At Mrs. Tian’s age now, there is no need to consider whether the painkillers will cause any harm to Mr. Tian. The most important thing is to let Mrs. Tian spend her later years comfortably and without suffering.
Tian Tian bought some painkillers and some calcium supplements in the hospital, and received a lot of complaints from Old Man Tian. Then she took them to the supply and marketing cooperative and bought a lot of things. These things were to be given to those people in the family who had a good relationship with her. However, the most valuable things were those given by Chen Guihua and her family.
After they finished buying a lot of things and returned home, it was already evening. When they got home, Gu Zhao had already picked up the child. Tian Zhuo was looking after the child while Gu Zhao went to the kitchen to cook.
Gu Zhao now would rather go to the kitchen to cook than take care of the children.
Tian Tian hadn't seen her child for the whole day and missed him so much that she quickly washed her hands and face, changed her clothes, and ran over to kiss the child.
She successfully woke up the sleeping baby with a kiss. Hearing the crying, Tian Tian felt guilty and stopped her actions. She reached out and gently patted Gu Weian. Gu Weian was an angel to begin with. The baby only ate and slept all day, so it was easy to coax him to sleep.
"You're teasing the child again!" Lin Meiyu said dissatisfiedly after changing her clothes and hearing the noise.
Gu Weian has never wanted to cry since she was young, but she has an unreliable mother who always likes to tease her. When Tian Tian sees Gu Weian crying, she laughs out loud. However, Gu Weian often stops crying after crying once or twice. She stares at Tian Tian with her big round eyes, dancing and laughing along with Tian Tian, which melts Tian Tian's heart.
"Have you bought the ticket?" After talking to Tian Tian, Lin Meiyu turned to ask Tian Zhuo.
Tian Zhuo nodded, "I bought it. Three sleeper tickets for tomorrow morning!"
"Why did you buy a sleeper ticket? You know our home is not far away. You can just take a hard seat and get there in one day and one night. Why do you spend extra money on a sleeper ticket? Your dad, your grandma and I can't sleep on the sleeper berths!" Lin Meiyu said unhappily after hearing this, and felt that Tian Zhuo was spending money recklessly.
They really spent a lot of money today. They didn't know how much the physical examination at the hospital cost. Tian Tian also bought various medicines and nutritional supplements, which was another large sum of money. After returning from the hospital, she went to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy a lot more. The money spent this day was beyond Lin Meiyu's imagination. Now that she knew that Tian Zhuo bought a sleeper ticket, Lin Meiyu was in an even worse mood.
"Mom, don't tell me that I gave Tian Zhuo the money to buy a sleeper berth." Tian Tian stepped forward and took all the responsibility on herself. "You should know the results of the hospital's examination. We should treat our illnesses, but the key is to have a good rest. It's so tiring to sit on the train for a whole day and night. Even a young man like me would get sick every time I come back from the train, not to mention that you are not young anymore."
"The sleeper berths on that train are few in number, and they are soft and comfortable. You can sleep soundly on the train, and when you wake up you will be home. Isn't that good?"
"What's so good about that? Have you ever seen a berth with a small space on top that can accommodate a person? Only the lower berth is a little more comfortable!"
"That's better than sitting in a hard seat for a day and a night. Don't say that. The tickets have already been bought and can't be refunded. If you say that, I'm still not happy. Then I've spent money again and I'm not happy." Tian Tian said with some unhappiness.
During the physical examination today, Lin Meiyu would scold Tian Tian for every test. She obviously didn't have this problem before, but she didn't know who she learned it from. Now that she is old, she has developed this nagging habit.
"I just feel sorry for you. You are the head of the household, how can you not save money? You can't be as extravagant as before, especially now that you have a child. The child has grown up, and it doesn't cost money to get married or go to school. Can you still just care about your own happiness? Can't you save some money for the child? I'm talking to you, and you're still not happy?"
"She doesn't really need money to go to school. I'm a faculty member of the school and my tuition is free!" said Tian Tian.
The welfare at that time was still very good, and it really didn't cost much to raise a child at that time, and the prices were also low. Tian Tian and Gu Zhao were not particularly greedy, and sometimes they might improve their meals, but usually they cooked and ate at home, or ate in the cafeteria. Their living expenses for a month, even if one more person was added, were enough to cover Gu Zhao's monthly salary, so they basically didn't have to move.
Their current salary is definitely not low. The total salary for the two of them is over one hundred yuan, which is considered a high-income group at this time.
But Lin Meiyu didn't know that her thoughts were still stuck in the time when she was farming to make money every year. It was very difficult to make money at that time. In addition, the money she earned every year had to be paid for the children's schooling. So Lin Meiyu also wanted Tian Tian to save a little, at least to have some money in her pocket for emergencies.
"Alright, alright, what are you arguing about? It's just a soft sleeper. I'm so old and I've never ridden one. I'll try it tomorrow and then I'll brag to them in the village that I'm also an old lady who has ridden a soft sleeper!" Old Mrs. Tian couldn't stand it anymore and came out to smooth things over.
"I always take a soft sleeper when I go out. Aren't soft sleepers and hard sleepers good as well? I don't think there's anything good about soft sleepers!" Lin Meiyu muttered softly.
She had taken a soft sleeper before, but it was just so-so. Her back and waist ached after lying there for a whole day and night. Since both of them caused her back and waist aches, she might as well choose the cheapest one.
"Tiantian, aren't you just feeling sorry for an old lady like me? How can my old bones endure sitting like this for a whole day and a night?" said Old Man Tian.
Lin Meiyu then stopped talking.
After they finished talking, Gu Zhao poked his head out of the kitchen and said to them with a smile, "Mom and Dad! Let's clean up and eat!"
They also hurried to help Gu Zhao clean the table and carry the dishes. July is the season for vegetable growth, so the table is full of green vegetables, including kidney beans, eggplants, peppers, tomatoes, and stir-fried Chinese cabbage and leeks, making a large table full of dishes.
"Why did you cook so many?" Tian Tian was a little surprised when she saw such a large table of dishes.
"There are many people at home, so fry more and everyone will enjoy it!" Gu Zhao said with a smile.
As Gu Weian was sleeping, everyone quickly went to the table and ate the food. It was a very rare opportunity to have a reunion dinner.
"When does your school have holidays?" Tian Tian asked Tian Zhuo.
