80s Raising a Baby

Chapter 10 010: Mrs. Chen cried, made trouble, and hanged herself
The old lady looked at Ye Qian who was sitting on the bed, and said without moving, "I'll be waiting for you."

Seeing his mother staring at Ye Qian defensively, Chen Zhongwu didn't say anything. He went out to put away his things and followed the old lady to the main room.

At this time, the old lady had put down the hoe, looked at Chen Zhongwu who was empty-handed, and asked in surprise, "Sir, what do you have to pack?"

In the past, Chen Zhongwu always came back with an army green bag, and of course the things for her were also placed in it.

Chen Zhongwu replied very calmly: "I came back this time in a hurry and didn't buy anything."

The old lady became anxious when she heard that, "Why don't you buy anything! Is it because your wife is about to give birth to you that you came back in a hurry!"

This time, she promised her younger son that she would give him all the things his third brother brought back.

"Why is a woman so nervous about having a baby? It's not like she hasn't given birth before." The old lady muttered angrily.

Chen Zhongwu: "It's not mother, it's something in the team that called me back in advance."

The old lady's complexion improved when she heard that it wasn't because she missed her daughter-in-law.

Turning his head and striding towards the house, he sat on the bench as soon as he entered the house.

Chen Zhongwu followed closely behind.

Chen Zhongwu hasn't come back for so long, and the old lady didn't ask him if he was injured, but went straight to the point and said, "Third brother, you should be paid this time!"

Chen Zhongwu knew what his mother meant as soon as he heard it, and replied lightly: "Send it." Then he took out the money he had prepared a long time ago from his pocket and handed it over.

As soon as the old lady got the money, she immediately changed her face and started counting in front of Chen Zhongwu with a smile.

After counting back and forth twice, his face drooped again, and he asked displeasedly: "Third brother, you didn't buy anything this time, why is the money still less than before?"

"Did you give it to your wife just now?"

Chen Zhongwu: "No, a comrade-in-arms of mine died, and I sent a few dollars to his family."

Hearing what he said, the old lady immediately showed a pained expression on her face, and couldn't help but muttered: "Isn't he just a comrade in arms, if he dies, he will die! You still need to send him money, you really deserve it!" Money is what the wind blows.”

Chen Zhongwu's face darkened when he heard the old lady's harsh words, "Mother!"

Seeing Chen Zhongwu's gloomy face, the old lady didn't dare to complain, so she changed the subject and said, "Hurry up and get it back after the salary is paid, the whole family is still waiting!"

"Okay, you go back! Tell your wife by the way, let her cook at night."

Seeing that his mother was not muttering, Chen Zhongwu's face improved a bit, and he turned and walked out.

After returning to the room, she turned to Ye Qian and said, "Mother asked you to cook dinner."

Ye Qian immediately replied with a blank expression: "You didn't tell mother that I can't get out of bed or cook."

Chen Zhongwu frowned, subconsciously replied: "Didn't you also get out of bed to cook before?"

Ye Qian gave him an annoyed look, "Didn't you say that was before, I had four children, and you think my body is still the same as before!"

"Let me tell you, I have suffered a great crime for giving birth to a fourth child this time. I will be confinement for at least 30 days. You tell your mother, don't expect me to cook for these 30 days."

Chen Zhongwu looked at Ye Qian with a strange face, as if he was getting to know her again.

"Why are you so angry?" Chen Zhongwu asked with a puzzled expression.

Ye Qian's face froze, and she said coldly: "If you walk around the gate of hell like me, your temper may not be as good as mine!" After she finished speaking, she lay back angrily, turned her back to him, and looked I don't want to pay attention to his appearance.

Chen Zhongwu had a bad nose at Ye Qian, looked at her back, had no choice but to talk to his mother again.

When the old lady heard that Ye Qian was going to have a 30-day confinement, she immediately exploded, "What, she's going to be a 30-day confinement, why doesn't she go to heaven!"

Chen Zhongwu: "She hurt her body by giving birth to her fourth child this time. If she doesn't do confinement properly, it may damage her body."

Mrs. Chen: "Which family doesn't have seven or eight children, she is the only one who is hypocritical."

Chen Zhongwu: "Isn't she weak?"

Mrs. Chen: "That's not okay. Now is the time when she is busy. She doesn't work in the fields. There are so many people in our family. We can only count on us and your elder brother and second brother to feed anyone."

Chen Zhongwu knew that what the old lady Chen said was pure nonsense, and the salary he handed in was enough to feed their family for a month. The family is still in such a tight situation because the old lady gave all the money to the youngest son.

"Mom, what about the wages I handed in! If you insist on letting Fengqin go to the ground, then I will pay half of the wages in the future, anyway, everyone is the same."

As soon as the old lady heard that the payment would be reduced by half, how could it be done, she pointed at Chen Zhongwu's nose and scolded, "You goddamn, you forget your mother when you have a wife. It's been a waste of raising you for so many years. Raising a white-eyed wolf, if I knew you were so heartless, I should have strangled you when I was born."

Chen Zhongwu stood there with a gloomy expression, letting the old lady scold him, but he didn't let go.

Mrs. Chen patted her thighs, spit and scolded him for about half an hour. Seeing that he didn't let go, she stood up from the stool angrily, bent over and lowered her head, and slammed into Chen Zhongwu. "Okay! With an unfilial son like you, I won't live anymore, so take my life!"

Chen Zhongwu was so entangled by the old lady that he could only helplessly shout: "Mother~"

The old lady bumped into Chen Zhongwu and backed away, she had no choice but to compromise and said, "Since you don't want to, forget it."

Seeing that Chen Zhongwu compromised so quickly, Mrs. Chen's face flashed a smugness, and she walked slowly back to the stool to sit with her waist supported.

"Okay, let your wife get up and cook!"

After hearing this, Chen Zhongwu said with a troubled face: "Mother, this Fengqin just gave birth, since you don't want her to rest for so long, then let her rest at home for three days at the head office!"

Mrs. Chen didn't dare to push him too hard, so she could only respond: "Okay, then let her rest for three days, it's for your sake."

When Chen Zhongwu came back from the main room, he saw Ye Qian lying with her back facing her, and said helplessly, "Mother said, it's not good to work in the field for 30 days, but I can let you rest for three days."

When Ye Qian heard what he said, a trace of sarcasm appeared on the corner of her mouth, "You agree?"

Chen Zhongwu: "Yes."

Then the two fell into an endless silence.

At first, when I saw how capable he was, I thought the story had changed, but I didn't expect it to be the same as what was written in the book. He didn't take any responsibility for them, and he agreed when his mother made a fuss.

Chen Zhongwu couldn't bear the atmosphere in the room, so he turned his head and walked outside.

Mrs. Chen's voice was so loud when she scolded Chen Zhongwu in the room that the whole yard could hear it clearly. The two children were afraid of hurting themselves, so they quickly stood up honestly.
