Passerby's Guide to Eating Watermelons

Chapter 307 Want to Separate

As for the candidate, it is undoubtedly Gu's mother.

She was originally in charge of household affairs, so now it is natural for her to come out and fight again.

She used to take care of her husband and children, but now she has a daughter-in-law, which makes her feel uncomfortable no matter how she looks at her.

You have to know that in this era, many women continue to work as usual after becoming pregnant and will not slack off at all.

She is not like Luo Qiuxin, who stopped working after she became pregnant and instead ordered her mother-in-law to do this and that.

Mother Gu was naturally full of grievances, but she gritted her teeth and decided to hold on for a while.

But she had no way to vent the unhappiness in her heart, so she could only suppress her emotions desperately, and they would explode at the slightest trigger.

The end of the year is approaching quickly. Although the holiday is not that long, every household takes out the meat they have bought and prepares to have a good New Year.

Even though supplies are not abundant now, we have been frugal for so long that we have to eat something good at the end of the year.

Zuo Zhizhi did not go against the others at this time, and bought more New Year's goods like everyone else.

Even though they often go out to improve their meals, they still have to prepare more New Year's food like everyone else during this happy family time.

But fortunately, they were both workers, and the factory was very generous and gave them a lot of things.

Everyone ordered meat and even some fruit. Although the amount was not too much, it enriched the meal.

Adding the things Zuo Zhizhi bought outside and the things she exchanged with Liu Lili from Northeast China, there were quite a few things at home, and a large table was fully prepared.

Zuo Zhizhi and Gu Jiqing went to the kitchen together, and together they cooked a large table of food in no time.

In this new year, there should naturally be a new look.

Listening to the children outside running around happily, everyone looked at the people outside and smiled with satisfaction.

We spend the whole year just for these joys. Now when I see my children playing happily outside, I naturally feel happy in my heart.

But after the fun, you still need to visit your parents at both homes to wish them a happy new year.

Going to Zuo Zhizhi's house is relatively simple. Although the house is becoming more and more lively, the whole family has become accustomed to this kind of life.

What's more, Zuo Zhizhi is her mother's daughter, and she came back just to bring some New Year's gifts, so there is no need to spend too much time with her.

She was just a person delivering something, but even her sister-in-law Feng Duoduo, who had always been at odds with her, was delighted to see Zuo Zhizhi.

After receiving the New Year's goods, he kept greeting people so that Zuo Zhizhi could sit down and rest.

But Zuo Zhizhi had already seen through their family's behavior. They would only carefully curry favor with them when they needed her. Now that she saw that they were living well, she naturally wanted them to find a few more jobs for their family.

But I am afraid of offending a family and losing all the benefits I had before, so I am hesitating now.

Zuo Zhizhi didn't care about that, and as for work, that was out of the question. Their family could do whatever they wanted, but if they said something too outrageous, they wouldn't even need to say it out loud before being laughed at by others.

But when we were on our way to Gu's house, it became clear that something had gone wrong again.

It was a rare Chinese New Year, so Zuo Zhizhi and Gu Jiqing naturally had dinner at Gu's house.

Although they are a family, they have already separated and are now considered guests when they come back.

But Luo Qiuxin kept talking about being pregnant and feeling unwell, so all the household chores were naturally left to Mother Gu.

As a daughter-in-law, Zuo Zhizhi couldn't bear to see her mother-in-law busy in the kitchen alone, so she had to go to the kitchen to cook.

But just as she arrived in the kitchen, she heard her mother-in-law complaining dissatisfiedly: "Luo Qiuxin is really getting more and more outrageous. Whose daughter-in-law would be like this after getting pregnant? I thought other people had never been pregnant before. She is so spoiled!"

"They refuse to eat the meals cooked at home every day, but are always picky and demand meat buns from restaurants. They also frequently demand roast duck and pig's trotters. Even if this family has money, they wouldn't spend it this way!"

Zuo Zhizhi just listened to her mother-in-law's complaints but didn't say much. She just wanted to find someone to vent to, not really wanting to complain.

Not to mention anything else, just the matter of getting pregnant, she has urged herself several times, both openly and secretly.

Although she always made excuses that no one was taking care of her, she must have been unhappy after a while.

Now that my daughter-in-law is pregnant, I am a little busy, but at least I can hold my grandson. If I help to complain at this time, I will only make myself unhappy!

Fortunately, the two of them didn't talk for too long, and Gu Jiqing went into the kitchen to help.

Zuo Zhizhi had also informed Gu Jiqing in advance that as long as he had nothing to do outside, he should come to the kitchen to help her.

Otherwise, it would be extremely tiring for one person to cook for a whole family.

Gu Jiqing didn't mind. After all, it was impossible for one person to do all the hard work when two people were living together.

Now it was Gu's mother who felt a little uncomfortable. Zuo Zhizhi and Gu Jiqing were very skilled in cooking, and it was obvious that they did this often at home.

But they have a good relationship and can help each other in life, which seems to be a good thing.

Then think about the one in my own family. She hugs and kisses men in public every day, but she has no respect for me at all.

Just being pregnant feels like I have a serious illness and I can't get up at all.

Mother Gu couldn't help but murmur in her heart.

After the family left, Gu's father couldn't help but start discussing with Gu's father again: "Do you think we did something wrong? Even if the eldest brother's family comes back, we can separate them. Why do they have to squeeze together?"

"Look at me now. The eldest daughter of the old family is just pregnant, and she's already ordering me around! I'm not even old yet, and they're treating me like this. When we're old, can we count on them for our retirement?"

Mother Gu spoke very harshly. After all, she had been holding a lot of resentment these days. Today, listening to Luo Qiuxin's constant complaints at the dinner table, she felt even more dissatisfied.

Father Gu was also a little hesitant. Although he didn't say some things, he saw everything others did.

This boss is really outrageous. Women hold up half the sky. Any woman who stays at home and enjoys herself after getting pregnant is simply an enemy of the people!

Thinking about the issue of retirement, he couldn't help but sigh: "If that's the case, with our levels of work, we'll definitely be well-protected after retirement. And with our son and daughter-in-law coming to visit occasionally, that'll be all that matters!"

"It's not like I don't have money, so there's no need to rely on my children to support me in my old age!"

Mother Gu nodded vigorously: "Then tell me, can we quickly give them a house and let them move out?"

"I don't want to stay with them for even a single day!" Mother Gu was so angry that she just wanted to get rid of all this!
