Chapter 216 Taking Care of Postpartum Women (Part 4)
Her eyes reddened, and she said with a mix of grievance and anger, "I only gave birth two days ago, and now nobody in this family cares about me. I've given your Chen family such a chubby grandson, and instead of showing any appreciation for my contribution, nobody even acknowledges me!"
Chen Jianye knew she was upset, so he went along with her words: "Yes, my wife deserves the most credit. I'll go and discipline Xiaobao later. How can you leave you and the child at home while you go out to play?"
"What does this have to do with Xiaobao?!"
Li Chunhua suddenly stopped crying: "Taking care of women and children is a girl's job! It's all that brat's and Sanni's fault for being so inconsiderate. I just gave birth, and they didn't even come to take care of my own mother and younger brother!"
As she spoke, she reached out and touched Chen Jianye again: "Go and tell Mom to call my baby over to take care of me during my postpartum period."
These days, which family doesn't have a girl helping to take care of her younger siblings?
When she was less than three years old, she was already helping her younger siblings wash diapers.
This is a good opportunity to teach this brat a lesson and see if she dares to disregard me again!
Upon hearing this, Chen Jianye looked at her with an expression as if she were an idiot and said, "You know perfectly well that Guabao is my lifeblood, so why would I agree to let Guabao take care of you during your postpartum period?! And don't forget, Guabao has already been adopted by the fourth son, so she's no longer your daughter."
He thinks his wife has gone crazy from childbirth and hasn't come to her senses yet.
Li Chunhua was speechless. Even though she knew in her heart that the possibility was slim, couldn't she at least think about it?
So he compromised and said, "How about Sanni? It's only natural for a daughter to serve her mother. Otherwise, why did I give birth to her?"
That brat is one thing, but she's not even her daughter anymore.
But Sanni had to take care of her during her postpartum period!
Chen Jianye frowned and said, "But Sanni has to go to the fields to help with the work."
Sanni was considered a member of the workforce in the rice harvest.
Upon hearing this, tears streamed down Li Chunhua's face again. "What am I supposed to do? You're all busy out there, and you don't care whether I live or die?! How can you be so heartless? I just gave birth to your big, healthy son!"
"There's nothing we can do about it. Why did you have to give birth at this time? We're too busy with farm work."
Chen Jianye was also helpless, "Let Xiaobao take care of you. He's all grown up now, he can still serve you food and water."
Li Chunhua persisted, saying, "Can I control having a baby? Xiao Bao'er is so young, and he's a boy. You're willing to let him do chores, but I'm not willing to make him do anything!"
Chen Jianye's head ached from her crying. "Then what do you want?"
Li Chunhua wiped away her tears and said firmly, "Just go and tell Mom that I can't take care of Jinbao because of my current health condition, and I need an older child to help change diapers and such. Mom will definitely agree."
"Okay, okay, I'll go talk to them. Don't cry."
So Chen Jianye went to Ma Xiulian and cautiously said, "Mom, Chunhua just gave birth and is lying in bed unable to move. Jinbao has no one to change his diapers. Why don't you let Sanni take care of her?"
Upon hearing this, Ma Xiulian immediately turned pale and yelled, "Don't you even know what time it is?! You expect someone to take care of you during your postpartum period! You think you're the boss just because you had a baby! You have hands and feet, can't you change your own diapers?"
