Chunhua finished hanging the laundry and came up with a face full of smiles. Hualing came out of the bathroom and upon seeing her, asked, "What, did you find a gold nugget or something? You’re smiling so happily?"
Chunhua pursed her lips and smiled. Upon hearing this, she took Hualing’s hand and led her back to the kitchen window, pouting in the direction of the floor below, "Look."
It was pitch black; what was there to look at?
Hualing squinted and looked down. Eh, that person hanging laundry downstairs, was it Qi Taiguo?
"See for yourself," Chunhua said with a smile. "That’s Commander Qi. He said Cheng Su wasn’t feeling well, so he’s helping with the laundry."
"So what?" Hualing pouted, feeling rather unpleasant inside.
Chunhua glanced at her and said, "Nothing much, just that Cheng Su really has good fortune!"
Hualing didn’t speak.
"She can do business and make money on her own, and her husband dotes on her. Look at us now, whose husband helps with this sort of thing? Her husband is even a commander. If this isn’t good fortune, what is?" Chunhua’s words dripped with unspoken envy and jealousy.
Hualing looked at Chunhua’s protruding belly and said, "Is your husband not good to you? You’re about to bear him a big, healthy son; he should be treating you like a queen!"
Chunhua huffed and said, "Who can’t have kids? Don’t even think about getting Old Liang to do any work. He never lifts a finger; by the time he finally does, the work is already done. Cheng Su really has a good life—her husband is competitive and caring, and she can earn her own money. I think, nobody’s days are as comfortable as hers!"
Upon hearing this, Hualing felt so sour inside she was almost bubbling with it, and said with a sour tone, "Old Chen is also very good to me. If he hadn’t been feeling a bit under the weather these past few days, he’d even wash my underwear for me!"
After she finished speaking, she stopped looking and walked back to her bedroom.
