Yun Muye picked up the phone and heard Li Yuling's excited voice on the other end.
"Son, I heard from your sister that you and Xiao Tangyuan's mother have reconciled. Is that true?"
"Yes." Yun Muye looked at Gu Zhinian, his deep eyes full of pampering and indulgence.
"When can you bring her home? Your dad and I want to meet her."
"Mom, I'll take her back when I have time."
"Son, can I have a word with her?"
"Next time, she's coaxing the child."
Li Lingyu was a little disappointed.
"Okay then! Bring her home early. Mom will prepare a big red envelope for her and a small red envelope for Xiao Tangyuan. Both mother and child will get red envelopes."
"OK."
Yun Muye hung up the phone, and Gu Zhinian breathed a sigh of relief. Just now, she was really afraid that Yun Muye would let her answer the phone.
After Li Yuling hung up the phone on the other end, the smile on her face never faded. Her daughter-in-law Song Panpan came down from upstairs, wearing thick pajamas and holding her almost two-month-old daughter in her arms.
"Mom, the baby is hungry. Ask the nanny to make her some milk powder."
Li Yuling frowned, "Panpan, the baby is still young and has a delicate stomach. Let her drink some of your breast milk, and then you can feed her formula after six months."
Song Panpan pouted unhappily.
"No! My breasts will look ugly after feeding the baby. Besides, milk powder is just as nutritious. Why do you insist on staring at my milk? I plan to wean her. During this time, Mom will watch over her. When my milk comes back, I can hold her again."
"What!" Li Yuling took the child angrily and patted him distressedly.
"My poor granddaughter, she can't even drink her mother's milk. How could there be such a cruel mother!"
Song Panpan was drinking water when she heard this. She was so angry that she threw the cup to the ground. With a "bang", the baby's hands trembled with fear and started crying loudly. Li Yuling coaxed the baby distressedly and patted him while walking.
"What are you doing! You scared the child."
Song Panpan yelled in grievance,
"Mom, what did you just say? How could I be a cruel mother? Did I starve her or freeze her? What's wrong with her drinking milk powder? There are so many children drinking milk powder in the world. I am the only one who is cruel. I fought hard to give birth to a white and chubby girl for your family, and I want to treat myself like a cow to feed her. You don't treat me as a human being!"
Li Yuling was stunned.
"What are you saying? When did our family stop treating you like a human being? Ever since you became pregnant, I hired a nanny to take care of you. After you gave birth, I came back to take care of you during the confinement period. I cooked whatever you wanted to eat. The whole family practically treated you like an ancestor.
Asking you to feed the baby means I don't treat you as a human being. I'm doing this for the baby's own good. No matter how good the milk powder is, it can't compare to mother's milk! You really make me so angry! I serve you every day, and you still make mistakes!
"Ahhhhh..." Song Panpan screamed like a madman,
"You're biased towards boys, and you're reluctant to buy milk powder for your granddaughter. You like little glutinous rice balls, but not my daughter. Woo woo woo woo... Why is my life so miserable? My mother-in-law bullies me right after I give birth to a child!"
Li Yuling was so angry that she couldn't breathe. She felt very aggrieved. She was old and had to serve her young daughter-in-law and granddaughter every day, but she was still pointed at and scolded by the younger generation.
"You... stop accusing me. When did I ever favor boys over girls? Ever since you gave birth to little girl, I've been taking care of her wholeheartedly. It was you who had a problem with having a daughter, and you refused to let the child have a single sip of milk!"
The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law were arguing with each other. The nanny in the kitchen was afraid that something might happen, so she called the male owner. After receiving the call, Yun Jianguo and Yun Langqian, father and son, hurried home.
At the door of their home, the father and son met, Yun Jianguo got out of the car,
"The nanny said your mother and your wife had a quarrel."
Yun Langqian was extremely anxious. "I just received a call. I don't know what's going on."
Yun Jianguo strode into the house, and Yun Langqian followed behind.
"Come on, come on, come inside. Your mother is old, why is she arguing with a young person?"
Before the father and son entered the house, they heard the crying of a woman and a child coming from inside. The father and son looked at each other with serious expressions and cried. It seemed that they were making quite a fuss.
The father and son did not dare to delay and pushed open the door and entered the house. When Song Yupan saw Yun Langqian coming home, he ran over and hugged him aggrievedly.
"Langqian, I want to go back to my mother's house. Your mother bullies me!"
Yun Langqian patted her back and said, "Don't cry. You just gave birth and your eyes are broken from crying."
Li Yuling was holding her child and wanted to cry.
"How did I bully you? Asking you to feed the baby is bullying you."
Yun Jianguo walked over, hugged his crying granddaughter, frowned,
"Okay, stop talking. If she doesn't want to be fed, then don't feed her. She can drink milk powder anyway."
Li Yuling lowered her head sadly, covered her mouth and cried, angrily cursed,
"Alright! It's all my fault. I shouldn't have meddled in other people's business! I don't care what her daughter drinks!"
Li Yuling ran upstairs crying, Yun Langqian called out anxiously,
"Mother!"
Yun Jianguo held his granddaughter and coaxed her, Yun Langqian took the child,
"Dad, go see my mom. She's crying."
Yun Jianguo took off his suit jacket and said, "It's no big deal. Women just like to nitpick. It's okay. Don't worry about her. It will be fine in a while."
Song Panpan was as elated as if she had won a battle, "Dad, Langqian, why are you back?"
Yun Jianguo said: "Thanks to the babysitter for calling us, otherwise you would have started arguing."
"Dad, Langqian, I didn't mean to not feed the baby. It hurts every time she bites me, and I'm afraid of the pain."
Yun Langqian replied nonchalantly, "It's the same with drinking milk powder. It's okay. Mom just can't get over it for a while. She'll be fine after a while."
Li Yuling returned to her bedroom and felt more and more aggrieved. In the afternoon, while her family was not paying attention, she packed her luggage and quietly took a bus to the train station. She was going to join her eldest son, Yun Muye.
In the evening, when Yun Jianguo discovered that his wife was gone, Li Yuling had already boarded the train to the army. She was going to see her eldest daughter-in-law and eldest grandson.
