Chapter 217 Wit

If Jiang Weiguo had asked his mother to stay at his house for a few days normally, it would be normal and no one would think too much about it, and he would not feel guilty or embarrassed.

But now that his mother has to take care of his eldest sister-in-law after the baby is born, it would be a bit unkind for him to let his mother go and live there.

Jiang Weiguo is not unwilling to be filial to his mother, but he lives at his father-in-law's house and he can't take his mother to live there. At most, he can just give her money as a tribute.

But his mother lives with his eldest brother, who has a high salary and is not short of food and drink, so his mother naturally doesn't need that much .

In fact, Mrs. Jiang didn't think much about it, she just asked very objectively.

Should she go there to help take care of the children or to serve her son and mother-in-law?

These are different things, and naturally there are different requirements.

The youngest son has three children, the eldest is a boy who is 7 years old this year, the second is a daughter who is 5 years old, and the third is a boy who is only 3 years old.

It is not impossible for her to go over and help take care of them for a few days, cook for them, take care of the children, and pick them up from the nursery.

If she wants to take care of her mother-in-law, then... Although Mrs. Jiang is not very happy, she can help if they are really in trouble.

After all, even if the neighbors are in trouble and no one is there to take care of them, she will go to help cook or something.

At this age, she has taken care of many neighbors and relatives.

But when it comes to taking care of people, she is kind-hearted and well-intentioned. Most people are grateful, but there are also a few people who are grateful at first, picky and complain in the middle, and finally accuse her of not taking care of people wholeheartedly.

Not only was that ungrateful person ungrateful, but after recovering, he also said bad things about her to others, such as "seeking fame", "coming to my house to do nothing but eat", "not really taking care of people at all", etc., which made Mrs. Jiang very angry, so she was not willing to take care of people when she was older.

Especially the mother-in-law of her youngest son was the kind of person who was picky and particular.

The first time she went to her youngest son's mother-in-law's house, she was so uneasy that she felt like she didn't know where to put her hands and feet.

Although the in-laws were always smiling and talking in a friendly manner, their attitude towards you was superior and very friendly.

Mrs. Jiang didn't like to go there. Except for giving her youngest daughter-in-law and children delicious food and toys, she would not visit them unless there was something else.

That's what Mrs. Jiang asked, but Jiang Weiguo thought too much, mainly because he felt guilty.

Yes, my mother and eldest brother provided for him, but he didn't give anything in return, and he had to be a filial son to his father-in-law. He couldn't take my mother to live with him in turn, and... he didn't give her much money. He

didn't take my mother to live with him normally, but now that his mother-in-law was sick, he wanted her to cook, take care of the children, and take care of his mother-in-law.

Who would believe him if he said it wasn't true?

Besides, it would be fine if he asked his mother to come and take care of her for a few days. When my wife gave birth to her third child, my mother went to take care of her from time to time. But now that my eldest sister-in-law had just given birth, she needed someone to take care of her. He felt embarrassed to take my mother away himself. He couldn't do such a shameless thing.

He still had some shame.

He said, "No, no, mother, the children are grown, so why should you take care of them? My mother-in-law is okay, Yuanyuan and I take turns taking care of them."

He didn't open his mouth and asked his mother to help take care of his mother-in-law.

Mrs. Jiang frowned. Normally, she would have to take the initiative to help, but now Lin Xia is in confinement. Even if her mother-in-law and sisters are here, that's not a reason for her to leave her alone, right?

I came here to accompany Lin Xia, not to take over her and free her up to serve the second daughter-in-law's biological mother.

Mrs. Jiang understands this very well.

Since her youngest son didn't ask her to take care of him, she just pretended that he couldn't leave and didn't take the initiative to raise the issue.

"Your sister-in-law is in confinement after childbirth, so I can't leave."

Jiang Weiguo turned his tongue around what his daughter-in-law said, but he didn't have the nerve to ask his mother to take care of his mother-in-law. After sitting for a while, he hesitated, and took out ten yuan from his pocket to give to Mrs. Jiang.

