Rebirth and Raising a Baby

It was already afternoon when we returned to Qingshan Village.

Lin Ling's family was dragged by three uncles, and they had to eat a hearty lunch before coming back.

At the dinner table, Second Uncle Lin also opened his collection of good wine, and the three brothers drank several glasses.

As for Moutai.
That is reluctant to drink now.

I have to save it and show it off.

Chu Yi refused.

He didn't drink, saying that he had to take the child home.

Uncle Lin didn't say much.

This is my family, not anyone else.

Could it be that Chu Yi looked down on him because he didn't drink?
That can't be, this is my nephew.

And even gave him Moutai!
Thinking of this, Second Uncle Lin warmed his heart.

Even the son who bought a big color TV had to take a step back!
"What's the use of the big color TV, just watch it for fun."

"Besides, people in the village knew that our family had bought a big color TV, so they all rushed over to watch the fun. I didn't see the Spring Festival Gala the night before yesterday. I didn't see it clearly. It was all at the expense of others!"

"This wine is different, you can really drink it in your stomach"

Second Uncle Lin was probably on top, and began to complain plausibly.

Lin Junkai coughed.

"Father, you praised me for being filial the day you brought back the big color TV!"

"When everyone said that you had a good son that day, you laughed so hard that you couldn't see your teeth!"

Lin Junkai resolutely refuses to take the blame that "big color TVs are useless".

"Besides, when someone praises you a few times, you have to share the wine again."

It's not that he underestimates his father, but that's just how he is.

To put it nicely, it is generous and not soft-hearted, but to put it badly, it is easy to deceive.

When someone said a few good things, he took it seriously.

"You stinky boy!"

"My nephew is filial, I am happy!" Second Uncle Lin shouted, not wanting to lose the wind.

"All right, all right, who told me not to have a good nephew!"

Lin Junkai looked around, wondering whether he would have a good nephew or nephew in the future, and buy him a bottle of Moutai to taste
But it doesn't seem to work!
How irritating you are!
"That wine was actually arranged by my daughter-in-law." Chu Yi didn't know why his uncles always thought that he bought the wine.

He didn't think so.

"Both of you, aren't these the same!" Uncle Lin said loudly, already drunk.

"It's true!"

Chu Yi nodded.

Indeed, what belongs to him belongs to his daughter-in-law, and what belongs to his daughter-in-law still belongs to his daughter-in-law.
"Okay, big hall brother, watch carefully, don't let them drink too much, and take care of them later." Lin Ling reminded a few words.

After drinking, the biggest fear is accidents.

And now there are three elderly people living together, so I'm afraid something might happen.

Lin Junkai responded swiftly, "Okay, I'll stay here in the afternoon, anyway, Yan'er is going back to her mother's house, so I can just stay here and take care of the child."

Say goodbye to my cousins.

The three uncles all drank too much and insisted that they would come out to see Lin Ling off.

Lin Ling saw three drunkards greeting and waving to him with blushing faces.
The picture is a little hard to see directly.

Dabao and Erbao each sat in a bamboo basket, while Lin Ling rode by himself.

By the time you get home, it will be much sooner.

After Chu Yi had eaten, it was the time when he was energetic, and he was carrying less weight, so he rode very fast all the way.

Everyone in the village is busy today.

The young daughter-in-law was going back to her natal home, so she left with a basket in her mouth.

As for when to go back and whether or not to bring anything with me when I go back, it all depends on the relationship with my natal family.

Older aunts, some come back and some don't. After the completion of their own small home, the relationship with their natal family will not be so close, and it is not necessary to rush to visit relatives at the juncture of the New Year.

It was rare for Lin Ling not to be stopped for questioning.

But it is inevitable to be said a few words behind her back, and they will probably discuss what she brought back to her natal home, and what she brought back from her natal home.

Maybe also talk about why she left her mother's house all of a sudden
Lin Ling didn't care about that anymore.

The most important thing in front of her now is the person who suddenly appeared and squatted at the door of the house.

"busy?"

Lin Ling didn't expect Li Qiuqin to appear.

Li Cuifeng made a fuss yesterday, she was ready for Li Qiuqin's visit last night, but Li Qiuqin didn't come.

Now it suddenly appeared, what's going on?
"Lin Ling, hello."

Li Qiuqin stood up and answered nervously.

It may be that I squatted for a long time, got up too violently, swayed my body, and almost fell.

Fortunately, Lin Ling's bicycle is not far away.

It was dangerous and dangerous for her to hold the front of the car, so that she didn't fall down.

"Are you OK?"

Lin Ling asked with some worry.

