Sun Yun doesn’t care about her father-in-law. She knows they’re just muddleheaded. If you bother with them, you’ll get angry.
She works especially efficiently, washes her mother-in-law’s body with a covered blanket, and changes her into clean clothes.
Then she goes out to change the water and washes her mother-in-law’s hair clean again. She wraps it in a towel and slowly wipes it dry.
Zhao Tian watches from the side. He doesn’t say anything, but in his heart he knows that only the eldest daughter-in-law can care for the old lady like this.
Actually, with the current temperature, it’s really not suitable for washing hair.
Sun Yun knows her mother-in-law really can’t make it, but she still washes her clean, so that she’ll be clean as she leaves.
Everything’s tidied up, and her hair is styled neatly, then a big handful of hair falls off.
She secretly throws it outside. Seeing her father-in-law’s wooden expression, she knows he’s genuinely heartbroken.
But such things can’t be avoided just because you’re sad.
Once everything’s tidied up, "Dad, you must eat. Xiao Ping and the others are definitely on their way back. Regardless of Mom’s condition, you can’t be like this."
Zhao Tian nods.
Sun Yun goes out with the al, calling Qi Xue i to heat it up.
Sitting down feels pointless, seeing her younger sister-in-law, also her cousin, rubbing corn; she’s used to work, so she sits down and starts rubbing corn too.
Qi Xue i feels rather uncomfortable inside; they’re not only sisters-in-law but also cousins.
Once the al’s heated, "Cousin, it’s better if you deliver it, he’s mad at us right now. When I took it in earlier, he ignored ."
Sun Yun gets up, delivering it "Dad, eat, once you’re done, I’ll heat water for you at noon, you can take a bath, today’s the 29th."
Zhao Tian nods, the old lady’s tidied up, so he’s clean too.
Seeing his father-in-law finish eating, Sun Yun says holding the bowl, "Dad, I’ll be in the main room. If you need anything, just call out."
The two sisters sit in the main room rubbing corn, Zhixue sits with his brothers, rubbing corn alongside.
Knowing Zhao Qingjie is asleep, no one chats, just focusing on their own work.
This speed makes things faster, corn cobs were rubbed to fill five bags in the morning.
Sun Yun frequently checks if her father-in-law needs anything.
She sighs internally, what’s the use of this? Seeing her father-in-law like this, she feels quite sympathetic inside.
Zhao Xiaoling watches her two younger sisters finish eating, there isn’t any corn left for them to rub.
Today is the 29th, a few days ago Mom said they would visit Grandma today, but they can’t go now.
The bedding in the house has all been washed, so the three sisters read in the house.
"Sis, should we go and see?"
"I just talked to Mom, wanted to go along, Mom wouldn’t let, said it’s their business, no need for us."
"Sis, actually Mom just isn’t gentle with her words, but what she says is true."
"Mm, I know."
This year, they’re already in first-year middle school, the coursework is incredibly difficult, Zhao Xiaoling’s grades aren’t as good as Zhao Xiaole’s, Zhao Xiaole helps tutor her sister.
Because the principal applied for them, if they remain in the top ten, their tuition will be waived.
This motivates the two sisters, even though a year’s tuition is only a few bucks, saving it is good, it can be saved, plus there are two sisters, it saves quite a bit.
Little Hong is in first grade this year too, thanks to her two older sisters’ influence, her grades are also exceptionally good, she’s studying the second-grade material, she wants to skip a grade.
When it’s ti, the two sisters get up to cook.
"Mom already instructed, just heat leftover rice, make porridge at noon."
When Zhao Qingxiang hears the movent, he also gets up. He feels dizzy in the head.
"Dad, it’s almost ti to eat. Once you’re done, switch with Mom so she can co back to eat."
"Okay, I’m not hungry yet, I’ll go check on things."
Zhao Qingxiang sees his wife sitting by rubbing corn, Second’s family cooking.
He lifts the curtain and enters the house, seeing his dad still sitting to one side.
"Dad."
Zhao Tian doesn’t respond.
He doesn’t know what to do either. What the elderly think, he doesn’t know.
After coming out, "Xiao Yun, go ho and eat."
Sun Yun shakes her head "You eat, later boil water for Dad to shower."
This situation can’t be attended to by a daughter-in-law.
"Big Brother, you eat here."
Zhao Qingxiang shakes his head, "The al at ho is ready, go eat back ho."
"Big Sister-in-law, go back with , I’ll watch Dad."
Sun Yun still shakes her head "No need, there’s nothing much."
Her father-in-law said to take care at their house, so there’ll be no break for the day, at night Zhao Qingxiang needs to stay with him.
When Sun Yun gets back ho, the pancakes are still in the pot, the elder daughter sits watching the fire, they won’t burn, they’re even crispy.
"Mom."
"Go ahead, go read. I can handle it myself."
The little girl nods and goes inside, the little girl isn’t close to her, in fact, none of her three daughters are close. She knows it’s just how things are; she really wanted a son.
This month is absent again; the doctor says nothing’s wrong with her body, it’s really puzzling.
After eating, she returns to lie down, only this one or two days in a year does she feel better.
In the afternoon, she checks once more, finding nothing amiss, thus returns to prepare dinner.
This noon, Zhao Qingxiang gave the old man pancake, tonight they will make good food.
The four girls quickly make dumplings. Sun Yun has figured things out, this ti she puts in much more at than before.
Cabbage and at dumplings, Zhao Tian still eats a bowl.
At night, Zhao Qingxiang stays to accompany him to sleep. Next day is the 30th, Zhao Tian tells his son to go ho, today it’s the second son’s turn to care for them.
Early morning, Zhao Qingjie goes to buy at, no choice, with this situation they can’t slaughter a pig, he has to buy at. On the 30th, they can’t just not have at.
Zhao Qingxiang rests at ho today, five mbers of the family still eat dumplings.
"I reckon Xiao Ping and the others will arrive soon, they’ll definitely drive over."
"It’s the New Year, driving over must cost quite a bit, right?"
"Probably, considering the distance."
On the night of the 30th, Zhao Qingxiang brings his dad a bowl of dumplings.
In the Capital, Su Yuanyuan and her family of five also eat dumplings together, the family makes them together, they all love shrimp dumplings.
"Mom, we’ll execute the mission on the sixth, when you give birth to little brother or sister, we’ll definitely be ho," said Qi Wen.
Su Yuanyuan smiles and nods "Great. You’ll get to see them first thing."
"Where are you heading this ti?"
"Just investigating that woman."
"Didn’t find anything last ti?" asks Su Yuanyuan, who was extrely busy a while ago.
