Chapter 19 The terminally ill mother-in-law who killed her daughter-in-law 3

Xie Yuan had never seen such a delicate pregnant woman. In his impression, giving birth was a natural thing for women. Women in his hometown still worked even when they were seven or eight months pregnant. Even though Ye Zhiqiu's belly was still flat, she started to complain about being tired.

He wanted to ignore Ye Zhiqiu, but he was afraid that something might happen to the baby in her belly, so he could only hold his anger and work. This was the first time in his life that he felt so frustrated.

"I have to work overtime recently and don't have time to cook. Why don't you let my mother take care of you?"

Ye Zhiqiu was disgusted with Xie Yuan for shifting the blame to others, but she was just thinking of meeting this evil mother-in-law who dared to kill people, so she nodded in agreement.

When Xie's mother heard that her daughter-in-law was pregnant, Xie Yuan offered to take care of her without her asking. She was worried about the young people and worried that her eldest grandson would be wronged.

Xie Yuan hoped that his mother would arrive sooner, and he even tried to resign: "Mom, you are old and in poor health, you should enjoy your life, how can I let you take care of me? Ye Zhiqiu is not a child, what is there for him to take care of?"

"I'm not taking care of her, I'm taking care of my eldest grandson." Xie's mother didn't have Ye Zhiqiu in her eyes. If her son hadn't insisted on getting married, she wouldn't want to find a useless daughter-in-law.

Her son Xie Yuan is so outstanding, and there are so many leaders in the school. It would be great to find a leader's daughter as a daughter-in-law. With the promotion of her father-in-law, she will not have to worry about anything in her life.

Xie Yuan had thought about his leader's daughter before, but unfortunately the leader's children had high standards and looked down on him, a poor boy from a small county town.

He could only settle for the second best and marry Ye Zhiqiu. The Ye family had only one daughter, and both the Ye family and his wife had retirement wages and a house in the provincial capital. If he married Ye Zhiqiu, all these things would be his.

Xie Yuan treated the Ye family's things as his own, and Xie's mother thought the same. She brought a lot of local specialties to the provincial capital, but only her son went to the train station to pick her up, and Ye Zhiqiu was nowhere to be seen.

Who is she doing this for? It's a pity that she can't enjoy her retirement life at her age.

Ye Zhiqiu doesn't indulge Xie's mother: "I want to hire an aunt to do the housework, but Xie Yuan is reluctant to spend money and wants you to do it. If you want to blame someone, blame your good son. He earns too little and has no ability."

Although Xie's mother had more than one son, Xie Yuan had always been her pride because he had been an excellent student since childhood. She was very angry when she was despised.

When she was young, she had won countless arguments at work, so she naturally said to Ye Zhiqiu: "If you have the ability, no matter how much money you make, you can still marry my son. If you have the ability, don't marry me."

It’s no surprise that Ye Zhiqiu was criticized. How can a mother-in-law who can kill people be a weak person?

She calmly counterattacked: "I don't want to get married either. It's your son who has been pestering me for years, forcing me to have no male mosquitoes around me. If I don't marry him, who else should I marry? If you are not satisfied, you can divorce me now."

Xie's mother was speechless all of a sudden. She didn't dare to make the decision on behalf of her son to divorce. The key point was that her eldest grandson was still in her daughter-in-law's belly. If they really wanted to divorce, would her eldest grandson also be gone?

This is not feasible. I can do without my daughter-in-law, but I cannot abandon my eldest grandson.

Xie Yuan stepped out to smooth things over: "Mom is not good at talking, you know that, why do you bother with her?"

"Zhi Qiu's temper has become bad because of her pregnancy. You should be more understanding." This was said to Xie's mother.

Xie's mother took the opportunity to complain, "He forgot his mother after he got married."

Ye Zhiqiu pretended not to hear it. What did Xie Yuan's lack of conscience have to do with her? She wanted to mess with Xie Yuan, and she ordered Xie Yuan to do everything at home.

