◎It is not a good deal to rush forward◎
Wu Yun and Song Jianjun held their wedding banquets in the same month. Jiang Che didn't know Song Jianjun's wife, but he heard that she was also from Beijing, her family was well off, and she had a decent job.
As for Wu Yun's wife, Jiang Che kept talking to Wei Xuan about her for several days after returning from the banquet.
"You said Wu Ge is such a good man, how come he found a wife like this?"
Wei Xuan really didn't want to hear him continue talking about this matter, so she busy herself with the things at hand and pretended not to hear.
Jiang Che talked to himself for a long time before he realized that his wife wasn't listening to him at all. He walked up to her discontentedly and stopped her from working: "Comrade Wei Xuan, can you please respect me a little? I'm talking to you!"
Wei Xuan rolled her eyes helplessly: "Okay, what do you think I should do to show respect to you?"
"Hehe, it's not difficult. Just analyze it for me. What do you think Angkor is thinking?"
Wei Xuan really didn't want to pay attention to him. You are worried about someone getting married. What kind of thing is this?
...
...
But looking at his attitude, it was obvious that he would not give up until she told him everything. So Wei Xuan didn't hesitate and pulled a stool from the side and sat down.
After taking a look at him, she asked, "Have you ever been with Brother Wu's wife?"
"No." It was the first time I saw him at a wedding last time.
Wei Xuan spread her hands and said, "That's it. Brother Wu spends time with her every day, and he knows her better than you do. Since he wants to marry her, there must be a reason. As for you, you are not familiar with her, so you have no say. It's just like when you married me, there must be people in your family who didn't understand and advised you, right? Aren't we living a good life now?"
When talking about what happened back then, Jiang Che felt a little guilty. He still remembered that his mother was so angry about him marrying Wei Xuan that she was hospitalized for a few days.
But no matter how weak his heart was, Jiang Che refused to admit defeat: "How can it be the same? You didn't see it. On the wedding day, Brother Wu's wife's brothers came to his house and almost made Grandma Wu collapse. Even so, his wife still spoke for her brothers. In the end, Brother Wu paid 20 yuan to his brothers to resolve the matter."
Wei Xuan couldn't understand it either. Of course she would think about her own family if something good happened, but the prerequisite was that her family was worthy of her help. Otherwise, she wouldn't care who you were. Not to mention her own brother, even if they were her biological parents, she would ignore them if they treated her badly.
After thinking for a long time without any clue, Wei Xuan said, "Maybe they have some hidden secrets that you don't know. Come on, stop bothering me. Go check if Yuanyuan is awake. Otherwise, if she wakes up and doesn't see anyone, she'll make a fuss again."
Speaking of her daughter, Wei Xuan got a headache. She didn't know what happened to her recently, but she became so tearful.
She asked her mother-in-law, and she said it was the same as when Jiang Che was a child, it was nothing, it would be fine when he grew up a little.
But every time Wei Xuan saw her crying little face, she still felt so distressed. The child was young and couldn't understand what she said, so she didn't know what to do. She could only stay with her as much as possible so that she could see her as soon as she opened her eyes.
Jiang Che was also afraid that his daughter would cry, so when he heard Wei Xuan say that, he no longer cared about Wu Yun's matter. After all, it was a matter between husband and wife. No matter how close he was to Wu Ge, he could not be closer than the person beside him. Apart from complaining to Wei Xuan at home, he would not mention it in front of Wu Yun.
Yuanyuan is now six months old, and Wei Xuan is thinking about adding complementary food to her diet.
Section 39
After cleaning up the vegetable garden, Wei Xuan went to the well to wash her hands, then went into the kitchen, took an egg and put it in the pot to cook.
In the room, Jiang Che had just walked to the crib when little Yuanyuan opened her eyes. She was confused for a while before she noticed her father.
In order to let his daughter see more clearly, Jiang Che bent down and moved his face closer to her.
Yuanyuan just stared at him blankly. Jiang Che was not on guard against his daughter, but Yuanyuan suddenly raised her hand and slapped him in the face.
Jiang Che cried out in pain when she hit him. It was really painful when he got hit by those small arms and hands.
Perhaps because she thought Jiang Che was a little funny, Yuanyuan started to giggle.
Jiang Che reached out his hand to tickle her, and the father and daughter had a lot of fun for a while.
But after a while, Yuanyuan refused to do it anymore. She was smiling one second, and her mouth was pouting the next.
Jiang Che was afraid that she would cry, so he picked her up and walked out.
"Wife, my daughter is hungry."
"Here it comes." Wei Xuan looked at the egg yolk that had been crushed into fine pieces in the bowl, added some water into it and stirred it before she walked out quickly.
Yuanyuan saw her mother's deflated mouth shrink back instantly.
"Hold her and sit down. I'll feed her first." Wei Xuan instructed Jiang Che to sit down.
At first Yuanyuan didn’t understand what was going on, why her mother didn’t hold her, she was hungry and wanted to drink milk.
Just as she was about to open her mouth and cry to express her dissatisfaction, Wei Xuan took the opportunity to feed a spoonful of egg yolk water into her mouth.
Yuanyuan was interrupted halfway through her crying. She felt something in her mouth and curiously wrapped it with her tongue.
Hey, what is this? It tastes better than milk.
Seeing that she had accepted the taste of the egg yolk water, Wei Xuan fed her a second spoonful.
"What is this?"
"Egg yolk mixed with water. She's grown up now, and milk alone isn't enough for her. I thought of adding something else to her diet. Oh, and I also want to make some rice porridge for her. Grind some rice flour later so it will be convenient for me to make it for her next time."
"good."
