Everything seemed to be moving in the direction he planned. Lu Shanhe said goodbye to Yang Jian and went directly back to his house in the machinery factory.

Just when Lu Shanhe was tipsy and fell into a sweet sleep, Chen Guotai's father at the door of a courtyard in the countryside looked at Wang Yongzhi staggering in the distance, snorted coldly, got up and walked into the courtyard.

When he walked into the yard, he saw Su Wanqing bending down to wash her face with difficulty with a big belly. The old man snorted heavily with disgust on his face.

In the past, he really liked to go out and bask in the sun with the old men of the same age, brag for a while, and even talk about his heroic deeds back then.

But since Su Wanqing passed by and his son was arrested again, he has never been there again.

It wasn't that he didn't want to go, or that someone was rude to him, but he always felt that everyone was looking at him strangely, or even mocking him.

In addition, his wife brought back rumors from her trip that Su Wanqing might have a bastard in her belly, which made him even more dissatisfied with his daughter-in-law.

Seeing her father-in-law like this, although Su Wanqing was used to it, she couldn't help but feel a little aggrieved.

If he could join the Lu family in the first place, why would he be so despicable to please and still be despised?

Just as he was thinking about it, Wang Yongzhi's voice came from the door.

"Sister, give me five dollars."

Su Wanqing immediately understood why her father-in-law suddenly came back.

After wiping her face randomly, Su Wanqing hurriedly walked out.

"How did you come?"

Wang Yongzhi said impatiently: "Aren't you going to say it? Give me five yuan."

Su Wanqing looked at Wang Yongzhi with hatred.

"Didn't I just give you a piece the day before yesterday?"

"What's enough for one piece? I don't care. Anyway, you won't leave if you don't give it to me today. I'll have dinner here."

Seeing Wang Yongzhi like this, Su Wanqing clenched her teeth in anger. Was it because she didn't think her life in her husband's family was hard enough and she didn't suffer enough cold looks?

"How shameless are you? I don't mind your cold eyes."

"Your brother-in-law is still investigating, and there is nothing coming in at home. Where do you want me to find five yuan for you?"

Wang Yongzhi said: "Don't lie to me. Who doesn't know that Chen Guotai's father's pension is higher than Chen Guotai's salary? Why don't you give me two bottles of the good wine someone gave the old man and I'll exchange the money myself." "

Su Wanqing raised her foot and pressed it firmly on Wang Yongzhi's instep. Wang Yongzhi grimaced in pain.

"I'm telling you, if you don't want me to be kicked out of the Chen family, then don't do whatever you want."

After saying that, Su Wanqing took out fifty cents from her pocket and handed it to Wang Yongzhi.

"That's all. My mother-in-law asked me to buy canned sour plums."

After taking the fifty cents, Wang Yongzhi looked at Su Wanqing's other trouser pocket with disgust.

"Only fifty cents? Please turn your trouser pockets and let me see."

Seeing that Su Wanqing turned over all her pockets and didn't have a penny, Wang Yongzhi reluctantly left.

Looking at Wang Yongzhi's leaving figure, Su Wanqing couldn't help but sigh again, and suddenly her mother-in-law's voice came from behind.

"What are you looking at? Are you leaving?"

Su Wanqing turned around and saw her mother-in-law holding two hoes. She couldn't help but frown, and at the same time she looked at her belly.

"Mom, are you going to work again?"

Chen Guotai's mother snorted coldly.

"Where will the food come from if you don't work? It's just hoeing two acres of land. I won't tire you. I think back when I was pregnant with Cathay, Cathay's father was not at home. Didn't I take care of the eight acres of land at home by myself?"

Hearing what her mother-in-law said, Su Wanqing had no choice but to take the hoe and follow her mother-in-law.

There was not much land, but for Su Wanqing, who had hardly done much farm work and was pregnant, it was comparable to torture.

Looking at the slowly falling weeds, Su Wanqing's thoughts returned to Lu Shanhe again. If her man was Lu Shanhe, how could it be her turn to do these tasks?

Thinking of her past leisurely days, Su Wanqing unconsciously stopped what she was doing.

"What can't you do? Why don't you stop till you finish hoeing a ridge of land? What else can you do?"

Her mother-in-law's scolding interrupted Su Wanqing's thoughts, and she straightened up to avoid squeezing her stomach. Su Wanqing continued to hoe the ground with difficulty.

Back home, Su Wanqing not only felt uncomfortable in her stomach, but her hands also hurt terribly.

Secretly taking out the pocket money her mother-in-law had given her, Su Wanqing made an excuse to go home and hurried out.

Seeing Su Wanqing leave, her mother-in-law spat at the door.

"How many months has it been? You're still not honest."

Chen Guotai's father said: "Leave her alone. It's a good idea not to eat at home, so I don't get angry just looking at her."

Su Wanqing walked all the way to the third brigade, thinking about how to raise quail chickens with Lu Shanhe, when she was suddenly stopped by someone, and when she looked up, she realized that it was her elementary school classmate.

"Xiaojuan? Where are you going?"

"Where can I go? Just go home. What about you?"

"Go back to your parents' house."

Xiaojuan looked at Su Wanqing's belly and sighed.

"Kicked out by your father-in-law? You said you did too. How good is Lu Shanhe to you? If you marry him, you will be prosperous. Do you still remember Wang Gang?"

Su Wanqing's mind had already wandered to the word Lu Shanhe, and she nodded subconsciously.

"Remember, the employee of the machinery factory came to our commune to help before, and he planned to offer you as his wife."

Xiaojuan whispered: "I heard from Wang Gang that Lu Shanhe is now a senior technician at the on-site machinery factory. He is awesome. His salary is said to be higher than that of the deputy director. Even the director has to give him face."

Su Wanqing looked at Xiaojuan in surprise.

"No way?"

Xiaojuan's expression was somewhat gloating.

"How could I lie to you? What is our relationship? Wang Gang just told me this today. If you don't believe me, you can ask him."

Su Wanqing couldn't say a word, and her mind was completely confused.

First he sold eels and built houses, then he raised quails and sold vegetables to the county, and now he became the deputy director of a state-owned machinery factory. How many things did Lu Shanhe hide from himself?

Seeing Su Wanqing's dejected look, Xiaojuan sighed again.

"Oh, it's fate. Don't be too sad. Let the past be bygones. People still have to look forward. Okay, I have to go home for dinner. See you later."

After saying that, Xiaojuan left with satisfaction, leaving Su Wanqing standing alone by the roadside, unable to calm down for a long time.

The next morning, Su Wanqing got up early, painted her eyebrows, changed into loose clothes, and went straight to the road.

Soon Su Wanqing met a former sweetheart. When she saw Su Wanqing standing on the roadside, the man smiled and stopped in front of Su Wanqing.

"Wan Qing, where are you going?"

Su Wanqing rolled her eyes at that person.

"Can you give me a ride to the county seat?"

The man was attracted by Su Wanqing's dress today, so naturally he would not refuse and patted the back seat with a smile.

"Can... come and sit down?"

"I have a stomachache."

The man chuckled.

"Isn't this difficult to handle? Just let me carry you up."
