Chapter 97: Chapter 97 Pointing at the Mulberry Tree to Curse the Locust Tree_1
As soon as little Zhang Yunxuan saw his aunt, he stated his great affection, “Auntie, Auntie, I told my dad, we need candy floss, candy floss.”
Seeing both parents looking over, Meng Yunhan embarrassedly smiled, “As long as our Little Zhuzi behaves, auntie will make it for you.”
“Let’s eat.” Mother’s gentle cough broke their conversation.
Of course, in the afternoon, Meng Yunhan did make candy floss, which greatly moved her mother-in-law, because she used a lot of sugar. But when she tasted the candy floss her daughter-in-law made, it was indeed delicious.
“Mom, should I pack some to take to my two sister-in-laws’ homes?” Meng Yunhan was seeking her mother-in-law’s opinion, not wanting to bear the label of being greedy.
“No, keep it in the house.” Mother remembered the last time her daughter-in-law made snacks. After she delivered some to her two daughters-in-law, as soon as she left, she heard them make indirect disparaging remarks. You can’t imagine how choked up she felt. If it wasn’t for keeping face for her two sons, she would have started an argument right there.
“We’ll share them when the kids come to visit.” Mother decided not to take them to their houses anymore to avoid further trouble.
Meng Yunhan had no idea what had happened, which made her mother-in-law not wish to send any to her two sisters-in-law anymore.
Little Xiaoxuan, happily eating the candy floss. Meng Yunhan, fearing he might get a heatiness, only allowed him two more pieces, and then sealed the rest properly.
She also told him that when he was leaving later, she would give him a small bag to take back.
When Meng Yunhan got bored, she would help little Xiaoxuan to recognize characters. Hence, under the encouragement of Meng Yunhan and the temptation of delicious food, Xiaoxuan remembered two poems and even learned to sing a nursery rhyme within a month. He can now recognize dozens of simple characters.
Meng Yunhan was washing clothes at home when Yun Men and Zhang Jiang came to visit.
“Mum, Dad, are they my two little brothers?” Zhang Yunxuan came out of the house, curious because ever since he arrived, Meng Yunhan had been brainwashing him to assume the responsibility of looking after his little brothers.
Yun Men laughed and said, “They really are twins. If it weren’t for third sister-in-law’s suggestion, we wouldn’t have gone for a checkup.” Despite spending some money, it paled in comparison to the joy of expecting twins.
Zhang Jiang also felt very proud. Twins, how could he not be happy?
Last year, their sisters-in-law were still mocking them saying they were destined to only have one child. Now, unexpectedly, they are expecting twins. They couldn’t be happier.
“Congratulation! You two.”
“Thank you!” Yun Men and Zhang Jiang replied in unison.
Meng Yunhan quickly changed the topic, “Xiao Men, are you feeling any different being pregnant with twins compared to when you were pregnant with Xiaoxuan?”
Yun Men was asked by Meng Yunhan, thought for a bit, “It feels the same!”
“But you are carrying twins now, how can it be the same? Now you are eating for one, but nurturing three.” Content orıginally comes from 𝙣𝙤𝙫𝙚𝙡~𝙛𝙞𝙧𝙚~𝙣𝙚𝙩
Zhang Jiang also nodded in agreement, “Yes, third sister-in-law is correct. Now that you’re having twins, be sure to eat more.”
“But I really don’t feel…”
Meng Yunhan interrupted Yun Men, “That’s because the children in your belly are still small, and their nutritional needs aren’t high. As they gradually grow, you will need to supplement more nutrition so that when the children are born, they won’t be too skinny.”
This doctor-like talk left Zhang Jiang and Yun Men slightly puzzled.
“Third sister-in-law, you’ve made my head spin.”
