Chapter 127 Where does the sense of superiority come from?
Zhao Chunhua took out a piece of cloth. Among many colors, she chose a green one, and then began to carefully cut it according to the size of the man's clothes in her family.
I thought to myself that since I have daughters-in-law at home, I can let them do the work that I used to do, so that I, as the mother-in-law, can have less worries.
The prepared hairpins have not yet been given to her dear daughters-in-law. She made five at a time and planned to wait for a while before giving them to her.
But she remembered the box of pearl flowers that Zhao Wenxing gave her, from which she could choose two to give to them as gifts.
Those small bead flowers are made of colorful beads. They are not big but they look very beautiful when used to decorate the bun.
Zhao Chunhua carefully screened for a while and finally selected two peach pink pearl flowers. This color was most suitable for young women, but she was not young anymore and it was not suitable for her to wear such bright colors.
Only then did Zhao Chunhua truly realize that she was no longer young.
I will be 40 years old next year. If I want to stay healthy and enjoy more years of leisure, I must take good care of myself.
While she was busy in the house, the children woke up from their nap, and the adults were busy preparing some delicious snacks for them.
Shen Mai and several other mothers had not been away from their children for such a long time, so after discussing with Tang Jianxi, they decided to come early to pick up the children.
When they came in the morning, Tiaotiao was carried by Zhao Chunhua on her back, with Xiao Shitou in her arms. Only Tangyuan, who was a little older, could walk by himself.
Now it was Chen Mai's turn to pick up the kids. He held the smaller Tiaotiao in his arms, and at the same time stretched out his other hand to hold the hand of Tangyuan, who was still walking steadily.
In fact, this is a helpless move. Although this country road is not too narrow, it is still extremely unsafe for a one-year-old child to walk alone.
Seeing his long-lost mother, Tiaotiao spoke a lot of words excitedly, mumbling non-stop. Chenmai listened without fully understanding what he said, but he only knew that the two children were having a lot of fun playing together today.
As soon as he got home, Tangyuan was eagerly looking for Tang Jianxi.
As soon as he saw his grandmother, he ran over and carefully handed her the flower-shaped toy in his hand.
"Grandma, this is beautiful."
As he spoke, his eyes were filled with anticipation, hoping that his grandmother would praise his toys.
Tiaotiao almost cried because he realized that his brother had taken his toy back, but he had forgotten to take his own, and he suddenly felt very lost.
In fact, Zhao Chunhua didn’t make that many cotton toys in total.
The one that was given to Xiao Shitou at the beginning was still stored in the warehouse.
The few small gadgets that were made later were made from the remaining scraps.
Since cotton is relatively precious and her time and energy are limited, she did not produce it in large quantities.
Faced with the sudden cry, Shen Mai was also shocked.
She didn't understand what was going on for a moment, and didn't know how to comfort the little one who was suddenly crying.
At this time, Tangyuan hugged the flower-shaped toy in his hand tightly and tried to comfort his brother, "Brother, your ball is still at grandma's house, don't worry."
He was obviously trying his best to calm Tiaotiao down.
So Zhao Chunhua simply took out several toys and let them choose for themselves.
Tangyuan chose a five-petal flower-shaped toy about the size of his palm without hesitation, while Tiaotiao picked a round ball-shaped toy.
As for Xiao Shitou, he was not very interested in those things.
On the contrary, the child simply hugged Zhao Chunhua tightly with his two little arms, as if he was more dependent on and closer to her.
This action made Zhao Chunhua laugh out loud, and she sighed that he was the smartest kid here.
"Why choose a toy? Just choose the person who makes the toy," she said jokingly.
Shen Mai could only smile helplessly as she watched all this, but she found that Tiao Tiao had already started pulling her hand and running outside - it was obvious that he couldn't wait to go back and get his own toys back.
Fortunately, dinner at home was almost ready, so he asked Tang's mother to help look after the food cooking on the stove.
Just like that, they set out again for the Zhao family after just returning.
When Tang's mother saw her grandson concentrating on playing with the flower toy in his hand, she couldn't help but walk forward, pick him up gently, and gently ask him what delicious food he had eaten and what interesting games he had played at Zhao's house.
Tang's mother has always had a special feeling in her heart. She thinks that only this place is the real Shu family, although the person currently living there is still one of the descendants of the Shu family - the widow Zhao Chunhua.
However, because she believed that the people who could truly represent the power of family inheritance should be the direct descendants of the current person in charge of the family, she did not admit from the bottom of her heart that the place where Zhao Chunhua lived was also part of the Shu family.
This mentality is actually caused by some inexplicable sense of superiority.
Although it has been proven that Zhao Chunhua now lives a more affluent and comfortable life, the fact that she is a single mother cannot be changed in any way, which makes it difficult for Tang's mother to completely let go of her complex emotions towards her daughter-in-law.
Of course, Tang's mother knew very well that she must not express these thoughts out loud.
Even when facing Tang Jianxi, she didn't reveal a single thing.
Tangyuan looked up at her, and began to talk about what they had eaten and played with today, as if he was making a report.
Although some of the words she used were not very accurate, Tang's mother still understood what she meant.
It seems that even if Zhao Chunhua is dissatisfied with Tang Jianxi, she is not the kind of person who would easily implicate others.
Tang's mother also felt more at ease. At least she no longer had to worry about whether there would be any problems in the relationship between Tang Yuan and Zhao Chunhua.
If Zhao Chunhua was really the kind of person who liked to implicate others, she would never let her grandson get too close to her.
Now that I know that the other party treats Tangyuan very well, I will naturally have more interactions with her in the future. After all, Zhao Chunhua must have some good things to provide for Tangyuan to play with or use.
Even if she doesn't have it herself, her family will provide it. In any case, Zhao Chunhua will not lack food and clothing.
This can be seen from how generous Zhao Chunhua is when buying meat and vegetables.
Thinking of this, Tang's mother suddenly felt that a life without too many constraints was quite comfortable.
However, the thought only flashed through her mind.
Mother Tang hurriedly shook her head, trying to dispel the messy thoughts in her mind.
The situation of the Tang family is completely different from that of the Shu family. If Tang's father leaves this world, their future life will definitely become more difficult.
