Chapter 857 The First Skirmish Between Mother-in-Law and Daughter-in-Law
With Huang Jingping at home, the home finally felt like a home again. Feng Yiping even felt in a trance that the furnishings in the home were a bit brighter, and even the wind from the air conditioner was alive, not rigid and cool.
Huang Jingping was fully armed and cleaned up and down, inside and out. After a while, she took off her mask and said, "If you don't come back, this house will not be called home, but a nest."
In fact, it’s not as exaggerated as she said. When Feng Yiping is alone at home, although he can’t clean it every day, he will clean it at least once a week, up to ten days. Part-time workers, cleaning is definitely more professional than Huang Jingping.
However, as people who have been here before, both of them have children, and now they can still have such time alone, which makes him very satisfied, and now he finally has some conditions to satisfy himself.
For ordinary families, life with children and life without children are definitely two concepts. When children are young, children are the center of the family, and everything must revolve around children. Young couples have to wait until they become passionate once in a while. In the dead of night, sneaking around.
How could it be possible to leave the child abroad and live in the current two-person world like it is now?
"Aren't you going out today?"
"stay home,"
For a while, because he was alone at home, he was unprecedentedly dedicated to his work, and he had no concept of rest at all. He was either at school or at the company all day. After a few months, he gave himself a day off. It should be divided.
"Aren't you going to those invitations to break up dinner?"
"No,"
Just this morning, he answered more than a dozen calls, all of which invited him to dinner, some from his class, some from the department, and some from the entrepreneurial club, all of which he politely declined. If he went, To put it bluntly, it is just a glorious background board, so that the students who initiate it will have a bright face.
At the break-up meal, those students who found a good unit can show off their work, and people like Feng Yiping are of course more worthy of showing off.
Although he has a good temper and no airs, he can't be manipulated by anyone.
"I want to eat something, I'll make it right away,"
"Minced meat tofu, braised eggplant, twice-cooked pork, crystal shrimp, abalone sashimi, beer duck,"
Feng Yiping thought for a while, and then reported a list of dish names.
"Hehe, there are so many, it must be too late at noon, how about in the evening? Let's simply fry a steak at noon,"
"Listen to the arrangement of the hostess,"
Fundamentally speaking, Feng Yiping is a person who has no big ambitions and likes to live such a small life.
After the meal, they drank a little wine, and the two of them, who were slightly tipsy, finally hugged each other and took a nap, "Turn off your mobile phone," Huang Jingping reminded.
"I'll transfer it to Wu Qian," the shutdown is still not good.
But a wise man has a lot of worries, and there must be something wrong. When the two were sleeping soundly, the phone rang, "Hello!" Feng Yiping asked in a daze.
"Mr. Feng, I'm Wu Qian. I'm at the airport and have picked up your parents."
"What?" Feng Yiping woke up suddenly, and his parents came! Are you doing surprise attacks one after another?
"Wake up, don't sleep," Feng Yiping pushed Huang Jingping, "My parents will be here soon,"
"Ah," Huang Jingping was also shocked, "They know I'm back?" The news has not been shared by either family until now.
"It's probably the same as you, coming to my graduation ceremony," Feng Yiping felt a little regretful that he shouldn't have told them the time of his graduation ceremony.
…………
"Why do you two have such a big heart? The child is so young, so you can safely leave her abroad? The nanny can't take care of herself. If she is sick, what should I do?" Mei Qiuping looked at her when they met. After taking a few glances at his son, he began to criticize the two of them.
What are these two children thinking, that they are not worried at all when they leave their one-year-old daughter alone abroad?
Mom, this is it? Feng Yiping was a little dazed. According to the usual practice, shouldn't he greet me first when we meet? How did it start like this?