I remember the last time I saw Li Qiuqin, she was quite normal.

But looking at it today, Li Qiuqin is not only not fat, but has also lost a lot of weight, and his face is a little pale.

I didn't know, I thought it was a woman who had just had a miscarriage.

"No," Li Qiuqin forced a smile and shook her head.

"Ok."

She didn't want to say it, and Lin Ling couldn't force her.

Bring the car into the yard and close the gate.

Dabao and Erbao were also taken by their father and went back to the room to change clothes.

Er Bao just made a fuss about getting a drink and soiled his coat.

Lin Ling led someone to the hall and motioned for her to sit down.

"If you have anything to say, just say it."

If she can help, she will definitely help.

Li Qiuqin sat down on the sofa slowly. Usually, she often heard people talking about Lin Ling's family. For example, the sofa in her house was as soft as sitting on cotton.

Only now do I know that there really is such a soft chair.

"I just came back from the hospital in the county seat today."

Li Qiuqin suddenly said this.

All of a sudden Lin Ling's curiosity was aroused.

She wanted to ask, but dared not.

On the first day of the new year, Li Cuifeng agreed to ask Li Qiuqin to come and look for her in the evening, but he never came.

Lin Ling thought it was Li Qiuqin's displeasure, but she didn't expect him to be in the hospital.

I just don't know if it's her who is sick, or her daughter or her crazy mother-in-law
"It's nothing, it's my mother-in-law."

Li Qiuqin twitched the corner of his mouth.

"On the night of New Year's Eve, I prepared all the meals and prepared to have a good meal for the whole family."

"My mother-in-law insisted that my father-in-law and the man had nothing to eat underground, and they clamored to take the food to the grave."

"I couldn't hold her back, so I let her go."

"I finished watching the New Year's Eve, and I didn't see her come back, so I went to find her."

"She sat on the grave all night and burned her padded jacket. When I saw her, she was completely burnt."

"The health center in the village didn't look good, so I went to the hospital again."

"I went back to my mother's house today, and I wanted to let you know before I knew about my mother's coming to find you."

Li Qiuqin's expression was complicated.

Regret?
I regret it.

But, what can be done, her life is like this.

If Lin Ling had been agreed to at the beginning, maybe the result would have been different.

But now, can she turn back?
"So it is."

Lin Ling nodded clearly.

It's impossible to have such a mother-in-law.

The man and father-in-law are gone, if Li Qiuqin doesn't care about her mother-in-law, she might be drowned by the spittle of the villagers.

This lunatic is always difficult to manage.

What's more, Li Qiuqin has to take care of her frail daughter
"You, do you want to stop thinking about it?"

Lin Ling really wanted to help her this time.

Compared with half a year ago, Li Qiuqin has been devastated by life too much.

"Aren't you angry?"

Li Qiuqin raised her head timidly.

His expression was a little bitter.

Her mother's mouth is always like that, offending the villagers a lot.

Even when she was a widow, the village felt a little gloated about her misfortune.

Not to mention Lin Ling, who was offended by her mother many times.

Lin Ling smiled: "I can tell the difference, your mother offended me, and it wasn't you who offended me."

Besides, with Li Cuifeng's mouth, everyone in the village knew that she wouldn't say good things, and no one would take it seriously, so they just watched the excitement.

When it was mentioned, Lin Ling was a little angry, but it passed quickly, and her eyes were not so small.

"Then I have the courage to speak up, and I really regret it."

"Especially this time my mother-in-law was ill, and the hospital required injections and infusions. It cost a lot of money, and most of my savings were lost." With no money and no skills, Li Qiuqin couldn't be stronger.

At least, Lin Ling was the only one in the village who could really help her.

"Now it's unrealistic for you to go to the county seat to do business on your own."

Lin Ling originally wanted to suggest that she go to the county town to help people change clothes, save some capital, and then be able to sell the clothes she made.

"I suggest that you work in a garment factory for a few months first to see the popular styles in the county, and then make clothes yourself, cooperate with a garment factory or set up a stand to sell them alone. It's all fine."

Now that garment factories are recruiting people, Li Qiuqin has a solid foundation and good looks, so she should be able to pass the exam.

Li Qiuqin nodded vigorously.

"You are right, I have the confidence to do well!"

Li Qiuqin suddenly ignited confidence in life.

Lin Ling arranged for her very well, and she felt that she could do it after hearing it.

It's better than relying on my natal parents to make up for it in the village.

Others in the village laughed at her, saying that she relied on her mother to support her mother-in-law
"If you don't have enough money, I can lend you a few hundred first."

Maybe still too soft-hearted.