Yuanyuan leaned in her father's arms, squinting her eyes and enjoying her mother's feeding.
As she was enjoying the meal, Wei Xuan used her pocket to wipe her mouth: "That's enough, you can't eat too much for the first time."
Leaving the rest to Jiang Che to deal with, Wei Xuan took her daughter and prepared to carry her into the house to feed her some more milk.
Yuanyuan hadn't eaten enough yet. Seeing that her mother would not feed her anymore, she babbled in an attempt to tell Wei Xuan that she still wanted to eat.
Wei Xuan couldn't understand what she said at all. She thought her daughter was playing with her and responded with "oh oh" and "ah ah".
Seeing that her mother didn't listen to her, Yuanyuan opened her mouth and wanted to cry again, but Wei Xuan directly stuffed the bottle into her mouth.
When she smelled the familiar scent, Yuanyuan immediately forgot about the egg yolk water and started slurping it up.
Wei Xuan found it funny and scratched her nose: "Slow down, no one is trying to snatch it from you, or you'll choke again."
As the child grew older, she spent more time awake during the day. After drinking milk, Wei Xuan carried her out. Seeing that Jiang Che had already drunk up the egg yolk water left over from her daughter's meal, Wei Xuan asked her to hold her daughter while she dug a bowl of rice from the cupboard, washed it, and stir-fried it in the pan.
After about five or six minutes, the aroma of rice wafted out. Wei Xuan saw that the rice in the pot had been fried until it turned slightly yellow, so she took the child and asked Jiang Che to take the rice outside to grind it.
"Be sure to grind it twice more. The finer the better."
"I know."
From that day on, Wei Xuan fell in love with researching all kinds of complementary foods for her daughter, including apple juice, carrot juice, rice porridge, corn porridge, pumpkin porridge and various fish and bone soups without salt.
In short, Wei Xuan enjoyed cooking and little Yuanyuan enjoyed eating too.
Now every afternoon is her happiest time, because Wei Xuan will prepare complementary food for her while she is taking a nap, and she can eat it just in time when she wakes up.
Today, Wei Xuan prepared a bowl of meat porridge for her. The minced meat was cooked with rice porridge. Although no salt was added, it was still very fragrant.
Yuanyuan's little mouth was smacking as she ate, one bite after another, and Wei Xuan could hardly keep up with her speed.
Just as I finished eating and wiped my mouth, Mrs. Wei San came to my house.
"Sister-in-law, why are you here at this time? Is it a holiday today?"
"Yes, I have nothing to do at home so I want to come and see Yuanyuan." Third Sister Wei replied with a smile, then looked at Yuanyuan and said jokingly: "Yuanyuan, what are you doing? Do you still remember your third aunt? Give your third aunt a hug, okay?"
Mrs. Wei San lived nearby and often came here at night, so Yuanyuan was quite familiar with her.
Seeing that she was not shy, Wei Xuan handed the child to Wei Sansao: "Sister-in-law, hold the child for a while. I'll go wash the dishes."
"Okay, go ahead."
Wei Xuan washed the dishes and went back to the house to pack a few cakes and bring them to the main room: "Sister-in-law, please try this. Jiang Che bought this two days ago. I think it tastes pretty good."
Mrs. Wei didn't hesitate to pick one up and started eating.
After eating one and drinking a glass of water, Mrs. Wei San started to tell her what happened today.
"Little sister, I've been filling in for you here for more than half a year, and Yuanyuan is already half a year old. I wonder when you plan to go back to the supply and marketing cooperative?" After saying that, he added, fearing that Wei Xuan might overthink it, "I don't mean to rush you. I just want to ask clearly so that I can be prepared."
"Don't worry, Third Sister-in-law, I don't think too much about it." Wei Xuan has been worried about this matter recently. Third Sister-in-law has been in Beijing for quite some time. Not to mention Third Brother, even her mother has written to her about this matter. It is definitely not good to delay it any longer.
But she really couldn't bear to leave her daughter behind to go to work, so after thinking it over, she decided to tell the truth to Mrs. Wei San.
"Third sister-in-law, I won't hide it from you. Before I gave birth to Yuanyuan, I could still say that I would send her to a nursery when she was older, but now I really can't bear to let her go, so I probably won't go back to work at the supply and marketing cooperative. Of course, I don't insist on you taking my place all the time. If you put yourself in their shoes, you must miss Third Brother and Xiangxiang, too. How about this, you keep an eye on them for a few more days while I look for someone to take over the job. When I find a buyer to take over, you can go back. What do you think?"
Mrs. Wei was shocked. She just gave up a good job like that? My little sister is really generous.
"Okay, as long as you have a plan, that's fine... I'll go back first." Mrs. Wei was really stunned by her sister-in-law's generosity, and she didn't come to her senses until she was blown by the wind after leaving the yard.
Wei Xuan said this in front of Wei Sansao. In fact, she also wanted to see if Wei Sansao was willing to take the job. She didn't ask directly because she was afraid that if she asked, it would be bad if the other party was unwilling and it would be difficult for her to refuse. After all, it's not a good deal to be the one who pushes forward.
This was said in a tactful way. If Third Sister Wei didn't have this idea, it wouldn't affect her work. On the contrary, if she had this idea, she would definitely come to her and tell her. At that time, how she and Third Brother negotiated specifically would be their problem, and she couldn't control it.
Wei Xuan was right. Third Sister-in-law Wei really had this idea. Although she did not ask her sister-in-law how much she was going to sell the job for, she had a rough idea in her mind. Anyway, if she took over, she would definitely make money.
So without even having time to go home, she went to a nearby public telephone booth to call her hometown.
