Chapter 50

From the first day Jiang Zhen and Tao Su came, the old lady began to think about what to bring back when they left. There are not many specialties here. She can only take out the dried cabbage and dried winter melon that were dried at the end of last year, and pack a large bag for them to take back.

She actually wanted to give bacon the most. It looked generous, but it was a pity that the bacon was eaten up soon after the beginning of the spring, because they could not be stored for a long time, otherwise they would go bad.

As for Jiang Yao, after hearing that Tao Su was pregnant, she made clothes and diapers for her future nephew (female) for several nights in a row, and packed up the clothes that Chang Chang and Xiao Lu had worn before and were better preserved. , and bring them back together.

"My dried cabbage and wax gourd are worthless, but I can add some to the bone soup. The soup will be very delicious. I hope you don't dislike it." The old lady handed the package to Tao Su, not forgetting to add, "Both cabbage and winter melon are It's cold in nature, you can't eat it when you're pregnant, but you can boil it for Jiang Zhen, the young man is full of vitality, so it's better to give him some relief."

"..." Tao Su didn't know if she thought too much. She always felt that the old lady's sentence "vigorous and vigorous" had no connotation, but whether it was or not, she pretended not to know, took the package and said, "Thank you, grandma, These are all good things, we are over there, and we have nowhere to buy them."

After the old lady delivered the things, it was Jiang Yao's turn. She handed the bag containing the clothes to Jiang Zhen and said, "It's all clothes for the baby, some are new, some are worn by Changchang and Xiaolu before. Hurry up, you will order."

"Okay." Jiang Zhen took the bag with a smile, while Tao Su said, "I'm really not good at manual work. Fortunately, you have prepared it for me."

"These are all worn within half a year of age. After the child is born, I will pack up some clothes they don't have enough to wear, and make some new ones to send. Sister-in-law, don't worry about it." Jiang Yao said.

"This is too much trouble for you." Tao Su said a little embarrassedly, "I will learn from others and try to do it myself."

"No trouble, I have a sewing machine. As long as I have fabric, I can make it very quickly." Jiang Yao actually felt sorry for Tao Su. She didn't have an in-law, so she probably didn't have a very good relationship with her parents' family. Everything is up to you.

Jiang Zhen is a soldier, and he can help him even if he doesn't have a mission. Once he is on a mission, he may not be home for half a year or a few months. This is not easy for military wives, but from the moment they marry soldiers, they have to be prepared for this.

"This is Yaoyao's heart, don't let it go." Jiang Zhen was not polite to his sister. He felt sorry for Tao Su, and he didn't want her to work too hard in the future.

"Then I'll be more respectful than obedient." Tao Su smiled.

"That's right, that's what you want." Jiang Yao pointed to the bag, and added, "Brother and sister-in-law are married, and Lu Che and I have nothing to say. Just keep it simple and give you a red envelope. In the bag, remember to put it away."

"Yaoyao, why don't you have a red envelope yet?" Tao Su said in surprise.

"That's right, it's ridiculous." Jiang Zhen was about to open the bag, but was stopped by the old lady, "This is something to please, just keep it, don't change it back, it's unlucky."

When the old lady said this, Jiang Zhen lost his temper and could only put his hand down.

"Okay, it's getting late." Lu Che said, "Brother, sister-in-law, Yaoyao and I will take you to the bus station."

"Okay." Considering that Tao Su was pregnant now, Jiang Zhen didn't shirk, because Lu Che borrowed Zhang Dong's bicycle, so they could go to the station by bicycle and save some energy.

At the station, there was still some time before the car departed, Jiang Yao pulled Jiang Zhen aside and said, "Brother, you don't have to give me money and tickets when you send me letters in the future. Lu Che and I both go to work now. In addition to the salary, there are also tickets issued, plus he does other things, we are at least one hundred and seventy-eight a month, you really don't have to worry about us."

"But this is the confidence I gave you." Jiang Zhen said.

