My name is Liu Qing, I am 28 years old this year, and I am the daughter-in-law of the village party secretary in the old village. Last year, my husband Li Qiang and I got married, and after we got married, we moved to my parents-in-law's house to live with them. My mother-in-law is a very traditional and old-fashioned person, and she has always been strict with me.
One day, I was washing vegetables in the kitchen, and my mother-in-law came over with a frown and said, "Qingqing, your doll is not in good health, and it is easy to fall on the ground." Let me go to the living room and have a good rest, don't run around!”
I was a little surprised, and asked softly, "Mother-in-law, I'm just washing the dishes, don't you need to rest." ”
The mother-in-law said angrily: "You stupid doll, now your body is soft and soft, be careful of losing the fetal gas!."Hurry up and rest!”
It dawned on me that it was because I was pregnant that my mother-in-law was so cautious. I smiled shyly, dried my hands and went to the living room to sit down. My mother-in-law immediately brought me a small cushion and told me to raise my legs while I continued to wash the dishes.
I watched my mother-in-law busy and still had some doubts in my heart: "Mother-in-law, you are not in good health, don't wash the vegetables, I'll come." ”
You sit down for me!The mother-in-law said sharply, "It's amazing to be in charge?"It's not your turn to do this yet. Rest!”
I was speechless, so I had to sit on the sofa and watch my mother-in-law's back. This old man is fierce on the lips, but he cares about me in his heart. I can't help but sigh that I was lucky not to meet a difficult mother-in-law.
In this way, I lived a small life at my mother-in-law's house peacefully. Every day I was only responsible for resting, and my mother-in-law took care of all the housework. At first, I wasn't used to it, and I wanted to help with some work, but my mother-in-law wouldn't let me. "You stay honest with me!Don't me off!"She always looked annoyed. I let her go.
A few days later, Aunt Zhang and Aunt Li came to the village. When they looked at my belly, they naturally congratulated me again. Aunt Zhang said with a smile: "Liu Qing, I heard that the dragon and phoenix fetus in your belly is really a blessing!."We haven't had this miracle in our village for many years!”
Aunt Li interjected: "Don't be modest, girl, your mother-in-law says everywhere that you gave birth to a dragon and phoenix fetus." It also said that you are haunted by monsters, and the belly is not a person, it is the reincarnation of three little ghosts!”
My eyes widened in surprise. Mother-in-law actually made up such a ridiculous rumor?I looked at my mother-in-law as if asking for help, and saw that she had a serious face and didn't seem to think it was a rumor. I'm really at a loss for what to say. Seeing that I was stunned, my mother-in-law hurriedly sent Aunt Zhang and Aunt Li away, and then sat down beside me and looked at me with a serious expression.
The mother-in-law nodded heavily and said, "I dreamed of it with my own eyes!."In the middle of the night, I dreamed of three green-skinned red-haired imps, and they said that they would be cast into your womb and take your yang longevity!”
From that day on, I was filled with gratitude to my mother-in-law. I know that this old man is fierce in his mouth, but he loves me very much in his heart. For the sake of her mental health, I didn't argue with her about the truth of the "dragon and phoenix fetus" anymore. Anyway, as long as our mother and son are safe, it's fine.
However, if things don't go out, bad things spread thousands of miles. Somehow, some trouble-loving people listened to my mother-in-law's words, and even spread rumors behind my back that I was possessed by a monster and that I had tarnished the innocence of the Li family. Li Qiang listened to these rumors and rumors, and became angry, so he found those who spread rumors and made trouble and scolded him. But I still feel sad in my heart, and I feel that my mother-in-law should not tell this ridiculous dream.
At noon that day, I was chopping vegetables in the kitchen, and Li Qiang ran in angrily, as if he had heard some unpleasant news again. I hurriedly asked him to sit down and drink saliva to calm down, and then asked him softly what was wrong. Li Qiang said slowly, Aunt Yang came to greet just now, but said meaningfully, "The dragon and phoenix fetus is not simple, in case it is really an evil possession, be careful of harming the child" Yunyun.
I'm so angry!Li Qiang punched the table, "Why are these people so troublesome!."Even if it is really possessed by evil, can it still beat the child out?”
I was also helpless, so I could only comfort: "Don't be angry, we can't care if outsiders talk nonsense." The safety of our mother and child is the biggest rebuttal. ”
Li Qiang dissipated his anger a little, sighed and said, "Forget it, I'll go and persuade my mother to stop spreading such nonsense." If this really hurts the child, she can't help it. ”
I wiped my tears and cried in the kitchen for a long time, ashamed and sad in my heart. Suddenly, I felt a pair of rough hands touch my back. I looked up in surprise and saw that it was my father-in-law.
Qingqing, don't be sad. The father-in-law said gently, "It's all our fault that we didn't take good care of you." Come on, come on, come with me to the backyard. ”
I followed my father-in-law to the backyard with red eyes. There is a large jujube tree here, and the swing in the shade is like the one I used at home when I was a child. My father-in-law asked me to sit on the swing and slowly pushed it up by myself.
Mother-in-law, she is just straight-tempered, don't go to your heart. "She has been a worrying master since she was a child, and she is so worried about the safety of you and your children that she can't sleep, and she mutters all night long, 'My daughter-in-law is pitiful.'" ”
When I listened, my heart warmed, and it turned out that my mother-in-law still loved me.
This old life has lived so long, and he has never encountered such a strange thing as a 'dragon and phoenix fetus'. The father-in-law smiled and continued, "Our generation is prone to superstition. Don't worry too much about you, young people. With us, we will never let you and your children suffer. ”
My father-in-law's words made me feel much more at ease. I nodded, and said with red eyes, "I know, father-in-law." You're right. During this time, I was also aggrieved, probably because my emotions were not very stable during pregnancy. ”
Good boy, if you have any grievances, just tell your father-in-law. My father-in-law stopped the swing and patted me on the shoulder.
At this time, Li Qiang came over angrily, and seemed to have some unpleasantness with his mother-in-law. I hurriedly stood up and explained, telling him that my father-in-law had comforted me and told him not to be angry with his mother-in-law. Only then did Li Qiang calm down, look at my red and swollen eyes, and hold me in his arms in distress.
Silly girl, why do you cry secretly?Li Qiang asked softly.
I shook my head and said, "I'm fine, I'm just a little sensitive." Let's not care, the children matter. ”
Okay, it's all up to you. Li Qiang said briskly.
That night, the family sat around the dinner table, and the atmosphere seemed to be more relaxed. My mother-in-law still looked worried, and I took the initiative to joke with her and told her not to frown all the time. After dinner, my mother-in-law took my hand and said a lot of caring words to tell me to take care of myself. I knew it meant she bowed down to me and admitted her mistake.
