Chapter 526: Showing Goodwill
The two chatted enthusiastically.
The neighborhood lady came to ask about what happened last night.
Ying Sisi remained silent, and the old lady said directly, "That woman has mental problems and has been sent to a mental hospital. Do you believe what she says? Sisi's biological father is not her father. Why doesn't her father say it himself?"
The neighboring lady smiled awkwardly, "I heard that girl swear so confidently. Plus, when Sisi gave birth, her parents didn't come to congratulate her, so I thought it was real."
"Her father was transferred to the countryside. How can he get back so easily? Her mother is not Sisi's biological mother. How can she be good to Sisi?" The old lady refuted one by one.
Aunt Ying was embarrassed. In order to ease the atmosphere, she turned her attention to Ying Sisi and praised her for her good complexion and full of energy after the confinement period.
Ying Sisi replied perfunctorily, using the excuse of needing to rest as a subtle way of ordering them to leave.
The aunt had to leave.
The old lady stood at the window, looking at the other person's back, and said worriedly: "Once that girl from the Li family makes a fuss, I don't know what the neighbors will say about you in the future." What's more, what the girl Li said actually matched her dream in some ways.
Could it be that her dream really happened?
The storm gradually subsided and life returned to its previous peace.
Soon, Ying Sisi finished her confinement and returned to her study unit.
A month and a half later.
Opening the book again, I feel at ease and peaceful.
Huang Yanqiu looked her up and down. "The teacher said you should go home and give birth, but you don't look like you've given birth at all. My sister gained a lot of weight during her confinement, and her hairline receded."
Miao Ling said, "The driver's license test is in a week. She might have gone back home to study for the test content in advance, just waiting for the test. We'll see, she'll definitely come in first this time."
Ying Sisi's eyebrows twitched: "So in your eyes, I'm so powerful."
Miao Ling: "I mean you took the backdoor, and going home to give birth was just an excuse."
Ying Sisi: "I just came out of confinement, so I won't bother with you. But if you throw dirty water on me again next time, I will definitely beat you up."
Miao Ling didn't dare to interrupt again.
Huang Yanqiu said, "Your confinement lasted nearly fifty days."
"It's been forty days. I went shopping and had fun a few days before coming to work." Ying Sisi took out a photo of the three of them and said, "We took it on the day of the full moon banquet."
Huang Yanqiu sticks her head out, in the photo.
The handsome man was holding the sleeping child, and Ying Sisi moved slightly closer to the two of them.
The scene is harmonious and warm. "Your child is so fat, is it a boy or a girl?"
Ying Sisi: "Girl, didn't you see the little bow on her hat?"
"Now I see, if you come out to study, who will take care of you at home?"
Ying Sisi answered every question: "There are many people taking care of her, my grandmother, me... um, my father. My mother-in-law and father-in-law." After she was discharged from the confinement period, her mother-in-law applied for early retirement.
In ten days, I will spend seven or eight days taking care of the children with the old lady, and the rest of the time I will go to Lu Yuechun to visit other children.
The old lady originally planned to return to her hometown after she was out of confinement. Perhaps she had developed feelings for the child after having more contact with her, so she has not mentioned returning to her hometown recently.
Uncle Shen and father-in-law will help take care of it whenever they are free.
She usually has no say in the matter.
"Your daughter is so lucky. My sister gave birth to two daughters, and she raised them all by herself. Her parents-in-law only cared about their youngest son's grandson."
Ying Sisi felt embarrassed to continue showing off after hearing this, and comforted her, "Be tough on yourself. Don't worry about your parents-in-law if they get sick in the future."
"Come on, these selfish old people only trouble their children who they usually look down upon." Huang Yanqiu complained for her sister: "My sister has been so pitiful that she has neglected her original job for her two children. Now that her children are grown up, it is harder than climbing to heaven for her to return to her job. Now she has to spend some money depending on my brother-in-law's mood."
Ying Sisi had an idea: "Does your sister know how to sew? If so, I can find her a job at a garment factory. She'll start at 8 am and finish at 5 pm. 110 yuan a month."
Huang Yanqiu was excited: "You must be joking. Where did you find out about this job?"
"I know the factory manager. They're expanding production and are short of staff." Ying Sisi said, "Ask your sister if she's free to give it a try. Give me a doctor I've confirmed, and I'll write her a letter of recommendation. Have her take it to the factory manager, a man named Liu. He'll make the arrangements. If she does well, she can stay."
"Thank you so much." Huang Yanqiu was extremely grateful. "I didn't expect you actually knew the factory director."
Ying Sisi smiled faintly: "You're welcome."
Miao Ling rolled his eyes at her and said she was just showing off.
After the class, Ying Sisi rode her bike home. When she passed by the gate of Zhu Qingan's primary school, she bought two bags of pastries and went into the school to see her child.
The first grade is in the row at the entrance.
She came to the classroom door and looked into the classroom through the window.
The child is small, so the table and chairs are much lower than others.
Sitting next to the podium and sleeping on the table.
She waited outside for nearly half an hour.
The child woke up and stretched, facing outside. She immediately noticed Ying Sisi and said with a smile, "Mom!" She got down from the stool and trotted outside: "How did you find time to come and see me?"
"I missed you." Ying Sisi said, "The rice cakes you loved."
