Chapter 123: Separate Beds
Because he planned to sleep with Mao Mao in the living room, after dinner, Yu Jiangbin discussed with Zhang Yuan about buying a new bed.
Zhang Yuan thought for a while and said, "There's a small bed in the small room below, isn't it?" My brother turned out, we put it in there. ”
Yu Jiangbin said: "I remember that it was a single person, and we can't sleep, right?" ”
Zhang Yuan said: "Actually, Maomao should have been separated from each other a long time ago, because I was pregnant and gave birth to a child, so I delayed this matter." Now it's better to let him divide it. Yu Jiangbin was right to think about it, and the two of them called Mao Mao to reason with him and split the bed. Maomao was a sensible child, so he agreed at that time. The next day, Yu Jiangbin and Yu's father brought up the small bed and placed it in the living room, and at night, they divided the bed for Maomao.
After settling Maomao to sleep, Yu Jiangbin and his family went back to the hut. After a while, Zhang Yuan was not at ease, and wanted to get up and take a sneak look, Yu Jiangbin pulled her and didn't let her go, saying, "The children have to pass this pass." Mao Mao is asleep, don't scare him again. Zhang Yuan had to lie back on the bed, but she couldn't sleep after tossing and turning. In the middle of the night, she was breastfeeding her little daughter in a daze, and she listened to the sound of sobbing in the living room. She fed her daughter milk, but she couldn't hold back, and quietly got up and went to the living room.
When Zhang Yuan entered, Mao Mao was sobbing and crying, her small body shrunk into a ball, hiding in the corner of the bed, as if she was half asleep and half awake. Zhang Yuan's heart softened when she saw it, and she went over and hugged Mao Mao over and hugged her back to her room. As soon as I entered the door, I saw Yu Jiangbin sitting on the edge of the bed, looking out, seeing her carrying the child in, shaking her head helplessly, and reaching out to take Maomao over. That night, a family of four slept in a squeezed hut all night.
When they got up in the morning, Yu Jiangbin and Zhang Yuan repeatedly matched each other, and they must let Maomao divide the bed well, and they can't toss back and forth like this. Zhang Yuan also knew that this was not good for Maomao, so she endured her distress and agreed. It's just that in the next few nights, Zhang Yuan slept very unsteadily, and even woke up several times a night with Yu Jiangbin. When Grandma Zhang heard about it, she specially boiled some soothing soup for Zhang Yuan to drink, and asked Yu Jiangbin to drink some too. Yu's mother felt a little uncomfortable when she saw it, although she said "hard work for the old in-laws", but privately began to complain about why Yu Jiangbin didn't tell his mother first about something, but told his mother-in-law.
Yu Jiangbin knew that his mother was small-minded, so he explained: "It's not a big deal, your daughter-in-law casually told her mother, and the old lady made some soup when she was idle." Not really. ”
When Yu's mother heard this, she whispered: "As far as her family likes to do this showy thing, she really has the heart to give us that big house, it's not better than anything." ”
Yu Jiangbin was afraid that the topic of the house would be unpleasant again, so he hurriedly said: "Mom, I have to go to the company tomorrow to be busy, and the family can't take care of it, so your daughter-in-law's month will be handed over to you." ”
Yu's mother smiled when she heard this: "You still need to tell me." I know better than you about the things in the confinement. ”
Having said that, in Zhang Yuan's opinion, Yu's mother, who understands, is far less than Yu Jiangbin. At the first meal, Yu's mother starved Zhang Yuan.
In the past few days, Zhang Yuan's meals were all made by Yu Jiangbin, and Yu's mother was made by others, so neither mother nor son felt tired. But as soon as Yu Jiangbin went to work, Yu's mother was equivalent to cooking two meals, one for everyone's meal and one for Zhang Yuan's confinement meal. The old lady was a little too busy. According to Yu Jiangbin and Zhang Yuan's meaning, let's just eat confinement dinner together. But the old man and the old lady are used to being thrifty, and they feel that Zhang Yuan's confinement meal is too extravagant, not to mention the chicken, duck and fish, just the jujube lotus seeds or something are more expensive than the same, and she eats it herself, everyone eats it purely arrogant and lascivious, so she doesn't agree to anything.
