Seeing that she couldn't hide it anymore, Zhou Chengkang sighed and pulled her in, "It is said that I want it. I haven't seen my mother-in-law in town yet, so I don't know if she is leaving."

There was no such thing in her previous life, so it can be seen that there are no absolutes in the world, and she may not necessarily follow the way of her previous life if she does it all over again. Earlier, she didn't know that Zhao Wanwan could go back to find his father.

"If you really want to leave, you should come and tell me?" Li Qinghe asked in a low voice.

After asking, I think it is very possible. But with the weather these days, it's hard to go out.

"I will always be with you," he said.

When the two entered, Li Qinghe thought of something, "Do you want to go back and see your third brother?"

"No need." Zhou Chengkang shook his head, "He can handle it himself."

He said so, and Li Qinghe stopped persuading him. Picking up the needle and thread again, the diapers she prepared at the beginning, Zhou's mother saw that it was not enough, saying that her child was born in winter, it was not easy to do, and she had to prepare more.

Therefore, she has been competing with diapers these days.

Zhou's mother came back in the evening, with a tired face, "I still didn't leave, but I think there will be a lot of things after I leave. If I leave, the child has no mother. If I don't leave, I will probably regret it in the future. The two still Gotta fight."

She sighed, "I'm going to rest."

This year's autumn has been raining lightly one after another, and it has never stopped. It is impossible to chop firewood. However, there are also some people who really don’t have any at home, and they ran to the mountains to chop while it was raining. Recently, there are quite a lot of people in the village suffering from wind and cold. Doctors are invited every three days, regardless of whether they live in the village. But there were quite a few people who came to Zhou Chengkang to ask for a doctor in the town.

When Zhou Chengkang went to the county seat, he brought back a lot of things, and now he helped the villagers pick up and drop off the doctor, and he would also buy some things when he sent them back.

This time when he came back, what he brought back was not something, but Xu's.

Xu's face remained unchanged. After being polite with Zhou's mother, he walked around the yard again.

Mother Zhou went to the kitchen to cook. Mrs. Xu looked over there and touched her belly, "How do you feel recently, have you been wronged?"

"Very good, no." Li Qinghe was still very happy when Mrs. Xu came over, "Mother, why is this weather here?"

Mrs. Xu nodded her nose, "Did you ask knowingly? Your third sister-in-law has had a few fights, and I don't believe you don't know. The two brothers of the Zhang family will move back to the county town, after all, the clan is there."

Li Qinghe smiled, "Then do you want to go?"

Xu looked at her, "Do you want me to go? Or do you want me to stay?"

If you really want to ask her, it's definitely best to stay. My mother lives in a town not far away. Even if I don't have much contact with her, just thinking about it will warm my heart. But, she can't be so selfish, "Mom, live wherever you think is good."

She has her own life, and it is too much to insist on keeping Mrs. Xu.

Xu hugged her, her eyes turned red, but her face was smiling, "I've decided to leave next spring. I have to see my grandson no matter what."

Li Qinghe felt warm in his heart, "Really?"

Seeing her happy, Mrs. Xu poked her, "Just now you said follow me."

"After they leave in a few days, I'll bring Bin'er back to stay with you." She swept around the yard, "You won't agree?"

Of course not, such a big house, so many empty ones. After dinner, Zhou Chengkang sent her back to the town.

Knowing that Mrs. Xu would come back to live with her, she was very happy all day long. In the blink of an eye, it was mid-September. During dinner that day, Zhou's mother whispered, "I heard that the Zhao family had a quarrel last night."

Because of Li Qinghe's relationship, the Zhou family will inevitably pay more attention to Zhao. Hearing this, she was also very curious, "Why?"

As far as she knew, only Zhao Tianfu was left in the Zhao family, and there was a woman he brought back from the town. It was said that she was brought out from the Hualou. She was much younger than him. well done.

Zhou's mother said casually, "It seems that Zhao Tianfu's woman is pregnant, and she wants to make a fuss for him to marry, and what's more, Wanwan and Wanwan are not allowed to live together. So, Wanwan quarreled with her. When they talked about it, they scolded very dirty. The woman said that Wanwan raised her own face, and Wanwan said that the child in the woman's womb was not her father's. It happened that Qian Shi also went there, and she also quarreled with that woman. It caused a lot of discussion this morning."

Qian's status is embarrassing, why did she go to get involved.

But after thinking about it again, with Wanwan's courage, arguing with others will only be a disadvantage.

"The people in the village said it was ugly." Zhou's mother glanced at her, "I told you, don't get excited."

Li Qinghe couldn't laugh or cry, "I promise not to get excited."

Zhou's mother lowered her voice, "It is said that Zhao Tianfu has all wives and concubines, and the quarrel started when he couldn't fight."