Mrs. Jiang: "Your mother-in-law just got sick and the family is in need of money, so you don't have to give me. I follow your eldest brother and sister-in-law, and they are willing to spend their wages on me, so you don't have to give me."

At first, she would accept the money her son gave her, thinking that she would save it to buy clothes and food for the children, but the younger daughter-in-law found an opportunity to teach her a lesson as a mother-in-law.

In the end, her son took advantage of her family, being appreciated by her parents, she was so outstanding, living in her parents' house, the betrothal gift he gave was not much, etc. Although she didn't say it clearly, how could Mrs. Jiang not understand what she meant?

She just wanted her mother-in-law to understand that her son was like a gift, so she shouldn't expect her son and his wife to give her more money to serve her.

She naturally didn't want to cause a conflict between her son and his wife. If

her son gave her money again, she would not take it. Once she refused it a little later, and her daughter-in-law smiled and said, "You are really showing off. How can you not spend money on your big brother with such a high salary? I am afraid that I have more money than the two of us put together." What

else could she say? Of course, she didn't want a penny.

Jiang Weiguo was a little embarrassed when he saw that his mother didn't want his money, "Mom, you are like this every time. You don't want the money even if I give it to you. People will say that I am unfilial to you and don't want to spend money on you."

Mrs. Jiang's face was stern, "Who said that? Tell me and I will scold him."

Seeing that it was almost time, Lin Shu went to the kitchen with her eldest sister to cook. Lin Xia heard that her brother-in-law and mother-in-law were quarreling, so she pretended that she knew nothing and came out to say a few words with a smile.

Jiang Weiguo looked at the room full of women and his eldest sister-in-law's family, and felt more and more uncomfortable.

He sighed in his heart, knowing that his mother had a hard time and was wronged.

Lin Xia chatted with him for a few words, but he was not very enthusiastic.

Lin Xia invited him to have dinner, but he said he had something else to do and got up to leave.

Lin Xia wanted to keep him, but Mrs. Jiang said, "He's busy, let him be busy."

Mrs. Jiang sent her youngest son out, and Panpan, Tiantian and the other two came back from outside. They had just seen that there were guests at home, so they turned around and played with people at the gate of the yard.

They had friends in the steel mill, and even the little soldiers came to them.

Jiang Weiguo sighed again in his heart. The eldest sister-in-law just gave birth to a daughter, and she took her mother, two sisters, and four children to eat and drink. The eldest brother and mother... it was too difficult.

He saw that the pockets of several children were bulging, and one child even took out candy and stuffed it into his mouth. They were all expensive sorghum candy or White Rabbit.

Panpan looked at him, was his second uncle's brother eating their candies?

He took out one...two pieces of candy from his pocket and asked tentatively: "Uncle, do you want some candy?"

Jiang Weiguo shook his head, "No, you guys eat it."

Panpan quickly put his hand back into his pocket.

Jiang Weiguo felt a little upset, so he went to the office building to talk to his eldest brother.

It happened that Jiang Weidong came out of the meeting, and thought that he had nothing to do downstairs, so he went home to hug his daughter. His mother-in-law and his eldest aunt and younger sister-in-law were there, so he was embarrassed to hug his wife openly.

Even so, he rushed home every day, rushed to wash diapers and swaddling clothes for his daughter, and helped his wife wash clothes and socks.

His wife suffered so much when giving birth, and he couldn't suffer for her. He didn't know how to express his sympathy. Salaries and other things had to be paid, and saying that he felt sorry for her because she worked so hard seemed frivolous, so he tried his best to find work.

He didn't think that his mother-in-law and two sisters were just here to take care of her during the confinement period. They just had to accompany Lin Xia and talk happily. How embarrassing it would be to ask them to work?

When he went to his mother-in-law and his third sister's house, they didn't ask him to do anything. They just asked him to rest and arranged for someone to chat with him while they waited for dinner.

