Chapter 556 The Bloodshed Caused by Poisoned Milk Powder (3)
A grown man like that, even after getting married, would he still split living expenses with his wife?
Li Fangfang bit her lip in anger. Her previous job paid more than four thousand yuan a month, and she only changed to an easier job because she was pregnant.
Before she had children, Zhao Haidong was very considerate to her. He would even wash her feet and hair, cook for her, do her laundry, and show her concern for her well-being.
But everything changed after the child was born.
As for saying he disliked having a daughter, he knew before the birth that he was carrying a girl, but he still treated her very well.
Now he doesn't do any housework and we're always arguing.
Is it because his mother came, and now he has someone to back him up?
Li Fangfang was completely baffled.
How could a man who clearly loved her change so suddenly, starting from the day their child was born?
"Stop arguing!"
Zhao Haidong's mother suddenly pushed open the door and walked in, crying.
Qi Shumei, an elderly woman in her sixties, never went to school and rarely left the village.
I came to the city this time to take care of my daughter-in-law during her postpartum period, and there were so many things I couldn't stand.
She had hardly ever bought any new clothes in her entire life. When Li Fangfang saw that she was dressed in shabby clothes, she bought her two new outfits. After complaining, she put them away and refused to wear them.
Even after Li Fangfang had finished eating the apple core and thrown it into the trash can, she would secretly pick it out and take a few more bites, saying that she hadn't eaten it cleanly.
This made Li Fangfang very embarrassed, but what was even more embarrassing was that Qi Shumei never flushed the toilet after using it, saying it was too wasteful and that she would save up several flushes before flushing.
She doesn't use a washing machine for laundry, and when she washes clothes by hand, she's reluctant to use laundry detergent, so they're basically never clean. She also doesn't use dish soap when washing dishes, and they're always covered in grease.
Not only was she reluctant to use oil when cooking, but she would also use a basin of water to wash all the vegetables. She would pour the water from washing vegetables and rinsing rice into a bucket and then use it to flush the toilet, leaving the floor from the kitchen to the bathroom always wet. Li Fangfang almost slipped and fell several times.
She also frequently shared her experience in saving money with Li Fangfang, saying that money is earned through saving.
Li Fangfang respected her, rarely arguing back, but she also didn't do as she was told.
This milk powder incident was unpleasant in my past life, and it will be the same in this one.
As soon as Qi Shumei entered the house, she wiped away her tears and said, "Fangfang despises this old woman like me. I'm going back to the countryside tomorrow. I'm not used to living in this apartment building. They say that once a son marries, he forgets his mother. From now on, you just live your own lives. I don't care anymore!"
"Mom, don't be angry. Fangfang is being unreasonable. I'll have her apologize to you!" Zhao Haidong winked at Li Fangfang.
Li Fangfang looked grim. She could compromise on other things, but when it came to matters concerning her child, she had to stand firm.
"Mom, the milk powder you bought is very good, but it says on the label that it's a low-fat, high-calcium milk powder for middle-aged and elderly people, and it's not suitable for newborns. It's more suitable for you."
Li Fangfang suppressed her anger and tried to speak in a gentle tone.
Qi Shumei cried even harder now, "So you mean I bought this formula for myself? Honestly, let alone formula that costs over thirty yuan a can, I can't even afford a one-yuan box of soy milk! Son, I came all this way to help you take care of your child, and I…"
Seeing his mother crying so hard she was about to collapse, Zhao Haidong quickly went over to support her, glaring at Li Fangfang with a hint of annoyance.
"Li Fangfang, all my mother's kindness has been wasted. Can you live like this? If not, let's get a divorce. But the child will stay with me. Get out of here!" Zhao Haidong's eyes were devoid of any emotion.
"Zhao Haidong, are you even speaking human language?" Li Fangfang almost ground her teeth to powder. She had seen through it all; this mother and son were deliberately making things difficult for her because they knew she had no family.
No wonder they treated her so well before she gave birth, but changed their attitude afterward.
They knew she couldn't bear to part with her child and wouldn't dare to get a divorce!
"Apologize to my mom, and the baby will drink this formula from now on. If you behave, we can still be a family. Otherwise, hmph!"
Su Dingding's face turned bright red. This bastard dad of his is asking for it!
Are you bullying her because she's small and incapable of dealing with him?
That would be wrong. If you can't do it openly, can't you do it covertly?
He'll be kneeling down, crying and kowtowing, calling her "Dad" in no time!
Before Su Dingding could make a move, Li Fangfang jumped up.
"I did nothing wrong, why should I apologize? If you're really not satisfied, then call the police and let them settle this!" Li Fangfang said defiantly. "Besides, the Marriage Law stipulates that I'm still in my postpartum period, and I can't get a divorce right now!"
"Hey!" Zhao Haidong clenched his fist.
Li Fangfang stretched her head forward, "Come on, hit me on the head, or I'll make sure you leave with nothing!"
"Li Fangfang..." Qi Shumei was so angry she almost had a heart attack. "What kind of karma did she have to commit to marry such a spendthrift shrew..."
"Maybe your ancestors didn't accumulate any good karma." Li Fangfang stopped pretending to be virtuous and gentle; that kind of thing was useless.
Since they don't treat her like family, she'll just pretend she was blind. No one can't live without someone else!
"Listen to what she's saying!" Qi Shumei clutched her chest in anger and leaned against Zhao Haidong.
Li Fangfang lowered her head to play with the baby, pretending not to hear or see anything.
Zhao Haidong helped his elderly mother out, while glaring fiercely at Li Fangfang, "You just wait!"
We'll just wait.
Seeing the door close, Li Fangfang immediately panicked, "Wouldn't they have poisoned my food?"
Su Dingding looked at the flustered new mother and found her quite amusing.
Unfortunately, such an interesting person later died of depression after blaming himself for poisoning his daughter.
Li Fangfang became increasingly frightened, so she called her mother, crying and saying she wanted to eat her mother's cooking.
Li Fangfang's mother sensed that something was wrong with her daughter. She had only been back from her daughter's place for a few days, and while she was there, she felt that her daughter was not happy, but when she asked her, her daughter would not say anything.
Although she didn't say anything this time, the mother felt uneasy.
My daughter married far away and is currently in postpartum confinement. If she becomes depressed and develops health problems, it could be a lifelong issue.
Anyway, she's retired now, and she's just killing time anyway, so she might as well sneak over and take a look.
So, that very evening, the Li family held a family meeting.
The father, who had also retired and was driving a taxi to earn some extra money, heard that his daughter might have been wronged and had stopped driving her taxi, so he decided to go and see what was going on.
He was worried that if anything happened, his wife wouldn't be able to handle it alone.
Li Fangfang never expected that one phone call would bring her father, a taxi driver, along with her mother, maternal grandmother, and her uncle's younger brother, who was on summer vacation after graduating from junior high school.
I embarked on the journey after traveling more than two thousand kilometers without any hesitation.
When Su Dingding received the news, he was quite surprised; their efficiency was truly impressive.
In her past life, if Li Fangfang had relied on her family even a little, she wouldn't have died of depression!
"Host, it seems like the reporter you contacted has run into trouble!" Gangzi suddenly reported.
"Let's go take a look!" Su Dingding had thought she might face retaliation, but she didn't expect it to happen so soon.
Oh dear, it seems we're too late!
