The Full-level Father of the Tool Man - Chapter 244
Lin Xi’s home is very small.
It is about 60 square meters, and the living room is full of children’s things. It’s not that she doesn’t want to clean up, but she really doesn’t have time to clean up.
The two children have different schedules.
She didn’t have much time to rest at all.
While the eldest daughter was sleeping, the younger daughter made a fuss about being coaxed.
The younger daughter is sleeping, and she can’t sleep with her. Instead, she stares at the older daughter all the time. How can such a small child be stared at by no one.
At the end of the day, I can rest for less than four or five hours.
And she does everything at home.
Buying food, cooking, washing, mopping the floor, changing diapers for small milk powder, etc., no one came to help her.
It’s not that Lin Xi didn’t seek help from Zheng Qi and her mother-in-law. The former said that she worked hard to make money to support her family, and she was not idle, while the latter said that her grandson couldn’t get away without her.
In fact, Lin Xi didn’t know if Zheng Qi was working hard to make money. She only knew that every time she watched the circle of friends, she saw a small video of Zheng Qi’s colorful life.
There are small videos of playing cards, drinking or having a skewer with friends.
There are small videos of climbing mountains and outings, or traveling to small places around.
And she was stuck at home and couldn’t go anywhere.
Speaking of mother-in-law.
Saying that he is taking care of his granddaughter is actually despising his granddaughter.
Every time we met, I teased the two granddaughters and started talking about the third child.
three children.
How should I support it? How should I bring it?
She doesn’t have a job. Zheng Qi put it nicely, she is struggling for her career, but how can she hand over the farm to others and eat and play by herself?
When they got married, she and Zheng Qi had 40,000 to 50,000 yuan in exchange. He said that he opened a farm and took 30,000 yuan to go out.
Seeing that her savings were getting smaller and smaller, she was really anxious.
In this case, the third child is born, how to raise it? Can you afford it?
“Mom, I’m hungry.” Zheng Jinjin came over, put his hands on his stomach, and hummed, “I’m so hungry, so hungry.”
Lin Xi took a deep breath, suppressed the grief in her heart, and then laughed, “Mom is going to cook now, and Jin Jin can help her mother watch her sister, okay?”
Zheng Jinjin put his hand behind his back, “No, my sister is not good, she robs me of my baby.”
Previously, the two sisters cried because of a doll.
The younger sister occupied the doll, and Zheng Jinjin, who was the elder sister, grabbed it. As a result, both sisters started to make trouble.
Lin Xi sighed silently, and could only use the strap to carry her little daughter. When the kitchen opened the refrigerator, the tears she was holding back finally fell.
The refrigerator was empty, except for two jars of pickles, only two eggs.
I was so busy today that she forgot to buy some food.
Every time I go out, it’s like a war. I have to take both of my daughters with me. When I go out, whether it’s sunny or overcast, she must be sweating, and the two daughters are also affected.
So she decided to go out shopping every three days.
In this way, you don’t have to toss your children, and you don’t have to toss yourself.
Today is the day to go grocery shopping.
But she…forgot.
Lin Xi covered her face and couldn’t stop crying. At first, she was so tired and tired that she felt desperate.
Besides, she felt that she was too irresponsible. Jinjin usually persuaded her to eat, but this was the first time she took the initiative to say that she was hungry. How could she forget to cook or buy vegetables?
“Mom?” Zheng Jinjin didn’t know that her mother was crying. She only saw that her mother was covering her face and was sad. She stepped forward and held her mother’s clothes. “Mom, I like my sister. I look at her.”
She didn’t know how to persuade her, but if she remembered what her mother had just asked her to take care of her sister, maybe she liked her when she became a mother?
With this thought in mind, she reached out to touch her sister’s feet.
Lin Xi quickly touched her face, wanting to tell Jin Jin that it was okay, that it would be alright to not eat today and just eat egg noodles, but before she said anything, there was a knock on her door.
Lin Xi asked Jin Jin to play in the living room, and she walked towards the door.
She couldn’t think of a few people who could come at this time, but she could probably guess who it was.
But when she opened the door, she was stunned, “Dad, is that you?”