Thinking of the little lady's white, tender, and soft face, Jiang Weidong became happy as he walked. His steps were big to begin with, and now they became even faster.

Turning a corner, he almost bumped into Jiang Weiguo.

Jiang Weidong was surprised and said, "Weiguo? Why are you here?"

He called his brother the day he came back from the hospital, but his brother didn't say he was coming to congratulate him.

Jiang Weiguo looked honest and had a bit of resentment in his eyes, "Brother."

Jiang Weidong called him, "Let's go home and talk, and have a couple of drinks at noon."

Jiang Weiguo stood still, "Brother, forget it, I have something to do at home, I have to go back."

Jiang Weidong is not the kind of person who will listen to the opposite. He said no but actually wanted it, and said he was not angry but actually was angry. He was too lazy to guess what was going on.

"Okay, I'll take you out."

Jiang Weiguo felt more and more depressed. He said something happened at home, but his brother didn't ask what it was?

After walking for a while, Jiang Weidong kept talking about how cute his daughter was, which made Jiang Weiguo feel even more uncomfortable.

Oh, no wonder people say that a man forgets his mother after he

gets married...what about his brothers. "Brother, you've worked hard." Jiang Weiguo felt sorry for his brother, and felt that he seemed to be completely controlled by his second-married young wife.

Whose family has to call the mother and sisters to give birth? Not only did they come, but they also brought a bunch of children?

The way they take care of the confinement?

Is she showing off?

His mother has to serve so many people at her age, how hard it must be? If

his brother doesn't feel sorry, how can he, as a son, not feel sorry?

Jiang Weidong said cheerfully, "Why should I work so hard? Your sister-in-law suffered during the ten months of pregnancy, and she also suffered during childbirth. She also suffered during the confinement period when she was not allowed to be exposed to the wind or do anything else. I am so unworthy of being a lady for nothing."

Jiang Weiguo looked at his elder brother in silence.

"Brother, did your sister-in-law's mother and sisters bring their children to take care of you during the confinement period?"

Jiang Weidong: "Yes, there are so many people and it's so lively. Your sister-in-law and my mother are too bored at home."

Jiang Weiguo automatically interpreted it as: your sister-in-law dislikes her mother-in-law, so she wants her family to support her.

He said quietly, "Brother, our mother is too tired."

Jiang Weidong: "Mom is not tired either, your niece is very well behaved, she eats and sleeps every day. Usually, the eldest sister and the third sister help with cooking, and our mother and my mother-in-law take care of the children and wash diapers."

He always washes the diapers from last night while washing his face and shaving in the morning. It is not his turn at noon and in the evening, because his mother and mother-in-law wash them.

Explanation is covering up. He is explaining so hard, probably to cover up the bitterness of himself and his mother living in the hands of his mother-in-law.

Jiang Weiguo looked at his eldest brother with sympathy, said nothing more, and left.

Jiang Weidong watched him get on the bus and leave, turned around and couldn't wait to go home. If he felt that walking was too slow, he would run, just as a form of exercise.

Anyone who met him on the road would tease him, "Director Jiang, are you in a hurry to go home and pick up your daughter?"

Jiang Weidong: "Yes."

The daughter would wake up at noon to play for a while, and she would fall asleep again in the evening.

When he got home, Lin Shu and the eldest sister had already prepared the meal, and a group of people were teasing Mianmian.

But the adults couldn't get close because the four children were surrounding the little sister. Each of them took turns teasing her, making faces, making movements, and shaking red silk. Every unusual sound and movement would be exchanged for a reaction from little Mianmian, either laughing or looking at her coldly, and the four children would laugh happily.

The children were so happy because of little Mianmian's expression that they fell to the ground, and the adults laughed constantly because of them.

Tiantian: "The little sister is more fun than the little brother. Look, she can look at people like this."

Maybe the child's eyesight is not well developed yet and cannot see things completely, but he is curious, so he will use a deep, old-fashioned look to examine each other, which makes the older brothers and sisters very curious.

