"I knew it. If there's nothing wrong with the talisman, there must be something wrong with the body."

"I asked several aunts yesterday, and they all said that children are like this. Some would just burst into tears and cry for a while, and they said it would be fine after a while. This is the child I gave birth to at great pains..."

As Xu Jiating spoke, her eyes turned red.

Huang Shaowei hurried over and patted her on the back.

Su Chen also comforted: "Aunt is also unsure of the child's condition. Stop crying. Didn't you say you were going to the city? If the child has any problems in the future, go home. If it really doesn't work, the hospital experts have rich experience."

Xu Jiating slowed down and sniffed.

"Brother-in-law, please help me rent a house in the city."

Xu Jiatao's face immediately turned cold: "A Ting!"

Xu Dasheng was also dissatisfied: "Your brother-in-law is busy enough, don't bother him."

Zhang Ju and Du Jie also nodded in succession.

"That's it."

Su Chen waved his hands quickly: "It's not a big deal, it's not a big deal, it's just something I said."

Xu Jiating raised her eyebrows proudly and looked around.

"Did you hear that?"

"Brother-in-law said it was just a casual remark, no trouble at all."

She put her hands on her hips and said, "Luckily I didn't listen to you. If I had sent Wei and my brother to the city all day to rent a house, not only would we have spent a lot of money, but we probably wouldn't have been able to find a suitable one. I can endure hardship, but my child can't suffer with me."

"Besides, it's not like I don't pay the rent, right brother-in-law?"

Su Chen smiled and nodded: "Yes, it's not easy to rent a house in the city now, and you are not familiar with the city..."

He looked at Xu Dasheng and Zhang Ju who were avoiding his gaze, feeling helpless.

"Mom and Dad, even though Ah Hua is gone, I am still your son-in-law."

"We are all family. If there is anything, just give me an order."

Xu Dasheng laughed dryly and nodded: "Hey, hey~"

Seeing the atmosphere grow tense, Du Jie quickly asked with a smile, "Ah Chen, what have you been busy with lately? Don't stand, sit down first."

She pulled a chair over for Su Chen to sit down, and then glared at Xu Jiatao in pretended anger.

"Why are you standing there? Take out the oranges."

"Oh oh oh."

Xu Jiatao hurriedly took out a basket of oranges and asked Su Chen to peel them and eat them. Du Jie then went back to add firewood.

Su Chen chatted with them about the things in the Magic City. He didn't talk about the exaggerated things, but only talked about simple things. After the atmosphere became lively again, he discussed with them the matter of visiting Ahua's grave.

Xu Dasheng bought an almanac before the New Year. A few days ago, he spent most of the day studying it with Xu Jiatao and others and decided on the 7th.

Su Chen nodded: "Okay, I will come to visit the graves on the 7th, and take you to the temple by the way."

Xu Jiating pointed at herself and said, "Brother-in-law, can I go?"

"Go, with your brother-in-law here, you can go anywhere!"

Xu Jiating raised her eyebrows proudly at Xu Dasheng: "Dad, my brother-in-law has spoken!"

Xu Dasheng was helpless: "Something happened in the mountains a while ago, you kid..."

Zhang Ju: "Achen, don't spoil her. She's becoming more and more disobedient. Recently, I told her not to do laundry. She's been doing it secretly all day long."

"I won't wash, why do I always ask you and sister-in-law to wash?" Xu Jiating glared, "I've been out of confinement for so long."

Du Jie came over with the scallion oil noodles and said, "It's not that I don't want you to wash it, but you had a heavy hemorrhage earlier and half your life was lost. You need to recuperate for a while."

"If you keep feeding me, I'll turn into a pig. Look at my face, how much bigger it is now than before the New Year? Ah Wei has become fat because of eating with me."

Su Chen looked at Huang Shaowei carefully.

You know what, I've gained a lot of weight.

While eating scallion oil noodles, Xu Jiating asked Su Chen what she could do in the city now. She said with a bitter face: "Brother-in-law, I want to find a job that can take care of children and work at the same time. Is there any?"

"What can you do?" Su Chen asked after taking a sip of noodles.

“I can use a sewing machine to make clothes.”

Xu Jiatao whispered, "I went to town and asked around. There are very few people hiring for clothing makers in the city right now. They say most of the clothing they buy is from the south."

Xu Jiating's face fell. "Then I can't rely entirely on Wei for support, right? He works at a construction site and only makes so little money a month. I also want to save money to pay you back and buy a house in the future."

"Awei is going to work on the construction site?" Su Chen looked at Huang Shaowei curiously.

The latter scratched his head and said, "Well, I went in and asked around a few days ago, and it turns out that working on the construction site pays better."

“It’s a bit tiring on the construction site.”

"I know. It's normal for men to be a little tired. It's better than hanging around with nothing to do."

Su Chen: "..."

indeed!

As the son-in-law, Huang Shaowei lived in his wife's family. He did not work and wandered around all day. Even though the Xu family cared about him, he could not avoid being pointed at by the villagers, which made him feel uncomfortable.

This situation also occurred in the original body's memory. Later, when I got tired of it, I liked to wander around in the fields alone and throw stones at the river.

That day...

What a waste of time.

When Su Chen came to his senses, the bowl was empty.

Huang Shaowei and others began to persuade Xu Jiating to stop struggling and focus on taking care of the children first.

"I don't want to listen to you. You've never made a lot of money in your life. Why should I listen to you? I listen to my brother-in-law..."

Su Chen: "..."

He smiled and said, "If you really want to work, you'll probably have to put your children aside."

"I remember some units have nurseries. I'll ask for you later."

"As for what specific job it is, I'll ask my friends if there are any suitable ones."

Xu Jiating was surprised: "Thank you, brother-in-law!"

The matter was settled, the noodles were eaten, and Su Chen got up and left.

After he left, Zhang Ju pulled Xu Jiating and kept muttering to herself.

"Your sister is gone. Let's not contact the Su family if we can, or people will accuse us of trying to be related."

Xu Dasheng nodded and said, "You still have to rely on yourself. Don't always rely on others."

Xu Jiating glared: "How come my brother-in-law is someone else?"

"If nothing else, my brother-in-law is my savior."

"If you ask me not to contact you any more, wouldn't that be a shame?"

Zhang Ju: "But you, you let Achen help you..."

"Why can't you help?"

"My brother-in-law is obviously here because my sister wants to help our family."

"Otherwise, look at which son-in-law is like my brother-in-law. He doesn't even give me rice, flour, grain, oil, crabs, and lobsters during the New Year or other festivals."

"Brother-in-law has tried so hard, do you still want him to beg for help?"

Zhang Ju stammered.

I always feel that this is a fallacy, but I can't find any point to refute it.

Xu Dasheng looked disapproving, while Xu Jiatao seemed to be thinking about something.

"You are just too noble. I am different."

"Anyway, Wei and I are homeless now. I have to rely on you and my brother-in-law first."

"I'm not asking for tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of dollars. I just need help, and I'll help him wherever he can. If he finds it troublesome, I'll just find an excuse and say I don't need it, and he won't have to worry about it. Isn't that great?"

"I'm not an ungrateful person. When we become rich and capable in the future, I will repay my brother-in-law, as well as you, my elder brother and sister-in-law."

Du Jie waved her hands quickly: "Why are you being so polite to us?"

Xu Jiatao nodded: "That's right."

Xu Jiating put her hands on her hips and said, "That's how it is. Big brother, big sister, big sister, big brother-in-law, what's the difference? I can ask you for help, why can't I ask my brother-in-law?"

Everyone: "..."
