Chapter 133 Understanding
Mrs. Shen lowered her head and touched her belly again. Her eyes instantly turned red and tears couldn't stop falling.
"Sister-in-law, tell me... why are they so cruel? I'm his biological sister, and the child in my belly is his biological nephew..."
Although she did not scrape things from her husband's family to support him like her other sisters, she was the eldest sister who took care of him since he was a child.
When he was a child, when his parents went out to work, she was the only one who carried him on her back and coaxed him all the time.
But yesterday they actually teamed up to trick her into going back, wanting her to steal food from her husband's house and bring it back to them.
When she disagreed, they attacked her and during the struggle, they pushed her to the ground.
Just before she fainted, she was still holding on to Wang Yougen's trouser legs, begging him to save her and the baby in her belly.
But Wang Yougen was so scared that he kicked her away and ran away.
Seeing that she had no appetite, Xu Manyue had to put down the egg custard and took out a handkerchief to wipe her tears.
"Sister-in-law, look at me. I was like this with the Xu family before. Some things are better if you think about them in a positive way. There's no need to be sad for people who are not worth it."
"If you're really upset, once you've recovered and are discharged from the hospital, have Mom and Big Brother take you to the Wang family and give them a good beating to vent your anger."
"If you're still upset and still feeling humiliated, I'll keep beating you until you're no longer sad."
Mrs. Shen looked up at Xu Manyue for a long time, then chuckled.
I don't feel as depressed as before.
"Sister-in-law, you're right. Mom and the others spent so much money and effort to bring me back from the brink of death."
"If I continue to be sad and upset because of those people and ruin my health, then I'll really be letting them watch the fun."
Xu Manyue also laughed, put away the handkerchief, and fed her egg custard again.
"That's right, sister-in-law. You don't know that when mother and brother found you in Wang's bed the night before last, they were almost scared to death."
"Everyone contributed money and labor, and only then was we able to send you to the county hospital overnight for emergency treatment."
"There were several times when I saw my eldest brother panicking. I guess he was worried that something might happen to you, sister-in-law."
Mrs. Shen's eyes lit up instantly, and she didn't even bother to drink her favorite egg custard.
She quickly asked, "Really? Third sister-in-law, you didn't lie to me, did you?"
She had been married to him for more than ten years and knew very well what kind of man he was. He wished she would die sooner, so how could he care about her so much?
But when she thought that he would also panic because of her, her heart couldn't help but feel sweet.
Xu Manyue nodded, "Yes, it's true."
"Not only is my eldest brother concerned about you, but my mother is also extremely worried at home. And Qingqing, when she learned about your accident, she fainted from excitement."
Having said that, Xu Manyue thought about it and added another sentence.
"Qingqing is a good child, sister-in-law, you should pay more attention to her in the future."
Wang Zhaodi herself is a victim of male chauvinism, but she still treats her daughter and son differently.
She never thought there was anything wrong with her behavior.
Mrs. Shen also thought about what she had done to her daughter, and she felt a little uncomfortable when Xu Manyue reminded her.
"Sister-in-law, actually...actually I don't want this to happen either."
"But this person just can't control his thoughts and actions. Sometimes I know that my behavior may not be right, but when it comes to my daughter and son, I instinctively tend to favor them."
"All daughters will belong to other families in the future, only sons belong to our own family. When your eldest brother and I grow old, we will have to rely on Xiaoshan for our retirement and to continue the family line."
"You said I won't favor him, so who will I favor?"
Seeing Xu Manyue's expression gradually fade, Mrs. Shen thought she didn't believe it, so she hurriedly explained in the tone of someone who had experienced it.
"You think this way now because you don't have children yet. When you have children, you will know."
"Just like before I got married, I also hated my parents for favoring my younger brother and selling us sisters to other people as his betrothal money."
"But when I had a child, I suddenly understood my mother and father."
"In the countryside, if you don't have a boy, your family will be wiped out. Although Qingqing is sensible and well-behaved, I really prefer a son."
"You can only understand this kind of feeling after you become a mother. Third sister-in-law, when you have a child, you will definitely understand my feelings."
Xu Manyue immediately gave up the idea of talking to her. Although she didn't have any children yet, she was sure that not everyone was like Wang Zhaodi.
For example, Shen Laoer and Lin Luoxia have been married for five or six years and have only one daughter.
The old lady had talked to them before, but they always brushed her off. Now she simply ignored them and let them go.
She put the egg custard in her hand into Mrs. Shen's hand.
"Sister-in-law, eat by yourself. I'm going to the bathroom."
Mrs. Shen was stunned for a moment. "Sister-in-law, don't be angry. This is exactly what I said. When you have a child, you will definitely understand me."
Xu Manyue didn't look at her. "I'm not angry. Sister-in-law, you can eat it yourself. There are a few steamed buns in the basket, and a can of malted milk I brought you."
"When Big Brother comes back, tell him I'm leaving first."
"Maltese? Third sister-in-law, you've been too good to me. I will definitely not go against you in the future. If I do anything wrong in the future, you can scold me and I will definitely not talk back or fight back."
Mrs. Shen was so excited that her eyes lit up instantly. She kept saying nice things and her hand reached for the vegetable basket beside her.
At this moment, she only had malted milk in her eyes and didn't notice that Xu Manyue had already left.
Boss Shen came back from outside and happened to meet someone who was about to leave.
"Third sister-in-law, are you leaving?"
Xu Manyue nodded and said, "Brother, I bought some steamed buns for you and left them at my sister-in-law's place. They're still warm now. Go back and eat them. I'll be going back first."