Tiantian thinks that Kuai Kuai will laugh or cry at that time, and will not frown at people like this.

"Wei Dong is back!" Lin's mother greeted him with a smile.

Although Lin Yue has not remarried, Lin's mother is open-minded and is happy every day.

The eldest daughter's family is fine, the couple loves each other, and the children are also good. The second daughter is also living well after the divorce, not to mention the youngest daughter's family.

She is cheerful every day. Now, even if a bird poops on her head while she is walking, she thinks it is a sign of getting rich, because fortune tellers say that feces are wealth, and she will definitely not get angry. The more

the mother-in-law looks at her son-in-law, the more satisfied she is.

She said to Lin Shu and Sister Lin, "Weidong is back. Let's have dinner. He must be hungry after working all morning."

Jiang Weidong washed his hands first and went to see his daughter. He also tried to poke her with his chin, which had just grown a little stubble, but was stopped by several baby guards.

Tiantian: "Second uncle, why do you always like to poke us with your stubble?"

Grandpa, grandma, uncle, and uncle all like to do this, even dad sometimes does it, and now second uncle does it too.

How strange!

Jiang Weidong smiled and said, "I don't want to prick you, I want to kiss you."

It's not good to kiss the baby's tender face with a big mouth, nor is it good to rub the baby's tender face with your big face, so you can rub it with your chin, the contact area is small and it won't hurt the baby.

Jiang Weidong picked up the girl, who was still soft and small at this moment, and he didn't dare to let go.

I still remember the day the child was born, Lin Shu asked him to hold her, but he didn't know how to hold a newborn. After holding the child, he didn't dare to move, and he didn't know how to put his arms like Shang Xing.

The child was too small, and looked shorter and thinner than his arm. He was afraid that the child would slip through the gap of his arm accidentally.

He just stood in a horse stance, tucked in his abdomen, lowered his shoulders, and held his arms, as if he was holding a big killer.

At that time, his posture made Lin Shu laugh so hard that she fell backwards, and the nurses also laughed out loud.

The nurse also said, "This is normal, most gay men will not hold a newborn baby", so he saved a little face.

But now he is very skilled in holding the baby, one big hand supports the child's back and buttocks, and the other hand protects the head and body at the side.

Not two minutes after Jiang Weidong held the baby, Xiao Mianmian yawned, and after less than five yawns, she fell asleep with her head tilted.

The speed of falling asleep makes people very envious.

Panpan smiled and said, "Second uncle, you are the hypnotic cradle of the little sister. She will fall asleep as soon as you shake her."

Tiantian: "Hold her for me, hold her for me!"

She didn't dare to hold her sister when she was awake, but she dared to do it when she was asleep.

Tiantian imitated the adults and sat cross-legged on the bed, holding the little sister with her arms crossed.

Panpan and Hou Wei put their arms under her arms to help hold her up, so that Tiantian wouldn't fall down due to lack of strength.

Tiantian had an incredible expression on her face. She felt it was magical every time she held her little brother and sister, but she liked the little sister more because she was whiter, softer and more fragrant.

After dinner, Mrs. Jiang chased Jiang Weidong out of the house and told him that Jiang Weiguo's mother-in-law was sick.

Jiang Weidong was surprised and asked, "What's wrong? Is it serious? He didn't mention it when I saw him at noon."

Old Lady Jiang: "You suddenly told me to stay for a few days."

Jiang Weidong smiled and said, "Mom, if you are worried, go and see her. Xia Xia has my mother-in-law and two sisters here. It's okay."

Old Lady Jiang: "I won't go. You can go and see her after work to see what's wrong with her and whether she needs to go to a big hospital and whether she has enough money."

Even if Lin Xia is kind and generous and won't complain about it in the future, Old Lady Jiang is not happy.

Any mother-in-law who doesn't let her daughter-in-law take care of her during the confinement period will not be justified when she gets old and sick and asks her daughter-in-law to take care of her.

