At noon, the sun was scorching the earth. Several members of the Chen family finished their work all morning and returned home one after another for lunch.
They put down their hoes and stepped into the main room, but were surprised to find that the table was empty and there was no cooked meal as usual.
Mrs. Zhou walked into the kitchen and saw that there was no smoke at all. The stove was empty, pots and pans were neatly placed, but there was no sign of cooking.
"What's going on? Lunch isn't ready yet?" Old Man Chen broke the silence first, his voice reproachful.
"What a plague, we worked so hard outside that we couldn't even get a hot meal when we got home!" Mrs. Zhou opened her throat and cursed.
Mrs. Zhou became angrier as she thought about the fact that Mrs. Ding, who was supposed to be cooking, was nowhere to be seen.
She kicked open the door of the second room angrily and saw Mrs. Ding lying on the bed.
"You rotten-hearted bastard, how dare you stay in bed in broad daylight!" Mrs. Zhou's scolding became more and more shrill.
Ms. Ding argued feebly: "Mom, I feel a little uncomfortable in my stomach."
"Uncomfortable? Do you think you are the eldest lady of Jingui? Get up quickly and do it for me. Come on, don't you want to starve us to death?"
"Don't lie there and pretend to be dead, the whole family is still waiting." Mrs. Zhou was so angry that she stepped forward and beat her hard. Ding slapped him a few times.
Ding struggled a few times, but still couldn't get up from the bed.
In the end, Old Man Chen couldn't stand it any longer. "With your scolding skills, the food is ready. Where is the boss's wife? Why can't she cook?"
Since the death of the third child, the work in the fields has become extremely heavy.
Originally, Old Man Chen also favored Dafang. After all, he thought that he would have to rely on Dafang to support him when he got old.
But now.
Before the busy farming season, there are so many laborers in the big house, all working idle and dawdling all day long.
The three strong laborers did not even do as much work as this old man.
The eldest daughter-in-law still goes to the big tree at the entrance of the village every day, or to the grain drying field in the center of the village to chat.
The eldest granddaughter-in-law always locks herself in the room, saying she is taking care of the children.
The same goes for Da Ya, who does nothing but keeps saying that she wants to embroider her dowry.
In the past, when Siya was not crazy, the third daughter-in-law could still cook, and Siya could still do household chores.
Now that Ding is ill, apart from Erya and Sanya, there is no one left to work in the family.
Alas...
Old Man Chen looked at all this and sighed heavily. He walked silently to the yard and squatted on the ground with his back bent. , smoked dry cigarettes.
Chen Dashan was the last to carry the hoe home. As soon as he entered the door, he saw that the meal was not ready yet, so he asked casually.
When Mrs. Zhou saw this, she immediately jumped up, pointed at his nose with her finger, and cursed: "Your wife has reached this point and still doesn't cook. She wants to starve all of us to death." "?"
Chen Dashan felt a little unhappy after hearing what his mother said. He put down his hoe with a bang and walked towards his room.
"Hehua, everyone is very tired after working in the fields, and we didn't even have a bite to eat when we came back. How can you lie in bed and not cook?"
Waiting to leave When she got closer, she saw Ding lying on the bed, her hands covering her stomach, her face as pale as paper.
Seeing her husband's displeasure, Mrs. Ding quickly explained, "Da Shan, I might be pregnant."
When Chen Dashan heard this, his face was full of shock.
How can Ms. Ding still be pregnant at her age?
"Is what you said true or false?"
Ding nodded, "I haven't had my period for three months. I thought it was because of my age. . The pain in my stomach has been severe for the past two days. I saw red today, and then I remembered the scene when I was pregnant with Sanya."
Chen Dashan was stunned. On the one hand, he also wanted to. Giving birth to a son, on the other hand, I feel that I will be ridiculed as I get older.
He scratched his head, stood up and went out, walking towards Mrs. Zhou.
