Chapter 85 I Just Think My Mom Has a Hard Time

When Gu Ye walked to the gate of the station and saw Gu's mother, he was stunned for a moment, "Mom, why are you here?"

The guard on duty was also stunned when he heard Gu Ye say this, "It's really Captain Gu's mother, I thought..."

I thought Chen Cuijuan was Captain Gu’s biological mother.

After all, Chen Cuijuan has been here for several months. Isn't it usually the man's parents who come to take care of their grandson?

how........

The guard didn't say this out loud, but Gu's mother and Gu Ye knew what he meant.

Mother Gu's expression changed, but she soon smiled kindly, as if she didn't hear the hidden meaning:

"Yeah, does our Gu Ye have two mothers? Haha, but then again, your mother-in-law has been here for quite a while, right? They say a son-in-law is half a son. I feel relieved that your mother-in-law is here, and I really have to thank you for taking care of you."

Gu Ye: "I do want to thank you. You said you would come to take care of Youyou during her confinement. You had already cleaned up the room but you didn't come. If mom hadn't received the letter and rushed over immediately, Youyou and I wouldn't know what we would do."

Mother Gu was a little embarrassed and forced a smile: "I was held up by family matters. I came here as soon as I had time."

Gu Ye: "Didn't you say that you couldn't come because your sister-in-law was pregnant? Now you're suddenly free. Did your sister-in-law give birth before Youyou?"

Originally, Gu Ye didn't want to make it so clear.

But every word that Gu's mother said was an insult to Chen's mother, and Gu Ye didn't want to endure it any longer.

Mother Gu: ".......Are you blaming mom?"

Gu Ye said nothing and agreed.

Mother Gu sighed and said that it was not easy for her at home either. Her sister-in-law was overbearing. She said she had a stomachache one moment and the baby was unstable the next. There was nothing she could do.

I looked up and noticed the dark circles under his eyes. I took the opportunity to change the subject and said casually, "You haven't had a good rest recently. It's not easy to take care of the children. I couldn't leave either. So I came here as soon as I had time."

"By the way, how is the child? Your elder brother and sister-in-law are worried about him."

Along the way, Gu's mother was always concerned about Gu Ye and Shen Zhiyou. Anyone who saw her would know that she was a good mother.

When they got home, Chen Cuijuan and Shen Zhiyou were getting water to give the child a bath.

The bathtub that Gu Ye had made before was big and deep, and could accommodate both him and Shen Zhiyou to take a bath in it.

It definitely wouldn’t work for children, so I made a smaller version of the bath tub.

Just right for newborns.

Tuantuan and Yuanyuan were being bathed by their mother and grandmother. It was so novel that their hands and feet were moving around unconsciously.

The soft little body looks closely at its mother while playing.

Shen Zhiyou was so happy.

In the first month after they were born, the two children slept for more than 20 hours out of 24 hours a day.

The rest of the time I'm either eating or defecating.

Now I’m finally feeling better. Although I still spend most of the time sleeping, at least I can play for a while.

Shen Zhiyou and Chen Cuijuan both cherished the time when their two children were awake. They squatted on the ground to help them bathe, and they didn't even care about the fact that their skirts were wet and covered with mud when they dragged on the ground.

This was the scene that Gu's mother saw when she walked into the yard.

My daughter-in-law, whom I hadn't seen for more than a year, was wearing a goose yellow dress. She had fair skin and rosy complexion, and looked even more beautiful than before we got married.

She looks so good right after giving birth, it's obvious that she has used a lot of good things.

And that mother-in-law.

He was also wearing a new set of clothes, a gray-blue top and pants, a complete set, and the fabric was obviously new.

Chen Cuijuan used to work in the fields every day like her, and like all rural women, she was dark and thin.

But it has only been a short time since she arrived, and Chen Cuijuan has already seen it heal.

Mother Gu pursed her lips, looked at Shen Zhiyou, Chen Cuijuan and the furnishings in the yard calmly, and said with a smile: "Are you giving the child a bath?"

Shen Zhiyou almost thought she had heard it wrong.

When I turned around, it turned out to be Gu Ye's mother.

I haven't gotten along well with this mother-in-law since we got married.

It has been almost a year and a half since they last saw each other. Shen Zhiyou opened her mouth and called out "Mom", her tone a little unnatural.

But after calling out, the following words came naturally, "Now that you're here, why didn't you send a letter or call in advance so that Gu Ye and I can pick you up at the station."

"I came here because I missed my child. I don't have time to care about so many things."

He added: "I am not a stranger, so there is no need to be so polite."

