Compared with the previous eating and sleeping, the more he grows up, the cuter he becomes, he loves to hold his feet and stuff them into his mouth, gnaw them with relish, and often pick up his feet to play as soon as he bends over. When everyone was eating, they put the child on the small cart and let him play by himself, and he played with his hands and feet alone, and he was very busy and babbling.

Sometimes, when your son wakes up without crying or making trouble, he looks at you quietly and laughs, and Li Xiaocan instantly feels happy. The son is an angel, and when he plays obediently, he blooms with a pure and beautiful quiet light, and Li Xiaocan is deeply intoxicated. It is not so much that she gave her son life, but that her son made her realize the true beauty of life. Raising children is hard, but parents are willing to do it, probably because the light emitted by the children can make people feel happiness more deeply.

But this happiness, as soon as it fell into reality, changed for Li Xiaocan———— disagreement with her mother-in-law and the tense relationship made her unable to enjoy the happiness brought to her by her son in peace. It's like eating grapes, which are obviously delicious and want to eat them, but there are countless small grape seeds in them, which make people have to chew them slowly; It's like sand in your shoes, and every step hurts, but you can't take it off, so you can only endure the pain. She and her mother-in-law got along awkwardly and helplessly.

Li Xiaocan is playing with the baby with a ball, her mother-in-law is sitting at the door with the soles of her shoes, and the daughter-in-law next door A Fang is holding her daughter from the opposite road, her daughter is a month younger than the baby, her mother-in-law has known her for a long time, and the two chatted: "You went shopping?" ”

"Nope! I took the kids for a swim. Ah Fang said.

"Swimming? Can such a young child swim? The mother-in-law grinded the needle on the scalp.

"Of course you can, the child is swimming in the belly, and swimming has many benefits for the child and can enhance the physique." Ah Fang picked up her daughter and kissed her on the face.

"How much miles?" The mother-in-law began to inquire again.

"More than 30 yuan, it's very cheap to get a card, I got a card, 500 yuan can travel 14 times."

"It's a bit expensive!"

Li Xiaocan walked out with the child in his arms when he heard the sound.

"It's alright! My eldest son is also swimming, now two years old, rarely colds, good physique, and sleeps very well after swimming, and does not always wake up in the middle of the night. "Ah Fang's eldest son is a tiger-headed, a little fat man, very generous, and has a strong body at first glance.

"So good, where?" When the mother-in-law heard that the child slept well at night, she became interested. She herself is a light sleeper, as soon as the baby cries, she has to get up to soak in milk, sleep is a very important thing for her.

"It's not far, just in front of the bus stop, walk for fifteen minutes, you can try, anyway, when I gave birth to my daughter, after I was born, the hospital put her in the water, my daughter is not afraid, now she likes to swim very much." Ah Fang's own experience made her mother-in-law even more excited. After asking the name of the swimming pool, the three of them took their children excitedly.

With the mentality of trying it out, Li Xiaocan only chose a single swim, 58 yuan at a time. After the staff took off the baby's clothes, put on a swimming ring for the baby, and slowly put the baby into the pool. As soon as the baby entered the pool, he was very quiet, his little face was serious, not like he was always giggling, he stayed motionless in the water, and after a pause of more than ten seconds, he began to wave his little hands and feet.

"He seems to be a little scared." Li Xiaocan said.

"It's like that at first." Mother-in-law is confident.

The baby was kicking in the water, and suddenly, a stumble, the baby's body fell backwards, as if the whole body was about to fall into the deep water, and the left foot quickly kicked up before it floated up. Li Xiaocan was so frightened that his heart was raised in his throat, and then he looked at his son, his son was still expressionless, and the mother-in-law on the side was busy taking pictures of the baby with her mobile phone excitedly: "Baby, you are so good, the baby is here!" ”

Li Xiaocan didn't know how his son felt, but the moment he kicked his leg just now, it was really dangerous. After all, the pool is more than one meter deep, and although the environment here is elegant, with sofas, coffee tables, pools, and toys fully equipped, Li Xiaocan still feels scared.

The difficult fifteen minutes finally passed, and the parents-in-law gathered around the pool, excited, this was the baby's first swim. Adults often take for granted what they think is freshness and happiness on the baby who can't express it and has no power to resist, no one notices the moment when his son is just thrilling, but Li Xiaocan really feels the panic of his son falling into the water when his body is out of control, looking at the in-laws who are on the rise, Li Xiaocan can't say anything.

After dressing the baby, the group walked out and sat down in the living room.

"I think you are suitable for a membership card, it will be much cheaper if you get a membership card, only more than 30 yuan at a time, more than a dozen yuan cheaper than now, and more than 100 yuan cheaper if you pay a month. Many of our customers are on a monthly basis. "The staff walked over with a green card with VIP written on it.

Li Xiaocan didn't talk, and her mother-in-law answered enthusiastically: "How to calculate the monthly subscription?" ”

"500 yuan for 14 monthly subscriptions is very discounted."