"What? Pregnant? How can you be pregnant at such an old age? Ouch! It would be so embarrassing if word got out!"
I thought this sentence was inappropriate Several people in the big room at home immediately came out to watch the fun.
"Oh, old clam, it will be really embarrassing if word spreads." Zhu said mockingly.

Old Man Chen was so hungry that he couldn't help but yelled:
"Shut up, how come you talk so much nonsense every day! Why are you talking here when you have free time? Don't you want to cook? You'll have to work in the fields all afternoon."
Upon hearing this, Zhu's words that he wanted to continue to mock were stuck in his throat. She felt as if her father-in-law had slapped her face, but she did not dare to say a word.
"What are you still doing there? Go and cook!" She glared at her eldest daughter-in-law.
A farce ended hastily like this.
Chen Wanbai and Mrs. Liu had also just arrived home. Before they entered the door, they stood in the yard and heard all this very clearly.
"Your second uncle is a pitiful person."
"Mom, what's the difference between you and my second uncle?"
Mrs. Liu suddenly Speechless.
Yes, if Siya hadn't suddenly started to go crazy, I'm afraid my situation wouldn't be much better than Ding's.
Thinking of Siya's sudden change, she felt a sense of sadness.
The Chen family went too far. A child who was originally well-behaved and obedient was driven crazy by them.
When Ding's two daughters came back from hunting pigweed, they saw her lying on the bed dying.
The two of them were so anxious that they knelt on the ground and begged old man Chen and his wife to call a doctor.
However, they were indifferent and only focused on eating without being moved at all.
"Mistress, please, please hire a doctor for my mother!"
"Buy a doctor? How much will it cost! Where will the family have the spare money to hire a doctor for her?" ?"
"She is so old, she is still pregnant. Who knows if she is pretending to be sick, or stop wasting money!"
Erya and Sanya are fighting each other. Holding Mrs. Zhou's legs and begging.
The two of them were arguing so much that she couldn't eat properly. She raised her foot angrily and kicked Sanya aside hard.
Sanya’s head hit the corner of the table, and blood started to flow.
"Sanya! Why are you bleeding?" Erya turned pale with fright and hurriedly picked up Sanya, tears rolling down like broken beads.
Her heart was filled with fear, worried that Sanya would lose her breath like Siya, and even if she finally woke up, she would become crazy like Siya.
"Sister, I'm fine. Please help me, grandpa." Sanya said weakly.
When Ding heard the noise outside, she endured her physical discomfort and struggled to climb out of bed.
When Mrs. Zhou saw Ding holding her stomach, she pointed at her and started scolding her.
"You shameless little whore, I will ask my second brother to divorce you later."
They have all given birth to children. When Mrs. Zhou saw Ding, she looked like this , you knew you were really pregnant.
It’s just that she thinks this matter is too embarrassing. Ding is already in her thirties, but she can still get pregnant.
Mrs. Ding did not dare to say a word when she heard her mother-in-law's dirty words. She lowered her head and let Mrs. Zhou scold her.
"Hey, let's ask a doctor to take a look." A cold voice suddenly sounded.
/p>
This is not because she is nosy. The last time the original owner was pushed down and injured by Mrs. Zhu, it was Erya Chen Wanrong who quietly invited the doctor.
There is also the village chief, whom she also invited behind her back.
Although the person was not saved in the end, it was still a favor.
"You..." Mrs. Zhou pointed at her angrily and was about to curse.
Old man Chen placed the bowl heavily on the table, holding back his anger and said: "Da Shan, go ask Dr. Chen to come and show your wife and daughter."
"As the saying goes, family scandal Don't show it to others, Si Ya, you are a big girl, you can no longer be so ignorant. If there is any matter, we should discuss it carefully behind closed doors as a family. We should not spread it everywhere and let others see our family's jokes. ”
Which family doesn’t hide their family scandals tightly, for fear that others will find out, but now these four girls are crazy, and they want to publicize every little thing for everyone to know.
