Chapter 360 Tree Hole
Chapter 360 Tree Hole
"If you don't have an education, you have to get married at the age of 18. I went to college at that time, and when I came back from the winter break of my freshman year, someone came to my house to propose marriage! I was completely dumbfounded." Lele said.
"Haha, is there such a thing?" Chang Hong laughed.
"Well, as long as there are adult girls in the village, there are many people staring at them."
"There are more men than women in our place, which is really strange." Chang Hong responded.
"In that era, the preference for sons over daughters was a sin. Girls were given away or thrown away, and as a result, sons couldn't find wives.
It might also have something to do with the climate and soil. Seventy to eighty percent of my high school classmates who stayed here were boys, while those who left were mostly girls.
Chang Hong said, "That's right! Now everyone wants to have a daughter."
"How can you take care of two children by yourself?" Chang Hong asked again.
"My husband's grandfather passed away. The child was too young to attend the funeral, so they were brought back to my mother's house. My parents are older, and they couldn't leave when the younger generations came to pay New Year's greetings."
"Oh, I just came out to get some quiet time!" Chang Hong said in a low voice.
"What's wrong?" Lele was a little surprised.
"My husband is careless, and my old wife is very troublesome! She urges our son to divorce me every day." Chang Hong said with a frown.
"Ah? Why?" It's really new.
"She said I was too strong and that I was controlling her son!"
"Uh...where's the old man?"
"He passed away early. I was raised by a single parent, so I feel that saying he was a bit abnormal is a bit of an understatement. He is a bit abnormal." Chang Hong's words are also very interesting.
Lele laughed when he heard this. "How is that perverted?"
"A few days ago, she cried and made a fuss at home, saying that her son would belong to someone else's family after she gave birth to him.
I was wondering what her son had done to her, but it turned out to be because I bought a set of sofas for my parents' home.
I was spending my own money, not her son's money.
Later I thought, what she meant was, if I marry into this family, I will belong to their family, and the money I earn will also belong to their family!"
Chang Hong frowned and didn't even choose her words carefully.
Lele kept pouting. It’s hard to comment on it, but many old ladies in my hometown are really like that.
Chang Hong continued, "He always said he was sick. He went to the county hospital, the city hospital, and the provincial hospital, but nothing happened.
She would lie in bed motionless all the time, and would ask her son to bring her food and water."
Chang Hong shook her head. "There are too many things to do. I feel annoyed as soon as I enter the house."
"Is it impossible to live separately?"
"Live separately? She'll die right now! There's medicine on the bedside!"
"Oh." Lele sighed. This kind of mother-in-law is already in a state of mental illness. It is really impossible to explain her clearly in a few words.
"I really thought about getting a divorce, but the child is still young, and I couldn't bear it. She always said bad things about me in front of my son, and it pissed me off to death."
Chang Hong became more and more excited as she spoke.
The conflict between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law is also unsolvable.
It’s best to separate. If you can’t separate, you can only separate from men.
Lin Xianglan was so good to her and knew not to interfere in her son and daughter-in-law's lives. Even if they lived upstairs and downstairs, they were separated.
Lele suddenly thought of her close friends group. Isn’t that just a tree hole?
Not only can you complain, but you can also find ways to deal with the "evil" mother-in-law.
A sister in the group who gave birth to twins was so depressed after giving birth that she wanted to jump off a building because of problems between her mother-in-law and daughter-in-law.
The sisters in the group took turns to guide me, and now I go to work and regain my confidence.
Just like long-term companionship, they have developed a certain tacit understanding and spiritual connection.
In the circle of friends, many people are showing off their perfection.
But in this group, they all opened up their broken hearts and comforted each other.
"Wait a minute, I'll add you to a group. When you're unhappy, you can go in and chat. They all have solutions."
Lele opened WeChat and had a private chat with the group owner.
After agreeing, Lele pulled Chang Hong into the group of close friends.
"Some things may not be solved immediately, but if you talk about them more, you will feel better," said Lele.
"Okay, I'll try."
The two people stood quietly on the ice.
The ice surface is like a mirror, reflecting Lele's graceful figure.
The children were playing and fighting on the ice, their laughter echoing in the cool air.
The sun set and the temperature dropped.
They are ready to go home.
Chang Hong's home is near Hemei Garden. The car took a detour and took Lele and the others to Shanshui Mingzhu.
When I got home, my relatives had already left.
On the afternoon of the third day of the New Year, Wei Wuya arrived.
I carried a lot of things, big and small.
I brought a box of good wine to my brother-in-law.
Wei Wuya's face was full of fatigue, and his fair face had particularly heavy dark circles under his eyes.
Lele felt a little distressed.
Mo Yuan hadn't seen his father for a few days. When he saw his father, he threw himself into his father's arms and asked him to hold him.
Wei Wuya carried him into the living room.
When Chang Jinbao saw his son-in-law, he was very enthusiastic and wanted to make tea for Wei Wuya.
Wei Wuya stopped him: "I don't want to drink anymore. I just want to sleep. Drinking tea makes it hard to sleep."
"Would you like something else to eat?"
"No, no, I'm just sleepy. I haven't slept much these days."
"Then go to bed quickly. The room next door with a balcony." Chang Jinbao said, going over and opening the door.
"Okay!" she asked, holding Mo Yuan, "Do you want to sleep with Daddy?"
Mo Yuan shook his head, "I'm not sleepy."
Wei Wuya fixed his eyes on Lele, with a hint of anticipation in his smile.
Lele understood and said to her mother, "Mom, I'm going to sleep for a while too. You can look after Moyuan for a while. If he gets sleepy, you can let him in."
Lele's mother said, "It's okay, go to sleep."
Lele is in front and Wei Wuya is behind.
As soon as he entered the house, Wei Wuya closed the door and hugged Lele.
Lele leaned against the door and looked up.
Tired and dull eyes, with bloodshot eyes.
The peach blossom eyes have lost their former brilliance and brightness, and are covered with a thin layer of mist.
Lele reached out and touched her cheek.
The facial muscles are a little loose and lack the firmness and vitality of the past.
Lele pursed her lips slightly, her eyes full of heartache: "Go to sleep quickly, I'll stay with you."
"Yeah!" The man's lips trembled, "I miss you!"
He leaned over and gently kissed the woman's lips, trying hard to control the emotions surging in his heart.
A faint blush appeared on her cheeks, and Lele gently pushed the person away.
Wei Wuya let go of Lele, lay on the bed with his clothes on, and hugged her again.
He shrank back and buried his head in the woman's softness.
Before falling asleep, he murmured, "Let's have another child!"
Lele wrapped her arms around the man's neck, said nothing, and rested her chin on the top of the man's head.
When he fell asleep, his mind was full of thoughts.
Wei Wuya really wanted to have another child, whether it was because he wanted a daughter or because he wanted Moyuan to have a companion.
Maybe there were some touches from this funeral.
Think about it, my parents are already in their fifties or sixties, and he is the only grandchildren.
I’m afraid I can’t avoid having a second child.
Since you want it, then ask for it sooner rather than later. If you are about the same age as Mo Yuan, you can still play together.
As I was thinking, I fell asleep in a daze.
After a while, Mo Yuan came in.
He crawled over Wei Wuya and squeezed between his parents.
Lele took away Wei Wuya's hand that was holding her and hugged her son in the middle.
Wei Wuya didn't even wake up.
