Before leaving in the morning, Qiu Yuling warmed up the chicken soup in a clay pot. Now, when she passed by a state-owned restaurant, she went in and ordered a few braised pork buns to carry with her.
The two returned to the yard, and Li Qingmei was surprised for a moment, "Why are they exactly the same?" It was her first time to go back to her daughter's house. If she hadn't known something about it in advance, she would have thought she was in Willow Alley.
"Well, your son-in-law deserves your help. You can tell me about it. He has two identical courtyards. It always makes me confused."
Li Qingmei said nothing and looked at her daughter seriously, "It's all because of you." She doesn't know what's good for her.
"Okay, you've had classes all morning, go and take a rest. I'm here, so you don't have to hustle.
Oh, and don’t wake the baby up. Let’s eat quietly first.”
Qiu Yuling's outstretched finger stopped just an inch away from the baby's face, but she still waited for the opportunity when her mother turned around and poked it quickly.
It's incredibly soft.
It’s not that she had never touched a baby before, but at that time her mind didn’t seem to be on it. She just wanted to help the family and didn’t take it seriously. Now she feels completely different.
Just seeing this soft little doll can make you happy both physically and mentally.
She slipped onto the ground, followed Li Qingmei, and shared, "... maybe I really can relate to her."
"That's right. No matter how good your nephews are, they are not as worrying as your own flesh and blood."
"Aren't you jealous when I say this?"
"What's there to be jealous about? Who wouldn't feel sorry for the piece of flesh that fell from their body? Even I, the way I treat you four siblings, is far inferior to the way I treat Yingjun, Yingfen and the others.
It’s human nature.”
"Hey, Comrade Li Qingmei has been out more often now, and her experience has changed. She even speaks in four-character sentences~"
Li Qingmei angrily chased her daughter away, "Go, lie down on the chair under the eaves and take a rest, don't mess around."
After so many years, this girl still behaves like this in front of her. Li Qingmei has long been accustomed to it.
"Mother, is it my third sister-in-law who took the initiative to let you come back this time?"
"It was mother who was worried about you first this time, so your third sister-in-law asked me to bring Lan Dou back. She also said that last time we went to school, the two families would take turns taking care of him. But now I think, if I stay in the city to take care of you, what can I do if I go back?"
Qiu Yuling picked up a piece of pickled cucumber and put it in her mouth, saying vaguely, "It's okay. If you want to go back, go back. Just come here when you have time. I'm an adult now. How can I not take care of myself?"
"That was in the past. Now you're so busy and your son-in-law is away from home. To be honest, I'm really worried. Your father feels the same way."
"That's easy. I'll tell my third brother and his wife that you and Lan Dou can stay here without worry. When I'm free, I'll take you back with me. I'll ask Lan Dou to stay at his grandmother's house for a few more days, and then we'll bring him back..."
"That's fine. Just write in the letter and say it was my mother who said that..."
In fact, she had originally planned to ask her in-laws to go with her to the third son's house. She knew in her heart that the third son's wife had always wanted to ask the children's great-grandmother to take care of them again.
Qiu Yuling agreed. It was better for Qiu's mother to take the initiative than for her to give orders. After her brothers got married, she would not interfere in the affairs of their small families.
While she was serving her meal, she heard the sound of a bicycle bell ringing at the door. Qiu Yuling put down her bowl and went out. It was the postman she was familiar with.
"Here's your package. Here's the notification slip. Come pick it up when you have time."
Qiu Yuling said thank you, and the young man quickly went to the next place.
Li Qingmei came out holding Lan Dou, who had just woken up. "What happened?"
"Nothing, I guess your son-in-law sent something back again. I'll go get it later."
"I'll go with you. It's inconvenient for you to carry things."
Qiu Yuling couldn't refuse after thinking about it, "Then wait a minute, I'll go find something."
She remembered that Li Xingyao had tidied up and put away the baby stroller that he had let Qiao Yue use.
"Found it."
"What is this?" Li Qingmei followed behind.
"Please move aside, I'll take it out first." The house was actually very clean, but the things had been put away and not used for a long time. Qiu Yuling still took a cloth and wiped it again.
Then he called Li Qingmei to bring the baby in and try.
"Hey, this car is so nice. The baby can lie down in it, and there is a small shed, so it is not exposed to the wind or the sun." When it comes to enjoying life, her daughter has to be the one.
Now it was good. The baby could lie on it without getting tired, and she could go out. Li Qingmei immediately freed her hands. "Wait until I wash the pot, and then I'll go get the package for you."
Qiu Yuling looked at the time. The afternoon class was still a while away, so there was still plenty of time.
When she was leaving, she saw her daughter still carrying a backpack and books, and she regretted it again, "You said I was taking care of you, but you see I was busy with this and that. You still have classes in the afternoon, and I didn't even ask you to lie down for a while."
"It's okay. I'm just checking in for this afternoon class. I'll be back soon. If the class is going to be long, I know I need to take a break."
After dispelling her mother's doubts, the mother and daughter went out on the street affectionately.
"Director Qiu, this is your mother, right?" When they passed by the gate of the cadre family compound, the guard greeted them from a distance.
This was the first time Li Qingmei was treated with such courtesy, and she felt a little embarrassed.
"Well, my mom is here to help for two days."
"Oh, Mother Qiu is so lucky to have such a wonderful child..."
Qiu Yuling stopped to exchange a few words of greeting. Li Qingmei kept smiling the whole time. Anyone who passed by and knew Qiu Yuling would greet them very warmly.
After she had walked through that section, she breathed a sigh of relief, "So enthusiastic!" It was so enthusiastic!
"More trustworthy than those old ladies at the village entrance."
Qiu Yuling smiled and asked her, "Didn't you ever get treated like this when you went to your son's house?"
Li Qingmei: “…”
“Hahahahahaha…”
After laughing enough, Qiu Yuling put her arm around her mother's shoulders and said, "How is it? Your daughter is the one who gets the honor. Let me tell you, if you follow me, you will enjoy the good life in the future.
Later, I will buy you and my dad an apartment. It will have heating in the winter and fans in the summer. There will be water in the house so you won’t freeze your butt when you go to the bathroom. There will also be electricity at all times. Maybe I can even wire your phone into the house..."
"Just keep bragging!" Although he said that, he couldn't hide the smile on his face.
I took the package, it was very big, and the small wooden cart had two layers, luckily there was enough space, so I managed to squeeze it into the bottom layer.
"I don't know what the son-in-law sent you. He's really good at pretending. Don't worry, I'll watch. You go in and check in. When you come out, we'll go back together."
"Okay, you and Lan Dou stay under the elm tree over there to enjoy the cool air. I'll go in and chat for a while and then I'll be back."
Qiu Yuling was talking about serious matters. The current night school was just something the workers were shouting about, and she really had this idea in mind.
The Zaohua Factory is so big, it’s not impossible to set up a point there!
