In the third trimester of pregnancy, Tian Jing found it increasingly difficult to move around. When her two-and-a-half-year-old daughter was acting naughty again, she really couldn't take care of her. He didn't dare to take her out to play, for fear that she would run away and he wouldn't be able to chase her.
Ji Huai had to work overtime to make money, develop markets, organize technology, and take care of the sales department at the same time. He couldn't be distracted. He had to take one day off every ten days and half a month, and he had to deal with things.
He was very tired, but when he came home and saw Tian Jing who had severe morning sickness, she was thin, haggard, and her skin was sallow, and she was listless. His heart was broken.
She will give birth at the end of this month and has no energy to take Ji Tianqi out to play. Her daughter stays in this dark little house all day long and is not as lively as before. She also knows that her mother is uncomfortable, so she doesn't dare to make trouble with her mother. She lies limply on the window, watching. I saw my brother walking the dog downstairs, pointing his fleshy little finger downstairs, and said in a muffled voice, "Dad, there is a dog~~"
Ji Huai did not hesitate anymore and immediately called Tian's house and asked Tian's mother to come and take care of Tian Jing in advance.
Tian's mother felt sorry for her daughter. Although she was scared and uneasy about the new environment, she agreed and wanted to go as soon as possible.
In her opinion, local eggs and old hens are good things to replenish the body. She bought a lot of eggs and even caught the old hens at home, but she couldn't bring them alive on the plane. She was very stubborn and insisted on taking it, saying that the things in the city were not good and that these were all natural and could replenish the body.
In the end, she went through a lot of trouble to bring it over and had to pack it in a vacuum bag for freezing. However, she didn't find it troublesome and made sure to take it over. She also brought a lot of dry specialties that Tian Jing liked to eat.
The airport is in the provincial capital. Brother Tian has worked there before. Although he has never taken a plane, he knows where it is. Before Tian’s mother went there, she went to a gold store and bought two pairs of silver bracelets. She hadn’t bought anything for her granddaughter yet. People buy silver bracelets to ward off evil spirits and ensure peace.
It was Tian's mother's first time on a plane. She received a call from Tian Jing before entering. She was told to turn off her phone after getting on the plane. During the whole process, she was uneasy and nervous. It could even be said that she was afraid. She was afraid that she would be laughed at and that she would trouble others. , fearing that others would look at her in a bad light, the whole process was a bit painful, but her determination to take care of her daughter never wavered.
Ji Huai bought her a seat by the window. The wonderful feeling of the plane flying eased her mood. She looked at the scene outside the window with surprise and shock in her eyes.
The plane flew for three hours and everyone else fell asleep, but she didn't dare to close her eyes.
When the plane landed, she remembered Tian Jing's words and hurriedly followed the queue in front for fear of falling behind, waiting to pick up her luggage.
Half an hour later.
Tian Jing saw her mother walking out of the door, nervously and confusedly looking at the unfamiliar environment around her, her eyes wandering.
"...Mom..." she called out to the other end, tears rolling down her face.
The moment Tian's mother saw her, her tense nerves suddenly relaxed, like an old child who had found support. When she saw her crying, she couldn't help but cry too, and tears fell down her wrinkled face.
Ji Huai stepped forward to take her luggage over. Tian Jing looked at Ji Tianqi and asked her to call her grandma. Although her daughter also called her, Tian's mother was a stranger to her. She was wary in her little eyes and hid behind Behind his father, he looked timidly at Tian's mother who smiled lovingly.
Tian's mother and Ji's mother are not much different in age, but they are several years older. They have been working hard these years, and their hair has turned mostly gray. They have been seriously ill in the past few years, and they have aged a lot.
Tian Jing saw that her daughter was not close to her mother. This feeling was heartbreaking, but there was nothing she could do about it.
Ever since Ji Tianqi was born, she has only heard Tian's mother's voice on her mobile phone. Tian's family is in a mountainous area, and the signal there is not good. They haven't even made a few video calls. They haven't met many times, so how can they have feelings for each other
"Qiqi, didn't you just call grandma last time? You even sang a song." Ji Huai pulled his daughter out and spoke in a slower voice. Faced with Tian's mother's disappointment, he explained, "We'll get to know each other in a few days." , Emotions come from everywhere.”
Tian Jing went up and hugged Tian's mother affectionately, took a breath, pursed her lips and said with a smile, "Yes, Qiqi is not afraid of life, and she will stick to you in a few days. Mom, are you hungry too? Let's go eat first."
