Chapter 245 Sister Mu changes her ways and asks neighbors for help
"I will take care of you when you give birth to the baby." Mu Fengzhen said proactively.
Old Man Mu looked at his daughter in surprise: The sun rises from the west?
"We'll talk about it when the time comes." Su Tang looked at Yu Miaomiao subconsciously.
It doesn’t matter who takes care of her, but I really want Miaomiao to be by her side!
Yu Miaomiao understood her and nodded: "Don't worry, I'm here."
Only then did Su Tang smile with relief.
That relaxation that came from the heart made Mu Jingzhou feel a little sad.
The daughter-in-law depends on her second sister-in-law much more than on him!
Mu Jingrong was envious, but unfortunately he was a boy. If he was a girl, he could take care of his third sister-in-law during her confinement.
"Okay, you guys go back first! I don't have anything to do recently, so I'll come to take care of the fifth brother during the day and take over shifts with dad." Mu Fengzhen seemed to know that her father was unreliable, so she took the initiative to assume part of the responsibility of taking care of her younger brother.
Yu Miaomiao was quite pleased.
Mu Fengzhen was picky with her brothers and sisters, but she was devoted to her family. Especially now that she had lost weight, her mood had stabilized a lot, and she was getting better at dealing with people and doing things.
Several people drove back to the village. Without the old man to accompany them, Old Mrs. Mu became even more silent and no longer dared to show off that she was riding in the car alone.
After arriving home, Su Tang packed up and prepared to return to the provincial capital - the Su family had given her too many things!
Li Lan's eyelids were sore from watching this.
Even when she gave birth to a baby, her parents only sent her two chickens, a basket of eggs and a few pounds of brown sugar.
Su Tang hasn't given birth yet, but the Su family has chickens, eggs, cured meat, cured fish, and various vegetables, fruits... At a rough glance, it's enough to eat for at least half a month!
I have to admit that Su Tang is really lucky.
Born in the Su family, she was loved by everyone. Marrying the third child, she was also held in the palm of the hand.
Alas, same person but different fate!
Mu Jingyuan also looked at it with envy - the Li family would never give things so generously.
"What are you looking at?" Li Lan glared at her husband unhappily.
"I didn't see it." Mu Jingyuan immediately lowered his head like a cowardly quail.
"Are you wondering why the Li family doesn't give you so much if the Su family can?" Li Lan asked.
How could Mu Jingyuan dare to admit it? He shook his head vigorously: "No."
"Hmph! There aren't many families like the Su family, but there are even fewer that are as tolerant as the Li family! What will be the consequences if your story happens to the third brother?" Li Lan sneered.
Mu Jingyuan: ...
With how much the Su family loves Su Tang, everyone in the family, young and old, would skin the third child alive!
After packing up, it was dark.
Everyone went back to their rooms to sleep, preparing to return to the provincial capital early the next morning.
Not long after I rested, someone knocked on the door.
"Bang, bang, bang! Second, third!"
It was Pan Yongsheng from the village. He didn't have much contact with the Mu family. He came to shout in the middle of the night, so something must have happened.
Mu Jingyun and Mu Jingzhou quickly put on their clothes and went out to open the door: "Yongsheng, is there anything wrong?"
"My wife is about to give birth, but she can't do it in the clinic, so she has to go to the county hospital. Second and third brothers, you have cars at home. Cars are fast, so please help me take my wife to the county town." Pan Yongsheng was sweating and looked anxious.
Mu Jingzhou responded without hesitation: "Okay, you wait."
After I agreed, I remembered that it was my second sister-in-law who could drive!
My second sister-in-law has been very tired recently and has gone to bed a long time ago...
"Second brother..."
"I'll go ask."
Mu Jingyun didn't dare to act on his own and went back to the house to find Yu Miaomiao.
When Mrs. Mu heard the noise, she came out and said unhappily, "Yongsheng, you are too irrational. How can you lend your car to a woman who is having a difficult childbirth? It's unlucky."
"Auntie, I know it's unlucky to borrow a car for this kind of thing, but I really have no other choice. Please help me. I will come to your house to set off firecrackers according to the rules tomorrow." Pan Yongsheng said.