"I've grown up now, and I can earn money to support myself, so you don't have to worry about me." Jiang Yao said, "You're ready to be a father, and raising children is very expensive. Also, my sister-in-law is your daughter-in-law. Hand over all the wages to her for safekeeping."

"I handed it over to her when I got married, but she didn't want it." Jiang Zhen said with some distress.

"Don't have to throw it to her directly, she can't throw it away." Jiang Yao reminded: "It's tacky to talk about money, but marriage is so down-to-earth, don't you say that sister-in-law is too independent? You want yours When everything is intertwined, she will depend on you."

"I didn't expect that now it's your turn to teach your brother to be a man." Jiang Zhen raised his eyebrows and smiled.

"Of course." Jiang Yao raised her chin arrogantly, "In married life, I am your senior, you should study hard."

"Okay, I see." Jiang Zhen patted her head, "You should pay attention to your body when you are busy with work, keep in touch, and after the child is born, I will take a leave to come back to see you."

"Well, you have to pay attention to your own safety. You are not alone now. You are someone with a daughter-in-law and children. Remember to think about them when you are desperate."

No matter how reluctant they were, Jiang Zhen and Tao Su embarked on the road back to the military camp.

Jiang Yao and Lu Che watched the car go further and further away, until it shrank to a small point and disappeared from their sight before leaving on a bicycle.

After Jiang Zhen left, the nursery was officially opened, and Jiang Yao, the childcare team leader, took office, and Lu Zhaoyang and Lu Zhaoyue also ushered in their first enrollment in their lives.

When the nursery school started to enroll students, Jiang Yao had already signed up for the two of them, and paid a month's admission fee, which was two yuan per person per month, and two yuan was five yuan.

Every day from 7:30 in the morning to 6:00 in the afternoon, nearly 11 hours of babysitting, and also taking care of breakfast and lunch, if it weren't for the subsidy of the mechanical and electrical power plant with deep pockets, the two dollars and five would not matter at all.

Because the fee is cheap and it provides convenience for dual-earner families, the nursery school has been very popular. Now, looking at the factories in the county, there is no one who does not envy the mechanical and electrical power plants.

There were other factories or relatives of employees who wanted to enroll here, but Jiang Yao treated them equally and refused. This will offend many people, but once a gap is opened, people who walk through the back door will not be able to block it.

Director Li also likes Jiang Yao's one-of-a-kind style. When others want to leave her, she pulls Jiang Yao out as a "shield".

Of course, school enrollment is only the beginning of everything, and the challenge begins when the child enters the kindergarten.

Jiang Yao divided all the infants into three classes according to their age groups, one class under one year old, one class between one and two years old, and one class between two and three years old.

Taking care of children under the age of one is the most labor-intensive. Jiang Yao arranged ten nurses to be in charge of this class, and five nurses each for the other two classes.

Chang Chang and Xiao Lu were already one year old and were placed in the middle class. Because they go to work with their mother, they have already adapted to the life in the nursery without overdoing it.

As for other children, they have to face separation from their parents.

Although it is difficult to take care of children in small classes, it is best to take care of them at the beginning, because they usually don’t find their parents. Children in middle and large classes cry so much that the whole nursery is about to turn over on the first day of school.

Even if we had prepared in our hearts, everyone was still a little overwhelmed. Fortunately, most children are free now, and they are not as squeamish as later generations. After a week, everyone basically integrates into the life of the nursery.

The nursery school goes to school six days a week. After this week, Jiang Yao was obviously thinner than before. Lu Che hugged him at night, not to mention how distressed he was, "If it's too hard, don't do it."

"It's okay, everything is difficult at the beginning, and it shouldn't be so hard when the transition is over." Jiang Yao said, "I feel a sense of accomplishment to be able to run a nursery school, so don't stop me."

She was telling the truth, instead of staying at home with a baby every day and guarding a square inch, it is better to go outside and work hard.

"Okay." Lu Che couldn't stop her, but he couldn't help sighing, "Anyway, you can do it yourself, don't be too reluctant."

