The Eldest Sister is Like a Stepmother [60’s]

Lin Yiyi is really satisfied with Qin Xiangju's mother-in-law, and she is very happy to have such a mother-in-law. Let's not talk about what happened before the pregnancy. In the past few months after pregnancy, she has been taking care of herself, not to mention the laundry, cooking, and cleaning. Lin Yiyi thinks that it is her own mother.

It is true, not to mention that this era is not friendly to women, even in later generations, many families are only children, and they may not be good to their daughters. When my daughter is pregnant, she may not take care of her like this, and it is still a few months, not a month or two. Some of her colleagues are not short of only children. Some people complain that their mother is not good, and some people complain that their mother-in-law is not good. In fact, in the final analysis, parents' obligation is to raise their children to adulthood. They have no obligation to take care of their daughters (daughter-in-laws) during pregnancy and confinement, or even take care of their children. It's just that children are all debts, and in front of their parents, they will always want more for free. If they are a little dissatisfied, they will blame their parents.

Lin Yiyi herself was one of them. She would be polite to others, but in front of her parents, she would not be happy if she was unhappy, and she would show her face. . Before, she didn't feel anything, and she didn't appreciate anything. But now, compared to Qin Xiangju's, and she is pregnant, she suddenly finds that she was a little self-willed before, maybe because she became a mother, her mentality is different.

When it was almost noon, Lin Dajun and Lin Sanjun came on bicycles. The reason why the two brothers came back to eat after working on the pig farm was because they had bicycles. Lin Yiyi's family has two bicycles, one is a men's model of Xiao Yu, and the other is a woman's model of Lin Yiyi. Now the men's model is ridden by Lin Dajun and Lin Sanjun, and the women's model is by Lin Sijun. . After all, Lin Sijun is only 14 years old, and neither of his two older brothers are tall, so riding a lady's bicycle is more suitable.

However, when Lin Dajun was 14 years old, he was not as tall as the current Lin Sijun. Lin Dajun was still 61 years old at that time, and his stomach was not full and his nutrition was not good.

Lin Yiyi: "You are here, the Fourth Army bought you delicious food today."

Lin Dajun: "What's so delicious?"

Lin Yiyi: "White cantaloupe."

Lin Dajun: "What kind of melon is that? Is it better than watermelon?" Lin Dajun had never eaten it.

Lin Sijun: "It's delicious. I took a bite when I bought it at the supply and marketing cooperative, and it was sweet and fragrant." Because this is the first cantaloupe that appeared, no one has ever eaten it, so the supply and marketing cooperative cut a cantaloupe,

It was cut into very small pieces for everyone to taste for free. Therefore, Lin Sijun had eaten it, and even Lin Wudi had eaten it. So on the way back, Fifth Brother Lin quarreled and wanted to eat.

Lin Dajun: "Is it better than watermelon?"

The other one has already taken out the white cantaloupe from the well water, and one melon is cut into eight pieces: "Eat it, eat it, take a rest and then eat."

...

Qin Xiangju: "Sit and don't move, don't move..." Seeing that her daughter-in-law was going to move something, Qin Xiangju was worried, "You're already so big, you're about to give birth, don't move, just look at you Move, my heart is twitching."

It's the end of September now, and Lin Yiyi's birth date is mid-October. Although the child born in the countryside was delivered by Mrs. Wen, Lin Yiyi was worried and she still had to go to the hospital to give birth. So at the end of September, she decided to move back to the county seat.

The house in the county town was traded with Brother Wang before, and she has never lived in it. But after Xiao Yu resumed business, the house was repaired. Because the things in the house of the county workers' hospital had to be moved away, it was put in the house under the name of Lin Yiyi in the county seat. No need to prepare, everything is there.

Qin Xiangju moved the things and got on the ox cart with Lin Yiyi.

The houses in the old hutongs are very new after being repaired. More importantly, the people living in the old hutongs are all people from the old county, and their ancestors have been here for generations, which makes people feel more at ease.

When the ox cart arrived at the gate of the courtyard, the neighbor next door came out to see: "Are you from this family?" When the house was being repaired before, the neighbors also saw it and thought it would be moved soon. Several months later.

Qin Xiangju said: "Yes, we belong to this family, this eldest sister is good."

The old lady who greeted her was about the same age as Qin Xiangju, but she looked older. Her husband's surname was Ma, and everyone called her Sister Ma. In fact, Sister Ma is also surnamed Ma and is the child bride of her husband's family.

Sister Ma said: "Hello, how are you, I remember that the head of the household is the deputy director of the Public Security Bureau? Are you his wife and mother-in-law?" It's not difficult to find out who lives here. However, plus Jin-Woo didn't plan to hide it either. Moreover, it is better to let people know that this is the home of the deputy director of the Public Security Bureau, so that no one dares to come here.

Qin Xiangju: "Yes, yes, but I'm not my mother-in-law, this is my daughter-in-law."

