Chapter 656 Parents are coming
"Sometimes, I get really angry too."
Hearing his words, Lin Yuyao also had some complaints about her sister-in-law.
Lin Yuyao said, "Brother, nobody's perfect. Even though your wife gets bullied by her own family, she won't have any conflicts with you or our parents. If you had a strong-willed wife who wouldn't suffer any losses, she wouldn't be at a disadvantage anywhere. You're out there working hard, and she's at home taking care of the kids with our parents. You might not even have a peaceful life."
Lin Gang thought about it and agreed.
Their company does have people like that.
When they go out to drive, they can be gone for half a month or even longer.
If you're away from home for too long, your wife will start to complain.
One minute they're scolding him for never being home, the next they're scolding him for being useless and not earning any money, and then they're saying he's always arguing and fighting with his parents at home, and they drag him out to reason with them.
Then there are men who work themselves to the bone driving sports cars, and still have to endure being caught in the middle; such people really do exist.
There are gains and losses. At least his wife's personality means she won't complain about him or argue with his parents, which is good.
"I haven't heard my sister-in-law's parents fight with our parents," Lin Yuyao said.
Lin Gang looked down at her stomach and said, "How could they tell you? Now when they call me, they keep telling me not to let you worry about these troublesome things. There are even more infuriating things that I haven't told you."
Lin Yuyao: "What's up?"
Lin Gang: "..." He shouldn't have said that.
"Brother, if you only say half of what you mean, how am I supposed to sleep tonight? It's bad for my health if I don't sleep well."
"Sigh! You know, even though your sister-in-law's parents are shameless, our parents aren't pushovers either. We can't just give them money because they make a fuss."
"Yeah, that's right."
"They couldn't get anything out of it, so they went so far as to steal your nephew."
Lin Yuyao was so excited, "What? My nephew has been found?"
Seeing her agitated state, Lin Gang understood why his parents had told him not to tell her.
"Don't worry, it's alright, the child has been found."
Lin Yuyao breathed a sigh of relief: "Is the child alright?"
"It's nothing, I was just a little frightened."
Lin Yuyao frowned and said, "He was born prematurely and is in poor health. If he gets frightened, he might become ill."
Lin Gang thought to himself, "That's right."
The child was frightened and fell ill. When they found him, he had a frighteningly high fever and had to stay in the hospital for half a month to recover.
“That family is shameless. They even dare to steal their own children. We can’t leave them in our hometown no matter what.”
Lin Yuyao: "Did Father and Mother agree?"
"Originally, my parents were reluctant to leave their hometown, but Yan Yan's situation scared them, and now they have agreed to come."
"That's great! When are they coming?"
"We'll find a place now, and once it's settled, we'll have them come over. This year, our whole family won't go back home for the Spring Festival; we won't be caught in the Spring Festival travel rush. We'll all spend it in the southern part of the city."
Lin Yuyao laughed and said, "Great! We were just planning to stay in Nancheng too."
Because her due date is next month, she will probably just finish her postpartum confinement period around the Lunar New Year.
It's impossible to travel that far back to my hometown with a two-month-old baby.
So Grandpa decided that the whole family would stay in Nancheng for the New Year this year.
The housing issue was easily resolved. Lin Yuyao spoke with the elderly women from the neighborhood committee downstairs, and soon found a three-bedroom apartment.
The whole family is coming over. Fu Huaiyi's old small house definitely wouldn't be big enough for them. They'll need at least a two-bedroom apartment.
It would be ideal to rent a three-bedroom apartment, since Lin Ping would be on holiday for the Chinese New Year.
Lin Yuyao contacted Lin Gang that same day to come and see the house.
"The plumbing and electricity are all set up in this house, it's just missing some furniture. Let's go buy two beds, a bigger dining table, a coffee table, a sofa, and a TV. We'll also get the pots and pans ready."
He doesn't have any requirements for the house; as long as it's livable, it's fine.
"Okay, I'll be free tomorrow, I'll go to the furniture market and take a look."
"Okay, we don't need to buy anything too fancy. We'll have to move after we buy a house."
"I see."
Actually, she was overthinking it. Lin Gang was just like his parents, the kind of person who was simple and hardworking, so he couldn't possibly buy anything too fancy.
Lin Yuyao was very happy to tell Fu Huaiyi that his parents were coming.
Fu Huaiyi said, "We'll have someone to take care of our children in the future."
Lin Yuyao: “…”
"Dream on! We agreed that I would be responsible for giving birth, and you would be responsible for raising the children."
"Oh dear, I can manage one child, but how can I manage two? My parents would never help us take care of them. They've never even taken care of me and my sister. At most, they'll pay for a nanny."
Their son and daughter couldn't help with the business, so the two of them had to shoulder the burden themselves; they were very busy people.
Lin Yuyao muttered a few words and went into the study to call Ye Lian.
It took about twenty minutes to connect.
"Yuyao, why are you calling us so late?"
"Mother, I heard from my elder brother that you're planning to come over?"
"Yes, we are planning to go there. I just talked to your older brother a couple of days ago. If he can find a place, we'll go there. If he can't, then we'll forget about it."
"It's already been found."
Ye Lian: "So fast?"
"Yes, I found a three-bedroom apartment in our neighborhood, the one next to mine."
"What a coincidence! That's great. Your dad, your sister-in-law, and I will come and bother you later. Don't be disgusted by us."
Lin Yuyao: "Mother, look at what you're saying. I'm overjoyed that you can come. How could I possibly look down on you? But you two, you said you'd come after my nephew started school, but now you're suddenly saying you're coming. Are you hiding something from me?"
"Huh? Hey, what did you say? The signal was bad just now, I didn't hear you."
Lin Yuyao: “…”
Well, watch you pretend.
Forget it, why bother talking about these things? It's coming anyway.
"Are your sister-in-law and Yan Yan alright?"
"Great, of course it's great, you can eat and drink it."
Well, it seems they really aren't planning to say anything more.
"How are you? It must be tough carrying twins."
"It's alright, I'm used to it."
“You need to be more careful. Your apartment is on the fifth floor. I heard from your older brother that you are still working and you have to climb five floors to get to work every day. It’s scary to hear that.”
Lin Yuyao smiled and said, "Actually, it's alright. My husband helps me up and down the stairs every day."
"So, Xiao Fu isn't busy with work anymore?"
"It's okay now, but I heard it will be busy again after the New Year."
"That's good, you'll be out of confinement by the time the New Year is over."
After chatting for a while, Ye Lian brought up Lu Jiangting again.
"Lu Jiangting and his family are back, and they're holding a funeral these days."
"Ah."
"I took a look from afar, and I noticed that Lu Jiangting had become so thin."
Lin Yuyao could see him every few days since they lived in the same area.
She did look a bit haggard and thinner, but she wasn't as visually striking as Ye Lian and the others.
Especially the villagers, after Lu Jiangting took leave to come back for his wedding, he never came back again.
Seeing it suddenly really gave me quite a fright.
"She's so skinny she's practically unrecognizable, her eyes are dark and bulging, and her eye sockets are sunken; it's really frightening. Tsk tsk..."
