Chapter 155 He's a father now, but still not serious
Zhang Changyao sternly rebuked Guan Yutian, raising his hand as if to strike him.
Guan Yutian huffed and puffed, clearly unconvinced. Seeing that Li Yue'e ignored him, he had no choice but to back away.
"Changyao, I'm still worried. Should I go back?"
Li Yue'e hesitated, taking a step and looking back, unwilling to let Guan Yutian suffer injustice.
"Second sister-in-law, will you listen to me? If you can appease them this time, you won't be mistreated in this family in the future."
The children are too young and can't handle it. If you set a precedent of people being beaten without saying a word, how will you survive in the future?
Listen to me, I'm your brother, I can't let you walk on an empty bridge.
If you end up like Sister Guimei, then... then who will take care of these children in the future?
Do you really expect Wang Shuqin to treat these kids the same way you do?
Zhang Changyao gritted his teeth and pulled Li Yue'e home.
Li Yue'e lowered her head and went into the house, silently leaning against the edge of the kang (a heated brick bed) and picking at her fingers.
"Second sister-in-law, what's wrong with you?" Yang Wuni asked, looking at Li Yue'e whose hair was standing on end.
"Wu Ni, do you think Second Sister-in-law has lived all these years in vain?"
She raised a whole bunch of kids, but in the end, it was her brother-in-law who protected her.
Yutian, that silly boy, how long has he been married?
His wife was more than five months pregnant, but he didn't realize it and spent all his time taking care of her.
"That Wang Shuqin is so sarcastic and sarcastic every day, she's practically ready to sleep on my bed." Li Yue'e grumbled, her head down.
"Second sister-in-law, what you're saying is useless. The most urgent thing is to get Yutian and Wang Shuqin out of the house."
If this continues, something bad is bound to happen sooner or later.
This time you're forcing my second brother to find a house for Yutian and his wife.
Once the couple moves out of that courtyard, it won't be convenient for my second brother and Wang Shuqin to do anything they want.
The people in the village all had incredibly sharp eyes; they would even check the gender of a fly that flew right under their noses.
They're not afraid of you, but they're afraid of being talked about behind their backs.
Zhang Changyao poured Li Yue'e a cup of hot water and then went to feed Liao Zhi water.
"Sister-in-law who just came in, let me tell you, these women in your village who have affairs..."
They all have one thing in common: the men are weak and can't control their wives.
If you want to solve the problem, you have to address the root cause: isn't he having an affair with your man?
Then you should cut off your man's penis and give it to her.
"Let's see if she dares to get angry with you again in the future."
After Liao Zhi finished drinking the water, he began to give Li Yue'e advice.
"Liao Zhi, that's a terrible idea. Shut up right now."
Zhang Changyao stuffed a freshly peeled egg into his mouth.
"Liao Zhi, Second Brother is Zhang Changyao's cousin, don't talk nonsense."
After Yang Wuni finished breastfeeding, she quickly told Liao Zhi about the relationship between the two of them.
They were afraid that if he continued to talk nonsense, he would upset Zhang Changyao.
Liao Zhi shut his mouth and said nothing more. Only then did Zhang Changyao heat up the kang (a heated brick bed) and go to Wang Ga's house.
"Brother Ga Zi, you sold quite a few vermicelli noodles the other day. I was wondering if you could lend me some money."
Wu Ni has been eating white sugar like crazy these past few days, and I'm afraid she's got something wrong with her.
Liao Zhi said it was due to a lack of nutrition and asked me to buy her some good food to help her recover.
I don't have much money on me, and I can't go to town to buy it on credit."
Zhang Changyao shamelessly approached Wang Ga to borrow money, knowing that Wang Ga had earned some income from selling vermicelli these past few days.
"Changyao, I don't have much left. I used all the money from selling vermicelli to buy potatoes."
Otherwise, go to the Red Plum Shop in town and tell them I sent you.
