"Do I need you to teach me this? I'm in charge of the family's money and food. Not to mention your brother and sister-in-law, even your father doesn't know how much money and food the family has, let alone outsiders."
"Mom, I don't know yours yet. You've always been very cautious. I'm just giving you a few instructions in vain."
Li Miaomiao's words made He Guixiang smile.
"You just love to worry. I'm safe here, you just need to take care of your own little family and keep Guoan under control. Guoan is becoming more and more successful now, and he's handsome. There are many women eyeing him, so don't be stupid."
"Mom, I get it. Don't worry about it. Guoan is not that kind of person."
"Also, these are prepared for the baby. My sister-in-law is about to give birth, and I may not be able to make it back by then. These are prepared for the baby."
Li Miaomiao took out another large bag from her backpack, which contained several bags of milk powder, brown sugar and several pieces of cotton cloth.
She also prepared the same things for the fourth branch of her husband's family, taking into account what would happen later, especially in the second half of the year, when the drought would cause a complete loss of harvest, and there would be no water or food to eat, not to mention things like milk powder and brown sugar, which were very precious.
"You, since your sister-in-law got pregnant, you have prepared so many things for her."
"My sister-in-law has always been good to me. Now that I have the ability, I want to repay her a little."
After hearing what Li Miaomiao said, He Guixiang put the things away and said, "You think so, but you didn't give much to your sisters-in-law when they were pregnant. Although I know your situation is different now, your sisters-in-law may not understand. I will give the things to your eldest sister-in-law quietly."
Li Miaomiao nodded when she heard this. It was her fault for not thinking it through.
The situation at her mother's side is different from that at her husband's side. Her eldest sister-in-law treats her very well, and her other brothers and sisters-in-law are also good to her. It is really not worth it to hurt the relationship because of this.
"Mom, you're really thoughtful. I'll leave this matter to you. It's getting late, so I'll go back first."
"It's so hard to come back, why are you leaving now? I'm going to cook now, and I'll go back after dinner."
"No, my parents-in-law are going to the provincial capital with us this time, and there are many things to pack at home."
"Tsk, your parents-in-law followed you to the provincial capital too. Why? Why are you so stupid? When the family was divided, it was agreed that each party would share the burden. Why is it falling on you now?"
He Guixiang exploded when she heard this. She also admitted that her parents-in-law were good to her daughter, but one thing is for sure, this is not bullying and it makes her daughter suffer. This is definitely not allowed.
Li Miaomiao remembered that she had forgotten to explain this matter to her parents, so she told them the reason.
"My parents-in-law originally didn't want to move to the provincial capital. They wanted to stay in the village to earn money, but Pei Guoan and I were busy and had no time to take care of the children. Besides, there were some other things going on, so they agreed to help me."
He Guixiang was speechless at this point: "You are all busy now. It's not right for an elder to think more about the children. I think Guoan is the only one who can be trusted. If they are sensible people, they should help you more."
This is clearly double standards, Li Miaomiao: ...
"Mom, I'll go back first. If there's anything happening at home, please let me know."
"Okay, everything is fine at home, don't worry. Wait a minute, I've saved up some mountain products for you these days. You need to buy everything in the city, so the more you save, the better."
Li Miaomiao originally wanted to say no, but after thinking about it, she decided not to refuse. If she didn't accept it, He Guixiang would probably feel uneasy.
However, Li Miaomiao did not take as much of the mountain products that He Guixiang had picked out, so she picked and chose and took a small half.
"These are enough. You can keep the rest at home. You can't let me take everything away. We have to make a living at home."
"It's not easy to eat these things at home. Your brother and I will go to the mountains to get some and bring them back. You can take them all with you."
How could it be so easy? There were only so many wild products in the mountains, and everyone was scrambling to get them. It wasn't her and Pei Guoan. Pei Guoan was the male protagonist, so he naturally had opportunities and luck, and he also had the ability, so it was easy for him to get mountain products. It was even easier for her, so she could just buy them directly in the system mall. It would take a lot of effort for her parents' family to collect so many mountain products.
"You really don't need so much. My parents-in-law prepared a lot for us. The car is full of things. These are enough. How can I be polite to you?"
He Guixiang didn't insist after hearing what Li Miaomiao said. The old couple watched Li Miaomiao leave, feeling a little sad.
Now that my daughter has moved to the city, it is becoming increasingly difficult for her to come back.
"Don't sigh anymore. If you miss your daughter, go to the city when you're not busy with farming. Didn't your daughter just ask us to stay in the city for a while? Anyway, there are many buses going to the provincial capital now, so it's convenient."
"That's true. When I have time, I'll go to the provincial capital to take a look. Otherwise, I'm always a little worried."
Having said that, He Guixiang was no longer sad. She had already started thinking about what to bring for her daughter next time she went to the city. Things don't come in a flash; they have to be accumulated slowly over time.
When Li Miaomiao was about to get home, she bought a lot of mountain products from the system mall and put them all in the big backpack she was carrying, filling it up.
"Miaomiao, you're back. Wow, why are there so many things? I guess my in-laws brought you all the mountain products from home."
Old Mrs. Pei knew long ago that her in-laws were very kind to her daughter-in-law and never came back empty-handed. If there were some things that Old Mrs. Pei would have been too lazy to say in the past, the relationship between the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law would be different now.
"Miao Miao, I know how your in-laws feel about you, but please don't take things from your parents' home like this in the future. After all, you're married now. I know your in-laws care about you, but they also have to consider your brother and sister-in-law's feelings. Don't let this cause discord in the family."
"Mom, I understand what you said, but you also know my mom's temper. If I don't take it, she will force it into my mouth."
Mrs. Pei thought about it and agreed: "I do know your in-laws' temperament. This is also a kind gesture from your in-laws. When you go back to your parents' home in the future, you can bring more things with you. Your brother and sister-in-law will feel better when they see it."
The news that the old couple of the Pei family were going to the provincial capital with their eldest son's family spread throughout the village. Some people were envious, while others spoke sourly.
Accountant Wu came over specially after hearing about this.
"Guoan's wife, have you really thought it through? If so, the burden on you and Guoan will be heavy. Your parents-in-law are still able to work and earn money at home, so there's no need for you to support them."
"My parents-in-law think the same thing. They don't want to go to the provincial capital, but Guoan and I are both busy, and someone has to take care of the child. There are also other considerations."
"So that's how it is. You and Guoan are both promising. I don't need to worry about you."
Accountant Wu said this and then talked about the soap factory: "Fortunately, I listened to you and quit the soap factory."
Li Miaomiao hadn't heard about the situation at the soap factory for a long time. Hearing this, he raised his eyebrows.
