But thinking about it, she couldn't say it like that. Bai Yunxi looked into Du Shi's eyes and raised her hand to tuck a strand of her temple hair behind her ear.
"You may be thinking too much. I have read in books before that women's mood fluctuates greatly before and after giving birth. It is easy for women to think too much and worry about gains and losses. If you yourself are overly looking forward to giving birth to a boy, but there is a gap in your heart, your mood will suffer.
Influence."
"Moreover, during the confinement period, anyone's words or eyes can affect your mood. You will be irritable, irritable, and want to cry at every turn. In fact, this is a postpartum disease, but it is a pity that it is generally not taken seriously.
"
Listening to her mother-in-law's explanation, Du Shi was stunned. Did her mother-in-law mean that she was sick at that time?
"It should have been taken seriously at that time... Anyway, it's all over. Look at how well Yaya has been taken care of by us. I dare say there is no child in the village who can compare to our Yaya."
Thinking of her daughter, Mrs. Du couldn't help but smile. Her mother-in-law was indeed right. Her daughter was better than the boys in the village. She not only read and read, but also learned simple female needlework. She could already embroider a leaf by herself.
Seeing Mrs. Du's proud look on her face, Bai Yunxi breathed a sigh of relief silently.
"Both men and women can be outstanding as long as they are well-educated. Mother will not look down upon you because you have no son. To put it bluntly, you and I are both women. If we despise ourselves, how can we be human?"
"So, in my mother's heart, men and women are the same. As long as they are of the Bai family's blood, they are the treasures in my hands."
Du: "..."
"No matter how your mother-in-law teaches you, in our family, I will not allow you to be wronged. If you encounter problems, just solve them. If you can't solve them yourself, just discuss them with your family. They say that three cobblers are better than Zhuge Liang, but you are better than one."
It’s better to have a sad face, right?”
Du Shi looked at her mother-in-law with red eyes. They were both mothers, so why was there such a big difference?
She is the flesh that fell from her mother's body. She has never felt family affection since she was sensible. Instead, she felt maternal love from her mother-in-law. It is said that a woman's marriage is her second reincarnation. Although she did not meet a good man, she did.
A mother-in-law who can support her.
"Mom, if I go back to my parents' house...if they know that our family's life is getting better, they will definitely have some ideas. I don't want to..."
Before she finished speaking, Mrs. Du's face turned red. Her mother-in-law's family couldn't get on the stage, and if she said it to her face, it would always look bad on her face.
Looking at Du Shi's blushing cheeks, Bai Yunxi looked at her,
"Do you want to help your mother's family?"
In fact, there is some help you can do, but it depends on whether it is worth it.
Listening to her mother-in-law's tone, Mrs. Du was stunned for a moment, silent for a while, nodded and shook her head, leaving Bai Yunxi looking confused.
"My mother-in-law's life is pretty good, and it's not to the point of needing help... If you are too poor to take the blame, it's okay for me to lend a hand as a daughter."
In fact, how could I not know what her mother was thinking?
In my mother's heart, my daughter is an outsider, and my son is the closest to me. If I can get some benefits from my daughter to supplement my son, the more the better. As for whether my daughter is doing well or not, my mother doesn't care at all.
If you can't help, they will only think that you are incompetent, have no future, can't win a man's heart, and can't get the attention of your mother-in-law. There is no other way out except to endure.
Since her father-in-law passed away, her mother's family has not visited her once.
Listening to Du's voice, Bai Yunxi didn't find it strange at all. Not to mention the current preference for sons over daughters, even in her time, there were many families that favored sons over daughters.
These are all outdated ideas that have been passed down for thousands of years and cannot be changed in a short period of time.
"In that case, you just have to do your part and there is no need to worry about it."
"Don't worry, Mom, I know."
She can refuse once or twice, but my mother knows that she is easily soft-hearted. If she puts down her face and begs, she will definitely not be able to resist. This is also what worries her the most.
Bai Yunxi raised her hand and pinched the center of her eyebrows. She expressed her gratitude to some relatives who were greedy and had no sense of boundaries.
"If you are too embarrassed to refuse, just push me out. If you apply to others, your mother is also a mother-in-law, so she will understand best."
Listening to her mother-in-law giving her advice, Du Shi's eyes lit up, and then her cheeks turned red, "Mom, I know what to do."
Seeing the noise coming from the kitchen, Mrs. Du quickly stood up and said, "Mom, I'm going to cook."
We agreed to celebrate today, but she almost forgot about it when she disrupted it.
"Let's go, it's just us as a family, we can eat early or late." Seeing her hurried back to her room, she knew she was going to tidy up her appearance without asking.
Bai Yunxi sat on the Arhat bed, pinching her brows. She was not afraid of how tricky the Du family was, and at most they would break up and stop contacting each other. But the Du family was her daughter-in-law and the biological mother of her granddaughter, so she couldn't ignore it.
For now, let Du Shi handle it by herself. If she can't handle it, I will step in to take care of it for her.
When Du rushed to the kitchen, Bai Anjing had already peeled the eggs, wrapped them in a handkerchief and handed them to her.
"Sister-in-law, you have just boiled hot eggs. Sister Wen said you can use this on your eyes to reduce swelling and beautify your face."
Du's face turned red. The way she hugged her mother-in-law and cried just now must have been heard by everyone. It was so embarrassing.
"I……"
Before she could speak, she was interrupted by Mrs. Li waving her hand.
"Sister-in-law, there is no need to explain, we all understand. We are all poor children who grew up in the countryside. After my mother died, my father took me and my brother to live together. I was often bullied by my friends in the village, calling me motherless.
child."
"I was very sad at first, but then I started to fight back. I would hit anyone who scolded me. Later, no one dared to scold anyone in front of me anymore."
Li said, scratching her head in embarrassment,
"My father is a well-known honest man in the village, and I am also known for my strength...I guess my mother must have valued my strength when she chose me as her daughter-in-law."
"Pfft~,"
Bai Anjing looked at her and laughed without restraint. Although the second sister-in-law was naive, her guess was correct.
When Du was interrupted like this, the awkward atmosphere dissipated.
When it comes to cooking, Du Shi is really unambiguous. She shuttles between the pots and cutting boards quickly with her hands and feet. With the aroma of food filling the air, Baiyunxi rubs her belly and finally starts the meal.
Although the dinner was a little late, it was delicious and delicious. The whole family was satisfied with the meal and the atmosphere was particularly harmonious.
The next morning, Baiyunxi asked her second son to hitch a bullock cart, brought souvenirs, and went back to her parents' home with Mrs. Li.
"The land deed hasn't been issued yet. You can stay with your wife for a day or two. Then you can come back alone and let Mrs. Li stay with her father-in-law. You can take her back after a while."
Mrs. Li held the small bundle she had prepared, wore the new clothes Du Shi had made for her, put a new silver hairpin in her hair, and brought new earrings, and walked to Baiyunxi with a smile.
"Mom, do you think I look good in my clothes?"
Today it has been changed to two thousand and one chapters.
