Volume 1: Farmer's Joy 010 Reaction

  Lian Tian'er thought that some people really didn't need to be polite, because they would take advantage of you. She raised an eyebrow and glanced at Lian Tian'er's red face, "Little girl, in the future, don't always come to my room without a reason. After all, you're a daughter-in-law. If I go in, that's fine, but if by chance you interrupt me and my husband being intimate, we wouldn't mind, but you would be...

  "You, you, you, mother, third brother, look at her!" Lian Tian'er's small face was red with anger, pointing at Fu Qiulian for half a day without saying a word, and she was about to cry out loud - this woman was clearly accusing herself of being unscrupulous and shameless!

  Fu Qiu Lian didn't bother to reason with her, if she continued to indulge them like this, in the end, this family would probably lose its own status. Although she didn't think she had to rely on this family, but being driven out and leaving voluntarily were two completely different things, weren't they?

  She rolled her eyes and stormed off, "This meal is really frustrating, why can't we just have a pleasant meal?" Behind her, Lian Qing's displeased voice followed, "Wife, you haven't eaten yet."

  "We won't eat anymore, it's better for both of us to starve to death."

  “……”

  Lian Qing smiled awkwardly, turned her head to meet Li's angry gaze, and lowered her head. "Mother, she has that kind of temperament, you also know, no, it's not intentional to say these things."

  "Yes, look at her, she's become so spoiled, never seen anyone be a daughter-in-law like this, no manners at all." Qian Shi rolled her eyes and then helped Bai Shi pour a bowl of soup, with a flattering tone in her eyebrows and eyes, "Mother, have a sip of soup to warm up, you shouldn't compare yourself to San Di Mei, she's still a child, and now that there's another one in her belly, being a bit spoiled is normal, mainly because, Mother, you don't usually argue with her, right?" The words were all about Fu Qiu Lian's spoiled nature.

  "Would I dare to argue with her?" Taking the soup from Lao Erjia, Li drank a mouthful and her eyes lit up, "Lao Erjia, did you cook this soup? Your skills have improved!"

  "Is it, mother? This soup is delicious, isn't it?"

  "It's delicious, I didn't expect you to not slack off these past few days." With a better mood, his words naturally became more pleasant, and he looked at Qian Shi with a slightly warmer expression. "Alright, since you've been taking care of feeding the pigs for the past few days, just help out in the main kitchen from now on."

  Should I ask her to help in the kitchen?

  Qian's wife was about to blow up with rage, if only she knew what she was showing off. Look, she got thrown into the kitchen. Qian's wife returned with a bitter face, and Lao Er didn't realize what had happened until he heard her account. He slapped her on the ear: "Are you the only smart one? Why doesn't your sister-in-law speak up, but you're jumping around like a monkey, showing off in front of people, losing my face."

  He lifted his foot again, "You won't speak, are you going to be sold? Did Eldest Brother's wife invite you or provoke you, why can't you get along with her?"

  "Look at how she treats her brother-in-law, does she have any demeanor of a wife? I'm the sister-in-law, what's wrong with me saying a couple of words to her?" Although she was slapped and kicked, Qian Shi still felt a bit resentful, muttering to herself, "I'm the sister-in-law, which family's sister-in-law can't say a few words to their brother's wife?"

  "This stupid thing! Just as he was about to kick again, a little round figure rolled out of the house, opening his arms like an old hen protecting her chicks. "Dad, you're bullying Mom again." Lü Ge, how did you get here? Hurry back inside!"

  "If I don't go back, then I won't go back; but if I do go back, you'll scold me."

  "Go back quickly, I won't hit you. Really."

  "Don't believe it." Lian Rong'er's chubby little face was full of doubt, staring at her father while checking her mother's injuries, "Mother, Mother, where are you uncomfortable? I'll go find a doctor for you."

  "I'm fine, Brother Wu, you should hurry back and study."

  "Are you really okay, girl?"

  "Really. Foolish child, when have I ever deceived you?" With great difficulty, Qian Shi coaxed Lian Long away and raised her head, carefully staring at Lian Wu standing in front of her, "Husband, can I get up now?"

  "You should be grateful that you have a good son, if it weren't for the sake of Rong Er, I would have to...” Lian Wu couldn't help but look at Qian Shi with some disgust, knowing that her own family had such a shallow person, but can't you just think before speaking and acting?

  What's wrong with you and Fu Shi?

  With a loud bang, he slammed the door and left. Qian Shi, who was sitting on the ground, listened to the sound of the door and her body involuntarily shrunk down. But after waiting for a while, confirming that Lin Wu would not come back, she finally got up from the ground with her hands and feet, patting her chest with lingering fear, what a close call!

  "Daughter, I brought some food over for you." Pushing open the door, Lian Qing saw Fou Qiulian sitting on the kang, her face sullen and her eyes downcast. Her two hands were ceaselessly tearing at the corner of the quilt, twisting it back and forth in a way that made Lian Qing pause, his mouth curving up slightly as a faint, almost imperceptible smile flashed across his eyes before quickly disappearing. He reached into his pocket and pulled out a pancake and a scallion, handing them to Fou Qiulian, "This is your favorite food, I specially saved two pancakes for you."

  "I won't eat." Fu Qiulian proudly tossed her head and said she wouldn't eat, then she really wouldn't eat!

  "But you'll go hungry if you don't eat, and there's a child in your belly too—" As soon as he mentioned the child, Fu Qiulian's eyes flashed with complexity again. She hadn't expected that in this life, she would become a mother so suddenly. But then she hesitated.

  Is this child really hers? Does she really want to leave it behind?

  Her mind was a mess, and for a moment she didn't notice that Lian Qing had handed her the scallions and pancake. The pungent smell of the scallions hit her straight in the chest, making her feel a wave of nausea wash over her like a stormy sea. She forced down the surge rising up her throat and glared at Lian Qing, "Take it away."

  "Girl, eat some more..."

  Vomit - the next moment, Fu Qiulian couldn't bear it anymore and didn't even have time to lean aside, her mouth opened wide, and everything was spat onto Lian Qing's body, the edge of the bed, the quilt, and Lian Qing's chest.

  "Daughter, what's wrong with you?" Lian Qing didn't show any disgust, but was startled. He didn't care about the dirt and stench on his body, stretched out his hand to help Fu Qiu Lian, but forgot that he still held a scallion and a pancake in his hands.

  As soon as she smelled this smell, she had already vomited a lot, and now she was even better. Fu Qiulian directly lay on the edge of the bed and almost spat out her bitter gall!

  "Daughter, daughter——"

  "You, don't come over here. And hurry up and get rid of the scallions." Damn it, she was allergic to two things in her past life: one was scallions, and the other was lard rendered from pork. Now these two things were combined, plus her current pregnancy, no wonder she didn't vomit.

  Almost vomiting bile, after a bout of struggling, Fu Qiulian's face turned pale and she lay on the other end of the bed, not wanting to move at all. Underneath, Lian Qing took a deep breath, bent down and resignedly cleaned up, half a moment later, he heard Fu Qiulian's voice as soft as a mosquito, "I'm asking you, how many months is this child?" Generally speaking, morning sickness shouldn't last after four months, right?

  "Three months have passed and you've even forgotten this?"

  Three months or so later, Fu Qiulian almost jumped up from the kang, "Why is a three-month-old child's belly so big, it looks like five or six months and it's all bulging out?"

  This point even Qing is clear, very calm eyes some caught crazy Fuzi Lian, "You eat so much, can your belly not be big?" Don't mention five or six months, if you keep eating like that, I'm afraid seven or eight months' belly won't be anything!
