    Yang Yi took her mother-in-law Xu Jinhua's contempt for her completely in her eyes, because up to now she has not been able to give Li Changqing a son, and the birth of the third child has further reduced her status in this family.  The mother-in-law targeted her everywhere, gave her bad looks every day, and talked about her everywhere, even though she had tried her best to be a good daughter-in-law.  In the first few years of marriage, all the money Li Changqing earned was handed over to Xu Jinhua to supplement the family.  Xu Jinhua used the money to help the other three sons buy a new house and marry their daughter-in-law, but never said a word about how good Li Changqing and his wife are.  Even so, fortunately, Li Changqing didn't mind that she didn't give birth to a son, and took care of her and the children consistently.  Therefore, for the sake of family harmony, Yang Yi still endured everything as much as possible.

    "Happy New Year to Grandma, Happy New Year to Second Uncle, and Happy New Year to Second Concubine."

    Although it is said that the second day of junior high school is the day to go back to her natal family, Li Changshu, Li Changqing's eldest sister, always delays seeing Xu Jinhua until after the sixth day of junior high school, citing her husband Feng Yuzhong's busy schedule.  This Xu Jinhua was also surprised that such a patriarchal person tortured his daughter-in-law in every possible way, hated the children of Li Changqing's family, but loved his daughter and niece very much.  If there is any good thing, I will keep it for my daughter, and in terms of money, as long as my daughter opens her mouth, no matter how hard I live, I always save it from the gap between my teeth.  My own treasures, those big foreign money from the Republic of China period, would always give two to my daughter from time to time.  People in the village said that this thing will become more and more valuable in the future, and she always takes it out for her daughter to save, and when she gets old in the future, she will sell it for money when she is nervous.  Of course, what Yang Yi heard was from her sister-in-law, but she also believed in this fact. After all, she was kind to her daughter, and even a fool could see it.

    "Okay, okay, Chinese New Year is going well, big sister, come in quickly." This year it's Xu Jinhua's turn to live in Li Changqing's house for Chinese New Year. Yang Yi cheerfully welcomes this elder sister-in-law who is regarded as a treasure by her mother-in-law, hoping that she can "behave" in front of this elder sister-in-law.  "Good point, to win a little mother-in-law's favor.  Since her sister-in-law and niece came here, Yang Yi decided to let them spend today "without touching the spring water".  Although other people's homes are aunts who have come to their natal homes to serve brothers and daughters-in-law in various ways.  However, she is different, she has no son.  All the meals were prepared by Yang Yi alone, and when it was time to eat, the whole family went up to eat, and she was still busy.  Although she was tired and her back hurt, she couldn't complain.

    "Don't do it, go up and eat first, the sauerkraut is in the pot, it's okay." Li Changqing felt sorry for Yang Yi, but he didn't dare to speak in front of his mother Xu Jinhua.

    "No, you can eat first." Yang Yi cooked for most of the day, and finally could only eat a few mouthfuls of leftover cold rice and cold dishes.

    Seeing that Li Changshu was about to leave, Yang Yi, who was washing the dishes, quickly wiped her hands with a rag, and went into the house to start looking for lucky money. This has been a custom for many years.  If the life is well-off or not, the adults on both sides will pay for the children's New Year's money during the New Year, so that the children will have a happy New Year.  When she came out of the house holding two flattened five yuan bills and greeted her with a smile, her mother-in-law Xu Jinhua's face was suddenly covered with dark clouds from the clear sky, and the three words unwilling were written all over her face with great fanfare.  .

    "There is no need to give lucky money this year." The head of the family spoke, and Yang Yi thought she was telling her that she had no money, and her mother-in-law felt sorry for her.  She didn't know what to say next, so she didn't know how to answer it.

    "Your family has three children this year, and your elder sister's family has two children. There will be no new year's money." Xu Jinhua didn't raise her head, still teasing her precious niece, and put her five yuan into the child's bag.  pocket.

    It turned out that this is what it means, the New Year's money has always been given according to the size of the child.  In the past, my aunt's family had two children, and Yang Yi always gave two shares of money. At that time, my family had only one child, so I just "lost" the money of one person.  In the past two years, there were two children in my family, and they had nothing to say, and they were even with each other. Now, the mother-in-law is afraid that the eldest sister-in-law will "lose money" with her.

    "How can Mom do this? She's so smart. I'm not greedy for her lucky money. If you don't want to give it to me, tell me earlier. Let me lose this person, as if I deliberately want to earn their child's money."  It's like New Year's money. Besides, she gives New Year's money to the eldest sister's children every year. I didn't say anything about not giving money to our children. Yes, she hates that I can't have a son. Isn't that niece also a girl?  "Yang Yi was so angry by her mother-in-law's behavior that she had nowhere to go, so she could only complain to Li Changqing at night.  Li Changqing was caught in the middle, even though he knew that Yang Yi had been wronged, he couldn't do anything about it, so he could only listen quietly and let her vent.

    Yang Yi is wronged, but she won't cry.  She knew that everyone looked down on her for having a daughter, and she had to work hard to show them a son.

    "Are you asleep?" Yang YiIt is rare for them to talk to themselves in such a soft voice. They have been tortured by life and have long lost their passion for life.  This sound aroused Li Changqing's boundless passion, and he used his tenderness to comfort her who was hurt today.  (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
