Chapter 1550 Thanks
Time flies, and Fu Yancheng's ten-day vacation is soon over: "Wife, while I'm away, you can't just pretend to comply. Getting well is the top priority."
Chu Xue cupped his face in her hands, her face full of smiles: "You're so considerate of me, so of course I have to take care of myself too. Don't worry."
He secretly kissed his wife on the forehead and said, "Then I'm off."
After arriving in the courtyard, he said, "Aunt Wei, thank you for taking care of these mother and children."
Aunt Wei smiled and said, "Of course, don't worry, I'll take good care of them."
Just then, Wei Wenbin, who was doing his homework in the next room, ran out and said, "Uncle Fu, I can help too, don't worry."
There are only four or five days left until the Chinese New Year. This year, they definitely won't be able to go back to the city for the New Year. His mother-in-law had mentioned this before, so a few days ago, Fu Yancheng took advantage of being at home to go to the village and exchange a lot of New Year's goods with people.
To their surprise, the day before the Lunar New Year, Xiao's father brought Chunxiao to the family compound: "Dad, what brings you here?"
It happened to be snowing lightly today. Xiao's father didn't go inside, but brushed the snowflakes off his clothes outside: "I came to see you and the children. Your grandfather had someone send some meat to the city and told me to make sure to send some over to you."
The village oil mill also produced some oil, and the village chief had some sent over as a thank-you gift to Yancheng. Without his help, they probably would have taken many more detours.
After brushing the snow off herself, Chunxiao went inside and said excitedly, "Second Sister, Mom told me to stay and take care of you."
Chu Xue's smile vanished instantly, and she repeated her previous refusal to Xiao's mother: "It's the Lunar New Year, and Mom can't manage all the work by herself. Dad doesn't have a holiday either. You should stay home and help Mom out. After all, your younger brother can't be left alone either."
But what he was really thinking was: No way, if I have to serve Aunt Wei, it won't be enough, I'm afraid I'll have to add another one.
Chunxiao wanted to argue, but she knew without a doubt that her second sister didn't want her to stay, and no amount of persuasion would change anything. Because of the snow, Xiao's father didn't stay long either. He left his things behind, looked at the triplets through the glass, and then prepared to catch his train back.
Fu Yancheng had sent New Year's gifts a few days ago, but since Xiao's father had come, Chuxue couldn't let him leave empty-handed.
Using a cabinet as cover, he packed two cartons of cigarettes and some candy from the south inside, then tied them up tightly: "Chunxiao, take this with you; you'll need it for the New Year."
Chunxiao wanted to try again, but Chuxue pretended not to see it: "It's snowing, so I won't keep you any longer. If it gets any later, you'll have to take the afternoon bus back to the city, and it won't be safe on the road then."
After drinking the brown sugar water that Aunt Wei had poured for him, Xiao's father felt quite warm. Fearing that the heavy snow would delay their return journey, he stood outside the window and said to Chu Xue, "We're leaving now. Take good care of yourself. When you're ready to move, have Yan Cheng send a message, and I'll come pick you up."
Chu Xue stood by the window watching them leave the hospital. Aunt Wei stood at the gate watching them walk away before going inside: "Their grandfather really put his heart into it. He used IV bottles to store all the oil, a whole ten bottles. I saw that it was all sesame oil, and the color was so beautiful. He even brought a small bowl of soft sesame residue. How do you want to eat it?"
Chu Xue thought of how her family used to stir-fry pickled cabbage with sesame seeds and mix it with noodles, and also made pancakes with sesame seeds. Her mouth watered instantly: "Stir-fry vegetables with noodles, that's so soft."
She's still in her postpartum period, so noodles are the best food for her right now.
Aunt Wei glanced at her expression and said, "Don't worry, I sent quite a lot. I'll save some for you. I'll make you some pancakes after you finish your confinement period."
Chu Xue was delighted: "Auntie really understands me."