"Your belly is so big, so be careful." Mother Tian's eyes fell on her again, and she supported her and warned her carefully, with worry in her eyes.
Tian Jing wanted to cry again, tears welling up in her eyes, and she nodded vigorously.
Tian's mother only had a few clothes in her luggage, and the rest were all for Tian Jing. They went back home first, and then found a place to eat.
We went to the shopping mall for dinner. It was bright and bright inside. Tian's mother had never been to a place like this before. She became nervous and uneasy. She took Tian Jing's hand and didn't want to go in. She wanted to persuade Ji Huai, but she was afraid of angering her son-in-law, so she could only Bear with it.
In her view, it was a very expensive place that she couldn't afford.
After Tian Jing persuaded her for a long time, the other party reluctantly followed her, but she was so nervous that her palms became sweaty. Seeing her mother, the tip of Tian Jing's nose kept getting sore, as if she had just come to this city.
"Mom, it's not expensive at all. I used to come here often when I was working. There are very few small restaurants here, they are all shopping malls like this." Tian Jing comforted her.
Tian's mother felt much more relaxed. In her opinion, that was the difference between developed cities and them.
Ji Huai held his daughter in his arms and asked them to keep in touch with each other. No matter how strong and sensible Tian Jing was, she was just a child in front of Tian's mother. She hadn't seen her for more than two years, and she missed her mother too.
The first meal was in a harmonious atmosphere. Ji Tianqi was at her cute moment, so the atmosphere was much more harmonious with her around.
After dinner, the group went home.
Time was tight just now, Tian's mother hadn't eaten yet, so Ji Huai brought the things back first. He hurriedly put the chicken in the refrigerator, put the eggs away, and went downstairs. Tian's mother and Tian Jing were downstairs and didn't come up.
Now, Tian's mother saw this small rental house, which was still an old elevator room. She was so distressed that she shed tears, and her heart hurt like a knife. Is it right or wrong for Tian Jing to leave her hometown and marry in a big city? She doesn't know anymore.
She thought that big cities were great and that her daughter would enjoy happiness when she married here and would not have to work as hard as she did. However, the houses in the countryside were not so small, so they were still rented here.
Tian Jing had already expected Tian's mother's reaction. Her eyes were burning and she smiled and comforted, "Mom, this is only temporary. You can buy a house when you make money in the future."
"When will that happen? If you had gone back home to be a teacher in the town, and then married a teacher, maybe..." Ji Huai and his daughter went out, and Tian's mother said this. Before she could finish, she pulled him. Tian Jing's hand couldn't help but ask, "Xiao Jing, do you regret it?"
"No regrets." Tian Jing answered her without hesitation, pursed her lips and added with a smile, "In the future, Qiqi and the others will be children born in big cities, and they will live a better life than me, not to mention suffering. Moreover, Ji Huai It’s not bad. Although we rent a house, most people in big cities rent. Apart from not having a house, our quality of life is not bad. His salary is high, and my salary will be high when I go out to find a job. We can choose to stay here and buy a house in the future. Or we can buy a house and live in a small city, but if we are in a small city, we don’t have the right to choose.”
Tian's mother heard that Ji Huai's salary was tens of thousands a month, and then remembered that Tian Jing's salary was ten thousand or twenty thousand a month in the past, and she felt a lot of balance in her heart. The teachers in the town were two thousand or three thousand a month, which was incomparable.
My daughter is right. When you have money, you have the right to choose. If you can make money and have savings, do you still care about renting a house? She also felt that her daughter and son-in-law both had good incomes. How could they earn so much money in a small city
Since Tian Mu came, Ji Huai could clearly feel that Tian Jing was in a much better mood and had more smiles on her face. Tian Mu had been making soup for her for several days, and her face became rosier after drinking it. He could Go to work with more peace of mind.
The management in the company is chaotic. Although it has improved a lot in the past few months, there are still shortcomings. The boss is indifferent and obsessed with his technical improvement. Seeing that he can manage, he wants to leave everything to him and only focus on technology.
There is technology and products, but if the product department and sales department cannot reach an agreement, problems often arise, and the ball is kicked back and forth, how can the product be sold
He began to focus on the external sales packaging, using previous resources, and wanted to tie the entire process into one line.
Everyone wished they had less to do, and Ji Huai took care of everything. They were relaxed and could better fish in troubled waters.
Tian's mother is very diligent. She lives not far away and is also in this building. She comes down after Ji Huai goes to work, washes, cooks and cleans. Her hands and feet are quick, Tian Jing is much more relaxed, and she is like a child pampered by her mother.
