Volume 1: Farmer's Joy 026 Husband and Wife, Lian Qing Takes Action

  Fu Qiu Lian looked at him, suddenly calm down, and briefly explained the situation in a few words. Her eyes were dim, "You handle this yourself, I'm tired, need to rest for a while, you go out."

  Lian Qing furrowed her brow and stared at her for a while before suddenly saying, "Those words from the other day, were they said by your elder brother-in-law and father-in-law to you?"

  "What was that?" Fú Qiūlián was stunned for a moment, somewhat puzzled by Lián Qīng's evasive answer. This was supposed to be about Lián Tiān's matter, how did it suddenly shift to something eight hundred miles away?

  "It's what you said, the dike of a thousand miles destroyed by an ant hole. Those words." Lian Qing looked at Fu Qiu Lian calmly, with a complex persistence in his eyes, "Did Big Brother-in-law and Father-in-law say that to you?"

  "It was what I thought." Fu Qiulian also looked at Lian Qing seriously, she didn't want to probe further, if it's good then let's go with it, if not then let's disperse. "Lian Qing, you and I are husband and wife, I wanted to live a good life with you, take a look at our current situation, don't mention the small things, just this kind of scene, what do you think your future prospects will be?"

  Lian Qing's eyes were deep and calm, with a hint of eeriness.

  He suddenly looked at Fu Qiulian and said, "I'll take care of these things. I only ask you one thing: are you really willing to live with me, or do you still dislike me?"

  "What's wrong with what I'm doing? I've married you and had your child, can't I marry someone else?" She let out a soft sigh, looking at Lian Qing with a hint of a smile. "In the past, it was my fault, but from now on, we'll work together as husband and wife, for the sake of this family, for our children, how does that sound?"

  "——Alright."

  Lian Qing took a deep breath, his eyes filled with complexity as he looked at Fu Qiu Lian, nodding vigorously. "Don't worry, I won't let you suffer again." He wasn't someone without brains, and in the past, he had only indulged and spoiled this family because he thought it was meaningless. Even studying, in his heart, was just something his father had forced upon him since childhood.

  In other words, he still holds a grudge against Lao Lao.

  Having married his wife, how could he not be delighted?

  For two years, Fu's actions had thoroughly ground down his thoughts. He thought he only needed to read books and then leave this house far behind, but Fu became pregnant...

  She really wants to live a good life with herself.

  He has a wife and will have children——

  "Bookworm, he's moving, touch him, he's really moving -" Fu Qiulian's words made Lian Qing stunned, his rarely tense hands and feet tightened, "Can I touch?"

  "How can it be impossible? This is our child!"

  His hand was held by Fuyue Lian, placed on his lower abdomen through layers of clothing, soft and bulging belly skin. As soon as his palm touched the surface, he was kicked hard by the little one under the belly, and his whole body stiffened. Was this his child moving?

  "Look, this child is moving." Let him stare at Fú Qiūlián's clear and smiling eyes, where the spring water seems to be gurgling, as if washing his heart. Lián Qīng made an effort to suppress the emotions in his heart, grasped his hand tightly, and solemnly raised his head. His gaze was complex, but very serious, looking at Fú Qiūlián, "Don't worry, I will resolve everything well."

  Li's mind was very clear.

  Although he didn't say anything, he never thought of being taken advantage of by the other party. Before, he had no mood to care about these things, and he always thought that one day he would thoroughly leave this family. Now, Qing smiled slightly, carefully glanced at Fu Qiulian, and then suddenly remembered something, her expression changed slightly. "You quickly go back to bed, think of what you want to eat and tell me, I'll help you get it."

  "I'm a bit thirsty, can you pour me a glass of water." Fú Qiūlián glanced at Lián Qīng, although she had some reservations about his words "will solve everything", but after thinking for a moment, she decided to temporarily trust him, nodded and turned around to walk towards the side kang - she was really uncomfortable just now, so it's better to lie down for a while.

