Chapter 873 Sisters’ Narration
Song Hongguo was speechless for a moment, and the atmosphere in the office fell silent.

Li Qingxiu looked at her face and asked tentatively, "Hongguo, are you really angry?"

Song Hongguo asked angrily, "Aren't you angry when you hear this kind of thing?"

Li Qingxiu said with a stiff smile, "I'm a little angry, but, but not like you..."

Song Hongguo realized that she was getting angry, so she calmed down and explained, "I didn't expect that the Wang family would be so useless, and no one would feel sorry for Teacher Nan. We are also daughters-in-law, and we are living in a different place. How sad are we? Mother-in-law He only knows how to enslave himself, and the husband doesn't take him seriously. His wife has already had a miscarriage, but she can still go to work. It's a shame that he can do such a shameful thing! The one lying half dead in the bed is his wife. Those who were not destined to come to this world were his biological children, how could he walk out of that door?"

Hearing this, Li Qingxiu couldn't help but change his expression.

Song Hongguo noticed something was wrong with her mood and asked in confusion, "Sister, what's wrong with you?"

Li Qingxiu smiled bitterly, with a flash of pain in his eyes, "Back then, I also had a miscarriage, before I was pregnant with Tiantian..."

"Why didn't you save it?"

"I just accidentally fell it. After the miscarriage, your brother-in-law... also went to work that day."

She was understated and obviously didn't want to say more, but Song Hongguo could also guess from her sad expression that the miscarriage back then was definitely not just a fall. It might have been the work of Wu Zhuo brothers. Or was it the rubbing from her mother-in-law and sister-in-law? She was silent for a moment and then asked, "Don't you resent it?"

Li Qingxiu lowered his eyebrows and smiled self-deprecatingly, "So what about resentment? Shouldn't life go on? I know you will think I am weak, but Hongguo, if a woman wants to be strong, does that mean she must be right? She must be happy. ? Maybe it will make life worse, and the temporary happiness may destroy the family. It may seem useless to you to compromise and swallow, but at least you can get peace. "

The system couldn't help but said, "What kind of argument is this? Host, don't let her brainwash you."

Song Hongguo ignored it, looked at Li Qingxiu and asked, "Then are you willing? Your so-called tranquility was gained at the expense of yourself."

Li Qingxiu said calmly, "Just think about it. At least compared to most women, I am living a relatively happy life, right? Your brother-in-law... Even if he is cold, he is actually quite reasonable to me. I was originally in Li Qingxiu A family is to serve a large family, just like an old lady. After arriving at the Wu family, although I also took care of the old and the young, at least your brother-in-law helped me arrange a light job, and the money I earned was at my own disposal. Most of his salary is given to me, and he doesn’t tell me what to do with his two sons. He is even more concerned about Tiantian. What else am I dissatisfied with and dissatisfied with?”

After a pause, she continued, "Compared to those women who are beaten and scolded by men and have to work as cows and horses in their husband's family, I am already much happier. I am not boasting, others are envious of me."

Song Hongguo said, "So, now that you see what happened to Teacher Nan, you can be calm and not take it personally, right?"

Li Qingxiu's eyes flashed, and her hands unnaturally grasped the corners of her clothes, "I'm not at all calm. I just feel that it was her own choice, or her fate. She just needs to get through it. Otherwise, what else can she do? Divorce? She won’t agree to it. She’s too temperamental to argue with her. Even if her parents try to persuade her, won’t she still fall out?”

"So, she deserves this?"

"One person, one life..."

After she said this, the atmosphere became dull again.

After a while, Song Hongguo changed the topic, "Sister, you came to see me. Do you have anything else to do?"

Li Qingxiu followed her words and said, "I have something to do. I just want to ask, how do you plan your vacation during the Chinese New Year? When will you be home? I will go to the Tomato Brigade to visit my second aunt and uncle, and we will sit together. sit."

Song Hongguo told the truth, "It hasn't been decided yet. Just look at your own schedule. I can take time to go back at noon, and there's still time for a meal."

Li Qingxiu nodded when he heard this, "That's okay. The two children are at home, right? I'll take Tiantian there then."

"Okay..." At this point, Song Hongguo thought of the things in the net bag that Li Qingxiu brought for her. She always felt like she owed a favor if she didn't return the favor, so she bent down to open the drawer and hurriedly opened the drawer. I bought a blouse for a little girl from the mall, and when I got up, I took it out naturally and said, "Sister, I bought this for Tiantian. I don't know if she likes it. Fortunately, I am the aunt. Just give it a little thought, don’t dislike it.”

Li Qingxiu took it over in surprise, unfolded it and looked at it over and over again, "It's beautiful. I'm sure I'll like Tiantian once I see it. Hong Guo, it cost you money. Let her wear this outfit when she goes out to pay New Year greetings tomorrow morning, so everyone can take a look at her." How much my aunt loves her, hehehe..."