That's Qiuju's uncle and aunt's house. You can use whatever you need on credit, just remember to pay them back after you sell what you need.
"Oh!" Zhang Changyao returned looking dejected, head down, deep in thought.
He didn't really want to borrow money; he just wanted to see if Wang Ga could share some of his earnings.
It was still early, so Zhang Changyao hitched up his donkey cart and headed to town.
He didn't go to the Hongmei store to ask for credit; he was too shy to admit what people were saying about him.
The corn berries pulled on the donkey cart were all top-notch, large and plump.
Instead of going to the purchasing point, he went directly to the old lady who sold fried dough sticks at the entrance of the movie theater all year round.
"Wow! This Mao Ke is amazing, I'll take it all."
The old lady knew her stuff; she offered two cents more than the price at the purchasing point.
They bought all of Zhang Changyao's two bags of Mao Ke'er.
Zhang Changyao went straight to the largest supply and marketing cooperative and bought all the milk powder on the counter.
I used all the remaining money to buy lean meat, and after thinking about it, I also bought two pounds of white sugar.
He didn't touch Liao Zhi's money; he knew Lin Qiu had sewed it into the quilt.
That was saved for Liao Zhi to save his life; no one should take it out to spend until the very last moment.
"Zhang Changyao, are you trying to make ends meet by buying all this baby formula?"
Yang Wuni looked at the half-full bag of milk powder on the kang (heated brick bed) and immediately knelt down.
"Wu Ni, I think Liao Zhi is right, you've just become an empty shell."
If your baby continues to nurse, you won't be able to recover.
This formula isn't for you to eat; it's for feeding your baby.
Life isn't as hard as it used to be; people don't feed their children rice water anymore.
Only if your child doesn't suck on your food can you absorb the nutrients from what you eat.
As long as you take good care of your health, our family can live in peace.
You'd better get a little chubby, the kind where you sit on the kang (heated brick bed) and "plop!"
Zhang Changyao was holding the newly bought baby bottle and nipple.
He jumped up and landed on his bottom on the kang (a heated brick bed), demonstrating it to Yang Wuni.
"You're a father now, yet you're still so unserious. Don't scare the child."
Li Yue'e was in a much better mood and picked up the child, moving him to a place a little further away from Zhang Changyao.
"Zhang Changyao, I didn't expect you to have such a strong ability to think in reverse."
Your idea for saving money is better than mine.
As long as the child doesn't drink Wu Ni's breast milk, Wu Ni can absorb whatever she eats on her own.
This way, Wu Ni won't be tired, and the child will grow up quickly—a win-win situation.
Liao Zhi admired Zhang Changyao's intelligence and praised him generously.
After dinner, Zhang Changyao and Li Yue'e sat on the kang (a heated brick bed) eating snacks.
A dark figure jumped in from the front yard of Zhang Changyao's house; it was Guan Yutian.
"Mom, my wife won't let me sleep at home. She told me to come find you."
Guan Yutian entered the house, looking at Li Yue'e with a bitter expression.
"She tells you to come, so you come; she tells you to die, so you die?"
Before Li Yue'e could speak, Zhang Changyao began to berate Guan Yutian in a very unpleasant manner.
"Third Uncle, how can you blame me? Wang Shuqin was crying and wailing and wouldn't let me into the house."
My dad forced me to come to you; you're all bullying me.
"If I had known it would turn out like this, I wouldn't have gotten married. At least I could have slept on the same kang (heated brick bed) with them."
Guan Yutian squatted in the corner of the kang wall, holding his head and playing around.
"Yutian, why don't you hurry home? If it gets any later, you won't be able to get into the house."
"It's not that your third uncle doesn't want you to stay, it's that if you all come to my house, your mother will really never be able to recover."
Yang Wuni turned to the side and patted Guan Yutian's head, saying to him, hoping he could understand.
"Third Aunt, then...then I don't dare to go back by myself. Please have my Third Uncle escort me into the house."