The relationship between Ji Tianqi and Tian's mother is getting closer and closer. Tiantian calls out to her grandma and says that her grandma's cooking is more delicious than her mother's cooking, so she has to eat her grandma's cooking.
Tian Jing is too bored to stay in her room. With Tian's mother here, she can take her children out for a walk. Every day they have to walk downstairs, go to the nearby square, play in the park, and go to the mall. Take a look.
The other side of Tian's house is not only mountains, but also mountains. Tian's mother is like an old child, curious about everything. She is timid and can only peek.
When Tian Jing buys food for her daughter, she will also buy a portion for Tian’s mother. The other party always refuses, “Mom won’t eat it, so you eat it.”
She said she had no appetite, so Tian's mother could only accept it. Ji Tianqi would share the taste with her grandmother and teach her how to eat it. Or if Tian Jing taught her, she would also be a little teacher to teach her grandmother.
Tian Jing is very patient and will slowly tell her mother what she knows. If you don't understand something, you will understand it once. If you haven't seen something before, you will know it after reading it once, right? If you haven't eaten it before, you will know it after eating it once.
She climbed out of a poor mountainous area, and was ridiculed and talked about as a country girl. Later, she gradually realized that the so-called "seen the world" was actually "what can make perfect", and it was no big deal. Just see you.
After Tian's mother stayed there for a week, she had already adapted. She was no longer restrained and nervous. She was more proficient at buying food in the supermarket than she was. She dared to walk in a nearby park alone, and she would look at others dancing in the square. If he stayed a little longer, he might jump behind him a few times.
Tian Jing moved out the oven she bought before. Because Tian's mother took care of Ji Tianqi, she also had time to cook, bake cakes, make biscuits, make some snacks, and think about all kinds of delicious things.
When Ji Huai came back today, they were baking biscuits. The smell of biscuits filled the room. Tian's mother watched Tian Jing make it a few times and learned the lesson.
At this time, Tian Jing and Ji Tianqi were sitting on the table, eating biscuits brought out by Tian's mother, one big and one small smiling. That smile infected him, and the fatigue all over his body eased a lot.
"Grandma made biscuits. Dad will eat one." Ji Tianqi held up the biscuits and went to feed Ji Huai.
Ji Huai walked over, squatted down, bit the biscuit she extended, looked at her lovingly and stretched out his hand to rub the top of her head, "Are you good today? Did you make trouble with your mother?"
"No." She grabbed another biscuit and nibbled it with a hint of arrogance, "I'm very good! Help mom."
Ji Huai was amused by her, and Tian Jing and Tian's mother also laughed. He hugged her again, and he did not hesitate to praise his daughter. Everyone could feel that he loved her from the bottom of his heart.
Tian's mother has been here for a while and found that the two have a good relationship. Her son-in-law loves people, loves Tian Jing, loves Ji Tianqi, and respects herself. She is quite satisfied with Ji Huai.
Most men in the mountains are somewhat chauvinistic, including Tian's father, who rarely does housework, but Ji Huai does not. He goes to work when he goes to work, and when he comes home from work, he also washes dishes, mops and takes care of the children. He does all the work he can do, and he doesn't hesitate to take care of Tian Jing.
As the birth was approaching, Tian Jing had trouble sleeping and suffered leg cramps at night. Tian's mother suggested that she take care of Tian Jing so that Ji Huai could rest better since he had to go to work the next day.
He didn't agree, because he knew that Tian's mother might not be as useful as him, and Tian's mother might ask her to endure it. She would also say that giving birth to a child would always happen, and Tian Jing would inevitably feel aggrieved.
That night, she had another cramp and was gasping for breath.
Ji Huai rubbed her legs and comforted her, and occasionally scolded the person in her stomach. She was not convinced and kicked Tian Jing's stomach with his calf.
"You can stay here for five more days. I advise you to come out on time. Do you hear that you can't renew the lease?" He touched her belly and said seriously.
Tian Jing was kicked in the stomach again, she touched her belly and smiled helplessly.
When her symptoms subsided, he hugged her and lay down. Tian Jing stayed in his arms and held his hand affectionately. Ji Huai said softly, "When you get up tomorrow morning, you clean up. I will take you to the hospital in the afternoon. I I’m afraid that if the baby is born early, the mother won’t be able to handle it.”
"We can prepare the delivery package and everything later. Qiqi and Mom will sleep with her at night, and I will go to the hospital to accompany you."
