Cao Yufen and Guo Shuzeng have been married for over thirty years. She's already this old. If her husband and son kick her out again, what will she do in the future?
Thinking of this, Cao Yufen didn't dare to say anything sarcastic, even if she wanted to.
"Xiping, you absolutely mustn't say anything to your Uncle Guo."
"Well, the old lady saw Baojun come home crying, and feeling sorry for her grandson, she said a few unpleasant things to Xiaofeng."
"Xiaofeng, did you hear that? Grandma Guo is just talking nonsense. Don't take her words seriously."
Remember this: you are the eldest grandson of the Sheng family. Even if your uncle has his own child, he will still love you just as much.
Zhang Shuzhen patted Chen Feng on the shoulder and said to him in a low voice.
"No one will kick you out. You can eat whatever you want at home. We can afford to support you, understand?"
"Okay, Grandma, I understand. I won't believe anyone who says that anymore."
Xiao Chenfeng is very smart. Given the Sheng family's attitude, what else could he not believe?
"Mom, shall we go home? It's so cold, we don't want Lao Liu and Xiao Feng to get too cold."
On a cold December night, the wind was biting. They stood in the courtyard talking, breathing in the cold wind. If they didn't go home soon, they would freeze to the bone.
“Okay, let’s go home.” Zhang Shuzhen nodded, took Chen Feng’s hand with one hand, and walked straight out of the Guo family’s gate without even glancing at the old woman from the Guo family.
Sheng Xitai and Sheng Xiping ignored everyone and simply followed their mother away.
Granny Guo was wearing a small cotton-padded jacket, but only a large cotton-padded coat was draped over her shoulders. In just a short time, she had been frozen to the bone.
Seeing the Sheng family leave, she turned around and quickly ran back into the house, rubbing her hands together and breathing on them to warm them, while muttering unpleasant words under her breath.
"Didn't you see how that family was making things difficult for me? Are you dead? Don't you know how to speak up for me?"
Who am I doing this for? Isn't it all for your brat?
If he gets bullied outside, and you don't stand up for him, I'll stand up for him. I'll have someone scold him like a grandson.
"And what do you do? You hide inside and won't come out. What kind of good person are you pretending to be?"
This old woman lost face in front of the Sheng family, and now she's causing trouble for her daughter-in-law.
"Mom, how would I know what they're here for? I figured you just need to leave."
Baoguo is sleepy and wants to sleep, and Baogang is hungry and wants to nurse. I have to take care of the babies first.
Guo's eldest daughter-in-law has been married into the family for many years now, and she has suffered countless mistreatments from her mother-in-law, both openly and secretly.
She couldn't openly confront her mother-in-law, but seeing her mother-in-law being scolded like that by the Sheng family made her feel incredibly relieved. She could even go out and speak up for her mother-in-law.
"The moment I mention it, you immediately try to use my grandson as a scapegoat. Get out of here, you're such a nuisance. I'm freezing, quickly get me a basin of hot water to wash my feet."
Old Mrs. Guo was so angry with her daughter-in-law that she turned around and went inside to warm up without giving her a good look.
"You can do it yourself. I still need to lock the door and put the kids to bed. All three of them are crying and want to sleep."
In the past, she always had to put up with her mother-in-law's temper. If she was unhappy, her mother-in-law would make a scene, threatening to kill herself, forcing her to obey.
But tonight, Guo's eldest daughter-in-law finally saw through her mother-in-law, realizing that she was just a paper tiger, a bully who preyed on the weak.
From now on, she won't care about any of that. As long as she can take care of the children and herself, that's enough. If necessary, she can just move out and live separately.
Leaving aside the discord between the Guo family's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, let's just talk about Sheng Xiping and Zhang Shuzhen. They were freezing after being out for half a day, so they took off their shoes and went to warm up on the kang (heated brick bed) as soon as they got home.
Zhang Shuzhen hugged Chen Feng tightly and rubbed his little hands. "Grandson, are you relieved now?"
Don't listen to those people talking nonsense. They're just jealous of how well you're doing and they're deliberately trying to make you angry.
They'll be happy if you make them cry.
"If anyone criticizes you again, just yell back. It's okay, even if you cause trouble, Grandma will help you."
Zhang Shuzhen was still furious, mainly because she felt she hadn't performed well tonight.
Originally, she planned that if Cao Yufen didn't say nice things and acted like a scoundrel, she would go all out tonight and scratch that old woman's face until it was covered in blood.
This will also let outsiders know that Zhang Shuzhen is not someone to be trifled with, and that anyone who wants to say anything in front of the children should think twice.
And what happened? Cao Yufen backed down the moment they met, and Zhang Shuzhen, with nowhere to vent her anger, only managed to say a few lukewarm words.
It's boring, so boring.
When Sheng Xiping heard his mother say this, he smiled and shook his head. This old lady loves her child to no end. How could she say such a thing in front of the child?
"Ahem, Mom, it's getting late. Let them all pack up and go to bed."
I'm staying with Qinglan and the child tonight. You must not have slept well last night, so please get a good rest tonight.
Right now, the most important thing is to take care of Zhou Qinglan. Sheng Xiping only has a few days of vacation, and he will do his best to take care of his wife and son, which is his duty.
"Oh, no need, I'll just move in. You don't know anything, do you even know how to change a diaper?"
Upon hearing this, Zhang Shuzhen immediately waved her hand. In the minds of the older generation, men are all clumsy and incompetent; how could they possibly take care of a woman during her postpartum period?
“It’s okay, Mom, I can learn if I don’t know how. I’m the father of the child, and these are things I should do.”
"It's only a few days of vacation, it won't tire me out." Sheng Xiping insisted on his opinion.
"Alright, then you can stay in that room. Be alert at night, and get up quickly if the child cries."
Don't be like your dad, saying he'll help me with the kids, but at night he sleeps like a log, snoring like a ton of bricks.
