"You, you, you old hag, if you were good to your daughter-in-law, would you have let her go back to work just three days after giving birth? It's all for your two grandsons! Everyone else thinks you're so nice, but I think you're more cunning than anyone else! You think you're so great!"
"Hey, so you actually know that women need to rest and recuperate after giving birth!"
Yang Yufen was so angry she laughed.
Qin Nian stepped forward and reached out her hand: "Mom, slow down, be careful not to fall, let's get down first."
Qin Nian's voice rang out again, separated by a wall.
"I know better than anyone who treats me well and who doesn't. When I was pregnant, my mother-in-law prepared three meals a day for me. When I was working, my mother-in-law fully supported me and let me have no worries."
I went back to work just three days after giving birth because I wanted to serve my country to the best of my ability. My mother-in-law didn't stop me or use the child to pressure me, which allowed me to do what I wanted. So, my mother-in-law's kindness isn't just for show; it's genuinely her way of being good to me!
Qin Nian spoke in a strong and resonant voice, looking gratefully at Yang Yufen, the two holding hands.
"Great! Excellent!"
A round of applause and cheers rang out outside the courtyard, drawing everyone's attention.
There were several people in military uniforms standing outside, including Dean Hu and Hu Jun.
"Comrade Yang Yufen's ideological awareness is worth learning from. Late marriage and late childbirth are a necessity of our revolution. The family should not become a shackle that hinders women's growth and values."
We encourage our women to be freed from tedious housework and devote themselves wholeheartedly to socialist construction. Gender discrimination against women is absolutely unacceptable. Workers, farmers, soldiers—every profession allows us to realize our value!
When Wang Aimin came out and saw the leaders outside, he felt a chill in his heart.
"We came here today to express our condolences to Comrade Shen Xianjun, but we didn't expect to see this scene. Dean Hu, the families in our residential compound need to raise their awareness! Doing research requires not only knowledge, but also moral character."
"We really should hold more ideological meetings. It's getting late, so let's go see Comrade Shen Xianjun first."
Dean Hu glanced at Wang Aimin.
"Grandpa!"
Da Bao ran out like a little firecracker, rushed to Dean Hu's legs, and tried to climb up.
"Ouch, slow down."
Dean Hu quickly helped the child up and was about to pick him up when someone beat him to it.
Commander Liao lifted Da Bao up with one hand. Da Bao wasn't afraid. He grabbed Commander Liao's hand, locked his legs together, and tried to climb up. His big eyes were full of curiosity as he looked at Commander Liao.
"These must be the twins from the current army. This kid takes after his father."
Commander Liao burst into laughter and changed from lifting the child to carrying him in his arms.
Dean Hu picked up the second child.
"Yes, the one in Commander Liao's arms is the eldest, Li Wu, and this is the second, Li Wen."
"The second son looks like your student, Comrade Xiao Qin."
Commander Liao smiled lovingly at Erbao.
The group left chatting and laughing, leaving Wang Aimin alone. Only after they were out of sight did Wang Aimin enter his house with a dark expression.
"Now you're satisfied? If I can't stay at the research institute, my whole family can go back to the countryside and farm!"
Wang Aimin threw down a sentence and went into the house. Wang's mother was also dumbfounded. She had only scolded her daughter-in-law a few times. What daughter-in-law is not supposed to be scolded by her mother-in-law? She hadn't even laid a hand on her yet!
"It's all because of you, you jinx!"
Wang's mother glared at her daughter-in-law who was holding the child, then glanced at the wall next door, swallowed her words, and turned to go find her son. She didn't want to go back to the countryside.
"Commander, what brings you here?"
Shen Xianjun was shocked to see his old leader and quickly bowed.
