Xue's father couldn't help but interject: "He is a boy, so his life will inevitably be rough. Not to mention A Heng, Lingling's ability to live alone is also very poor."
Xue Zhilan didn't quite believe it and whispered: "She is already married, so she should learn something. A Heng really has nothing to offer. The apartment has no other functions except for bathing and sleeping."
Dad Xue smiled bitterly: "Ling Ling hardly has to do housework in her husband's house, and she doesn't do it well. If she were left to live alone, she would probably be about the same as A Heng."
"Haha!" Xue Zhilan shook his head: "Because we neglected discipline and did not let them exercise, the children's living abilities are not very good."
Cheng Tianyuan laughed softly and said: "Then we will let our children help with housework more often, so as not to imitate their mothers in terms of living ability."
Everyone laughed.
Xue's mother looked at Xue Heng and said warmly: "A Heng, when you are dating someone in the future, remember to ask if they can cook and take care of housework. If they can't cook and take care of housework like you, then you should think again. Don't be a young couple who knows everything.
No, what should I do?"
Everyone laughed again.
Xue Heng explained with slight embarrassment: "I remember it, and I will definitely ask in the future."
After a while, the doctor came to change Xue's father's dressing.
Xue Zhilan helped on the side, applying medicine to Father Xue himself and bandaging it skillfully.
The doctor smiled and said: "Senior Xue, our office is currently engaged in a small scientific research project. I wonder if I could delay you for half an hour and give us some valuable advice?"
"Of course." Xue Zhilan smiled: "There is nothing better than for peers to consult with each other and make progress together."
So, he followed the doctor out of the ward.
San Bo boiled the medicine and brought it over and put it aside to dry.
"Where's Lingling? Why didn't you see her?"
Cheng Tianyuan explained: "Uncle San, she and Uncle Zheng went to pick up the car and should be back soon."
Sanbo couldn't help but remind her: "Don't let her run around all day. Her current physical condition does not allow her to bump around."
Dad Xue smiled bitterly: "She can't sit still. When she comes back from getting the car, she will be detained here."
Sanbo smiled and said: "When she comes, let her drink more water. The weather is hot, so you have to add some water, otherwise you are afraid that the amniotic fluid will be low. This is what the obstetrics and gynecology doctor told you. By the way, Ayuan, you are with me
I'll go down and tell the doctor about Lingling's situation. The doctor will open a file for her. I'll go there to check the fetal heart rate when I have time in the afternoon."
"Okay." Cheng Tianyuan nodded and followed San Bo downstairs.
Xue Heng sat aside and took out a knife to peel the apple.
"Auntie, I heard that the in-laws from Rongcheng will be here tomorrow, right?"
"Yes!" Xue's mother smiled and said: "They are coming to see your uncle, and they are also coming to help take care of Ling Ling during confinement. And A Fang, A Yuan's sister, is coming here to learn how to be a cake maker.
"
"Training to make cakes and bread?" Xue Heng asked: "I seemed to have heard such an advertisement last time, but I forgot where it was."
Dad Xue whispered: "I signed up for her. I heard that there are not many people who want to learn, but the master came back from studying in a Western country. He made bread and put it there for publicity. It smelled very fragrant."
Xue Heng explained: "The bread has milk, cheese and the like, and is baked, so it is extra fragrant. When I was studying abroad, I also liked bread very much."
Mother Xue thought for a while and said: "In the city center, a store opened a while ago, and many people said it was delicious. Every evening, you can occasionally see people queuing up there."
"It's good to learn this." Xue Heng said, "It's a good thing for girls to learn some crafts and cooking skills."
Xue's father smiled and explained: "The child is now studying water conservancy engineering in the provincial capital. I thought she was a girl who loves science and would not like to mess with these things. Unexpectedly, she said she wanted to study and asked me to help her sign up."
"Water conservancy engineering?" Xue Heng nodded: "There are very few majors like this! The employment should be pretty good."
Xue’s mother asked out of curiosity: “Where can I get a job? In the water or electricity department? It’s not very suitable for girls, is it?”
"No." Xue Heng replied: "There are also many clerical jobs in the electric power department, and those are all held by girls - which is pretty good. Those jobs are very easy and the working hours are generous, which is pretty good."
Xue's father thought for a while and said: "She has been studying for a year now. When she graduates, we will see if she can find a job in the Imperial Electric Power Department. Talents in this field are very scarce now, so it shouldn't be difficult to find a job.
"
"It shouldn't be difficult." Xue Heng continued to peel the apple.
Xue's mother laughed and said: "When I saw her during the Chinese New Year, she really changed into a woman. It's so different from the chubby photos before."
"Can she be older?" Father Xue explained: "She used to be a chubby girl from the countryside, honest and ignorant of worldly affairs. Now she is a student studying in a provincial capital. She is older, taller and thinner, her skin is whiter, her clothes are
It’s also fashionable.”
"Yes." Mother Xue said, "It's a world of difference."
Xue Heng washed the apple, cut it, and handed it to Xue's mother.
"Uncle, let me feed you a few bites of apples."
Father Xue shook his head: "No, the medicine is almost gone. I will take the medicine soon."
Mother Xue looked at the "dog-gnawed" surface of the apple, laughed, and ate it little by little without paying attention.
At this time, Cheng Tianyuan and San Bo came back.
Sanbo wiped his sweat and sat under the fan.
Xue Heng handed him a piece of apple, and then handed another piece to Cheng Tianyuan.
The third uncle laughed and teased: "What kind of fruit knife is this made of? Could it be a saw?"
Everyone laughed.
Cheng Tianyuan didn't care at all, washed his hands, picked it up and ate it.
After eating, he quickly fed his father-in-law the medicine.
Xue Sanbo explained: "I have changed the prescription today. I will sleep less and feel better in the future."
Dad Xue laughed and said: "I thought I had to sleep all day again! If I don't sleep, I will feel bored. I will feel bored lying here."
"Can you play chess?" Xue Heng asked, "Is it possible that my uncle can move his hands a little bit?"
Xue Sanbo explained: "I can sit up without lying down. The wound on his neck has healed a lot. Now I have to wait for the shoulder bone to heal. His waist is fine. Just help him sit up."
Cheng Tianyuan had strong hands and hugged his father-in-law, then placed a quilt and pillow behind him.
"Oh..." Father Xue couldn't help but feel dizzy and smiled bitterly: "After lying down for two or three days, I suddenly couldn't get used to it."
Cheng Tianyuan asked worriedly: "Dad, do you want to lean on it half way first?"
Father Xue nodded and whispered: "Then don't sit down yet."
"No." Xue Heng reminded: "Having it half supported by the bones of the shoulder would be a kind of harm."
Uncle San said warmly: "Sit for a while, the heart's blood transfusion will be normal, and you won't feel faint. So people can't lie down or sit all the time. This is the reason."
When Xue's mother saw that her husband looked better and could sit up straight, she was secretly excited and her eyes turned red secretly.
