"Okay, okay, that's it. Let's buy some more radishes. When we were children, the adults said that radishes are from native ginseng. When radishes are on the market, those doctors don't have to open their doors anymore." Yu Jie said as she walked.
Xu Zhishuang looked at her, "Why, grandma?"
"It just means that radish is really a good thing. Haha..." Yu Jie walked to a vegetable shop and asked, "Boss, how do you sell this radish?"
"Two yuan a pound!"
"Two yuan, so expensive?" Xu Zhishuang felt that radish didn't usually cost a few cents per catty. Why did it suddenly cost two yuan? It was indeed a bit too expensive.
The hawker didn't seem very happy, "Little girl, the radishes are not on the market yet. Of course, these radishes are expensive. If you want to buy them, there are other cheap vegetables."
Xu Zhishuang couldn't make up his mind and asked Yu Jie, "Grandma, is this the price?"
Yu Jie smiled. She was indeed a good boy who was diligent and thrifty. "Yes, radishes will not be fully available until winter, so the radishes now are a bit expensive. Boss, please weigh this for me." He picked it up.
A big, white carrot for the boss.
"If you wait another month, the radishes will be cheaper. Don't worry, little girl. I have been doing business here for decades and I won't sell them at a high price." The vendor weighed and said something back.
Xu Zhishuang thought it might be that he hadn't been to the vegetable market for too long, and now he didn't know what the market was like, so he was just talking nonsense.
I felt a little embarrassed, and rarely spoke after that, and worked as a laborer behind Yu Jie.
The two of them bought groceries and went home. As soon as they walked to the door, they heard a burst of laughter coming from inside. It felt like it was very lively.
"We have guests at home, it's so lively." Yu Jie said as she opened the door and went in.
"Maybe." Xu Zhishuang thought that maybe a relative from the Shen family was here. It was normal for relatives to move around on weekends.
After pushing open the glass door of the living room, I saw that the guests sitting on the sofa were none other than Ye Zilan and Ye Zilan's parents.
"Miss Xu is back and she even went shopping." Ye Zilan smiled slightly at Xu Zhishuang, so elegant and generous, but her eyes were full of expectation, and her natural sense of superiority was vividly displayed.
"Well, Minister Ye, Mrs. Ye, Miss Ye, come if you have time." Xu Zhishuang also greeted politely.
"Isn't Ye Zilan a big star? Big stars are always very busy, how can they have time to come to our house?" Yu Jie handed the dishes in her hand to her aunt, and sat down and looked at Ye Zilan, her eyes were not that
This kind of liking is just a very plain direct look.
Of course Ye Zilan knew that no one in the Shen family liked her. She didn't know why, no matter how much she tried to please her, it seemed like there was always a wall between them.
Xu Zhishuang took a look, and it seemed that only Li Yuzhen was at home, and no one else was there.
"Where are grandpa and dad, have they gone out?"
Li Yuzhen looked at her with some worry, "Well, I went out. As soon as I went out, the guests came. Fortunately, my house is here."
Xu Zhishuang nodded, without thinking much, and just sat there quietly, ignoring the worry in Li Yuzhen's eyes.
But she wanted to be quiet, how could someone let her go so easily.
"Miss Xu, you and Jun Hao have been married for more than half a year. Why is there no news about your belly yet?" Ye Zilan said and glanced at Xu Zhishuang's belly intentionally. The meaning couldn't be more obvious.
Xu Zhishuang did not expect that she would come specifically to make trouble for him. Everyone in the Shen family hoped that there would be news about her pregnancy. However, after such a long time, her and Shen Junhao's married life was normal, but they were not pregnant. What could she do.
However, she has been taking Chinese medicine to regulate her body, and she feels that her health has improved a lot recently, and her period has become normal, and she no longer has the excruciating pain every time she comes.
"We...we let nature take its course." Xu Zhishuang said shyly as everyone seemed to be looking at her.
"Let nature take its course? That means you are not using contraception, so why is there no news about your belly yet? You are almost thirty and not young anymore. You should have a child as soon as possible." Ye Zilan said without any scruples.
Xu Zhishuang looked at her, and then at everyone else, and seemed a little strange. It should be inappropriate for an unmarried woman like Ye Zilan to say such words.
But except for Yu Jie's frown, Li Yuzhen seemed to feel completely normal, and Mrs. Ye looked at Ye Zilan with relief, wondering what was going on.
"Of course!" I could only say with gritted hair, "Why did Miss Ye ask me about my child? I remember you are single, why do you want to get married?"
Ye Zilan smiled mysteriously, "No, no, I'm not getting married, but as a mother, it's a very happy thing for me to look at my own children, so I hope Miss Xu can have children."
"Mother? Are you a mother?" Xu Zhishuang couldn't believe it. Wasn't Ye Zilan always unmarried? Why did she suddenly say that she was a mother?
Looking at Mrs. Ye, Mrs. Ye had a very uncomfortable smile on her face. Then she looked at Shen Junhao's mother, whose expression seemed even more strange, and she looked at her with some worry.
Why is this? Why does my mother have that look in her eyes? Suddenly, the bad feeling in my heart became even stronger.
"Well, I've been a mother for a long time, but because of work, I can't be exposed, so I haven't said anything yet. My son is ten years old. He was playing here just now. Where is he now?" Ye Zilan said.
He looked around as if he was looking for his son.
Mrs. Ye stood up immediately, "I'll go check on Mingming, the kid, I don't know where he went."
Li Yuzhen wanted to stop her, but Mrs. Ye just walked away.
Wherever Yu Jie had been sitting, she felt that today's events were particularly strange, and that her daughter-in-law seemed to be afraid of something.
Looking at Ye Zilan talking to Xu Zhishuang, she had never liked this girl, and now that she was pregnant before marriage, she disliked her even more.
But she is someone who has experienced ups and downs, and there is no trace of dissatisfaction on her wrinkled face.
"Your son is already ten years old. You are still so young. I remember you are unmarried. Where is the child's father?" Xu Zhishuang asked as usual. After asking, the whole place became quiet.
Ye Zilan's face seemed to have a touch of sadness, and her eyes were full of sadness. She smiled bitterly and said, "We won't talk about the child's father anymore. The child is mine, and he is my son."
Seeing her like this, Xu Zhishuang thought she had something to hide, so she stopped asking about the child's father.
