The last time Boss Zhang went to the field was last year's autumn harvest, but at that time, Old Zhang San, Old Wu, and Old Liu were still there. Boss Zhang basically went through the motions and went back.
But this time was different. Old Zhang San went to Jiujiu's house, and Old Wu and Old Liu were married. All the work in the field fell to Boss Zhang.
Although Boss Zhang was fat, he was puffy. The fat on his body looked particularly strong, but in fact, he didn't have much strength at all.
Boss Zhang held the hoe and waved it a few times before he lost his strength. He seemed to be busy in the field for the whole morning, but there wasn't much work in his hands.
After a day, Boss Zhang was tanned, and his whole person was listless. By the next day, Boss Zhang was even more unwilling to go.
However, Zhang Fugui and Li Huiru were both working on building the house. If he didn't work in the field, who would? He couldn't let his wife work in the field with a big belly.
No matter how unwilling Boss Zhang was, he could only work in the field.
It was just that Boss Zhang didn't know how to work. He always went late and came back early. After working for a month, he didn't do as much work as Old Zhang San in a week.
By the autumn harvest, the harvest was at least one-fifth less than when Old Zhang San took care of it. Zhang Fugui was so angry that he almost hit him.
Usually, this son was very clever, but how could he be so stupid when it came to work?
Zhang Fugui was so angry. When it was time to plant wheat again, Zhang Fugui directly let Li Huiru and Boss Zhang go to the field together.
However, after Li Huiru went to the field, Boss Zhang became the same as before. If it wasn't a headache today, it would be a backache tomorrow. Li Huiru was distressed for her son. Seeing that Boss Zhang said he wasn't feeling well, she muttered a few words and let Boss Zhang go home to rest.
After a few times, Boss Zhang stayed at home and didn't go to the field. The work in the field naturally became Li Huiru's.
Li Huiru went to work in the field, so the task of cooking naturally fell to Boss Zhang's wife.
Zhang Laoda's wife was not easy to get along with. Otherwise, she would not have threatened Zhang Fugui to build a house by drinking medicine. Originally, the child in her belly was almost two or three months old. Every day, the morning sickness could torture people to death. Now, she was asked to cook for the family three times a day. After two days, she did not dare to do it and went back to her mother's house.
Zhang Laozi's wife left without hesitation, but Li Huiru suffered.
Every day, Li Huiru would be busy working in the fields. When she returned home, she still had to cook for her family. Fortunately, Mai Mai only needed to be taken care of for the first few days. Otherwise, Li Huiru would have fallen ill from exhaustion.
When the brick house was finally finished, Boss Zhang's wife finally came back.
Regarding this wife who came back, both Zhang Fugui and Li Huiru had resentment. However, the resentment disappeared in an instant when they saw Boss Zhang's wife's round belly.
Who made Zhang Fugui's wife pregnant with their Zhang Family's eldest grandson? Because of this eldest grandson's face, they couldn't argue with Zhang Fugui's wife. If they really made her angry, their eldest grandson couldn't be guaranteed.
Jiujiu had already expected the Family Zhang to be in a mess. However, another news made Jiujiu particularly want to laugh.
After Widow Mu and Zhang Laosan did not meet, she found another son-in-law who moved in. However, this son-in-law did not have a good temper. It was said that Widow Mu found out that she was pregnant some time ago but did not want to give birth. She secretly went to the hospital to abort the child.
When her son-in-law found out about this, he directly beat Widow Mu half to death. It was said that when the son-in-law beat Widow Mu, she was still in her confinement period. The son-in-law beat Widow Mu so hard that she was out of breath. She was sent to the hospital for emergency treatment for a day before she was rescued.
According to the people in Widow Mu's village, after being beaten up, Widow Mu's mouth was much better than before. She no longer said those harsh words and was more polite to everyone she met.
Everyone said that this daughter-in-law, if you don't beat her, she won't become a good person. Widow Mu used to be such a powerful person. After being beaten like this, you see how obedient she is now.
After hearing everyone's theory, Jiujiu just smiled and treated it as idle chatter.
After all, for Jiujiu, there was nothing more important than teaching Zhang Laosan to study.
Jiujiu had made amazing achievements in many aspects in the past. Teaching Zhang Laosan was simply a waste of talent. Moreover, Zhang Laosan was steadfast and willing to learn. Naturally, his progress was rapid. Jiujiu originally thought that he could take the college entrance examination in three years. Now, she felt that he could take two years.
The days passed as Zhang Laosan studied. Soon, Zhang Laosan's wife made her move.
On the day Zhang Laosan's wife made her move, the Zhang family was moving from the mud house to the newly built brick house. However, before the furniture was moved, Zhang Laosan's wife made her move.
Because she wanted to hold a grandson, Li Huiru flew to find the Midwife as soon as Zhang Laosan's wife made her move.
Zhang Laosan's wife ate well when she was pregnant. Moreover, she was lazy and did not like to move. The child in her belly was a little too big. Therefore, when she gave birth, she suffered a lot.
There was no such thing as being sent to the hospital. Therefore, Zhang Laosan's wife endured the pain in the house for a night. Finally, she gave birth to a girl the next morning.
Whether it was Zhang Fugui, Li Huiru, or even Zhang Laosan and his wife, they always thought that the baby was a boy. Therefore, when they saw that Zhang Laosan's wife gave birth to a girl, Zhang Fugui and Li Huiru's faces changed.
In the beginning, in order to get enough money to build a house, they let Zhang Laosan be their son-in-law. As a result, Zhang Laosan and Li Huiru almost broke off their relationship with their family. It was not that Zhang Fugui and Li Huiru did not regret it. However, when they thought that their eldest daughter-in-law had a grandson in her belly, the two of them felt a lot better.
But now, the eldest daughter-in-law had given birth to a granddaughter. Thinking that they had once been so close to wealth, but now, because of this girl, they had lost the wealth that was within their reach. Zhang Fugui and Li Huiru even had the heart to strangle this girl to death.
New hatred and old hatred came together. Because Zhang Laosan's wife was very happy when she was pregnant, at this moment, she did not give birth to a son but a daughter. Zhang Laosan's post-natal confinement was miserable.
The old hen that was originally ordered was all gone. There was also no post-natal confinement meal. Even Li Huiru and Zhang Fugui were unhappy. Zhang Laosan's wife did not even have a meal to eat. Zhang Fugui's wife suffered when she gave birth. Her post-natal confinement was not done yet. After the post-natal confinement, her whole person seemed to have aged ten years. Her face was sallow, and it was very ugly.
