Good Fortune Arrives at the Door of a Rural Doctor's Daughter

  Fu Qiu Lian was not surprised to see Qian Shi being taken away by Lian Wu, but what made her angry was that no one from the Lian family came forward to intervene or even offer a word of consolation afterwards.

  In their eyes, is it natural for women to be beaten?

  Look at Lian Wu's family, those few kids, they clearly know their mother is being beaten, but which one of them says anything? Not to mention not understanding things, the eldest, Lian Qiang, is already eleven years old.

  Even the youngest Lian Kang is already six years old. He says he understands, but if he doesn't understand, wouldn't he be indifferent even when his own mother gets beaten?

  This can only prove one thing: Qian's beating is normal, so normal that the women in this family think it's natural for a woman to be disciplined by her own man!

  "Daughter, why are you eating so little?" Lian Qing looked at Fu Qiulian with worry in her eyes, mainly because Fu Qiulian had been controlling herself a lot lately and it was obvious that she had lost more than one circle of weight just by looking at her!

  She's still got a kid in her belly, can she hold on?

  It's strange if Lian Qing is not worried.

  Finishing the last mouthful of rice porridge in her bowl, Fu Qiulian slammed down the bowl and glared at Lian Qing with a bad temper, "I'm full." Just thinking about these annoying things makes me full, why eat?

  "Girl, girl——"

  Watching Fuyu Lian turn around and walk out, Lian Qing felt a bit anxious. How could she only drink porridge and not eat buns? Behind her, Lian Tian'er curled up her mouth, "Third brother, you're in charge of her. Look at her, always putting on airs for who knows who, really thinking she's some kind of princess or something."

  Lian Qing furrowed his brow, displeased, and raised an eyebrow. "Tian Er, she is your third aunt. I hope there won't be a next time." No matter what, Fu Qiulian was his wife; if she lost face, how could he gain from it?

  "What's with Third Aunt? Once Third Brother passes the imperial examination, Mother said we can divorce her and let her cry then."

  He looked at her slowly, his eyes gradually deepening, with a hint of flames flowing in his star-like eyes. He took a deep breath, his face solemn, as if speaking to Tiantian, yet also to the whole family, and even to himself, "Tiantian, never mention such things again. As a man, one should stand tall and upright, as the saints have said, 'A wife who is not discarded even in poverty' - I will absolutely never divorce my wife and remarry."

  "Third brother, you——" Lian Tian'er felt a bit uncomfortable and thought that she had been slapped in the face by Lian Qing's words. What did he mean? She had only casually said something, but looking at him now, his eyes were welling up with tears. He turned his head and looked at Li Shi with a wronged expression. "Mother, look at third brother." With a stomp of her foot, Lian Tian'er pitifully sought help from Lian Old Master, "Father, third brother is bullying me."

  Lian Lao looked at Lian Qing and frowned, "Third brother, Xiang'er didn't do it on purpose, she's still young, wait until she's two years older..."

  Next to him, Lian Fei let out a strange laugh, "Dad, she's already thirteen, and Eldest Sister was married into our family at the age of thirteen too."

  "Even if you're not looking for death, which side are you on?"

  "Mind your own business."

  Lian Fei and Lian Tian'er are twins, with Lian Tian'er being only half a column of incense older than Lian Fei. This is also the main reason why Li Shi can stand firm in this family as a second wife, even though the original wife has left behind three sons.

  Someone gave birth to a pair of twins, and they're even boy/girl twins!

  Unfortunately, the twins born to the Li family were probably enemies in their past lives. This life, they became siblings and were destined to be at odds with each other. From a young age, as long as Lian Nian said something, Lian Fei would definitely oppose it. As long as Lian Fei wanted to do something, Lian Nian would use all her strength to refute it. However, there was an exception - when it came to dealing with Fu Qiu Lian, the siblings were unusually united and presented a unified front against outsiders.

  This made Lian'er first be scolded by Lian Qing, then not get any support from Li's family, and again be ridiculed by her own brother. Her face fell, she slammed the chopsticks in her hand, "I'm so angry, I won't eat anymore." She said as she ran out quickly.

  Lian Qing sat on the table with his eyebrows furrowed. Until Lian Tian'er ran far away, he lifted his eyelids and looked at Lian Laoye and Li Shi, who were sitting in the main seat, "Dad, Tian'er is not young anymore, you should teach her well, otherwise how will she get married in the future?"

