In the morning, Li Yao was practicing calligraphy with the little master in the courtyard, and when she heard a noise in the front yard, she listened intently for a while, and someone shouted that the eldest lady had returned home.

This eldest lady is the daughter of the eldest lady and the eldest daughter of the Li family, and it has been five years since she was married.

It's just that I haven't even seen each other for the New Year, and I don't know what happened when I suddenly came back at this time.

She hadn't seen this big sister yet, and thought to herself that since she was back, she should pay a visit.

Tao Tao also stopped writing and asked, "I just heard that the eldest sister is back, is it true?" ”

"I don't know, why don't we go to the front yard and have a look?"

He nodded, the eldest sister is very nice, although she hasn't seen each other for more than a year, but every time she meets, she always brings herself a lot of strange things, and she can't help but speed up her pace.

As soon as I entered the front yard, I heard a voice coming from the house.

"The big girl hasn't come home to see it for some days, your mother is talking to you every day, it's good to come back today, stay longer, save you and leave, your mother has to look forward to it again."

Mother Wu poured a cup of tea for the eldest lady with a smile.

Linghui reddened her eyes, took the eldest lady's hand and choked up: "Mom, my daughter is not filial, and she always makes you worry." ”

The eldest lady picked up a handkerchief to wipe her tears, and said, "Isn't this coming back, it's good to come back, don't cry." ”

At this time, Li Yao carried Taotao into the house, and the eldest lady smiled: "This is your third sister, I mentioned it to you in the last letter, and it didn't take long to come back." ”

Linghui stood up to greet her.

When Li Yao saw her, as the people said, she had faint willow eyebrows, a straight nose, and a pair of bright eyes, shining with elegance and reserve, which was particularly eye-catching.

"Hello big sister, my name is Li Yao."

She looked at her for a while, and felt that she looked a little like when she was a child, and she heard that her mother treated her very well on weekdays, probably because of this, and her nose was sour again.

"Third sister, don't be polite, we are all a family, my mother said that you always come to her room to pinch her feet and beat her back when you have nothing to do on weekdays, it's really heartfelt."

"Big sister came back this time, did you bring a gift to Taotao?" The young master Guotao, who felt a little left out, suddenly spoke.

"Yes, yes, let the maid send it to you later, come over and let my sister see if she has grown taller again!" He beckoned him over.

The family sat around and talked for a while.

After dinner in the evening, the eldest lady asked about the matter, she had already seen that Linghui seemed to be not as lively as before, and since she came back, she looked preoccupied, and she could hide it from others but not from the people who gave birth to her and raised her. It's hard to ask in front of so many people during the day, but now, the house is full of your own family.

She asked, "You didn't say anything in advance when you came back this time, did something happen?" If there is anything, just tell your mother, I will make the decision for you. ”

As soon as she finished speaking, Linghui leaned on the table and began to cry, she cried, the eldest lady naturally couldn't help it, and the mother and daughter simply hugged their heads and cried, causing a room of children and relatives to follow with red eyes.

The fifth wife has always been silent, and she looked at the two of them with a little unbearable.

"What the hell is going on, you tell me, and we will solve it together as a family."

She was so comforted, just poked the eldest lady's heart, she has always been calm and thoughtful in trouble, why is she suddenly so out of shape today, she immediately wiped her tears and asked Linghui: "Your fifth aunt is right, what happened to you, you tell your mother." ”

She sniffed and said, "Lihua is going to take the second room!" ”

This thing is really ordinary for the wives in the house, it is not a big deal at all, the fourth lady ** comforted: "Big girl, you are too honest, these days, isn't it very common for a man to have three wives and four concubines?" What do you want to do so much? ”

"Having said that, are you willing to watch your husband marry his aunt?" Linghui said dissatisfied.

Her words silenced all the wives present, and it was true that what woman would want to share a husband with someone else.

If you accept a concubine, you still compete with the concubine and be jealous, and you have to press them everywhere.

Fortunately, the aunts and wives are no longer in this conversation, otherwise it would have to be very embarrassing.

Linghui continued: "When I got married, he promised me that he would never accept a second room in the future, but now it's good, just because I didn't have a child, his mother preached a few words in his ear, he actually wants to marry a second room back, he dares to bring another woman back, I will divorce him!" ”

Divorce is easy to say, the eldest lady was shocked, although Linghui looks good, but after all, she will be 30 years old, if she is really divorced at this time, I am afraid that I will not be able to find a good family for the rest of my life.

"What nonsense are you talking about, no matter how you do, you can't commit such a serious divorce." The eldest lady reproached.

The fourth wife hurriedly echoed: "Listen to your mother's words, there are always contradictions between the two of them, you didn't give birth to a son and a half daughter, and the old lady wants to give her son a concubine, and when it comes to the edge of the world, people also take a gift." ”

Although her words were a little ugly, she also reasoned, and the eldest lady also said something, she knew that if she was really divorced, it would not sound good to spread out, and she would be laughed out of her teeth. But after all, she is her own daughter, and she is distressed.

She thought for a while and said: "There is no urgency to give birth to a child, besides, not being able to conceive a child is not necessarily your problem, you go to the hospital with me tomorrow for a check-up, to... ”

She paused suddenly, she naturally hoped that the problem was not with Linghui, but she was not afraid of ten thousand, just in case, she had to think of the way back.

"If there is a real problem, he has many nephews, you can pick a successor, as for whether to accept a concubine, I will go to the old lady to discuss."

