I just want to live a happy life

Chapter 326 70 The Daughter-in-law Whose Luck Was Stolen 3

"Aunt San, what is it?" the big girl said, blinking her big eyes.

Qingyue opened her hands, with a few candies in her palms.

Tiedan and Da Nv opened their eyes wide. It was sugar. Sugar was relatively scarce nowadays and they could only eat it a few times a year.

Qingyue smiled, then gave the candy to Tiedan and Da Niu: "This is what Third Auntie gave you, eat it."

Sister-in-law Xia Chunlan saw it and quickly refused: "No, sister-in-law, you can take it yourself, you don't have to give it to them."

Qingyue shook her head: "It's okay, I still have some, let them eat it."

Seeing them happily holding the candies, Qingyue felt happy too.

In the original plot, these two children had a hard time because of Zhou Kerou.

Although the original owner was considered a jinx in the original plot and her sister-in-law and her family stayed away from her, these two children were quite nice to her and they also helped her secretly.

They usually only ate half full, but even so, they were willing to help her. The original owner had seen them bring her food several times.

It can be said that during the years when the original owner was sad, they were the only people around her who were willing to help her.

Qingyue was still very grateful and liked these two children very much.

Father Zhou took his sons to work. Qingyue chatted with her sister-in-law in the main room for a while, then left and planned to go back to her room.

As soon as she left the main room and walked for a while, she was stopped by her second sister-in-law Li Qiuju.

Qingyue looked at Li Qiuju's belly, it should be five months old.

Li Qiuju also noticed that Qingyue glanced at her belly. She just thought that Qingyue was envious of her pregnancy, so she proudly held her belly, supported her waist, and slowly walked in front of Qingyue.

Qingyue asked, "Second sister-in-law, what can I do for you?"

"Third sister-in-law, I'm pregnant now. I can't bend down or do heavy work. I need to wash some of my clothes. I see you have nothing to do, so why don't you help me wash them?"

Li Qiuju didn't look like Qingyue felt embarrassed at all. Instead, she felt it was natural.

Qingyue certainly wouldn't spoil her. What does it have to do with her if her clothes aren't washed?

"Second sister-in-law, I know you are pregnant. Pregnant women cannot touch cold water or bend over to wash clothes. But I see that my second brother is fine. You can ask him to wash."

"Look at my hands, they are so soft and tender, they can't even touch cold water."

Looking at Qingyue's slender, white hands without any calluses, Li Qiuju felt jealous. Why didn't she have such a good life as Wen Qingyue?

"Third brother's wife, you can't be so lazy all the time. How can you take good care of your third brother if you are so lazy? Women should work harder and be more diligent so that people will like them."

"I am a man, not a woman. Women should do the laundry. It is not convenient for me now. What's wrong with you helping me, your second sister-in-law?"

Qingyue looked at Li Qiuju's self-righteous look and almost laughed out of anger. What did she mean by "men shouldn't do it, only women can do it?"

She is quite good at making distinctions.

"Since you said that washing clothes is a woman's job, then just go and wash them. How dare you ask me to wash them for you?"

"I don't wash clothes often, aren't you afraid that I'll ruin your clothes? Don't blame me if that happens. It was you who asked me to wash them for you. Who knows, you might not even have any clothes left to change into."

After saying that, Qingyue ignored Li Qiuju, the woman. She couldn't communicate with her, so there was no point in wasting her time.

Li Qiuju stood where she was, watching Qingyue enter the room and close the door with a snap.

Seeing that her goal was not achieved, Li Qiuju was naturally unwilling to give up. When she saw her mother-in-law Ma Xiaohua in the kitchen, she rolled her eyes and walked into the kitchen.

After Li Qiuju entered the kitchen, she saw her mother-in-law washing dishes. She stood next to Ma Xiaohua and picked up a bowl to wipe it. While wiping, she said, "Mom, my belly is much bigger now, and I really can't do the work. Otherwise, let Wen Qingyue do the cooking work in the kitchen, and let her and my sister-in-law take turns."

Ma Xiaohua said without even raising her head: "Sure, as long as you can convince me, I have no objection."

Li Qiuju curled her lips. If she could convince Wen Qingyue, she would never say anything in front of her mother-in-law.

"Mom, go ahead and tell her. I don't think she will listen to me. You are my mother-in-law. She will definitely listen to you if you tell her."

Ma Xiaohua kept moving: "Since you can't persuade me, then don't talk too much in front of me."

"Why are you so fussy? When I was pregnant, I could do all the housework and farm work, but now I can't do it here."

"I'm telling you, I've been very good to you. I just let you cook in the kitchen, and I let you and Chunlan take turns. When you cook, I'll help you. I know you're pregnant, and I'll let you eat eggs every few days."

"Which daughter-in-law can live as comfortably as you? If you're looking for work, you can do the heavy work at home, or go back to your parents' home."

Li Qiuju was scolded and quickly shut up, but she was still not convinced in her heart and muttered, "I think Wen Qingyue is living a more comfortable life than me who is pregnant. She has never worked since she got married. She only knows how to eat."

Ma Xiaohua stopped washing the pot and said, "Then who made your family and your husband fail to live up to expectations?"

Even if it was her son, Ma Xiaohua would still scold him.

"Yanzi doesn't rely on his family, so he found a good job in the city and gets paid."

"We agreed at the beginning that you should work to earn work points at home, eat at home, and use home supplies. But after Yanzi found a job, all the work points he earned before were given to your family. They were all eaten by both of you."

"And Qingyue also has a job. Even if they eat at home, they still have to pay five dollars a month for food. Occasionally they will buy meat and other things. Don't you eat any of these?"

"I think you are blind. Yanzi did a lot of things when he was at home. Why are you not accepting it here? Yanzi loves his wife, and Qingyue is also capable."

"Since you have no ability, you should just behave yourself. You just keep looking for trouble every day."

After saying that, Ma Xiaohua ignored her.

Li Qiuju was left staring blankly, feeling aggrieved.

Perhaps because she knew she was guilty, or because she couldn't argue with him, Li Qiuju turned around and left the kitchen angrily without saying anything more.

In Ma Xiaohua's heart, of course, she was dissatisfied with her third daughter-in-law who did nothing at home, but Yanzi protected her, and she received money every month, and from time to time, she received gifts from the young couple.

Besides, she, the third daughter-in-law, is not without her own opinions and backers. Her family members are very capable. If she forces them, she will not gain anything good.

So forget it.

Of course, it’s mainly because of the five dollars.
