Chapter 353: Too Much
After a moment's silence, Lin Siqiao finally accepted it.
Before, she had always considered issues from her own perspective, but she forgot that as parents, they also have their own emotional concerns when it comes to their children starting a family.
"Thank you, Mom."
Mother Lu breathed a sigh of relief and waved her hands happily, "We are all family, why should we be polite? You have been tired all day, go upstairs and take a shower and go to bed early."
When they reached the door, Mother Lu suddenly remembered, "Oh, Qiao Qiao, tomorrow you and Chuan Er should go to the new house to take a look and see if there is anything missing. I will take half a day off tomorrow afternoon, and we will go buy it together then."
In order to save up for vacation in July, Lu's mother has switched shifts with her colleagues on weekends in the past two months, and has saved up almost ten days of vacation.
Now we are just waiting for the in-laws and sisters-in-law to come back so that we can have some fun together.
Lin Siqiao didn't live in Shanghai either. After thinking for a while, she said, "Mom, we can do it ourselves tomorrow. You don't have to ask for leave."
"That won't work."
Mother Lu smiled and explained the reason. In a few days, Qiao's grandparents and uncles would come over.
She had been worrying about the meeting gift these days, luckily Lin Siqiao and the others came back today.
"Mom doesn't know what they like either, so you can help me with some advice tomorrow."
After hearing what Lu's mother said, Lin Siqiao no longer refused. After coming out to say hello to everyone, she went upstairs with Lu Jianchuan.
As soon as the door opened, Lin Siqiao subconsciously stopped. This was her second time entering Lu Jianchuan's room.
Compared to the scene when I first came in, the room has changed a lot.
The original single bed was replaced with an extra-large double bed, and the single wardrobe became a double wardrobe, needless to say.
The key is that the curtains, bed sheets and mosquito nets are all in the style of pastoral small florals.
Lin Siqiao originally thought that when Lu's mother said to clean up, she only meant to clean up the house on Changle Road, but she didn't expect that she would clean up the old house as well.
Lu Jianchuan seemed to have gotten used to it. He didn't care how the house was messed up, as long as they were happy.
After taking a shower, Lin Siqiao opened the box given to her by Lu's mother.
When she took the box in her hand, she felt that it was too heavy and guessed that it might contain gold or something.
I didn’t expect it to be true.
I counted the large yellow croakers and found there were 20 in total, with a passbook next to them.
Lin Siqiao opened it and took a look. She could only say that if her mother-in-law didn't take action, it would be fine, but once she did, it was too domineering.
At this time, Lu Jianchuan also handed over a brown paper bag.
"What is this?" Lin Siqiao was confused.
Lu Jianchuan hugged the person over, then loosened the towel on her head, and gently rubbed her hair while talking.
"This was given to you by your grandmother when you were talking to your mother inside just now. She said that the formalities have been completed and asked you to take some time to go to the Housing Authority to change your name."
Hearing this, Lin Siqiao looked up and asked, "Let me?"
What she wanted to ask was, shouldn't we be allowed to do so?
Lu Jianchuan pecked the corner of her mouth and hummed softly.
"Grandma said that I have no share in this house. She gave it to her grandson's wife."
Lin Siqiao still didn't say anything, just looked at him silently.
Looking at his wife's confused eyes, Lu Jianchuan could only repeat Grandma Lu's words verbatim.
"Grandpa agrees with this, my parents agree, my second uncle, third uncle, and aunt all have no objection. Do you have anything else to ask now?"
Lin Siqiao shook her head. She had nothing to ask.
If there is, it's just a sigh, this is too much.
By now her hair was almost dry, and Lin Siqiao found a comfortable position to lie down. By the way, she told Lu Jianchuan that she would go out shopping with Lu's mother tomorrow afternoon.
After thinking for a while, she said that she planned to go out alone the day after tomorrow to do something.
Lu Jianchuan didn't think much about it, thinking that she was going to the Friendship Store. He said okay, hugged her and fell asleep in less than two minutes.
The next day, they got up early, had breakfast and went to Changle Road together.
Grandpa Lu and Grandma Lu had nothing to do at home, but Lin Siqiao called them out to join in the fun.
Returning to this house after more than half a year, Lin Siqiao couldn't help feeling a little emotional.
In a sense, this is where their fate began.
And in the future, this will be their common home.
The house had not changed much since Lin Siqiao left. Mother Lu only added two or three pieces of furniture as appropriate.
However, the house did add a lot of new daily necessities, such as a kettle, a mouthwash cup, an enamel basin, an enamel cup, an enamel spittoon, red bowls and chopsticks, a soap box... These things alone filled up an entire table.
There were several thin quilts on the bed in the master bedroom, made of satin and embroidered with peonies and cranes.
In the 1980s, quilt covers were usually bought for weddings, so there was no choice of color, either bright red or bright green.
After looking up and down the stairs, Lin Siqiao felt that there was nothing left to buy.
After packing up, the group rushed to the hospital.
Yesterday, Lin Siqiao and Lu's mother agreed to meet at the entrance of the alley opposite the hospital.
Seeing that the agreed time had passed and Lu's mother had not come out yet, Grandma Lu asked them to go in and ask.
That's how it is in the hospital, especially in the obstetrics and gynecology department where Lu's mother works. Occasionally, when there is an emergency, don't even think about taking leave. You have to rush to the hospital as soon as you get a phone call in the middle of the night.
The two went to the obstetrics and gynecology department. Just as they were about to find a nurse to ask, they heard Lu's mother's loud scolding in the corridor.
"Comrade, we have already told you the situation. Your wife has high bile acid levels and her water has broken for several hours."
"In this case, she must undergo surgery immediately. If she delays any further, both the adult and the child will be in danger."
Mother Lu handed over the surgery notice and said, "Please sign here."
The man didn't answer and showed hesitation on his face.
"Doctor, I think my wife is doing well. Why don't you let her give birth first? This isn't her first baby, so let's wait and see."
Mother Lu got angry and pointed at the woman who was still wailing in the ward.
"Comrade, listen carefully and look carefully. Your wife is in so much pain that she can't even stand up straight. How can she have the strength to give birth?"
The man was too guilty to look inside. At this time, a middle-aged woman in blue work clothes pulled him aside.
"Jianguo, please don't be confused. Tell me, which woman doesn't feel pain when giving birth?"
"I spent three days at home in pain when I gave birth to you, but I still gave birth to you, didn't I?"
"Your wife is really something. It's not like she hasn't given birth before, but she still has to be so hypocritical to come to the hospital. This money is enough to buy a set of clothes."
"Anyway, I don't agree with her having that surgery."
Wang Xiuzhen curled her lips and said unhappily, "Don't you think about it? If she has a cut on her belly, she won't be able to get out of bed for a month or two. Who will cook the meals, wash the clothes, and take care of the child?"
"I'm exhausted from work every day, and your dad's back isn't in good condition. We don't have the time or energy to help you look after the children."
