Chapter 226 Born Again
On August 10, Jiang Xinbai gave birth to her second child and named him Yang Jiadong.
In the room, Jiang Xinbai, with a headscarf on her head, was holding her child and feeding him. Yang Jiabao also came to his mother and said enviously, "Mom, my brother drinks so happily!" He swallowed his saliva as he spoke.
Sun Erni was delighted when she saw it, and she joked, "Xiaobao, do you want some milk too? Let mommy feed you one, too."
Jiang Xinbai glanced at her eldest son and said, "Do you really want to drink? Wait until your brother finishes, and then mom will squeeze out some for you." Anyway, there was a lot of milk this time, and the younger son wouldn't be able to finish it.
Yang Jiabao hid away embarrassedly, still shouting, "I don't want to drink! I'm not a child anymore."
Chen Cui'e in the room was also amused by her grandson's appearance, "You still don't drink, and others want to drink but can't!"
After Jiang Xinbai finished feeding the baby, she handed the baby to her husband and whispered, "Jinsheng, burp the baby."
"Okay, okay." Yang Jinsheng saw that his mother-in-law had something to say to his wife, so he took the child and went to the west room.
Seeing that only the mother and daughter were in the room, Chen Cui'e quickly sat down beside the bed, her eyes full of joy, "Xiaobai, I have good news for you. Your sister-in-law is pregnant. I originally thought that Lai Dajiao was unreliable, but after several months, there was no news from your sister-in-law. I was ready to give up, but she got pregnant. I am so happy."
Jiang Xinbai raised his eyebrows and said with a smile: "I was wondering if you were particularly happy today, Mom. It turns out there is really great news!"
"Well, this is great news! I should have come to see you yesterday, but your third brother called again and said that your third sister-in-law fainted and was sent to the hospital. The doctor said she was pregnant. I was worried again, so I went to see your third sister-in-law first. You won't blame mom, right?"
Jiang Xinbai shook his head. "I have my mother-in-law and Jinsheng here. You should take care of Third Sister-in-law first! You have to be careful with the child you conceived with great difficulty."
"Yes, that's what I said, but I didn't expect your sister-in-law's mother to be even more exaggerated. She wanted your sister-in-law to stay at home to wait for the birth of the baby. I think that's a bit exaggerated. It's only been two months. It's not necessary."
Chen Cui'e only said this in front of her daughter, and didn't say anything to her daughter-in-law. Anyway, the two families lived far away from each other, and the care work would probably be done by the in-laws. Since she didn't do any work, there was no need for her to express any opinions.
Jiang Xinbai nodded, "Aunt Qian is also worried. Third sister-in-law doesn't want you to take care of her anyway, so don't say anything more."
"I won't say much. I've secretly raised a few chickens at home. I thought I'd send some eggs to your sister-in-law every ten days. If it's not enough, I'll exchange some from the village. We've been waiting for this child so long!"
Chen Cui'e wiped her tears while talking. Although she didn't say anything, she was worried in her heart. The third son was already inferior to others as a son-in-law, and if he didn't have a child, who knows how outsiders would frame them!
"Mom, everything is fine now. Don't cry anymore. Xiaobao will laugh at you when he comes in and sees you." Jiang Xinbai smiled and handed her mother a handkerchief, asking her to wipe her tears.
Chen Cui'e pressed the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief, took a long breath, and said with a smile: "Now that you all have children, you are all living a good life. Your father and I are still capable, and we can save some money for our retirement. This will not be a burden to you."
"Mom, don't worry. The days ahead will only get better and better." Jiang Xinbai thought about the reform and opening up in her dream. Although she didn't quite understand what it meant, according to what happened in her dream, everyone could do business freely and would not be accused of speculation. I guess this is what opening up means! Although she and her husband don't have the business acumen, her third brother Jiang Baocheng does. Hehe, she can follow him then.
"Well, life will only get better. You should behave yourself in the city. Don't do anything you are not allowed to do. Our village has inspection teams that come to raid it every day, criticizing this and that. We are so tired that we are always on tenterhooks. You should be even more careful in the city."
Chen Cui'e thought of the young men who were making trouble in their village, and her eyes darkened. These guys will get their comeuppance sooner or later.
"Well, Jinsheng and I are paying attention to it!" Fortunately, their ancestors are of good family background and clean background. As long as nothing that shouldn't be there is found, their family will generally not be implicated.
"Oh, I didn't expect that the poorer you are, the safer you are at this time." Chen Cui'e smiled self-deprecatingly.
Jiang Xinbai lowered his head silently, thinking to himself, he was not poor, he had hidden a lot of yellow croakers, just waiting for the day when they could see the light of day again. By then, he would exchange them for money, do nothing, and lie down happily.
"Hey, there's one more thing. Your eldest sister's son Shixin is also fourteen years old. He will soon be old enough to go to the countryside. Your eldest sister is so anxious that her mouth is bubbling."
Chen Cui'e feels upset when talking about this. Nowadays, it is hard to buy a job in the city even if you have money. In fact, according to her, since they were all born in the countryside and it is okay for boys to go to the countryside.
Jiang Xin nodded in understanding. Her eldest brother-in-law worked in the security department, and her eldest sister later found a temporary job. This job could not be passed on to Shih Hsin University. If she wanted to avoid going to the countryside, she really had to have a job. Fortunately, her eldest nephew had not graduated from junior high school yet, so there was still time.
"I told your eldest sister that if it really doesn't work, we should find someone to arrange in advance for Shih Hsin to go to the countryside in our village, so that your father and I can take care of the child."
"Is that possible? Will the Youth League Office agree to arrange a place so close to you?"
"Why can't you just agree? Give some money and make some connections. Isn't it okay? Is your brother-in-law the deputy chief of the security department for nothing?"
Jiang Xinbai nodded and thought to himself, yes, money makes the world go round!
"But now many educated youth have returned to the city and have taken over their parents' jobs. Because of this, many families have even fought."
Jiang Xinbai thought of a family on the street ahead. The eldest sister-in-law in the family was worried about her mother-in-law's job, and the mother-in-law wanted to keep the money for her younger son who was working in the countryside. Because of this, the family had a small quarrel every day and a big quarrel every three days. Their life was very uneasy.
"Of course not. These are life-threatening matters. Everyone wants to return to the city to enjoy a peaceful life, so naturally there will be trouble." Chen Cui'e glanced at her youngest daughter and thought to herself that it was a good thing that she and her husband were both from the countryside, otherwise she would have a headache with several children at home.
