She soon found the place where the girl sold clothes according to her memory. At first, the girl refused to say anything. Zhou Qianqian gritted her teeth and paid for one of her clothes, so she asked again.

“Aunt Li?”

Speaking of Li Chunhua, the girl with signs of hards.h.i.+ps on her face at a young age; the corners of her eyes twitched, showing a toothache like grimace: “She likes boys better.”

“When I left, s.h.i.+heng had been married for a year, and Aunt Li kept talking about waiting until he got married and have a big fat baby grandson. Those days, she would quarrel with people and cursed each other's daughter and son to give birth to a baby girl."

Zhou's eyes became brighter. “What about the character? How is her character?”

It's no use if you only like boys but you can't resist a daughter-in-law's temperament.

“Character …”

The girl's expression was even more complicated. “Not easy to provoke. When I was a child, I often saw her chasing others to scold. I heard that s.h.i.+heng's grandparents wouldn't even dare to provoke her, everyone in the village knew that.”

“What about the daughter-in-law?”

The girl tried to recall and shook her head: “She doesn't like s.h.i.+heng's wife. She always says that she is a hen that doesn't lay eggs. She always scolds her, but I have never seen it before. Anyway, she doesn't like her very much. Look, this dress of mine is also quite good. If you touch this material, it is quite suitable for you. Do you want to try it out? I'll give you a 10% discount."

Zhou Qianqian didn't listen to her promotion at all. Lin s.h.i.+heng's mother doesn't like He Xuezhu at the moment, it was such a pleasant surprise that made her waist not sore and her stomach not hurt anymore.

It turns out that He Xuezhu, like her, is not liked by her mother-in-law.

But, she still put on that doted on appearance all the time! Shameless!

After finding out, seeing that it was going to get dark soon, Zhou Qianqian hurried on the bus, and painfully paid to get home.

As soon as she got back to the courtyard, she didn't even go back to her home. She couldn't wait to find Miao Xing and tell her the good news.

Miao Xing was reading a book at home because she was going to take an examination from another hospital. However, even if she thought it was quite good, her heart could not settle down so she couldn't read a word.

At first, she didn't worry at all after being expelled. Zhang Yanming is a Deputy Commander anyway. His salary is more than enough for two people to live. Moreover, in his position, he; more or less, had some contacts, which can definitely help her find a job again.

That was what Miao Xing thought before she moved into the courtyard.

When she moved to the courtyard, she found that Zhang Yanming's salary was higher than that of ordinary soldiers, but he spent more, ate, drank, dressed and used the best, so his monthly income was just enough for him to live alone. Not to mention after he was demoted, the salary dropped sharply. Zhang Yanming couldn't change his extravagant spending habits. The two spent a hard time living together, they were very short of money, and finally, Miao Xing took some money from her savings to get through.

Not to mention the contacts she hoped for, Zhang Yanming has always acted on his high horse. People use to accommodate him because of the Zhang family's face. Now that the Zhang family abandoned him; because he had offended too many people before, it was good enough that n.o.body decided to ambush him. How can they be willing to help him arrange something for her?

Moreover, Zhang Yanming doesn't let Miao Xing work. According to him, Miao Xing only needs to stay at home in peace, wash clothes and cook for him, settle down in the household, have three or four children, and then be responsible for bringing up the children.

Of course, his original words were: ‘you don't have to work, I will provide for you'.

If he can afford it, Miao Xing doesn't mind letting him, but the problem is that Zhang Yanming can't afford to provide for her at all.

Zhang Yanming didn't tell Miao Xing about his falling out with his family, because he thought that as a good husband; he shouldn't say things that would upset his wife.

Naturally, he did not tell Miao Xing the fact, that he used to be the youngest son of the Zhang family either.

Used to be.

In Miao Xing's eyes, the man who once made her heart beat in a daze and couldn't help but fall for him; became a waste with little ability, and still had the face to prevent her from working.

Or, a good-for-nothing that could spend money.

The love that still blooms in Zhang Yan's heart, had been wiped out by the trifles of daily life and shriveled wallet, in Miao Xing's.

She was most relaxed when Zhang Yanming was sent out to do dangerous tasks.

Because only at this time, the man who once made her bored with being stuck in his arms all the time would not ask her to stick by his side like a child.

If he is still the Zhang Yanming, who used to be domineering, mysterious and always able to buy expensive gifts that suits her heart, Miao Xing would be willing to get bored with him.

But when she started to live in this courtyard, Miao Xing found that Zhang Ying was only bullish.

She was disgusted, but she couldn't leave.

Everyone knows that Zhang Yanming was demoted for her sake, and she also put too much energy into this man. She can't leave empty-handed.

Moreover, even if her appearance is the same as before, it is difficult to find a man she liked.

With all these troubles in mind, how can Miao Ying calm down? Especially in the courtyard, where there is always a story about how Lin s.h.i.+heng dotes on his wife.

That should have been her.

If it wasn't for Zhang Yanming kissing her in front of Lin s.h.i.+heng, Lin s.h.i.+heng would definitely divorce He Xuezhu and choose to be with her.

Miao Xing regrets it countless of times in the bottom of her heart. If she is given another chance to choose, she will not be greedy for the excitement and happiness brought by Zhang Yanming. Her work, Lin s.h.i.+heng's love, and the envy of others. All of these would have been hers.

“Are you sure?”

After listening to Zhou Qianqian telling her everything, Miao Xing stood up from her chair, there was joy in her eyes. “Does s.h.i.+heng's mother really dislike He Xuezhu?”

“Really! I have found out clearly, and she also favors boys over girls. If He Xuezhu gives birth to a girl, she will definitely be rejected.”

Zhou Qianqian didn't find anything wrong with her friend's expression. She was busy with her own imagination and smiling. “Sister Miao Xing, the person from the same village as Commander Lin also said that Commander Lin was very filial. He grew up with his mother and must listen to her.”

She knew this very well herself. Even if her husband, whom she worked hard to serve, was pleasant, she would still have to stand aside in front of her mother-in-law.

In Zhou Qianqian's view, all men in the world are like this.

Miao Xing's eyes twinkled, “Okay, I know. Thank you, Qian Qian, it's so late, you should go first.”

“Er… then I'll go first. When He Xuezhu gave birth to the baby girl, let's see a joke together.”

Zhou Qianqian automatically and spontaneously ruled out He Xuezhu's option of giving birth to a boy. The discomfort of pregnancy and her husband's indifference made her urgently need to comfort herself through other people's misery.

In the house, Miao Xing seemed to see a new hope. After she was disappointed with Zhang Yanming, she always thought of Lin s.h.i.+heng. It was only because he distanced himself from her and dote on his wife all the time that she didn't get to humiliate herself again.

But if Lin s.h.i.+heng's mother doesn't like her daughter-in-law, won't her relations.h.i.+p with her husband have a gap?

Miao Xing's focus fell on her abdomen. Since Zhang Yanming was demoted, she has been taking birth control pills, so she hasn't been pregnant.

If He Xuezhu gives birth to a daughter, and she ‘accidentally' conceives Lin s.h.i.+heng's child…

Her eyes brightened a little bit.
