"Mom, are you hungry? I'll cook quickly so we can eat."
"Let's do this together. We can't let you suffer alone. I promised Mo Bai that I would take good care of you. Although I can't stay here for too long, as long as I'm here, I won't let you suffer too much!"
"Then let's do it together!"
Shen Chunyan and her mother-in-law cooked three dishes and a soup. Shen Chunyan originally wanted to make more dishes, but her mother-in-law thought that it would be a waste if she made too much and couldn’t finish it. In addition, she didn’t want Shen Chunyan to be busy in the kitchen all the time, as it was too tiring!
The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law cooperated very well with each other. After dinner, the mother-in-law went to wash the dishes. She promised Li Mobai that she would take good care of Shen Chunyan, so she would definitely do what she said. Besides, it was just cooking and washing dishes. How tiring could it be? She didn't feel tired at all.
Shen Chunyan also felt that her mother-in-law was really nice. She started working right after she came and didn't act like a mother-in-law at all. She was very easy-going!
Li Chen insisted on sleeping with his grandmother at night, and Shen Chunyan agreed. It happened that they hadn't seen each other for a long time, so they could communicate and communicate their feelings!
"Li Chen, then you must sleep well and don't disturb grandma's sleep!"
"Mom, I know, don't worry!"
Shen Chunyan returned to her room. She felt that she and her mother-in-law should be able to get along very well during these days. She had also witnessed many days when conflicts between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law caused very upset situations. She felt that she and her mother-in-law would not have such problems!
The next morning, when Shen Chunyan got up, she found that her mother-in-law was not at home. It turned out that she had taken Li Chen out to buy breakfast. It seemed that her mother-in-law really wanted to come and take care of her. She didn't just talk about it, but expressed her attitude with practical actions!
After a while, mother-in-law and Li Chen came back and bought several kinds of food. After all, mother-in-law didn’t know what Shen Chunyan liked to eat, so she just bought a few things for her to choose!
"Chun Yan, you're up. Li Chen and I are going to buy breakfast. I've stayed here for a few days before, so I can still find some places!"
"Mom, look at you. You come to visit me, and I ask you to buy breakfast. This is so embarrassing!"
"What's there to be embarrassed about? You're pregnant, so it's normal for someone else to take care of you. If I weren't a soldier, I would definitely stay and take care of you. It's a pity that I'm a soldier, and sometimes I can't take such a long vacation. It would be great if I could retire in the future. After I retire, I can come and help you take care of the child, so you can have a lot more ease!"
Shen Chunyan nodded, "Yeah, okay!"
After dinner, the mother-in-law took out a small red envelope and handed it to Shen Chunyan!
"This is a gift from me, your father-in-law, and your grandfather to the child. We may not be able to take time off to come here when the child is born, so I'll give you the money for the child first!"
"Mom, we don't need money, we have money!"
"Your money is yours, and what we give is ours. Although our family is not rich, we can't let you be so nervous about giving birth. Take Chunyan!"
Chen Chunyan gratefully put the money handed to her by her mother-in-law into her own hands. She knew that the amount of money was not the most important thing. What was important was that someone was thinking about her and someone was caring about her children!
In fact, she feels that sometimes the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, conflicts between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, or other conflicts are not the most important thing. The most important thing is whether there is a caring heart!
My mother-in-law gave me money in advance because she was afraid that I wouldn’t be able to come when I gave birth. She felt that this was a kind of care and love!
"Then thank you, mom, and thank you, father-in-law, and thank you, grandpa!"
"Don't be polite. We're all family. Mom knows you're not short of money. Mo Bai also told us that you're very capable and can make a lot of money. But we're all family. How can we live with not giving you money for something as important as giving birth to a child? By the way, how is your relationship with your family now?"
"Except for my brother, I don't have any relationship with anyone else in my mother's family, so I won't invite them over when I give birth!"
When the mother-in-law heard Shen Chunyan say this, she felt a little distressed. For a woman, her parents' home is her foundation. The care of her parents' family, to some extent, will allow a woman to maintain a certain status in her husband's family!
Although her family would never have the idea of bullying their daughter-in-law, she still felt distressed when she heard Shen Chunyan say that her relationship with her parents' family was so bad!
"Chunyan, then just treat me as your real mother. If you have any problems, just tell me. Although I didn't give birth to you, I know you must have suffered a lot in the past!"
Shen Chunyan was really touched when she heard her mother-in-law say this!
"Mom, from now on, you are my real mom!"
"Hey, good boy, this time while I'm here, let's buy everything you need when you give birth, such as a small quilt, a small cushion, and small clothes. Let's buy them all together so that you and Mo Bai won't have any idea what to buy when I'm not around!"
"Okay, Mom, that's great, otherwise I really wouldn't know what to buy!"
Li Mobai knew that his mother would come over in the next few days, so he took advantage of his break to call Shen Chunyan!
"Hello, wife, I'm Li Mobai!"
"Well, I know. Are you wondering if your mother-in-law is here?"
Li Mobai smiled and said, "Yes, I remember Mom said she would come over in the next few days, but she hasn't confirmed the exact date!"
"I came here last night and have already stayed all night. Don't worry about anything at home!"
"Well, did Mom give you any money?"
"I gave it to you, what's wrong?"
"Nothing. I just heard from other comrades that the in-laws have to give money when the baby is born, so I wanted to remind my mother, but I forgot. I didn't expect her to remember it herself!"
Shen Chunyan didn't expect Li Mobai to be so supportive of her. Many men would think that asking for money from their mother-in-law is unfilial! Once their wives have such thoughts, they will be very angry!
"Don't you think it's unreasonable to ask for money from your mother-in-law?"
"Oh, what's unreasonable about that? My mom has always said that she doesn't have time to help us look after our children because she's a soldier. But she can help us pay for a nanny, so I think that's reasonable."
"Did grandma really say that? She's so thoughtful. Although we don't need her to pay, she did this, and I think she really cares about us."
Li Mobai nodded!
"Just tell my mom if you have anything to say. There's no need to hide it. My mom doesn't have any bad intentions. She's a soldier, and she likes to have everything out in the open!"