"I can wash it three or four times a week."

"Yes, I don't need to talk about the benefits of swimming for children, so if you insist on exercising for a long time, it will be very beneficial to him, you can consider it."

The mother-in-law was tempted, turned her head and asked Li Xiaocan: "Get a card, exercise, you can come with Ah Fang in the future, and have a companion." ”

Li Xiaocan hesitated, the first was that she had no money, and the second was that she didn't want her son to swim too much, and she felt a little dangerous.

The mother-in-law saw Li Xiaocan's reluctance, raised her voice, and raised her chin high: "Forget it!" Never mind! I'll pay for it myself. He deliberately turned his head to his father-in-law, and his words were full of * flavor, and he said: "You pay!" ”

His son can't let his father-in-law pay, Li Xiaocan understands this truth, and hurriedly said: "Mom———, it's not that I'm reluctant, it's that I just saw the baby almost fall in the water, it's very dangerous, so I don't want to, how can I be reluctant to let him spend money, isn't all the money I earn for him?!" ”

Li Xiaocan wanted to explain, but it became a confrontation with her mother-in-law, and her mother-in-law was angry: "Why didn't I see it?!" Then he asked his father-in-law, "Did you see that?" ”

My father-in-law has always been my mother-in-law's little follower: "I didn't see it." ”

The mother-in-law stamped the conclusion word by word, and said loudly: "It's all seven or seven eight swimming, is it necessary to be so tormented and entangled?!" So many people are swimming, isn't it okay? Do you bring the child or do I bring it? I said I'll pay! ”

Li Xiaocan was overwhelmed by her mother-in-law's sudden anger, and every time her mother-in-law was angry and said, "Take your son away yourself!" I don't bring it anymore! In this case, Li Xiaocan had nothing to say, because she knew that she couldn't do it alone, so she had to be anxious on the side, her face was red and white: "Mom, I didn't mean that!" ”。

But the mother-in-law still didn't give up, forced her eyes to look at Li Xiaocan, and angrily instructed her father-in-law: "Get a card!" ”

Don't fight for steamed buns, she Li Xiaocan doesn't want to take advantage of her mother-in-law, otherwise she may be blamed by her mother-in-law behind her back: "She asked me to take care of the children, and let me pay for it myself!" I'm so tired that I don't have a penny! "Being heard by outsiders, isn't Li Xiaocan a proper evil daughter-in-law?!

"I'm coming! I got it! Li Xiaocan stopped his father-in-law, took the first step to the counter, and quickly calculated where there was still money in his heart———— it was too late to ask Zhang Gang for money; If you borrow money, you have to wait another three to five minutes for it to arrive; The last time I bought a silver bracelet, Alipay had already used a loan, and there were only more than 100 left; The balance of the five bank cards is zero, now there is only WeChat, I don't remember if there is any money in WeChat, in case there is no money in WeChat, there is also a micro loan, now the knife is on the neck, the arrow is already on the string, there is no way, I can only try it hard.

Li Xiaocan opened the WeChat payment code, and stretched it out to the salesman's nose with lightning speed, and his father-in-law was also reluctant to "pay", so Li Xiaocan successfully grabbed the opportunity to "pay".

I don't know if the money is enough, Li Xiaocan's nose is in a cold sweat, secretly worried, if there is no money, her mother-in-law despises herself even more, Li Xiaocan's hand holding the mobile phone is a little trembling, she hates this feeling of embarrassment because of money, especially this is related to her mother-in-law's attitude towards her.

The staff held the machine, Li Xiaocan stared closely at the scanning port that emitted red light, just one or two seconds was as long as a century, and the "drip" sound in anticipation finally remembered that Li Xiaocan had never felt that the sound of payment was so beautiful, and she was overjoyed———— payment was successful! Immediately breathed a sigh of relief, as if he had won a war.

The mother-in-law's face softened, no longer iron-blue, but it was still elongated, longer than a donkey's face, and her two eyes were drooping.

Li Xiaocan couldn't take care of her mother-in-law's face anymore, she had done her best, looking at the thirty-two yuan and five yuan under the change in the WeChat wallet, Li Xiaocan was extremely happy. She remembered that it was Zhang Gang who asked her to buy milk powder before, and she used Huabei, so she luckily stayed in WeChat, but she didn't expect it to play a role at the critical moment.

Li Xiaocan feels that her mother-in-law is suitable to be the Empress Dowager Cixi, and she can't listen to other people's different opinions, let alone tolerate the slightest opposition and questioning from others.

Along the way, the mother-in-law only talked to her father-in-law, the child was in the hands of the mother-in-law, and the three of them were talking, laughing, and lively, only Li Xiaocan followed silently with a bag on his back.

Li Xiaocan asked her mother-in-law very much, am I a stepmother?! I am also for the good of my son, why do all the opinions I put forward are like hurting my son! Li Xiaocan was extremely depressed, she should have been the closest person to the baby, the most precious person, but now she has become the number one opponent to stop her mother-in-law.
