Chapter 65 Mother-in-law Arrives
Finally, Tang Yue took out a lot of white pure cotton fabric from the space warehouse and cut it into small pieces, ready to make diapers for the baby. People before her used old clothes to make diapers, but Tang Yue felt that she had no shortage of fabric, so she didn't want to use other people's old clothes to cut fabric to pad the baby's butt.
I cut about 200 diapers, which seemed like a lot, but when I thought about the baby, I wondered if they would be enough. I took out my sewing box and locked the edges of all the diapers one by one so that they would not get tangled when used and they looked more pleasing to the eye.
There were knocks on the door. Tang Yue quickly got up to open the door, thinking that Uncle Li should be there. As expected, Uncle Li and his family were outside, and each of them was carrying a large backpack.
"Tang Zhiqing, all the boxes are here, about 1,800 or so, please count them," said Uncle Li to Tang Yue as soon as he entered the yard.
"Okay." Tang Yue counted all the boxes that Uncle Li brought. After confirming the number, she went to the bedroom to get the money for Uncle Li. After watching him take the money and count it, and confirming that there was no problem, she prepared to say goodbye. "Tang Zhiqing, thank you, the job you gave me allows my family to earn a day's income. This is something I never dared to think of before. Thank you so much."
"Uncle Li, why are you being so polite? I just need it and you can make it. Who else should I turn to if not you? Isn't this mutually beneficial? Why thank me? It's too polite." Tang Yue really felt this way.
"Anyway, Tang Zhiqing, thank you. I'll leave first," said Uncle Li, and then he left with his sons and grandsons.
Watching them walk away, Tang Yue locked the door and returned to the bedroom. She looked at the things she had bought in the room and wanted to put some things away before her mother-in-law came. It would be difficult to hide things when her mother-in-law came.
Keep some mountain products, and put the chopped chilies and dried vegetables outside, so they can be sent via the post office later. Put away two of the three kang cabinets, take out the contents and place them beside the bed, and also take out the baby's things and put them away.
Back in Beijing, Grandma Tang Yue was also packing up her things at home, mailing the things the baby needed to her son first so he wouldn't have to carry them so tiringly.
"Old man, my daughter-in-law is almost three months old. I want to go there quickly so that she doesn't have to pack up and get too tired. She hasn't finished eating the things she sent last time, so let's mail them over. Keep the meat for her too, so that she won't have any to eat when she's pregnant." Mother Zhao had always wanted to visit her daughter-in-law, but her son asked her to go only when she was three months old. She knew the old man was afraid that her daughter-in-law would feel uncomfortable, so she agreed.
Zhao Xiao looked at her mother busying herself with packing and said, "You can also take the nutritional supplements that others gave you during the Chinese New Year. They can nourish both of you. I'm worried that she won't get enough nutrition. Don't ruin your body after giving birth. Don't forget the milk powder and bottles you bought. A baby must drink milk powder. Ask your daughters-in-law to help ask around to see if there are any extra milk powder tickets."
"Need I tell you? I've already asked several daughters-in-law to help me find a wife. They're so dedicated. They're all hoping that their younger siblings will give birth to a daughter so they can kiss and caress her." Mother Zhao talked about her daughters-in-law, thinking that they wanted to snatch her granddaughter away.
"Okay, it's up to you. I'll go to your place in a few months to help you take care of the baby. The two of you definitely can't take care of it."
After Tang Yue got up that day, she accidentally touched her belly and felt something was different. She lifted her clothes and looked at her belly, and found that it was starting to swell up a little bit. It felt hard and there was a lump inside.
This feeling is magical. Suddenly it feels real, as if I am really pregnant. The corners of my mouth unconsciously smile, and as I smile, tears flow silently. "Mom and Dad, I am living well here, and I will have relatives in the future. You must bless the baby in my daughter's belly to grow up safely."
I heard that one should walk more after pregnancy, which will be more conducive to childbirth. Tang Yue quickly got up from the kang and entered the space in an instant. She walked slowly around the space, smelling the faint floral fragrance in the air, and her mood became brighter.
Days go by faster when you are in a good mood. On this day, the door outside the yard rang again. Tang Yue hurried to open the door. When she opened the door, she saw that it was her mother-in-law who came.
"Yueyue, how's your stomach? Can you eat? Why do you feel thin?" When Zhao's mother saw her daughter-in-law, she thought she was thin. There is a kind of thinness that makes your mother feel that you are thin.
"Mom, why did you come so soon? Did you come alone? Did you have nothing on the way? Come in quickly. If I had known you were coming, I should have picked you up." Tang Yue hurriedly asked her mother-in-law to come in. She was covered in snow and wind, so she quickly asked her mother-in-law to go in and take a hot bath first, so as not to catch a cold. "Mom, the water is boiling in the pot. Go and take a bath quickly, so as not to catch a cold."
When Zhao's mother heard this, she was also worried about her daughter-in-law getting a cold. "Your father dropped me off at the train station, and I came here alone. I asked for directions along the way. Luckily, your brigade seems to be quite famous, so I can get accurate answers whenever I ask. Okay, I'll go take a bath first, and you don't have to come out, please go in, it's too cold outside."
Tang Yue sat on the kang waiting for her mother-in-law, who came out after about 20 minutes.
"Yueyue, I came here specially to pick you up this time. We will go to Shengrui together. No one is comfortable letting you go alone. I will mail the things I need to take in advance. Tell me what you need to take with you and I will pack them and mail them in advance." Mother Zhao's eyes are shining as she looks at her little daughter-in-law. She is beautiful and fertile. She likes her more and more.
"Mom, you take care of the arrangements. If possible, send it first. This way, the two of us won't be too tired when the time comes. For those that are difficult to pack, just forget about them." Tang Yue left everything to her mother-in-law and just waited for the ready-made ones.
"Okay, leave it to me. Have you ever thought about when you can go there?"
"Mom, the baby is three months old now, so we can go any day. I'll listen to you. It's too cold in the north, it should be warmer where Brother Shengrui is." Tang Yue touched the bulge on her belly, which looked as big as a five-month-old baby. To be honest, she was a little worried. Her belly was so big and she had no experience. She made some large maternity clothes in the next few days, but it was too cold here. It would be better to go to the south where adults and children would not suffer so much.
"Since you listened to me, then go early. It's too cold here. I need to buy tickets in advance." He said and was about to run outside.
Tang Yue quickly grabbed her mother-in-law and said, "Mom, you should take a rest first. You don't have to be so anxious since you just arrived."
"It's too cold here, and your belly is getting bigger and bigger. I'm really worried about you staying here. We are just two girls, and we can't call anyone if something happens. You should go to Shengrui's place quickly, at least there is a grown man at home." The more Zhao's mother thought about it, the more she felt that it was right. Her daughter-in-law's house was the only one around her, and the more she thought about it, the more unsafe it felt.