"I see." Jiang Yao didn't want him to continue nagging, and said, "My shoulders are sore, help me squeeze them quickly."

"Okay." Lu Che took the order.

I have to say that Big Brother Lu's massage technique is really good. Jiang Yao was pressed by him for a while, and the exhaustion after a long day was almost gone.

"Okay, don't press any more, let's sleep." Jiang Yao said.

"Aren't you tired?" Lu Che asked.

"You're not tired anymore, hurry up to sleep." Jiang Yao said after thinking about it. The next moment, her waist was gently brushed, and she woke up after a while.

Later, she realized that someone was doing her own routine, but unfortunately it was too slow, because Lu Che had already stepped up, "Since you're not tired, let's exercise."

"Do you feel bad for me just talking about it? You have to go to work tomorrow, hurry up and go to sleep."

"Daughter-in-law, tomorrow is Sunday. It's a holiday. You can sleep as long as you like. Leave the child to me. You don't have to worry about it."

"..."

After two months passed, the operation of the nursery was officially on track, and Zhu Xia was about to give birth.

She was originally a childcare worker in a small class. She had nine childcare workers on her maternity leave, and Jiang Yao could occasionally help her, so it wasn't a big problem.

Before Zhu Xia was due to give birth in a week, Jiang Yao let her go home to give birth.

"I'd better keep going to work." Zhu Xia said, "My mother-in-law is crazy about her son and grandson. I'm afraid of being alone with her when I stay at home, so I might as well go to work here. Zhang Dong also goes to work anyway. He took me to the hospital."

"Okay, as long as you don't feel forced." Jiang Yao said worriedly: "Your mother-in-law is so powerful, what would you do if you really gave birth to a daughter?"

"I'm not afraid of this. Zhang Dong said that although he wants a son, it doesn't matter even if he has a daughter. Just chase another child." Zhu Xia said comfortingly: "If my mother-in-law gets angry, our family of three will go to school. You guys, rent a house and move out. I don't need her to take care of my confinement, and after maternity leave, I will bring my child to work together. I think now, it's good to be a 'mother' at the nursery, and I don't have to worry about no one taking my child. "

Jiang Yao listened and smiled, "It's not wrong to see Zhang Dong, he has an idea, and he won't go to his mother regardless of right and wrong."

"Yes, as the saying goes, men are afraid of marrying the wrong man, and women are afraid of marrying the wrong man." Zhu Xia whispered, "I still have a little friendship with Du Yuejia, and I also had correspondence with me after she returned to the city. You Guess what she said to me?"

"What did you say? She's pregnant?" Jiang Yao said.

"She is pregnant, but the month is still young." Zhu Xia said with excitement: "She said that Du Yuejiao gave birth to a baby some time ago and gave birth to a daughter. Her man and her mother-in-law were unhappy, and she quarreled with her man. They all ran back to their parents' house. Although it was wrong for me to gloat at misfortune, she was so arrogant before, and now it's hard for me to be unhappy when I see her deflated."

"That's great." Jiang Yao was even more extreme than Zhu Xia, and showed a big smile. Others didn't know if she had a happy event. "A person like Du Yuejiao doesn't deserve a good end."

"That's right, she used to pretend to be pitiful when she jumped in line, but it's actually really bad. It's even worse when she's married. Before Du Yuejia got married, she was bullied badly by her."

In fact, Jiang Yao felt that Du Yuejia's temperament could be tougher, so that she would not be bullied at will, but temperament is hard to say, it is often innate, so it is inconvenient for her to comment, so she did not respond to Zhu Xia.

Seeing that she didn't respond, Zhu Xia added, "Du Yuejia also said that Zhao Pengfei's mother didn't mind her having a daughter, and she said it would be good to have a daughter."

"It's good." Jiang Yao said, "Aunt Yang is not as traditional as ordinary parents."

"That's right, but Du Yuejia is also very worried, because her mother-in-law said that if she had a girl as beautiful as Yaoyao, she would be satisfied."