She was truly happy, smiling so much that fine lines appeared at the corners of her eyes.

Seeing this, Song Hongguo couldn't help but raise her lips, but then, when Li Qingxiu mentioned the Li family, she lost her good mood again.

"Our father's health is getting worse and worse. He is afraid that he will have to retire early before he can retire. He used to be so strong that he could easily carry a sack of more than 100 kilograms on his shoulders. But since Yang When the Jin Zhi incident came out, his energy and energy were suddenly drained away. Later, Li Nianhuai and Li Nianxue were added to the mix. Alas, the child he had loved for so many years was not the flesh and blood of the Li family. No one else could bear it. I have been feeling uncomfortable for several days..."

"He is sick every three days now and coughs all night. Zhu Yan and Wang Xiangyun are not easy to take care of, and they dislike them all day long. Qingshan and Qingshui are also two white-eyed wolves, and they don't care about them. After I went back a few days ago, I became angry After getting angry, they gave our father a good look..."

"In the final analysis, they still want benefits. If I give them something, they will all become filial sons and grandsons. Alas, I have seen through it all, but there is nothing I can do about it. I can't just ignore it. I can wait until our father a hundred years from now..."

Song Hongguo listened to her ramble and interrupted, "Even if Li Maohai is gone, you can't leave that family behind."

Li Qingxiu was stunned, "No way..."

Song Hongguo twitched her lips, "When the time comes, those two couples will use their children to blackmail you into dedicating yourself to the Li family."

"I……"

"Don't say you can be ruthless and ignore it. When you were in school, you knew that Li Jinbao and Li Yinbao were being abused and should be taught a lesson. Why didn't you continue to clean up their messes? When they asked you for something to eat, you never gave it to them. I would rather lose my sweet mouth than let them down, you are such a good aunt!"

Li Qingxiu's face turned pale after being squeezed, but she didn't know how to argue. She pursed her lips and said, "I, I am indeed soft-hearted. I will try my best to change my mind in the future. I am also very good to Ling Zhi..."

Song Hongguo sighed, "I know, I'm not trying to compare, I just want to remind you, don't live too tiredly, you have to be filial to Li Maohai, I won't stop you, but I haven't heard of being an aunt, and You have to let go of your obligation to raise your nephews. It's actually not a good thing for you to indulge them so much. How can they stand up if they are used to relying on you? "

Li Qingxiu smiled bitterly and said, "I actually understand everything, but I just can't be cruel, alas..." "Then try to meet as little as possible in the future. If they beg you, you can use your brother-in-law as a shield to say that he is not happy."

"……let me try."

Song Hongguo asked casually, "How are Li Nianhuai and Li Nianxue doing now?"

Li Qingxiu said in a complicated tone, "I haven't seen them for a long time. The two of them wish they could live anonymously. They used to have so much fun. It shows their fate... I heard that Li Nianhuai is still in the old city. I work in that small factory, but I just changed my position. It's not that good. Li Nianxue is in the health center of the commune next door. It seems that I'm dating someone. He is older than her and they are married for the second time. Fortunately, they don't have children..."

After Li Qingxiu left, the system couldn't wait to appear again and continued the previous topic, "Host, have you not been brainwashed by her?"

Song Hongguo said speechlessly, "Don't worry, no."

The system exaggeratedly breathed a sigh of relief, "It's good that you haven't been brainwashed. The three views of your eldest sister are really unflattering. Her remarks are definitely that of women who have been oppressed for a long time. They have no ability to change their own destiny, so they have to coax themselves." Play with yourself to convince yourself that life is not that bad after all. It is all self-deception, a hypocritical and incompetent illusion. Don’t be fooled. If women are like her, how can they hold up half the sky? "

Song Hongguo said lightly "Yeah". Of course she would not be influenced by Li Qingxiu. In later generations, although men and women are not completely equal, she has a strong personality and has never been a person who can accept humiliation. She was treated harshly by her husband's family and her husband was unkind. If so, she would never swallow her anger and ask for some peace and quiet. She would only kick the man away, stop her losses in time, and find happiness elsewhere. Even if she can't find a suitable man in the future, she would rather live alone than go to a... Make do with an unfair marriage.

But the system seemed to be worried about her and kept nagging. Song Hongguo had no choice but to say, "If you're bored, just go to the provincial capital."

"Why are you going to the provincial capital? Ah, to see what happened to Xu Heng. Okay, I'll go right away. What the heck, I'll be back early. Hey, I still want to spend New Year's Eve with you."

"Oh, you want to spend time with your boyfriend, right?"

"Hehe, it's the same, it's all the same..."

