The blue sky, the green fields, and a long path with wild flowers blooming along the roadside extend all the way to Wangjia Village.
Qian Shulan pushed the baby slowly towards the village entrance. After the original old tree was cut down, a new poplar tree was planted in its place.
After a few years, it has grown into lush branches and leaves, and it is a good place for villagers to cool off in the hot summer.
When they arrived at the place, Qian Shulan took the small stool that was hanging on the handlebars of the stroller and greeted everyone.
"Aunt, you're taking your granddaughter out for a walk again."
"yes."
"Aunt, your granddaughter is so pretty."
Qian Shulan was smiling, not bragging, she took good care of her baby. She fed her baby milk at regular times and regular amounts every day, and also had grapes and bananas (bought at No. 153). The baby grew white and plump, with arms like lotus root nodes, and skin as white and tender as tofu.
Paired with the floral vest and shorts she made herself, she looked amazing.
She took off the little straw hat on the baby's head.
The baby was babbling as he chased the straw hat, as if he wanted to snatch it away.
Qian Shulan took out a palm-leaf fan and fanned her, and the baby grinned again.
Others also gathered around and looked at the baby.
Zhou Xuemei also came with her twins.
The two little guys rushed forward like cannonballs, and Zhou Xuemei followed closely behind.
"Grandma, I want to eat some fruit!"
Qian Shulan was stunned for a moment and realized that the grapes she gave them last time had been eaten.
Qian Shulan took a cloth bag from the handle of the stroller, which contained washed grapes, some green and some purple.
Some villagers smiled at Qian Shulan and said, "Oh, Auntie, this is a rare thing. Where did you get it?"
Qian Shulan smiled and said, "My son-in-law brought me back from the county town. There are only a few strings left for the children."
The other children looked at the twins with envy.
Qian Shulan thought about it and decided to give one to each of the children. When the children saw the grapes still with water stains, they subconsciously wiped their hands on their bodies and reached out to take the grapes.
After tasting one, it was extremely sweet.
Qian Shulan grabbed a handful and asked Zhou Xuemei to watch the two children eat. "There are cores in it, don't let them swallow it."
Zhou Xuemei quickly took it.
Qian Shulan feeds the baby alone. The seven-month-old baby can eat fruit, but because his throat is narrow and he has no teeth, the fruit needs to be broken into smaller pieces.
Qian Shulan used a small spoon to scoop some food for her.
The baby especially likes eating grapes. He jumps and dances with joy every time he takes a bite.
At this time, someone else came over. Qian Shulan looked up and saw that it was Chen Yue'e. She moved a small stool and sat next to Qian Shulan. She asked seriously, "Hey, have you heard? There was a fight in Wang Ligui's family. Qi Dahua and Gong Suzhen had a fight."
Qian Shulan shook her head, somewhat amused, "Why?"
"Isn't it because Chen Juhong wanted to split up the family business and Qi Dahua refused, so she started fighting with Gong Suzhen?"
Qian Shulan was stunned for a long time and couldn't understand the logic behind it.
Qi Dahahua is Wang Ligui's daughter-in-law, and is about the same age as Qian Shulan.
Gong Suzhen is Qi Dahua’s daughter-in-law, and she was the elementary school teacher who taught Zhengkang.
Chen Juhong is Qi Dahua's eldest daughter-in-law.
"The eldest daughter-in-law wants to split the family, why did Qi Dahua and the younger daughter-in-law fight?"
Chen Yue'e looked at Qian Shulan with a look that said "Are you stupid?" "Don't you know why Chen Juhong wants to split up the family? It's because Gong Suzhen doesn't work all day. Anyone would be happy about this."
Since Wang Danna replaced Gong Suzhen as a private teacher, she has lost her job. Due to health reasons, she can't earn many work points.
Chen Juhong was very dissatisfied and naturally did not want her family to suffer this loss, so she made a fuss about splitting up the family business.
"It has happened several times. Qi Dahua could hold her ground before, but now even her eldest son is not on her side. She is now fighting with Gong Suzhen. She is ordered to get out of the field."
As the two were talking, one of the most talked about people, Chen Juhong, came over with two children who looked like mud monkeys.
Seeing her, Chen Yue'e didn't mind making a fuss. "Juhong, I heard there was a quarrel in your family this morning. Is that true?"
Chen Juhong didn't feel ashamed at all. In her opinion, her request was reasonable. The third son had been married for seven or eight years and should have separated the family long ago, but the old woman refused to do so. Wasn't she just reluctant to give up that little bit of power
Chen Juhong insisted on embarrassing her in public, "Yes, my mother-in-law and my third brother's wife had a quarrel."
