At the accessories shop.
"Yuemei, I heard you’re pregnant?"
Actually, it was a colleague of hers who went to the hospital and saw Wang Yuemei at the obstetrics and gynecology department, then mentioned it to Mrs. Wang.
Mrs. Wang got off work early today, so she came to check out the situation.
She had heard from Dongmei that Yuemei had resigned from the textile factory and is now working at an accessories shop.
She rarely es home to visit.
As her mother, she waited patiently, but no matter how long she waited, Yuemei did not e back.
Even on the Dragon Boat Festival, she didn’t e home for a visit.
As parents, even if they realize they were wrong, they wouldn’t admit it to their children.
But hearing from others that her youngest daughter might be pregnant, Mrs. Wang couldn’t stay still and hurried over to see how things were.
"Yes, I’m finally pregnant; I’m following my sister-in-law’s footsteps."
Mrs. Wang awkwardly asked, "How many months pregnant is your sister-in-law?"
"Over seven months now. Not long after marrying my brother-in-law, we got the good news."
When she found out her sister-in-law was pregnant, she felt incredibly self-critical.
What if she couldn’t get pregnant? What would happen then?
Brother Xiao He had forted her.
"Now that you’re pregnant, do you want me to take care of you during your confinement?"
Wang Yuemei once longed for her parents’ love, but now she really doesn’t need it anymore.
"You have to work; no need. My mother-in-law will e to take care of me."
Having her mother-in-law take care of her?
"Have your eldest brother and second brother moved out after dividing the family?"
The mention of this matter irritated Mrs. Wang.
"Yes, they moved out."
The house suddenly felt empty.
After the old man was discharged from the hospital, neither son nor daughter-in-law wanted to take care of him.
At this moment, Mrs. Wang realized that among the children, only the youngest daughter was the most filial.
But after marrying her off, she was pushed far away.
"Your sister is getting married?"
Getting married?
This news was truly shocking to Wang Yuemei.
Her standards were so high; it was impossible for her to settle for an ordinary person.
"That’s really great news! At that time, I’ll definitely e with Brother Xiao He to attend the wedding."
Fang Meiyun, listening to their conversation from the side, felt they were more like strangers than mother and daughter.
She didn’t remember her own mother, but her grandmother treated her very well, and after ing to the Capital City, her sister-in-law was also very good to her. Whenever she had her period, she would turn to her sister-in-law, who taught her everything step by step.
"Are you having morning sickness?"
Mrs. Wang looked at her youngest daughter, who now had a rosy plexion, had gained some weight, and even had a hint of baby fat on her cheeks.
She looked much better than before.
After getting married, she had really changed quite a bit.
But it was not hard to tell that after marriage, her life was good.
Xiao Zhao treated her well and did not abuse her for not bringing a dowry from her family.
"I’m not having morning sickness anymore."
At first, she found out she was pregnant because of the morning sickness, and her sister-in-law, Grandma Fang, and Sister-in-law Lanhua had given her a lot of remedies to stop the nausea.
But now, she wasn’t nauseated anymore.
"Your sister is getting married; make sure you e early," Mrs. Wang finally squeezed out this sentence before leaving.
"Sister-in-law Yuemei, have a candy." Fang Meiyun handed Wang Yuemei a candy.
"My parents had an accident when I was very young. In my memories, there are hardly any images of them—it’s my grandmother who raised my brother and me."
"Don’t worry, I’m fine. I’ve long since let it go."
Stopped trying to force things.
What was never received in the past won’t be lost now either.
Letting go is good.
Now that Sister-in-law Yuemei is pregnant, Second Brother Zhao told her to keep an eye on Sister-in-law Yuemei.
