Chapter 62: Third Update



In the evening, Feng Yu made soup for Chen Yun to drink. Chen Yun drank a bowl of it and took Zi Rui to sleep. Feng Yu was worried that she couldn't take good care of him, but Chen Yun said, "I have to take care of him. You should go to bed first. Don't ruin your health after all these years."

It was inevitable that it was a bit hectic to take care of a child alone. The child would cry and pee at night, and drink milk, but gradually Chen Yun figured out some rules. Liu Qiao fell asleep on the side, and Chen Yun knew that he was very tired recently, so she didn't call him.

In the morning, Liu Qiao took some clothes and left. After she came back, Chen Dafen came to visit her. She brought two bottles of rice wine and said with a smile, "The hospital you are staying in is really too far away. My husband won't let me go. Look what I brought. This is best boiled with the hen."

"Thank you, thank you." Chen Yun accepted the things she took.

Chen Dafen looked at Zi Rui who was sleeping soundly on the bed and took a closer look: "Oh my God, his eyelashes are too long, they are almost drooping. You have a really good child. Is the child sleeping with you now?"

"Yes, my mother-in-law originally wanted to take care of the baby with me, but she is not young anymore, so I'd better take care of the baby myself so that my mother won't have to work too hard." Chen Yun said with a smile.

But how could Chen Dafen believe that the relationship between the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law would be so good? She thought that Chen Yun was afraid that her son would not recognize her as a mother after living with her mother-in-law for a long time, so she kept him with her. She whispered, "You are right. The child is close to whoever takes care of him. You are his biological mother, so he must be close to you."

Chen Yun laughed it off. Chen Dafen talked to Chen Yun for a few words and then went next door to see Zhu Xiaofang.

There were no entertainment activities during the confinement period. I couldn't even read too much. If I wanted to watch TV, I had to turn off the sound. It was really boring. Fortunately, she bought a lot of magazines to read at home, and when she had nothing to do, she would sleep and take care of the child.

"Come, Yunyun, try this soybean pig's trotter. It's covered in a lot of oil. Don't be disgusted..."

Feng Yu brought a small bowl of soup over. Chen Yun drank a lot of it and wiped her mouth. She said in disbelief, "Mom, why do I feel hungry without doing anything?"

"Do you think it's not hard to take care of a child?" Feng Yu felt that Chen Yun was already a very sensible girl of her age.

As expected, Chen Dafen saw Zhu Xiaofang also eating pig's feet, but the child was not around. She curiously asked, "Your son is not with you?"

Zhu Xiaofang said with a little pride: "Now my mother-in-law is taking care of the child." With her mother-in-law taking care of the child, why should she work so hard? She remembered that in her previous life, she visited some mother-in-law and daughter-in-law forums, where some daughters-in-law said that their mothers-in-law did not help with the child's care so the child did not have a good confinement period, and that children do not remember anything when they are young. As long as they keep the child by their side when they grow up and then send their mother-in-law back to their hometown, the child will still only recognize her.

"I really envy you. When I was taking care of our Qiangqiang in my hometown, I had to do laundry before I was out of confinement. No one was worse off than me." Seeing Chen Dafen complaining, Zhu Xiaofang also followed suit.

Zhu Xiaofang thought that only by listening to other people's gossip and helping to analyze it can one get closer to them.

The two talked for a long time and saw Gao's mother coming over to collect the dishes. Gao's mother smiled again, and Chen Dafen was very fond of her. Although Feng Yu next door was a nice person, she was different in every way. She also raised flowers on the balcony, cooked very delicately, and spoke with a smile. She looked nice, but she made her feel distant.

It's the same with Chen Yun. She can make all kinds of dolls, keeps her house very elegant, and wears expensive-looking clothes. She looks gentle and sweet, but after spending a long time with her, I still feel a sense of distance between us.

This is what she thought and she told Zhu Xiaofang so. She used to think Zhu Xiaofang was too capable, but now she thinks that she is capable and talented, and she always talks to her and gives her advice, so they have a very close relationship.

Zhu Xiaofang felt that she was just a supporting role. Her relationship with Zhang Han was average, and there was also Xu Lijie waiting there. She was afraid that others would become like her, so she might as well be nice to Chen Dafen so that Gao Guobin, the deputy battalion commander, could be promoted to a regular position.

Anyway, it was Chen Dafen who brought up the topic, so she would have said it anyway. "Hey, I know it even if you don't say it. I think it must be very difficult for Chen Yun to marry into a family like the Liu family, so she is kind to her mother-in-law. After all, she is the daughter-in-law of a high-ranking official, so it is normal for her to keep a distance from us."

"You didn't know that I had a fight with my husband before, but she encouraged me to divorce him. Tell me what she was thinking."

Zhu Xiaofang didn't know what happened before, so when she heard Chen Dafen say this, she was surprised: "It's just a quarrel between husband and wife, why would I encourage you to divorce?"

Chen Dafen sneered: "I don't know what she was up to. I've always felt that she's not a good person. Also, she said nice things, but later her husband Liu Qiao lent money to my husband. Isn't she a two-faced person?"

She had nothing good to say about Xu Lijie. After all, when the time came, she would need Xu Lijie, who was knowledgeable about the subject, to take her to cram school and talent classes, and Xu Lijie only said so after Chen Yun had told her to.

The key is that Xu Lijie is now dating Zhang Han. A few days ago, the two of them took their children to Longcheng to buy clothes in Zhang Han's car. By then, when Zhang Han becomes the wife of the group leader, maybe Xu Lijie's husband will be promoted.

Zhu Xiaofang also said: "In the future, you should tell her less about family matters. She looks simple on the outside, but she is actually very cunning and calculating."

"Yeah, I know. Maybe she envies you. Don't you know that she still sleeps with her child? She is not as blessed as you, with your mother-in-law helping you take care of the child. So you are lucky. Besides, we are from the same battalion after all. I am always closer to her than to her." Chen Dafen's husband is very tight-lipped, but he will occasionally reveal a little. For example, the Fifth Battalion where Liu Qiao is located has been ranked first in all recent evaluations. It used to be the first in the Second Battalion, and now the Fifth Battalion is in its heyday. Although the commander of the Fifth Battalion may not necessarily become the deputy regiment commander, what if he does?

**

How would Chen Yun, who was at home, know all this? Anyway, ever since she knew that her husband Liu Qiao was the kind of person who valued his reputation, she would never try to curry favor with him like Xu Lijie and the others. Besides, if everyone in this family building remained the same as when she first came here, it would be fine for everyone to just help each other.

But the longer she lives here, the more she feels that the families here are very nice, better than the relationships with her previous colleagues, but for people who live here, every little thing is known to everyone, and it is hard not to be talked about by others, so she has to be more strict with herself.

The baby made noise for a while at night and then fell asleep, and Chen Yun followed suit.
