Chapter 138 Cold-blooded
Seeing Liu Qinqin in deep thought, Guan Lei continued, "I don't know if you've heard that Zhang Qingsheng is getting engaged to Zhao Yang's sister. Tell me, if I wasn't thinking about you as a friend, would I have said this?"
Liu Qinqin was stunned: "Really? I haven't heard of this. This world is really confusing. Men like this can become popular."
"Are you really stupid or are you just pretending to be stupid? These days, the harvest is not good and many people have to go out to work. They have government jobs, so do you think they are popular?"
Guan Lei added, "Also, there is no extra person in his family except his old mother. I heard she is also a very easy-going person. Just think about how comfortable you will be if you marry her."
"I understand what you're saying, but I can't stand the thought of his height."
"I've said everything I need to say. Think about it carefully." Guan Lei took a sip of water. "But, let me tell you, my mother-in-law has been preparing a dowry recently. It seems that she even told the matchmaker about the betrothal gift, which is more than 3,000 yuan. Also, Zhang Qingsheng took Zhao Lan to the county town to buy furniture last week, but it seems that they didn't make it."
"They've already come to this point, and you want me to rob them?"
"You are much prettier than Zhao Lan, and you are taller too. What are you afraid of? For the sake of their offspring, a man like Zhang Qingsheng would definitely care about the height of the woman. Besides, you can ask for a little less gift than Zhao Lan, isn't that enough?"
After chatting for a while, Liu Qinqin couldn't help but ask about the things between husband and wife.
She was very curious about these things.
Guan Lei didn't want to answer because she had never experienced the so-called happiness that others talked about.
Besides, Zhao Yang hadn't touched her for a long time.
She said the same thing: "Everyone feels differently about this. You will know after you try it yourself after you get married."
"Oh, I just want to know how you feel."
Guan Lei touched her belly and said, "It was fine before, but now I'm pregnant and I'm afraid it will affect the baby, so I haven't had sex during this period."
"Ah? You're pregnant? That's too fast."
Guan Lei smiled shyly and said, "It's mainly because Zhao Yang is more capable."
At this moment, Liu Qinqin's sister-in-law Wang Xiang screamed "Ah".
Liu Qinqin rushed out of the house and saw a basin of washed clothes dropped on the muddy ground.
She saw her favorite plaid jacket at first sight.
Her anger was like an overturned water tank, gushing out uncontrollably.
"You, what's wrong with you?"
Wang Xiang pulled 2-year-old Dandan aside and whispered, "I just went to hang out the clothes and Dandan accidentally knocked over the basin."
Liu Qinqin walked over, grabbed Dandan, and slapped him twice on the buttocks, cursing: "Why are you so disobedient? You have made my clothes dirty."
Dandan burst into tears and called for his mother.
Wang Xiang looked unhappy. She suppressed her displeasure and said, "Qinqin, I'm sorry. Dandan was really careless. He just tripped over the stool."
Liu Qinqin snorted and said, "What's the point of saying this? Help me wash it again."
"There's no water at home. I'll go get some water later and help you wash when I'm done."
"By the time you fetched the water, the daylilies would have gotten cold. Do you know that I have to wear this dress tomorrow?"
Guan Lei couldn't stand it any longer, so she walked over and pulled Liu Qinqin's hand, saying, "It's just a little dirt on it, it's not a big deal, just wait until it dries and brush it off."
"Let her wash." Liu Qinqin raised her head high and said arrogantly, "You go fetch water now."
"But mom and dad are not here, so there's no one to look after Dandan."
"I'll watch him, you go ahead. Come on, Dandan, go to the house with your aunt."
Dandan cried and didn't want to go, but Liu Qinqin forcefully dragged him in.
Guan Lei felt very uncomfortable.
She felt that her best friend was too harsh on her sister-in-law.
What made her even more uncomfortable was that Wang Xiang was used to being submissive and didn't resist at all.
She felt depressed when she thought that someone like Liu Qinqin was going to marry a respected middle school teacher.
If Zhao Lan hadn't been so excessive, she wouldn't have been like this.
Forget it, she has done what she should do. As for who she will marry in the end, it depends on their fate.

Dandan kept crying, and Liu Qinqin scolded him irritably: "Can you please stop crying? Why are you just like your mother, so annoying?"
Dandan cried and said, "Aunt is bad."
Liu Qinqin threatened: "If you cry again, you won't be allowed to sleep with grandma at night."
Maybe because there was a life in her belly, Guan Lei was a little uncomfortable and said, "Hey, don't be so rough, babies need to be coaxed."
As she spoke, she picked up Dandan and put him on the edge of the kang. Then she picked up the handkerchief on the table, wiped his nose, and said softly, "Dandan, don't cry. Auntie will peel some melon seeds for you, okay?"
Liu Qinqin yelled, "Hey, why are you using my handkerchief to wipe his nose?"
"Don't make a fuss. It will be fine after you wash it."
"gross."
"He's only two years old and he's your nephew. Why are you like this?"
Liu Qinqin glared at Dandan and said nothing more.
With Guan Lei's comfort, Dandan stopped crying.
But the child was born with the tendency to be restless, so he got off the kang after eating a few melon seeds.
Liu Qinqin originally wanted him to go play in the yard, but she was afraid of something unexpected happening, after all, farm tools and firewood were piled in the yard.
She carried Dandan off the kang, bolted the door, and said, "Just play on the floor."
Dandan began to rummage through the small drawer at the bottom.
Liu Qinqin didn't bother to care.
The drawer is already a mess anyway.
She ate melon seeds and said, "That Guan Youshuang is really amazing. She really wants to build a factory and become the factory director."
"It is under construction, but who knows if it will be successful? It might go bankrupt after just two or three days."
"If you ask me, your mother is just too kind. She smashed your house like that last time, and your mother just let it go? If it were me, I would definitely make their family uneasy."
"You don't know, she's a completely different person now, especially shameless. Do you want my mother to bother with that kind of person?"
Liu Qinqin threw a handful of melon seed shells on the ground and said, "I'm actually also confused. How could she suddenly change so much?"
"Who knows? I don't even want to talk about her now."
"Okay, let's not talk about it. By the way, it seems that Liu Pengcheng has really been arrested."
Guan Lei nodded and said, "I heard about it too."
"No wonder Liang Yuting walks with her nose in the air every day, so cocky."
Guan Lei sneered and said, "What is there for her to brag about? Does she really think that after breaking up with Liu Pengcheng, she can hook up with a man in the county? Just dream on."
"She herself has no chance to meet a man in the county town. The key point is that Guan Youshuang's man is in the county town, right? Do you think he will introduce her to someone?"
"Who knows?" Guan Lei was very annoyed.
For some reason, she felt that in her new life, she could not control anything except changing her marriage.
As the two were talking, Dandan suddenly screamed "Ah".