Lin Ling couldn't see others suffering like this.

Especially women.

There is a saying that is good, if you reach the goal, you will benefit the world at the same time.

She is doing well now, and it is always right to help others.

"you"

Li Qiuqin's eyes were slightly wet, and she didn't know what to say.

"Don't be like this, I just borrowed from you, and it's not that I don't have to pay back."

Seeing her like this, Lin Ling panicked.

Damn, she didn't know how to face this situation.

"You really don't hate me at all?"

Li Qiuqin felt a little bitter in her heart. She used to think that Lin Ling hated her, at least she hated her.

But the fact is that in this most helpless stall, only Lin Ling is willing to pull her up.

"In the past, maybe there was."

Lin Ling couldn't figure it out.

"It's gone now. I live my life very well, and I don't have time to care about those."

"If people always look at the past, they will not live well in the present."

Li Qiuqin was stunned for a long time, thinking about Lin Ling's words all the time.

If people are always looking at the past, it is not easy to live in the present.

Makes sense.

"You're right, I shouldn't dwell on the past anymore."

The past is the past, the past has passed, what's the use of thinking about it again!
Li Qiuqin said, tears streaming down her face.

Lin Ling sensed sensitively that there should be a story in it.

If Li Qiuqin didn't say anything, she just pretended she didn't see it.

"Your mother-in-law must not be able to take it."

"The county seat is no better than the village. A mentally abnormal person is prone to accidents."

"If you want to make money, your daughter can still be in school, but an adult can't do it too."

Lin Ling talked about her own thoughts, which was also a suggestion to her.

Li Qiuqin nodded one by one, being able to listen very well.

"I've already made up my mind. When I apply for a job, I will find two women in the village and spend some money to hire them to help take care of my mother-in-law."

"Although I'm a little worried, but with my mother watching, it should be fine."

Li Qiuqin smiled, her expression full of anxiety.

In the past, she still felt that her mother-in-law was as pitiful as herself, but she couldn't face the reality, so she went crazy overnight.

Now she is very tired of her mother-in-law's style.

I don't know if it was her illusion, she began to suspect that her mother-in-law was pretending to be crazy.

Every time she met a young man in the village who was kind enough to help carry water, the mother-in-law would always have a fit, either staining the clothes or overturning the food.

Even the daughter-in-law, the mother-in-law would swear at her why she wasn't a boy, which made the old Wang's family dead. Just when Li Qiuqin was angry and wanted to reason with her, the mother-in-law burst into tears again, making it impossible to start.

Later, the mother-in-law developed into a quarrel every month, and moved out the portraits of her father-in-law and her man from time to time, saying that she missed her father-in-law and son, and shouted for them to take her away.
In this way, her family has become a joke in the village.

Basically, Li Qiuqin's idea of ​​remarrying was completely eliminated.

"It's a good arrangement for you."

Lin Ling felt that her approach was correct.

The crazy mother-in-law was not caused by Li Qiuqin, not to mention that Li Qiuqin has been taking care of her all the time, and she has done her best.

There is no daughter-in-law who will delay her whole life for her crazy mother-in-law.

Who knows how many years the mother-in-law can live, Li Qiuqin doesn't make much plans now, how will she live her daughter's life in the future.

"Don't think too much about it. If you have money in the future, send your mother-in-law to the hospital for treatment. Maybe it's possible to return to normal."

Afraid that she would feel bad, Lin Ling comforted her.

Li Qiuqin nodded, "You're right!"

She hadn't thought of this before, but when the villagers questioned her later, she just said that, if others stop her, she will be punished, and she doesn't want her mother-in-law to get better!

Thinking about it this way, Li Qiuqin felt more and more that it was right for her to come to Lin Ling.

"This is the address of a friend of mine. Just call her Sister Ma. I have a good relationship with her. As long as you show your strength truthfully and get her recommendation, you can basically get into the garment factory!"

Lin Lingsai gave her a note.

Sister Ma collaborated with the clothing factory for several designs, which Lin Ling entrusted her to make for Dabao and Erbao.

Sister Ma is a good shopper. After seeing the design drawing, she wanted to buy it for a while.

Lin Ling did not agree, and only said that she would help other female compatriots if she wanted to. This remark moved Sister Ma very much, and she patted her chest and agreed boldly.

Now asking her to help introduce Li Qiuqin is not a violation of her original intention.

"Lin Ling, you, you are so kind to me, I don't even know how to thank you." Li Qiuqin's eyes were moist and her face was full of bitterness.

Compared with the indifference of the villagers, Lin Ling's actions were like helping people in need.
