Famine Bride: Marry into the best in-laws and win

Chapter 368: Pleasant

"Oh, finally the person I've been waiting for is back. Third daughter-in-law, come here, let me hug my darling grandson."

As soon as the two brothers Shen Lao Da pulled the cart to the door, the old lady ran over and hurriedly wanted to hug the child in Xu Manyue's arms. Her face was almost smiling.

Xu Manyue smiled helplessly and handed the sleeping child to her. "Mom, let's go into the house first. It's windy and cold outside. What if you catch a cold?"

The old lady lowered her head to look at the child's fair and tender face, which was rosy from sleeping and looked very adorable.

She smiled even more and hugged the child tightly, "Okay, don't let my dear grandson get cold."

A trace of envy flashed in the eyes of Shen Lao Er who was standing by. He had just taken a look at the child, who was white and chubby, and really very likable, and looked a lot like the third child.

If only... he had a son too.

He got married about ten years earlier than the third brother, but now the third brother has a son, but he only has one daughter who always protects his mother and hates him.

After entering the house.

The old lady sat in front of the dining table holding the child. Everyone in the Shen family gathered around, wanting to see the child. Xu Manyue, the mother, couldn't squeeze in, so she simply gave up.

She found a place to sit down, and when she looked up, she saw Lin Luoxia standing in the corner watching everything quietly.

Lin Luoxia also noticed her gaze, then walked over and sat next to her.

"Third sister-in-law, congratulations! Look how happy mother is! Our family hasn't been this lively in a long time."

As she spoke, she looked at Shen Lao Er who was surrounding the old lady and vying to look after the child, and a complex expression flashed in her eyes.

It was also the first time she saw Shen Jianyun like this.

Xu Manyue smiled faintly and said nothing.

She is now always a little more wary of this person, and sometimes they can't even communicate with each other.

Lin Luoxia didn't care about her attitude and continued to talk to herself, "Third sister-in-law, what do you say...how about I have another child? Maybe Baozhu will have another brother or sister to help her in the future, and her life will be better."

Xu Manyue was stunned for a moment, but couldn't help but speak, "Second sister-in-law, once a child is born, parents have to be responsible for them. You can't just give birth to a child at will."

What does it mean to be helpful to Baozhu?

Children are not objects, you can’t do whatever you want to them.

Lin Luoxia was silent for a moment, "Third sister-in-law, you are right, I was wrong."

She had previously agreed with Baozhu that she only wanted her one child in this life. Now that this idea came up again, it was inevitable that Baozhu would think too much about it in the future.

What's more, if she really did get it, Baozhu would feel insecure.

Xu Manyue sighed secretly. This person's eyes had been on Shen Laoer just now. She felt that Lin Luoxia didn't seem to have no feelings for Shen Laoer at all.

The same goes for Shen Lao Er. He also has feelings for Lin Luoxia.

But how could the two of them live their lives like this, not only hurting each other, but also hurting their children.

"Look, my dear grandson is so cute. Look at his rosy little face, look at his chubby little hands, he is so adorable." The old lady was satisfied every time she looked at the child while holding him. Her heart softened and she wished she could hold him forever.

"Big Boss, look at us, does our Tuantuan look like the third brother when he was little?"

Boss Shen glanced down and nodded seriously, "They look alike, they are just like each other."

"He has the same temperament as me, he is indeed the third brother's son."

The old lady lowered her head and rubbed her forehead against the child's face. "That's not true. It's natural for a son to look like his father. When the fourth child was born, he also looked like his father, but as he grew up, he looked less and less like him."

"I don't know how it grew. Oh, and the New Year is coming the day after tomorrow. Why hasn't the fourth brother come back yet?"

Logically speaking, he should be back.

Shen Lao Er withdrew his gaze from the child's face, raised an eyebrow and said, "Mom, you don't know, not only is he doing very well as an apprentice in the machinery factory, but he's also been spotted by the daughter of a factory leader, who's been pestering him every day."

"Maybe he will be able to become a regular employee soon."

When these words were spoken, the Shen family was stunned.

Even Boss Shen was the same. He frowned and said, "Second Brother, please don't talk nonsense. How come I don't know about this?"

The two of them went to the city together to look for someone. There was no reason why he didn't know about it while the second brother knew about it.

Shen Lao Er smiled and said, "Brother, what are you sensible about? Although they didn't say it explicitly, I have inquired about it. The young woman following Lao Si is the daughter of the deputy director of their machinery factory."

"That deputy director happens to be in charge of personnel matters, so a regular position would be a piece of cake for him. As long as the fourth brother is willing to work hard, he can become a regular employee right now without waiting another two years, becoming a city dweller and eating commercial grain."

I have to say that the fourth brother is very lucky, and basically all the good things belong to him.

Now I am so lucky that I will soon have a powerful father-in-law and a beautiful daughter-in-law from the city. It will be easy for them to find a job and get a house in the future.

It took a long while for the old lady to come back to her senses. "What does the fourth brother think?"

For most rural children, this is indeed a good thing that is hard to find even with a lantern.

But a grown man can only live a good life by relying on his wife and father-in-law. Isn't this just living off his wife? How can he hold his head up in front of his wife and her family in the future?

Shen Lao Er shook his head. "I guess Lao Si is still thinking about that educated youth teacher at my third brother's wife's school. I don't know what he thinks."

If you ask him, Lao Si is just lucky and nothing else.

If it were him, he would have gone up long ago.

Not to mention that the leader's daughter is not bad looking, even if she is not good looking, he would be willing to marry her.

Unfortunately, he didn't have the same luck as the fourth brother.

Xu Manyue was also a little surprised. It had been less than a year since Shen Jianping went to the city, but he was already thinking about getting married to another woman. She thought that since he liked Meng Xiao so much before, he would at least stick with her for a few more years.

But it’s normal to think about it.

For most men, a woman is never as important as their future.

What's more, before, Shen Jianping only had a one-sided liking for Meng Xiao. That kind of liking was purely based on appearance, how deep could it be?

Speaking of Meng Xiao, it seems that this winter, two young educated youth came to Qingshan Brigade. Both of them were surnamed Meng. It seems that they are Meng Xiao's younger brothers and sisters.

There are still several years before 1966, but the Meng family has already made preparations and plans early on.

It seems that the Meng family is indeed extraordinary.

The old lady sighed, "Let the fourth son decide this matter himself. After all, it is his lifelong event. None of you are allowed to interfere, especially you, the second son."

"Don't give Old Four any random advice."

A couple is supposed to live together for their whole lives, and she doesn't want her old son to be unhappy in the future.
