"By the way, my family has many children now. When we have nothing to do, we can let Dalin and Xiaolin come over to play. It will be more lively with more children." Lu Qingyan suddenly thought of Qian Xiaomei's two sons who stayed at home when they had nothing to do, and she started talking.

"That's great. I'll let them come over to play when I get home. You don't know how naughty my second son is. As long as he's at home, he'll want to lift the roof off you." When Qian Xiaomei heard this, she was very happy and agreed.

You know, when her two sons come out to play, the house will be a lot quieter, which is what she wishes for.

"Children, it's okay to be naughty. My two kids are naughty as well." After saying this, Lu Qingyan couldn't help but yawning.

"Oh, look at me, I came to see you in the middle of the day, and I forgot that you sleep at noon every day." When Qian Xiaomei saw Lu Qingyan yawning, she immediately remembered that it was noon.

So he immediately stood up, said that he was going home, and regardless of Lu Qingyan's attempts to keep him, he waved his hand and walked out of the yard.

"Lin Chunhua's house is going to be busy these days." After cleaning up the kitchen, Mother Lu had been sitting next to them listening to Qian Xiaomei and her daughter chatting. When she saw Qian Xiaomei leave, she spoke up.

"Yes, it will be lively for two days, but it won't be lively for two days. Lin Chunhua is such a calculative person, she won't let her parents-in-law stay at her house for two more days." Lu Qingyan no longer had the scruples she had just had when talking to Qian Xiaomei, and she said directly to her mother: "Qian Xiaomei will definitely use the excuse of not sending money back home to keep that little girl."

"I think it's very difficult. You know, it's not easy to raise a child. Lin Chunhua may not agree." After hearing what her daughter said, Lu's mother felt that Lin Chunhua would not agree to let her raise another child, so she also expressed her guess.

"Then let's wait for news." After Lu Qingyan said this, she stood up, told her mother that she was sleepy, and went into the house to sleep.

At this moment, Lu's mother could no longer sit still, so she turned around and went to visit Lin Chunhua's neighbors and listen to some gossip.

She was not the kind of person who liked to join in the fun, but it was too boring to stay in the military area, so she went to visit people and chat, listen to gossip, and not tell anyone else. It was also a pleasure to come back and share it with her daughter.

So Lu's mother stayed at Lin Chunhua's neighbor's house, listening to the excitement all afternoon, and almost forgot to cook.

It was only when I saw the old lady Liu, whom I visited, always looking at the clock that I remembered it was time to cook.

He quickly stood up, greeted everyone, and hurried home.

"What have you been doing? Don't you see what time it is? If you are any later, Mingze will be back from get off work soon." When Father Lu came back from the fields with his children, he saw that his wife was not at home, so he went back to the house to take a nap.

But when he woke up, he saw that it was almost time to cook, but his wife had not come back yet.

He went to the kitchen to cook some rice. At that moment he was peeling potatoes. When he saw his wife come back, he said something in a bad mood.

"I forgot the time while I was out chatting. Besides, I'm back now, right? It's still in time to cook now." Mother Lu knew she was in the wrong, and when she heard the old man's bad attitude, she didn't care too much. She went to wash her hands, chased the old man out, and started to cook quickly.

After everything was done, Gu Mingze came back from get off work and entered the yard.

"I've just finished cooking. Come wash your hands and get your bowls and chopsticks to eat." Mother Lu brought out a large bowl of rice and asked the children who were playing nearby to wash their hands and come over to help. Then everyone sat down to eat together.

"Mom, when did you come back? Why didn't I hear any noise?" Lu Qingyan sat on the stool and then remembered that there was no one in the yard after she woke up, so she went to translate.

When I saw her mother, I suddenly remembered that I hadn't seen her mother all afternoon, and her father was whispering to me just now.

"I came back when your father was cooking." After saying this, Mother Lu ate her meal while excitedly talking to her daughter, "I went to your Aunt Liu's house and heard Lin Chunhua and her mother-in-law quarreling in the yard. They even chased her mother-in-law away."

"What's going on?" Gu Mingze didn't know what happened in Lin Chunhua's family. When he heard his mother-in-law say this, he frowned.

You have to know that even his wife, who is so delicate, has never scolded his mother.

Lin Chunhua seems like a nice person, so why did she start scolding her mother-in-law?

"Today, Qian Xiaomei came over and said that Lin Chunhua's parents-in-law brought a little girl here, saying that she was from her sister-in-law's family, and her sister-in-law died of heavy bleeding during childbirth." Seeing her husband frown, Lu Qingyan explained, "Her parents-in-law couldn't bear to see the little girl suffer under the care of her stepmother, so they took the child over and told Lin Chunhua and her family to raise her."

"Why don't they raise the child themselves, but let Lin Chunhua and the others raise him?" Gu Mingze frowned when he heard this, but after saying this, he suddenly remembered that Zhang Tielin was the eldest and most promising one in their family, so it made sense for them to raise the child.

But he heard that Zhang Tielin mailed his monthly allowance to his hometown. In that case, it would be a bit unreasonable for him to suddenly bring a little girl here for them to raise.

"Who told them that Zhang Tielin is the only one who can make a living? He also gets a monthly allowance, which is better than the work points they earn in the brigade?" When Lu's mother heard her son-in-law's words, she spoke up without waiting for her daughter to say anything: "For one thing, Zhang Tielin and his family live far away from their hometown. Sending the child to them can also keep him away from his family, which will save a lot of trouble in the future."

"But Zhang Tielin and his family have to mail their allowance to their family every month. It will be hard to raise one more child." Gu Mingze knew how much allowance Zhang Tielin received every month. He roughly calculated it in his mind and felt that it would be more difficult for his family to raise one more child.

"Of course not. With that little girl, there are two adults and three children. It's more than 20 yuan a month. After various expenses, even if you don't work hard, you can't save any money." Lu's mother knew that they had to buy food and vegetables in the city, pay for water and electricity, and the children's tuition. It would cost a lot of money if all the other things were added up.

"Okay, let's stop nagging about other people's affairs, so that they won't be unhappy when they find out." Father Lu saw his wife nagging endlessly, so he interrupted her and said unhappily.

Mother Lu opened her mouth and wanted to say something, but when she saw the unhappy face of the old man, she swallowed the words.

She knew that her husband hated to hear others gossiping about his wife the most.

The reason why he was angry now was probably because his daughter and son-in-law also said the same thing.

So she decided not to say anything to avoid making him angry. She would just have to listen to the old man's nagging at night.