In the afternoon, Xu Xianghong came to take over, and Song Hongguo went home early. When she got home, she saw couplets posted outside the gate. It was written by Huo Minglou. He had obviously practiced it since he was a child. His writing skills were like iron and silver hooks. It's like an art exhibition, very eye-catching.

"The auspicious year brings good luck, and the whole world celebrates reunion..." Song Hongguo muttered and looked at Hengbiao, "The family is full of good fortune, this pair is good for the joint election..."

After entering the gate, the garden has also changed. Many exquisite small lanterns are hung on the originally bare tree trunks. Against the black and white background, such red is eye-catching and warm, very festive. There are also under the front building. Lanterns were hung, couplets were posted on both sides of the door, and window grilles were posted on the windows. Even the backyard was not left behind. There was a New Year atmosphere everywhere. Even the pig pens were posted with couplets that read, "The six animals of cattle, horses, pigs and sheep are prosperous." , a pond of fish, shrimp and lotus root is fragrant.

In the house, the atmosphere of the New Year is even more intense. Huo Minglou found the ribbons and balloons out of nowhere, and the arrangement was joyful. Even the flowers on the windowsill cooperated with each other and bloomed in the past few days. There are jasmine flowers, Crab orchid, daffodils, hyacinths, and a few pots of strawberries are now bearing bright red fruits, each one of which is so bright.

All kinds of food, drinks and snacks were also laid out, and even the side dishes for the New Year's Eve dinner were ready, waiting for her to come back and take the spoonfuls.

Huo Minglou said, "In a moment, the eldest brother and his family will come over. After dinner, they will go back to the army compound."

Song Hongguo nodded. This matter had been discussed before. Normally, their family should go to the compound to celebrate the New Year, but it was not as spacious and warm as her place. It was more convenient for her to have a New Year's Eve dinner, so it became Huo Mingdong's family's visit. The Tomato Brigade is here, and besides, they have a car, so they don’t have to suffer any trouble when traveling.

Song Hongguo had decided on the menu for the New Year's Eve dinner a few days in advance. At four o'clock, she put on her apron and started working. Huo Minglou and her two children helped her. It was getting dark when Huo Mingdong's family came, bringing their children with them. The guard Wu Meng was also an acquaintance. When he entered the door, he was carrying two large bags of things.

As soon as Huo Huaixu and Huo Huaichen arrived, they took Ling Zhi and Ling Yuan to set off firecrackers in the yard. They were both boys and had no resistance to firecrackers. They were playing and making noises. Their laughter could knock off the roof, and the house became lively in an instant. stand up.

The two brothers Huo Mingdong and Huo Minglou were talking in the main room. Xue Zhenzhu went to the kitchen to help Song Hongguo. She was not good at cooking, but her hands and feet were very nimble in doing other tasks. She explained by the way, "I planned to come here after lunch. , come earlier, and I can help you with some work earlier, but as a result, your eldest brother has something to do, which has delayed you. Look, you have been burdened by delaying it until now..."

Song Hongguo waved the shovel, turned over the vegetables in the pot, and said with a smile, "It's okay, many of the dishes are ready-made. I only came home in the afternoon, so I didn't do much work."

"The hospital is quite busy?"

"It's not bad, but there aren't many patients, and the outpatient clinic is inseparable from people. Someone has to keep an eye on it."

"Yes, how many days can you rest during the Chinese New Year?"

"Only the first day of the new year."

"Why is it only one day?"

"Some colleagues in the department have taken a long leave. Originally, there were not enough staff, but now I am even more nervous. This is the only way."

"Thank you for your hard work..."

"It's not bad. Compared with many comrades in front-line positions, my job is relatively easy."

In the main room, Huo Mingdong looked around and said with a bit of envy, "You are lucky, you have had the best luck since you were a child, your parents love you the most, and you have talents that others would spend a lifetime to do. Things that come to you come to you without any effort. You are the luckiest even in finding a partner. If you haven't found a partner for so long, I thought you were going to be single. Who would have thought that you were waiting for the best..."

Song Hongguo must be good-looking and talented, and she must also be virtuous and capable in life. She is famous for her delicious cooking, but the decoration in her home is more beautiful than others. Such a daughter-in-law is difficult to find even with a lantern.

Huo Minglou agreed without humility, "You are right, my greatest blessing is to marry Hong Guo."

In the yard, Huo Huaichen smelled the fragrance and said to Ling Zhi enviously, "You and Xiaoyuan can eat the food cooked by your little aunt every day. It's so happy. I really want to stay here and never leave... …”

Ling Zhi said, "You can take a few days off."

Huo Huaichen nodded hurriedly, "On the first day of the new year, I have to pay New Year's greetings to the uncles and grandfathers in the courtyard. After that, there will be nothing else. My brother and I will just stay here. Then, we will sleep on the Kang."

Ling Zhi had no objection and secretly expressed his gratitude to You.
