Chapter 1261 I think you've gotten arrogant since you came to the city.
When Xiao's mother heard that it was a job at a textile factory, she didn't think of Chu Xue: "That's good. I didn't expect you to have this kind of luck."
No matter what, Xia Qiu, a daughter of a prominent family, was different in her heart. This was their first child, born with great anticipation.
Xia Qiu said to her mother, "Mom, then I'll have to trouble you to take care of Dongdong from now on."
Xiao's mother rolled her eyes at her: "Dongdong is my grandson. Besides, you already said you'd give him ten yuan a month. I have to take good care of him even without you saying so."
That being said, Xiao's mother actually had her own plans. When she gave birth to the three sisters in the countryside, she never had a proper postpartum period. After the children got a little older, she had to carry them to the fields to earn work points, which was a real hardship.
Now that I've given birth to my son and completed a month of postpartum confinement, I don't know if it's because I'm in a good mood or because I've really had a good postpartum period, but my body feels much better than before.
I've heard a lot of people say that if you take good care of yourself during postpartum confinement, all the deficiencies and ailments in your body beforehand can be restored.
She doesn't have a job now and doesn't need to work in the fields to earn work points anymore. Even if her stepmother-in-law leaves in a few days, with Chunxiao and Xiaqiu helping her, she won't be too tired even if she has to take care of two children.
The main thing is that Xia Qiu now has a job, so she will naturally have more money in the future. When she buys delicious food for her son, how could she forget about her younger brother?
No matter how you look at it, the advantages outweigh the disadvantages.
Thinking that Xia Qiu and Chu Xue both have jobs, I feel more confident. Once I'm out of confinement, I'll definitely take my son back to the village. Then we'll see who dares to laugh at me.
I'm so envious of them.
Before she could even fully enjoy her meal, Xiao's father brought the food into the house: "Dinner's ready."
Having accomplished her task, Xia Qiu picked up her son and said, "Mom, you eat first. I'm going to Auntie's place. Is there anyone else I can help with?"
Actually, she was afraid that her parents would start arguing again and she would be caught in the crossfire.
Sure enough, after a while, Xiao's mother started scolding Xiao's father again. But this time, Xiao's father was smarter and directly changed the subject: "Alright, the postpartum period is over. In a few days, the old man will come back to the city to pick up Aunt Miao. Xia Qiu will have to go back to work. You should think about how to take good care of the two children."
Upon hearing this, Xiao's mother asked, "Did the old man tell you when he was coming to pick them up?"
Mr. Xiao put down the food he was holding: "My older brother came to see me a few days ago. The old man called him."
Xiao's mother was well taken care of by Miao Yiqiu during her postpartum period. She had gotten used to being waited on hand and foot: "Xiaqiu has to go to work and asked me to help take care of the children. How can I manage to take care of two children by myself? Aunt Miao, can't you stay a little longer and wait until our son is a little older before going back to the clan's territory with Grandpa?"
Mr. Xiao's face immediately turned cold: "Back in the village, only you, eldest son, had a nine-day postpartum confinement period. Chu Xue and Chun Xiao, you got back to work three days after giving birth. Now it's been over forty days, and you're still not satisfied. Besides, it's already very kind of Aunt Miao to come and take care of you during your confinement. You still want her to stay? Zhao Lamei, don't push your luck. I think you've gotten arrogant since you came to the city."
Upon hearing this, Xiao's mother blushed and muttered, "What did I say? It's just lending a hand. Besides, won't their father rely on us in the future?"
Mr. Xiao stared at her with wide eyes: "Whether it's the old man or Aunt Miao, they can go to the retirement home. Even if they can't move in the future, they will be taken care of by special people. Relying on you is probably wishful thinking."
Xiao's mother genuinely didn't know any of this, and her eyes widened in disbelief: "Are you serious?"
