Mu Qing, hounded by marriage pressure to the point of not daring to return home, rented her elder brother's classmate, Ye Junbo, to pretend to be her husband, all for the sake of a peaceful lif...
The Xu family now has the best living conditions in the village. Everyone says that Mu Jing and his wife are lucky. Their son married a capable daughter-in-law, and their daughter is even luckier, marrying into a wealthy family and becoming a lady. Their in-laws don't look down on them for being from the countryside and have close contacts with them.
Mu Qing said with a helpless smile, "Dad, you wouldn't be as obvious as Mom, but you said it out loud. I used to be the one you loved the most, but now, I didn't bring the two little ones back, and Mom wants to kick me out."
The relationship between generations is very close, it is really very close.
But she and her grandparents are of different generations. Her grandparents used to love her the most, and now they are the same as her mother. They like to see her twin boy and girl.
Mu Jing smiled and helped his daughter move things.
"My mother-in-law stuffed my car so full. Dad, let me make it clear that when I come back, please don't stuff so many things in my car. This is a sedan, not a truck."
Mu Qing also helped to carry things.
The father and daughter moved all the things from the car into the house together, and soon filled the coffee table and sofa.
Grandpa Mu watched his granddaughter moving things and said, "Qingqing, we have everything we need at home. You don't have to keep moving things home. If you move so many things, people will say you're always moving things back to your mother's house."
He was afraid that his in-laws would say something about his granddaughter.
Even though the Jun family treats Mu Qing very well.
"Grandpa, this is what my mother-in-law insisted I bring back. I told her we had everything we needed, but she insisted on stuffing it into my car. Also, when I go back later, don't bring so many things back for me."
Grandpa Mu said, "You brought so many things back from your in-laws' house. How could we let you go back empty-handed? Next time, you don't have to bring anything, just the two kids. You can turn things around now, right?"
Because the old man was old, he seldom went out. When the twins were one month old, he went to have a full-month banquet and saw the twins.
The old man didn’t even attend the hundred-day banquet.
I can only look at the photos through my phone.
"Yan Yan has been able to turn over in the past two days, but Ye Yao doesn't want to turn over at all. He either eats or cries, or kicks the quilt or the bed."
Grandma Mu smiled and said, "Yan Yan is as smart as you were when you were little. You could roll over when you were three months old."
Mu Qing smiled, "Really? That's what I said. Yanyan looks more like me. Junbo always argues with me, saying that our daughter looks like him and our son looks like me."
In fact, the Mu Qing that Grandma Mu mentioned was the real Mu Qing, the child who died of illness when she was just a few months old, and the current Mu Qing took her place.
After all, when Mu Qing was picked up by the Mu family, she was already more than six months old and could have turned over a new leaf long ago.
"It's time to eat."
Zhang Guifeng shouted in the kitchen.
Mu Qing put down her things and turned into the kitchen.
I entered the kitchen and walked to the stove to look, "Mom, what delicious food did you make?"
"Chives and egg pancakes, I haven't eaten them for a long time."
Mu Qing reached out to take the omelet and eat it, but her mother slapped her hand away.
"Go wash your hands. You have chopsticks, but you don't know how to use them? You're already grown up, a mother of two, and you still eat with your hands."
Mu Qing grabbed some food with her hands, then went to wash her hands and said with a smile, "No matter how old you are, you are still a child in front of Mom. I came back just in time, just in time for dinner."
Zhang Guifeng said, "You wanted to come back but didn't call in advance. Mom didn't know you were coming back, so she didn't buy the dishes you like."
Now that the children are not at home, it is just her, her husband, and her parents-in-law, and they eat very ordinary meals.
She made a plate of cola chicken wings, which her parents-in-law liked, then fried some leek and egg pancakes, steamed a sea bass, and stir-fried a plate of vegetables that were grown at home.
"Mom, I want to eat your home-cooked meals right now. No need for big fish or meat, just some home-cooked dishes."
After washing her hands, Mu Qing saw the pickled taro shoots her mother had made. She asked, "Mom, are your pickled taro shoots ready to eat?"
"It's time to eat, right? It hasn't started yet, do you want to eat?"
"Yes."
As Mu Qing spoke, she opened the jar of pickled taro shoots. After taking a look, she said, "It's ready to eat, Mom. Make some for me. Do you have any porridge? The pickled taro shoots are sour with the porridge. I can eat three bowls of porridge."
"There's rice and porridge."
Zhang Guifeng went to get a pair of disposable gloves, put them on, and reached into the jar to grab a few handfuls of taro shoots to make sour food.
"Take out the dishes Mom has prepared first. The taro sour will be ready soon."
"good."
Mu Qing helped her mother serve the cooked dishes.
Grandpa and grandma have already cleared the table.
"Where's my dad?"
Mu Qing asked when she didn't see her father.
"Your dad went to buy braised pork on his bike."
Mu Qing said, "There are already a lot of dishes. Dad also went to buy braised pork. Now the last thing I want to eat is meat. It will make me fat."
"Why are you gaining weight? Other people are chubby after confinement, but you lost a lot of weight after confinement. You need to eat more now. Grandma likes to see you with more flesh."
Grandma Mu thinks her granddaughter is too thin.
"Grandma, I gained a lot of weight when I came out of confinement. I controlled my diet for the past two months and finally lost weight."
"No more dieting! Meat brings happiness. You young people always talk about losing weight, but I don't like those who try to lose weight."
Mu Qing stuck out her tongue playfully, "Okay, okay, I'm not losing weight, I'm gaining weight."
She has never been fat.
Even when she was pregnant, her belly just got bigger and she didn't gain much weight. After the baby was born, her figure recovered quite quickly.
Not long after, Mu Jing came back.
As soon as he entered the room, he said to Mu Qing, "Bring an extra set of bowls and chopsticks, Junbo is here."
As soon as he finished speaking, Ye Junbo's car drove into the yard.
"Why is he here?"
"Why, you can come, but my grandson-in-law can't?" Grandma Mu immediately said to her granddaughter.
Mu Qing smiled, "I can come, I can come, grandma, you are always becoming more and more partial. When your grandson-in-law comes, your granddaughter has to stand aside. If my eldest brother and his wife are at home, my eldest sister-in-law will be ranked first, then Junbo will be ranked second, and I will be ranked third. Haha, I feel better when my brother is at the bottom."
"Grandma has been watching you and your brother and sister for decades, and she's long been tired of it. Now she likes watching her granddaughter-in-law and grandson-in-law."
Mu Qing walked out of the house with a smile on her face. Seeing Ye Junbo getting out of the car, she walked towards him and asked, "Aren't you busy at the company? Why are you here? I just came back to get some things and will be back in the evening."
"I'm free now. When I heard you were coming, I came to see my parents, grandparents, and grandparents."
Ye Junbo got out of the car carrying two large bags of things. Mu Qing asked him, "What did you buy for your mother-in-law? I brought a whole cart here, and my parents are complaining that I only brought things here and didn't bring the kids back."
"Junbo, I'm going to fall out of favor. Do you know what my mother said after I got off the car? She got in the car and looked for her grandson and granddaughter, but couldn't find them. She said to me, 'If I don't bring the children back, what am I doing back?'"
