The Journey Of The Peasant Mother-in-Law

Chapter 102

Zhou Shuren stroked his grandson’s skinny face, “I can’t do it without consideration. Jiang Sheng is the son-in-law who wants to spend the rest of his life with his daughter.”

The two of them felt really sorry when it came to their eldest daughter, and they have to think carefully about everything. Otherwise, they will be forever guilty to the original owners of the bodies they were in.

On the return journey, because the two children were too young, the speed of the ox cart was faster than before. After about an hour, it was getting dark. Zhulan and Zhulan carried the children all the way, and their arms were numb and stiff.

Xuemei and her husband had been waiting in the hall and ran out as soon as they heard the noise. Xuemei waited for the second brother to park the ox cart, and hurried forward, “Mother, hope the children didn’t bother you!”

Zhulan hissed feeling that the arms were not her own, “The two children are very good. They have not woken up after sleeping all the way. You come up and wrap the children tightly and carry them down.”

Xuemei helped her husband get on the bullock cart, and after a while, she stepped forward. Seeing that her parents didn’t dare to move their arms, she knew it was numb, and her voice was crying, “This daughter is not filial, and my parents have to worry about their daughter when they are old.”

Zhulan, “…”

She could still tolerate the child complaining about being unfilial at every turn, but she still couldn’t accept being called old at every turn. At her age, there were many people who just get married in modern times!

Seeing her mother freeze, Xuemei thought that her mother was tired from the journey. So she hurriedly hugged her daughter, wrapped her carefully, covered her face, and handed the child to her husband. Then she turned around and hugged her son, the little guy slept soundly. Xuemei held back her tears, or her father and mother will feel sorrier for her. She waited for her husband to come back and take away her son, and then Xuemei stepped forward, “Mom, I will press your arm.”

Zhou Shuren frowned, “Go down.”

The chance to get close should not be wasted. Well, the big girl just came back and so she needs to be taught.

Seeing her father shaking her hand and pulling her mother’s arm to press her, Xuemei finally believed her sister-in-law’s words, that her father only had her mother in his eyes, and his children can be thrown aside. Blushing, she and her husband had never been so close before, and again she envied the feelings between her parents.

Zhulan’s arms were numb and uncomfortable, and she didn’t dare to say a word, because the voice was too misleading. So she could only look at Zhou Shuren with tears in her eyes, “Take it easy!”

Zhou Shuren’s heart seemed to be scratched when he looked at her. His heart felt itchy, and the roots of his ears couldn’t help but turn red.

Zhulan got better after a while, and she didn’t dare to stay any longer, “Hurry up and get down!”

Several children were waiting, no matter how thick-skinned she was, she couldn’t bear it.

Zhou Shuren thought to himself that it was a pity that he got out of the bullock cart and entered the hall. His sons were all there, and the table had been set up. They were waiting for them to come back and have dinner!

Boss Zhou knew what had happened from the mouth of the second child. He felt sorry for his elder sister and brother-in-law, and even more for the tiredness of his elderly parents. “Father and mother, please sit down and rest.”

Zhou Shuren was quite satisfied knowing that they cared about their parents, “You sit too.”

Zhulan was worried about the children and asked the eldest to take the quilt off the cart, and turned around. She went to the room where Rong Chuan lived, opened the door, and opened the curtain to enter. Heat waves caressed her face, and she saw Xuemei and her husband changing clothes for their children. Zhulan said that she always felt as if she had forgotten something. Seeing her son-in-law, she remembered; she forgot to bring her daughter and son-in-law clothes to change!

Xuemei carefully covered the child with a quilt, “Mother, you’ve been tired all day, as long as I’m here, don’t worry.”

Zhu Lan looked around the bedroom. Rong Chuan moved out without taking the boxes. The boxes and the kang table were left behind. Two thick quilts were spread on the kang, and the fire in the stove burned warmly. Zhu Lan withdrew her gaze and said, “I was so preoccupied with thinking about the children that I forgot about your and Jiang Sheng’s change of clothes. We have plenty of fabric at home. Tomorrow, you should quickly put together two sets of clothes for yourself and Jiang Sheng to alternate wearing.”

Xuemei can guess the unpleasantness even if she didn’t know what happened in the Jiang family. She didn’t want to go home to get the clothes anymore. Her parents were in charge of the house, she lived with peace of mind, and even the dàsǎo1 who used to stab her with words now and then, didn’t stab her anymore, and she felt more at ease, “Thank you, mother.”

In fact, she was not short of fabric because she was not stupid. Except for making clothes for her in-laws during festivals, the fabrics in her dowry were used for her own home. So, except for the fact that she didn’t get to eat well, she was one of the best-dressed people in the village. Now that her parents know her situation, she really needed her parents’ help, and she can take what her parents give her. She straightened her waist in front of her husband.

Jiang Sheng bowed his waist sincerely and saluted, “Thank you, mother-in-law, for taking care of me.”
