Chapter 26 Thick-skinned

enough

Just as Huang was about to say something, she suddenly felt a pain in her stomach.

"Ouch... Ouch... Old Liutou... hurry... send me home quickly, I'm afraid... I'm going to give birth."

Mrs. Pei didn't think her behavior was fake, but she didn't want to talk to Mrs. Huang. If someone else gave birth to a child, she might still help.

So he turned around and went into the house.



Ah Li had dinner at home at noon and then followed the driver to Lu Qingling's house.

She hid the candied haws she bought today behind her back and shouted loudly before entering the yard: "Brother Ling, I'm here!"

Lu Yun walked out of the house, "Lili is here, it's too cold outside, come in quickly!"

"Yeah, brother Lu Yun, mother asked me to bring something to you."

The driver held an earthen jar in his hand and handed it to Lu Yun.

Lu Yun took it and opened it, the corner of his mouth raised.

"Mom is making pickles again! Lili will go home and thank your mother for me."

Ah Li smiled and nodded.

Mrs. Pei also asked Ah Li to bring some pickles from home for them to eat before, and she felt that this was the only skill she could do well.

After Lu Yun tasted it, he liked it very much. After A Li went home and told Pei, she made more for him.

Anyway, the most important thing they lack is vegetables and radishes.

After Ah Li entered the house, he saw Lu Qingling leaning on the couch, her face a little unhappy and not as energetic as yesterday.

She hurried over and asked, "Brother Ling, what's wrong with you? Are you feeling uncomfortable?"

Lu Qingling grinned and said, "Lili, I'm fine. Maybe I caught a cold due to the cold weather last night."

Ah Li stretched out his right hand and touched Lu Qingling's chest gently, "Brother Ling, get well soon."

Then she took out the candied haws.

"Brother Ling, this is the candied haws for you. We all have a bunch, and we bought a bunch for you. Eat it quickly! It's delicious."

Lu Qingling took the candied haws and sat up, as if her body felt a lot more relaxed.

"Thank you Lili, I didn't expect you to care about me so much."

He stretched out his hand and put the candied haws to A Li's mouth, gesturing for her to take the first bite.

Ah Li smiled sweetly and did not refuse him. He bit into one and held it in his mouth, his cheeks bulging.

Lu Qingling also bit into one and started eating it.

This was Lu Qingling's first time to eat candied haws. It was sour and sweet, which gave him a different taste in his mouth that was full of bitterness after taking medicine for a long time. It felt good.

In the evening, the family sat at the dining table to eat, including Ah Li's favorite braised pork and two other vegetables.

They sat together eating and chatting, and Mrs. Yan said to Mrs. Pei and the others: "Mom, Aunt Chunhua just passed by the door and chatted with me for a few words, saying that Mrs. Huang had given birth."

"Giving birth? So soon, she will suffer less. By the way, the boy she gave birth to is a girl."

"Aunt Chunhua said it was a girl. At that time, Mrs. Huang didn't believe it. She thought Aunt Chunhua had locked up her son and didn't even pay for the delivery. Aunt Chunhua was so angry that she just left."

"This Mrs. Huang has really committed an evil act. She sold her eldest daughter and now she has given birth to a daughter. I see that this girl will be born into a miserable life again."

"Who says it's not the case! What a nice girl, Zhaodi is also obedient and sensible. You see, our family Lili is also lovable. I don't know what she thinks. It's okay to want a son, but she should also be nicer to her daughter.

.”

"Forget it, let's not interfere with her family's affairs anymore. Just let Zhaodi escape from the sea of ​​misery."

Ah Li ate her rice, raised her head and looked at her mother and said, "Mom, I'm not Zhaodi, I'm Mingzhu."

"Li Li is right, Zhaodi is called Mingzhu now."

On the twenty-seventh day of the twelfth lunar month, Lin Changlu was going to give Mrs. Chen a boxing gift. They used to give it during the Chinese New Year, but always ended up being unhappy.

So I decided to give it away before New Year's Eve so that the quarrels during the New Year would not affect my mood.

Mrs. Pei thought that Mrs. Chen was Lin Changlu's biological mother anyway, and their life was much better now, so she added a box of snacks from Lan Mansion to the previous holiday gifts.

When the father and son went there, Mrs. Qin was cleaning the yard.

When you see them, you know they are here to deliver something.

A fake smile appeared on her face, "Second brother is here! Come inside and sit down."

When you greet them into the house, you stare directly at the things they bring.

Lin Changgui, his son, daughter-in-law, and grandson had also returned from the county, and were sitting in the house, cracking melon seeds and warming themselves by the fire, chatting.

"Mom, you are so precious! My second brother is here."

When everyone in the room heard this, they all looked towards the door.

Mrs. Chen said with an indifferent look: "You are an unfilial thing. Put your things down and leave quickly."

Uncharacteristically, Ms. Qin tried to persuade Mrs. Chen, "Mom, my second brother is here, and I must be thinking about you. Why don't you let me come in for a drink of water?"

Mrs. Chen was also a little confused about Mrs. Qin's abnormality. She didn't know what she was going to do, so she didn't say anything else.

Lin Changlu and his son didn't want to stay any longer. They entered the house and put down their things and were about to leave, but Qin stopped them and pulled them to the stool.

They couldn't argue with Mrs. Qin, so they had no choice but to sit down.

"Second brother, drink water, drink water, you have got a lot of things this year."

Lin Changlu replied dumbly: "It's all prepared by Xiuzhi."

"Second brother, I heard that the new Lu family is getting along well with you."

"No, I have a good relationship with Lili."

"Hey, isn't that the same thing? I heard that the Lu family sent you some fine silk and satin materials some time ago."

"That was given to Lili by Master Lu. I plan to make clothes for her when the time comes."

"She, a little girl, needs to use silk and satin materials to make clothes. Isn't that a waste? It's like this. Our eldest son is going to take the scholar exam next year. He doesn't have many good clothes. Can you use some cloth to make him a dress?"

"

Lin Errong was speechless when he saw Qin's shameless look, so he rushed to speak: "Auntie, my Sanrong is going to take the exam next year. With your reminder, we really have to make him some good clothes."

, maybe it’s not enough points.”

"Why do you, a junior, get in the way when we adults are talking?" Mrs. Qin rolled her eyes at Lin Errong and said.

Lin Changlu didn't know what his sister-in-law had planned.

He stood up and said: "Brother, sister-in-law, mother, I have something to do and I have to go back to work, so I will leave first."

Lin Changgui didn't expect Lin Changlu to leave like this. He thought that Lin Changlu was willing to sit down because he wanted to bow to him first!

After all, the brothers haven't spoken to each other for a year or two.

"Let him go, you too, you just need that little thing! Is it necessary to lick your face and ask him for it?"

Lin Changgui felt that he had been disrespected, so he immediately picked up the teacup on the table and threw it to the ground.

Mrs. Qin was also angry and started to beat me, "Who am I for, but for Dabao? I don't know that people don't take you as an elder brother seriously, so what's the use of you trying to fight against me."

Lin Changlu paused before walking out of the courtyard.
