Chapter 399

On the dinner table is a small pot of porridge and a plate of stewed potato chips.

The three members of Li Mubao's family sat around the table, Xiaohu's whole head was buried in the rice bowl, and he was eating happily, but Zhou Yaping was struggling to swallow the corn.

She really has had enough of this kind of life. She eats corn noodles every day, and she can’t eat white noodles and rice when she’s pregnant. Since the food was distributed at the beginning of the month, she has been planning to live, even if she eats someday in the middle. If there are too many, I will be hungry at the end of the month.

"You haven't finished talking just now, is your mother coming or not?" Zhou Yaping raised her head and asked Li Mubao next to her.

"Mother said she wanted to discuss it with Xiaosi. I'll go and see it in a few days. Anyway, you haven't had a baby here yet." Li Mubao didn't say anything, and his old mother immediately refused when he heard him. If it wasn't for him She shamelessly begged my old lady for help, but it was impossible for my old lady to think about it.

"What are you talking about? I just didn't give birth, and I can't do anything because my stomach is too big. If your mother could come over earlier, would she be able to help with cooking and washing clothes? You don't have to do this I'm busy." Zhou Yaping said these things.

"If you really love me, I can save a lot by doing more housework." Li Mubao said sullenly.

My daughter-in-law has been raising fat at home since she knew she was pregnant, and she doesn't need to work, or the food at home can't be so difficult.And she just lay down at home when she sees the sky, either today's pain or tomorrow's uncomfortable, anyway, as long as she is asked to work, she will definitely feel uncomfortable. After going to the hospital a few times, Li Mubao can't afford it anymore. After all, he is not a wealthy family. This month's salary has been spent on medical treatment, and he hasn't seen anything yet. He can't get by.

So he can only do more by himself, let his wife lie down at home, and she won't feel uncomfortable if she doesn't do anything.

But this is not a long-term solution. After the second child is born, even if he has three heads and six arms, he can't manage by himself. Not to mention his work, even if he can serve his wife and stay in confinement, he can't take care of the child, so That's when I thought about asking my old lady to come and help, and also wanted to ease the relationship.

"You think it's because I don't want to do it. It's not all because of your son. Whenever I move, he will be uneasy inside. What do you want me to do?" Zhou Yaping retorted with her eyes wide open. She had worked hard enough. She gave birth to a son to their old Li family, and now she is going to give birth to another one. Just like what her mother said, it is enough for them to serve on the shelves of their old Li family, and it is also right for them to serve and serve themselves.Besides, the happiest time in a woman's life is only a few months of pregnancy. She was stupid last time, and this time she said that she can't lose herself anymore.

Li Mubao stopped talking, because he knew that even if he said it, he couldn't talk about his wife.

"To be honest, if my parents had to watch over my brothers' children and had no time to serve my confinement, I would not hesitate to use your mother. We have such a small space in our house, and we can build a floor for your mother. There is no place to turn around." Zhou Yaping looked at her humble home and felt sour.

This day is really different from what she imagined. She originally thought that after marriage, both of them would have jobs, and they would definitely get better. She was still the head of the house, so she could buy whatever she wanted.As a result, it was not like that after she really lived a life. Every day, she was very annoyed by daily necessities.

"By the way, when your mother comes over, you tell her to let her bring over the family's food, or else she comes over for nothing and our family can't afford it." Zhou Yaping ordered as a matter of course.

Thinking of the white flour steamed buns from the old woman's house, her saliva secreted uncontrollably.I lived in my mother-in-law’s house for less than a year. Although the family was a little poor, the food was really better than in the city. How can I still eat white noodles and steamed buns? I can also eat some meat every now and then. It's not like now, let alone meat, it's good to be full.

So this time she is pregnant, and her natal parents are also fighting, so she wants to let the old woman serve her, and by the way, can I get some of the noodles, meat, etc. at home, or Even an old lady can't finish it, so it's better to give it to her son and grandson.

"My mother doesn't need to live at home. In order to take care of Xiao Si, she also moved to the county. It's not too far from our house. It takes about 10 minutes to ride a bicycle. Then let my mother come to take care of you and the child during the day. , when I get off work, let her go back to Primary Four." This is the method Li Mubao thought of, so that both parties can be taken care of.

"What, your mother has also moved to the county?" Zhou Yaping said with disbelief on her face, "Has your girl been allocated a house?" Now the houses are basically allocated by the public, and the unit will base the workers on the basis of their seniority and grade. In terms of seniority based on objective conditions, of course, there are not many young people who can be allocated houses. Like Li Mubao’s family, one is a regular worker and the other is a temporary worker. They have been in the flour mill for seven or eight years, and they have not yet been allocated a house. As for the single dormitory, it is enough to see how tight the housing is now, and how difficult it is to get a house.

"No, they rented it outside, just like us." Li Mubao was also surprised to hear that there was a house in the county.

"Oh!" Zhou Yaping thought this was normal.

"Okay, that's easy, let your mother come over during the day and go back at night. But you have to tell your mother that even if you have lunch at our house, she has to bring rations, and we don't have her share " Zhou Yaping said a little harshly.

Li Mubao looked up at her.

"What do you look at? Am I wrong? You don't know the conditions of your own family. Your wife and children will not be able to support you with just that little food every month. Why do you still want to support your mother?" Li Mu Bao, let me tell you, if you dare to do this, I will never end with you." Zhou Yaping is not afraid of Li Mubao, and now the child in her belly is her greatest confidence.

"That can't make my mother busy, or give my mother five dollars..." Zhou Yaping holds all the money, and Li Mubao can't do anything even if he wants to be filial to his mother. He has to discuss everything with his wife.

"Bullshit, if I have the five yuan, I still have to ask your mother to come and serve me. My own mother is still waiting." Zhou Yaping's eyes widened when he heard him mention the money to her mother-in-law.

The reason why she had a fight with her natal parents was because she hadn't been at work since she was pregnant with this child, and her family suddenly lost more than ten yuan in wages, so her hands were a little tight.Of course, there is no way to help parents from time to time like before, which would offend people.

If she was willing to spend five yuan, what would she do with her mother-in-law? Her own parents would definitely come over to serve her.

"Look at the daughter-in-law who gave birth to a grandson, it wasn't the mother-in-law who came to take care of her confinement." Zhou Yaping felt that it was only natural for her mother-in-law to take care of her. Going out can make people laugh out loud."

Li Mubao couldn't bear her quarrel, so he had to compromise again, "All right, all right, let me listen to you. Don't give my mother money, but don't talk about asking her to take any rations. She is an old man. How much can the wife eat?"

 Time is too late in the morning, come and catch bugs now!
