Zhao Qingjie, while taking a break with his wife, said, "Cook properly."
"I’m feeling unwell."
Zhao Qingjie was also in a bad mood.
"Unwell? My mom made you work to death, and you felt great back then."
Qi Xue i couldn’t believe Zhao Qingjie would say such a thing.
"How is that my fault?"
"If you don’t do it properly, just leave. I’ll do it myself, and stop sulking every day."
He was under pressure from both sides. His father was pushing him, and his wife was clueless.
In all the years of marriage, this was the first ti Qi Xue i heard Zhao Qingjie speak like this. She couldn’t accept it, so she got up and left imdiately.
Zhao Qingjie didn’t say a word, instead, he sneered coldly in his heart. If he wanted to accommodate her, he would, but did she really think she was indispensable?
She left, and he didn’t go after her. There were still a few months left, he could also let the younger son study over there; it’s the sa without her.
Zhao Qingjie was in a bad mood partly because he was exhausted, and the poorly cooked al was so terrible that he lost his temper.
Zhao Tian also overheard the commotion outside between his second son and his wife but didn’t say anything. This second daughter-in-law was very different from the elder one. Letting her go back was fine; she’d be back in a few days.
A few days later, Zhao Qingxiang noticed his wife looking utterly deflated, "Xiao Yun, you shouldn’t be doing any work, I’ll take care of it."
Sun Yun was initially happy after finding out she was pregnant, but recently she had been worried.
She used to think that as long as she was pregnant, it didn’t matter if it was a son or daughter, but now she was worried it might be another daughter.
The lack of energy these days was due to this. Hearing Zhao Qingxiang’s words, she started crying.
"Xiao Yun, what’s going on?"
"Qingxiang, what if I have another daughter?"
Zhao Qingxiang also hoped for a son, but he didn’t dare to admit it. Hearing his wife say this, he could only respond with a guilty heart, "Xiao Yun, sons and daughters are the sa. Don’t think about it; this is all that’s been on your mind lately, right?
If you keep dwelling on this, what if sothing bad happens? You’d regret it terribly by then."
Sun Yun listened to her husband’s words, "I understand. I won’t think about it."
She said that, but how could she really not think about it?
She hadn’t told anyone about the pregnancy, only the two of them knew. Of course, they were also unaware that their brother-in-law and sister-in-law had a disagreent.
After Qi Xue i returned ho, she stayed there for two days. She originally thought Zhao Qingjie would co to get her, but he hadn’t shown up even after two days.
Her two sisters-in-law were indifferent to her, which made her very uncomfortable.
Qi Xue i was quite distressed; what was Zhao Qingjie’s problem?
In all these years of marriage, they had never had such a disagreent.
What she did was out of disapproval for her father-in-law.
When Mrs. Qi ca back, she saw her daughter sitting on the bed sulking.
"What’s the matter with you? Go back to your ho quickly, or your sisters-in-law will kick you out."
"Mom, Zhao Qingjie didn’t co to bring back; how can I go back?"
"Why are you two upset?"
"It’s my father-in-law. He does nothing now and constantly complains about the als. We work in the fields all day, and I still have to co back and cook, so I didn’t put much effort into it."
"Serves you right. Which of your two sisters-in-law doesn’t co back to cook as well?
You’ve been spoiled these years. Look at what you’ve beco now. And you dare to hold a grudge against the elderly? Don’t you think you’ll grow old soday?
Do you think just because you’ve had two sons you’re invincible?
Now you know, right? Zhao Qingjie won’t co to bring you back."
Qi Xue i lowered her head, thinking about how having two sons gave her confidence, so what?
Qi Xue i really had no face to return on her own, so she stayed at her parents’ ho, but her two sisters-in-law were fed up by the fifth day.
You say you stay at your parents’ ho, acting like a young lady, doing nothing.
If you don’t work, fine, but don’t eat the grains their work has earned.
"Xue i, you should go ho quickly. Our family condition can’t handle your kind of eating."
Qi Xue i gritted her teeth, knowing very well that both her brothers feared their wives. Since her sisters-in-law said that, she really had to go.
But where could she go? Going back felt too humiliating.
With her sisters-in-law saying this, no one else stood up for her at all.
So, after breakfast, she left her parents’ ho.
She didn’t know where to go now. In the end, she gritted her teeth and went ho.
She arrived ho just before noon and went to wash up and cook.
The old Qi Xue i really wasn’t like this; in fact, it had sothing to do with Zhao Qingjie as well. He enjoyed pampering his wife, and habits like this weren’t ford in a day or two.
As she lifted the pot lid and saw the remaining porridge, she had no choice but to – this is what happens when a man cooks.
Zhao Tian had been wandering around the fields before coming back to see smoke coming from the chimney. The second son was still in the fields, so it must be the second daughter-in-law who returned.
He turned and left, harboring so resentnt towards the second daughter-in-law. He always thought if she were like the elder daughter-in-law, his wife wouldn’t have worked herself to death.
It didn’t matter; he wandered over to the elder son’s place.
Sun Yun was feeding the pigs, having a habit of feeding them before she ate.
Seeing her father-in-law co in, she rely greeted him with a call and said nothing more.
Zhao Tian also felt very uneasy. He knew the elder son and daughter-in-law resented him, as he had been focused on the second son’s heavy burden back then.
Later, he wanted to co over, but didn’t the two of them refuse? So why behave like this? Furious, he left in a huff.
Sun Yun was unbothered; if her father-in-law stayed for a al, of course, she wouldn’t ignore him.
Zhao Qingjie returned with his son to find that Qi Xue i had co back by herself and had already prepared the food.
This planted a seed of contempt for Qi Xue i in his heart. Didn’t call her back, yet she still ca back on her own?
That’s how n are; once they have such thoughts, it becos apparent in many ways.
Zhao Tian still had als in his own room and called his grandson to nap with him afterward.
In the Capital, Tan Shaoting and the family were waiting for the Cultural Relics Bureau’s staff; this ti, more than ten people had co.
They all knew these two. Seeing one artifact after another, there were indeed many treasures.
Each item was registered, and the family went back to their rooms, not wanting to disturb their work.
Qi Wen leaned close to Su Yuanyuan, "Mom, you collected all these; aren’t you sad to give them away like this?"
Su Yuanyuan smiled, "In the past, I certainly would be. I wouldn’t have willingly donated them. But now, at my age, my ntality has changed, and I might even leave here. What’s the point in keeping them?"
"Mom, have you thought it through?"
Su Yuanyuan shook her head, "Not yet. I’ve heard it’s very chaotic there, and the rules are different."
"Mom, actually we’ve been there for five years but haven’t really interacted with outsiders much, but it’s true that their rules are all about respecting power."