Hearing this, Zhou Chengkang frowned, "Mother, don't talk nonsense."

"I said it myself, it's better than Qinghe hearing outsiders talking about it?" Zhou's mother didn't care, "Besides, I don't think Qinghe's tires will move when she hears this, and this is a person who can't be beat , there is absolutely nothing to be angry about."

Instead of saying this to his son, it is better to say it to Li Qinghe. Zhou's mother is suggesting that she relax.

"Mother is right." Li Qinghe agrees, as long as her father is not involved, the matter of Qian's mother and daughter has nothing to do with her. They don't have deep feelings, so it would be ridiculous for her to complain about them.

Zhou's mother changed the subject and asked, "By the way, your mother said she would come to serve your confinement child?"

Li Qinghe didn't notice the deep meaning in her words, and said casually. "They said they would come to stay for a few days."

Mother Zhou put down the bowl and chopsticks, Li Qinghe and Li Qinghe looked at each other, and then both looked at her.

"Originally, I shouldn't have said these things," Zhou's mother looked at her. "Now your father hasn't made it clear. If your mother comes again, he should come to see you when you give birth, right? Your mother is getting along, and Wanwan's parents are still making trouble, at this time... Isn't it just for the villagers to talk about."

Li Qinghe also put down his chopsticks, "What do you want?"

"Your mother don't come, I will take care of you." Mother Zhou picked up the chopsticks to eat again.

Mrs. Xu stayed here on purpose to take care of her daughter, and now she is told not to come here, she should be sad. Besides, when her daughter gave birth, she just didn't stay here on purpose, so she can't come to see it

She didn't speak. Seeing this, Zhou Chengkang hurriedly said, "Let the mother-in-law come. I'll go and tell the father-in-law when the time comes. He will come to see the child again after those few days have passed."

Zhou's mother saw that her complexion was not right, she nodded and said, "That's fine. It's best to stay for a few days less."

Although she is telling the truth, it feels a bit wrong. Li Qinghe never plays tricks on people close to him, and asks directly, "Mom, tell me what you have to say. Don't be so meandering, I'll listen to you." I'm so tired, I'm pregnant, and I don't bother to think about it."

Mother Zhou looked embarrassed, "I heard that your mother won't go to the county seat? She..."

After walking around for a long time, it turned out that they were afraid that Mrs. Xu would live forever. Perhaps Zhou's mother was afraid that her son's life would become like that of the eldest son, with Mrs. Liu caught in the middle, getting more and more troublesome.

Li Qinghe said directly, "She will go in spring and won't stay in my house for too long. Besides, she is my own mother, she won't be like Aunt Liu."

To put it bluntly, Zhou's mother was a little embarrassed, "Qing He, don't be angry. This time I was overthinking."

She wasn't angry, but she was really in a bad mood. Zhou's mother was nice to her these days, and it was at this time that Li Qinghe suddenly discovered that even Zhou's mother had selfish intentions. She thought for a while and said, "My mother has a younger brother. Besides, she is doing well in Zhang's family, so it shouldn't be my turn to take care of her. But my father only has a daughter from me, although he is sometimes a bit awkward. Qing, but I didn’t treat me badly in general, there are more than two taels of silver as a dowry, and there are not many girls in the village who have it. In the future, when he gets old, I will still give him a pension.”

She will do this matter regardless of whether Zhou's mother is happy or not. Li Qinghe looked at Zhou's pale mother and said, "And you, when you get older, we will not leave you alone. Not less."

Hearing the last sentence, Mother Zhou's complexion softened a little, and then she laughed, "I was thinking about it."

A child who knows how to be filial is better than a child who doesn't even care about his own parents. If Li Qinghe really doesn't care about Li Fu, she will probably also worry that when she gets old, the two of them can't be counted on.

It's been raining all the time, and it feels like winter is only at the end of September. Recently, Zhou Chengkang often looks at her stomach in a daze, feeding the chickens and pigs quickly, and usually stays with her without doing anything.

Some looked forward to it, and some were afraid, but the child in his stomach didn't care about his mood. On the last day of September, when Li Qinghe moved in the morning, a rush of heat flowed down his lower body, and then a sharp pain in his stomach, and his face instantly turned pale.

Zhou Chengkang, who was next to him, was handing her the clothes. Seeing that she was not moving suddenly, and the fingertips of his fingers on the bedposts turned white, he immediately put down his clothes and hurriedly supported her back. , "Is it a stomachache?"

Li Qinghe nodded, "Hurry up... find your mother..."

Zhou's mother occasionally went back to stay for one night earlier, but recently she lived next door, and she got up early and was already in the kitchen. He stepped over, took Li Qinghe from his hand and held him steadily, urging, "Go and call Mrs. Wen."

The author has something to say: I am about to give birth. See you tonight.
