Chapter 218 For Your Own Good
Yang Yuemei said irritably, "How could I feel at ease if I didn't come when the child was crying like that?"
"Get out of the way."
Lu Xiangyang quickly stepped aside.
Yang Yuemei entered the room and saw Jiang Jianni wiping away tears. She was speechless: "You really are..."
Jiang Jianni was surprised to see her: "Mom, what brings you here?"
Yang Yuemei: "The child was crying so loudly that Dudu was woken up and started crying too."
"I've lived here for so long, and this is the first time I've heard several children cry together. How can I feel at ease if I don't come and check on them?"
There are advantages and disadvantages to having a family living in different floors.
The advantage is that you don't need to go out and call for help when you need it; you can just stick your head out the window and shout.
The downside is that if there's even a little noise at home, the upstairs neighbors will know and then they'll ask about it.
For example, right now.
Even though the house is of very good quality now, with 360-degree thick walls and excellent sound insulation, the crying of the four children not only woke up Dudu and made her cry, but also woke up Yang Yuemei.
Yang Yuemei noticed that only one of the four children was wearing a vest, while the other three were completely naked. She grabbed one of the children and put a vest on him as well.
They even put diapers on them.
Seeing these diapers made Yang Yuemei feel choked up: "You guys are really something. Why don't you just be more diligent in raising your children? Why bother making diapers for them?"
"All you know is that you're slacking off."
Yes.
That's right.
They already have disposable diapers for their children.
Although it's only been two or three months, having disposable diapers has really saved us a lot of trouble.
The four children have been given excellent lifestyle habits; as long as they eat another meal at 10 pm, they won't wake up all night.
He won't wake up even if he needs to urinate.
She poops twice a day, morning and evening, which is incredibly convenient.
Before disposable diapers were available, we had to change diapers once in the middle of the night. Now that Lu Haiqiang is a little older, we can potty train him in the middle of the night.
But ever since diapers came into being, this activity at night has been completely canceled.
Not only can children sleep until six or seven in the morning, but adults can finally get a full night's sleep too.
You don't have to wake up in a fright to touch your child's bottom while they're sleeping.
Otherwise, when Lu's mother was so angry about Lu's father's gaming addiction that she wanted to take him back to quit gaming, they wouldn't have kept Lu Haiqiang with them.
Jiang Jianni: "Just tell me if it's convenient or not."
Yang Yuemei: "...Such an expensive item is certainly convenient."
Actually, I didn't pay any money.
Thanks to Jiang Jiani's idea, these diapers sold quite well in big cities, at least much better than sanitary napkins.
There's nothing we can do; that's just how Chinese people are.
You can be as frugal as you want with yourself, but when it comes to your child, you can spend any amount of money.
After they found out that the family had four children, they simply sent them a lot of diapers.
Not to mention that they will give more in the future, the ones that have been delivered now have filled several boxes in the study, enough for the four children to use for several months.
Since the four children couldn't use it all at once, Jiang Jianni simply gave some to Dudu.
Although Dudu is a few months older than these four children, she is still at the age where she wets the bed.
It will take at least two or three more years to get rid of bedwetting.
"What's wrong with you? You're a mother now, why are you crying? Your eyes are so red, did Lu Xiangyang bully you?"
"Tell me if he bullies you."
Jiang Jianni sniffed: "What's the use of telling you? Can you help me get revenge?"
Yang Yuemei slapped her: "You brat, what grudge do you two have against each other?"
"I mean, I'll help you judge this."
Jiang Jianni: "...Then forget it. You're always trying to smooth things over. I thought you would side with me."
"No wonder people always say that a mother-in-law finds her son-in-law more and more interesting the more she looks at him."
"I think you've forgotten your daughter now that you have a son-in-law."
Yang Yuemei was so angry that she slapped the back of her hand twice: "You brat, you're just trying to annoy me."
"Wasn't I doing this for your own good?"
Most mothers-in-law in the world think the same way.
They all hope that by treating their son-in-law well, they can achieve the goal of their son-in-law treating their daughter well in return.
Sometimes when their daughter is wronged, they advise her to be patient, ultimately hoping that their daughter can have someone to rely on and a complete family.
After all, in this world, it is extremely difficult for women to live alone.
Of course, there are exceptions, such as a few who treat their daughters like ATMs.
Lu Xiangyang had originally intended to come in, but stopped when he heard the conversation between the mother and daughter in the bedroom.
It was getting late, and after the children had been playing around for a while, they all fell asleep, sprawled out in various positions.
Yang Yuemei breathed a sigh of relief: "You really have to thank your mother-in-law properly."
"If it weren't for your mother-in-law helping you look after the children, you would have a real headache with three kids."
I heard that half of the salaries for the three nannies are paid by Lu's parents-in-law.
On the one hand, Yang Yuemei was amazed by the other person's generosity, and on the other hand, she thought the other person was nice. Whenever she was alone with Jiang Jiani, she would advise her to remember to be good to her mother-in-law.
After all, there are very few mothers-in-law in the world who are reasonable and don't argue much, let alone those who pay for a nanny.
Most mothers-in-law, even if they don't explicitly treat their daughters-in-law as enemies, will find fault with them in various ways.
She genuinely felt that Jiang Jianni had married into a good family, and cherished this in-law even more than Jiang Jianni did.
Jiang Jianni: "...I know, I'm not a child, I can tell whether someone is good or bad."
"Don't treat me like a child who doesn't understand social etiquette."
Yang Yuemei wanted to say something, but fearing that the girl might rebel, she could only suppress her urge to continue lecturing.
After settling the four children in, Yang Yuemei looked at their bedroom and sighed, "Your room has been turned into a bed."
To make it easier to take care of the child.
The original large bed was pushed against the wall, the two bedside tables were moved to the study, and a 1.2-meter bed was added.
One bed is 1.8 meters long and the other is 1.2 meters long; the beds together are three meters wide.
Fortunately, the room was spacious enough that even though the bed took up most of the space, there was still about 80 centimeters of space for everyone to move around, and it didn't prevent people from opening and closing the wardrobe to get things.
Jiang Jianni didn't think it was a good idea: "If I had known, I would have just made it into a tatami room from the beginning."
Since tatami mats were introduced to China, they have received both praise and criticism.
However, its advantages cannot be denied.
Not to mention the virtually unlimited storage space, in modern times where indoor spaces are getting smaller and smaller, tatami mats can really guarantee a sufficiently spacious sleeping area.
When Jiang Jiani was renovating her modern apartment, she specially installed a platform on the balcony.
Her favorite thing is to put a mat on the platform in the summer and sleep on the balcony, which is super comfortable.
Yang Yuemei blinked and asked, "What tatami?"