Xie's mother was reluctant to let her eldest son work, so she was willing to jump out to help, but she also gave her a cold look. She really didn't know the name of the house she was standing in.

In order to let Xie's mother know that Xie Yuan was a gigolo, Ye Zhiqiu took her to various real estate sales centers for a day to let her see how much the house prices were in the city, and how long it would take Xie Yuan to buy a house without eating or drinking on his salary.

After Xie's mother settled the accounts, she was not embarrassed at all. Instead, she was proud of Xie Yuan's excellence. Otherwise, why would Ye Zhiqiu want to marry him even if she had to pay for him?

She continued to act like a powerful mother-in-law, saying that she was taking care of a pregnant woman, but in the end she couldn't even prepare three meals a day, let alone other housework.

Ye Zhiqiu wanted to eat light meals, but Xie's mother only considered her own taste, and every dish was spicy and salty. She and Xie Yuan ate happily, but Ye Zhiqiu didn't pick up his chopsticks after taking a bite.

"Eat more spicy food so that your child has good skin. I ate a lot of spicy food, which is why Xie Yuan was born smart and good-looking." Xie's mother recalled that when she was young, after she became pregnant, she not only had to go to work, but also did housework as usual.

Unlike today's young wives, who don't even sweep the floor just because they are pregnant. Who can't bear the slightest hardship if they haven't given birth to a child?

Ye Zhiqiu kindly reminded the mother and son who were enjoying their meal across from him: "As the old saying goes, sour food makes a boy, spicy food makes a girl. If you let me eat spicy food, don't blame me if you give birth to a girl."

The mother and son froze for a moment, but Xie's mother was the quickest to react. She immediately got up and went into the kitchen, deciding to make another sour dish.

Xie Yuan was a person who had received higher education, so he naturally didn't believe the saying of sour sons and spicy daughters. Unfortunately, he couldn't stop Xie's mother. He wanted to start with Ye Zhiqiu, but ended up with another round of sarcasm.

"Xie Yuan, you are smart and know everything, why don't you persuade your mother not to favor boys over girls. Oh, no, I was wrong. It's not your mother who favors boys over girls, it's you who favors boys over girls." Ye Zhiqiu decided to go to the school to talk to Xie Yuan's leader when he had time.

She remembered that the leader's family had only one daughter, and his spouse was also a strong woman with a good career development.

She believed that they would not like such subordinates. Of course, she did not ask them to do anything. She just wanted this slight displeasure to make Xie Yuan fall behind when it came to promotion and salary increase.

Xie Yuan naturally did not admit that he favored boys over girls: "You are talking nonsense. It doesn't matter whether it's a boy or a girl. As long as it's my child, I like it."

Ye Zhiqiu sneered. It would be strange if they really wanted to be the same. Xie Yuan's hometown was famous for favoring boys over girls. It was an era when women were not allowed to sit at the table for meals and were not allowed to visit graves. How dare you say they were the same?

That is to say, she was different from her original self. Every time she went back to Xie's house, she could sit at the table with the men to eat. However, she herself did not like to eat with men, because she disliked the smell of their smoking and drinking.

If she were to go, she wouldn't avoid him just because he smokes and drinks. If someone makes her uncomfortable, she should just say it. If she doesn't listen after one time, she should say it again. If she still doesn't change after the third time, don't blame her for being rude.

As for how rude he was, Xie Yuan would know if he dared to bring her back to Old Xie's house again.

Xie Yuan was so angry that he didn't want to talk. It was only when his mother came out to persuade him that his face turned from gloomy to bright. It wasn't that his mother didn't care about her son. She was afraid that Ye Zhiqiu's temper would cause miscarriage, which would affect the child.

She could see that her daughter-in-law was not a good person and her son had been wronged. She would just endure it for a few months at most and settle the score after the child was born.