Lin Qi entered the door, took off his shoes and said, “Is it not who I am?”
Lin Xi thought it was the eldest sister, but she didn’t say it.
Once he mentioned the eldest sister in front of Dad, Dad would definitely keep talking to her about the eldest sister’s marriage. In fact, she didn’t dare to tell her father that she envied the eldest sister.
Carefree, without the slightest burden, it’s not like she’s about to be overwhelmed by life.
Lin Xi quickly stood up and let Dad come in. She said, “Dad, what are you doing here?”
Lin Qi glanced at her, and he could clearly see Lin Xi’s red eyes, she had just cried, but he didn’t ask this, just pretended he didn’t see it, and just said, “I can’t come if I’m fine?”
Lin Xi sneered.
It’s not that he can’t come, but that every time Dad comes there is something.
Lin Qi looked into the house and saw his granddaughter obediently sitting on the sofa, looking towards them, but ran over without surprise.
Obviously know him, but not close.
like a stranger.
Lin Qi asked, “Have you eaten?”
Lin Xi shook her head, “Have you eaten yet? How about I go down and bring you some dishes?”
It costs money to go out to eat. If Dad didn’t come, she would be really reluctant.
Lin Qi shook his head and lifted the things in his hand, “I brought something to eat, and it happened to be eaten in one piece.”
Lin Xi discovered this time that Dad was carrying two large lunch boxes.
Suddenly, she couldn’t help but think, in memory, every time Dad came to her house, he didn’t seem to be carrying anything, right?
It’s not that I didn’t expect that one time my dad would come to her house with something in his hand.
It’s not about being petty or cheap.
It’s where Dad works. He can get a lot of gifts and even genuine clothes, which are all given by the businessmen. Go, put them in a very important position, and think about them all the time.
So, she thought at the time, if she moved out by herself, would Dad give her a share too.
Can be married for four years, not once.
This time, it was the first time Dad came to the door with something.
I couldn’t help but feel a little happy, and hurriedly let Dad put it on the table, and then began to greet him in a hurry.
Lin Qi stopped her, not to keep her busy, but to hug Meimei behind her.
Zheng Meimei didn’t know how to speak. When he hugged him, he stared at him with big eyes. He didn’t laugh or cry, he just looked at him like that.
At this time, Zheng Jinjin ran over. She stood beside Lin Qi and didn’t come over. She said crisply, “Grandpa, hug me, don’t hurt my sister.”
In Zheng Jinjin’s memory, she didn’t have much memory of her grandfather. She only knew that her grandfather came rarely, but once when she was holding her sister, she made her cry.
Lin Qi nodded heavily, “Okay, grandpa be careful this time.”
He knew why Jin Jin said that. He was an old smoker who was addicted to cigarettes. He had to get a pack a day.
For a while, when the original body was holding Meimei, he couldn’t help but want to smoke, and he did not pay attention, and burned it directly on Meimei’s forehead.
He stretched out his hand and gently touched Meimei’s forehead.
If you look closely, you can see that there is a very light smoke scar mark on it.
“Ah, bah.” Meimei turned her head, as if she remembered that this was the bad guy in front of her, and stuck out her tongue in disgust.
When Jin Jin saw it, he hurriedly reached out to block it, for fear that his grandfather would hit his sister.
Lin Qi smiled helplessly, “It’s okay, Meimei is playing with me.”
Jin Jin was a little scared. She didn’t see her grandfather bullying her sister until her mother called for dinner, and she kept smiling, so she wasn’t so nervous.
When my mother brought it to the table, the aroma was tangy, only to find that the table was full of food that I liked, and I almost couldn’t hold back my drooling.
When the delicious food was in her mouth, she didn’t even bother to see her sister.
It’s definitely not that it’s important that my sister doesn’t have good food, but that my mother looks at it and definitely won’t hurt my sister, so she only pays attention to eating.
That’s right, that’s it!
When Jin Jin was eating, Lin Xi had just made milk powder for Mei Mei. She stretched out her hand and said, “Dad, I’ll breastfeed Mei Mei, so you can eat first.”
