"Mom, I think you are just taking out your anger on my sister-in-law. I can't reason with you." Tang Shi sat on the stool helplessly.
She also thought about coming back to act as a mediator to mediate the conflict between the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, and then the matter would be over.
Who knew that Tang's mother was so stubborn that she had given up the idea of coaxing Tang Meilan back home.
Forget it, let it be. No one can wake up a person who is pretending to be asleep.
Tang's mother clearly knew that these behaviors were wrong, yet she kept committing them. It was obvious that she was just looking for trouble.
Tang's father pressed his ears against the door, feeling very puzzled.
There were some talking sounds just now, why is it so quiet outside now?
Just as I was lost in thought, Tang Shi's voice came.
"Dad, Dad, I'm going to work first." Tang Shi shouted into the house.
"Xiao Shi, why don't you stay home for a while?" With her grandchildren away, Tang's mother was dissatisfied with everything about Tang's father. Tang's father couldn't find anyone to talk to and was almost suffocated.
"No, I'm going back to work. If I don't make money, I might be kicked out by my in-laws one day." After saying this to Tang's mother, Tang Shitou left angrily.
Tang's mother went back to her room and sulked.
Tang's father prepared the meal silently, and went for a walk outside while the meal was still in the pot.
In the hospital~
Tang Meilan accompanied Tang Ci to remove the plaster.
"I'm recovering well. Once the swelling goes down, I can slowly train to walk normally again. But I still have to avoid heavy work during this period."
Because I wore a plaster cast for a month and a half, and it was not washed, it was so black that it was horrible to look at, and one leg was bigger than the other.
But the doctor said this is normal and that both sides will be the same size once the swelling goes away.
"Okay, thank you, doctor."
Tang Ci limped out of the hospital with the support of Tang Meilan.
Tang's father was originally going to the park to find someone to play chess with. When he passed by the hospital, he saw two people from a distance who looked very much like his son and daughter-in-law.
He hurried forward to check and found that it was indeed Tang Ci and his wife.
"Xiao Ci, Meilan, why are you here in the hospital? Are you injured again?" Father Tang walked around the two of them, looking them in circles.
"Dad, why are you here? My mom isn't here, is she?" Tang Ci exclaimed.
"Just talk, why are you thundering and raining? Your mother is not here, and I'm alone. Tell me quickly where you are hurt." Tang's father's brows were twisted into a "川" shape.
Outsiders only think about the benefits of being a soldier, but they don’t know how difficult life is for these military families. What they fear most but also look forward to most is a call from the army.
"It's nothing, come to the hospital to remove the plaster."
It was only then that Tang's father noticed that there was still a layer of white debris stuck on Tang Ci's legs.
"Meilan, let Dad help him. He's so heavy, don't tire yourself out."
Tang's father took Tang Ci into his arms, and the three of them walked towards the building of the First Primary School, one walking shallowly and one walking deep.
"Good, really good. It's close to the primary school, so it will be convenient for Zijun and Zimei to go to primary school next year." Tang's father walked around the room and nodded with great satisfaction.
Tang Zijun and Tang Zimei have been clinging to Tang's father like human pendants ever since he came in.
Tang's father also enjoyed it.
Sometimes he acted like a horse for his two children to ride on, and sometimes he let the children ride on his shoulders to reach the water drops from the eaves.
"Grandpa, can you please stay tonight? Zijun hasn't slept with grandpa for a long time." Tang Zijun pulled his father's arm and said coquettishly.
"Grandpa wants to, too, but grandma will be scared sleeping alone at night. Grandpa has to go back to accompany grandma. After grandpa comforts grandma, he will come to accompany Zijun, okay?"
His wife and daughter-in-law were already having a huge fight, and if he stayed out all night, Tang's mother would probably be furious.
"Okay, Grandpa, let's make a promise that we won't change our minds for a hundred years." Tang Zijun stretched out his little finger and said in a baby voice.
After a while, the grandfather, grandson and his two children started making noise in the house again, and strings of silver bell-like laughter echoed over the yard.
"Dad, have you eaten? Why don't you eat here at noon?"
Tang Meilan poured rice into the winnowing basket.
The sight of the white rice made Tang's father swallow his saliva in frustration.
The rice jar at home was empty on the third day after Tang Meilan left. These days, the old couple have been eating coarse grains.
Although Tang's mother didn't say anything, her expression of disgust was clear on her face.
We also went to the black market to buy food along the way.
However, since the three-year famine, the price of grain on the black market is not as low as before. A little over one yuan per pound is already considered cheap, and the quality is not good.
It's completely different from what Tang Meilan bought.
Tang's mother felt very sorry for the food and often cooked whole grains together with mixed grains.
However, as he had no say in the matter, he could only eat whatever was available.
"Okay." After thinking about it, Tang's father agreed.
So Tang Meilan poured another half bucket of rice into the winnowing basket.
When Tang Zijun saw his mother started cooking, he got off his father's back and went to the kitchen to help light the fire with his short legs.
Tang's mother never allowed her children to do these things before.
After Tang Meilan moved out, she began to let her children consciously take on some housework within their ability.
Therefore, in this short period of time, the two children not only learned to dress and eat by themselves, but also knew how to help Tang Meilan light the fire, wash vegetables and wash dishes.
Tang's father looked very pleased.
As for children, they shouldn't be spoiled. If he continues to raise them like his wife, he will become a spoiled child sooner or later.
For lunch, I cooked fried bacon with garlic sprouts, braised cabbage with tofu, and stir-fried garlic shoots.
After the food was placed on the table, Tang Zijun first took Tang Zimei to wash their hands, and then carefully helped the family to serve the food.
