"Whatever happened today was caused by me and Huahua. Hu Fengqin's words were too unpleasant. This time I have wronged Xiaojuan."
Yang Lina apologized to Tian Li, and Tian Li shook her head helplessly.
"I also think Huahua did the right thing. Look at Hu Fengqin's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law. What's so great about giving birth to a son? He's not the crown prince, so he makes it seem like he has inherited the throne.
When my child bleeds, the first thing I do is not go to the doctor, but come to your house to make trouble with mine, which makes me panic."
Tian Li was also very angry.
When she was poor in the past, Yang Lina would not gossip about her and would secretly give her tofu and skins when selling tofu. Her kindness cannot be measured by money.
Now that her family is living a prosperous life thanks to Yang Lina and her husband, her heart is naturally thinking about Yang Lina.
"Xiaojuan, go play with your younger brothers and sisters."
Tian Li sent Zhang Xiaojuan away and then took Yang Lina to move a stool and sit in the yard.
"Tell me the truth, are you really unable to get pregnant?"
Tian Li looked worried.
"I don't know either. Jing Ming and I went to Beijing some time ago just for this matter. The examination results showed that both of our bodies were as strong as a steel wall.
The doctor said I'm still young and there's no need to rush."
"That means you are fine, but you just can't get pregnant?"
Yang Lina nodded, and Tian Li said with some excitement: "Let me tell you secretly, there is an old Chinese medicine doctor in our village. I heard that he has a prescription that specializes in treating infertility. One day I will ask Kai Kai to come back to me."
My mother-in-law, ask me to get one specially for you, and I will ensure that you give birth to a big, fat boy."
The corners of Yang Lina's mouth twitched and she smiled awkwardly.
"Forget it, I have Huahua to take care of right now and I have to be busy with the hotpot restaurant. When I want to have a baby, I'll tell you that it won't be too late if you give it to me."
"They all said that about you, why aren't you worried?"
Tian Li is also worried about Yang Lina. Over the past three years, it has not been easy for the two of them in her husband's family.
Yang Lina was luckier than she was in meeting a good and sensible man. Although Li Jingming was stubborn in the past, he had a good heart. Now that Yang Lina has no children, he is also very considerate to Yang Lina.
"This matter can't be rushed for a while. Don't take today's matter to heart. You can't rely on Xiaojuan for this matter. Xiaojuan will grow a lot when she encounters today's incident."
The implication of Yang Lina's words was that when she leaves later, she should stop lecturing Zhang Xiaojuan.
"I think she did the right thing today. The children around her were making noise, so my Xiaojuan should not have thrown stones at other people's children.
What makes me angry is that Hu Fengqin keeps losing money. The world is so much better than before, so she, Hu Fengqin, can shout in the village.
When my mother was a child, all the brothers and sisters in the family had only one pair of pants. Whoever wanted to go out would wear that pair of pants.
Nowadays, times are improving, but women still look down on women.”
If Tian Li had not experienced being looked down upon before giving birth to a son, she would not have risked her life to have another child.
"Be nice to your daughter in the future. You never know who she will marry when she grows up and what kind of life she will live."
Yang Lina seemed to be talking to herself, Tian Li paused, but shook her head helplessly.
"Huahua is your adopted child. The women in the village don't seem to pay attention to this matter. In fact, they are saying privately that you should take Huahua back to the city as soon as you are done with your work here, lest these women's gossips hurt Huahua's heart.
"
"I got it. You can go about your business quickly. I'll go back and see Huahua first."
***
When Li Jingming heard about this and rushed back, Yang Lina was holding Huahua and discussing what happened today with Wang Ying.
"This woman Hu Fengqin's mouth is really hopeless. Even a child at such a young age said that she has become unreasonable as she gets older."
Wang Ying stamped her feet angrily, and she paced back and forth on the floor of the room angrily. If she hadn't been afraid of scaring Huahua, she would have beaten the old woman to pieces.
She usually has a poor family, as if every family has a grudge against her, and wishes that other people's families would be miserable.
"Sister-in-law, why don't you take Huahua and go back to the city to hide for a few days."
Sun Yuxiu knew that once Hu Fengqin was provoked, he would stand on the hillside in front of the village and yell and curse for several days until he got angry, and then he would stop.
That old woman could say any ugly thing. Sun Yuxiu was really afraid of the old woman's big mouth talking nonsense.
"Don't hide. I haven't done anything embarrassing. If she dares to say anything wrong about me again, I will..." cut out her tongue.
When the next six words were about to blurt out, Yang Lina saw Huahua in her arms blinking at her with her big innocent eyes, but Yang Lina didn't say anything.
"Mom, will you sell me?"
Huahua's milky voice made Yang Lina feel a little pain in her heart, and she hugged Huahua tighter.
"I won't sell you, my parents are not short of money.
Huahua, mom and dad love you very much. What that brother said today was just to coax you kids. Sister Xiaojuan had a conflict with that brother because she was angry.
Hua Hua, my dear, everything has been resolved. If anyone wants to say these things again in the future, just tell them bravely and loudly that your parents are rich and will not sell Hua Hua. Do you understand?"
Huahua nodded in understanding, raised the corner of her mouth, and tightly wrapped her two small hands around Yang Lina's waist, motionless.
Yang Lina also knew that what happened today was just a small quarrel between the children, but Hu Fengqin's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law had to quarrel, so there was no need for her to save face for them.
The reason why Li Xiaoxiao was asked to apologize to her was to let him know what to say and what not to say.
The relationship between people is inherently one of mutual use. It doesn't matter if others don't appreciate her, but don't make trouble for yourself.
Whether she is pregnant or not is her own business, but they cannot harm Huahua.
Now that Huahua has been raised by her, she must take on the responsibility of being a mother.
"Hu Fengqin must still be angry. When Jing Ming comes back later, let him take you two back to the city, so as not to hear her curse words and make your head hurt."
Wang Ying also suggested, and Yang Lina hugged Huahua tightly.
Is this a disguised escape?
Why is she running away?
This is her and Li Jingming's home. Even if she runs away today, will she have to run away for the rest of her life when people gossip about her?
It is unrealistic to run away for the rest of your life.
"We're not going."
After Wang Ying finished speaking, Li Jingming appeared in the yard.
"My child is right, why should we hide?
If she wants to scold, she can scold me, and I'll see if she can make a flower out of her scolding."
Li Jingming looked solemn and walked beside Yang Lina. He saw Huahua sleeping in his wife's arms. He gently picked up Huahua and went into the house to put her on the bed.