Lin Qi shook his head, instead of handing Meimei over, he stretched out his hand, “I’m not too hungry now, you eat first, I’ll feed her.”
Lin Xi was not sure if her father could do it, but she has always been a very obedient daughter.
After a while, looking at Dad’s familiar movements, he couldn’t help but wonder, “I didn’t expect you to change.”
Lin Qi smiled and told her to eat quickly.
In fact, where would the original one be.
When Lin Xia and Lin Xi were young, he was almost a shopkeeper, and he almost didn’t care about the family affairs, leaving it to his wife to do everything.
After Lin Xi gave birth to another child, he also came over to have a look. He didn’t kiss his two granddaughters at all.
He would, but he was trained in a small world in front of him.
After breastfeeding and coaxing Mei Mei to sleep, Lin Qi picked up the chopsticks and started eating. The food was a little cold. Lin Xi wanted to warm it up, but he didn’t let it go, but said, “Let’s talk.”
Lin Xi’s heart was tight. In fact, she was quite afraid to chat with her father.
Talking is nothing more than two things.
One is to tell her how ignorant and disobedient the eldest sister is, and let her be a good sister to persuade her.
For this, she said yes, but she never mentioned it every time she met her sister, and it was the first time she disobeyed her father’s request.
She felt that if marriage was her current life, it would be better not to force her sister to get married. A person’s life is much more comfortable than a family.
Another is to keep telling her that she has to listen to her parents-in-law, don’t make them unhappy with her petty temper, and be considerate of Zheng Qi, who is also very hard to start a career abroad.
It is said that she enjoys happiness. No woman does not go to work after giving birth to a child. She is relaxed and does not need to work at home. She must be grateful.
Actually several times.
She wanted to say that if someone came to share the burden for her, she would rather go to work.
Not long after she graduated, she found the company and was called back by her father for a blind date. She got married and had children not long after she graduated. She studied at school for four years, but the graduation certificate she got was useless at all.
wrong.
Replacement is useful.
During the blind date, the matchmaker would say which university she graduated from, she is a top student, and the children born in the future will definitely be smart.
In exchange for laughing and joking, saying that this is a plus.
Not to mention how I felt at the time, I feel very sad every time I think about it now.
But these, she never told anyone, all buried in her heart and endured by herself.
Lin Xi couldn’t help being a little distracted, she thought, no matter what Dad said later, she had to respond properly, and she must not make Dad angry.
But I didn’t want to, the first sentence Dad said was like this.
“I see that you can’t be too busy at home alone. Anyway, Zheng Qi is not at home. Why don’t you move back and live. I can take care of the children for you after work.”
“Ah?” Lin Xi was stunned, a little confused.
Lin Qi repeated again, “I said you can move back and live for a while, I got off work early, I came back to mention you and look after the children, you can rest well, look at you, you are much thinner than before, black The eye circles are so heavy, did you not sleep well?”
“…” Lin Xi opened her mouth, but said nothing.
Because she knew that once she opened her mouth, she couldn’t help crying. The original feeling of being cared for would make you want to cry.
Lin Qi seemed a little uncomfortable, coughed twice and said, “Of course, it’s mainly because I’m bored at home alone. If you guys pass, someone can talk to me at home at night.”
Lin Xi pursed her lips, but still didn’t speak.
Lin Qi tapped on the table lightly, “What about you, can you come back? I’ve packed your room for you, and you can stay when you go back. Of course, if you don’t want to go back, forget it.”
“Go back! I’ll go back!” Lin Xi said immediately, with just four words, but with an obvious cry.
It turned out that Dad had cleaned up her room. She always thought that after she got married, there would be no place for her at home.
And Lin Qi.
At this time, I thought to myself that I would have to find a temporary housekeeper later.
Just after returning, he went out without even entering the room, and did not clean up Lin Xi’s room at all.
After Lin Xi got married, the original body would not lose her bedroom, but it had been left unused for a long time, and some clutter would inevitably be piled up in it for a long time, and now it is impossible to live in.
Lin Qi said: “Okay, then you clean up first. I’ll pick you up after get off work tomorrow. Remember to wait for me at home.”
