MTL - There is Room For Abandoned Women In the 1980s-Chapter 1125 A good idea from my in-laws
Chapter 1125 A good idea from my mother-in-law
“Mom, dad, brother and sister-in-law, come in and warm yourself up!”
Li Xiuli felt sad when she saw her mother's family's sallow face and thin skin. Tears welled up in her eyes. She took her mother's hand and moved her into the house.
“You guys come in the house! I’ll help Xiuli cook!”
Because she had something to say to her daughter, Jiang Shuzhen asked her husband and sons to enter the house. Gao Guilan could see her thoughts at a glance:
"My dear, Xiuli is pregnant! Say what you should say, but don't say what you shouldn't."
"yes!"
Jiang Shuzhen smiled awkwardly. She was still frightened by Gao Guilan's toughness, but she always kept a smile on her face.
“The in-laws are here!”
Zheng Dakui saw Li Xiuli’s father warmly greeting him to sit down, personally handed him cigarettes, and also grabbed melon seeds and candies for Li Xiuli’s nieces and nephews.
Seeing that her father-in-law and Meijiao have not come back yet, Cao Qiuling also wanted to visit the new house. Someone from the Zheng family happened to be here. She stood up with a smile:
“In-laws, I’m going to check out the new house. The bride should be brought back by now!”
“My mother-in-law, I’ll take you there!”
Gao Guilan happened to want to go over and have a look, so he took her there in person. After leaving the house, he shouted towards the kitchen:
“My mother-in-law, do you want to go to the new house? I’ll take you to see it!”
Jiang Shuzhen, who was secretly eating meat in the kitchen, hurriedly swallowed the meat in her mouth, fearing that Gao Guilan would see her and hurriedly replied!
“I’ll be there later!”
Gao Guilan frowned when she heard her voice. She was eating something in her mouth! I felt so bad that I really couldn't stand up to the challenge. What if I didn't let them eat for a while and went to eat secretly?
With Cao Qiuling by his side, Gao Guilan suppressed the anger in his heart and took her away.
“It scared me to death, so I said I wouldn’t eat it but you had to give it to me!”
Jiang Shuzhen patted her heart with lingering fear. The mouthful of meat was still choking in her throat! It took a long time but didn't go down.
“Mom, drink some water!”
Li Xiuli's eyes were red and she handed the water to her mother. She was eating well and drinking spicy food at Zheng's house, but her parents were starving at home. She felt uncomfortable as a child.
"Xiuli, I'm relieved to see that you're doing well, Mom, but I can't even open the pot at home. I thought I could share some food after the autumn harvest, but I didn't expect that the food harvested wasn't enough to pay for the public food. Your mother-in-law lent us the food. I didn’t dare to waste it, so I ate it all with wild vegetables, but I didn’t last long. Look, can you please ask your mother-in-law to lend us some food?”
Jiang Shuzhen wiped her tears as she spoke. She also knew that it was difficult for her daughter, but for the sake of her son, granddaughter, and the whole family, she had no choice but to make things difficult for her.
“Mom, you also know my mother-in-law’s character. Last time, she was willing to lend you food only because of Xinyue’s help. This time”
Li Xiuli's heart ached. If possible, she would give up her rations to her parents' family, but she did not dare to tell Gao Guilan that her mother-in-law treated her well because she was pregnant and gave her an egg every day. Such high treatment was not right. She, that was for the child in her belly.
“Xiuli, Mom can’t help it. Today is a big day. I see that Grandma Xinyue is here, borrowing food in front of her.”
Jiang Shuzhen told her inner calculations. She also knew that it was shameless, but what was the point of being shameless in order to survive?
“Mom, if you do this, even if my mother-in-law agrees to lend me food, have you ever thought about what she will do to me if you leave?”
Li Xiuli didn’t expect her mother to come up with this idea. Is her mother-in-law someone who can be threatened? She did exactly what her mother said. After they leave, her mother-in-law will not give her a good life! Didn't mom think of this?
“What a great idea from my mother-in-law!”