Huang Jingping is having a hard time now, being scolded by Mei Qiuping, this is the first time for her, the smile on her face disappeared immediately, "I'm sorry, auntie, I didn't do well, I'll go back right away,"
"Mom, do you want your little granddaughter to be in the capital at this time?" Feng Yiping excused Huang Jingping without hesitation, "What are you doing here at this time? You haven't completely passed SARS yet, Dad, why didn't you stop my mother? "
"I don't have that ability. Your mother is determined to do something, and even nine cows can't be brought back," Feng Zhenchang said. "The situation is much better now. Let her come over and see you with her own eyes, so as not to worry at home. I can't even sleep,"
"Your graduation is such a big event, how can we not come here," Mei Qiuping said.
"So Jingping also thinks the same,"
Mei Qiuping glared at her son, and took the hand of Huang Jingping, who had her head down and her eyes were red, "I'm sorry Jingping, I'm just a quick temper, what I said just now was a bit aggressive, don't take it to heart,"
"It's my fault, Auntie. After attending Yiping's graduation ceremony, I will return to the United States immediately,"
"I've come back from a long way, how can I not see your parents?" Feng Zhenchang said to Mei Qiuping, "Only you love your granddaughter? That's their child, do you still treat it as our condition back then? Put a hundred and two Ten hearts, nothing will happen if you leave for a few days,"
"Jingping, listen to me, wait for Yiping to graduate here and come back to town with us for a few days, your parents will definitely miss you too,"
At such a time, Feng Zhenchang could still figure it out.
That's what men do.
The relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law seems to be inherently unharmonious. If the disturbance is severe, it will not only make the family unsafe, make life difficult, and even kill people—whether it is in the city or in the country, once this woman gets angry, she will die. I feel that I have been wronged greatly, and I will commit suicide if I fail to keep everything.
However, for families with father-in-law and families without father-in-law, the consequences of quarrels between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law are definitely different. Although most of the time he will not participate in quarrels between two women, but at critical moments, It can still function as a fuse, and it can be blown in time before the contradiction intensifies further.
We have to admit that men are sometimes more generous and more optimistic.
"Come to Jingping, see what good things my parents brought us?" Feng Yiping took Huang Jingping to look at the two big bags they brought.
"Don't take it to heart, my mother is such a person, has a quick temper, and sometimes she doesn't draft her words," Feng Yiping comforted her softly, "However, you have to understand that they have different ideas from ours, and we should follow their previous experience. Ask us, and she is really worried about Amanda, afraid that something will happen to her, "
"In the end, it's not your fault, it's not her fault, it's me, it's my fault that I didn't arrange it well, I should tell you earlier, let you fly back before the graduation ceremony, and go back the next day,"
Feng Yiping is also experienced in dealing with such matters. First try to understand the matter, and then take the responsibility on himself and concentrate the conflict on himself. In this way, Mei Qiuping can't bear to blame his son, Huang Jing At most, Ping could blame Feng Yiping a few words, but the conflict between the two of them would not deepen.
"I understand Auntie, I just, I miss you too much, worry about you too much, and don't want to miss such an important moment in your life,"
Mei Qiuping had always been kind to her before, but Huang Jingping couldn't adapt to the harsh words she said to her for the first time today, and she also felt wronged, she was the one who didn't want to leave her daughter the last, okay?
"I understand, it's all my fault, come and see what good things they brought from home all the way,"
Mei Qiuping also looked at Feng Zhenchang angrily at this moment. If his son is not on her side, even you are not on my side?
"Let me tell you, once you level their lives, you don't care about it in the future. Besides, you can't care about it. We can't help him, at least we can't hold him back and cause trouble,"
Feng Zhenchang said in a low voice, "Don't talk about those rich and noble families. Look at the dual-career workers who work in the city. With children, the parents on both sides can't count on them. Many of them hire nanny to take care of them? No, there are also those who are on business trips at the same time. Let the nanny take the child?"
"It's not like you haven't seen the nanny in their family. The level of childcare is higher than yours. There's nothing to worry about,"
"What age is it now, do you still want to learn from those powerful mother-in-laws in the village?"