  Just as she lifted her foot, a low cry came from behind, "Don't move." Fu Qiulian's foot paused, and she raised an eyebrow, indicating, what else?

  "I'll help you." Lian Qing's tone was somewhat unnatural, but he quickly stepped forward to support Fu Qiu Lian, his voice with a hint of urgency. "Why are you walking so fast? Didn't you just say your stomach hurts?" He frowned in displeasure. "Don't you know that you're not feeling well? It's just a few pieces of cloth, what if you get angry and it affects the baby? Don't worry, I'm here for everything."

  "Yes, I know. From now on, the child and I will rely on you." Fu Qiulian leaned against Lian Qing's support as she lay down on the kang, watching him tuck in the thin quilt, carefully adjusting the corners of the bedspread, repeatedly assuring her that he would be right outside and would appear immediately if she called out. He looked anxious, as if afraid something might happen to her. She pursed her lips, reached out and grabbed Lian Qing's hand, "Bookworm, do you have a plan in mind?"

  Lian Qing's eyes sparkled slightly as he smiled at Fu Qiu Lian, "I'm still considering this matter, I'll talk to you when I've thought it through." After comforting Fu Qiu Lian, he stood outside the door for a while, listening to the soft breathing sounds coming from inside, knowing that Fu Qiu Lian had fallen asleep. Lian Qing smiled and gently closed the door, then headed back to the main house.

  Li was arranging the dried radish at the door, thinking that Lian had been working hard for several days and wondering if she should cut some to stir-fry with eggs. When she saw Lian Qing coming over, she hesitated for a moment but then put on a smile. Just as she was about to speak, Lian Qing took a step past her. Li's face fell, "Old Three, your father is sleeping now, if you have something to say, tell me first."

  Lian Qing didn't stop in his tracks, directly lifting the curtain and entering, facing Lian Old Father who was leaning on the kang smoking a water pipe, he immediately knelt down. "Father, your son is incompetent, has failed to live up to your expectations, and has let our family's hopes fall through, can no longer bring glory to our ancestors, so please scold me, I will not have any complaints."

  Lian Qing's words were not stingy with a single bomb, and Lian Lao's father was really blown up. He was shocked and anxious, and suddenly he sucked in a breath of air, causing him to cough violently. The sparks from the tobacco pipe fell on Lian Lao's face, causing him to shudder in pain. The tobacco pipe fell to the ground with a loud "crack" and broke into two pieces.

  "You stinky brat, what did you just say? Say it again and try me." Lian's father, not even bothering to tend to his scalded face, sat up straight with a fierce glare, bellowing at Lian Qing, "Do you dare to provoke me? Don't you know that I've been sacrificing for you since you were young, letting you study so that you can make something of yourself and bring honor to our family? So that others won't look down on us anymore! And yet you say you don't want to read books or take exams? Today, I'll beat you to death!" He habitually raised his tobacco pouch to hit him, but only realized it had broken into two pieces when he lifted his hand. Enraged and furious, he slammed the other piece of the pouch at Lian Qing, "The whole family has been frugal just to support your education, and now you say you don't want to take exams? You, who do you think you're accountable to? Today, I'll whip you to death!"

  Lian Qing is Lian Lao's weakness!

  One touch and it's on fire.

  Li walked in with a look of shock on her face, "What are you doing, Third Son? Even if he's wrong, can't you at least ask him clearly? How could this good kid suddenly not want to read books? Is there someone around him who said something to him? Otherwise, let's ask him again?" This was well said, and Qing couldn't help but think of Fu Qiu Lian standing beside her.

  Lian Qing shook off Li's hand and knelt down, his body straight as a pen, not looking at Li but only at Lian Lao Da, "Father, it's not that I don't want to, but there are people who don't want me to succeed, they don't want me to bring glory to the Lian family. I have no choice but to give up." He knocked his head on the ground, "I've come to realize that harmony in the family is what's truly important. Even if someone doesn't want me to have a good future, I'll just give it up."
