"Can't you speak properly?!" Qin Huairu could not stand Jia Zhangshi's slander the most. She supported her waist and walked into the room." I'm a woman with a big belly. Who am I flirting with?!"”

"Who knows who you were flirting with when Dongxu wasn't around?”Jia Zhangshi didn't understand Qin Huiru at all as she spoke in a sarcastic tone.

"You…Don't you dare sully my innocence! I didn't do anything!" Qin Huairu was so angry that her eyes turned red. She really could not stand this wicked mother-in-law's sarcasm.

Jia Zhang-shi snorted and ignored her,""Some people only think about flirting with others all day long, but they don't think about getting some eggs for their children. Sigh, my boy is really unlucky to meet such a mother!”

Qin Huairu almost fainted from anger.

Fortunately, at this moment, the curtain was lifted and her husband, Jia Dongxu, returned.

"Where's the food? Is there still food at home?" As soon as Jia Dongxu entered the house, he couldn't wait to look for food in the pot.

"No." Qin Huairu wiped her tears.”

Jia Dongxu casually glanced at Qin Huiru, but he did not care why she was crying. Instead, he ran into the house to check on the child.

It was unknown what Jia Zhangshi and Jia Dongxu were whispering about, but the licentious man turned around and said to Qin Huairu,"

"The child wants to eat eggs. Why don't you think of a way?”

"What can I do? I'm a pregnant woman. What can I do?”

Jia Dongxu rolled his eyes and whispered,""Go and borrow some eggs from Dongfang Ming. Mother said that he bought eggs and brown sugar.”

Qin Huairu felt bitter. To think that Jia Dongxu could think of asking her to borrow eggs from her previous blind date partner!

"I'm not going. I can't afford to lose face!”

"What's there to be ashamed of? We're neighbors. Who doesn't have a difficult time?”

Seeing that Qin Huairu was unmoved, Jia Dongxu could only say,""Let me tell you, Dongfang Ming is very rich now. He received a salary of more than 80 yuan this month. He was rich and powerful. He did not care about one or two eggs at all.”

"No matter what, you were fated to meet him back then. If you go talk to him, Dongfang Ming will definitely not embarrass you.”

Dongfang Ming and the Jia family had become enemies because of the incident where he had intercepted Qin Huiru. For the past two years, the two families had never interacted with each other. They did not even greet each other when they met.

Hence, after much consideration, Jia Dongxu could only encourage Qin Huairu to step forward.

This vampire family had been eyeing Dongfang Ming for a long time.

Upon hearing Jia Dongxu's words, Qin Huairu's eyes widened.

"What did you say? Dongfang Ming's salary was more than eighty yuan? Why is it so high!"

"He's a level seven fitter now, which is one level lower than First Master. It's normal for him to get more than 80.”Jia Dongxu answered.

Qin Huairu's emotions were extremely complicated. She looked at the indifferent Jia Dongxu, then thought about Dongfang Ming, whom she had missed out on. For a moment, she felt her chest tighten.

If she had followed Dongfang Ming back then, what kind of godly life would she be living now? Would she have to go hungry?

Why was her man so disappointing?

"Other people earn 80 yuan a month, but why are you still 22 yuan a month?”Qin Huairu could not help but grumble.

In the end, one sentence directly angered Jia Dongxu. Although this person looked sickly, his temper was not small.

"If it weren't for you, I'd be able to afford everything for 22.50 yuan. A country bumpkin like you still dares to complain about me?”

As Jia Dongxu spoke, he slapped Qin Huairu.

Back then, Jia Dongxu had thought of ways to steal from Dongfang Ming because Qin Huiru was pretty. However, after two years of living together, he had long worn out his good impression of him.

Qin Huairu had no household registration and no job. She did not contribute much to the family. Jia Dongxu's meager salary was not enough to support a family of four and a child in his stomach.

Therefore, not only Jia Zhangshi, even Jia Dongxu could not stand Qin Huiru.

He even had the thought of driving Qin Huairu back to the countryside, so he would beat and scold Qin Huairu at every turn.

Qin Huairu covered her flushed face, tears welling up in her eyes. However, she did not dare to lose her temper because she did not want Jia Dongxu to find a reason to chase her home.

Although life in the city was hard, it was better than farming in the countryside.

"What the f * ck are you waiting for? Go borrow food from Dongfang Ming! No matter what, the two of you have some old feelings. You're pregnant now. What's wrong with borrowing a few eggs from him?”As Jia Dongxu spoke, he pushed Qin Huairu hard.

Qin Huairu wiped the tears from her face and left the room with her head lowered.

When they arrived at the backyard, Qin Huairu stole a glance at First Uncle's room door. She was hesitating whether she should borrow a few eggs from First Uncle.

First Uncle was a Level 8 fitter and had no children. His usual salary could not be spent. He was very rich.

However, Qin Huiru had just borrowed food from the First Uncle a few days ago, and now she was asking for eggs. Qin Huiru really could not make it.

Biting her lips, Qin Huairu finally arrived at Dongfang Ming's house and knocked on his door anxiously.

This was the first time she came to Dongfang Ming in two years.

In the room, Dongfang Ming did not even raise his head when he heard the knocking.""Come in, the door isn't locked."

He was peeling eggs seriously with his head lowered. In the porcelain jar beside him, ginger floated in the warm brown sugar water.

Dongfang Ming had been catching a cold for the past two days, so he was thinking of using this method to treat his illness.

He wanted to buy white sugar, but it was a pity that white sugar was made with advanced technology and was produced in small quantities. Therefore, even if he had money, he did not have a white sugar ticket.

The production of brown sugar was relatively simple and the yield was large. Most people would choose to eat brown sugar during festivals.

It was already considered a luxury to visit relatives during the New Year and buy two bags of brown sugar and white steamed buns.

"Fang Ming, you're busy."

After entering Dongfang Ming's room, Qin Huairu clasped her hands together and placed them on her stomach. She braced herself and greeted him.

Dongfang Ming replied indifferently,""Yes, what's the matter?"

The red-skinned egg was lightly cracked open. After skillfully rubbing it with his hands, he pulled the thin film and easily came down.

A white and bouncy egg landed on the plate beside him.

Qin Huairu felt even hungrier. The child seemed to be making a ruckus.

Gritting her teeth, Qin Huairu could only thicken her skin and say,""Fang Ming, do you have eggs at home? Can you lend me a few…The boy has been clamoring for eggs, and when the child is growing…I'll return them to you next month!”

However, Dongfang Ming answered without blinking,""Unfortunately, I don't have eggs at home."

"I really didn't!" Dongfang Ming spread his hands and stuffed a peeled egg into his mouth.

Qin Huairu's eyes widened in disbelief.

What else is in your mouth if not an egg?

What else is on your plate if not eggs?

Is the egg skin under your feet fake?

Was there such a bully?
