It's definitely not easy to get used to the days when Jiang Jingzhou isn't around.

Lin Zhaoyue goes to school every day according to the routine, and then goes home to take care of her child.

Ms. Hua Xiuyun's daily routine is even simpler: taking care of her children.

It can be said that the whole family now revolves around the two children. Hua Xiuyun suggested that Zhaoyue bring her father to the city for a few days of rehabilitation.

"Mom, I don't think it'll work," Lin Zhaoyue said uncertainly. Her father had been sent to the countryside, and without a letter of introduction, he definitely couldn't come to the city casually. Otherwise, it would be a violation of regulations and he might be punished!

“Your dad is injured now and can’t even take care of himself. How will you know if it’s possible if you don’t try to apply? It shouldn’t be a problem for him to stay for a few days. Besides, the child is all grown up and has never met his maternal grandfather.”

Hua Xiuyun said earnestly, "If you think there are no problems, I will take care of it."

"Thank you, Mom. Of course I'm fine." That's good news.

"Okay, then we'll just wait for news."

After Hua Xiuyun finished speaking, she noticed that Zhaoyue had lost a lot of weight recently. To be precise, her weight dropped sharply after giving birth, and she is very thin now.

My weight is about the same as before I was pregnant.

Ultimately, it was caused by overwork.

Hua Xiuyun was worried about her health. Was this really alright?

“Zhaoyue, I told you when you gave birth that you can rest assured that you can leave the child to me to take care of. You can do whatever you want, just don’t overwork yourself.”

"Mom, it's a favor, not an obligation, that my in-laws help me take care of my child. Besides, this is our child. If we, as parents, don't take care of him, how can we just leave him to our elders?"

This is completely irresponsible. It's one thing to have a job, but when you're not working, you should try your best to spend time with your children. This will also help you build a closer relationship with them.

Hua Xiuyun had long said that her daughter-in-law was sensible, which was reflected in every aspect.

If this happened to someone else, they would probably be overjoyed.

Why are you unhappy when someone is looking after your child?

"If anyone says that you two are irresponsible, I'll yell at them right away!"

There are no more responsible parents in the world than their son and daughter-in-law.

"..." A faint smile appeared on Lin Zhaoyue's lips. Her mother-in-law still loved to make her happy, just like always.

——

Lin Erwu was allowed to come to Beijing to recuperate for a month, and Lin Zhaoyue was so happy that she immediately arranged for a car to pick him up.

Lin Erwu arrived at the compound the next afternoon. Despite the long car ride, he showed no signs of fatigue, only joy at seeing his daughter and children.

Looking at his two grandsons, he thought about how much suffering his daughter must have endured to raise them, and he felt sorry for them.

He settled down in the compound, where there were empty rooms.

This was Jiang Guosheng's first time meeting his in-laws.

He thought Lin Erwu was the kind of person who would curry favor with the powerful, but to his surprise, the two of them got along quite well.

Jiang Guosheng confirmed that the Lin family must have been framed. If they could raise such outstanding children as Xiaobao and his daughter-in-law, their in-laws must be quite good as well.

If Lin Erwu hadn't needed to rest, Jiang Guosheng would have had a long talk with him all night long; otherwise, the two brothers would have sat down and had a good drink together!

Hua Xiuyun was speechless at his seemingly "happy" demeanor. "To be honest, you're incredibly tactless! The father and daughter haven't seen each other for so long; they must have a lot to talk about. You didn't even leave any time for your daughter-in-law. What do you have to say to your in-laws?"

“My daughter-in-law and I haven’t seen each other for so long, and I’ve never even met my in-laws before! We have so much more to say to each other.”

Jiang Guosheng said righteously, "What? Can't I talk too much? Do you expect us to fight?"

"..." Who said that! They were saying that his excessive enthusiasm made him seem a bit abnormal.

Lin Zhaoyue knew there was still time, so she decided to wait for her father to rest before continuing.

Lin Xiaobao sleeps in the same room as Lin Erwu at night so he can take care of his father.

"Xiao Bao".

Lin Erwu couldn't fall asleep for a long time, perhaps because he had suddenly changed his sleeping location.

"Dad? Do you need a drink of water or to use the restroom?"

Lin Xiaobao immediately asked with concern.

"It's nothing, I just wanted to ask you, are your brother-in-law's family good to your sister?"

Lin Erwu wanted to hear what his son had to say. His son had lived here for a long time, and he believed what his son said.

Although I can tell my daughter is a good person, I still want to ask.

“Okay, my uncle and aunt are both very good to her,” Lin Xiaobao said without hesitation. “And my brother-in-law, I have never heard them argue. Whenever they have different opinions, my brother-in-law usually listens to my sister. As for the two children in the family, my aunt and the housekeeper take care of them. My sister takes care of them when she has time, and doesn’t have to worry about them when she doesn’t.”

"..." Hearing his son say this, Lin Erwu was finally able to put his mind at ease.

"Dad, don't worry, just look at me! They take good care of me. Don't you think I've gained weight? That's because Auntie sees I'm too thin and cooks me delicious food to help me grow! I feel like if I keep eating like this, I'll become as round as a ball!"

Lin Erwu chuckled. It seemed to be true; his son had indeed gained quite a bit of weight.

"It's good that you're chubby. You'll grow up strong and look like a real man!"

"Yes! I want to be like my brother-in-law from now on." That's what Lin Xiaobao thought. He nodded very seriously, clenching his fists so tightly that there wasn't a muscle in them.

In addition, Lin Xiaobao mentioned that he hadn't seen his mother since the last time he met her.

"Dad, do you think I'm going too far? As her son, I won't even see her once."

"Not excessive,"

Lin Erwu knew what the child was thinking. That woman was a scoundrel, but the child was kind-hearted and at least still remembered her.

Lin Erwu comforted him in a low voice, "Xiao Bao, you need to understand in your heart who is truly good to you. Other people are not important at all."

You don't need to care what other people are thinking. A hundred people will have a hundred different thoughts, and you can never control what others think, including your mother. If she truly cared about you as her son, she would have taken you with her even if she ran away. She wouldn't have just watched you suffer in the countryside with me. If it weren't for your sister, your life would be over!

I am destined to stay in the countryside for the rest of my life, even if I have the opportunity to return to Beijing in the future.

If you miss the best age for learning, no matter how much you study, it will be useless!

Do what is appropriate for your age.
