The Clever Wife of the 1960s Chapter 85 (Part 1)

Sister Chen stayed in the hospital for two days and was taken home after two days.

Chen's mother is now very free, so she helps Wu Afang take care of her grandson. So when she heard that a baby was born, although her eldest sister-in-law's niece from her husband's side went over to help, Chen's mother still had to go to the city to take care of the baby.

My daughter is this age now.

"Guangguang, you are so beautiful. You little brat ran around everywhere and I don't know where you went after a while." Chen's mother said to Wu Afang.

"Okay." Wu Afang nodded and packed a lot of things for them to take into the city.

"Except for the eggs and two chickens, don't take anything else. Your aunt has everything, so you can't treat her badly." said Chen's mother.

The next day, Chen's mother came into the city.

Come to Chen Rou's grocery store first. Chen Rou and Han Guobin are both there.

Chen Rou said, "Why did you come all this way to bring this basket of eggs? And this chicken, it would be different if you just went to the city and bought it."

Mother Chen smiled and said, "I came here by car anyway, how can I be tired? How is your fourth sister?"

"Everything is fine. Her niece is called Xiaoxue. I've seen her. She's very capable and the family doesn't need my brother-in-law anymore. My fourth sister asked my brother-in-law to open a shop again." Chen Rou said with a smile.

"It's just confinement, there's no need to close the shop. You have to open it even if no one comes to help." said Chen's mother.

Chen Rou said, "My brother-in-law loves my sister. He was afraid that my sister would be bored during her confinement period, so he went to the furniture store and bought her a TV to help her pass the time. My sister scolded him."

Mother Chen was very satisfied and said with a smile: "Your sister is just like that. It's not like she can't afford it now, so just buy it."

"She was quite angry when she bought it, but after I saw she was looking at it happily." Chen Rou said.

Chen's mother said, "You can watch TV, but you can't watch it for too long. You're in confinement now, and your eyes will be damaged if you watch it for too long."

"My sister is well aware of this. She is even reluctant to pay the electricity bill," said Chen Rou.

Chen Rou is going to visit her sister in the afternoon, so her mother doesn't need to rush and can just wait to go together.

This was the first time that Chen's mother went to the city this year. Whenever Chen Rou sent something back, she would ask a freight tractor to deliver it.

She just asked about things in the village, her third brother, and her nephews.

As for my parents, you don't have to worry. They just check on me every month and I'm doing fine.

Naturally, the others didn't have to worry about it either. He said, "When Yutou and Leizi were little, they didn't feel anything. They grew up together like that. But now it's Guangguang's turn. It's really unbearable. There's no peace."

"It's time for everyone to leave, right?" Chen Rou said with a smile.

"He can walk. He learned to walk at twelve months old. Now he walks very fluently and can disappear in the blink of an eye. If I watch him all day, I won't be able to do anything." said Chen's mother.

"Then mother, if you go to the city, will my third sister-in-law be able to handle it?" Chen Rou said.

"He can still handle the work. You can ask your third brother to take him to the oil press. His personality is just like your third brother's. He likes lively places and goes wherever there is a lot of activity. When he sees everyone peeling peanuts, he also likes to join in, but he doesn't make any noise." Mother Chen said with a smile.

After that, he continued, "I originally thought that Guangguang was the youngest in our Chen family, but I didn't expect that your sister and your brother-in-law were both capable. They didn't have children when they were young, but now they are old enough to give birth to a pearl."

"That's right. I'm so envious." Han Guobin said.

Mother Chen smiled and said, "Don't be envious. You two gave birth to four children, all of them are good seedlings. People should envy you."

"Then the brothers An Wen and An Wu are not good seedlings. They will be extraordinary in the future." Chen Rou said with a smile.

Mother Chen was naturally happy. How could she not be happy since her two daughters' grandchildren were both promising?

The grandchildren have a promising future, that is, none of the grandchildren of the old Chen family have a promising future.

The third room, including the eldest brother Chen’s family, the second brother Chen’s family, including Lei Zi and Yu Tou, the third brother Chen’s family, all stopped studying after junior high school.

Chen's father and mother also hope that their grandchildren will have a bright future, but it seems that the Chen family is not destined to be successful in that regard, and none of them is good at studying.

Chen Rou smiled and said, "Then train Guangguang well, it will be the same when he graduates."

She was helpless about her parents' family. They had advised her to study hard, but she didn't even finish high school.

It was her fourth sister who listened to her and used threats and inducements to make An Wen and An Wu study hard, and finally they passed the exam.

Although it is not a bad job in the countryside, I will not have much choice in the future and can only do the same for the rest of my life.

Of course, as long as she works hard, it's not bad. Her third brother treats her well.

Otherwise, why has the relationship between Mrs. Chen Dasao and Mrs. Chen Ersao and the third wife become much more harmonious now, and their own son is receiving his third uncle's salary?

Seeing that it was almost time, Chen Rou took some food home to cook.

The second child came back with Han Cheng and the fourth child. There was a cafeteria in the school, but the food was not as good as the food at home. Except for the initial excitement of going there to eat, they later stopped liking going to the cafeteria.