Chen Yue'e asked mysteriously, "I heard it was because of the family division. Is that true?"
Qian Shulan looked at Chen Yue'e with some amusement. She didn't expect that her gossip factor was no worse than Sun Daqin's.
"It's true!" Chen Juhong began to talk about the quarrel between her mother-in-law and Gong Suzhen.
In fact, it's not very exciting. The main reason is that Gong Suzhen claims to be a teacher and can't deny her status. But she can cry. Whenever she cries, the youngest son feels distressed, so he quarrels with his mother.
Qi Dahua was furious when she saw her youngest son was seduced by his daughter-in-law. So she started to scold Gong Suzhen, saying how shameless she was.
The topic of the argument went off track, and the matter of dividing the family property was completely forgotten.
But Chen Juhong was very angry.
She felt angry just thinking about it now, but after she finished speaking, everyone's attitudes were completely different.
The old man said that Gong Suzhen shouldn't sow discord between the man and his mother.
The woman said that Qi Dahua was too nosy and she was jealous of the good relationship between the young couple.
Since people have different identities, they naturally speak differently.
So someone finally said, "Every family has its own problems!" to end the story.
Hearing this, Chen Juhong was unhappy.
She curled her lips and said to Qian Shulan who was feeding grapes to her child, "I think Third Aunt's family is very good. They separated the family very early. There has never been any conflict."
Qian Shulan didn't say anything.
Chen Juhong came over and asked her for advice, "Third Aunt, please tell me, how can I make my mother-in-law split the family? What were you thinking when you split the family?"
Speaking of which, the split of the Wang family was something no one expected.
Many people couldn't understand Qian Shulan's train of thought. She had finally managed to turn her sons into workers, but she quickly divided the family property. Moreover, she didn't follow anyone and just lived on her own. She was so free and easy.
The old people in the village all say Qian Shulan is stupid.
But now, seeing that he is taking care of his granddaughter and being the director of a chicken farm, he lives a pretty comfortable life.
Qian Shulan didn't want to get involved in other people's family affairs. She said perfunctorily, "My ideas are different from your mother-in-law's. It's useless for you to know."
Chen Juhong was a little unwilling to give up and wanted to ask again.
Zhou Xuemei pointed at a man on the path and said loudly, "Mom, look, is that your brother-in-law?"
Qian Shulan stretched her neck to look at the path. It was true!
Qian Shulan quickly put the spoon back into her bag, covered the lunch box, and stood up.
Ding-ling-ding-ling! Fang Yonglin propped himself up on one leg and stopped in front of Qian Shulan, "Mom, I'm here to serve the food."
Seeing him sweating profusely, Qian Shulan frowned and said, "Don't send food here in such hot weather. Look how hot you are."
Fang Yonglin wiped the sweat from his forehead. The shirt he was wearing was already mostly wet, and it was especially noticeable sticking to his back.
Zhou Xuemei also came over and said with a smile, "Brother-in-law, you are here."
Fang Yonglin nodded and pointed to the sacks behind him, "I'm here to deliver the vegetables."
Zhou Xuemei looked at his tanned face and felt a little embarrassed. "Brother-in-law, the weather is getting hotter. Don't send them to others in the future. Keep them for yourself. If you can't finish them, give them to others. We have them planted in our fields."
Fang Yonglin thought for a moment and said, "Then I will exchange the vegetables for food and send it to my eldest brother and his family!" He turned to Qian Shulan and said, "Mom, I will send the vegetables to the old house first."
Qian Shulan nodded and said, "After you deliver the food, come to my place to eat. I will go back and make you something to eat now."
Fang Yonglin said "ah" cheerfully.
Then he hopped on the bicycle and rode away a long way.
Qian Shulan also waved goodbye to others and walked away pushing the baby.
After the people walked away, Chen Yue'e was amazed, "I don't know how my third sister-in-law found such a filial son-in-law. He keeps sending food to me in such hot weather. I'm so envious."
When I think of my son-in-law, who is nowhere to be seen except during the Chinese New Year and other festivals, I feel so frustrated by the comparison.
Others were also envious.
Zhou Xuemei also thinks her mother-in-law is a capable person. Not only are her son and daughter-in-law filial, but her daughter and son-in-law also care about her. But this is what her mother-in-law deserves. Her mother-in-law has a good heart and never speaks ill of her son and daughter-in-law. She never sows discord. The most important thing is that her mother-in-law is reasonable and fair. She is not too biased. She thinks that when her two sons grow up, she will also be such a mother-in-law.
