on one knee, performed a ritual bow, and then quietly slipped out of the room where ripples were.The new emperor of Panlong Nation is still waiting, waiting for the reply from the assassins he sent to...Before things settled, she definitely wouldn't say anything bad about Yu Meifeng in front of the child, so she could only give the child a roundabout explanation.
"Grandma, is our family life not good now"
Dabao raised his head, tears and snot streaming down his face, and asked.
Lianyi frowned, picked up a handkerchief from the side, and wiped her grandson's tears and snot while saying:
You think that a good life is just about being well-fed, having fun toys, but your mom wants a husband she can rely on. You guys have different ideas about what makes a good life, so you can't expect her to live up to your standards.
Ripples didn't care if Da Sunzi could understand, she explained to Dabao in a way that children could understand. She wouldn't hide anything from him just because he was young. In fact, sometimes children are more sensitive than adults.
Although Dabao still didn't quite understand, he accepted Ripple's explanation.
In the afternoon, Song Qingchuan rode his bicycle to pick up his daughter-in-law from her parents' house.
Song Qinchuan's daughter-in-law, Li Juan, is the librarian at the town library. She has been married into the Song family for two years. Before the incident with Qingshan, she had just given birth to a daughter. Afraid that her mother-in-law would be unhappy and worried that she wouldn't receive proper postnatal care because she gave birth to a girl, she told her own mother and decided to go back to her parents' home for confinement.
Her original self had already left, it was impossible for her to despise anyone. Therefore, Li Juan had avoided the two funerals of the Song family during her confinement period. Now, things were different because Ripple was here. With her presence, the Song family would naturally not fall apart.
"Mom, I brought both Juanzi and Beibei back."
As soon as Song Qingchuan entered the door, he shouted towards the main hall.
"Hurry and let your daughter-in-law and child go inside, don't catch a cold. It's just after she's given birth, so we need to be careful. I'll come over to your house later to see the baby."
Liàn Yī stood at the door and said.
"Oh, alright, Mom!"
Song Qingchuan responded with a sound, then hugged the child and led his wife into the house.
Li Juan entered her and her husband's bedroom, took off her coat, and after scanning the room, she nodded in satisfaction.
"Don't worry, I cleaned the whole house yesterday, just like you said. I even changed the sheets, pillowcases, and blankets to new ones."
Song Qingchuan opened his daughter's bag and carefully placed the child on the side of the bed.
It was Li Juan who finally spoke:
"My mom seems to be in good spirits."
“Well, things have eased up a bit these past two days. Da Bao is with her, and she's distracted, so she doesn't overthink things anymore.”
Then if I have a daughter, will Mom not be angry
Li Juan still couldn't help but ask another question.
"What's there to be angry about Our mom already has a grandson, and now she has a granddaughter. She's happy. It's just that the incident with your older brother hit her hard, so she didn't notice you for a while. Don't overthink it."
Song Qingchuan knew his daughter-in-law was perceptive, so he immediately comforted her.
Li Juan was just about to ask a couple more questions when there was a knock on the door, followed by her mother-in-law's voice:
"Qingchuan, Juanzi, I'm here."
"Mom, come in here quickly!"
The young couple immediately got off the kang and greeted them.
After entering, Lian Yi sat on the edge of the bed. She first glanced at her granddaughter, who was not at all shy. The little one showed a toothless smile to Lian Yi, and saliva flowed from her mouth.
"Oh, my sweet little darling, Grandma is so happy to see you!"
Ripples danced upon the pink, fluffy little ball, evoking a strange and wonderful feeling.
"Grandma, I want to see my sister too."
Dabao stood anxiously pacing by the kang.
"Have a look at your sister."
Ripple lowered the child and let Dabao see.
"Mommy, my sister is drooling."
"It's normal, all babies do this. You did it when you were little too."
Liri smiled and said.
Li Juan kept paying attention to Lianyi's expression, seeing that she didn't have any disgust towards her daughter eased the stone in her heart. After all, living under the same roof, if her mother-in-law didn't like her daughter, she wouldn't want to endure it. This was flesh that had fallen from her own body.
After teasing the child for a while, Lian'er passed the child to Qingchuan, then pulled out a small red pouch from her large pocket. When she opened it, there was a pair of silver bangles and a silver longevity lock inside.
"These are the silver bangles and long life lock I made for Beibei, hoping she grows up healthy and strong."
After finishing, he carefully put it on Beibi.
Qingchuan and Lijuan looked at each other, their eyes filled with smiles. It seems that Mom (mother-in-law) treats all her grandchildren equally.
"Mom, I'm so sorry for the expense. This bracelet and pendant are truly exquisite."
Li Juan immediately laughed and said.
Can it not be exquisite This is inventory from the Ripple Space, but just to ensure the child's safety, she had her spiritual power inscribe runes onto these lockets and bangles.
Because of the existence of evil spirits, she could also mobilize the spiritual energy within space to fight against them. However, the amount of spiritual energy she could use each time was very limited. It took her three days to complete this, which is also the suppression of heaven's way against forces that do not belong to this plane.
After giving the child the present, Lian Yi took thirty yuan from his pocket—some bills and some coins—and handed it directly to Li Juan.
Li Juan subconsciously caught it, then reacted and asked in doubt:
"Mom, why are you giving me money"
“This is money to help you out. When your sister-in-law gave birth, I took care of her during her confinement period. I intended to do the same for you when you had your baby, but unfortunately, things happened at home. Your older brother passed away suddenly, so I couldn't take care of both you and little Beibei. I know your mother-in-law must have been worried. Please accept this money as a way for me to help your young family.”
R ripples spoke directly.
"Mom, you're being too much. Everyone has their own problems. Both my parents and I understand."
Li Juan immediately said, the little knot in her heart before, had already dissipated completely when her mother-in-law took out money and presents one after another.
"My good children, if you understand, my heart will be at ease. Please don't push back, just accept it!"
After Ripples finished speaking, she didn't linger long and went to prepare dinner. Da Bao, on the other hand, said he wanted to look at his little sister for a while longer, so he kicked off his shoes and went upstairs to play with her.
After her husband nodded, Li Juan took the money and rolled up her sleeves to prepare dinner with Lianyi.
Lian Ri didn't want to be a bad stepmother, so she only let Li Juan chop vegetables and didn't let her touch the cold water. She also specially stewed pig's feet and soybean soup for her to drink, which helped her produce more milk.
Li Juan felt very happy all the way until she finished dinner and lay in bed.
"Xiaozi, our mother is really wise."
Well, that goes without saying.
Song Qingchuan lay in bed, feeling somewhat smug, then sighed and said:
"Juanzi, don't just look at how your mom seems fierce on the outside. You know, back then when Dad passed away, Mom had to take care of all four of us, she had no choice but to be strong."
"Big brother was also newly married at that time, and he and his sister-in-law were just getting used to each other. Life was a bit chaotic, until the birth of their eldest son, things improved."
"Hey! Speaking of your sister-in-law, it just occurred to me, I haven't seen her today."
She has been staying at her parents' home.
Song Qingchuan didn't hide anything either.
Li Juan listened and her eyes flickered. She then asked in a low voice:
"Ah-Zi, your sister-in-law wants to remarry.", she summoned Wen Lan and instructed her to take good care of Wang Zhenzhen. After passing on all her life's internal energy to Wang Zhenzhen, Lian Yi returned to the Time Management Bureau with the...