"As soon as I walked in and smelled the fragrance, I knew it must be my grandma coming." said the fourth child with a smile.

Mother Chen was happy to see her grandchildren. She took out the bag from her pocket and started taking out money.

"Grandma, we have our own." The second child laughed.

"That's right. We are so old now, how can we still take your money?" Han Cheng also said.

The fourth child didn't bother to be polite with his grandmother, and said, "You should accept the gift from grandma. Although you don't need this little money, my third uncle is rich now, and my grandma doesn't need this little money either. When you grow up and work hard, you can give it to me as a filial son."

"You are the only one who can take grandma's money with a clear conscience." Han Cheng said.

"That's right. She's my grandma. I can't get money from my grandparents, so naturally I want my grandma's money." said the fourth little one.

Chen's mother smiled and said, "You don't have to push it away if it's given by grandma. Use the five dollars per person to buy study materials, study hard and get into a good university. That's the greatest respect for grandma."

"Don't worry, grandma. They are all college-bound students and successors to socialism," said the fourth child.

Mother Chen was very amused.

The second child and Han Cheng went into the house. The second child did his homework while Han Cheng went into the kitchen to help her mother. The fourth child pulled his grandmother to sit down and chat with her.

After a while, Chen Rou put Han Guobin's food into the lunch box and said, "Old Four, take the food to your father, and the pork ribs and kelp soup, don't let it dry out."

"Dad likes to eat kelp. Mom, can you give him a few more pieces?" The fourth child came over and said.

"Scoop it up." Chen Rou handed him two food boxes. The kelp was soaked and knotted to make pork ribs soup. It was nutritious and delicious, and Han Guobin liked it.

The fourth child went to bring food to his father, and then came back by himself. His family had just started eating, so he washed his hands and came over to eat together.

After finishing the meal and handing the dishes to the children, Chen Rou and her mother sat on the sofa to watch TV and rest.

The second child went to study with Chengzi, and the fourth child was in charge of washing the dishes. Because of this task, Chen Rou gave him an extra three yuan in pocket money every month.

Although the fourth brother doesn't like it at all, it's better than nothing.

Now that the second brother has a heavy workload at school, needless to say his sister, unless they are not at home, it is not his sister's turn, so he has to do it. But he is used to it and has no objection, because he has to wash even if he has no money.

"You're all so grown up now. I told you to have more children, but you didn't listen. Don't you regret it now?" Mother Chen snorted as she looked at the fourth child outside, who was washing dishes with his butt sticking out.

"What are you saying? Four is not enough now, right?" Chen Rou said with a smile.

"Four is not too many. In my opinion, even if you and Guobin have seven or eight children, it is not too many. Having more children will contribute to the country!" said Chen's mother.

"Mom, stop teasing me." Chen Rou laughed.

"What are you teasing me for? The way they are now, they will become pillars of society when they grow up. Isn't that contributing to the country?" said Chen's mother.

At the beginning, she wanted to have more children, after all, she could afford to raise them. The conditions in the village were not as good as her daughter's family, but her daughter just didn't want to have more children.

Look at him now, he’s so big now, and it makes me feel comfortable.

Chen Rou smiled and said, "It's not that great, but if they can contribute to the country, Guo Bin and I will be proud of them."

But this is not enough. If she had too many children, she would not be able to take care of them. The fourth child was originally redundant. However, she never regretted having a fourth child.

If the baby comes, it is fate, so he must be born.

Little Lao Si finished washing the dishes outside and came in to chat with his mother and grandmother.

Chen Rou asked, "Have you asked your godfather for money recently?"

"No way, I never have to ask my godfather for money, he always gives me money himself," said the fourth child.

"When you go to Beijing next week, you must protect your sister Baozhu, your sister Yaoyao, and your sister." Chen Rou said again.

"That's definitely no problem, mom, don't worry. You've seen my nunchakus. Anyone who dares to offend me will be hit on the head with a bang!" said the fourth little brother.

Mother Chen couldn't help but say, "Let the fourth child take the girls to Beijing? That won't work."

The fourth child was afraid that his grandmother would do something bad to him, so he quickly said, "Grandma, don't you see what grade I am in now? I am in the second semester of the fourth grade, and I am already in the fifth grade. My father said that when my eldest brother and second brother were this age, they were not as tall as me, and I also know martial arts!"

"Whether you know martial arts or not is one thing, but you are still a child. How can you let him take a few girls with him?" Chen's mother said this to Chen Rou.

Chen Rou looked at Xiao Lao Si.

The little boy thought something was wrong, so he did a somersault without saying a word and performed a little trick for his grandmother!

After watching, Chen's mother laughed and said, "This is a pretty good show. If he had a little monkey, he could ask for a reward."

"Grandma, your grandson's skills are not just fancy moves. Most adult men are no match for me." The fourth child said unhappily.

Don’t be fooled by his small size, but his fists and legs are very powerful!

"It's still too young." said Chen's mother.
