Chapter 637 Solution
Lin Xiuqing was stunned for a moment, asking her to take care of those children?
But there are three in her family, and there is an old lady, plus she has to cook more food for Ye Mu. This big family is enough for her to keep busy. Now she has to add six more children? ? ?
The children all called her aunt, and it was okay to take care of them for a few days, just a little rice, but if they were sent to her every three days, her family wouldn't be able to bear it.
As the saying goes, how can a half-grown child feed a poor man and afford so many mouths?
And it's not just a matter of opening more mouths and spending more rice.
The key is that with more children, there will be more things that come with it, and she doesn't have time to see so many children.
Ye Xiaoxi alone is enough to keep her busy, and she can't just ask the old lady to do all the work inside and outside the house. The more children she has, the more she will live as she gets older.
Why is she doing this for nothing?
What if the child got bumped somewhere? If you don't take good care of her, you have to blame her. That's so thankless.
Aren’t the eldest sister-in-law and second sister-in-law’s natal families from the same village? Wouldn’t it be better to send it to their grandparents?
Seeing that Lin Xiuqing remained silent, Sister-in-law Ye quickly added, "I can bring them their daily rations, and you can just help cook more. They will eat whatever they have."
"That's right, we can't let them eat your food, we will bring the rations in advance..."
This is not just a matter of rations...
Although their family always eats dry food, only breakfast is watery, while the two families next door eat porridge, and only when they go to sea, they cook dry food for dinner.
Lin Xiuqing had a headache.
She put down her chopsticks reluctantly with a smile on her face, "Sister-in-law and second sister-in-law, as you just said, I am the one doing all the work for the whole family, and Xiaojiu is still young, so I can't be busy in the first place."
"If the six of you over there send them to me, it will be okay for one or two days. I will bite the bullet and help you look at it for one or two days. It doesn't matter if you have rations or not. We are uncles and aunts. Do we still need children? One bite to eat? Even if you leave it to me for many days, I won’t be able to handle it..."
Ye Yaodong also frowned. He didn't expect that he just made a suggestion, but actually cheated his wife...
Mother Ye also frowned, "Your maternal family is also in the village. Wouldn't it be better to leave the children to their grandparents? Just bring the rations over and let their grandma cook more meals for the children." They’re all in the village anyway.”
"Yes, the children's maternal family is in the village. Wouldn't it be better for each of them to go to their grandparents' house to eat? If they were all given to me, then there would be only 9 children. How could I see and live there."
"No need to watch...they can play by themselves and go to school when the time comes..."
Ye Yaodong also put down his chopsticks and said: "How can it be as simple as you said? They are not stupid people. They will disappear as soon as they finish eating. It is better to let their grandparents watch, in case they sneak away to play at the beach. A Qing couldn’t even take care of her three children if she was in trouble or skipped school.”
The old lady also smiled and said, "If the child's grandparents live with your other brothers and eat with your brothers, you invite them over and cook a meal for the children at your respective homes at noon, so that the in-laws can It would be nice to have dinner at your house by the way."
Father Ye also agreed, "Yes, yes, yes, you can cook it at home, or let your in-laws eat it at your house. If you leave early and come back late, you can also ask your in-laws to help you cook dinner directly, so that you When you come back after a tiring day, there is no need to start cooking in the fire again. If the children have something to eat, you will have something to eat too, and you will be spared from having to work around. When the goods come back, you will still be busy in the future."
Sister-in-law Ye and Second Sister-in-law Ye looked at each other, and they looked at each other.
Before they could speak, the old lady smiled and said: "Don't think that everyone is partial to Ah Qing and speaks for her. She is indeed very busy, and everyone sees it. She not only has to take care of the elderly, but also speaks for her. She also has to take care of the little one and do the busy work for the two in the middle, how can she take care of it?"
"And you also stuffed 6 of them at once for her to take care of. Everyone will frown after hearing this. It would be best to let the children's grandparents come over to take care of them. They didn't do anything anyway, they just came over to cook a meal at noon. , come over and cook a meal tonight."
"I'm just old, and everyone despises the old man for being "pai lai" and unclean. Otherwise, I can go over and help you cook two meals..."
"You'd better forget it. Use a crutch to poke you around, but don't knock yourself down." Ye Yaodong was the first to object.
Sister-in-law Ye smiled awkwardly, "We didn't think carefully. We didn't think more about it. We just thought that Aqing was next door and it was convenient to go back and forth, so we came to ask her for help."
