Chapter 67 When I Go Back, I Will Sleep in a Separate Bed from Your Dad
As soon as Chen Cuijuan came, she wanted to take over all the housework.
As I get older, I sleep less.
Especially since Shen Dahe's snoring was so loud, Chen Cuijuan sometimes had to wake up two or three times a night.
Once I wake up in the middle of the night, it is difficult to fall asleep again.
Shen Dahe's snoring was so loud that sometimes it was really annoying, so Chen Cuijuan simply kicked Shen Dahe to wake him up, and then he would quiet down.
As a result, before he was quiet for a few minutes, Shen Dahe fell asleep again and continued to snore.
When Chen Cuijuan complained about this to her old sisters in the village, she found that everyone was like this and there seemed to be nothing they could do.
Some people even started to compare with each other for no apparent reason, boasting that their men snored the loudest.
Although Chen Cuijuan didn't understand at the time, she didn't say anything as they were old sisters who had known each other for decades.
But last night, Chen Cuijuan slept alone, and it was so comfortable.
She sleeps alone in such a big bed.
The key is that there is no smelly, snoring old man next to you.
When I woke up in the morning, my daughter was by my side again. I felt refreshed, as if I had been given an injection of chicken blood.
When Gu Ye and Shen Zhiyou got up, they found the house completely new.
Even the feathers on the two chickens in the yard looked like they had been washed.
Seeing them getting up, Chen Cuijuan smiled and opened the door: "Why are you all up? Did mom disturb you?"
Not really.
Like most country people, Chen Cuijuan has a loud voice.
But she did everything with caution.
This was all because Shen Zhiyou had a poor health when she was a child. Every time she was woken up from her sleep, she would cry and gasp for breath. This scared Chen Cuijuan and Shen Dahe, the two rough girls, so much that they didn't even dare to make any noise while drinking tea, for fear of disturbing their daughter.
"No, Mom, are you used to sleeping like that last night?"
Breakfast is ready in the kitchen.
A pot of sweet potato porridge, a plate of omelet, two boiled eggs and one boiled goose egg.
The goose egg was brought by Chen Cuijuan from home, and it was almost bigger than Shen Zhiyou's fist.
She had no appetite just by looking at it, but Chen Cuijuan said that eating goose eggs could relieve fetal heat, so Shen Zhiyou reluctantly broke them into pieces and put them into the porridge.
Hearing her daughter's question, Chen Cuijuan said without thinking: "Well, what's there to be unaccustomed to? Mom has never slept so well before. It's so comfortable to sleep alone. The first thing I will do when I get home is to sleep in a separate room from your dad!"
Shen Zhiyou: “….” Ahem, I suddenly felt a little sorry for Dad.
When Gu Ye heard his mother-in-law's words, he subconsciously looked at his wife.
The daughter-in-law is very similar to the mother-in-law in many ways.
He must not let Youyou have such thoughts!
In a village nine hundred kilometers away.
The day after Chen Cuijuan left, the entire Shen family felt like they had lost their backbone, and everything went wrong.
Especially Shen Dahe, he felt the most uneasy and couldn't sleep well at night.
Breakfast was made by the eldest son's wife.
The eldest son's wife is stingy. She always thinks that cooking by herself after her mother-in-law is gone means she is the head of the family. She is so stingy that there are very few sweet potatoes and rice in a pot of porridge.
Shen Dahe drank a mouthful of porridge and suddenly sneezed twice.
Shen Guowang: "Dad, someone is scolding you. Is it Mom who is scolding you?"
Shen Dahe was choked by his own son and almost fell over, "What bullshit, why did your mother scold me?"
Shen Guowang glanced at his father silently.
I feel his father is even more clueless than his sister.
Doesn’t he know why his mother scolded him?
However, Shen Guoqiang didn't dare to say this, for fear that his father would beat him.
It was bad enough that his daughter had gone to join the army, and now his wife had to go take care of his daughter, leaving only these two brats at home. The more Shen Dahe looked at them, the more disgusted he felt.
He sighed, "No more eating, let's go to work."
Usually, my father-in-law would eat two bowls of rice, but today he only ate one bowl. Wang Xiulan was very worried: "Is my cooking not delicious?"
Tiedan nodded vigorously: "Mom, it's too disgusting. I miss my grandma."
Wang Xiulan: “….”
Chen Cuijuan hadn't gone to work for two days in a row. Upon asking, I found out that she had gone to take care of Shen Zhiyou.
It seems that everyone doesn't need to feel strange about this matter.
After all, Chen Cuijuan has had a problem with her brain for a long time.
Now leaving her husband, son and grandson behind to take care of her daughter is indeed something she can do.
But then someone ran up to Gu's mother and asked, "Jian Guo, your second son's wife is about to give birth. I heard she's pregnant with twins. Why don't you go and take a look?"
Mother Gu’s face froze.
She and Chen Cuijuan received the letter from Shen Zhiyou at the same time.
She also knew that twins usually went into labor early, but she didn't really want to go.
Taking care of someone during confinement is not a good thing. To put it bluntly, it's just like being a servant in the old society.
I have to take care of the children at night and can't get a good rest at all.
I took care of Jin Fengyan during her confinement because the eldest couple would definitely provide for me in my old age.
She has to take good care of Jin Fengyan now, and when she can't walk anymore in the future, she will have to rely on the eldest couple.
The second one is different.
She's so far away, and still expects that delicate girl Shen Zhiyou to come back and take care of her in her old age?
Since the effort and reward were not equal, Gu's mother naturally didn't want to go.
Besides, the second son's wife is very delicate, and she didn't know how much trouble she would have to endure while taking care of her during the confinement period. So she didn't take any action after receiving the letter, and planned to put it off until the child was older before going to see him.
Who would have known that Chen Cuijuan would not play by the rules. The letter arrived the day before yesterday, but she ran away yesterday!
Mother Gu forced a smile: "I want to go too, but I'm thinking that someone else has gone there, and Jinfeng is pregnant now. I can't leave home. I'll go after Cuijuan comes back."
Everyone smiled and praised her for being thoughtful, but they actually knew everything.
Take Gu's mother for example. She is better than anyone else at putting on a good show. She mentions Gu Ye every day. If you don't know her, you would think that among her three sons, Gu Ye is the one she loves best.
But the more you deal with her, the more you realize how hypocritical she is.
It's okay to be biased, who isn't biased? But she just wants to save face.
Now that both daughters-in-law are pregnant, the difference is apparent.
Jin Fengyan's pregnancy is only a few months old, so it's still a long way to go before she gives birth.
Besides, Jin Fengyan had already given birth to two children, so she was familiar with the process of having a third child and there was nothing to worry about.
On the contrary, Gu Ye and his wife are about to give birth to their first child, twins.
If all three sons are equally important, then I should take care of Shen Zhiyou now.
Some people deliberately made Gu's mother feel uncomfortable, saying, "Chen Cuijuan is smart. The second son is now an officer, and Youyou is a teacher. They are both making money. I don't know how much money she can make if she goes to take care of him. You are stupid too."
And now that the other person's mother has gone and you don't go, what will the second son think? Maybe he feels that his own mother is not as good as his mother-in-law?"
When Mother Gu heard this, she could no longer sit still.
Yes, Chen Cuijuan is also a good actress. Together with Shen Zhiyou, the mother and daughter are trying to please the Second Brother. If the Second Brother really treats his wife's family more closely than his own family as they say, then it would be terrible!