When Feng Zhenchang said this, Mei Qiuping also felt that she had gone too far just now, but she didn't admit it, "Am I worried about our little granddaughter? Only you can be a good person,"
"You are the only one who loves your granddaughter, are you the only one who loves your son? Look at how you wronged Jingping just now,"
"It was fine at first, look, your indiscriminate words made everyone unhappy,"
Seeing his son and the others approaching, Feng Zhenchang stopped, and Mei Qiuping also changed his face, "Why did you find this right away?"
"Dad, Mom, why did you bring this here?" Feng Yiping walked over with two plastic lunch boxes.
Among the things my parents brought this time, there is a rare wild fruit that he hasn't eaten for many years: transplanted rice fruit, in fact, according to the voice of the family, it is closer to "transplanted rice bubble".
This is a kind of wild fruit that matures before and after transplanting every year. It looks a bit like a mulberry, but it is shorter than it. When it matures, it is always bright red, sweet and sour and juicy. There are some small whiskers on the fruit. Eat it In the mouth, it feels a little prickly.
When I was young, transplanting rice seedlings was a hard job, but it was also a thing that should not be sloppy. Planting rice seedlings for a few hours in the paddy fields that were steamed under the sun and dried up in the sun, this kind of wild fruit was the greatest comfort to them guys.
However, at that time, there would be too many monks and too little porridge, so it would be nice to grab a handful of this kind of fruit.
"Why are there so many? You really are," he was very touched. This is what his parents said. They all remember clearly his hobbies when he was a child.
"We didn't pick it. Wenhua and Wenhui made a special trip to pick it. Otherwise, how could there be so many? You said that you often took the two of them to do such things when you were young, but now there are few children in the village, and few are willing to pick them." Eating these wild fruits is not like when you were young, you couldn't even grab them."
"And the cherries,"
"I know this, it must have been brought to me by my grandfather," Feng Yiping kept changing his mouth, "It's better to eat at home,"
"Be careful when it's delicious," Feng Zhenchang said, "If you eat too much, you won't feel well in your stomach."
"By the way, Wenhua and his brothers, how did you arrange it?"
"When SARS is over, the car we ordered should also be able to pick up the goods, and then let them be the driver, oh, let him hurry up and get the A1 test,"
The two Maybach 62s he ordered, as the name suggests, are 6.2 meters long, and they can only be yellow-carded in the future. They are also passenger cars, and only those with an A1 license can drive them.
"That's not easy. There is a driving school in the town. Besides, the driving skills of the two brothers are really nothing to say,"
"Jingping, we also brought a lot of other dishes." Mei Qiuping took Huang Jingping to sort out the things she brought, and when she got to the kitchen, she began to remedy, "I was in a hurry just now, don't be offended, Amanda, you must have arranged it properly, and I don't blame you,"
"It's okay, Auntie, you're right, I was a little ill-considered, don't worry, I will return to the United States as soon as possible,"
People are like this, one party speaks soft words, and the other party also speaks soft words.
"No, your uncle is right. Your nanny will take good care of Amanda. You should at least go home for a while. Your parents must miss you very much,"
"Also, Jingping, you have worked hard for the past two years,"
"Auntie, what you say is what I should do,"
"Jingping, I'm not an unreasonable person. It stands to reason that we should help take care of the children, but for more than a year, I have been taking care of Amanda alone. You are not in China, but you are alone abroad. I know It was not easy, and we have to thank you!"
"Auntie, I don't think it's hard work. I'm happy to do these things. Also, Yiping often goes to the United States. I'm fine,"
…………
Feng Zhenchang and Feng Yiping did a good job. Mei Qiuping and Huang Jingping, although they were not happy when they first met today, they were as close as ever when preparing dinner in the afternoon—at least It seems so.
It was Feng Yiping who wanted to relax with great difficulty, but in the end, he really only had half a day off.
