Chapter 169 Mother Zhou sees the human heart clearly
Zhou's mother and Xu Qingluo spent the entire morning just packing up these things.
Although the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law are tired, they are happy.
Zhou's mother saw that most of these things were sent by the Xu family.
I have some emotions and other thoughts in my heart.
She has been in the family compound for a month, and during this time she has helped her daughter-in-law pick up packages several times.
The packages I received this month were either sent from my in-laws or from my eldest and second brothers.
Even Xu's uncle and aunt, as well as several cousins from the Xu family, sent a lot of things over.
But in the Zhou family, only the eldest wife and the old man and old lady were concerned about Xu Qingluo's pregnancy.
Since the people in the second house found out that their daughter-in-law was pregnant, except for Uncle Zhou and Aunt Zhou, they just said a few words of greeting.
Others didn't even say the simplest greeting.
People are all made of flesh and blood, so put yourself in others' shoes.
No wonder her daughter-in-law is so nice to her cousins from her mother's side.
Zhou's mother thought of the last time Liang Meiqin complained to her because Xu Qingluo bought winter clothes for several of her nieces and nephews from her mother's family.
I find it funny that they haven't paid anything, but they are already thinking about getting something in return.
Fortunately, her daughter-in-law is a clear-headed person, otherwise she would have been bullied to death.
This time when Zhou's mother came to Xuecheng, she understood many things.
I also saw the true faces of some people.
"Xiao Luo, let's eat something first."
Zhou's mother helped Xu Qingluo sit down at the dining table.
The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law had porridge at noon today, and they ate it with pickled vegetables and scrambled eggs.
If you eat too much meat, it is quite comfortable to eat some clear soup and side dishes occasionally.
Xu Qingluo drank two bowls of porridge. After eating and drinking, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law went back to their rooms for a nap.
Zhou's mother suddenly thought of something, got off the bed, put on her shoes, ran to the yard, and took back the pillowcases that had been dried in the sun.
He put on the pillow core and hurriedly took it to Xu Qingluo's room.
"Xiao Luo, Mom is coming in."
"it is good."
Xu Qingluo had just laid down when Zhou's mother came. The pillow came at the right time.
"Lean on your pillow."
"Is your stomach heavy?"
Xu Qingluo slept on her side with her belly pressed against the pillow.
With the pillow sharing the weight of her stomach, Xu Qingluo felt a little more comfortable.
"It's a little easier."
When Zhou's mother heard that the pillow was real, her face instantly lit up with joy and she smiled as she pulled the quilt over her.
"As long as it works."
"You fall asleep first."
"Mom went to the vegetable garden to harvest the vegetables."
When Xu Qingluo heard that Zhou's mother had gone to work again, he quickly grabbed Zhou's mother's wrist and patted the seat next to him.
"Mom, you should go to sleep first."
"Go again in the afternoon."
Xu Qingluo kindly invited Zhou's mother to take a lunch break with him.
It's a rare opportunity for Zhou's mother to spend some time alone with her daughter-in-law.
There was no reason for her to refuse. Such a good opportunity would be gone once her son came back.
Zhou Yuheng: “….”
"Okay, then Mom will sleep with you for a while."
"If you feel uncomfortable."
"Call me anytime."
Although Zhou's mother wanted to spend some time alone with Xu Qingluo, she was more worried.
She was afraid that her daughter-in-law would get leg cramps or feel uncomfortable in her sleep.
I sleep here with my daughter-in-law, and if she feels unwell, I can always notice and take care of her.
Xu Qingluo often suffers from leg cramps when sleeping, which is something both Zhou's mother and Zhou Yuheng know.
It’s just that she can sleep more comfortably only when Zhou Yuheng gives her a massage.
When she was standing, she couldn't even see her feet when she looked down, let alone bending over to massage her legs.
"it is good."
Xu Qingluo was not being pretentious. She just needed someone to take care of her right now.
There is no need to bother Zhou's mother for the sake of face.
This relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law might be a problem in other families, but it is not a big deal for her and Zhou's mother.
It is said that the first ten years depend on the mother-in-law, and the last ten years depend on the daughter-in-law.
Zhou's mother is taking care of her during her pregnancy and confinement now, and when Zhou's mother gets old, she will naturally do her best to take care of her.
Both the mother-in-law and the daughter-in-law understand these principles and are clear-minded people.
There are naturally not so many twists and turns when getting along with each other.
.......
.......
In the afternoon, Zhou's mother woke up, but Xu Qingluo was still sleeping.
Zhou's mother was happy to see that she slept well today.
He happily took his backpack and hoe and went to the vegetable garden.
Mother Zhou came to the vegetable garden alone today. Everyone saw her coming out alone and chatted with her for a few words.
"Captain Zhou's wife, are you here to pick vegetables too?"
"Yes, pick it so you can plant more seeds."
"We need to stock up on food before winter."
When everyone heard her words, they smiled and nodded in agreement.
It is already mid-August, and in two months it will start snowing again in Syracuse.
Now that the weather is still warm, we must quickly stock up on more food.
"No."
"I wonder what the winter will be like this year."
"If it snows heavily, it will be difficult to go out."
Everyone is scared when they think about the weather in Snow City when winter comes.
It's no joke when it snows heavily in Snow City.
The snow was up to a person's chest. If the person was shorter, he or she would probably be buried in the snow.
"No."
"We need to prepare more food."
"Make more pickles or something."
"Captain Zhou's mother."
"I remember your daughter-in-law gave birth in December?"
"This great winter starts."
"We need to prepare in advance, right?"
Everyone looked at Zhou's mother. She gave birth in December, when it snowed the most in Xuecheng.
The road to the hospital is not always easy.
"Then we'll go back to our hometown and not give birth here."
Zhou's mother said vaguely that she had never revealed that she was from Kyoto when she came to the family compound.
After all, Zhou's father has a special position, and she is afraid that everyone will come to disturb her after knowing Zhou's father's position.
Her daughter-in-law is in good health now and can't stand the trouble caused by a big guy coming to her house.
"Go back to your hometown to give birth?"
"Where are you from?"
"Why haven't I heard you mention it?"
When Zhou's mother heard this, she smiled, found an excuse to deal with it, and quickly changed the subject.
"It's from the north, too."
"The snow isn't that severe, and it's close enough to go back."
"By the way, is there a river on the mountain?"
"Are there any fish?"
When it comes to food, the attention of the military wives is instantly attracted.
“Occasionally there are a few fish, but they are very difficult to catch.”
“You walk all the way up from the bottom of the mountain.”
"You can see a lot of people washing clothes there."
People living in tube-shaped buildings are not like those living in courtyards, as they do not have their own private wells at home.
Usually you have to go to public places to get water and use the toilet.
There are many residents and people living in the tube-shaped building, and you have to queue up to wash clothes.
So everyone took their dirty clothes to the river in the mountains to wash them, and then took them home to hang them up.
When Zhou's mother heard there were fish, she didn't plan to catch them.
She can do housework, but she is not fast enough to go fishing.
She asked this question just to divert everyone's attention.
So that everyone wouldn't keep asking her where she came from.
