Chapter 418: Leave Enough Living Space for Your Edges
Zhenzhu nodded repeatedly. Indeed, she was often hungry at night recently. Although there was food stewing in the kitchen, this sesame and walnut powder looked delicious. It would be nice to change the taste.
After sitting for a while, Hualei took Zhenzhu's hand and continued to walk slowly. Zhenzhu's exercise in the morning was not enough. The two of them walked and talked softly.
Pearl's hands were still a little thin. Stroking Pearl's hands, Hualei said, "Pearl, you need to eat more so that the baby in your belly will have nutrition. You are still too thin."
Pearl nodded and said, "Sister Hua, I understand. I was really unhappy in the past few months. There was no one to talk to me, and I was weighed down by many things, so my appetite was not good.
But I listened to your advice the last time we met, and I did what you said. Since I came back and talked to my husband, he has indeed been changing slowly. I think I will get better and better, don't worry."
Hualei nodded and said, "Yes, as long as you work hard, your life will definitely get better and better. Remember, even if there are thorns in front of you, you must have stars and seas in your eyes, slowly understand each other, slowly change yourself, look forward to it, and love it.
In this way, ordinary days will also hide the fireworks and endless joy, so no matter what, you must remember to be happy. And, you must remember that happiness is given by yourself, not begged for.
If your husband listens to you and changes, that's a good thing. If he cares for you, you should learn to cherish and give. If he cares for you, you should learn to accept and respond. The two of you will slowly get along and respect each other. You will get better and better. "
"Well, I will, Sister Hua, thank you." Looking around, Zhenzhu lowered her voice slightly and asked, "Sister Hua, after I talked to my husband earlier, he seems to be getting better.
However, my mother-in-law seemed a little unhappy. Although she didn't say anything in front of me, you know, today, she and my grandmother went to the temple to burn incense, and brought You and Yu with them.
Normally, as concubines, how could they follow my mother-in-law out when the mistress didn't go, and they didn't even say hello to me. I guess it was my mother-in-law who asked them to go. They used to serve in my mother-in-law's room and were very popular with her. "
Hua Lei was stunned. Youshi, Yushi? Oh, it should be Jiang Yunqi's new concubine. She couldn't help but feel a little angry. Is this because Madam Jiang saw that her son didn't go to the concubine's room recently? Is she trying to deceive Zhenzhu?
As expected, the creature that can most disrupt and destroy the relationship between husband and wife is the mother-in-law. Her face turned cold and she asked Zhenzhu, "How does your mother-in-law treat you?"
Pearl thought for a moment and said, "She is very well behaved and polite. Except for when we first got married, when she made me set up some rules for a few months, she hasn't deliberately made things difficult for me in other aspects.
However, she was never very close to me, nor did she like me very much. She was sometimes picky about my workmanship and would ask me to make her a pair of shoes or socks from time to time.
I guess she still has some dissatisfaction with me because she heard what my aunt-in-law said before, saying that I was a bad worker and often sneaked out to play.
So, taking advantage of my pregnancy, she immediately gave my husband two concubines. In her daily conversations, she would occasionally protect the concubines, praising Youshi’s good maids and Yushi’s caring attitude. ”
Hua Lei originally felt that it was a very disgusting thing for a mother-in-law to take a concubine for her son when her daughter-in-law was pregnant. Such a mother-in-law was not likable. Now she was deliberately using the concubine to pressure her daughter-in-law, which made her even less likable.
So, after hearing what Zhenzhu said, Hualei's face looked a little unhappy. She looked around and spoke to Zhenzhu in a low voice.
"Pearl, you can change yourself. Changing yourself is to make yourself live a better life. But don't lose yourself in the process of changing yourself. You need to be gentle, but also sharp.
Especially the concubine. She already exists, and you can't kill her for no reason. But you must never let her be above you, even if she was given to your husband by your mother-in-law, that's not allowed, do you understand?
The world of you and Jiang Yunqi is already crowded enough. You have already made concessions and let your mother-in-law give your husband a concubine. If your mother-in-law still wants to borrow a concubine to give you a hard time, then it will definitely not work.
You are now pregnant with such great difficulty, and as a mother-in-law, she not only does not sympathize with you and does not take care of you, but also deliberately makes things difficult for you and makes you angry. She is unkind.
You can't let her take advantage of your pregnancy to smooth you over and flatten you into whatever she wants."
Hualei looked unhappy. After a pause, she continued, "Don't be weak, and don't be afraid. You must make yourself strong all the time, even if you are just pretending to be strong.
You are now at your weakest physically, but mentally, you should be at your strongest because you have to take on the responsibility of being a mother. You need to leave enough room for your edges and corners to protect your child in the future.
As a concubine, it is against the family rules to follow your mother-in-law out without your consent. Your mother-in-law deliberately took them out without saying hello to you, which is deliberately not giving you face.
When they come back, don't lose your temper yet. Wait for the next few days, find a fault and give the two concubines a good scolding. Remember, when scolding them, don't mention their visit to the temple.
If your mother-in-law dares to use the concubine as a bargaining chip to scare you, you can use the concubine to shock the tiger and kill the chicken to scare the monkey. Even if you can't shock your mother-in-law for the time being, you must make sure that the two concubines don't become more and more rampant and bold, so that you can't feel at ease.
If your mother-in-law comes out to defend the concubine, don't argue with her, just start crying. While crying, pretend to faint from anger, and send Qinghe back to the Marquis' Mansion to find Grandmother Pei.
But don't faint from the real anger. Also, be careful when you pretend to faint so that the girl can catch you in time.
Don't be stupid and fall directly to the ground. If you hurt yourself, you will lose more than you gain." Hualei gave Zhenzhu some advice.
"Is this okay? What if it scares my grandmother? She's old and can't stand being scared." Pearl hesitated.
Hualei paused for a moment and asked, "How about this? When I go back today, I'll ask Qingying to go over and give Grandmother Pei some peace of mind. So that Grandmother Pei can have some idea of what's going on?"
Pearl thought about it, nodded, and said, "Okay, that's settled. Please tell my grandmother first so that she won't worry.
When I heard about this this morning, I was already very angry, but I couldn't say it directly in front of my husband. Sister Hua, your idea is good. I will try it in a few days. "
"Well, remember, don't really faint from anger, and don't hurt yourself. Just treat this as a play. They are performing today, and it will be your turn in a few days. Remember that."
