyard to use the restroom and said, "Sister-in-law, wait a minute, I'll help you."
He He suddenly said, "Mom, my stomach hurts, rub it."
"Be good, let grandpa help you massage first." Zhao Mei carried He He into the house and put him on the kang.
She glanced at Zhao Lan and said, "Xiao Lan, my sister-in-law is pregnant. The bed sheet is so big. Didn't you think of helping her?"
Zhao Lan rolled her eyes at her and said, "It's not my bed sheets and quilt covers, why should I help her?"
"What are you saying? Aren't those sheets our parents'? Even if you wash them, it's your duty."
Zhao Lan jumped off the kang, threw the melon seeds in her hand fiercely on the ground, and shouted: "Why do you teach me a lesson? You want to show your filial piety now, right? If you want to wash it, go ahead."
"When I was at home, I was the one who washed the sheets and quilts. What did I say?"
"Humph, what do you want to say? You want to wash it yourself. We didn't put a knife to your neck and force you to wash it."
Zhao Mei was furious.
This sister is simply unreasonable.
"Stop arguing. You're making the house a mess every day." Zhao Hongcai yelled, "I think you're all just bored."
Zhao Mei said, "Dad, don't be angry. I didn't mean to quarrel with you. You said Xiaolan is going to get married soon, and I asked her to learn to do housework for her own good."
"I want you to say it? Do women have to do housework after they get married?"
"Why would someone marry you if you don't do housework?"
"Okay, stop talking. Isn't it just washing sheets and quilt covers? Why can't she wash them by herself? If you say so, I have to find a few people to help me carry the plow when I go to plow the fields?"
Guan Lei heard it clearly in the yard and was shaking with anger.
This Zhao Hongcai is really a piece of shit!
Don’t grow old. When you are old and paralyzed on the kang, I, Guan Lei, will not be afraid to take care of you.
She angrily pulled up a corner of the quilt and started wringing out the water.
Zhao Mei came out.
"Sister-in-law, let me help you."
"it is good."
The two of them hung the sheets and quilts on the clothesline together. Guan Lei said, "Thank you, Xiaomei. Why don't you come to my room and sit for a while?"
"it is good."
Guan Lei always wanted to give Zhao Mei something, but after thinking for a long time, she couldn't bear to give up her own jewelry.
She looked at Zhao Mei's clothes, which were still the coarse cloth shirt she wore a few years ago. It had turned white, probably because it had been washed so many times.
"I have a dress that I bought for my wedding. I think it will suit you better. If you don't mind, you can wear it."
Guan Lei opened the wardrobe and took out an emerald green suit jacket.
This was bought for her by her mother. She thought the color was too earthy and never wore it.
Zhao Mei was very happy. She took the clothes, touched them, and said, "Sister-in-law, this dress is too new. You can keep it. I don't want it."
"Try it on first to see if it fits. If it does, wear it. My belly is going to get bigger soon, and I won't be able to wear many clothes by then. It's useless to just leave it there."
Zhao Mei tried it on and found it was a little tight, which highlighted her waist.
She blushed and said, "I'm a little fat, this seems a little tight."
Guan Lei smiled and said, "How can it be tight? These clothes are all slim-fitting and show your waistline. If you put them on, I guarantee that Zhuangzhi will be unable to take his eyes off you."
"Oh, sister-in-law, what are you talking about?"
The two of them were chatting and laughing, which annoyed Zhao Lan who was eavesdropping in the yard.
This Guan Lei, when she wore her clothes during a blind date before, she stopped her and scolded her for a long time. Now, she is giving clothes to Zhao Mei.
How exactly is she inferior to Zhao Mei?
A chicken was foraging for food at her feet. She kicked it away angrily, and the chicken made a miserable croaking sound.
At this time, Feng Zhuanxia walked in and happened to see this scene.
"Xiao Lan, what are you doing? I kept this chicken specifically for hatching chicks, so don't kick it and cause any trouble."
"I think it's an eyesore, a shameless thing."
Feng Zhuanxia frowned. It is said that girls have to get married when they reach marriageable age, otherwise their tempers will become more and more strange. It seems to be true.
She sighed and said, "Okay, it's getting late, you should go to bed quickly. The matchmaker will probably be here tomorrow. If you have any other requests, just let me know then."