Tian Jing was just about to talk to him about this topic, but she was afraid that she would suddenly make a move. After all, Tian’s mother was not familiar with the place, and she might be confused. She didn’t know what to do, so she immediately agreed, “Okay, I’ll tell mom tomorrow. "
"Yes." Ji Huai kissed her cheek.
"Have you been working hard lately?" She looked sideways at him and put her hands around his neck.
After these few months of supplementation and improvement, he has been able to handle technical matters, but now it is not just a technical issue.
She was going to have a baby, and there was nothing else she could do to help him.
Ji Huai didn't hide it, "It's a bit laborious, but once the process is streamlined, the management will be much better."
In this case, he will have greater say and save effort in all aspects.
Tian Jing looked at his frown and raised her slender hand to smooth it for him. Looking at the faint dark circles under his eyes, she couldn't help but say, "In the past, I thought you lived a comfortable life without so many worries and worries. , so you are not as mature as me. After all, you have to be a father. This is not good. You are forced to grow up during this period, and I feel very sorry for you. If you can choose, it would be nice to have no anxiety or pressure in your life. "
He has changed a lot, and it was forced out by the pressure on his shoulders. He grew up in a different environment than she did, and maybe he doesn't have to face this.
She lowered her eyes and said dullly, "If you married someone else, if she gave birth to a boy, maybe you wouldn't be so tired."
How nice would it be to live in Ji's house without renting a house, and Ji's father and mother would work hard to subsidize their grandson
Of course, one of the reasons for thinking this way is that she gave birth to two daughters, and she was very distressed when she thought that her daughters might encounter the injustice and suffer all kinds of suffering that she had experienced.
"How do you know that is the life I want?" Ji Huai asked her.
Tian Jing felt that she was right: "That way you won't be tired, and you can live a better life."
Ji Huai put his arm around her waist and his mellow voice echoed in the room, "You can be tired and happy at the same time. Because that person is you, I don't feel bitter. All my efforts are just to give you and your child a better life. If If it had been anyone else, I might have been just like a salted fish. If I had no motivation, I might not be able to live well."
These words made her so happy that she couldn't hide the smile on her lips. She turned to look at him, "Really?"
"Of course it's true." Looking at her close at hand, Ji Huai pecked the corner of her lips again and told the truth, "Because I like it, and I want to give you a good life because I like it, and I don't want you to suffer with me. , It’s too much suffering. How can there be so many what-ifs? Your appearance determines that I will no longer like others.”
He really likes her. He had a crush on her for a year in the previous company. He felt that she was good at everything and her whole person was shining. He admired independent and self-reliant girls, but he always felt that he was not worthy of her. After getting to know her, he wanted to marry her. Home hurts.
After the divorce in his previous life, he almost collapsed and his life was meaningless. Now he still thinks that she is good in everything, except that she is good. He just likes her very much.
Tian Jing snorted tenderly and crawled into his arms. She had no doubt that he liked her. When they were in love, Ji Huai didn't live with Ji's family. He loved her very much, otherwise she wouldn't have chosen to marry. There were many boys better than him, but she still chose him.
After returning to Ji's house, her parents' interference made her feel that her happiness dropped rapidly. She almost couldn't go on with him, and she felt extremely depressed. After moving out, even though she was renting a house, she didn't feel aggrieved at all. At least he loved her. The one who doted on her and loved her returned it to her.
Ji Huai lowered his head and whispered to her in her ear. Listening to her dragging voice and looking at him with her soft eyes, his heart really sank and he became very soft. There was love between her eyebrows and eyes. Very patient and gentle in tone.
In fact, he listened to his parents and asked her to find out her gender. Since then, her attitude towards him has changed. Such a scene has never happened. He is really sensitive to whether she loves him or not. He may have noticed it, but he didn't. Thinking about that, or not daring to think about it, I could only comfort myself that she might be too tired, or maybe she was busy, and it would be nice to have another child. At that time, he thought, if he didn’t check, both boys and girls would be born.
Who knew that there would be no chance later. He could feel that the relationship between husband and wife was changing. She did not love him as much as before. He kept trying to restore the relationship and treat her well, but he never thought that she would say divorce.
He couldn't think about it. Ji Huai was heartbroken when he thought about it now. He hugged her tighter and then kissed her.
"What are you doing~~" Tian Jing pushed him gently, and that tone made him feel anxious, and he wanted to pester her.
Hearing that she was going to the hospital early, Tian's mother quickly packed her things early and followed Ji Huai to send Tian Jing to the hospital. After packing, she rushed back to make soup and cook.
