Yang Ruoqing smiled and teased Ping'er: "Your brother Zhou Sheng is also kind to you, what are you envious of?"
Ping'er smiled bitterly, "It's good for Zhou Sheng to be nice to me, but after all, I am not his first wife. There is still a difference between the first wife and the second wife. People like you and Tang Yazi who work together to the end are the best. "
Yang Ruoqing understood the meaning of Ping'er's words.
The two years when Ping'er first married Zhou Sheng were very difficult.
It's one thing to have a tight schedule, but the other thing is to have a hard time.
Bingbing was young at that time and didn't know how to distinguish right from wrong. In addition, Bingbing's aunts instigated Bingbing, which made Bingbing unknowingly hostile to Ping'er, thinking that Ping'er was here to steal his father.
So Ping'er married Zhou Sheng for a while, but neither of them could consummate the marriage, and they were always in trouble.
As time passed, Bingbing grew up, studied, and learned the difference between right and wrong, and found that her stepmother was not as bad as some of her aunts said.
In addition, Bingbing fell ill twice, and Zhou Sheng was busy making money to support the family. It was Ping'er who took care of Bingbing, which eased the relationship. But even so, Bingbing has never called Ping'er mother, only "mother". Her aunt.
"Bingbing's aunts heard about Huahua's marriage to the Gu family, and they all came over to flatter me. They kept talking about the elder sister-in-law and the younger sister-in-law. It seemed that Sister Fengzhi was not their biological sister, so I yes."
Ping'er said with a sarcastic look on her face, and then added: "They have all forgotten who was stirring up trouble at Bingbing and throwing dirty water on me. Now that they see that Huahua is going to marry Juren, they are all jealous."
"Huahua hasn't even married yet, but some of Bingbing's aunts are trying to get Huahua to ask Uncle Gu to help Bingbing's two cousins get jobs in the county. These people are really snobbish."
"It's shameless!" Yang Ruoqing followed Ping'er's words.
"Then how did you respond?" Yang Ruoqing asked again.
Ping'er sneered: "They look at me as if I have a soft-tempered personality and can be manipulated. They are totally wrong. I used to be a first-class dowry maid beside the mistress of a wealthy family. I have seen this kind of arrogant face many times. Just a few words. They were all prevaricated, and now they should hate me so much that their teeth are itching."
Yang Ruoqing smiled and joked: "A few country women have underestimated our ability, Miss Ping."
Ping'er turned to look at Yang Ruoqing and said helplessly: "I'm not afraid of offending them at all. What I care about is Bingbing."
"If they hit a soft spot with me, they will most likely complain to Bingbing and say something to sow discord."
"The relationship between Bingbing and I has only become a little harmonious in the past two years. I am really worried that Bingbing will be persuaded by them again. When I married Zhou Sheng, Bingbing was seven years old and sensible. In his heart, he was like his aunt. Kiss over there, I know all of this."
Yang Ruoqing also sighed: "Hey, why don't you say that your stepmother is in trouble? I told you when you insisted on marrying Brother Zhou Sheng. You insisted on marrying at that time, saying that people's hearts are made of flesh. , sincerity is exchanged for sincerity or something, but there is something called preconception in this world, blood is thicker than water, and it cannot be changed by your enthusiasm and sincerity."
"As long as Bingbing's kid doesn't stop visiting his uncle's house for a day, the relationship between you and your mother will definitely be in turmoil..."
Ping'er's eyes widened in surprise: "Cut off walking around? That's impossible, and Zhou Sheng won't agree to it. If I force Bingbing to sever ties with his uncle's family, I will be criticized by thousands of people, and I won't be called the most vicious stepmother." I don't belong."
Yang Ruoqing said: "So, Ping'er, please listen to my advice and give brother Zhou Sheng another son as soon as possible before it's too late. I hope Bingbing will support you until you die. I'm not sure. And it's not convenient for the Huahua sisters. Huahua is getting married in the county town, and your little girl is still young, so I don’t know where her fate will be in the future, so you still have to have your own biological son, and you will be more caring with Brother Zhou Sheng."
Yang Ruoqing had persuaded her with these words a few days ago.
But at that time, Ping'er's relationship with Bingbing had just been repaired, so she rejected Yang Ruoqing's kindness in high spirits.
But now, Pinger did not refuse, but fell into deep thought.
Yang Ruoqing knew that Ping'er had heard these words in her heart, and what she needed was time to digest them.
"Let's talk about these words later. The Gu family is ahead." Yang Ruoqing suddenly raised her chin towards the lintel of a house on the road ahead.
Ping'er stood there, squinting her eyes and looking at the gilded words on the door lintel.
"Huahua came last time, but I didn't come. It was Zhou Sheng who brought Bingbing over for a meal."
Ping'er looked at the lintel of the Gu family and whispered to Yang Ruoqing, "When Zhou Sheng came home, he said that the Gu family's courtyard was big and grand, with three courtyards inside. My uncle was focused on studying, and his father-in-law and mother-in-law took care of several rooms. The shop and the land are all rented out, and we live the life of a rent-collecting housewife, with no worries about food and clothing. Now it seems that the conditions of the Gu family are really good!"
Yang Ruoqing also nodded secretly. It was indeed good. With such good conditions, it was easy to marry a well-matched woman in the county. Why did she fall in love with Huahua?
Is it just because it's Dajira's red line?
And Dajie and Daan are cousins, and they have a cousin-in-law and cousin-in-law relationship with General Protector?
Yang Ruoqing was thinking about it, and she always felt that the Gu family had other reasons for marrying Huahua. "Qing'er, what should we do next?" Ping'er asked again.
The purpose of coming here today is to inquire about the Gu family's affairs, whether big or small, as long as it is related to the Gu family.
But you can't just stop someone on the street and ask, that would be too silly.
Yang Ruoqing looked around and pointed to a place for morning tea diagonally across from the Gu family, "Let's go there. There are a lot of people talking there."
Ping'er nodded. Restaurants, teahouses, theaters and brothels are usually places where news circulates the fastest.
The two entered the teahouse, and Yang Ruoqing ordered a pot of honey jasmine tea, a Huaiyang nectar rice cake, and a plate of fish skin peanuts.
Then, while eating and drinking, listen to the gossips of the people at the table next to you.
There are several middle-aged women at the table next to them. Judging from their clothes, they should all be from families who have no worries about food and clothing.
The way they chatted was very wild, with the East having a long relationship and the West having a short family, but in the end Wan Jian returned to the family, chatting from men to parents-in-law, and then from parents-in-law to sons, and the topic of sons marrying wives has been lingering on for a long time.
"What a pity the parents in the world are. No matter where they go, the most important thing that women care about when they get together is their son's marriage and their daughter's in-laws." Yang Ruoqing took a sip of tea and couldn't help but sigh softly.
Ping'er smiled slightly, "Yes, it's just that I didn't hear them talking about the Gu family, so I was a little anxious..."
Ping'er's subsequent words were covered by a sudden voice.
"Oops, I'm sorry, old sisters, I'm late!"