"...Isn't this deliberately looking for trouble?"

"Who said it wasn't? I guess Zhao Pengfei agreed to their marriage on the surface, but deep down he wasn't happy, so he tried his best to deal with her."

"...Okay, don't say it anymore, it's not good for your child to listen to too many such dark things." Jiang Yao said and pulled her up, "before you give birth, hurry up and walk around, when the time comes It will be better."

"Okay." Zhu Xia was about to get up when suddenly there was a pain in her stomach, and she couldn't help but let out a "hiss".

When Jiang Yao heard the sound, she turned her head and saw that her face was ugly. She immediately asked, "Zhu Xia, are you going to give birth?"

"Maybe... yes." Zhu Xia spit out a few words with difficulty.

"Don't be afraid, I'll go find Zhang Dong now and ask him to take you to the hospital."

Jiang Yao said, stood up, ran back to the nursery and called someone to take care of Zhu Xia, and then ran to the workshop to find Zhang Dong.

When Zhang Dong heard that Zhu Xia was about to give birth, everyone was stunned. It was only when Lu Che pushed him out that he reacted and ran to the nursery at the speed of a 100-meter sprint.

Zhu Xia is the first child, and she has just started, so she won't be able to walk in pain all of a sudden. Zhang Dong helped her to the bicycle shed, and then rode her to the hospital.

The nursery school was not over yet, so Jiang Yao couldn't leave for a while. After school, she sent the siblings home first, and then took the meals to the hospital.

The doctor was about to ask Zhu Xia to eat to save her energy, and this meal was just in time.

When Zhu Xia finished eating, she would not give birth for a while, so Jiang Yao and Lu Che went home first.

When got home, it was already dark.

The old lady had already fed Chang Chang and Xiao Lu, and she had eaten it herself. She was playing with them in the main room. When she saw them coming back, she asked them to eat quickly, and then asked, "How is Zhu Xia?"

"The doctor said that it's just the beginning, and it's the first child again. It would be good to be born tomorrow morning." Jiang Yao said.

"Women have to suffer this crime when they give birth to children, but when they give birth to children and see how cute they are, they will feel that everything is worth it." The old lady said, looking at the brothers and sisters, "Changchang, Xiaolu, you will be in the future. Be filial to your mother, she gave birth to the two of you at one time, and it was twice as hard as others."

As soon as the words fell, the deer shouted loudly: "Mom, dad, mom, dad..."

Although the little guy is only one year, two or three months old, his pronunciation is very clear, and the voice of milk and milky voice makes his heart soften.

When Lu Che heard his daughter calling him, he picked her up without thinking about eating, "My sweet little deer, why are you so cute!" He said, "mua", and gave the little deer a hard kiss on the face.

Seeing his father hugging his sister, Changchang wanted to hug him too, stood up awkwardly, stretched out his hand to Lu Che, and then shouted "Ya ya ya ya", but he couldn't pronounce the word "Dad".

Obviously they are twins, Xiaolu will call Mom and Dad in eleven months, but Changchang still can't call. Moreover, the distance between the brother and sister's language development level is getting wider and wider, because the deer can speak more and more words, but the most basic ones have not yet been learned.

Lu Che saw that his son had been shouting for a long time and didn't say why. He got angry and said, "Why are you so stupid, you still can't call Mom and Dad, and if you don't call me, I won't hug you."

The old lady listened and encouraged Changchang, "Little Ancestor, you call Dad, if you call, Dad will hug you."

Chang Chang should have understood what the grown-up said. He tried hard to pronounce, and his little face was so anxious, but no matter how anxious he was, he just couldn't shout.

And Lu Che's face became more and more ugly because of his repeated failures. Chang Chang could see that his father was unhappy, his mouth flattened, and he almost cried.

Seeing this, Jiang Yao immediately picked him up, put him in her arms, and comforted him warmly: "Chang Chang, don't be in a hurry, take your time, I won't call Dad today, keep working hard tomorrow, and one day I will call of."

