Xu Yin has been very busy recently. It seems that she has caught an important person and comes back much later than usual. Lu Ye goes to pick her up every day.
While Shen Wu was coaxing the baby in her room, Aunt Zhao came over with some herbs: "Xiao Wu!"
"Hey! In the house."
Chen Wu came out while shouting.
Aunt Zhao waved her hand and said, "No need to go out. I'll come to your house to dry some herbs. I don't have any land to dry them at home."
There are many medicinal herbs in this season, and Aunt Zhao often looks for them on weekdays. She even takes Lu Xuan and Lu Ye to the mountains and gives her any herbs they see.
Aunt Zhao got a dustpan and spread the herbs on it, placing it in a sunny spot. After drying them, she asked Chen Wu, "Is your body clean?"
Shen Wu was stunned for a moment before she realized she was talking about postpartum lochia. She nodded and said, "It's been almost fifty days. It's all gone."
"During this period, I have been drinking the recipe you prepared."
Aunt Zhao was finally satisfied. She took her pulse and said with a smile, "Take good care of your body. Your health is your capital. No one is as good as you."
"You're right." Chen Wu smiled and said, "I think you're different from others."
"What's the difference? We're all old women now." Aunt Zhao teased Xiaoman and said with a smile.
"I'm talking about the difference in thinking. You're wise!" Shen Wu said while giving a thumbs up.
Aunt Zhao smiled and said, "That's because I've experienced a lot. Every failure makes me wiser. By the way, what will you do with the child after your maternity leave ends?"
"I was just worrying about this before you came." Chen Wu's face fell. "If it really doesn't work out, then Brother Lu Xuan will stay at home to take care of the kids. I'll go home after class."
On average, she has four classes a day.
Her average work points were higher than Lu Xuan's. In addition to the work points, she also received five yuan, and the school would occasionally give her towels, soap, etc.
"Then you two can go to work and teach, and I'll help you take care of the kids."
Shen Wu looked at Aunt Zhao in astonishment.
Aunt Zhao said, "It's not like I'm helping you for free. How about giving me half of your or Lu Xuan's work points? I'm old and don't want to work anymore. Delivering babies and treating minor illnesses on a daily basis plus half of your work points is enough to make a living."
"I know, you're just saying that to comfort me." Chen Wu's eyes were red: "Aunt, you treat me better than my parents."
As she spoke, Shen Wu hugged Aunt Zhao.
She was warm and had a light herbal scent that made people feel at ease.
Lu Xuan saw this scene as he entered the room. He thought he had entered the wrong place and coughed lightly.
Lu Xiaoniao, the sandwich in the middle, also waved his fist at his father, smiling toothlessly and looking very cute.
Only then did Shen Wu let go of Aunt Zhao.
Lu Xuan handed her a tissue and said nervously, "What's wrong?"
Aunt Zhao had told him many times that pregnant women's emotions were unstable, and their moods were also unstable after childbirth. Some of the serious cases even resulted in suicide. He was afraid that something might happen to his wife.
Chen Wu shook her head: "Nothing, I was just worried about what to do with my child when school starts."
"I have already arranged it. I told the team leader that I will take the lead. Your work points and salary are high in our family." Lu Xuan's voice was so gentle when he spoke to his wife.
Aunt Zhao said, "You young people should just be busy. I'll help you take care of the children. When the time comes, you can give me half of your monthly work points. I just agreed with Shen Wu."
Lu Xuan now understood why Chen Wu was crying.
She was not loved by her father and mother, so when someone treated her sincerely like this, she must feel different.
Lu Xuan looked at Aunt Zhao and said, "Aunt, you are right. You are doing me and Shen Wu a great favor by helping us take care of the children. You take care of the little ones for us, and Shen Wu and I will take care of you in your old age."
"Oh, I already have a son, so why do I need you to take care of me in my old age? My son and daughter-in-law are both fine. Just let Xiao Wu help me take care of the child at school. My grandson doesn't like to study, so you should keep an eye on him."
Chen Wu said, "Don't worry! I'll take care of it."
At this time, a little boy of about ten years old who was having fun in the village suddenly felt a little cold on his back.
Shen Wu did not tell the Shen family about the news of her giving birth, and no one knew where Shen Shu and Shen Li got the news. When she was talking to Aunt Zhao, the two of them came to see her together.
As soon as Chen Li entered the room, she said, "You've severed ties with your parents, and you've severed ties with us too? You didn't even tell me you were having a baby."
There was still some complaint in his tone, but he put down some eggs in his hand: "I'll give you all the eggs laid by my old hen to nourish your body."
Also present were her son and Shen Shu's daughter Chen Tian.
Last time, after eating delicious cookies at her place, Chen Tian ran over with a smile: "Auntie."
The little boy next to Chen Tian also called out, "Auntie."
In essence, she replaced "Chen Wu", but she didn't have much feelings for the relatives that Long Yujiao arranged for her. After all, they had never gotten along with each other. When she notified people, she didn't think about this at all.
I was a little surprised at their arrival.
"How can that be?" he said as he gave the child some food.
There were all kinds of cakes at Shen Wu's house, and the two children were very happy.
Aunt Zhao smiled and said, "I'm going back first. When you go to work, please send the child to me."
Shen Shu asked, "Aren't you going to take care of your child yourself?"
Chen Wu said, "I work at school, and I don't want to lose my job. I originally wanted to let Lu Xuan take care of her, but Aunt Zhao said she would help me, and Lu Xuan and I would give her work points when the time comes."
Whether it was letting an outsider take care of the child to get work points or letting Lu Xuan take care of the child, she felt it was very strange.
But looking at Lu Xuan feeding the child water with a bottle, he seemed quite skilled.
Instead, Shen Li said, "That's good. The child will be taken care of, your job will be saved, and your husband can continue to work. But the person has to be reliable. But if you can agree to this, it must be someone you trust."
