Amelia could barely hold her head up as she counted Anna out sentence after sentence, because even she now particularly regretted that she had not forced herself to take her children elsewhere, and that it was Matteo who was up every night changing the little ones' diapers and supplying them with formula.
By the time she found out, Matteo had done all this.
"Mom don't say anything."
She had nothing but deep remorse in her heart now, and she was already planning to go back to sleep in the other room alone with the two children, taking care of them at night and then sleeping part-time with them during the day.
She didn't have to work for a while anyway, and until the two children were free to move around, Anna felt she had to take care of them.
Besides, it's not like she didn't have an income from the ramen store business with Mom and Dad helping her take care of it.
As for Matthew, she really needed to let him rest, it had happened once and there would not be a second time.
"You still think Mom is nagging you, don't you? I can be nagging, but it's all for the sake of you and Matteo. I tell you what, when we come back this time, your father and I will take care of the two children. Your father and I will take care of them while you go back to the ramen store and Matteo goes to work, so you won't have to worry about them."
Anna shouted disgruntledly to her mother.
"What? You don't trust me and your father with the children, I raised you, I have more experience with them than you do."
"It's not that I don't trust you and Dad, it's just that I am a new mother and he will be a new father, and these two children are our hearts and minds, and we want to raise them ourselves."
"Raising them yourself, you also have to be able to educate them and earn more money. So you ruin your health, and if you don't have money nothing will help."
"If you want to raise your children, you should take them seriously, you are also bent on raising your children and you think about going to work. The sky is not the limit, the body is not made of iron, however it is decided, after that you either take care of the children, or you work."
Amelia's tone of voice was very firm and non-negotiable.
When Matthew woke up, he heard the two arguing.
Finally Anna lowered her voice, "Okay, okay, mom, you can take the children if you want, Matteo is still asleep, so keep your voice down and don't disturb him."
"Oh, now you know how to feel sorry for someone, how come you didn't know how to feel sorry for him before when he was running around in the middle of the night making formula and had to work during the day."
Really, I don't know how to say it, this girl has a heart as big as hell. Amelia was a bit speechless when it came to her daughter.
Matteo's fingertips twitched as he looked at the little woman standing beside the hospital bed.
She was still wearing the same clothes as yesterday, her hair was all messed up, her eyes were dark, and she looked especially worried and distressed.
She seemed to be guarding herself from her own accident.
Because her mother-in-law was there, Matthew closed his eyes again.
After a while, Amelia began to urge Anna, "Well, well, it's not enough to keep watch all night, she didn't wake up so quickly, so go home and wash up, then get some rest and come back in the evening."
Anna shook her head insistently, "Mom, I'll stay here until she wakes up. I've already eaten and now I have strength, so don't rush me, okay?"
"Damn girl, if it weren't for the fact that you are my daughter, do you think I would rush you?"
"Come on mom! I don't have to stay here, Serena helped me last night and I slept for a few hours. If I get sleepy later, I will lie down here and take a nap, it won't be a problem."
Eventually, Amelia was persuaded to leave.
