“Our son is hungry; take him home and feed him. He normally doesn’t cry – he’s a good boy.”
“I don’t know how to feed a child!”
“I’ve prepared food for our son, it’s all in the refrigerator, just take it out and thaw it, cook it and he’ll eat it by himself.”
“I can’t cook either. You need to come home quickly. It’s been a day and night, and we haven’t seen you. Forget the child, I’m starving too.”
“Then you can cook for yourself!”
“How can I cook and take care of the child at the same time? Do I have three heads and six hands? I’ve missed a whole day of work and delayed so much work, do you understand?”
“I usually take care of the child while cooking for you and him. It’s not hard, try doing it at home. An is really obedient, he won’t create any trouble.”
“You’re a woman, of course, you can cook and take care of the child, but I am a man, I can’t do this! You need to come home immediately!”
“Grandma is still in a coma, I can’t leave. I need to stay and take care of her with my cousin. Once she wakes up, I’ll come home.”
“Isn’t she out of danger now? Why are you still here? Your cousin can look after her. Staying here just makes things worse. It’s better if you cook for me and our son at home. I have to work tomorrow, and I’m the one who’s supporting this family. I can’t keep taking leave, or we’ll end up with nothing to eat!”
“But…”
“Don’t ‘but’ me. Don’t force me to lose my temper in front of your cousin. I’ve been holding back for your sake! An keeps crying. If you don’t come home tonight, I won’t be able to sleep. You know I can’t sleep with even the slightest noise.”
Qiao Yin, who was inside the room, couldn’t stand to listen any more.
Her brother-in-law seemed to have no sympathy for her cousin at all.
It turned out her cousin’s life wasn’t as good as she had let on. She just tended to only share the good news and hide her troubles.
She opened the door and said softly, “Cousin, go home with your husband. You can come back tomorrow. You need to rest too. You’ve been tired for a whole day and night.”
Ye Wan looked a bit embarrassed, “I hate to trouble you, Yinyin, but I’m really stuck here…”
“It’s okay, cousin. We sisters don’t need to be so courteous.”
As Qiao Yin spoke, she turned to Fang Yongquan, “Brother-in-law, don’t blame my cousin. She’s just being dutiful, and she’s worried about me. Please be more understanding, okay?”
“Hmmm, I understand. Since that’s the case, we’ll leave now. She can come back tomorrow to perform her filial duty.”
After Fang Yongquan finished speaking, he pulled Ye Wan to leave.
Watching them leave, Qiao Yin sighed.
Ever since her cousin got pregnant, she quit her job to become a full-time housewife. Even after her child turned two, she was not able to get back to work. She was busy at home all the time, taking care of her husband and child, without any time for socializing.
She herself had almost followed the same path as her cousin.
If it weren’t for Lan Yuyi, she would probably end up like her cousin: no job, no income, and after giving birth, completely losing her independence and becoming dependent on a man.
Lan Yuyi’s pregnancy was a wake-up call for her.
She would never give up her job and life for a man again.
Qiao Yin took a deep breath, was about to close the door, when she saw the man she resented appearing in the hallway.
Her face turned cold quickly.
Then, she saw Old Madam Lu.
Her face softened. She hurried down a few steps and helped her, “Grandma, why did you come again? Grandma is fine now, don’t worry too much. You should take care of your health and stop running around.”
Old Madam sighed, “Your grandmother saved my life. I feel guilty for not being able to take care of her this time. I came to see her again and also bought some food for you..”