Since she lives with her eldest son and eldest daughter-in-law, she must give top priority to the eldest son, because she doesn't have to rush over to take care of the younger daughter-in-law's mother when she is sick.

She went to wait on her. If the younger daughter-in-law didn't say yes then, the elder daughter-in-law would also feel uncomfortable.

Of course, she felt that Lin Xia wouldn't care about it that much, but the more people didn't care about it, the more she had to do it so that she didn't feel guilty.

At this age, she has already understood some truths. The most important one is: people have to have one end, and they can only have one end. You can't have both ends, and you can't have both ends.

If the in-laws are sick, it is okay for them to visit or help with the money, but forget it if they leave the eldest daughter-in-law in confinement to take care of her.

Jiang Weidong agreed.

When he returned to the office, he first hung up the phone to his brother's work unit.

It took a while to get through.

Jiang Weidong and his brother never beat around the bush. They directly asked their aunt what was wrong, whether it was serious, whether she needed to go to a big hospital, etc.

Jiang Weiguo's voice was tired and a little powerless, "It's just an old problem. She said she felt weak all over, sweating, dizzy, and it suddenly got worse in the past half month. She can't cook or pick up the kids."

Jiang Weidong: "What did the hospital say?"

Jiang Weiguo: "The hospital didn't find any major problems. It's so frustrating."

After chatting for a few words, Jiang Weidong hung up.

Jiang Weiguo felt a little sad holding the phone.

His eldest brother really...has not cared about him since he became an adult and got married.

Jiang Weiguo was so busy that he didn't want to go home until the afternoon when he got off work, but he had to pick up the children from school first, then go home to cook, wash clothes, etc.

The eldest son will start the first grade this fall and does not need to be picked up, but the second daughter and the youngest son are in the nursery and need to be picked up.

When I was picking up the children, I was called by the teacher to have a chat, because the daughter was a little naughty in the nursery and beat the two boys, and the youngest son wet his pants.

Because of the delay, they got home a little late.

As soon as I opened the door, I heard the voices of father-in-law and mother-in-law arguing in the room.

Mother Lu: "How can you be so heartless? I have served you for decades, and now I can't do it anymore. You can't serve me for two days?"

Father Lu: "How didn't I serve you? Didn't I bring you food and water? I also wiped your face and changed your clothes. You are sick, so don't be so picky." Mother Lu: "My body is not in good condition, my legs are not convenient, can you massage me, and my back." Father Lu: "Wait, can you help me?" Mother Lu: " I

am a little embarrassed, can you help me? I ...

"My daughter is home."

Hearing the door knock, Father Lu hurried out of the house. Seeing that it was his son-in-law, he couldn't help but find fault, "Weiguo, you got off work a long time ago, why are you back just now? Your mother is starving, hurry up and cook."

Jiang Weiguo: "Okay, I'll do it right away."

He saw his little son staggering and feeling uncomfortable in the cold cotton pants he had wet, so he quickly took his son to the house to change clothes.

Father Lu: "Weiguo, Weiguo! Didn't you say to cook? Your mother is hungry! Make her some egg custard!"

Jiang Weiguo: "Okay, right away!"

Mother Lu was whining in the house again, asking her husband to help her get the urinal. She had no strength after she got sick, her legs and arms were shaking, and sometimes she would have urinary incontinence, and if she was slow she would wet her pants.

Father Lu hurried to help his wife get the urinal.

He was used to being a leader, and in the past, someone would pass him a sip of water. He never did any housework at home, and his wife did everything.

His wife used to be virtuous and capable, and took care of him in every aspect, and he couldn't even cook noodles.

Now that the old woman has collapsed, she wants him to help her both inside and outside, so how can he do it?

If he bent down to carry the urinal, he might knock it over.

This time, the urinal didn't knock over, but he didn't support his wife hard enough. As a result, Lu's mother's legs were weak and she sat in the urinal.

