Chapter 99 Untitled Draft
Seeing Zhao Chengrui leave the house and go to the yard, Tang Yue felt relieved and not so shy anymore. It was really because she had experienced his shameless look last night.
When I came to my senses and looked at the babies on the bed, I wanted to hug them very much, but I was afraid that I would get used to them and then I wouldn't be able to hug them properly when the time came.
After watching for a while, Tang Yue came to the living room. There was still a basin of milk left, so she took it to the kitchen and prepared to heat it in a pot so that the baby could drink it when he woke up.
"Yueyue, go see if your dad and the others are done. It's almost time to call them for dinner." Seeing her daughter-in-law coming over, Zhao's mother asked her to go and take a look while she heated up the milk.
"Okay, I'll go take a look."
Tang Yue came to the backyard and saw that the small house for the sheep was almost ready, "Dad, Brother Shengrui, Mom said that we will prepare for dinner once it is ready."
"Coming Soon"
Tang Yue felt that her father-in-law, a retired veteran cadre, had to do these rough jobs after retirement. She felt a little sorry for him and hoped to treat them better in the future.
"Wife, what delicious food did mom make? Tell me, I seem to smell meat." Zhao Shengrui wanted to tease his wife every time he saw her.
"Mom has cooked meat and it will be ready to eat soon. Go wash your hands first."
"You go back first and tie up the sheep and I'll be back."
Tang Yue did not stay long and went straight back to the bedroom to check on the baby. The baby was sleeping so soundly that he would not even know if someone took him away. After three months, he would probably not like to sleep so much.
While eating, Zhao Shengrui saw the braised pork on the table and asked his wife directly, "Did you buy it when you went out today? You're lucky."
Tang Yue felt guilty, "Yeah, it was so hard to get a piece of such good meat."
Zhao Shengrui nodded without saying anything. Tang Yue breathed a sigh of relief, finally he stopped asking. She always felt that her excuses were untenable. After all, meat was really hard to buy now.
When getting ready to go to bed at night, Zhao Shengrui said to Tang Yue, "Be careful when you go out in the future."
Tang Yue became nervous when she heard this. She carefully observed his expression and found that he seemed to be saying it casually and had no other intentions. Only then did she relax.
"Don't worry, I will pay more attention to safety outside. Besides, you know I'm very strong, and it's not others who will suffer."
Zhao Shengrui thought about it and it seemed to be true, so he didn't say anything more.
"Brother Shengrui, our parents are here for the New Year this year and the baby is still young, so let's celebrate the New Year here." Tang Yue really didn't want to go back to Beijing for the New Year, it was too troublesome.
"We should celebrate the New Year here, but I don't know if my brother and sister-in-law will come over." Zhao Shengrui was also afraid that the baby would get sick if he ran around everywhere.
"It's too chaotic during the Chinese New Year, with eight children from three families. It's really not safe. Let's just forget about it this year and just celebrate our own lives." Tang Yue was very worried. In this era, there is no surveillance and human traffickers are even more rampant. She was really worried.
Zhao Shengrui thought about it and said, "I will talk to my parents tomorrow, and then discuss it with my brother and sister-in-law. You don't have to worry, those things will not happen."
"Is the boat I bought still parked at the beach? I really want to go out to sea for fun. If I don't go now, winter will come soon, and I won't be able to go then." Tang Yue tried hard to persuade Zhao Shengrui, just to get his approval.
"Wife, I'm worried about you going alone. I'll take you there when I'm on vacation in a while. Be good." He was afraid that his wife would have an opinion, so he quickly coaxed her.
Tang Yue knew that her mother-in-law would not let her go alone, so she nodded in agreement.
"Wife, it's very late, go to bed quickly, you must be tired after running around outside today." Zhao Shengrui held his wife in his arms and coaxed her to sleep.
When Tang Yue woke up the next day, Zhao Shengrui was gone again. Fortunately, she was used to it.
After getting up and washing up, I went next door to see my daughter. I have to say that my mother-in-law took care of her very carefully. Apart from the fragrance of milk, there was no other strange smell.
"Mom, is there any work for me to do today? Why don't I go cut some grass to feed the sheep? I'm free anyway."
"No need for you. Your dad went to cut grass a long time ago and came back. He cut a lot on purpose, dried it and kept it until winter, and will use it when there is no fresh grass. You can go and play if you have nothing to do." Father Zhao treated the sheep, the food for his grandchildren, with special care.
"Mom, why are you so nice? You don't have to help me with the work, and you help me take care of the baby. I must have been blessed for several lifetimes to meet such a good mother-in-law like you." Tang Yue thought her mother-in-law was so nice.
When Zhao's mother heard her daughter-in-law praising her like that, she was very happy. The corners of her mouth kept rising, and she tried hard to restrain herself from laughing. "Hey, what's the good of that? While I can still move, I'll help you as much as I can. I raised your brothers and sisters-in-law's children, and now it's your and my turn, and I've helped you raise them. We can't be partial to one and neglect the other. What's more, you are still young and don't know how to take care of a child. It's okay for us to do more."
"Mom, there's nothing you should do. Helping us is a favor, and not helping is also my duty. You're so kind, brother Shengrui and I will remember it, and we and our kids will be filial to you and dad in the future." Tang Yue said it sincerely. It was her luck to meet such good parents-in-law.
"You are all good kids. Your father and I are not worried. You haven't had breakfast yet. Go and have it. It's being warmed in the pot."
Tang Yue also felt that she had been a little pretentious just now and was very embarrassed. Since her mother-in-law had changed the subject, she followed her lead and said, "Then I'll go have breakfast."
After breakfast, I couldn't find anything to do. The baby's diapers had already been washed and hung out to dry. I didn't want to go for a walk on the nearby mountain to see if there was anything edible to bring back.
"Mom, I'm going to take a walk on the mountain nearby. If Zhongyou doesn't come back for dinner, you don't have to wait for me." Tang Yue said hello, picked up the backpack and set off.
Tang Yue walked up the mountain from the path beside the house. Not long after she got up the mountain, she saw some milk fruit trees. Unfortunately, there were only some green fruits left, and none of the ripe black fruits were seen. Occasionally, one or two red fruits could be seen, but they might have been picked by the children. After all, it was a rare delicacy for them.
I searched for a long time in the mountains, but couldn't find any ripe fruit. I was unwilling to give up, so I dug up a few wild fruit trees and brought them into the space, thinking that I would be able to eat them soon.
Tang Yue searched for a long time but couldn't find it. She didn't plan to waste time on the mountain. She turned directly to the beach at the intersection ahead, ready to catch some seafood. There would always be something to gain at the beach.
