Chapter 138: Thirty-Eight
When the mother-in-law saw Xinxin going out, she picked up the child and complained to Mu Nan: "Xinxin looks good at the child at home, why do you have to change you back?" There's nothing wrong with their unit. ”
Mu Nan was a little unhappy when she heard this, and retorted to her: "You haven't been to work again, how do you know that their unit is not busy." ”
The mother-in-law pouted and said, "Who doesn't know." The old ladies who walked together all said that the women of public institutions are furnishings, and they don't have to do any work, just sit in an office. ”
Mu Nan said: "Mom, can you listen less to those old ladies who say something that they don't have." Can't you come back and see your children when you have time? ”
The mother-in-law said unwillingly: "Aren't I not good at it." Why don't I look at the kids? But his heart was a little empty, and after thinking about it, he added: "I'm much better now, and there should be nothing wrong with tomorrow and the day after tomorrow." You don't have to ask for leave. ”
When Mu Nan heard her mother say this, her heart couldn't help but warm, compared to Xinxin's ignorance, it was still more painful for her mother. He said to his mother-in-law, "You are just right, don't be too tired." I'll come back to cook these two days, just watch the children first. Wait until you get stronger, and then do something else. ”
The mother-in-law wanted to say, "Why don't you let Shin Shin come back to cook", but after thinking about it, she held back. My son is a straight man, and some things have to be done slowly.
Shin Shin went out and did not go to the unit. It's past the time to go to work, and now it's past that I'm late, so I don't go at all. But she didn't want to go home, and she didn't want to face the troubles at home again. I think it's been a long time since I've been shopping, so I just go shopping alone!
She took the car to the trade city in the center of the city, where there were a lot of people, and most of them were women. It wasn't a day off, and there were so many people, which surprised Shin Shin. Alas, it seems that there are really a lot of rich and idle people! Shin Shin felt a little self-pitying.
Shin Shin walked from this store to which store alone, looking at the colorful products in the store without a match, but for some reason he couldn't arouse his interest. Eventually, she finally saw a piece of clothing in a store and stopped to try it on. Just as she was about to walk into the fitting room. A guy slapped her from behind. She turned around and saw that it was Wen Jun and Liu Mei.
"How do you have the time to come out?" Xinxin asked in surprise.
Wen Jun blinked: "Eldest sister, it's not just your unit that has a holiday on the afternoon of the 38th Festival. So do we! ”
"Today is Women's Day?" Shin Shin has been confused these days.
Liu Mei smiled: "You don't know? Then how did you get out of the unit? ”
Wen Jun said meaningfully: "It seems that there is another hidden secret." Let's go and eat together in the evening. Give us an explanation!"
The three of them talked and laughed and walked around for a while, Xinxin bought two sets of clothes, and Wen Jun and Liu Mei also had their own gains. The three of them saw that it was not early, so they found a hot pot restaurant to settle dinner.
Wen Jun has just raised his salary recently and is in a good mood. He is also the object of slaughter today. "Tell me, what do you want to eat?" Wen Jun said to Liu Mei and Xinxin with a big grin.
The two of them were not polite, they took the menu and picked their favorites and ordered a lot, Wen Jun saw how many more things he added, and beckoned the waiter to serve the food.
In a short time, meat and vegetables were placed on the table, and three women gathered around the steaming pot, shabu shabu, and began to chat.
Shin Shin was the main speaker, focusing on the events of these days after her mother-in-law returned. Wen Jun and Liu Mei were listeners, occasionally making a comment or two.