Second Sister-in-law Ye also smiled reluctantly, "I forgot that you are also very busy. 9 children are indeed too many. Then we should go back to our parents' house and ask our parents to come over and see if it works."
Lin Xiuqing nodded, "Okay, your mother-in-law's family is so close, so it would be best if you could come over and see me at any time. I want to ask my parents for help, but it's hard to ask for help. They are so far away, let alone help. It’s hard to say anything.”
"Yes, being close has its benefits."
"That's not good, we're here in a short walk..." Ye Chenghu suddenly muttered in a low voice.
Lin Xiuqing stared directly at him, "When adults are talking, why do children interrupt?"
"Then let's leave first. We have to go there early to avoid falling asleep all at once."
Lin Xiuqing nodded.
But Mother Ye suddenly said: "You go and ask first. If my mother-in-law is not free, I will come back early to cook for you for two days. Anyway, I may not be able to work every day, and I will be lying down when I am not." Legs sitting there chatting and gluing matchboxes.”
Ye's mother was also worried that the two daughters-in-law had their own thoughts, thinking that they were partial to Aqing and the Dongzi family, and they would help if they could.
The mother-in-law is in trouble. It is really difficult to balance the three sons. The palms of the hands are flesh and the backs of the hands are also flesh, but there is always a focus.
Dongzi and his wife are indeed more filial than the eldest and second couple, and they do a good job.
With her words, Sister-in-law Ye and Sister-in-law Ye were immediately happy, and now it could be said that they had no worries.
Who knows if their wives are free? Of course it's best if you have time, everyone will be happy, but if you don't have time, you can only count on Ye Mu to come back early and cook for them.
Sister-in-law Ye responded happily, "Okay, okay, I'll go back to my mother's house first and ask. If my mother is not free, then I can only ask my mother to help."
"Well, go ahead."
After things were settled and everyone left, the family's happy atmosphere returned.
Ye Yaodong couldn't help complaining, "I don't know what I think. I help them earn money, but they have to look after their children? Why don't we just give them money?"
Lin Xiuqing smiled and didn't take it seriously, "Doesn't this mean that I'm reliable? They believe me. Haha, I do live next door. It's normal for me to be the first person to think of me. If we go out for a day and a half, it will definitely be the first time. For a moment, I thought of entrusting the children to look after them..."
"No, it's me. I will definitely send it to my mother to see. If she has to go to work, then let her take the child to work."
Mother Ye rolled her eyes at him, "You really know how to plan for me! You really know how to do things for me."
"It's necessary. If you don't call me your mother, is it appropriate to call someone else?"
"You deserve to be treated like a cow or a horse."
"No, don't be so exaggerated. You are just acting like a cow or a horse? You are still working, and I have already started to support you and my father in old age. Why are you acting like a cow or a horse? Don't go out. Lose my reputation."
"You only have a big mouth and can say, I'll shit and pee all over you, I'll pay you when it's time to pay, and I'll do my best when it's time to do it. Aren't you treating me like a cow or a horse for you? I Whatever you earn from working now will be yours when you get old..."
"Don't tell me that it will all be ours when you get old. There are still several decades left. If you can save enough money for your own retirement, I will be Amitabha. Thank God."
Ye Yaodong's talking back has become an instinctive reaction. When he opens his mouth, he feels that he has developed a superb skill. Everything comes out as soon as he opens his mouth.
"So what if it's been decades? How can we old people spend any money? We just saved it and left it for you to share later." Ye Mu knocked his bowl angrily, and then put away her own bowls and chopsticks. .
"Hurry up and feed me. After you finish eating, leave the bowl free for me to wash. If you eat for a long time and have a broken mouth, you will talk back badly. Sooner or later you will be angry to death."
"I learned it from you. Things like talkativeness should also be hereditary, right?"
"You are the only one who is great!"
He's already great
Tell his mother to stop talking back.
Everyone at the table has long been accustomed to the quarrels between mother and son. Any day that they don't say a few words to each other, the sun will definitely come out in the west.
Ye Mu put the dishes and chopsticks on the stove first. There was a pot of hot water that had just been boiled. She wanted to scoop the water into a thermos to keep it warm.
Seeing the funnel placed at the top of the stove, she stood on tiptoes to pick it up, then put it into the mouth of the thermos, and then poured water into it with a ladle.
After the two thermos bottles were filled, there was still a little hot water left in the pot. She took another ladle of cold water and mixed it in. It was just warm enough to wash the dishes.