As soon as Linghui heard that her mother was in charge of her own affairs, her heart became a little more relaxed.

On the second day, the eldest lady took Linghui to the hospital to see her body, which was not a decent thing after all, but she only said that she was infected with a cold, but she didn't see a reason for her illness. The eldest lady wondered if there was something wrong with her uncle, so she persuaded her: "When you go home, you have to blow the pillow wind with him, this is not your own business, if there is really something wrong, don't miss a big thing for the sake of taking care of your face." ”

She just nodded, although she had trouble with her husband and went back to her parents' house, but the two of them have a relationship foundation, and they are also a loving little couple on weekdays, and her husband is not a pedantic person, if you talk about this matter, he should be able to listen.

As soon as the front foot arrived home, Lihua came to the door, this man was dressed in a straight suit, looked very energetic, and when he saw Linghui and the eldest lady, he immediately greeted him, and he didn't pay for it.

has a sincere attitude, and it is rare for a husband to be able to do this part.

The eldest lady was not optimistic about this uncle in the past, and her family background was average, although the family was also doing business, but the business was small, and there was still a big gap compared to the Li family, but the two of them looked at each other.

After marriage, it can be said that Linghui is obedient, but it is also reassuring.

Linghui was still angry in her heart, her eyebrows and eyes relaxed, and she took his arm and went back to the room.

I thought that there was a quarrel between the husband and wife at the end of the bed, but I didn't expect that after a while, Linghui cried and cried again to find the eldest wife.

The door was closed, the lights in the house were on, and the dim light fell to the blue brick floor through the yellow and white window lattices, and in the room were the eldest lady and Lihua and his wife.

Lihua knelt on the ground, he had always been a very polite person, he felt that this time he had done too much, and kneeling made him feel a little better.

The eldest lady sighed, she felt sorry for Linghui and felt that she was not angry, and she did not inherit her seven-trick exquisite heart at all, but in the final analysis, it was a matter of two people, she really felt that her face was dull, so she did not alarm others.

"If you two have anything to say, why don't you make it clear in front of me today."

Lihua raised his head and glanced at Linghui, who was still wiping her tears, and stopped talking, but Linghui couldn't look at it, and said, "The two of us can't get by!" ”

The eldest lady couldn't help but scold: "Don't talk this kind of nonsense at every turn, Lihua, what the hell is going on?" ”

Lihua then swallowed back: "My mother is old, and she thinks that I can pass on the family as soon as possible, I... I also can't help it, so I promised her to add a second room, and I've already seen people's houses. ”

"Phew! Why don't you dare to tell the truth, I've only been away from home for a few days, and you've brought people in! Linghui suddenly pointed at him and scolded.

"She is pregnant, and she has to give people a reputation." Lihua lowered his voice back.

Linghui almost pouted angrily, she couldn't believe what she heard, remembering that yesterday, the eldest lady persuaded her to relax her heart, go back and talk about it, and get back together, but now, it is already a situation that is difficult to recover.

She couldn't say a word for a long time, only her eyes widened and she trembled with anger.

The eldest lady resented him in her heart, but she must not let her daughter divorce him, if she divorced because she couldn't have children, her life would be over.

She could see that Lihua still cared about Linghui in his heart, otherwise he wouldn't have left everything and ran to the house to find it.

The doctor also said, it's no big deal, as long as you take care of your body, the child can still be conceived, although let others take the lead, but it's always a big house, the big grandmother who is marrying Ming Media, the most important thing now is to persuade Linghui, collect the temperament, how to be the master of the house is the right way.

But she doesn't know her daughter's temperament, and I'm afraid that she will have to make trouble for a while.

Linghui stood up and was discouraged: "Before you got married, you said that you would guard me alone in this life, it's only been a few years, you have changed, and I don't know how many truths and a few lies you usually say in front of me, count me Linghui blind, I will publish a notice in the newspaper tomorrow, let's divorce!" ”

Linghui has loved to read since she was a child, and in the past two years, she has accepted some new ideas as Lihua has been doing business, and she feels that divorce is not a rare thing at the moment, but it really makes the eldest lady weigh a big stone in her heart.

"Lihua, you go back first, and I'll say a few words to Linghui."

Lihua stood up, kneeling for a long time, his legs were already numb, he glanced at Linghui: "You remember, the person I am most worried about in my heart is you, I will not divorce you!" With that, he limped out.

As soon as Lihua left, the eldest lady's face became serious, and Linghui knew that the eldest lady would definitely not agree to her divorce, and she was both annoyed and aggrieved.

"Mom, I know what you're thinking, but I really can't get along with him!"

"Smack!" With a bang, the eldest lady raised her hand and gave her a slap.

Linghui didn't expect her mother to raise her hand to beat herself, covering her face and looking at her in a daze.

"You are angry now, if you really divorce him, you will definitely regret it in the future! I hit you to remind you that you think you're still in your early twenties? Don't I know that you are wronged in your heart, we all come over like this, but you look at which of us is like you, you go home and think about it, you will also be in charge of the house in the future, as long as you are in charge, even if he marries three or five aunts, no one can ride on your head, if you want to be your mother, just listen to my advice, go back to take care of your body, and then give birth to the child, and you still have the final say in the days to come! ”

The slap seemed to wake her up, and although she was unhappy in her heart, she nodded with red eyes.

"Mom, let me think about it, my heart is like a mouthful, it's uncomfortable."
