Changping Village.

Yang Huamei was sitting on a pony in the yard peeling peanuts, with a round sieve and an open twine bag at her feet.

A small half bag of shelled raw peanuts was revealed in the twine bag. Yang Huamei sat there and patiently peeled the peanut kernels into a sieve. The peanut shells were piled aside, making a crackling sound in the yard.

"Mom, let me peel it off for you!"

After Hongmei entered the yard, she came to Yang Huamei and squatted down with a sweet smile on her face.

Yang Huamei raised her eyelids and glanced at Hongmei, then chuckled, "Hey, what kind of wind brought you, a noble person like you, here? I thought you would never step foot in this shabby yard of my house in your whole life!"

Hongmei was not annoyed, and said with a good-tempered smile: "What did mom say? This old house is also my home. The place where mom is, is our home."

"Bah!" Yang Huamei spat hard.

"Pull me down. Do you still think that I will be deceived by your lies today?"

"Mom, this is not a lie," Hongmei said with an apologetic smile, "No matter how much you dislike me, we will always be mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, and you will always be my son's biological grandmother."

"Let's just talk among ourselves. We are a family. Who's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law don't have a little bit of trouble with each other?"

Yang Huamei threw the peanut shells in her hand heavily on the ground, lowered her face, raised her voice and asked: "Then according to what you said, it is natural for you as a daughter-in-law to talk back to your mother-in-law? Gungun, don't stand in front of me, I see you like this

You get upset when you open your mouth!"

Hongmei was pushed back several steps by Yang Huamei and almost fell down.

"Mom, you can't push anymore. There are courtyard walls and rocks behind this. If I break my head, I will become the second mother-in-law who accidentally killed her daughter-in-law."

Hongmei stood firm while holding on to the wall, and started joking with Yang Huamei with a smile.

When Yang Huamei saw Hongmei almost falling, she was actually startled, and the incident with Jiang Er's family did flash through her mind.

"Bah, you crow mouth, just curse me!"

Yang Huamei turned her face and cursed, but her resisting attitude was obviously a bit more relaxed than before.

Hongmei took advantage of the situation and ran up the pole, came over and took Yang Huamei's arm and said with a smile: "Mom, even if I have a crow's mouth, it's a curse on myself."

"Don't worry, Mom. Whenever I have a breath, I will explain to Dabai and the rest of the world that it has nothing to do with Mom. I was the one who fell because I didn't stand firm."

"Okay, okay, stop talking nonsense, I don't want to hear it!" Yang Huamei interrupted Hongmei and glared at her.

"You are talking nonsense here, where is the baby?" In the end, he still couldn't overcome his grandmother's heart, and couldn't help but want to ask about his eldest grandson.

Hongmei said: "I'm sleeping in the house!"

Yang Huamei glared: "The baby is sleeping, you should be watching by the side, why are you running around?"

Hongmei suddenly stopped smiling and changed to a sad face.

"Mom, I can only come over here while he is asleep. I won't be able to go out when he wakes up."

"Mom, your eldest grandson has been so noisy these past few nights and hasn't slept at all. I'm young and inexperienced. I didn't want to burden my mother with this, but I really can't stop it. I have to come and ask my mother to come out!"

Yang Huamei originally wanted to ridicule Hongmei, but when she heard her eldest grandson crying at night, she immediately became nervous.

"Logically speaking, it's not uncommon for children to cry at night... How does he cry?"

Hongmei thought about it carefully and said: "It's not crying loudly, it's intermittent crying. I don't sleep well and wake up easily. Even if I'm coaxed to sleep, I cry a few times."

"Did he cry like that when he slept in a cradle or in your arms on the bed?" Yang Huamei asked again.

Hongmei thought for a moment and said, "I don't sleep in the cradle at all at night. I put him in the cradle and he cried loudly, as if there was a needle pricking him in the cradle."

"He lies in my arms at night, but even then he is not at ease. When I touch his forehead, he doesn't feel hot or dizzy. He just cries. I don't know what's going on!"

Yang Huamei frowned, then casually sealed the peanut bag and carried it back to the main room. She wiped the handle again and called to Hongmei, "Let's go and take a look!"

As soon as Yang Huamei came to the two- to three-meter-wide passage connecting the two houses, she heard the cry of a child coming from the new house.

"Oh, I'm awake!"

Yang Huamei patted her thigh and ran towards the new house. At the same time, she was already shouting: "Don't cry, dear, grandma is here, my grandson is good..."

The cradle was placed under the window of the east wing. The child was sleeping in the cradle. At this time, his little face was wrinkled, his two little hands were clenched and scratching, and his two little feet were kicking around under the quilt.

The eyes were tightly closed and the mouth was grinning widely. The baby, who was nearly two months old, had no baby teeth in his mouth. When he started crying, he could see pink gums and a tender little tongue, which made Yang Huamei's heart go crazy.

They twisted together in pain.

She quickly rushed to the cradle, pushed the cradle gently, and at the same time she was still coaxing loudly: "My baby is not crying, grandma is here, I am really a good boy..."

The child's crying gradually subsided, his eyes slowly opened a thin slit, and he hummed.

Hongmei also followed over. When she saw the child in the cradle and Yang Huamei beside the cradle, Hongmei secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

It seems that what Yang Ruoqing and others said last time was right. Even if this mother-in-law is bad in a thousand ways, when it comes to her grandson, she can really dig her heart out.

Hongmei felt that she had acted too hastily before. She originally thought that pregnancy and confinement were the times when she was most vulnerable and needed the most care from others, so she obeyed all arrangements made by her mother-in-law.

I originally thought that after giving birth to a child, I would be able to completely harden myself and kick my mother-in-law out and never have any contact with her until the end of her life.

But I didn’t expect that the hard work of raising children was far beyond my imagination.

If nothing else, let’s talk about the child’s sleeping problem.

He goes to bed when he's full, but can't sleep for a long time. He wakes up soon after. When he wakes up, he wants to eat and hold him, and when he's done, he goes back to sleep.

Especially at night, it goes back and forth several times. Sleeping time is divided into countless fragments, and it is impossible to get a sound sleep at all.

During the day, I finally waited for him to fall asleep, but I couldn't sleep with him. I had to wash the pile of dirty clothes and diapers he had changed while he was asleep.

In addition, there are some housework at home, and I have to cook and eat. Many times, when the work is done, he wakes up again and has to continue to take care of him...

After several days, Hongmei felt like she was going crazy. The shadows under her eyes were so deep that she was pretending to walk and yawning again and again.

Especially these two days, it has been extremely noisy.