Most of the confinement meals Yu Jiangbin made for Zhang Yuan were made in soup, in order to have more milk. But it takes a long time to make soup, and Yu's mother has no experience in making it for the first time, so she makes it late, and the soup has not yet been cooked when it comes to meals. The other confinement meals made by Yu's mother are all for the purpose of saving. Now that there is one main soup dish missing, Zhang Yuan has not been able to eat enough.
When the food was brought over, Zhang Yuan could see that the portion was less, she was a straight person, and without thinking about it, she said directly to Yu's mother: "Mom, this rice is not enough to eat!" ”
When Yu's mother heard this, her face was a little sneering, and she hurriedly said, "I stewed a pig's trotter peanuts, that's good, you eat it first." ”
Zhang Yuan believed it to be true, so she didn't say anything more. Who knew that after the meal, she didn't see the shadow of the pig's trotters and peanuts, so she cleaned up the dishes and chopsticks and brought them to the kitchen, just to see when the stewed pig's trotters would be good. When I walked over, I saw that the time displayed on the electric pressure cooker would take half an hour to get better. Zhang Yuan turned around and went back to the house, feeling unhappy in her heart. Yu Jiangbin just finished eating and came back to the room, and as soon as he wanted to lie down, he was pulled up by Zhang Yuan and said, "Go get me something to eat." ”
Yu Jiangbin was stunned, he obviously saw that his mother brought the food to Zhang Yuan, why did he have to make another one now? He asked, "How?" My mom doesn't make it delicious? ”
Zhang Yuan glared at him and said, "It's not that it's not delicious, it's not enough to eat!" ”
Yu Jiangbin was even more confused, and said, "What...... How not enough to eat? Do less? ”
Zhang Yuan told him what happened, then patted his stomach and said, "I'm still hungry, even if you fry two eggs, I'll fill it up first." ”
Yu Jiangbin listened, didn't say anything more, and walked out. When he entered the kitchen, he saw that Yu's mother was washing the pots and dishes, so he was not very happy and said, "Mom, why did you stew pig's trotters so late?" Zhang Yuan, that's still waiting to eat. ”
Seeing that her son was not good, Yu's mother hurriedly explained: "I'm ...... Isn't that too busy? You see that I haven't been idle all day, I have to watch Maomao, I have to clean up the house, I have to buy vegetables, I have to cook a big family's meal, and I have to cook her confinement meal. Alas, I can't even straighten my waist. ”
Yu Jiangbin saw his mother complaining to him, and he was embarrassed to say anything about her, so he changed his tone and said: "Then you see if there is anything else to eat, get some for Zhang Yuan first, she is still hungry." ”
Yu's mother spread her hands and said, "It's all food that can be made by people's heads, how can there be any leftovers?" I just brought her food. It's just one trotter, and the rest is in full portion. Where's starving her? You, just listen to your daughter-in-law's words, your mother and I are so bad, can you still starve her mother-in-law this month? You treat me as your grandmother! ”
Yu Jiangbin's grandmother is a powerful person, and Yu Jiangbin's father is a well-known filial son, as long as Yu Jiangbin's grandmother says east, he will never go west. Back then, Yu's mother and mother-in-law were not less angry when they were together. When Yu Jiangbin was a child, he could always see his mother wiping tears behind people's backs. Most of it was because of being scolded by my grandmother, and half of it was because my father was not facing my mother but was looking at my unreasonable grandmother. Compared with her grandmother, Yu's mother's temper couldn't be better, and she never spoke loudly to her son and daughter-in-law. How could such a person be embarrassed for Zhang Yuan?
So as soon as Yu's mother said this, Yu Jiangbin was embarrassed first, and said with a smile: "Mom, look at what you said." I'm not going to ask that. With that, he put on an apron and started cooking for Zhang Yuan.