"Oh, my dear, I'm still giving the child a bath. I'm really sorry to bother you during this period. It must be hard to take care of a child. You look a lot more haggard. I really want to thank you on behalf of our Gu Ye.

I have no choice. My eldest daughter-in-law is pregnant and I am busy in the fields. I can't leave. Now I finally have time to come and see Youyou and the child. You can also take a break, my dear."

Mother Gu acted like a hostess, as if Chen Cuijuan was an outsider who came to help.

Sensing that the visitor had bad intentions, Shen Zhiyou pursed her lips, and the smile on her face faded a lot. "My mother is really having a hard time. She has to take care of me during my confinement and two children. She is too busy. I thought you would come, but you suddenly said you couldn't come. My mother had to handle it all by herself. If my mother hadn't rushed over immediately, I don't know where I would be now."

"Oh, it's not the job of a mother to take care of her own children and grandchildren."

I don’t even understand my own daughter.

When Chen Cuijuan heard this, she knew that her daughter was angry.

But this is her mother-in-law, and also Gu Ye’s biological mother and the grandmother of her children.

She had just given birth to a child, how could she start arguing with her mother-in-law just by looking at her?

Even if we really have to argue, we can't let my daughter be the bad guy.

Chen Cuijuan picked up the children quickly and wrapped them in large gauze, saying as she worked:

"My dear, you must be tired and hungry after sitting in the car all day. Sit down and take a rest. Xiao Gu, take the kids in and dress them. Feed them and coax them to sleep. Youyou, your skirt is wet too. Go in and change your clothes. I'll go make dinner."

"good."

Neither Shen Zhiyou nor Gu Ye had any experience in taking care of children.

These days, Chen Cuijuan basically taught me how to feed and bathe the baby.

When it comes to children's affairs, Gu Ye and Shen Zhiyou basically listen to Chen Cuijuan.

As soon as she said that, the new parents took the child into the house as she said.

Just this one sentence and Gu Ye's reaction made the behavior of those hostesses just now by Gu's mother a joke.

Leaving Gu's mother alone in the yard.

He suppressed his dissatisfaction, walked into the house and looked around.

The beautiful brick house and smooth concrete floor were even more beautiful and grand than the new house they had built for Gu Ye in the countryside.

The house is bright and spacious. Although the furnishings in the main room look old, they are all complete. There is even a radio on the chest of drawers in the living room.

Looking up further, there is a framed photo, a photo of Gu Ye and Shen Zhiyou.

The yard was filled with clothes hanging out to dry.

Diapers and clothes for the two children accounted for most of the space.

For such a young child, all his clothes are new.

Mother Gu took a step forward and touched the diaper, and a look of dissatisfaction instantly appeared on her face.

The fabric is so soft, it’s actually new!

They must be crazy to use new cloth to make diapers for their children. They have no place to spend their money and cloth coupons!

In the room, Shen Zhiyou's face didn't look very good either.

I don’t know if it was because of her bad mood, but after feeding Tuantuan, her milk was not enough.

After putting on her clothes, she told Gu Ye to turn around and said, "No more. Make some milk powder for Yuanyuan to drink. Feed Yuanyuan first at night."

"good."

Just now when my wife spoke, she was still very delicate and cute. Now, although she still speaks softly, her tone has become much calmer.

Gu Ye didn't know why, but he suddenly felt guilty and a little ashamed.

"Youyou, I didn't know mom was coming here today."

"I know."

This matter had nothing to do with Gu Ye. She just didn’t like what Gu’s mother had just said to Chen’s mother.

What did she mean by troubling her mother during this period of time, and she also thanked her on behalf of Gu Ye.

Of course she has to thank her. Her mother has been here for the past few months and has not only taken care of her and the child, but everyone can see how good she is to Gu Ye.

Although this child was hers and not given to her mother-in-law, no matter whether it was in the Tuanjie Commune or the family compound, it was her mother-in-law who would take care of the child.

Now that I have just finished my confinement, my mother comes to visit me. We all know what she is thinking.

Shen Zhiyou really didn't want to speculate about Gu Ye's mother with bad thoughts. She also knew that Gu Ye had a hard time and he was very good to her and Chen Cuijuan.

So for all this time, she had never asked Gu Ye why his mother didn't come.

But she was still heartbroken, especially since her mother had just tried to smooth things over for her.

If it were in the past, she would have cursed back, but she took Gu Ye into consideration, and she also knew that this man would only respond to soft words and not hard ones.

Shen Zhiyou blinked to suppress her anger, blinked again, tears fell, and the moment the man noticed, she quickly lowered her head and said, "I just think my mother has a hard time."