Father Lu was stunned for a moment, holding his ten fingers and not knowing what to do. Hearing the old woman cry, he quickly bent down and helped her up.

He was afraid that the old woman would complain that she didn't hold her up, so he said first, "Why are you so careless when you pee?"

Lu's mother groaned, "I have told you many times that my legs are weak, but you don't hold me up. "Come on."

Father Lu helped her up and wiped her down and let her go to bed to rest.

He was very angry, "Weiguo, Weiguo!"

It is said that a son-in-law is half a son, but at this critical moment, the son-in-law is really no match for his son!

Jiang Weiguo had just changed his son's clean cotton pants, and was ordered around by his father-in-law to fetch water. In addition to mopping the floor, he also had to soak his mother-in-law and son's clothes in a basin for a while and then wash them.

As a result, when his wife Lu Yuan came home from work, the family hadn't cooked dinner yet.

In order to take turns to take care of Lu's mother, Lu Yuan took turns with others. Now it's Afternoon class and night class.

She was tired and hungry at the moment, and wanted to rest as soon as she got home, but she heard her father nagging Jiang Weiguo, "You have no sense, you are not diligent, you have no work to do, and you won't do anything unless you are told..."

This was originally what the mother-in-law said about Jiang Weiguo. In the past, the father-in-law asked her not to always criticize the son-in-law, but now he picked up those words.

Lu Yuan washed his hands and cooked with Jiang Weiguo.

They still lived in the house that Lu's father had divided before he retired. The bungalow has a small kitchen, a living room and three bedrooms.

Father Lu is a particular person and doesn't like to eat in the cafeteria, so Mother Lu used to cook for herself.

Now that Lu's mother is sick, the family has begun to eat in the cafeteria. But Lu's mother has a weak stomach and needs to eat some soup or egg custard. The family has to cook it for her. Since it is open, it is almost the same if she makes more or less.

Anyway, the family has been very busy these days.

Lu Yuan asked Jiang Weiguo: "Have you gone to talk to mother today?"

Jiang Weiguo was silent for a moment, "Yeah."

Lu Yuan's eyes lit up, "Mother agreed?" She thought that once Jiang Weiguo told his mother-in-law, her mother-in-law would definitely agree. , I guess I need to tidy up and let my sister-in-law get settled and come over. She couldn't wait, "Weiguo, why don't you just pick it up for your mother?"

Look at the chaos in the house. Personal help is needed everywhere.

She said: "Mom has been with my eldest brother for so many years, so it's time for her to live with us for a few more years. We also have a share in taking care of her in old age. I can't just let my eldest brother take care of me."

The implication is that my mother-in-law, who has been serving her eldest son for so many years, should also take care of her younger son's family. Already?

You don’t need to take care of me during the confinement period, you don’t need to take care of the child. Now there is something going on at home, why are you so embarrassed not to come and help?

Jiang Weiguo: "Mom... is busy too. She has to take care of my eldest sister-in-law during her confinement."

"What? She doesn't agree to come?" Lu Yuan was anxious. "Weiguo, what did you tell her? Is it my eldest brother who is unhappy or my eldest sister-in-law who is not happy? Willing? Mother is definitely willing. She said before that she would come to help me take care of the baby when she is free.

When Mrs. Jiang came to take care of her during the confinement period, she said that she would come to help when she is free. But Lu Yuan was afraid that her mother-in-law would take advantage of her, so she

She pushed back, saying that she and Weiguo lived in her parents' house, and that her mother was in charge of everything, so it was not her place to interfere. Each time he came, he just delivered some things, sat for a while and left, without even eating.

Jiang Weiguo whispered, "Mother has a hard time too."

Lu Yuan frowned, "What's hard about her? Didn't her sister-in-law, mother, and sisters come to take care of her during the confinement period? Can't she leave?"

Jiang Weiguo sighed. A look of embarrassment appeared on his face. Lu Yuan looked at his expression and immediately said, "You mean our mother is happy, but our sister-in-law is not willing? Why, her mother and sisters came to take care of her after the confinement, but she is still not satisfied and wants our mother to "I am here to take care of them?"

