"Momo has to go to work in a few days. I want my mother to help us take care of the children for a while. We will give her 10 yuan a month." Lu Changzheng said.
Li Yue'e immediately waved her hand, "It's no problem to help you babysit. No matter how much I pay, which nurse doesn't babysit?"
The third child had greeted her before and asked her to help take care of the children, which was no problem, but she didn't expect that they would pay her.
"I also showed it to your eldest and second brother's house. There's no reason why you should pay for it now."
"Mom, it's different. I want you to stop working and take care of our children full-time." Lu Changzheng said, "We are not one and the same. You can still work on my back."
He couldn't bear to let such a delicate child be exposed to the wind and sun with adults.
"As long as the children don't interfere with my work, I don't have to do any work in the field, so I will do the pig weeding. Your father is still here, and there are so many nieces and nephews. I will wait until the children go to sleep before going to do the pig weeding. Let them help watch."
"Yes, if things don't work out, I will still be there." Lu Qing'an also said. There is no reason to charge money for taking care of your grandchildren. If you tell it, it will make people laugh.
"Our families are separated..."
Before Lu Changzheng could speak, he was interrupted by Lu Boming, "We have separated the family, but we are still the grandparents of our children. Changzheng, if you feel that raising children will affect your mother's earning of work points, just buy more food at the end of the year." Give me the money. Too raw.
Lu Boming had already spoken, but Lu Changzheng didn't say any more. If you don’t charge money, then you can make it up from other places.
From now on, I will slowly persuade his mother to stop going to work and help take care of the children full-time at home.
So, the matter of taking care of the children was settled.
After returning after dinner, Lu Changzheng took a quick shower and then went inside to play with his children.
The two little ones just took a nap while eating, and are now full of energy.
Lele cooperated very well and giggled due to being amused, while An An watched speechlessly.
The humans in this incredible land don't look very smart.
"Daughter-in-law, why do I feel that our daughter seems to be... very cold?" Lu Changzheng said helplessly, and he had to use the word "future" to describe it appropriately.
Aren’t daughters all little cotton-padded jackets? Why doesn't his daughter like to talk to him?
"As a sister, you should be calmer," Su Mo said. She was not aloof. The body of a baby is the soul of an adult.
She had nothing to do during confinement and had been secretly observing the two children.
Lele should have been born normally, but she was smarter than ordinary children, and An An should have carried the memories of her previous life.
Because she had an experience of being drained of her powers, Su Mo was inevitably worried that An An would be a bad person.
But according to her observation, An An shouldn't be a bad person, but her personality is a bit awkward and she is a bit defensive. She seems to be cold and aloof, and can be very impatient from time to time, but she is actually very patient with Lele.
Several times when Su Yiyuan was away, Lele woke up and cried. Su Mo wanted to observe An An's reaction, so she pretended to be asleep.
At first, An An would howl a few times, trying to attract people, but when no one paid attention, she would babbling and waving her little hands to coax her brother. Later, whenever his brother cried, An An would start to comfort him.
Therefore, in Li Yuee's view, the two little ones are particularly easy to take care of and don't like to cry.
*******
At noon the next day, after Jiang Yue and Ma Xiaojuan finished work, they brought their things over to see Su Mo.
They had actually wanted to come for a long time, but they didn't come because Su Mo was in confinement and heard that her cousin was here again.
When I was at work this morning, I heard someone talking about twins. I knew Su Mo was already in confinement, so I hurried over.
The two of them teased the children for a while. The cute baby Lele naturally giggled in a dignified manner, while the cold girl An An still ignored her.
"Su Mo, your daughter has quite a personality." Ma Xiaojuan hugged An An and said with a smile.
Hey! The more she ignored her, the more she teased her.
Finally, An An got annoyed and peed directly. Ma Xiaojuan almost jumped up in shock and hurriedly gave the child to Su Mo.
Of course, Su Mo didn't ignore the cunning look in An An's eyes. He wiped her butt with a smile, changed her diaper, nodded her little nose and said, "Don't make fun of people next time."
After putting the children back on the kang, the three of them sat beside the kang and chatted.
Jiang Yue took out two pairs of tiger-head shoes from the cloth bag and said, "Sister Su Mo, my sister made these tiger-head shoes and asked me to give them to you. She was very happy when she heard that you had given birth to twins."
Su Mo thanked her and took it happily. The ginger orchid craftsmanship is very good, and the tiger head shoes made are particularly beautiful.
Then, Jiang Yue took out two small clothes made of white cotton from the bag, "Sister Su Mo, I made these for the children. I hope you don't dislike them."
Su Mo unfolded them and saw that the two small clothes were very unique. On the corners, the words "sister" and "brother" were embroidered with threads of different colors.
"The craftsmanship is really good and the clothes are beautiful. The children will definitely like them. Thank you, Jiang Yue." Su Mo thanked her, "Have you ever learned to make clothes before?"
Jiang Yue smiled sheepishly, "My mother taught me and my sister and I have learned it."
Her grandmother was a famous tailor. She used to make clothes for wealthy people. Her mother said that this skill should not be lost.
Su Mo looked at the clothes and shoes. This mother Jiang must be an incredible craftsman. Talents like this should remember that in a few years, there will be plenty of opportunities for cooperation.
Ma Xiaojuan also took out the things she brought with her from her bag and handed them to Su Mo: "Su Mo, you know I'm not very skilled, so I bought two kilograms of brown sugar to replenish your health."
"I was just going to buy brown sugar, and you brought it right now. We really have a good understanding of each other." Su Mo said with a smile.
"Really? Just use it." Ma Xiaojuan breathed a sigh of relief. She was still worried that the gift she gave was too light.
"Why can't we use something as good as brown sugar?"
Su Mo put everything away, and the three of them chatted for a while. Finally, Su Mo mentioned something: "I heard from my wife that the primary school in the brigade and commune will recruit more teachers next semester. You should hurry up and prepare. I estimate that in a few days The news will be announced tomorrow."
This news was told to her by Lu Changzheng a few days ago. The mining area is now stable, and some families of cadres and engineers will come over one after another. There will naturally be more children, so another class will definitely be opened.
When the two heard this, their eyes lit up.
If they can be admitted as teachers, they will not have to work in the fields, they will be able to enjoy the average work points of the brigade, and they will also get a few yuan in subsidies every month.
"Okay, let's go back and get ready." They all have their own houses now, and they don't have to worry about others knowing what they do inside.
After the two said goodbye to Su Mo, they hurried back.
Two more days passed.
Geng Changqing, who has been busy for more than a month, finally found time to come and take a look.
Geng Changqing came by car from the county, and he would have to leave soon. When the car drove to the brigade headquarters, Su Mo and Li Yue'e happened to be pushing their children for a walk there.
Seeing Geng Changqing, Li Yuee smiled and said to the children: "An'an Lele, your uncle and grandpa are here to see you."
The corners of Geng Changqing's mouth twitched, and he resisted to avoid breaking his guard.
The woman who got out of the car behind Geng Changqing couldn't hold back her laughter.
