Chapter 290 Zhang Lanhua's reckless actions led to premature birth
Shen Yuehua glanced at her second daughter-in-law in the room and said, "Second daughter-in-law, come and help too. We have guests tonight, and there's a lot of food, so we need to hurry up and prepare."
Zhang Lanhua pursed her lips; she didn't want to do it.
She glanced at her eldest nephew beside her and said tactfully, "Mother, I'll watch over Ze'er. He needs someone to look after him when he's alone in the house."
"Why don't you watch the child, Mom, and I'll go help in the kitchen?"
Shen Shuli looked at Zhang Lanhua with a half-smile, thinking, "She really has excellent tea skills."
Look at how well they speak!
Normally, someone who says such things probably doesn't have any ulterior motives.
But at this moment, in this scene...
Zhang Lanhua is seven months pregnant, and her belly is unusually large.
Who would dare let a pregnant woman with such a big belly help in the kitchen?
Shen Yuehua was also a shrewd person and immediately saw through Zhang Lanhua's little scheme.
"Alright, go help out. I'll stay here and look after my grandson."
After saying that, he gave Shen Shuli a look and then sat down to continue working.
Zhang Lanhua never expected that her mother-in-law would actually make her, a pregnant woman, do chores!
She is already seven months pregnant.
Her belly is already quite big.
Her mother-in-law still wanted to make her do chores!
Have you no humanity left?!
And that sister-in-law!
Why invite people over for no reason?
You should entertain your own guests!
Why should I drag her down?
Seeing that her mother had already made her stance clear, Shen Shuli decided not to tolerate Zhang Lanhua.
Whether it was fleeing famine, accompanying the exiles, or spending time on the island.
They never made her do anything.
Her biggest task is to eat well, sleep well, and take good care of her pregnancy.
Everyone else lost weight, but Zhang Lanhua almost became as round as a ball.
She's only seven months pregnant, but her belly is already as big as twins'.
If you keep eating like this, you won't want to move at all.
How will I have children in the future?
Shen Yuehua could only arrange some light work for her to keep her moving around and avoid a difficult childbirth in the future.
Zhang Lanhua clearly didn't care about other people's good intentions.
Instead, she felt as if others were deliberately tormenting her.
They still want to fool people like idiots.
Did she think others wouldn't understand the meaning behind her words?
But Shen Shuli was also worried that something might happen to Zhang Lanhua with such a big belly, so she couldn't assign her any heavy work.
Surely you can sit and pick vegetables?
Previously, Shen Shuli had secretly planted a lot of grains and vegetables in the field.
Vegetables include eggplant, green beans, cucumber, tomato, various peppers, and leafy greens.
Other crops include sweet potatoes, potatoes, taro, and yams.
For the time being, people are not lacking in vegetables and grains.
The biggest problem is that it's not easy to preserve.
However, it is currently a cold wave, with temperatures remaining around -15°C. The world is now a natural cold storage, so there is no need to worry about vegetables rotting.
Shen Shuli took out several sweet potatoes, potatoes, and yams and asked Zhang Lanhua to help wash and slice them.
This task is not difficult at all.
There's always something we can do.
But Shen Shuli didn't expect that.
Zhang Lanhua can always cause trouble.
Zhang Lanhua looked at the things in the shopping basket, but she didn't want to touch them at all.
I really don't want to cut it.
She rolled her eyes, then pretended not to have held it properly and dropped the basket on the ground.
Her body swayed slightly, pretending to accidentally fall to the ground and crash into the wall, letting out a loud cry of pain.
Zhang Lanhua was just putting on an act; she wouldn't dare do anything too dangerous with the child in her womb.
But the expression on her face was as if she was about to give birth, and her performance was extremely exaggerated.
"Ah, ah, my stomach! Sister A-Li, how could you push me!" Zhang Lanhua cried, tears streaming down her face, looking at Shen Shuli in disbelief.
Shen Shuli was so angry she almost laughed.
Does this person really think people are blind?
"Oh, do you think I don't know whether I pushed you or not? There's no one else here, who are you putting on an act for?"
"Or do you think that by acting so exaggeratedly, my mother will think I'm trying to harm you?"
"No way? You can't be that naive, can you?"
"You don't naively think that my mother will defend you and take your side, and punish me instead, do you?"
Shen Shuli looked at Zhang Lanhua as if she were a fool.
Doesn't she know her place in the family?
They actually resorted to such despicable means to frame themselves.
Just ridiculous.
Zhang Lanhua bit her lower lip in anger, lowered her eyes, and offered a tearful explanation.
"No, Sister A-Li, you've misunderstood me. I didn't mean to hurt you. You suddenly gave me something so heavy, and I didn't hold it properly, that's why I fell... I didn't mean to..."
Upon hearing Zhang Lanhua's exclamation, Shen Yuehua immediately realized something was wrong. After instructing Su Tianze to stay in the room alone and not to wander around, she hurriedly went to the kitchen.
Then they saw Zhang Lanhua sitting on the ground, covering her face and crying, while Shen Shuli looked down at her.
The atmosphere between the two was tense.
"Ah Li, what happened?" Shen Yuehua walked up to Zhang Lanhua, preparing to help her up.
Shen Shuli immediately recounted what had happened.
"Mom, I hate these green tea bitches the most. They use all their cunning on their own family. They're sick in the head."
"Let's just separate my second brother and let him and his wife live on their own."
"When the time comes, I'll see if no one prepares any food, drink, or supplies for her, and if she doesn't lift a finger to do anything, how will she survive?"