Lin Xi nodded again and again.
After staying for a while, Lin Qi said that it was early and left.
As soon as the people left, the small living room was filled with excited laughter, which was particularly cheerful.
Zheng Jinjin tilted his head, with a very puzzled face: “Mom, what are you laughing at?”
Lin Xi stretched out her hands to hold her face, and gave her a sip on her forehead, “Tomorrow we’re going to live at Grandpa’s house.”
Zheng Jinjin frowned.
The smile on Lin Xi’s mouth never faded, “Why, are you unhappy?”
Zheng Jinjin shook his head and said naively, “Although Jinjin doesn’t like Grandpa too much, and Grandpa doesn’t like Jinjin either, but Mommy will be happy when Jinjin is happy.”
The smile on Lin Xi’s face subsided slightly, and she said softly, “It’s okay, if you get along with your grandfather more, he will like you.”
Should be.
In fact, she didn’t know either.
Not to mention Jinjin, sometimes she is not sure whether Dad likes her daughter or not.
Maybe like it.
Otherwise, why would you propose to let her go back to live?
After observing that she was thin and tired, would she say to watch the child for her after get off work and let her rest more?
This should be a concern, right?
Lin Xi was actually not sure, but she hoped so.
In this regard, after grooming her two daughters, she called her sister to tell her the good news.
After Lin Xia heard it on the phone, her first reaction was that she didn’t believe it.
She didn’t think Dad would care about the two sisters that much.
Just listening to Lin Xi’s excited tone on the other end of the phone, she didn’t say anything depressing, but said, “I’ll go see you when I have a rest.”
The two sisters chatted a few more words before hanging up.
Lin Xia is now in the company.
Recently, there is an urgent publication of a set, and she has to stay and work overtime to catch up with the progress.
Holding the mouse and casually clicking on the screen, I lost my previous concentration and felt a little uneasy.
Compared with Lin Xi, she really saw this home early.
It feels weird, it feels weird.
Dad’s thoughts were all on grandma and three aunts, and mother’s thoughts were on how to give birth to a son.
As for her and Lin Xi, in this house it is equivalent to superfluous.
In fact, to be honest, her parents did not treat her harshly. From childhood to adulthood, she had to eat and wear, and she went to school in exchange, and even offered her to go to university all the way.
When she graduated, she did not force her to pay her salary and let her bear the family expenses.
To put it nicely, this is such a good family, the parents follow along, without any burden.
But from her point of view, it felt like she was an outsider, an unimportant person, and even a transparent person to her family.
Sometimes, she really wanted her father to make demands on her.
But over the years, Dad has only asked her one thing, and that is to get married and have children as soon as possible.
But she… can’t do it.
She couldn’t be like Lin Xi, listening to her family go on blind dates, get married, and have children.
Especially seeing Lin Xi, who converted the days that were good enough to live in a mess.
This is just spoiling myself…
When Lin Xi wanted to resign from a big company and return to her hometown, she persuaded her.
When Lin Xi was about to get married before she was twenty-two, she also persuaded her.
When Zheng Qi had no sense of responsibility and just went outside to play, and her in-laws hated Lin Xi for not having a son, she persuaded again, why should such a widowed marriage be maintained?
Available every time.
The first thing Lin Xi thought about was not herself.
Just thinking about not letting Dad down.
Now I can’t get a divorce for the sake of looking at the children.
Sometimes when Lin Xia heard this, she really laughed.
what is this? Sacrifice yourself for the sake of others? You know how to think for others and not think for yourself?
Can be advised again.
Lin Xihuan made life a mess.
And no matter how angry she is, she also feels distressed when she sees her sister like this.
Only support from behind.
This time, Dad suddenly asked Lin Xi to go back to live. Her first reaction was that Dad was making up his mind.
Just because Lin Xi was so happy, she didn’t pour cold water.
Lin Xia looked at the calendar on the table, thinking about going to take a look when she was resting, to see what Dad was thinking, and to protect Lin Xi as much as possible.
Lin Xi, this stupid little sister, can no longer bear the pressure and can’t take the blow.
Otherwise it will collapse sooner or later.