  Mrs. Li's face turned red with anger, and she glanced at Lian Laotou beside her with a faint smile. "Third Brother, you said that, but your sister still has these brothers, right? You're about to take the imperial examination, and when you pass, our Sweetie will be the younger sister of an official. Who would dare look down on her or bully her then?" As she spoke, Mrs. Li turned her head to help Lian Laotou pick some dishes. "Husband, you evaluate this reasoning. Although I haven't read many books and my knowledge is shallow, what he said just now wasn't wrong, was it?"

  "Hmm, that's not wrong either, but what Lao San said also makes sense." Lao Ye started again with his usual tone, nodding his head and saying in a somewhat ambiguous tone, "Tian Er is a girl, she'll get married sooner or later, you'd better teach her some discipline. Don't let her lose face for our family after she gets married."

  "Yes, I know." Li clenched her teeth, almost breaking the chopsticks in her hand - she should have gotten rid of these three things a long time ago, and killed them off at the beginning.

  Are they just growing up and doing what's right with themselves?

  Actually, Li thought that when she married into the family, even the youngest Lian Qing was already 11 or 12 years old. In ancient times, children were sensible from an early age, and poor families' children had to take care of themselves early on. Moreover, Lian Qing was clever since childhood, so what could a weak woman like her possibly scheme about?

  After finishing dinner, Zhou Shi and Qian Shi cleaned up together. Fu Qiulian made a symbolic run to the kitchen, grabbed a rag and wiped down a couple of times, too lazy to look at Qian Shi's gloomy face as if she had lost millions. She shouted to Zhou Shi, "Sister-in-law, I'm heading back first, you take your time, see you tomorrow."

  It's not that she's lazy, it's just that this kitchen is too small, and with the three of them standing there, they can't even turn around. And look at her washing pots and dishes, squatting on the ground with a five or six month belly?

  What if I didn't step on it steadily and fell?

  There is another reason why Fu Qiulian dares to be lazy, and that is because of the original host. Although the original host was a bit gluttonous and lazy in the past, she never skimped on food and expenses at home. Old Master Fu doted on his daughter, and Big Brother Fu spoiled his little sister, so they always thought of sending her the best things to eat and use. But apart from eating herself, didn't most of it end up in the mouths of the Lian family members?

  In the past, Fu Qiu Lian was foolish and didn't understand these things. She took things but didn't even take care of her husband properly. Behind his back, she became a lazy and gluttonous woman. It's as if the whole family wanted to get together to divorce her.

  Fu Qiu Lian felt stupid and wronged just thinking about it.

  Throwing money into the water can still make a splash, feeding things to dogs and even wagging their tails twice to please them, what have you gained from this family?

  It was midnight when Fowei Lian woke up in pain.

  She has cramp in her leg!

  She was gasping for breath, her right leg numb and paralyzed with pain, as if ants were gnawing at it from the inside. Tears of agony streamed down her face, but when she glanced over at Lian Qing, he was still muttering to himself, "Women and petty men are hard to raise indeed." So, while she had been suffering in silence for half a day, he hadn't even noticed?

  Sleep when you should sleep, eat when you should eat.

  Still think she's hard to raise?

  I guess the kid isn't in his stomach then?

  Fu Qiu Lian's anger ignited, she lifted her foot and kicked Lian Qing on the bed, "I'll make you difficult to raise as a petty person and a woman, I'll make it hard for you to be raised, I'll kick you to death, kick, kick, kick..."

  At this time, in the middle of the night, Lian Qing and Lian Xiu were kicked to the ground, and a sound similar to killing pigs came from the west wing. A woman nearby struggled to turn over, rubbed her sleepy eyes, got up from the kang, looked at Lian Qing's painful face with surprise, worry, and concern, "Husband, why are you sleeping on the ground? Is the kang not comfortable? Or... or... Wuhu, husband, I know you're good to our mother and son. To let us sleep more comfortably, you'd rather sleep on the ground yourself. Husband, you're too good to me. Don't worry, from now on, I'll tell the child that you have a father who loves you the most, he sleeps on the ground for your comfort, just in case it's hard on you."

  Underground, Lian Qing's face turned black and white, white and black again, as if he wanted to shout loudly, "I'm not sleeping underground, I was kicked down here!" But Fu Qiu Lian's words seemed to have someone covering his mouth, making him unable to utter a single word! Under the dim light, Lian Qing's face was incredibly vivid, almost comparable to a seven-color palette!