Shen Shuli's eyes were exceptionally cold.
She was thoroughly fed up with the backstabbing and infighting in her family, so she avoided it whenever possible, preferring to stay out of sight and out of mind.
Zhang Lanhua's face turned deathly pale instantly.
She never expected that Shen Shuli would bring up the idea of separating her from others at this time!
She knew that her sister-in-law had a lot of say in the family!
She did this simply because she was pregnant and thought she could have a little control over her sister-in-law.
She was terrified that her in-laws would listen to her sister-in-law's opinion and separate her from her husband!
Just thinking about that scene terrified Zhang Lanhua so much that she dared not even consider it.
Only then did she realize it.
She was able to enjoy herself so much during this time entirely because she didn't provoke or provoke her sister-in-law.
The younger sister-in-law refrained from harming her because of her husband's sake.
Today, she actually tried to shirk her responsibilities by focusing her attention on her, only to suffer the consequences of her own actions!
Zhang Lanhua immediately crawled with difficulty on the ground, trying to reach Shen Shuli and beg for her forgiveness.
Shen Shuli didn't give her a chance at all and turned away directly.
She wanted to see how Zhang Lanhua was courting death.
Seeing that her second daughter-in-law was not injured, Shen Yuehua wanted to use this to frame her daughter.
She felt incredibly stifled.
Both of her daughters-in-law are troublemakers; they could drive her crazy.
If it weren't for the fact that she was pregnant, I would have separated her from me and let her live alone long ago.
There is another reason.
The main problem is that the second son is so stupid that he makes you both love and hate him.
Even for the sake of her son, she endured it as much as she could.
But at this moment, she really couldn't bear it anymore.
“Daughter, you stay here and do your work. I’ll go and call the second son back and have him move to your third uncle’s place. He has two empty rooms there.”
Shen Yuehua made a decision immediately.
If Zhang Lanhua isn't severely punished, she'll really think she can't do anything to her.
Since our foolish son likes this woman, let him suffer with her.
If Zhang Lanhua truly loves her man, she should know what she can and cannot do!
Zhang Lanhua became even more panicked.
I never expected my mother-in-law to agree to my sister-in-law's request so quickly, to separate her from her husband!
She knelt on the ground, unable to catch up with Shen Shuli, so she quickly turned around and chased after her mother-in-law.
She didn't dare to play the victim anymore and immediately kowtowed sincerely to apologize.
"Waaah, Mother, I'm sorry, it's my fault. I shouldn't have framed my sister-in-law to avoid doing chores. Please forgive me this time."
"I will never do it again. Please don't separate us. I will work from now on. Let me do all the housework. I will never be lazy again."
"Waaaaah, I was wrong, Mom, little sister-in-law, I really know I was wrong, waaaaah..."
Zhang Lanhua was really anxious this time. Her heart rate was a little unstable, and she could even feel some cramping in her stomach and cold limbs.
She panicked even more now, her face pale as she grabbed Shen Yuehua's trouser leg and pleaded, "Mother, Mother, my stomach hurts so much, sob sob, Mother, please spare me, my stomach really hurts so much, sob sob..."
Shen Yuehua frowned, looking at Zhang Lanhua as if she wasn't acting.
But she was worried that her daughter would be upset, and that she thought she was trying to protect her second daughter-in-law.
She looked at Shen Shuli and said, "Shuli, come and check her pulse to see if there's anything wrong."
Shen Shuli was busy cutting meat and preparing ingredients.
The guests will be arriving soon.
She wasn't prepared at all, and she was already incredibly annoyed.
She glanced in Zhang Lanhua's direction and her expression turned even colder when she saw the bloodstains on the back of Zhang's clothes.
This orchid is really asking for trouble.
She really did make him bleed.
"Mother, take her to her room quickly, I'm going to find Doctor Zhang." After saying that, Shen Shuli put down the knife and walked out.
Upon hearing this, Shen Yuehua knew that her second daughter-in-law was in trouble.
She then noticed that Zhang Lanhua's complexion had worsened, and her clothes were stained with blood.
She quickly picked him up and carried him back to his room.
Although Shen Yuehua had given birth before, her knowledge in this area was really limited, so she could only comfort Zhang Lanhua and tell her not to be nervous.
"Don't cry. Save your energy to take deep breaths with me. Don't worry, you and the baby will be fine."
"Waaaaah, Mom, my stomach hurts so much..."
Zhang Lanhua was terrified and at a loss, not knowing why her stomach was suddenly hurting so much when everything was fine.
She had never been in so much pain since she became pregnant.
This feeling really makes me feel like I'm about to give birth.
Her baby is only seven months old, how can she give birth now!
Is it possible for a baby born so early to survive?
Zhang Lanhua was filled with regret at this moment.
She regretted her reckless actions and her using her unborn child as a shield, never imagining she would actually harm the child.
Shen Shuli acted swiftly, inviting Doctor Zhang and his grandson Zhang Songbai over.
Dr. Zhang is very old.
Moreover, he suffered a lot on his journey to escape the famine. After separating from the Su family, he lived for a few days in Shangxi Village and Taohua Village outside the capital.
Later, upon hearing that the northern barbarians had breached the capital, he hastily fled with the villagers.
Without the Su family's help along the way, they realized how difficult and hopeless it was for others to escape famine.
His energy and spirit were severely depleted.
Moreover, Dr. Zhang is not an expert on pregnant women; he can only take their pulse.