When Qian Shulan got home, she immediately went to the kitchen to cook for Fang Yonglin.
This silly boy, why is he sending vegetables here in such a hot day? What if they get sunburned
Qian Shulan fried a plate of scrambled eggs with leeks, and fried a plate of cicada monkeys with oil!
I also made tomato and egg soup and served it with fragrant white rice.
When Fang Yonglin came over, the food was ready.
Seeing his mother-in-law carrying the soup carefully, he quickly took it.
Qian Shulan went to the kitchen to get chopsticks with a smile and urged him, "Eat quickly!"
Looking at the food, it was definitely of the standard for distinguished guests. Fang Yonglin felt extremely satisfied. Although he didn't have a mother to love him, he still had a mother-in-law.
"Mom, your cooking skills are amazing!"
Qian Shulan smiled so much that wrinkles appeared on her face. She kept picking up food for him, "If it tastes good, eat more!"
Fang Yonglin nodded, took two bites of rice, and suddenly thought of something, so he put down his chopsticks and said, "Mom, Dana is pregnant!"
Qian Shulan was extremely surprised, "Really?"
After receiving Fang Yonglin's affirmative answer, Qian Shulan quickly stood up and said, "You eat first. I'll go to the chicken farm and pick up a basket of eggs for you to take back to Dana!"
Fang Yonglin didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "Mom, no need!"
Qian Shulan's face turned serious, "How can we not use it! She is eating the portion for two people now, she needs to be nourished!"
"There's enough food at home, and the department store also has eggs."
Qian Shulan curled her lips and said, "Come on, forget it. The eggs in your department store are all supplied by our production team. You only produce half a pound of eggs a month. Do you think I don't know? You might just go to the black market to buy expensive eggs again."
Fang Yonglin felt a little guilty.
"I'm telling you, those country folks who sell eggs have been storing them for who knows how many days. They're not fresh anymore, and the yolk may have already fallen out. The ones I bring you are definitely fresh. Trust me!"
Fang Yonglin couldn't convince her, so he had to let her go.
He sighed, turned his head and glanced at the baby. Seeing that she was looking at him with her big black eyes, he smiled at her and said, "Baby, what's your name?"
The little baby blew bubbles and blinked at him. Fang Yonglin was simply overwhelmed by her cuteness. If his child was so cute, he would probably wake up laughing in his dreams.
Qian Shulan was riding Fang Yonglin's bicycle at a very fast speed.
In less than five minutes, he came over with a basket of eggs, and there seemed to be two living creatures in the sack on the back seat of the car.
Seeing Fang Yonglin frowning and looking puzzled, Qian Shulan hurriedly explained, "I'm worried that if I take too many eggs, they will go bad over time, so I'll give you two hens. You can raise them to lay eggs, and if you want to eat chickens, just kill them."
Fang Yonglin twitched his lips, "Mom, but my family has no place to raise chickens."
Qian Shulan was surprised, "Why is there no place? Isn't there a yard?"
Fang Yonglin imagined it this way: his grandfather was sitting under a paulownia tree playing chess with a guard, and then a hen flew onto the chessboard and left a pile of chicken shit.
He could imagine how gloomy his grandfather's face was, and he shivered and opened his mouth to refuse.
Qian Shulan's face turned serious. "This is not for you to eat. This is for my daughter. Why are you refusing?"
Okay! He won’t say anything! The old lady is angry!
After he finished his meal, he went to the water tank to wash the dishes. Just as he was about to tie the bamboo basket to the back seat, a person suddenly rushed in from outside the door.
"Mom, please save me!"
They both turned around to look! It was Wang Shouyi!
The author has something to say: Although the previous plot is a bit bloody, I think it is very necessary.
The heroine’s current identity is not only a mother, but also a teacher. She has to reshape the three views of her sons and daughters-in-law.
Among the students in this world, there are smart ones like Wang Shouli and Zhou Xuemei, obedient ones like Wang Shouren and Sun Daqin, stupid ones like Li Chunhua, and naturally there are disobedient ones like Wang Shouyi.
She naturally has to teach students according to their aptitude. Otherwise, why do so many people fail, but only the heroine succeeds
ps: The heroine's behavior in the next chapter might be a bit cruel, so I'm warning you in advance!!!
As for heartwarming scenes, does my chapter count