Sister Dama: "Ah yo, looking at you two, I thought it was mother and daughter." Seeing them on a blind date, how could they look like a mother-in-law and a daughter-in-law

what.

Lin Yiyi said with a smile: "My parents' family and my husband's family have a good relationship. My mother-in-law watched me grow up since I was a child. Later, in the 60 years, my life was not good. My parents went. At that time, I was only 15 years old, and I was also My mother-in-law takes care of me, so my mother-in-law is just like my mother."

Madam Ma: "No wonder."

Qin Xiangju: "My daughter-in-law is just like my daughter-in-law, and my daughter-in-law is not as filial as my daughter-in-law."

Sister Ma: "Why did you come here? Your house has been repaired long ago."

Qin Xiangju: "Before my daughter-in-law worked in the commune, and she was pregnant again, so she lived at home. Now that she is about to give birth, she lives in the county and is closer to the hospital."

Sister Ma: "No, it's better to live in the county town. I heard that your son is the deputy director of the Public Security Bureau. Is this true? Do the comrades of the Public Security Bureau have no staff house?"

Qin Xiangju: "My son has resumed his career. He used to be the deputy director of the Public Security Bureau. In May, he went to the army to resume his career."

Sister Ma: "Ah, this is still a comrade of the People's Liberation Army, a comrade of the People's Liberation Army, a comrade of the People's Liberation Army..." People of this era have innate respect for soldiers.

Qin Xiangju and Sister Ma moved things while chatting. After the things were done, she cleaned up again, and said to Lin Yiyi: "One by one, the second child's military affairs can be known to everyone, everyone knows. We are military members, and it is safer for our mothers to live here."

Lin Yiyi: "Mother is right, listen to you."

When it was time for dinner, a voice came from outside: "Sister...Sister, are you there?"

As soon as Lin Yiyi heard this voice, she knew that it was Lin Dajun who was here. Lin Dajun was in the first year of high school this year. Although his grades were average, he was admitted to high school anyway. She used to live at the school. After she gave birth to a child, she wanted to live in the county seat, so she let Lin Dajun live here. There is no man at home, and it would be inconvenient if there was an emergency. Lin Dajun is a 17-year-old boy, and some people are 17-year-old. Boys can have children.

Lin Yiyi walked out of the room: "I'm here, you're here? Come in, do you have anything?"

Lin Dajun: "I don't have anything, just a bag." After entering the yard, Lin Dajun asked, "Sister, where do I live?"

Lin Yiyi: "You should live in the next room." When their house was being repaired, the layout of the house was redesigned. Although there are still three rooms, one kitchen, and two rooms, because the layout has been reworked, there are more rooms.

The first is their room, which is separated from the inside and the outside. The inside is the bedroom, and the outside is divided into a study.

, The study also has a bed, you can work and sleep.

The other room, although not separated, has two beds. In fact, this yard is no different from the original staff room, except that the yard is smaller and there is one less utility room. Things like coal and firewood are placed in a wooden shed that you build yourself.

Qin Xiangju: "The army is here? It's time to eat."

Lin Dajun: "Come here, thank you, my aunt."

After eating a good meal, Lin Dajun went to fetch water. The tap water in the 1960s was not settled in every house. There was a tap water point in the county.

Lin Yiyi stretched her stomach and followed her. She was here to familiarize herself with the road conditions, and to digest food by the way. There were also people in the alley who came out for a walk after eating.

Sister Ma: "One by one, are you out for a walk?"

Lin Yiyi: "Aunt Ma."

Sister Ma: "Hey, come here to talk, they are all neighbors, come and come, I'll introduce you."

Lin Yiyi went over and chatted with everyone for a while, so everyone knew that Lin Yiyi was the girl who proposed to grow vegetables in the kitchen pit before, but no, everyone was very curious about Lin Yiyi and admired her very much. Growing vegetables in kitchen pits may not be of much help to the county town, but it is of great help to the countryside. In addition, the newspapers in the county town have also reported on this incident, so everyone has an impression. Later, everyone learned that she was a member of the military, her husband was in the army, and her mother-in-law was taking care of her at home. I have to say that what Qin Xiangju said is still right, and it is necessary to reveal her information inadvertently.

Both Lin Yiyi and Qin Xiangju lived well in the county town. When Qin Xiangju was free, she would gossip with Sister Ma and gossip. Within two days, she and her neighbors became acquainted. Qin Xiangju has been here for more than 9 months, cooking, washing clothes, and chatting gossip every day, so she is still very adaptable.

During the weekend, Xiao Daqiang and the brothers of the Lin family came. The brothers of the Lin family had lunch here and left. Xiao Daqiang was leaving the next morning, going directly from the county town to work in the commune.

The leisurely days arrived at noon on October 11. While eating lunch, Lin Yiyi's stomach suddenly hurt: "Mother... Mother, my stomach hurts, I... Am I going to give birth?" She pulled a little nervously. Hold Qin Xiangju's hand.
