Chen Peng's voice was low. When Chen Peng's mother saw this, her face turned as dark as an eggplant.
Father Chen on the side didn't have much opinion.
"Okay, it's Chinese New Year, you mother and son don't start arguing again."
After Chen's father finished speaking, Chen's mother collapsed on the sofa angrily.
Why should the son she raised have to serve Liu Yeqiu?
Mother Chen couldn't figure it out every time she came here, but she could only grit her teeth and endure it.
Her son is stupid and doesn't know how to play tricks.
Liu Yeqiu, who was indoors, did not hear Chen Peng defending her in front of Chen's mother.
She did her handwork for a while, then lay down on the bed and slept all afternoon.
When I woke up again, it was already dark outside the window.
Thinking of Chen's mother's changing expression at any time, Liu Yeqiu hurriedly got out of bed anxiously. When he hurried to the living room, he saw Chen Peng and his son playing chess.
Liu Yeqiu glanced at the kitchen, then took small steps to the kitchen.
"Mom, I'm sorry I overslept. Let me help you."
Liu Yeqiu wanted to intervene, but was stopped by Chen's mother.
"No, no, you should go and get some sleep quickly so that my son won't feel distressed."
Mother Chen said this so lightly that Liu Yeqiu was not sure what she meant.
"Mom, I woke up. What did you want to do? Let me help you."
"No, no, please go out quickly. There is no room for two people in the kitchen."
Liu Yeqiu was pushed out of the kitchen by Chen's mother. She glanced at Chen's mother cautiously. Seeing that the expression on her face was quite natural, she secretly breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that maybe she really didn't need her help.
Thinking of this, Liu Yeqiu stupidly turned around and sat on the sofa, eating melon seeds and watching TV.
When Mother Chen turned around, she gritted her teeth as she looked at the chopping board in front of her.
What are you pretending to do? If you really wanted to help, you would have come out long ago. You don’t have to wait until you have done everything before you come out?
Also, if she really wanted to help, she wouldn't be able to drive him away even if she tried to drive him away.
With such a lazy look, he must have been directing his son to work a lot.
Mother Chen suddenly felt unhappy when she thought of this, but she could only endure it.
What Chen's mother was thinking were things Liu Yeqiu had never thought of.
The door to the kitchen opened again, and Mother Chen served dishes to the dining table. Liu Yeqiu got up from the sofa with difficulty, covering her stomach with one hand, and went to the kitchen to help.
Chen's mother put a lot of chili peppers in the dishes she stir-fried today, so she thought it would be better to add chili peppers in order to prevent Liu Yeqiu from complaining in front of her son in private.
Liu Yeqiu liked spicy food after she became pregnant. Chen Peng diligently served Liu Yeqiu some vegetables at the dinner table, which made Chen's mother feel extremely uncomfortable.
She always felt that the son she had worked so hard to raise was snatched away by Liu Yeqiu.
Mother Chen knew that no matter what she said, Chen Peng would protect Liu Yeqiu, and Mother Chen felt much more stable.
Let's wait and see for now, wait until Liu Yeqiu gives birth to the baby.
The meal ended with a very strange atmosphere.
The next day, Liu Yeqiu and Chen Peng took their things to see Yang Lina. They first went to Su Han's place, and found out that Yang Lina had returned to the courtyard. They sat for a while, then turned around and went to the courtyard again.
Yang Lina's complexion was better than Liu Yeqiu imagined.
Liu Yeqiu felt sorry for Yang Lina, but she couldn't say any words of comfort.
She knew in her heart that what Yang Lina hated most was when others sympathized with her.
"Sister Yang, why have you lost weight again?"
Liu Yeqiu didn't mention what Wang Lan said, but held Yang Lina's cold hand tightly with both hands.
“I may not have had much rest recently, but my health is still good.
I think you look pretty good."
"I haven't vomited very much recently. My mother-in-law is here and I don't interfere with anything I can do at home. I just stay in my room when nothing happens. In the past few days, I have gained a lot of weight."
Liu Yeqiu smiled, seeing that everything about Li Jingming at home was left intact, she felt faintly uneasy and worried.
Yang Lina is afraid that she still hasn't accepted the fact that Li Jingming left.
"That's pretty good too."
Yang Lina said that Chen Peng was very good to Liu Yeqiu, and the biggest conflict between them was her mother-in-law.
As long as her mother-in-law doesn't cause trouble, Liu Yeqiu is a very virtuous and kind-hearted woman.
"By the way, hurry up and prepare the money. Once the fifteenth day of the first lunar month is over, I plan to open a department store. Let me know in advance how much money you have to invest."
Yang Lina suddenly mentioned this matter, and Liu Yeqiu seemed a little surprised.
She thought that as soon as something happened to Brother Li, Yang Lina would not focus on this matter.
"Sister Yang, why don't we postpone the store at the department store? I really feel guilty for you working so hard for us with such a big belly."
Liu Yeqiu thought, no matter how little money she made, she had to protect Yang Lina no matter what.
"Ye Qiu, don't feel pressured. I have already decided on this matter. I will take action as soon as Zhaodi and Xiulan arrive."
There was a slight smile on Yang Lina's lips, giving people a calm and relaxed feeling.
After Liu Yeqiu was worried, he sighed heavily.
"Sister Yang, I feel sad when you are like this."
"You are so stupid, I have two children in my belly now, I must think about them.
For this matter, you just need to take the money and sit back to collect it. Don't worry about anything else.
Also, did you know that Wang Lan was released from prison?"
Yang Lina caught a trace of uneasiness in Liu Yeqiu's eyes, and she nodded in panic.
"She came to me first years ago and asked me for your address, but I didn't give it to you.
She said she was wrong and wanted to apologize to you."
"She's already here.
I accepted her apology, but I didn't forgive her.
Because from beginning to end, she is not worthy of being my enemy."
Yang Lina's faint words made Liu Yeqiu feel uncomfortable in his heart.
Yang Lina gave her an indescribable feeling. She only felt that Yang Lina seemed different from before.
Liu Yeqiu couldn't explain clearly for a while.
"Sister Yang, what she did to you is really too much. You have given her many chances."
Liu Yeqiu also felt very sorry, but it was a pity that everyone chose the path they took, and others could not change it.
"Don't mention her anymore, it's all over."
Yang Lina doesn't want to mention these trivial people now. The things in front of her are enough to make her tired.
"Okay."
Liu Yeqiu sat with Yang Lina for a while before leaving with Chen Peng.
Xue Yurou sent the young couple to the door of the farmer's market.
Because it was the Chinese New Year, there were few pedestrians on the roads in the county, and only a few people occasionally appeared visiting relatives.
Chen Peng took Liu Yeqiu's hand and walked slowly home.
"Mr. Yang is still unwilling to accept the fact that Brother Li is leaving."
Chen Peng muttered, while Liu Yeqiu couldn't help but sigh.
"Yes, seeing that the decoration of the room has not changed, I didn't even dare to mention Brother Li in front of Sister Yang."
Liu Yeqiu thought of the time when she lived in this courtyard before, and a trace of sourness flashed in her eyes.
