Chapter 682: Strengthening the Husband's Leadership
So gradually, the neighbors who came over were no longer keen on pestering Lu Miao with nonsense.
Most of them are having a hot affair with Tang Mei.
No matter what they said or how long they talked, Lu Miao did not interrupt.
After all, Tang Mei is not a machine.
In addition to taking care of the children, she should also have her own social circle.
But there was one thing Lu Miao had told Tang Mei a long time ago.
It's about the children.
It is okay for people from outside to come in and see the children, but they are not allowed to touch them.
Especially since Yangyang is still young, he is usually placed in the swing cradle in the main room.
Children have weak resistance, and the alleys are full of people, so it is difficult to ensure that everyone washes their hands frequently and maintains hygiene.
It would be bad if the child were to be exposed to bacteria and develop some disease.
Then there are three other older children.
Lu Miao asked Tang Mei to be careful and try to keep the children away when someone comes to visit, and not to say anything in front of the children without any reservations.
Another thing is that no matter whether the child is young or old, as long as the child is a boy, he should not be left alone with others.
Don’t think you are safe just because you are at home. You have to put your work aside and focus on your children.
Tang Mei felt that Lu Miao was making a big deal out of nothing, but then she thought again, up to this point, the couple's predictions never seemed to go wrong.
Another thing is that it is always good to be more careful and cautious in everything.
Tang Mei nodded in agreement.
Regardless of gender or age, Lu Miao also privately told several children from a young age:
Except for parents and grandparents at home who help you bathe and wipe your butt, there are some parts of your body that no one else is allowed to touch.
If you encounter someone doing something wrong, call for help if there is someone around, and come back and tell your parents if there is no one around.
Among the three little ones, only Shi An nodded in response.
The other two little ones are just confused and forgetful.
Lu Miao sighed when he saw it, but he was not in a hurry.
I will teach you slowly later.
Just say it when you think of it, and you will always remember it.
Lu Miao touched the heads of the three children one by one, and heard the sound of a bicycle in the yard.
Fu Jingyou came back from the electromechanical factory with a bag of fruit in his hand.
When the weather was cold before, the only fruits we had were strawberries grown at home.
Now that the weather is getting very hot, it’s difficult to grow strawberries, but at least the fruit stalls in the market have reopened.
Lu Miao stood up.
Fu Jingyou went into the house and put down the fruit. He first went to the swing to look at Xiaobao, then turned around and touched the other three.
After washing the sweat off his arms and face by pumping water from the well, Fu Jingyou came back, bent over, picked up his soft and adorable daughter, and said:
"I have to go back to my hometown during the holidays."
Lu Miao said worriedly, "The older one is a bit more mature, but the younger one is still so young, how will he cope on the road?"
"I'll just go back."
Fu Jingyou shook his head, put Erbao down, and went to the kitchen to get a kitchen knife to peel apples for the big one and the small three.
"I just came back from the factory. They said the exam for the Yuhong class will be on July 6th. We have Shi'an's household registration page, but we were in a hurry to get out, so Dabao and Erbao's household registrations haven't been issued yet."
"In the second half of the year, Ansheng Primary School will begin. Our eldest and second child will be five years old, and it's time for them to start the Yuhong class."
After hearing this, Lu Miao understood that he had to go back this time.
But she asked again: "Is it impossible to register my household registration across provinces? Have you checked with the public security department? Can't they issue a certificate of acceptance?"
Fu Jingyou shook his head: "I've asked everyone, and the apples were bought from that place."
Lu Miao nodded.
There's nothing we can do about it.
For children to go to school, household registration is a necessity, so I have to go back and get it.
Fortunately, there was no restriction on household registration area at that time.
Otherwise, going to school would be a hassle...
"Then let's go back! We didn't go back during the Chinese New Year, so this time we can go see how Uncle and Aunt are doing."
Lu Miao lowered his head and thought for a moment, then said:
"Isn't it time for Uncle to finish the medicine I sent you last time? Find some time to go to Tong Ren Tang to get some more. Then take him to the nearest large hospital for another checkup."
She kept on rambling and giving instructions.
Fu Jingyou's eyes softened after hearing this. He cut the first apple and handed it to her:
"I know everything, don't worry about it."
"How can this be called worrying?"
Lu Miao took a bite of the apple and glanced at him sideways, then thought of something and said:
"Ask Mei Zi to come over when you have time. I need to talk to her about something."
Fu Jingyou gave Mei Zi extra money because he was worried that Lu Miao would not be able to stay idle during the confinement period.
I let Mei Zi buy her own food and cook, and I haven't let her come over for a while.
Fu Jingyou disagreed, shook his head, and gave a small piece of apple to his daughter, then to Dabao and Shian.
"Put other things aside for now and talk about it after I'm out of confinement."
"It's almost been a month!"
"Then we'll talk about it when we get there."
"Why are you like this!? I still want to go to school!"
"There's no rush for school, just take good care of yourself first."
Fu Jingyou cut off a small piece of apple and blocked her mouth:
"I asked at the hospital before, and the doctor said that the best time to spend the full 42 days in confinement is."
"Don't be disobedient. You've already played tricks on me several times regarding Old Four. If you continue like this, you'll lose your credibility with me."
Fu Jingyou's expression remained peaceful and relaxed, but his tone was unusually unyielding, leaving no room for negotiation: "If you don't obey me this time, I won't discuss anything with you in the future."
Seeing that he was serious, Lu Miao's arrogance suddenly withered, and he muttered unhappily:
"Isn't this just talk? Look at you, you're exaggerating... Besides, according to what you're saying, by the time the school exam comes around, I still won't be out of my 42-day confinement period!"
"You can go for the exam if you cover yourself up for two days. Then you can continue to lie down peacefully when you come back. Besides, I'm here to support my husband. How can I be so serious?"
Lu Miao snorted and ignored him.
He pretended to emphasize, but in fact he was joking seriously, and continued:
"Not only do I need to strengthen my husband's responsibilities, but I also need to let you know who the real head of this family is."
Lu Miao was indeed amused by him, and glanced at him with a chuckle:
"Yes~ You're the head of the family, so impressive! Who can compare to you? I've never seen a head of a family so enthusiastic about preparing footbath water and washing his wife's feet! Tell me, are you the first person in history to do so?"
The two of them chatted and joked, but the children were so focused on eating their apples that they didn't pay any attention to what they were saying.
Suddenly, a dark shadow came over the door, and Liu Wenpei stood there awkwardly:
"I-Is it a bit of a bad time for me to come here? Am I disturbing you?"
Lu Miao smiled and stood up. "No, you're just in time. Sit down and talk."
Fu Jingyou raised his chin, led the children to sit at the small table, and continued to peel apples for them.
There was fruit at home, so Lu Miao washed some and served them to Liu Wenpei:
"What's the matter? Why didn't you wait until the afternoon sun had a break before coming over?"
"Anyway, we live nearby, so it's only two steps away and we won't get sunburned... In the past, during this season, I would stay at home and follow my parents, brothers and sisters-in-law to the fields."
