Subconsciously, Xia Qingmai directly cleared a space outside the big bed.
"Put the book and inkstone here so that the brothers and sisters can sleep next to each other." Xia Qingmai raised her chin slightly and waited for Sun Fugui to obediently put her son down. Then she whispered in Sun Fugui's ear and continued: "Go get a basin of warm water. , I wiped the two children."
"What did you eat? Your face and hands are dirty." After saying that, she paused and asked, "Do you have the towels they use at home?"
"Yes." Sun Fugui followed suit and pinched his throat halfway. Seeing Xia Qingmai nodding, he continued: "Would you like to get some more water for you to wipe?"
Xia Qingmai shook her head, glanced at the little brother and sister sleeping next to each other, and then whispered back: "I have to pack the dowry."
Sun Fugui listened to Xia Qingmai's words and saw that her face was rosy and she didn't look sleepy, so he walked lightly out of the house and went outside to fetch water.
Although she was a mother for the first time, Xia Qingmai had taken care of her little brother Xia Qingyuan, and Princess Ruian had also watched her grandma and wet nurse take care of her little nephews and nieces.
So even if it was his first time, Xia Qingmai didn't panic.
On the contrary, Sun Fugui, the water he fetched was a bit hot at first, not knowing that the child's skin is tender and the water should be cooler than that of adults.
The two children were probably really sleepy. Even if Xia Qingmai and Sun Fugui wiped their faces and hands, they only moved.
Xia Qingmai was not angry when he saw the two children lying side by side on the brand new dowry blanket. Sun Fugui looked at Xia Qingmai and signaled that he had something to say.
Xia Qingmai originally thought that Sun Fugui was going to tell him about the gift money he received today, but when they came to the outside, what he was talking about was that Shuyu suddenly made a fuss about wanting his mother and not others.
"I guess it was Xiaoli who did this again. She likes to encourage children to do things behind their backs. She also encouraged several children in the eldest brother's family to not be close to the eldest sister-in-law."
"My eldest brother and my eldest sister-in-law had a fight over this matter, otherwise I wouldn't have been in a hurry to get married, because after my eldest sister-in-law found out what was going on, I agreed that my parents would take care of them in their old age, but they couldn't take care of other children. "
"Although my sister-in-law was targeting Xiaoli at the time, I was worried that if I let my parents take care of my child for too long, Xiaoli would send her Juanjuan away."
After saying this, Sun Fugui suddenly had the idea to talk. He looked at Xia Qingmai, sighed quietly, and continued: "My mother actually gave birth to a sister before me, but I still had breast milk at that time. My sister was smothered to death as soon as she was born."
"So after Xiaoli was born, my parents, my brother and I were very partial to her."
"A few years ago, she wanted to marry Dong Sande despite her family's objections, and then she made trouble for me to find a job for her man. I thought she was the only sister, so I also helped."
"But now it seems that she is really spoiled. She only thinks about Dong Sande all day long, and she is not good to Juanjuan."
Having said this, Sun Fugui closed his eyes, put away the regret in his heart, and then said: "Xiaoli will become like this. It is the responsibility of our Sun family, but it has nothing to do with you and my sister-in-law. If she dares to provoke her in the future, When it comes to you, you don’t have to take care of anyone, just deal with her."
After a pause, Sun Fugui finally said: "If you are not happy to do it yourself, just tell me and I will take care of her."
Xia Qingmai, who understood what was going on, raised his eyebrows slightly, looked at Sun Fugui, and said what his mother just said.
"I said why did mom come here to explain to me? It turns out that my sister-in-law has such a temper."
Seeing Sun Fugui's uneasy expression, Xia Qingmai gave him a comforting smile, and then said: "If she makes trouble with you, I can pretend not to see it, but as long as she makes trouble in front of me, I will definitely not let her."
Sun Fugui was not surprised at all by his wife's reaction.
He just hoped that his sister wouldn't be in a hurry to cause trouble, otherwise he wouldn't have the dignity to let his wife spare her.
As for other things, like telling his wife not to argue with his sister?
From the first day he met his daughter-in-law, Sun Fugui realized that her daughter-in-law was not a person who cared about such things.
She will be nice to people, but only out of basic human sophistication.
If you want her to treat you wholeheartedly, you must first give her all your sincerity.
So, he didn't want to talk too much. Anyway, his wife had a strong conscience.
Xia Qingmai was not surprised at all that Sun Fugui figured out his temperament so quickly.
He was born in the army and spent several months in the reconnaissance camp. It would be strange if he couldn't find it.
But it's one thing to find out, it's another thing to be willing to take the initiative to do things according to her temperament.
Thinking of Sun Fugui's kindness to her, Xia Qingmai also whispered as she followed him outside: "I have to pack my dowry, will you do it at home?"
"I'll finish cleaning up later and make dinner directly. What do you want to eat tonight?"
After all the guests at home have left, all the melon seed peels and all kinds of garbage on the floor have to be picked up.
As well as the dowry brought by the Xia family, Xia Qingmai planned to pack it in the afternoon.
I have things to do tomorrow and the next two days, but I don’t have time to deal with them.
Xia Qingmai was about to start moving as she spoke, but Sun Fugui held her hand and asked in a warm voice: "Going to get the certificate early tomorrow morning?"
As soon as Sun Fugui said these words, Xia Qingmai thought that getting married these days requires a marriage certificate.
From the moment she decided to marry Sun Fugui, Xia Qingmai had planned to live with him for the rest of her life as long as he didn't betray her.
So when she felt the temptation in Sun Fugui's tone, she nodded calmly and said: "Okay, tomorrow will be a good day. After receiving the marriage certificate, I can get some tickets to buy some things for the family."
Seeing that Xia Qingmai agreed, Sun Fugui, who couldn't help but feel worried even though he knew she wouldn't refuse, immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
Xia Qingmai didn't expect Sun Fugui to be nervous. She felt interesting in her heart. When she looked out the window and saw no one passing by, she immediately stepped up and kissed him on the corner of the lips.
"Then I'll get busy first." After Xia Qingmai finished speaking, he was about to leave, but the next moment he was directly hugged around the waist.
The aura belonging to Sun Fugui swept over her in the blink of an eye. His kiss was urgent and equally disorganized.
Confused and fascinated, Xia Qingmai boldly guessed whether he was his first relative.
But is this possible?
In broad daylight, the two of them had their own things to do. Even though they were emotionally moved by separation, they restrained themselves in the end.
Sun Fugui hugged Xia Qingmai and pecked her red lips again and again, while Xia Qingmai's hand kept drawing circles in the depression of Sun Fugui's lower back.
After about another two minutes, the two men let go of each other at the same time, and turned around with drawn eyes.
Xia Qingmai also had four boxes of dowry for this wedding. Counting the two large betrothal gifts she brought back, she also had six dowries.
If it were in the previous life, Xia Qingmai would definitely be dissatisfied, but now, Xia Qingmai's dowry is something that many girls don't have.
Among the four boxes of dowry, one box of old clothes needs to be taken out and put in the closet, and the shoes and socks that will be given to the parents-in-law tomorrow need to be taken out and put away separately.
In addition to the two beds given by her second aunt, one thick and one thin, and the quilts already spread on the bed, the rest was the dowry bought for her by her family and things given by her relatives.
Quilt cover, bed sheet, pillow cover, silk scarf given by my sister, hairpins given by my classmates, ordinary fabrics taken from Ruian Palace...
One by one, Xia Qingmai found a suitable place for them in this home.
More than half an hour later, this home was finally filled with the atmosphere of Xia Qingmai's life.
