Chapter 15: Children and Toys

As soon as Mu Nan arrived at the unit today, he harvested a bunch of toys. Because a colleague in the class counted Mu Nan to have a child at the latest, Mu Nan's child was only a few months old, and the youngest of the other children was several years old, so everyone brought some toys from their children's children to Mu Nan. It's a small car, and it's a lot of dolls, balls, bells, and so on. At noon, Mu Nan entered the house with a few bags of toys on his shoulders and in his arms, and he almost couldn't hold it, but fortunately, there was an elevator, so he didn't have to climb the stairs, or he would be scattered all over the ground if he didn't reach the door. Both Xinxin and her mother-in-law were amused by his appearance and hurried up to help. In fact, Shin Shin also bought a lot of toys for her children, and Shin Shin's sister-in-law also gave some old ones. But the children are too young to play. This time, the toys given by my colleagues were also, and a few people picked them for a long time, and there are really not many suitable for this age to play. Xinxin took out the selected ones, and asked Mu Nan to put away the others first, put them in the basement, and take them out when the child is older. Shin Shin received the child's toy box by herself.

One of the toys selected by Shin Shin is a multicolored sand hammer, which is pure wood, not big or small, and the sound is moderate when shaken, so that children can listen to the sound. Xinxin and Mu Nan have been reading parenting books recently, and they mentioned that the child should be asked to listen to more voices this month, but the voice should not be too strong. This shaker Xinxin felt quite accommodating to the request, so she left it alone, ready to shake it for the child.

My mother-in-law has been in the village all her life, and she has seen a limited number of toys, and the first time she saw so many interesting things, she was a little dazzled, but unfortunately, she didn't see it clearly, and Mu Nan and Xinxin put it away again. She was actually very curious, and she was embarrassed to let her son and daughter-in-law show it to her. Therefore, when I saw the sand hammer left by Shin Shin, I felt very fresh, and I couldn't help but pick it up and try it. The old man is sometimes like a child, watching her mother-in-law playing with a shaker there, and Xinxin can't help but smile. Not only the mother-in-law, in fact, Shin Shin herself also likes toys, and many times the toys bought for children are bought when they look interesting and like, and the children may not be willing to play.

The mother-in-law held the sand hammer and shook it for a long time, and then ran to the child's bed to shake the child. The grandfather and grandson were playing happily, and the warm sunlight shone in through the pink curtain through the bay window, reflecting the child's little face, and even the wrinkled face of the mother-in-law looked much softer under the pink light. Xinxin looked at this warm and harmonious scene, and began to have some soft feelings for her mother-in-law in her heart. She even had an urge to wrap her arms around her mother-in-law's waist from behind and hug her well, just like holding her mother at home.

At this time, the mother-in-law was a little tired of shaking the sand hammer, so she casually stuffed the sand hammer into the child's hand and let him play with it by himself. Xinxin suddenly returned to reality, hurriedly walked over and said, "Mom, the child is not on the right hand now, and his strength is great, he can't give him the sand hammer, he will hit himself." So saying, he took the hammer out of the child's hand.

The mother-in-law smiled and said, "It's okay, it's okay", and stopped Xinxin and stuffed the sand hammer into the child's little hand again. The child was babbling happily, and the mother-in-law was also happy to smile. Who knew that the child was playing well, and as soon as he slammed into his head, a red envelope immediately bulged out on the door of the cerebellum, which made the child cry. When the mother-in-law saw it, she was also timid, and hurriedly smeared oil on the soles of her feet and slipped out. Xinxin picked up the crying child, and the dreamy feelings for her mother-in-law disappeared without a trace in an instant. After coaxing for a long time, the child finally quieted down, but the bag on his head was still bulging. Xinxin looked at the child distressedly, and thought: Now the mother-in-law should remember the lesson.

Who knew that in the afternoon, Xinxin went to the bathroom, leaving Mu Nan and her mother-in-law to watch the child. After a while, Xinxin heard the sand hammer start to sound wildly, followed by Mu Nan's voice: "Mom, don't let him play with it by himself, your daughter-in-law is not happy." The old lady said "yes" in a long voice, and the tone was full of unhappiness. Xinxin came out of the bathroom and pretended not to hear it, but a small pimple formed in her heart: in order to have fun for herself, she didn't care about the quality of the child at all, this old lady really didn't look like an old man.

In private, Xinxin and Mu Nan discussed this issue, hoping that Mu Nan would come forward and talk to her mother-in-law, because although her mother-in-law often ignored Xinxin's requests, she still listened to what Mu Nan said. Although Mu Nan felt that it was a bit of a fuss, but seeing that Xinxin was so persistent, she told her mother-in-law hard. The mother-in-law was naturally very unhappy, but when she saw her son's repeated instructions, she had no choice but to comply.

The next day, Xinxin secretly observed that her mother-in-law did not stuff the toys directly into the child's hands. She breathed a sigh of relief and just wanted to walk away, but suddenly found that her mother-in-law reached into the child's crotch and groped for a smile. Xinxin was suddenly anxious and asked her mother-in-law, "What are you doing?" ”

The mother-in-law saw that Xinxin's face was not good-looking, and was stunned for a moment, and then realized that Xinxin must be unwilling to do what she had just done, although she was very disapproving, but she also knew that Xinxin had a lot of things, and if she didn't get it right, she would have to go to her son to tell the truth, so she covered up and said "nothing, nothing" and walked away. Xinxin was stunned for a long time, and she didn't understand what the old lady was trying to do. But she paid attention to it, and it didn't take long for her to find out that her father-in-law would also play with the child like this. Xinxin was angry, so she said two words to her father-in-law. The father-in-law was very unhappy when he heard this, and he told Xinxin that this was a common thing in their village, and even many adults would teach their children to play with them after they were two or three years old. Xinxin almost fainted after hearing this, what kind of primitive bad habits are these! Before, Xinxin considered that her father-in-law had a good face, and tried her best to say it to her father-in-law calmly, but after listening to her father-in-law's explanation, she couldn't help it, and loudly refuted her father-in-law and said: "This is a vice!" It hurts a lot to the child! If you are abroad, you can be sued in court! Serious sentences are fine! The father-in-law also became angry all of a sudden, and being reprimanded by his daughter-in-law made him feel that it was too "collapsed", but in addition to the fact that this was a local custom, he couldn't say any decent reason to refute his daughter-in-law. So he ran out for a walk in a fit of rage, and refused to go into the house again to see the child all day.

As for Xinxin, she was completely in an extremely bad mood, she felt aggrieved, and she couldn't imagine that the good baby she had given birth to after all the hardships had become a toy for her in-laws! What kind of old man is this!?
