Julie had always been instilled with the idea by her mother that she was no good, that she couldn't manage the household and that they couldn't save money.
But when she actually started managing the money herself, she knew she had to be careful with the money without being told anything, because she calculated that the various expenses of raising a child amounted to several million, which was terrifying.
Therefore, you must be careful with your money and be able to take charge of your home to make it the way you like.
I joined a group for new mothers and listened to them complain about all sorts of weird mothers-in-law and sisters-in-law.
She found that her mother-in-law was really wonderful.
She has no worries about mother-in-law/daughter-in-law relationships, no need to compete with her mother-in-law for her husband, and no need to worry about her mother-in-law feeling sorry for her husband.
My mother-in-law won't check up on me every few days, and she certainly won't tell me what I can't eat or what I can't eat.
In short, there's no harm without comparison; looking at it this way, how come she's so lucky?
Without her mother fanning the flames and without any comparison, she felt her life was too good.
As for Julie's mother, she tried to come over and ask for money, but was eventually kicked out by security. Julie said that she would give them living expenses when they got old, but she wouldn't give them a penny more.
Are you kidding me? She finally gets to make her own decisions, and now you want to turn her back into that little girl who has to listen to her mother in everything? Sorry, she doesn't want to.
Why should she change when she's so happy with her life now?
Moreover, her husband, who dotes on her, booked a postpartum care center for her—no, I should say her mother-in-law.
Before Mo Yan returned, she called them and asked them to book a package directly through the postpartum care center.
"You need to know that you must be in a good mood during postpartum confinement. At the postpartum care center, everything will be arranged for you. Your food and drink will be nutritionally balanced. If you rely on Zhu Yangshu, I'm afraid you'll get stomach aches every day from the stress."
"When the baby cries, someone helps soothe him, and there's all sorts of postpartum care. It's so much better than that! I had nothing back then, and I ended up with postpartum complications. It's not just about a man taking good care of you; it's about professional and attentive care."
What Mo Yan said is true. You do save money at home, but the meals you prepare aren't as well-balanced as those at the postpartum care center. And at the center, someone will immediately help you soothe the baby whenever they cry. You'll be in a great mood every day, and there are all sorts of postpartum recovery benefits—isn't that a good kind of postpartum care?
If you are not able to manage and are doing postpartum care at home, you must still keep yourself in a good mood, because postpartum illnesses are not to be taken lightly.
[As an aside, if your budget allows, I highly recommend using a postpartum care center in many cities.]
Julie was aware of postpartum care centers, but she hadn't yet made up her mind to spend 100,000 yuan.
Zhu Yangshu made the decision without saying a word after hearing his mother's words.
"No matter how much it costs, as long as it's good for your health, we'll take it. Money can never be earned enough, but I only have one wife."
Although Zhu Yangshu is a bit of a jerk, he's really good to his wife.
So when Zhu's mother called Zhu Li to talk about Mo Yan, Zhu Li didn't listen at all.
“How can a husband’s family not take care of their daughter-in-law during her postpartum period? Even if they don’t, your mother is here. I know all sorts of secret recipes that will definitely help you produce more milk. Give me that 100,000 yuan.”
What Zhu's mother wanted most was still 100,000 yuan.
"No need, Mom. I think the postpartum care center is great. Let's leave it at that."
When Mo Yan returned, Julie had already started labor, and Mo Yan went straight to the hospital.
Three days after giving birth, Zhu Yangshu went to a postpartum care center and stayed with her there.
She really just stayed by her side. Other people's babies have someone to comfort them when they cry, but all Julie needs to do every day is follow along with her postpartum recovery and feed her baby. Then she can eat.