“No! Do you know how much it costs to buy this small car to go to the county town? It’s too expensive…” Old Mrs. Mu still didn’t want to help.
"How expensive?" Pan Yongsheng lacked confidence.
He had never ridden in a car before and had heard that it was very expensive. He didn't dare to say that he would pay for the gas - he was afraid that he couldn't afford it!
"We spent 18 yuan on gas today!" said Mrs. Mu.
Eighteen...
It is indeed expensive.
But for the sake of his wife and children, Pan Yongsheng gritted his teeth and said, "I'll pay!"
Old Mrs. Mu’s eyes lit up.
Today she had a rough understanding and found out that it was not that she had to fill up the gas tank with 18 yuan just to go to the county town, but that she had to go to the county town twice after coming down from the provincial capital to spend that much gas.
Collecting ten dollars from Pan Yongsheng tonight will reimburse the gas money for my sons to go back to the provincial capital tomorrow.
Haha, now I can help!
"Mom!" Mu Jingzhou warned, "Yongsheng, don't listen to my mother's nonsense. It won't take that much. The main thing is that only my second sister-in-law can drive. She has been very tired these days, so we have to wait."
In this case, Pan Yongsheng could only wait.
He and the Mu family were from the same village, but he was not familiar with Yu Miaomiao at all. They had never even spoken to each other!
Also, there are differences between men and women, so it's really not appropriate to go to someone's door to beg.
Can Yu Miaomiao help him?
Pan Yongsheng had no idea what was going on and kept rubbing his hands.
"Go, go, go, hurry up!" Yu Miaomiao came out of the house with the car keys, putting on her coat as she walked.
Mu Jingyun followed closely behind: "Yongsheng, you can go now."
"Thank you, thank you!"
Pan Yongsheng was so excited that he almost knelt down in front of Yu Miaomiao.
He thought that his second son's wife was not easy to get along with and would not agree to help.
He even wanted to cry and kneel down - he could only be willing to help and do whatever he was asked to do.
Unexpectedly, he came to drive without saying anything.
"Yongsheng, get in the car." Mu Jingyun opened the car door and waited for Pan Yongsheng to get in before closing it.
Old Lady Mu said awkwardly: "Xiao Yu, drive slower and be careful!"
Pan Yongsheng felt guilty again after hearing this: the country roads were dark at night, and you had to use a flashlight to walk or ride a bike. It would be inconvenient to drive, right?
"Mom, we are from the same village, please don't cause trouble for others." Mu Jingzhou said unhappily.
Old Lady Mu said confidently: "Is it wrong for me to care about your second sister-in-law?"
"You said this on purpose for Yongsheng to hear, hoping to receive more thank-you gifts tomorrow." Mu Jingzhou knew his mother too well. "Yongsheng's family is having a hard time, so you are not allowed to accept any gifts from him tomorrow."
"That won't do! We still have to follow the rules. Not only do we have to give you candy and eggs, we also have to set off firecrackers." Old Mrs. Mu said with a stern face, "Mom is doing this for your own good!"
Mu Jingzhou shook his head: "Okay! Second sister-in-law helped, everything I received belongs to her."
Mrs. Mu: …
Su Tang had fallen asleep in the room and was woken up again.
She sat quietly on the bed, and when Mu Jingzhou came back, she threw herself into his arms: "Third brother."
"What's wrong? Are you scared?" Mu Jingzhou suddenly became nervous, "Do you want to go to the hospital? I'll go after my second sister-in-law..."
"No." Su Tang hugged him tightly, "Third brother, you don't have to be nervous."
"and you……"
"You rashly agreed to help tonight. Did you think of me and the baby?"
Mu Jingzhou's heart tightened and he hugged Su Tang without saying a word.
Yes, he thought of his wife and children.
If one day his wife and children encounter difficulties and urgently need help, he hopes someone will come forward.
Of course, he must take good care of Su Tang until she gives birth.
But Pan Yongsheng's predicament tonight made him feel inexplicably depressed. It seemed that there were times when he could not protect his wife and children.