Jiang Weiguo: "I am here to take care of the confinement period. I saw the two sisters cooking."

Lu Yuan snorted coldly, "Weiguo, you always disliked what I said before. You thought it was I was too fussy. What do you think now? You said your elder brother didn't get married for so many years, why did he suddenly have to get married? Married? This will cause more troubles at home. I don't care, you should tell mom and ask her to come and help. The eldest son is a son, but the youngest son is not a son?"

Jiang Weiguo said: "Or Hire someone, either a nanny from my hometown in the countryside or an unemployed woman in the city."

Lu Yuan: "Jiang Weiguo? Do you think your family is rich? My dad used to work, but now I have to rely on him. We are hiring a nanny with our salary? Do you know how expensive a nanny is? It's more expensive than my salary! If I could hire a nanny, would I not? I asked around a long time ago, and they asked for 40 yuan! "

Her father I used to be a deputy factory director, and I enjoyed the benefits at that time, but the additional benefits were not as many as those of the factory director.

Of course, they are gone after retirement.

Fortunately, the factory reimbursed most of her mother's medical expenses.

If Jiang Weiguo couldn't go, she would go there herself.

Jiang Weidong naturally didn't hide his brother's family affairs from Lin Xia and others. He discussed it with them that night. I discussed it with Lin Xia, thinking that if my brother's family needed money urgently, I would support them.

Lin Xia never cared about these things. She didn't care about them when she was in Qian's family, and she didn't care about them now.

But Jiang Weidong was not stupid, and he didn't rush to ask for help. She gave money to her brother and prepared to borrow it

when her brother asked. However, Lin Shu secretly discussed with her second sister that it was easy to talk about whether the money was enough, but she couldn't let Aunt Jiang take care of her brother's wife's mother. It would become a habit, and she would be asked to be the mother if there was any problem in the future. The son hurried back. Lin Shu also heard Jiang Weiguo's hesitation that day. Lin's mother and eldest sister also guessed what he and his wife meant. It was thanks to Aunt

Jiang that she didn't follow his wishes and take the initiative to help. If she

went, they would naturally make plans for her.

If her mother-in-law rushed to take care of her, Lin Xia would not care. But since her mother-in-law valued her and had no intention of taking care of her son's family, Lin Xia would not take the initiative to mention it.

She quietly Jiang Weidong was not happy about it.

It was ok for his mother to take care of his sister-in-law when she was in confinement, but his mother was not a nanny when his sister-in-law's

mother was sick. Anyway, if his mother was sick, he would I won’t let my mother-in-law or my brother’s wife’s mother take care of me, I have to hire someone else.

Knowing what Jiang Weidong and Old Lady Jiang were thinking, Lin Shu felt that there was nothing difficult to do. Many things were difficult to handle because the parties involved had ambiguous attitudes.

For example, when the second sister was in the Qian family, Qian's mother had a good relationship with the youngest son. If the second sister said that she was not allowed to serve the younger brother's wife's mother, Qian's mother might even blame her for alienating her relationship with the younger daughter- in-law.

Two days later, Lin Shu was leading the second sister to do recovery yoga at home, while Lin's mother, old lady Jiang, and elder sister Lin were making dumplings with mackerel filling in the house.

The director of the factory office contacted the canteen for a batch of mackerel, and the factory leader's family was given a basin.

While they were busy, Panpan came back and said, "Grandma Jiang, second aunt, your second aunt is here."

Panpan had seen Lu Yuan when the second aunt and second uncle got married. He had a good memory and had not forgotten it. He recognized him immediately when he was playing outside.

Lin Shu smiled at Old Lady Jiang and said, "Auntie, if she asks you to help take care of her mother, will you go?"

Old Lady Jiang was familiar with them, and she didn't beat around the bush. She said directly, "I don't want to. She's hard to serve."

