Chapter 274 Yuan Hong'er Returns to Her Mother's Home 2
"Okay, okay, stop crying. It's not a big deal. It's all thanks to Xiaoyu helping me treat my illness. I'm much better now."
The old lady took Zhao Huanyu's hand and introduced them to them.
Zhao Huanyu finally had a chance to talk to Yuan Hong'er and called her aunt sweetly.
Yuan Hong'er didn't recognize her and looked at the elder lady in confusion: "This is..."
"It's your second sister's little niece, her name is Xiaoyu. Although she is young, she has been studying medicine since she was a child. She saved my life. She is my lifesaver!"
The old lady smiled happily. She was very happy that her eldest daughter could come back to see her today, but she was a little regretful that she did not see her two little granddaughters.
"Thank you so much, Xiaoyu. Oh, I'm really... unprepared for this..."
Yuan Hong'er wanted to take something out of her body and give it to her, but she had nothing on her body. Her face was very embarrassed and she didn't know what to say.
Zhao Huanyu saw her embarrassment and said hurriedly: "Thank you, aunt, no need to bother. My in-laws just gave me the New Year's money."
Speaking of new year's money, the old lady thought of the silver bracelet Zhao Huanyu gave her, and her face became even more embarrassed.
At the same time, Yuan Hong'er also discovered the bracelet on her mother's hand. She knew her parents' family situation and it was impossible for her mother to have such a big bracelet, but now the bracelet was so bright on her wrist.
The old lady explained with some embarrassment: "This kid Xiaoyu gave it to me."
Only then did Yuan Hong'er take a serious look at Zhao Huanyu. No matter what she was wearing or her temperament, she didn't look like an ordinary country girl. Moreover, this girl was good-looking, with snow-white skin and delicate facial features. She looked like she had stepped out of a painting.
It looks like a fairy coming out.
For a time, Yuan Hong'er felt even more fond of her niece, and took Zhao Huanyu's hand to thank her.
Zhao Huanyu had heard this kind of talk many times, and she had a smile on her face, but she felt nothing in her heart.
But looking at this Aunt Hong'er, she is much older than her aunt Qing'er. Not only older than her aunt, she is even older than the wives of the first and second senators. It seems that she has been tortured all year round and forced to do hard work by her family.
Heavy life.
The old lady also noticed the changes in her eldest daughter. Thinking that her son-in-law was still outside, she didn't say much, but her eyes secretly turned red.
She remembered that day when her second daughter's family came to see her for the first time, her second son-in-law also hurriedly followed her. In order to treat her, he even bought a cart of charcoal himself.
But the eldest son-in-law didn't even want to come in to see her, and the differences between people were immediately apparent.
She took her daughter's hand and asked softly: "Is Dongzi okay with you?"
These words instantly made Yuan Hong'er freeze. She didn't know if her current husband was good to her.
In the first year or two after they got married, her husband naturally had nothing to say to her. But as she continued to be unable to give birth to a son, and her parents-in-law kept speaking ill of her and their two daughters in front of her husband, her husband's attitude towards her deteriorated day by day.
Not as good as one day.
Although she hasn't reached the point of taking action yet, if she says one more word to make him dissatisfied, he will glare at her angrily, as if he is going to hit her the next moment.
Thinking of this, she pursed her lips, lowered her head to cover the tears in her eyes, and said, "Okay, pretty good."
When Zhao Huanyu saw this, she knew that she was not doing well, but as an outsider, she couldn't say much, so she continued to prick her own needles.
Mrs. Yuan, as someone who had been there, naturally saw her daughter's reluctance, and was about to say a few words to comfort her when Yuan came in.
"Sister, I just went to the kitchen to make hot tea. Are you and your brother-in-law very cold on the way? Have a cup of hot tea to warm yourself up!"
Yuan held a bowl of ginger tea in her hand, and after coming in, she stuffed it into Yuan Hong'er's hand very enthusiastically.
Yuan Hong'er looked at her sister whom she hadn't seen for a long time, and saw that she had a very sincere smile on her face. Her skin condition was countless times better than hers. There was obviously a two or three year age difference between the two of them, but she was much older than her, and her skin was darker and brighter.
It's easy to catch up with the old lady in a few years.
Just by looking at her sister's appearance, she knew that her sister had lived a good life these years and her brother-in-law was a caring person.
"It's better to be my younger sister. After giving birth to three sons in a row, I can still hold my head high in my husband's family, unlike me..."
She opened her mouth with some sadness, then realized that what she said was inappropriate, so she quickly shut her mouth.
"Oh, sister, what are you talking about? The head of my family and I have been talking about having a little girl! What a great girl, obedient, sensible, and considerate of others. Look at our Xiaoyu, she is the best girl in the family now.
She is promising, and our family's life has become easier, all thanks to her! Sister, don't always think about having a son, your daughter is also the flesh that you shed, and they are all the same."
Yuanshi really thought so. If Zhao Huanyu hadn't said before that she didn't recommend having a fourth child, she would have really wanted to have another baby and try to see if she could have a little girl.
What she said was sincere and not like she was pretending at all, but Yuan Hong'er still felt uncomfortable listening to it, and said: "Second sister, you are a full man and don't know a hungry man. You have given birth to three sons in a row. In your husband's family,
I've gained a firm footing, but my stomach hasn't moved, and I've been anxious to death all day long."
This was what Yuan didn't like to hear the most, so she immediately replied: "Sister, that's not the case. Even if I give birth to three daughters, I will not be bullied by my husband's family. My mother-in-law said that both sons and daughters are
Same thing, and now the most favored one in the family is my little niece. My mother-in-law talks about how good my daughter is every day, and she keeps talking about how great it would be if my three little furry monkeys were all daughters..."
"Sister, you have been thinking about having a son all day long, and over time it has turned into a heart problem. When it comes to having a child, you have to let it happen. You may get pregnant over time, but the more anxious you are, the more useless it will be."
Yuan Hong'er retorted: "How can I do it if I'm not in a hurry? My parents-in-law have been talking about having a grandson every day. I haven't done anything in these years. Even my two daughters have been bullied. If I can't conceive again, I won't know this."
, how should we live our lives..."
As she spoke, she began to wipe away her tears. She knew that her mother was still ill and that today was the Chinese New Year, but she couldn't control her tears.
When the old lady saw that her eldest daughter had suffered great grievances and came back to her parents' house to cry, her heart ached so much that she asked anxiously: "It's not up to you to decide whether to have a child or a daughter. When your parents-in-law make things difficult for you,
, Dongzi won’t help you?”
"He helped me at first, but now he thinks it's my problem that I can't give birth to a son. He's not as kind to me as he was at the beginning. He doesn't even have a good look towards my daughter. Originally, he didn't even want to come with me when I went back to my parents' home today.
We came together, I begged him for a long time..."
