Song Tingzhi came back early today. He came back only after finishing all the work in the shop. He also brought back two old ducks from the town.
Xu Sanniang insisted on waiting until the Chinese New Year to eat the duck at home, but Song Youning secretly told Song Tingzhi that she wanted to eat duck soup, and Jiang Cheng also wanted to eat it. Naturally, Song Tingzhi loved them and would not agree to their request.
After the duck soup was cooked, each family member had a bowl and finished it in a short while. While drinking, Xu Sanniang complained about Song Tingzhi's wasteful spending, but she only said a few words.
During the few days Jiang Cheng was at home, he would take Xiao Jin out for a walk in the evening when the weather was neither too cold nor too hot.
Song Youjin is like a smaller version of Song Tingzhi. Anyone with a discerning eye can tell whose child it is! Those who said Jiang Cheng gave birth to a boy stopped talking the day Song Youjin was born. Now that they see how good-looking Song Youjin is, they are all jealous!
Xu Sanniang was also proud to be walking beside her!
One night, someone knocked on the door of Mrs. Qian's house. Mrs. Qian was sleeping soundly when she was suddenly disturbed. She went to open the door angrily, only to find that it was her daughter who came back with her granddaughter.
When Mrs. Qian saw that it was the mother and daughter, she quickly asked them to keep their voices down. She glanced at Zhang Xiaobao's room and saw that there was no movement inside, so she let them in.
Two years ago, Mrs. Qian found a girl for Zhang Xiaobao. At first, Mrs. Qian thought that the girl was soft-hearted and would be easy to control after marriage, so she let Zhang Xiaobao marry her.
At first, Mrs. Qian acted like a mother-in-law for a few days, but within two days, the girl showed her true face. She was so fierce and aggressive that she completely controlled Mrs. Qian and Zhang Xiaobao!
At first, Mrs. Qian threatened to divorce her, but her daughter-in-law was not afraid at all. The two fought for a long time before Mrs. Qian gave in and called a truce.
Originally, Zhang Ermei's sister-in-law didn't like Zhang Ermei to go back to her parents' home all the time. Mrs. Qian had no choice but to let Zhang Ermei come at night. In this way, when her daughter-in-law saw Zhang Ermei in the morning, although she was unhappy, she could still pretend to be unhappy!
Now she was pregnant with Zhang Xiaobao's child. Mrs. Qian was counting on her to carry on the Zhang family line and give birth to a big fat boy! Naturally, she would do whatever she wanted!
"Why are you back?" Mrs. Qian brought Zhang Ermei into her room and asked in a low voice.
"Mom, don't ask anymore. Let Anmei and I stay here for a few days. You will know why after a few days!" Zhang Ermei didn't say much to Mrs. Qian. Anmei had already fallen asleep. Zhang Ermei had held her for a long time. Now her hands were sore, so she put her on the bed!
"Okay, but Ah Xiang is already pregnant. If she does anything amiss, you'll have to be patient! I've waited so long for Ah Xiang to get pregnant, so we can't shock her!"
On one side is her son and daughter-in-law, and on the other side is her daughter and granddaughter. Both sides of her hands are flesh and blood. Mrs. Qian feels sorry for her daughter, but she is also thinking about her future precious grandson, so she had to say this.
"Don't worry, mother, I will pay attention!" His temper when he was young has changed a lot since Zhang Ermei's son was stolen. Now he knows what Mrs. Qian is thinking and naturally will not contradict her.
Zhang Ermei slept in Qian Po's room tonight. When she woke up the next day, Ah Xiang just came out of the room to bask in the sun and saw an uninvited guest.
"Hmph!" Ah Xiang felt unhappy when she saw Zhang Ermei and her burden, and snorted coldly.
Zhang Ermei walked up to her as if she hadn't heard anything and said in a gentle voice, "Ah Xiang, I'm going to stay home for a few more days this time. It's just that Anmei and I are living here for a while, and the money is not much, but it's my token of appreciation!"
Zhang Ermei took out a purse from her bosom and put it in Ah Xiang's hand. Ah Xiang weighed it and thought it was of decent weight, so the matter was over.
Originally, there was no need for the girl to do this when she returned to her parents' home, but Zhang Ermei wanted Anmei to live more comfortably here and to prevent Ah Xiang from saying anything bad to Anmei when she was not paying attention.
After becoming a mother, Zhang Ermei would consider Anmei more when doing things.
On this day, when Jiang Cheng was taking the children out to play, he happened to run into Zhang Ermei and Anmei coming out. Jiang Cheng wanted to go around them a little, but Song Youning insisted on walking in that direction, and Jiang Cheng had no way to avoid them!
"Long time no see!" Jiang Cheng wanted to avoid him, but Zhang Ermei came up to him and greeted him first.
"Long time no see!" Jiang Cheng replied. It had indeed been a long time since he last saw Zhang Ermei. She seemed to have lost a lot of weight compared to the last time they met. Maybe she was tired from taking care of the children!
"Mom, this little brother is so handsome!" An Mei suddenly spoke when she saw Song Youjin in Jiang Cheng's arms.
"Yes!" Zhang Ermei didn't know what she was thinking of, so she picked up Anmei and asked her to take a closer look.
Jiang Cheng also saw Anmei. Although Zhang Ermei had lost a lot of weight, Anmei was well-fed and looked plump and pleasing to the eye!
Jiang Cheng thought of her stolen child and felt sorry for Zhang Ermei. She had almost forgotten the past. Now she had nothing to say to her because they hadn't seen each other for a long time and she didn't know what to talk about.
Jiang Cheng saw that Zhang Ermei's tone seemed to indicate that she had something to say to him, but for some reason she suddenly stopped talking. A hint of doubt flashed in Jiang Cheng's eyes.
"I just wanted to say hello to you when I met you on the road, and by the way, apologize for some things I did when I was young. I haven't found the chance all these years." Zhang Ermei said.
"It's okay. When we were young, we didn't know much. Now I see that Anmei is well taken care of. I'm sure you have put in a lot of effort." Jiang Cheng praised.
"Yes, this child is sensible and I feel sorry for her. After all, I feel a little sorry for her. It was thanks to you back then, otherwise this child would not have lived to this day."
Zhang Ermei was talking about the time when Jiang Cheng lent goat milk to Anmei, which she had always remembered.
"It's no big deal. I felt sorry for the child at the beginning." Jiang Cheng said with a smile.
Zhang Ermei didn't say anything. It was a small matter to others, but it was a big deal to her who had already lost a child!
She will always remember this kindness!
