Chapter 190 Unwilling to Serve Confinement
Before, Zhou Hongying treated his wife badly and despised her. He even despised her for giving birth to two girls.
It's different now.
This time he gave birth to a son, not a girl, so his mother would definitely be willing to take care of his wife.
Lu Jianjun went to tell 㫅齂 the good news.
Zhou Hongying and Lu Youtian were indeed very happy when they knew that the third wife had given birth to a son.
As a wife, it is natural for one to hope that there will be many male descendants in the family.
If you want to have a child, you have to give birth to a son. If you give birth to a daughter, she is for someone else.
The couple seemed to have forgotten that Lu Fangfang is also a daughter, but they still treasured her very much.
Seeing that 㫅齂 was happy, Lu Jianjun casually said, "Mom, Ailan is in confinement after giving birth, and you are not busy during this period. Why don't you go and take care of her for a month?"
Hearing Lu Jianjun's words, Zhou Hongying's face tensed, "I'm not feeling well, and I want to take a good rest before the spring plowing season.
You actually asked me to serve your wife, do you want to tire me to death?"
Lu Jianjun frowned and said, "But mom, if you don't go, I can't take care of Ailan by myself.
Isn't it the mother-in-law who takes care of the daughter-in-law when she gives birth in this brigade?"
Zhou Hongying knew that it was natural for the mother-in-law to take care of her daughter-in-law during the confinement period.
If word gets out that he is unwilling to take care of his daughter-in-law during her confinement, he will probably be talked about to death.
However, she was definitely unwilling to serve Li Ailan like this.
So he discussed with Lu Jianjun, "I can serve your wife, but as agreed, you have to give me ten yuan as compensation."
When Lu Jianjun heard that he asked his mother to take care of him during the confinement period, she actually charged him money.
As a family, shouldn't we help each other more?
Especially when the mother-in-law takes care of the baby during confinement, this is the rule in the countryside, who would ask for money?
Lu Jianjun immediately became unhappy.
"Mom, since you are so unwilling to take care of Ailan during her confinement, then forget it. Can't we just not count on you?"
After saying that, Lu Jianjun became angry.
While waiting for Lu Jianjun to come back, Li Ailan looked at his expression and guessed the result.
"Is it because mother doesn't want to come and take care of me during my confinement?"
Lu Jianjun nodded.
He was too embarrassed to tell his mother that she was willing to come over, but she wanted ten dollars.
He felt embarrassed to mention this in front of his wife.
Li Ailan seemed to have prepared for this mentally. She said to Lu Jianjun, "Since mother doesn't want to take care of me, then forget it."
Facing Li Ailan's relaxed and calm face, which did not show any anger at all, Lu Jianjun was a little puzzled.
"Wife, my mother doesn't want to come, aren't you angry?"
"Why are you angry? Didn't you already know that you can't rely on your parents?
It’s okay. If mom doesn’t want to come, you can go to my mother’s house and ask her to come and take care of me during the confinement period.
In fact, it would be better if my mother came to take care of me during the confinement period."
After all, mother-in-law is not mother.
Even if Zhou Hongying was willing to take care of her during her confinement, Li Ailan knew that she would definitely not be as dedicated as her own mother.
If her mother-in-law is willing to come and serve her, she won't bother her biological mother.
But now my mother-in-law doesn't want to come, so I can only trouble my own mother.
Lu Jianjun had no confidence that he could take good care of Li Ailan during her confinement. After all, he was a rough guy and could not even cook.
If he were to take care of his wife during her confinement, he would definitely treat her unfairly.
So let’s call my mother-in-law over.
My mother-in-law lived in the production team next door, not far away.