She's hard to serve when she's not sick, and she's definitely harder to serve when she's sick and has a bad temper.

Lin Shu immediately said, "Sister, hurry up, Auntie's foot is sprained, help her get on the kang."

Sister Lin and Lin Shu had lived together for a long time and knew her tricks, so she immediately helped Old Lady Jiang get up.

Old Lady Jiang was confused for a moment, but then she understood and was helped to lie down on the kang by the two of them. Sister Lin wrapped the gauze that Lin Xia had wrapped around her belly around her right foot, and soon she was wrapped up like a big dumpling.

Mother Lin was still wondering, "What are you doing...ah, mother-in-law, don't worry, I'm here, you should have a good rest."

As she was talking, Lu Yuan came directly into the yard with her bag on her back, "Mom, mom! Sister-in-law! I'm here to see you."

Lin Shu asked Lin Xia and Lin's mother to sit still while she went out to greet them.

Lu Yuan was stunned when she saw that it was Lin Shu who pushed the door open, then smiled and greeted, "Third sister hasn't left yet? I came to see my mother and sister-in-law, are they all right?"

Lin Shu motioned her to go in quickly, "Don't bring the cold wind, my sister is in confinement."

In order to prevent the draft from blowing on the second sister, they chopped the stuffing and kneaded the dough outside, but made dumplings in the house.

Seeing Lin Shu's cautious look, Lu Yuan smiled and said, "Third sister, you are too particular. Ordinary people like us don't need to be so delicate during the confinement period."

Lin Shu: "It still needs to be particular. Aunt Jiang didn't have the conditions to confine after giving birth to her little son. Not only did she work, but she was also exposed to the cold wind. Now she has headaches and leg pains."

Lu Yuan knew this. When her mother-in-law took care of her during the confinement period, she kept reminding her not to catch a cold, not to wash her hair, and reminded her of her own suffering during the confinement period. She just thought that it was her mother-in-law taking the opportunity to show off her misfortune and want her to be grateful.

She knew that her mother-in-law had been working hard in the countryside for many years and her health was not very good. She was also old, so she had been pushing her eldest brother and sister-in-law to take care of her mother-in-law.

Lu Yuan strode to the bedroom of Mrs. Jiang.

Lin Shu stopped Lu Yuan from rushing into the house so that she would not bring cold wind to choke the second sister and Xiao Mianmian.

"Sister Lu, you came at the right time. Aunt Jiang's old illness has come back and she has headaches and leg pains. She accidentally fell when she got up last night and twisted her right foot and can't walk. She is lying down now."

Lin Shu saw Lu Yuan's expression change from impatience to astonishment in an instant, and immediately showed joy, "Sister Lu, did you hear about this? Do you want to take Aunt Jiang to take care of her for a few days?"

Lu Yuan was silent for a moment.

She had been practicing all the way how to defeat the big sister-in-law with one mouth, how to stab the big sister-in-law and then take her mother home.

She planned one sentence after another, how to squeeze and ridicule the other party, so many people came to eat and drink, are they here to take care of the confinement or let the mother-in-law take care of you?

As a result, she prepared a lot, but when she arrived at the door

, she was interrupted by Lin Shu before she could use a word. Of course she would not take over her mother-in-law's broken foot. If she took over, she could not help and she had to take care of her?

Definitely not.

She did not suspect that Lin Shu deceived her, because she did not believe that her eldest sister-in-law was really good to her mother-in-law, and naturally she did not expect that Lin Shu and her mother-in-law would deceive her together. Mother -in-law and daughter-in-law are natural enemies, how could they be of one mind?

She believed that so many people came to her eldest sister-in-law's family to control her eldest brother and mother-in-law. Her mother-in-law must have fallen down tired from serving them. Now that she sprained her foot, they must serve her. It was wishful thinking!

However... she looked at Lin Shu, Sister Lin and Lin's mother, and a good idea came to her mind.

None of them had jobs, so they definitely didn't make any money. So why not pay a little money and hire one of them to help out at home?