Listening to her mother's comfort, Chang Chang felt even more aggrieved, and cried out with a "wow".

Lu Che was upset at first, but now that he saw Chang Chang crying, he suddenly became angry and scolded: "Why are you crying, you are stupid, why do you cry?"

Chang Chang heard the sound and cried even more!

"Lu Che." Jiang Yao said coldly, "Changchang is still young, what are you yelling at him for, it will terrify him."

The daughter-in-law was angry, no matter how dissatisfied Lu Che was, he could only temporarily "truce".

Seeing this, the old lady immediately took the attitude of protecting her granddaughter-in-law and severely criticized Lu Che.

Chang Chang had already felt his father's "hostility" towards him. He didn't want to let him wash himself when he took a shower that night. Lu Che was a little helpless because of him, but Jiang Yao said coolly, "Deserving it."

"..." Big Brother Lu felt that he had made a big mistake and offended his daughter-in-law and son.

He basically did the job of bathing the child. Jiang Yao was unskilled, and bathing and washing Chang Chang was a little slow. When she carried the little guy back to the room with a towel to get dressed, Xiao Lu was already lying on the bed drinking wheat milk essence. .

"Daughter-in-law, you go take a shower, I'll help Chang Chang get dressed." Lu Che said flatteringly.

Jiang Yao snorted coldly and said, "I don't need you, lest you be dissatisfied and scolded by you again."

"..." Big boss Lu was not discouraged when he failed to show goodwill. While Jiang Yao was dressing Chang Chang, he quickly soaked the malted milk essence, and when Chang Chang put on his pajamas, he immediately handed over the bottle. Showing the appearance of a loving father, he said, "Chang Chang, drink wheat milk essence."

Chang Chang is a snack foodie and likes to drink wheat milk essence. When he saw the bottle, he seemed to have completely forgotten about the fierce father just now.

This time, Lu Che didn't dare to take the opportunity to seduce him to call "Dad", he hurriedly stuffed the bottle into his mouth, Chang Chang raised his hand to hold the bottle, and drank happily.

"Sugar-coated cannonballs." Jiang Yao snorted coldly. She didn't lose her breath because of this. She still looked unhappy and went to the bathroom to take a shower with her clothes in her arms.

When she walked out of the room, Lu Che said in a smooth voice, "Your mother loves you more than me now. I offended you now, and I have to work hard tonight to make your mother forgive me."

Chang Chang now only has malted milk in his eyes and mouth. As for what his father said, he can't hear it at all.

Both brothers and sisters are experts at drinking malted milk, and a bottle of 250 ml of malted milk was quickly consumed. Lu Che carried them to the crib and began to sing a lullaby to lull them to sleep.

In normal times, after he sang two or three lullabies, the brothers and sisters fell asleep, but today they sang the fifth song and they were still in good spirits.

Are they going against him on purpose? He knew he was going to coax his daughter-in-law tonight, but he refused to sleep.

When Jiang Yao came back from the bath to pick up the baton, and when he came back from the bath, Chang Chang and Xiao Lu still didn't feel sleepy at all.

Lu Che had no choice but to do everything he could, making faces and riding a big horse, until they were tired of playing, and then Duke Zhou would go.

"Daughter-in-law..." After covering the children with a small quilt, Lu Che turned around and hugged Jiang Yao.

"Go away, I don't want to talk to you right now." Jiang Yao reached out to push him, but he was not willing to let go, and held on tightly.

The disparity in strength was too great, Jiang Yao decided to give up, but she did not speak, expressing her resistance.

Lu Che coaxed for a long time to no avail, kissed her lips directly, pryed open her lips a little bit, and finally got into her mouth.

She swore to resist at first, but he was patient and aggressive, she was defeated, and finally he succeeded.

Next, it is not just as simple as kissing, but more in-depth exchanges follow.

When an affair/event was over, Jiang Yao was so tired that her eyelids couldn't hold up. The only thought that flashed through her chaotic mind was that it was clearly he who did something wrong, so how could she be "punished"?