After Xinxin finished speaking, Wen Jun was the first to raise his hand to speak: "I really can't understand why the two old people in your family can't watch their children cook at home." Even if your mother-in-law is sick now, what about before? Why would you want to come back and cook? Grandma Zhang is so old, and she is not alone in watching children and cooking. ”
"And your father-in-law," Liu Mei also interjected, "My father-in-law cooks in our house." ”
Xinxin sighed and said, "My father-in-law has to go out to buy vegetables every day, for an hour and a half in the morning and an hour and a half in the afternoon. ”
Liu Mei was a little surprised when she heard this: "The supermarket is very close. The wet market is not far away. Doesn't your father-in-law always ride a bicycle there, and it takes only fifteen minutes to go back and forth? And why do you have to go twice a day? ”
Wen Jun also said: "I go grocery shopping every day, why don't it take so long." I'm not an old lady, but I don't like to go shopping. ”
Xinxin said helplessly: "Buy groceries in the morning." Buy steamed buns in the afternoon. My father-in-law said that the dishes in the morning were fresh, and the steamed buns in the afternoon were just out of the pot, that is, they came out late, and they had to wait for a while every day. ”
Wen Jun said disapprovingly: "In this case, why don't you go later?" Especially now that it's winter, you can buy a little more a day when you buy vegetables and steamed buns. There was no need to make another trip the next day. My parents are like this, they are at home watching the children cook and wash clothes, nothing is delayed, I just eat when I go home. Look, am I fat again? ”
Liu Mei interrupted her and said, "Don't crook the building." Shin Shin, I have many colleagues who cook and eat by themselves, and in order to save trouble and time, they buy food once on weekends, which can be enough to eat for a week. You can tell your father-in-law that you don't have to run twice a day. ”
Xinxin shook her head and said, "I told him." But my father-in-law said to buy fresh and delicious food every day. Hmph, when Mu Nan and I went back to our hometown, their family didn't even have a refrigerator, and the family could eat dumplings once from the Chinese New Year's Eve to the fifth or sixth of the new year, and I didn't see them say that fresh was delicious. ”
Wen Jun paused and said: "It's clear, that is, your father-in-law wants to go out for a stroll by himself, and your mother-in-law feels a loss by watching the children cook at home." I want to pass the buck both times, and you are the one who suffers in the end. ”
Xinxin nodded with a bitter face, which was considered a tacit acquiescence.
Liu Mei looked at Xinxin, and stopped talking. When Wen Jun saw it, he pushed her and said, "Sister-in-law, what are you doing?" It seems to be constipated. ”
Liu Mei laughed angrily at her and said, "you." I have something to say, I don't know if I should tell Shin Shin or not. ”
Xinxin asked curiously, "What's the matter?" Sister, say it quickly. ”
Liu Mei thought for a while before she spoke, "You know what? What did your mother-in-law say to the outside world? ”
Xinxin and Wen Jun asked in unison, "What did you say?" ”
She said: Shin Shin doesn't do anything when she goes home every day, and she is alone at home. She often comes home early and tells everyone that she is going home to prepare food for you. ”
Xinxin didn't believe it at first: "No, I have been doing half of it with her recently." She's not going to go out and talk nonsense. ”
Wen Junqi said: "How do you know what she said?" ”
Liu Mei smiled: "It's not all our mother-in-law who said it." ”
Wen Jun slapped the case and said, "Then it won't be wrong." Aren't she and Xinxin her mother-in-law particularly good? ”
When Xinxin heard this, she became angry: "Why is she like this!" I still take the solid heart to her! ”
Wen Jun also hugged the grievances and said: "I want to let people say that she is diligent, and I want to force you to work, the abacus is very loud." Didn't she come back early and tell people that she was coming back to cook? Then you can let her do it later. From now on, you will do the same as she said, go home and do nothing, just rest. Let her want to be ** again, and want to set up a memorial arch, so beautiful for her! ”
"But......" Xinxin hesitated a little after hearing this. (To be continued.) )
PS: I saw a friend comment that he couldn't see my reply. This one...... Mainly because, in fact, I am a very boring person, so I am afraid that people will say that my reply is also boring. For example, the best response I can think of is "Thank you for your support, I'll work hard." Well, it's boring, isn't it? Well, you can laugh if you want. I walked away silently by myself...... Continue diving.