The child's eyes widened in shock: "There are so many! Can I share some with my classmates?"
"sure."
After receiving a positive response, the child took the cake, opened it and offered it to his classmates.
She took two pieces and returned again: "Mom, didn't we take the test yesterday? I got 100 points in Chinese and math, and the teacher praised my good handwriting."
Ying Sisi was very proud of it: "How amazing! I knew that our Qing'an is the smartest."
"If I don't do well in the final exam, will you criticize me?" the child asked worriedly.
"Of course not, just try your best." Ying Sisi doesn't have high expectations for her children.
"What if my grandparents criticize me?"
Ying Sisi reached out and scratched the child's nose, saying for a long time that she was afraid of her in-laws. "If they say anything about you, ask them how your uncle's sister did in the exam." The third child in Lu Yuechun's family was a few months younger than Zhu Qing'an.
When Zhu Qing'an signed up for first grade, Lu Yuechun refused to give up and signed up for the third child as well.
After studying for a week, the school persuaded me to go back to preschool for exercise.
The reason is that the child cannot control his desire to play in class, runs around and affects other students.
"Grandma said we shouldn't compare ourselves with others."
Ying Sisi: "When studying, you can boldly compare yourself with others."
The child nodded, not quite understanding. She finished the cake in her hand and clapped her hands: "Mom, you go back. I'm going to the bathroom. I have to get ready for class later."
"Okay." Ying Sisi waved goodbye to the child and walked out of the school.
Return to the courtyard.
From a distance, I could hear the voice of the child's mother-in-law teasing the child.
The next second, Lu Yuechun's voice echoed in her ears, and her heart tightened.
This is the second time Lu Yuechun has come back since the baby’s full moon banquet. Now he comes here frequently. Doesn’t he want to move back?
She wouldn't allow it.
It was unknown when Qin Yanci would come back. During the time she was in confinement, he won the first place in the competition as expected and led the team to prepare for the competition abroad. He became even busier and had not been home for half a month.
I had originally planned to visit him today, but then I decided not to.
Learning is important.
Who knew Lu Yuechun would come to the door with such a flattering attitude.
When I walked into the room and saw the old lady and Aunt Ma were there, I felt a little more at ease.
"Sisi is back." Lu Yuechun took the initiative to show her goodwill: "The child is looking more and more like you."
Ying Sisi responded indifferently: "I gave birth to him. If he doesn't look like me, who else does he look like?"
"A daughter takes after her father. You and his grandfather carved him in the same appearance. I thought the child would look like Yan Ci." Lu Yuechun said with a smile.
If anyone else had said this, Ying Sisi wouldn't have thought much about it. But when Lu Yuechun said it, it took on a different meaning. A daughter takes after her father. What if she doesn't? Isn't she a biological child? She remained silent, waiting for her mother-in-law to speak.
As she expected, Mother Qin said, "How does she look like Si Si? Look at her big eyes, her nose, her mouth, her ears, her hair, her tiny fingernails, her tiny feet—everything is exactly like our Yan Ci when he was little. It's the fourth child who doesn't look like Xiao Jin. You're not as good at giving birth as Si Si."
Lu Yuechun: “.”
Mother Qin added, "Chichi, grow up quickly. Study hard like your father and you will have a bright future. Don't be like your mother, running around all day."
Ying Sisi: "If I don't run away, how can I rely on Aci's allowance to spend my money? Can you keep your little pension money? I will endure it because you are doing your best to take care of the children.
"Sisi, will you get your driver's license soon? I guess you'll be going out more often in the future." Lu Yuechun said, "I guess you won't be able to take care of the children either."
Ying Sisi: "I'm not going out of town. I'm just doing transportation in the city. What can I not take care of?"
Lu Yuechun added: "Drivers are exposed to the wind and sun every day. Can you bear it? Your skin will become darker. I got darker some time ago, and Qin Jin says I'm dark every day. Alas." She hinted that Qin Yanci would be like Qin Jin, disliking his wife's appearance.
The old lady said, "For the sake of living, there is nothing Hei can do. Si Si is not as lucky as you. You don't have to worry about expenses even if you don't work." She implied that Qin's father and mother were secretly subsidizing them.
Mother Qin was confused and didn't understand the old lady's words, but she agreed that Lu Yuechun enjoyed a good life. "You really are living a much better life than Sisi. Sisi was still studying even though she was about to give birth, but you started taking care of your pregnancy as soon as you got pregnant. Sisi, you have a driver's license test in a few days. Are you confident you'll pass it?"
"It's about the same." Ying Sisi neither confirmed nor denied.
To Lu Yuechun, it sounded like a lack of confidence, and the unhappiness caused by Qin's mother's arrangement just now dissipated a lot.
At this time, the child in her arms fell asleep, and she was ready to put him in the crib.
The old lady stopped him: "Sister Si Si, there is a bed over there, you can put him on the bed to sleep. Chi Chi is small and can't move. Your baby can walk and crawl, so it would be very dangerous for Chi Chi."
"The child is sleeping well, it's okay." Lu Yuechun said.
Ying Sisi said directly: "Go back to your room and sleep."
"Mom, look at Sisi, how stingy she is." Lu Yuechun said angrily.
Qin's mother was not willing to give in: "It's not like you don't have a room." If she agreed, what would happen if Yan Ci found out?
