Volume 1 Chapter 252 Mother Sheng's Heartache

Sheng Wanze and Gu Tingxiao sent Sheng's father and mother to the city to take a bus. Grandpa Sheng and grandma Sheng looked at the direction the car left reluctantly.

"Grandma, let's go back."

Pan Yue saw that the two old people were in a bad mood, but the weather was cold, and if they stood any longer they would catch a cold.

"Let's go."

Grandpa Sheng shook his head and walked into the yard.

Grandma Sheng followed them in, and the atmosphere at home became noticeably depressed after Mr. and Mrs. Sheng left.

Hu Zi was a little kid, and he clearly felt the low pressure at home, so he immediately burst into tears.

Pan Yue hurried to coax the child, but Hu Zi cried for a long time and still refused to stop.

Normally, when Hu Zi cried, Sheng's mother would hold him and rock him gently to comfort him. But now without Sheng's mother's hug, Hu Zi instantly felt that something was wrong.

Pan Yue’s coaxing was useless, Grandma Sheng’s coming in to coax him was useless, even Grandpa Sheng came in to keep him company for a while, but Hu Zi was still crying.

No matter how much Hu Zi cried, his grandmother couldn't comfort him. He finally fell asleep after crying himself tired.

"This child recognizes people at such a young age."

Grandma Sheng sighed and said that the baby was only two months old and yet he was so smart.

"Huzi must be unaccustomed to his parents loving him."

The ones who love Hu Zi the most are not his parents Sheng Wanze and Pan Yue, but his grandparents, Sheng's father and mother.

They say that grandparents are close to each other, and this is no joke.

Even Grandpa Sheng and Grandma Sheng don’t love him as much as Father Sheng and Mother Sheng dote on him.

———

Gu Tingxiao and Sheng Wanze sent Sheng's father and mother to the station. Mother Sheng gave a lot of instructions before getting on the bus.

Father Sheng patted his son and son-in-law on the shoulders. There was no need to say much between men.

"Mom and Dad, don't worry, I will take good care of Yan'er."

Gu Tingxiao knew the concerns of his father-in-law and mother-in-law, and as a son-in-law, he must correct his attitude.

After all, you stole someone else's treasure, so you must take good care of it.

"Okay, I'm relieved to leave Yan'er to you."

As a parent, he saw clearly how much Gu Tingxiao doted on Sheng Wanyan.

It's impossible for a person to pretend all his life, and Sheng's father and mother have been watching Gu Tingxiao's actions over the past few months.

He really loves his daughter, even more than his own parents do.

With such a good son-in-law, Sheng's father and mother are confident in leaving their daughter to him.

"Mom and Dad, I will also take good care of grandpa and grandma, Xiaoyue, and the child."

Sheng Wanze quickly expressed his opinion that apart from Sheng Wanyan, what Sheng's mother was most worried about were the elderly and children in the family.

"Sheng Wanze, you have become a father now. You have to protect your wife and children from the wind and rain."

"You can't be as irrelevant as before."

Father Sheng warned him that his son was sometimes careless and it made him angry just by looking at him.

Although he knew that his son was a capable person, his father would explode when he saw his son's careless behavior.

"Got it, Dad."

Sheng Wanze was very serious. He obviously felt the burden on his shoulders had increased after becoming a father.

He used to not understand his parents' nagging very well. He would listen to what he liked and ignore what he didn't like.

But now that I have children of my own, I realize that my parents’ nagging is all for my own good.

Sheng's father and mother placed all their hopes on Sheng Wanze, and they wished that he would have a smooth life.

I don't want him to take a wrong step. Which parent doesn't want their son to become a successful person and their daughter to become a beautiful woman?

Sheng Wanyan's father and mother were much relieved, but Sheng Wanze was still worried.

"Xiao Ze, as a husband and a father, you must take good care of your wife and children."

"Especially, you have to take good care of Pan Yue's emotions. You have to know that a woman goes through the gates of hell when she gives birth."

"She suffered for you. As a husband, you must not let your wife feel disappointed."

"You can't empathize with me, but you can't let Xiaoyue bear it all alone."

Sheng Wanze nodded quickly at his mother's words. Sheng Wanze also had some of the thoughts of men of this era, but it was true that he loved his wife.

And the most important thing is to listen to advice and feel sorry for his wife's hard work.

In fact, Sheng's mother didn't say these words just to Sheng Wanze, but to wake up Gu Tingxiao.

She hopes that her son-in-law will not stand idly by while her daughter is taking care of the baby during the confinement period.

No matter how good their son-in-law is, parents still feel uneasy.

She herself has suffered the pain of giving birth. Conditions were even worse before and she could only give birth in the village.

The food was also poor. There was a war at that time, and the conditions were very bad when Sheng Wanze was born.

At that time, Sheng's parents had not yet become workers, and Sheng's father was still in college. At that time, he still needed support from his family for everything.

Fortunately, Grandma Sheng, her mother-in-law, never treated her harshly, nor did she despise her for being a high school graduate and not worthy of Father Sheng.

During the confinement period, Sheng's mother was given the best things. Although what she gave was not rich, with only a little minced meat occasionally, she knew that those were the best things in the house.

The general environment was like that at that time. It was lucky to be able to keep your life. We were afraid that the Japanese would enter the village at any time.

And at that time, Grandpa Sheng was fighting outside, and there were only two women and Father Sheng at home.

Sheng's father went to school, leaving only the two women and the child at home, and they were worried every day.

Later, when Grandpa Sheng returned from the war, the family breathed a sigh of relief and their lives became better.

She was really grateful to Grandma Sheng for taking care of her during her confinement, and for giving her all the good things she had.

Having a good mother-in-law is something her daughter-in-law will remember for the rest of her life.

So this time she came, she took care of everything for Pan Yue. She didn't want Pan Yue to suffer the hardships of being a woman like other daughters-in-law in the village.

The pain of life, the pain of having a child, the pain of having a bad mother-in-law, the pain of having a husband who doesn’t care about you…

When I think about my own children having to suffer this kind of pain, it feels like my heart is being cut by a knife.

Although the world is stable now, the suffering of giving birth to a child is still the same.

Giving birth to a child cannot be without danger or pain.

Gu Tingxiao could see clearly the worries of Sheng's mother, and he knew that his father-in-law and mother-in-law would only believe half of what he said.

What he does is what matters most.

"Mom and Dad, when Yan'er gives birth, you must come over."

"This will definitely make Yan'er feel good."

When Mother Sheng heard what Gu Tingxiao said, she nodded. She would definitely find time to come over.

"Okay, your dad and I are getting in the car, you guys can go back too."

Sheng's mother didn't want to continue chatting, as she would miss the bus if she continued.

Mr. and Mrs. Sheng waved goodbye and set off on the road back to Chengdu.

Sheng Wanze and Gu Tingxiao did not return to the army immediately. It was a rare opportunity for them to come to the city, so naturally they wanted to bring some good things for their wives at home.

Pan Yue and Sheng Wanyan both love beauty, so the things they bring to women must be clothes and shoes.
