The meal lasted until two o'clock in the afternoon, and everyone left the table reluctantly. By the time they left the table, the two brothers Su Aiguo and Su Aidang were already drunk to the point of being blurry-eyed. Father Wen looked similarly ill. Su Dalin had been drinking all his life, so he could hold his liquor better and looked the most sober.
When Su Aidang stood up, he almost stumbled. Fortunately, Su Congwu was quick to support his father and said, "Dad, be careful."
"This guy is really drunk." Zhang Xinlan said unhappily. If he fell here, it would be a huge disgrace for him.
It was still early, and it was a rare occasion for the two families to get together, so no one was in a hurry to go back. They sat in the living room chatting, waiting for the two brothers Su Aiguo and Su Aidang to sober up before leaving.
Several younger generations began to clean up the dishes on their own initiative. Of course, it was Su Congwu and Su Congjun who cleaned up.
Wu Shuhui wanted to help, but Zhang Xinlan pulled her to sit down. "Shuhui, don't go. From now on, let Congwu do all the laundry and cooking. The most important thing for you is to take care of your health."
This is her first grandson, so she has to be careful!
No, it could also be an older granddaughter. Zhang Xinlan frowned and thought about it, then turned to see Su Qingyun. She originally thought that a grandson was better than a granddaughter, but she was a bit patriarchal, so she instantly wiped away the previous thought in her mind. A granddaughter is also fine, a granddaughter is not bad either, she is not picky.
Su Qingyun also stood up. Although she did not do much work at home, she was still a guest at someone else's house. She couldn't be ignorant of etiquette and had to help out.
However, just as she picked up the first bowl, everyone stopped her in unison.
"Don't move!"
The sound almost scared Su Qingyun and his hands trembled.
"Yunyun, put the bowl down. Be careful not to drop it and hurt yourself." Wu Guixiang saw her shaking hands and looked nervous.
"That's right, Qingyun, put the bowl there and don't move it. Come and sit down. We don't need your help there." This was said by Wen's mother, and she looked disapproving.
Su Qingyun couldn't help but smile bitterly. She wasn't that fragile and precious. She could still do this.
"Yunyun, listen to your grandma. Go and rest and don't get involved." Su Congwu took the bowl from her hand and said seriously.
Qingyun's hands were not meant for such rough work. They should be used for writing, drawing, inventing, and solving math problems. If they were injured, he would be guilty of a great crime.
Su Congjun also said: "Yunyun, I really don't need your help. Your third brother and I can do it. Besides, this kitchen is too small and there is no room for three people."
"Okay then." Su Qingyun could only give up.
Seeing this, Wen Sisi thought for a moment and said to Su Qingyun, "Yunyun, come back to my room with me. I have something and I want your help."
"good."
Su Qingyun followed Wen Sisi into the room.
Seeing the two people enter the house, Li Xiulian remembered that she had forgotten to tell Wen's mother something. She quickly pulled Wen's mother and whispered, "Mother-in-law, I have something to tell you."
"What's the matter? Tell me." Wen's mother asked in confusion.
"Among the things we brought today, there are several tins of milk powder."
"Milk powder?" Mother Wen's eyes widened. "Where did you get the milk powder?"
Wen's mother is still worried about this. She can't find a way to get milk powder in the county. Where did her mother-in-law in the countryside get the milk powder, and several big cans? So much?
"It's not me. I don't have that ability. It's my uncle who is in the army and has connections. He got it for us." Li Xiu Lian did not hide it from her and said it directly.
"Uncle who is in the army?" Mother Wen looked at Su Aimin who was chatting with others with a surprised look in her eyes.
She has always had a deep impression of the younger uncle of the Su family. Although she has only met him a few times, she feels that he is different from the other two brothers of the Su family. He is a very smart person. This smartness does not refer to anything else, but that he seems to see more clearly in many things and is also a capable person.
It seems that she was right about the person, Mother Wen thought to herself.
"Yes." Li Xiu Lian nodded.
"Thank you so much, uncle. Mother-in-law, how much did it cost?" she asked Li Xiu Lian.
Li Xiulian shook her head. "Don't worry about the money. It's just a few cans of milk powder. As a dairy farmer, I can still afford it."
Before Wen's mother could continue, Li Xiulian said, "I want to tell you, isn't Sisi going to give birth in the next two days? I'm afraid I won't be there and won't be able to make it, so I want to tell you in advance. There's a spoon in the milk powder can. When making milk, add one spoonful of milk powder to the small spoon we used to fill the soup and one spoonful of water. That's about it. The water can't be too hot. Also..."
Li Xiu Lian instructed Wen's mother on every detail, and these were all things he asked Su Aimin on the way here.
Mother Wen listened carefully and said, "Okay, I'll remember it all."
"Mother-in-law, thank you so much." Mother Wen didn't know what to say. As a mother-in-law, she really worried about this child.
Moreover, she not only cares about the children, but also cares about Sisi's health. She comes to the county to see her every few days, brings her nourishing things, and always asks Congjun to take good care of Sisi. Mother Wen feels warmed to meet such a good mother-in-law.
What is even more commendable is that Li Xiu Lian, the mother-in-law, has never said in front of Wen Sisi or herself that she hopes Sisi will give birth to a boy. She does not favor boys over girls and is not partial. To be honest, Wen's mother breathed a sigh of relief and felt more and more that her daughter had really married into a good family.
"Why are you thanking me?" Li Xiulian said angrily, "This is what I, as a nurse, should do."
"Anyway, if I can't make it in time, please take care of me."
Mother Wen nodded and said, "Of course, I am also a grandmother."
Both of their families have only one child, Congjun and Sisi. Now, the two young people's children are about to be born. Naturally, the parents on both sides put all their energy on their children.
The two of them couldn't help but smile as they imagined the scene when their child was born.
In the room.
"What's the matter, Sister Sisi?" Su Qingyun asked Wen Sisi, confused.
"Qingyun." Wen Sisi looked at her and said a little embarrassedly, "Isn't my child about to be born? Your eldest brother and I have tried several names for the child, but none of them seem suitable. So, I want you, as an aunt, to help choose a good name."
Naming? Su Qingyun was stunned and hesitated. "Sister Sisi, I have never chosen a name before. Besides, it would be inappropriate for me to choose the name, right?"
There are so many parents on both sides, how could it be her turn to choose a name?
