Chapter 458: For the first thirty years, I couldn't wake up; for the next thirty years, I couldn't fall asleep.
When Jian Ziyue returned this time, apart from his mother, no one else in the Jian family knew about the Li family's idea.
However, as always, they stayed at home, just like An Songyu and the others, and prepared to go back the next day.
I heard that An Songyu and the others also left the next day.
Jian Ziyue glanced at her parents subconsciously.
Knowing her daughter's temperament, Jane's mother smiled and helped her daughter-in-law explain, "So, Ayu, are you going to leave early tomorrow?"
"Should we go to Rongdi first, or go directly to Zhongcheng?"
Because of the unique wedding the young couple held, the two families got to know each other's relatives better.
“We need to get to Rongdi first!” An Songyu replied obediently, “My parents said they don’t plan to drive so many cars over.”
Parking is also not very convenient at her uncle's place.
"Then you'll have to get up early tomorrow morning," Jane's mother reminded her with a smile.
An Songyu nodded slightly: "It will be a little earlier, but it doesn't need to be particularly early."
The distance between Zhongcheng and Shuncheng... in some places it might be more convenient to travel between them than within Shuncheng itself.
That evening, after An Songyu and his wife returned to their room, Jian Ziyue took the opportunity to get something and spoke with Jian's mother:
"Mom, aren't you going to Grandma's house tomorrow?"
"You want to come with us?" Jane's mother paused, turning to look at her daughter in surprise.
In previous years, when the couple returned, they never went with them.
Jian Ziyue shook his head.
Although she was puzzled because An Songyu and his wife wouldn't be there tomorrow, she had absolutely no interest in going to her grandmother's house.
Mrs. Jian finally realized what was happening. She took her daughter's hand and said, "Xiao Yue, don't worry!"
“It’s been discussed with your sister-in-law, brother, and sister-in-law.”
"Your sister-in-law will go back to her parents' home tomorrow, and the day after tomorrow our whole family will go to your maternal grandmother's house together."
Jian Ziyue immediately breathed a sigh of relief, and looked at her mother somewhat embarrassedly.
Jane's mother gently patted her daughter's hand, "You... don't worry about me!"
Jian Ziyue sighed softly; she actually had mixed feelings.
I feel it's a bit inappropriate that my younger siblings aren't going to my parents' house tomorrow, but I also feel that whether or not we go to my grandma's house doesn't really matter.
Of course, after hearing what Jane's mother said, all that's left is to worry about her younger siblings.
Jane's mother gently patted her daughter.
There are some things she finds difficult to say, even as a mother.
After all, the extent to which her biological mother favored sons over daughters directly harmed her.
Although her mother's attitude changed drastically after she became a city dweller.
But when it comes to her daughter, she still finds it difficult to change her mindset.
Although, for her mother, not saying even a few harsh words to her daughter was already the best attitude one could ask for.
However, there is a stark contrast in how she treats her two sons.
Even when Jian Ziyue was very young, she had already noticed the difference.
When Jian's older brother got married, Jian Ziyue thought that since his sister-in-law was his wife, his grandmother would be more accommodating.
As a result... thinking about how Sister-in-law Jian was almost subjected to the rules for a new bride that day, Jian Ziyue hesitated.
Or... should she stay another day?
As for the matter of not letting his younger brother and sister-in-law go, Jianzi dared not bring it up again.
Her maternal grandmother... not only favored boys over girls, but also acted with an air of authority befitting an elder.
If my sister-in-law really doesn't go, maybe one day she'll actually come to their house.
Given her grandmother's temperament, it's unlikely to end well!
Unfortunately, she is now in her eighties or nineties.
Even if the younger generation had opinions about her personality and behavior, they couldn't be too angry with her.
The next morning, when An Songyu and her companion got up, they found that Jian's mother had already prepared breakfast.
She looked at her sister-in-law, who had also just gotten up, and noticed that the other woman had the same embarrassment on her face.
Just then, Jian Ziyue, who was helping Jian's mother make breakfast, also came out.
Now the two sisters-in-law couldn't even stand up.
As the two walked into the kitchen, Jian Ziyue didn't even have a chance to stop them.
Oh well, there's nothing in the kitchen that they need to do anyway.
Sure enough, when the two entered the kitchen, they saw Jane's mother serving porridge.
So, apart from helping to bring out the porridge, the two of them couldn't do anything else.
Mrs. Jian could see that her two daughters-in-law were embarrassed, so she smiled and comforted them, saying, "It's normal for you young people not to be able to get up in the morning."
"At our age, once we wake up in the middle of the night, we can't fall back asleep."
There's a saying that goes, "You can't wake up for the first thirty years, and you can't fall asleep for the next thirty."
"You young people should sleep as much as you can while you're young."
"Otherwise, when we get to our age, it won't be easy to get any more sleep!"
Sister-in-law Jian thought her mother-in-law was comforting her, and she was deeply moved.
An Songyu, however, suddenly remembered her age before her rebirth.
Although I am indeed not as old as my mother-in-law is now.
But I have indeed started to have trouble sleeping.
Fortunately, Jane's mother didn't stop what she was doing while chatting with her two daughters-in-law.
Otherwise, seeing the young wife's face full of agreement with what she said would be unsettling.
They'd probably be shocked!
The breakfast that Jane's mother and her husband prepared today was not particularly complicated.
Besides the salted bone and dried vegetable congee with peanuts, I also pan-fried some homemade dumplings.
However, the dumplings weren't made by the mother and daughter early this morning.
In addition, there was a small dish of soy sauce and colorful peppers.
After finishing breakfast, An Songyu and Jian Ziyu, along with Jian's older brother and his wife who had also gone out together, dropped them off near Jian's sister-in-law's parents' home before setting off for Rongdi.
Although Sister-in-law Jian's family home was not entirely on the same route as their destination.
But the two places are actually not far apart.
It's really not much trouble to give it to someone on the way.
Brother Jian and his wife, however, were exceptionally polite.
After all, An Songyu and her friends weren't just going back to their parents' home today.
When An Songyu and his wife arrived, they found that An Jianping and his wife were already ready to leave.
Both cars were crammed full of stuff.
An Songyu and her companion tried to put some of the things that Jian's mother had prepared inside, but they couldn't find a place to put them.
After the two of them finally managed to put their things away, An Songyu got into the car and asked, "Mom and Dad, didn't they say that a lot of the chickens we raised were caught on the first day of the Lunar New Year?"
As An Jianping started the car, he nodded affirmatively: "A lot of them were caught, but there's still enough food for my family."
An Songyu fell silent for a moment.
Did her father not consider how much their whole family could possibly eat?
"Did the village catch a lot of chickens over there?" Bi Lizhu asked with some doubt as she fastened her seatbelt.
An Jianping didn't answer directly, but instead smiled at An Songyu in the rearview mirror.
Now, An Songyu realized what was happening.
It's likely that the villagers did catch some.
But the number was not as much as she had imagined.
After all, when the village holds a banquet, they prepare one per table.
Not one less is acceptable.
Given that the difference in quantity is not significant, it's normal to find their home.
However, judging from An Jianping's reaction, An Songyu knew that her father must have found out about what happened on the table that day.
Come to think of it, there's more than just her brother at the table; her cousin is there too!
It's not surprising that An Jianping knew about this.
Seeing the father and daughter like this, Bi Lizhu knew that there was something she didn't know.
She glared at the two of them with a hint of annoyance, then turned to look out the window.
Out of sight, out of mind!
Haven't those father and daughter done many things behind her back?
