Chapter 629 The Wife's Thoughts
Li Da Xiong's sincere answer, coupled with the obvious affection he showed for Li Da Xiong's wife on his face at that moment, was a devastating blow to Jiang Da Xiong, who was "criticizing" and "demanding" from Li Da Xiong in the name of his brother-in-law. It was a direct knockout.
"You, you, this..."
Good, very good. My father really did not misjudge you!
You're a good person. Mei Niang is lucky to have you. Good, very good.
Brother Li bowed his head and accepted Brother Jiang's praise. However, Brother Li was genuinely distressed by the suffering his sister-in-law had endured. Brother Li then raised his head and said to Brother Jiang, "Brother-in-law, Mei Niang has suffered so much this time. My family will make sure Mei Niang has a double postpartum period."
If my mother-in-law is willing, she can move into our courtyard directly. She doesn't need to do anything; she just needs to be able to talk to Mei Niang every day.
My mother and younger sister are here, and I'll be taking care of Xiao Liu after my night shift. I just want Mei Niang to get some rest; taking care of her health is the most important thing.
Faced with such a Li brother, what could the Jiang brother say but grunt and groan?
At this moment, Mr. Li stroked his beard and nodded slightly, feeling somewhat proud.
"My eldest son has learned a lot from me. As a son-in-law, how can I not cherish the wife who has borne my child?"
That's how you do it! That's what a real man does, a true gentleman!
For lunch, the Li family set up two tables: one in the room where Sister-in-law Li was, and another in the main hall of the Li family.
These two tables were naturally booked from outside.
Although Jiang's mother felt sorry for Li's sister-in-law, she knew that families like the Li family, who treated their daughters-in-law like this, were extremely rare.
The eldest brother of the Jiang family would no longer "find fault," after all, since the eldest brother of the Li family had already said that he would take medicine, what reason could the eldest brother of the Jiang family, as a man, possibly have?
Therefore, the lunch was a very pleasant one for both the host and guests.
Before leaving, Jiang's mother did not stay overnight, but said to Sister-in-law Li, "Seeing that you are well, your mother is relieved."
It's clear that your mother-in-law, son-in-law, and even your aunt all love and care for you very much. That's good, that's good. Your mother can rest assured now.
"Alright, alright. Your mother will come to see you again later this month. If you want to see your mother, just send someone to tell her, and your mother will certainly come to see you."
Sister-in-law Li has been married into the Li family for more than ten years and is inseparable from the Li family by blood. But how can she sever her feelings for her own mother, with whom she has a blood relationship?
Hearing what Jiang's mother said, Li Dasao, who was leaning against the bed, nodded and replied with tears in her eyes: "Yes, after I finish my confinement, I will take Xiao Liu home to see my mother."
The Li family treated the three members of the Jiang family well as they left, thus ensuring that they had properly entertained their in-laws.
Inside the carriage carrying the three members of the Jiang family, the eldest brother did not sit on the carriage shaft and follow the driver back this time. Instead, he got into the carriage and glanced at his mother and sister-in-law who were talking several times, looking as if he wanted to say something but hesitated. Jiang's mother was really annoyed by the eldest brother's behavior.
What are you doing?
A man speaks his mind!
If you only want to talk to your wife, then go home and talk to her in your yard!
Why are you putting on this act in front of your mother!
Faced with his mother's impatient eye-rolling, the eldest brother of the Jiang family had no temper at all. After thinking for a moment, he smiled ingratiatingly at his mother and told her and his sister-in-law what he had said to his eldest brother in the main hall of the Li family, as well as his eldest brother's reply to him.
"...Mother, that's how it is."
My brother-in-law's words startled me on the spot.
I'm at a loss for words.
Mother, look!
Jiang's eldest sister-in-law didn't dare to shout in front of Jiang's mother, but judging from the astonished expression on her wide-open face, she found it utterly unbelievable.
Unlike her sister-in-law, who couldn't hold her temper and showed her emotions directly, Jiang's mother kept a serious face and didn't answer her eldest brother's question directly. Instead, she looked up at her eldest brother and asked, "Do you remember the expression on the faces of the Li family's in-laws in the hall after the Li family's son-in-law said those words?"
What did the in-laws say?
After carefully recalling the events, the eldest brother of the Jiang family replied to his mother, "Mother, Uncle Li did not say anything. If I am not mistaken, after my brother-in-law said that, Uncle Li looked proud, as if he thought his son had done the right thing."
Mother Jiang nodded, "That's fine then. Since our son-in-law has his own ideas and our in-laws don't object, let's not make a fuss. As long as Mei Niang is alright, that's all that matters."
After sharing his thoughts with the eldest brother of the Jiang family, Brother Li finally sent Li San Niang, Qiu Xiang, and Wu Qiao Lan to rest after dinner. Brother Li was wringing out a towel soaked in hot water to wipe Sister-in-law Li's lower body so that she could feel refreshed and comfortable.
After everything was done, Brother Li sat on the edge of the bed with a comb and began to comb Sister-in-law Li's hair. While combing her hair, Brother Li carefully said to Sister-in-law Li, "Mei Niang, I was thinking that after you finish your confinement period, I would ask Father to prescribe some medicine for me. After I can no longer have children, you won't have to suffer anymore."
Brother Li's hands kept moving, but Sister-in-law Li was truly shocked.
She suddenly turned her head and stared blankly at Brother Li. After a few moments, Sister-in-law Li asked, "What, what are you thinking?"
Have you thought this through?
"Once you've taken the medicine, there's no going back."
Brother Li gently pushed Sister-in-law Li to turn around and then started to comb her hair again, one stroke at a time.
"Hey, I've already thought it through."
I even thought so when you were just starting primary six.
This time, you gave birth to your sixth child, all thanks to your third aunt. If it weren't for your third aunt, I don't even want to imagine what it would have been like.
Even though Third Sister came up with a way to save you, you still suffered quite a bit this time.
We already have three sons, which is enough. Besides, didn't we already say that having two sons was enough?
"Now there's something else to make you suffer," Brother Li said, glancing at the sleeping little Liu Lang in the basket beside the bed. "Third Sister said that you've suffered this time, so you need to take good care of yourself."
Mother also said that you should have a double confinement period, Mei Niang. You and I are going to spend our whole lives together, and we will be buried together in the future.
"Only if you are well can we grow old together."
"Dalang!"
Sister-in-law Li turned around, her eyes brimming with tears as she looked at Brother Li, calling out his name. Her heart and eyes were filled with nothing but Brother Li. Sister-in-law Li felt light as a feather. Brother Li hadn't uttered a single word of love in his words, but his love for Sister-in-law Li was evident in every gesture.
"Why are you crying now?"
I know very well that women in postpartum confinement shouldn't cry, so quickly wipe her clean.
Brother Li quickly got up, found a cloth, and wiped away Sister-in-law Li's tears of emotion, saying as he did so, "Mei Niang, I've really thought it through, really."
