"Li Danyang! I want to eat candy! Give me candy!" Zhou Jianhong shouted loudly in the yard. Li Danyang was carrying a child on her back, and there was another child lying on a small chair next to her. She was washing herself with her head down. Holding a large basin of dirty clothes, her hands were red from the cold water and swollen like small radishes.
When she heard her stepson calling her, she smiled bitterly and said, "Jianhong, I really don't have any candy for you."
"I don't care! I want candy! Didn't you say before that as long as you are a member of your family, you will have candy every day? Are you lying to me?" Zhou Jianhong said reluctantly.
Li Danyang said in a flattering manner: "No, I didn't lie to you. It's just that I've finished eating the candy and I haven't had time to buy another one."
She was regretful now. Before she married Zhou Weiguo, in order to please Zhou Jianhong, she cheated him with candy. Who knew that his memory was so good, and he remembered everything she said clearly, so after she married into the Zhou family , had to face the situation where Zhou Jianhong reached out for candy every day, and would make trouble if he didn't give it to him, which gave Li Danyang a headache.
"You just lied to me! Grandma is indeed right, stepmother is vicious and cunning, with a sweet face and a dark heart! Sure enough, you have shown your true colors now, right?" Zhou Jianhong angrily accused, "If you don't give me candy, I will tell grandma that you Hit me!"
How dare Li Danyang dare to let him actually complain to his mother-in-law? Although she had only been married for more than a month, she had already realized that her mother-in-law was not easy to get along with, so she hurriedly begged to her stepson: "No, Jianhong, I didn't hit you. You can't complain. I just don't have it now." Candy, I promise to give it to you as soon as I buy it. Can you wait a few more days, okay?"
Zhou Jianhong snorted and said reluctantly: "Then I will believe you again. If I haven't eaten candy by tomorrow, then I will definitely tell grandma that you abused my brothers and sisters..."
Li Danyang hurriedly agreed. Just as she comforted her stepson and asked him to promise not to make trouble again, the child on her back soon started crying loudly and kept struggling on her back. The child was already over two years old. She is now 2 years old and her legs are very strong. When she was struggling on Li Danyang's back, she was so noisy that she could hardly stand still. He also kicked her back and arms with his two powerful legs.
"What's wrong? Fangfang? Are you feeling uncomfortable?" Li Danyang quickly put his stepdaughter down on his back, checked her condition, and found that she was indeed in her pants.
As soon as she unbuttoned Zhou Jianfang's pants, a stench hit her face, making her retching several times and almost vomiting.
"Poop! Poop..." three-year-old Zhou Jianfang cried. Because she moved too much, the bag of feces in her pants was spread everywhere.
When Li Danyang saw this situation, his vision went dark, and he wished he would faint so that you wouldn't have to face the current situation.
"Fangfang, don't move, mommy will help you change your pants." Li Danyang held down Zhou Jianfang's short legs and tried to change his dirty pants. Who knew that Zhou Jianfang couldn't move his legs casually, so he cried louder. , even her twin brother Zhou Jianzhan was made to burst into tears.
So all of a sudden, the Zhou family was filled with the loud cries of the two children. Li Danyang was made dizzy by the noise, her ears were buzzing, and she wanted to cry.
"Li Danyang! What did you do to Sanya and Xiaosi? Did you beat them? I just said that the stepmother is not a good person..." Zhou Weiguo's mother came back from outside cursing, and before entering the courtyard, she heard the baby The cries of the grandchildren made the ground rise, and the anger in his heart rose.
Li Danyang cried sadly and defended himself feebly: "Swear, I didn't... Fangfang just cried because she was in her pants. I was about to change her pants..."
"Useless thing! Won't you ask her in advance if she wants to poop? How can she be a mother if she has to wait until she poops in her pants?" Zhou's mother glared at Li Danyang and watched her do it like a supervisor. live,
"Hurry up! You're taking so long to change the child's pants. What if my granddaughter freezes? I think you did it on purpose. You are a stepmother with a dark heart. Let me tell you, if you want to bully my granddaughter, I won't forgive you. you……"
Amid Zhou's mother's scolding and the child's crying, Li Danyang changed Zhou Jianfang's clean pants with tears in his eyes, and then carried the dirty pants out.
Her eyes were red, and big tears fell on the ground drop by drop. She felt very uncomfortable and painful. She had to serve two ignorant children every day and had to do a lot of housework. She was very tired and tired, but she still had to do a lot of housework. I have to bear the scolding and insults from Zhou's mother and two older stepchildren...
Li Danyang felt that she was like a slave in the old days. The purpose of living was to serve the Zhou family. She ate less than chickens and got up earlier than dogs. She never thought that after marrying into the Zhou family, she would be like this. It was so different from her imagination. How could it be so miserable despite the difference in location? Even with the Zhou family's future glory and wealth hanging in front of her, she felt like she couldn't survive...
Li Danyang thought of Gu Shichu and couldn't help but wonder, in his previous life, when Gu Shichu married into the Zhou family, was it the same hard work?
"Li Danyang! Where did you die? Did you go away and be lazy? What a bitch, why don't you come back and take care of the child..." Mother Zhou's scolding sounded again, and Li Danyang shivered and went back in a daze. .
She had already married Zhou Weiguo, and it was too late to regret it. She could only hold on and wait until the Zhou family became prosperous, just like Gu Shichu in her previous life...
Li Danyang could only think this way covertly. If she didn't think so, she was afraid that she wouldn't be able to persevere.
Zhou Weiguo went to work in the city just after they got married. He only came back on weekends every week, so it was impossible to help her share much of the work. Li Danyang even had to do more work after he came back because he had to do more cooking and laundry. For his part, he couldn't get a good rest at night.
She complained to Zhou Weiguo, but Zhou Weiguo not only did not comfort her, but also accused her of being spoiled, saying that other people's daughters-in-law came here like this, so why was she the only one who found it hard? Not too squeamish!
Li Danyang was unable to tell her story, and she did not dare to offend her husband and mother-in-law. She did not even dare to offend her stepchildren, so she was even more oppressed. In a short period of time, she became extremely haggard due to hard work, even though she had just been married. , her face should be glowing red, but her face was swollen due to lack of rest, and she also had dark circles under her eyes, making her look several years older.
When Gu Shichu passed by Zhou's house and saw her, he couldn't believe his eyes: "Li Danyang?"
She shouted hesitantly, Li Danyang used to be young, cute and full of vitality, but now she is a heavy woman who seems to be bent over by the weight of life, lifeless.
