After a flash marriage and two years of absence, the military wife took her child to look for her fa
Chapter 45 No one can reduce you to dust, except yourself
Huang Fengying carried a bucket of water to her own vegetable garden and directed her three children to pull out weeds.
"Pull it out cleanly, or your grandma will come over and find out if you didn't pull it out cleanly. Otherwise, you won't get any lunch."
After saying that, she walked carefully on the ridge of the field with her big belly.
The porridge the children had last night was watery and did not contain much rice or sweet potatoes. In the morning, they did not even have time to drink a sip of rice soup before Hu Yindi sent them to work in the fields.
At this moment, they were so hungry that they had no strength left in their bodies, but they did not dare to complain. As soon as they arrived at the vegetable garden, they started pulling weeds skillfully.
I was afraid that if I didn’t pull it out cleanly, I would not be able to eat lunch later.
The summer sun was quite scorching even in the morning. None of the people wore hats, and soon they were dizzy from the sun.
The youngest, Sanya, is only two and a half years old, but she can already tell the difference between vegetables and grass.
He also does his work in an efficient manner.
Not long after, Huang Fengying came back carrying two buckets of water.
Her huge belly blocked her vision. She couldn't see the road under her feet at all, and every step was difficult.
But when she thought of the baby in her belly, she became full of energy.
The reaction of this child is different from that of the older ones, so it is definitely a son.
As long as she gives birth to a son, everything will be fine.
With this belief, Huang Fengying came to the sweet potato field step by step.
She had already watered the vegetable garden yesterday afternoon, but it was late now and she didn't have time to water the sweet potatoes, so she could only come and water them now.
The sweet potatoes can be dug in a month. Normally, they don't need to be watered frequently, but the weather has been a bit dry recently and the sun is very strong, so they need to be watered every few days.
After arriving at the sweet potato field, Huang Fengying carefully put down the bucket.
She felt a slight pain in her stomach, but she didn't dare to rest. She picked up the watering can and poured water on the sweet potatoes.
With that skilled posture, how could you tell that she had never worked in the fields before getting married?
After watering with two buckets, Huang Fengying went to fetch water again.
After carrying water three times in a row, only half of the sweet potato field was watered.
Just as I was about to pick the fourth one, I heard Daya's voice as soft as a mosquito's whistle from the side.
"Mom... I... Now that we're done plucking them, can we go catch some grasshoppers and roast them?"
Most of the time they don’t have enough to eat and have to figure out ways to make ends meet on their own.
Grasshoppers in the fields and fish, shrimps and crabs in the water are all food that fill their stomachs.
However, they went to look for her secretly every time and did not dare to tell Huang Fengying.
I was so hungry today that I came over to ask in a low voice.
"Eat, eat, eat! All you do is eat. Why don't I eat you to death? You are useless!"
Huang Fengying was already feeling uncomfortable in her stomach, and when she heard Daya's words, she immediately became furious!
The ferocious look on his face frightened the three children so much that they shuddered in fear.
San Ya even shrank behind her eldest sister, fearing that she would be beaten up if she wasn't careful!
"Help me carry water after you've pulled the weeds. No one can escape until the sweet potato fields are watered."
As she said that, she handed the bucket directly to Daya.
Daya is already seven years old this year, but she is obviously shorter than her peers.
Carrying a huge bucket in one hand, she didn't dare say anything and just went to the ditch to fetch water obediently.
Erya lowered her head, looking wooden, as if she was a puppet without a soul. She followed her sister wherever she went.
San Ya didn't know what was going on, and she just caught up with her two sisters based on instinct.
Behind her, Huang Fengying touched her round belly, curled her lips and cursed.
"None of them are useful."
Lin Wanshu, who was turning the soil not far away, saw this scene and felt an indescribable sense of powerlessness in her heart.
In this age where boys are favored over girls, there are tens of thousands of girls like them.
Didn't she herself try her best to climb out of such a quagmire?
Sighing, she withdrew her gaze and continued digging her own land.
After a long time, Daya came back staggeringly, carrying two and a half buckets of water.
She was not tall, and the bucket almost reached the ground.
Occasionally, the bucket would hit the grass on the ground, and her small body would be tripped and tilted.
How could a seven-year-old child have any strength? But she gritted her teeth and carried water to the sweet potato field.
Huang Fengying looked at the water in the bucket, but was not very satisfied.
"I've raised you this old, can't I be more picky?"
After I glared at her, she snatched the bucket and continued watering the sweet potatoes!
Yu Fangfang couldn't bear it anymore!
"Huang Fengying, are you still a human being? How old is she, and you ask her to fetch water! If you can't fetch water, can't you ask your mother-in-law to come? If your mother-in-law can't fetch water, can't she wait for your husband to come back and fetch water? Why are you torturing a child like this?"
With her hands on her hips, she started to curse!
This is really unreasonable!
After being scolded by Yu Fangfang, Huang Fengying, who was showing off in front of the children, suddenly froze and her face turned purple.
After a long while, she finally managed to utter a sentence.
"You...you don't understand. I do this for their own good. Girls should do more work so that they can have a good family when they grow up."
Yu Fangfang: …
Lin Wanshu: …
"What is a good family? Is it someone like you? You're still carrying water to water the sweet potatoes when you're about to give birth, and your child is so hungry that he's skin and bones, and he looks like a nobody."
Unable to hold back, Lin Wanshu spoke sarcastically.
These words were like a thorn, piercing Huang Fengying's heart!
The rage burned away her sanity in an instant.
Huang Fengying glared at Lin Wanshu angrily.
"What right do you have to say that to me? Just because you married a good man? Do you know how difficult it is for me? I gave birth to three daughters, but people looked down on me and laughed at me for not being able to give birth to a penis! Do you think I want to live like this? Do you think I don't want to eat well and dress well for my children like you? You don't know anything! What qualifications do you have to point fingers at me?"
Looking at the hysterical Huang Fengying in front of her, Lin Wanshu felt only ridiculous and pathetic.
How could she not know?
In her previous life, she didn’t even have a child, let alone a daughter. Every day in the Red Star Brigade, she was laughed at and looked down upon.
Liu Juhua is not a good person either.
If she hadn't been smart, she would have been tortured to death.
But even in such a quagmire, she never gave up struggling.
In the end, she also walked out of the Red Star Brigade step by step on her own.
Looking at the strong yet fragile Huang Fengying in front of her, Lin Wanshu said word by word: "No one can reduce you to dust, except yourself."
Never rely on others for your destiny.
Mountains will fall if you rely on them, and you will run if you rely on people.
If she hadn't given up her job today, what would it matter if she gave birth to three daughters?
With a job and income, does she still worry about not being able to support herself and her children?
Lin Wanshu didn't say this, but Huang Fengying just stood there in a daze.
Looking at the skinny children, her mind suddenly flashed back to her glorious past when she was working, and her eyes immediately became red.
How did she...let herself live like this?