Tian Jing got her a bus card and a subway card. She has been teaching her how to take the bus and the subway this month, taking her to take the bus and subway over and over again. Now she can go back alone. Ji Huai also bought her a With her mobile phone, reading glasses, and newly bought clothes, people who don’t know her would not be able to tell that she is an old lady who has never been to the mountains, and may even think that she is a retired old lady.
Unexpectedly, as soon as she returned, Ji Huai called and said that Tian Jing's amniotic water had broken and she had entered the delivery room. She was shocked, but luckily she went to the hospital. She quickly made soup and rushed to the hospital.
Tian Jing's delivery went smoothly. She and Ji Huai gave birth to their second daughter that night. Mother and daughter were safe.
When Ji Tianqi was born, Ji's mother came to take care of her. When she saw that she had given birth to a daughter, she was extremely disappointed. Although she cooked and made soup, she had already begun to talk about the second child. She also kept telling her not to think too much and to get pregnant again next year. If you can carry it, you can safely conceive the second child.
At first, it was said that she would have two children. The only child was lonely, and there was no mention of having a boy. Later, when she found out that she was pregnant, she asked Ji Huai to tell her to check the gender.
How could Ji's mother take care of her as carefully as Tian's mother? Whose child is loved by others? She will show off in front of Ji's mother, but not in front of her own mother. With Ji Huai helping to take care of her, the birth was much more comfortable this time and she recovered quickly.
At noon on the day she was discharged from the hospital, she was drinking the soup Tian's mother had cooked for her, and said coquettishly, "Mom, I want to eat something else..."
"Mom will make it for you when you are out of confinement. Don't be greedy." Tian's mother hugged her little granddaughter and coaxed Tian Jing helplessly.
Ji Huai just came back from get off work and put aside the milk he bought for his daughter, "How are you today?"
"Much better." Tian Jing saw that he was in a better mood and was about to speak when she looked up and saw the two people at the door suddenly stopped talking and their expressions changed suddenly.
Ji Huai looked in her direction and saw Ji's father and mother standing at the door. The other party walked in directly with Ji Shanshan and Ji Miaomiao. Ji's mother's tone was not good, "I said you are really, too angry." You gave birth to a boy or a girl without even saying a word about the child?"
She saw Ji Huai and followed him.
Tian Jing didn't reply and didn't continue to drink the soup. Ji's family hadn't called them once since they moved out, and now that they were here, they probably didn't come to see her on purpose. They asked her if she was a boy or a girl, which was off-putting.
"Didn't you already know that?" Ji Huai replied expressionlessly.
Ji's mother still struggled a little. When she saw Tian's mother changing the child's diaper, she quickly walked over, stretched out her hand to lift off the quilt, and took a look.
"Huh." Tian's mother was frightened by her reckless actions and frowned at her.
Seeing that it was really a girl, Ji's mother's last hope was shattered. She looked at Tian Jing with a bad expression and was very irritated, "It's a girl again, why are they all girls?"
Sister-in-law Ji went to the construction site after confinement, and then got pregnant. This time it turned out that she was still a girl. She had already had two injections in a row. The doctor said that it would be difficult to conceive again and she could only give birth.
The other party went home to nurse the fetus, which was about five months old now. Unexpectedly, she caught Brother Ji cheating on her, and the two of them got into a fight two days ago. Sister Ji went directly to the hospital and was trying to preserve the fetus.
Ji's mother has a traditional tradition of favoring sons over daughters and doesn't want Sister-in-law Ji and Brother Ji to divorce. If the stepmother comes, there are two granddaughters here, and the family will be in a mess. Unless the woman outside gives birth to a son, she will agree to the divorce, otherwise she will He could only take care of Sister-in-law Ji, but this baby had to be given away.
Ji Huai's face was so dark that he stood up and hugged his daughter without letting Ji's mother get closer.
"You will regret it. You will have to raise three more." Ji's mother felt sad when she said this. She wanted to poke him in the head, but she just thought Ji Huai was stupid.
Ji Huai had a tough attitude: "We will raise these two. If you want to have a boy, you and dad can work hard."
These words made Father Ji so angry that he turned livid and yelled at him for being unworthy.
Ji Huai turned a deaf ear and only focused on coaxing his daughter. The nurse came and yelled, "This is a hospital. Do you think it's a vegetable market?!"
The two were frightened and immediately stopped talking. When they saw the two granddaughters making a fuss about going to see their mother, they scolded them fiercely and dragged them away.
