Lu Jianjun rode his bicycle and soon arrived at Li Ailan's parents' home.
Seeing Lu Jianjun coming, Li Ailan's mother, Old Lady Li, wondered if her daughter was born and her son-in-law came to announce the good news.
So when she saw Lu Jianjun, Mrs. Li immediately asked him, "Jianjun, how is it? Did Ailan give birth? Is it a boy or a girl?"
Old Mrs. Li naturally hopes that her daughter can give birth to a son.
Only when you have a son can you be strong. Without a son, you will be laughed at by others.
If you don't have a son, no matter how successful you are in the team, others will not envy you. In fact, the more successful you are, the more people will talk about your not having a son.
Lu Jianjun nodded, "Yes, mother, Ailan gave birth to a son."
When she heard that Li Ailan had given birth to a son, Mrs. Li immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
Then he muttered, "Give birth to a son, then you will be the one with a son, and you won't be afraid of being laughed at."
Lu Jianjun nodded, and then told the purpose of his visit today.
"Mom, Ailan is in confinement after giving birth. I wonder if you could take care of her for a month."
After Lu Jianjun asked, he felt a little uneasy.
He is mainly afraid that his mother-in-law will question him, asking why his mother doesn't take care of him.
I really don't want to say it.
Who knew that Old Lady Li didn't ask any questions, but agreed immediately, "Okay, it's not spring ploughing yet, so we're not busy. I'll take care of your wife for a month. When we come back, we might be busy. It's the right time for Ailan to give birth this time!"
Li Ailan didn't ask why Lu Jianjun didn't take care of his mother, mainly because she knew the character of her own in-laws.
It is better to expect a sow to climb a tree than to expect her to take care of her daughter during her confinement.
It would be more reassuring for her daughter to be taken care of personally during the confinement period.
The confinement period for women is very important. If they don’t take good care of themselves, they will easily suffer from confinement diseases.
Of course, Mrs. Li doesn't want her daughter to lose her health.
It would be fine if you said you didn't have time during the busy farming season, but don't we have time now?
Lu Jianjun didn't expect that his mother-in-law would agree so readily.
He couldn't help feeling touched.
Compared to my own mother, my mother-in-law treats the old couple better.
"Thank you, mother."
Lu Jianjun thanked Mrs. Li very sincerely.
Old Lady Li hurriedly said, "Why are you talking to me about this, kid?
Ailan is my own daughter, so what if I take care of her during her confinement? "
Lu Jianjun stopped being polite with Old Lady Li.
However, he always remembered the help from Mrs. Li.
If I have the chance in the future, I will definitely repay my mother-in-law.
Old Mrs. Li is going to follow Lu Jianjun to take care of her own daughter during her confinement, so she has to pack two sets of clothes for replacement.
So Old Mrs. Li went into the house to clean up.
Soon, Mrs. Li packed her luggage and left.
In addition to her own clothes, there were also twenty eggs saved for Li Ailan.
When my daughter is in confinement after childbirth, as a mother I must give her something to nourish her body.
The cheapest thing a countryman could offer was an egg.
These twenty eggs are not too many, but not too few either.
If it wasn't her own daughter, she wouldn't be willing to give it to her.
Lu Jianjun saw that his mother-in-law had taken twenty
When he saw an egg, he suddenly felt that the gap between his mother and his mother-in-law was quite big.
My own mother is unwilling to help, and even refuses to give me anything.
But my mother-in-law not only works hard but is also willing to give gifts.
