National Day is coming soon. Because this year is a leap month, October 6th happens to be the Mid-Autumn Festival.
The Mid-Autumn Festival is Lu Ting’s 30th birthday. Logically speaking, the 30th birthday is a big birthday, so there must be several tables for celebration.
The Hua and Su families were invited to dinner for the three children's one-month-old birthday, but Lu Ting naturally didn't invite them for his birthday.
Even if the relatives didn't come, Su Yan wanted to help Lu Ting celebrate. Not only did she prepare a lot of dishes for Lu Ting outside, but the whole family gathered together to have a lively time.
At ten o'clock in the evening, she prepared a fruit cake, red wine and seafood barbecue for Lu Ting in the space.
"Happy birthday, Lu Ting. I wish you a happy birthday every year."
"Thank you, Yanyan! Having you and the children is the greatest blessing in my life."
"You are also the greatest blessing in my life."
Su Yan felt that Lu Ting was a really good person. No matter how tired or hard it was, he would never say a single extra word.
One day at four o'clock in the middle of the night, she turned over and suddenly woke up, watching Lu Ting holding his little girl against the head of the bed and feeding her. She was obviously very sleepy but she was forcing herself to stay awake.
If any other man would have moved to the next room to sleep long ago, Hua Min also persuaded him several times, saying that he had to work during the day and asked him to sleep next door with Yiming. She said that the children needed milk powder at night and she could come to help feed them.
Lu Ting didn't listen and said that the current situation was good. His parents would help take care of one child, and he and Su Yan would take care of two.
Su Yan also knew that Chen Yuhe was not her relative, and it was good enough that she could help her take care of the child during the day. There was no reason to stuff someone into their room at night.
Besides, she has been actively preparing for pregnancy this year. If she pushes the third child over, won’t it affect their relationship?
To thank Chen Yuhe, Su Yan took out twenty kilograms of cotton and some quilt fabric from the space and made two new quilts for her.
Chen Yuhe was naturally delighted. These quilts weighed ten kilograms each. Her wedding quilts weighed four kilograms each and six kilograms each. In winter, she needed two quilts to stay warm. Now, with the new quilt given by her sister-in-law, she could get away with just one.
Su Yan prepared two new quilts for Chen Yuhe, and naturally also prepared a new quilt for her parents-in-law.
We also prepared an old wool sweater for each of them. These sweaters were also sample garments found in the wool pile in the warehouse.
Although everyone was very tired of taking care of the child, Su Yan did not treat them badly in terms of food, clothing and other expenses. Hua Min and Chen Yuhe naturally did not want to, and were willing to help Su Yan take care of the child.
The Lu family was relatively peaceful, but the Qin family was in chaos. Lu Shu took advantage of her daughter's full-month banquet and said she would take the child back to her parents' home, but ended up throwing her on the doorstep of a working family. If she hadn't been seen by an acquaintance of hers and told Lu Shu's husband, Qin Yu might really have become someone else's child.
On October 15, Lu Shu returned to the Lu family home with her fourth child. Everyone thought she was returning to take care of the baby after the baby was born. To avoid her, Su Yan stayed in her room with the baby.
Who knew that Lu Shu would burst into tears as soon as she came back, hugging Hua Min and crying, saying that her husband wanted to divorce her.
Hua Min asked her what was going on, and Lu Shu told her, "Mom, I just don't want the child's father to work too hard. If we send one away, we'll have one less child to raise. But the child's father didn't want to.
As soon as I sent the child away, the father took him back, and I was scolded by the family.
"Well scolded, how dare you say that? How could you have the heart to send away the child you worked so hard to give birth to?"
"If I don't give Xiaoyu away, should I give Xiaoxue away? Xiaoxue is so big now, no one will want her even if she's given away, unless Big Brother is willing to help us raise her."
"Your brother already has Zhuzhu, how could he possibly help you raise Xiaoxue?"
"Big brother's daughter's name is Zhuzhu? I didn't expect that a little girl would become the apple of your eye."
"Be quiet, don't let your sister-in-law hear you. Zhuzhu is a nickname, not a real name. The fourth child's real name is Lu Yiru, the second child's is Lu Yian, and the third child's is Lu Yining."
"My eldest brother and his wife are at peace, but our Qin family is not."
"Who is that person to blame? And what kind of names did you give your children? It's either Snow or Frost, and finally Xiaoyu. This is like adding insult to injury and finally adding insult to injury. If you have another daughter, won't you name her Xiaofeng, meaning wind and rain?"
Hua Min also accidentally heard the eldest daughter-in-law talking to her son about the names of her daughters, saying that these names together would affect their fortunes.
It’s no wonder Hua Min really thinks what his daughter-in-law said is right. It is said that a person’s name reflects his character. The name should have good intentions. A bad name will affect one’s fortune in life.
"Mom, how can you say that? When I was naming my eldest son, I just flipped through the calendar and saw Frost Descent, so I wanted to name him Qin Shuang.
When Qin Xue was born, it happened to be snowing, so I chose Qin Xue. When it came to Qin Yu, I just picked one at random.
If I have another child, I will definitely give birth to a son. My son is called Qin Siming. If I have another son, he will be called Qin Sinian."
Oh, give her another son, what if she gives her another daughter? Her family's Shushu is really obsessed with giving birth to a son. Hua Min doesn't want Lu Shu to continue to be obsessed with it, so she tells her about Su Yan giving birth to a child.
"My dear, do you know how dangerous childbirth was for your sister-in-law? She almost died from heavy bleeding. You already have a son, which is enough. What if you give birth to another girl?"
"You said that my sister-in-law had heavy bleeding during childbirth. Does that mean she won't be able to have children?"
"What are you thinking? If Yanyan wanted to have a child, she would have done so years ago. She wanted to have another daughter, so she got pregnant with a second child.
Who knew the second child would be triplets? I almost died giving birth. Yanyan will never have another child. Your brother got a sterilization when your eldest sister-in-law was pregnant."
"Is my eldest brother crazy? How can a man get sterilized? If anyone needs sterilization, it should be done by lesbians. Will my brother's sterilization affect their married life?"
"Don't worry about your brother's affairs. I advise you to go back and have a good talk with your son-in-law. Now that Xiaoyu is born, you should raise her well.
Now you have four children in your family, and you live with your parents-in-law. If you give birth in the living room, you won’t even have a place to sleep.”
Lu Shu burst into tears when she thought about her family's situation. "Mom, why am I so miserable? The house is too small, the savings are not much, and I gave birth to several daughters in a row. Now the father of the children wants to divorce me."
"Who is to blame for this? It's all your own fault."
“…”
Su Yan heard intermittent noises coming from next door in her room. She felt neither sad nor happy. If Lu Shu hadn't done it herself, her brother-in-law would never have filed for divorce.
I don’t know what Hua Min said to Lu Shu, but she was still smiling when she left in the afternoon.
Chen Yuhe secretly told Su Yan, "Sister-in-law, do you know why my sister-in-law was smiling when she left?"
"Why?"
"Mom gave Lu Shu a hundred yuan and told her not to send the child away anymore and to take good care of Qin Yu."
It turned out that she went back to her parents' home to beg for money. Su Yan felt that Lu Shu was becoming more and more out of character. When Lu Ting went to Qin's house to visit the mother and daughter, he not only bought her a lot of nutritional supplements, but also gave the child fifty yuan.
As a result, when Lu Shu came over, she was stingy with her three children and even asked Su Yan for a bag of baby formula.
