Happy Life in Siheyuan

Chapter 265 Gifts
"Xiuzhi, stop working in the fields these few days, and take care of your baby at home. When Ling Jun comes back, let him take you to the county hospital for a checkup."

Niu Fengying supported Li Xiuzhi, explaining in a bit of babble.

"Ok!"

With a smile on the corner of Li Xiuzhi's mouth, she nodded and agreed.

Although she doesn't really want to rest at home, but the morning sickness reaction is too strong, so she can't help but not rest.

Soon, Niu Fengying sent Li Xiuzhi home, and then rushed to the field to tell Wang Guangyue about it, and asked for leave for Li Xiuzhi by the way.

It didn't take long for the women of the seventh team to know that Li Xiuzhi was pregnant, and when they went home for lunch, they brought some eggs, brown sugar, sauerkraut and other things to Xu Lingjun's home.

Today, Xu Lingjun is in the hearts of the people in the seventh team, not just being honest and doing things in a down-to-earth manner.

As Xu Lingjun cultivated the big green horse, the horse king, and led other people to hunt together, the people in the seventh team had put Xu Lingjun in a relatively important position, and of course they would show more concern about Xu Lingjun's affairs.

In the evening, Li Xiuzhi was eating alone at home, when suddenly there was a shout from outside the door.

"Xiuzhi, Xiuzhi!"

"Hey!"

She was taken aback for a moment, responded loudly, then got up, opened the door and went out.

"Xiuzhi, I heard that you are pregnant, so I came to see you."

Seeing Li Xiuzhi coming out, Wan Gui'e hurriedly handed over the egg she was carrying.

"Cousin, why are you here?"

Li Xiuzhi frowned slightly, and asked with some doubts.

Ever since she was driven away by Wan Gui'e, she didn't want to recognize this relative again, and she didn't even mention this person to Xu Lingjun.

She said that even if she went back home, she would have no way to survive, and if she was asked to go back like this, wouldn't that be sending her to death?
"Hehe, that, I had no choice but to let you go before, so don't blame me."

Wan Gui'e said with a slightly embarrassed smile.

"It's okay, I forgot about it a long time ago, take this egg back!"

Li Xiuzhi smiled slightly, waved her hand and said.

"Xiuzhi, no matter what, we are all relatives after all. Now that you are married, you should know that us daughter-in-laws sometimes cannot help themselves. Take this egg! Treat it as my apology to you." Sorry."

Wan Gui'e said sincerely.

"No, cousin, you don't have to do this, let the past go! I just want to live a good life now."

Li Xiuzhi refused unmoved.

"you"

Wan Gui'e's face suddenly changed, and she felt a little embarrassed.

If it wasn't for the fact that her family wanted to learn how to hunt from Xu Lingjun, she wouldn't have come to please Li Xiuzhi eagerly.

"Cousin, you go back! The room is a bit messy, so I won't invite you to sit in."

Li Xiuzhi said with a straight face.

"Hmph! What's the big deal, don't think that if you marry Xu Lingjun, you will be able to live a good life in the future. He is an old man, and he might be arrested and reformed one day. It will be up to you then."

When Wan Gui'e heard the words, she couldn't hold back her face for a moment, and couldn't help but sneered.

"I won't bother you about what happens to me in the future! Besides, I believe that one day, brother Xu will take off his hat."

Li Xiuzhi gritted her teeth and said angrily.

After finishing speaking, she turned her head and went into the room directly, and then ate big mouthfuls.

Wan Gui'e stood where she was, her face turning blue and white. After a while, she stomped her feet and left with a frown.

The next day, after breakfast, Li Xiuzhi fed chickens and rabbits in the yard.

Suddenly, people from other teams came to visit her one after another, and they all brought some gifts.

She wanted to refuse, but these people didn't give her a chance to refuse, so they put down their things and left.

Later, she told Niu Fengying about the matter and wanted to return the things.

Niu Fengying told her to put away the things at ease and wait for Xu Lingjun to come back.

In a blink of an eye, another seven or eight days passed.

On this day, Xu Lingjun drove his horse back home, and as soon as he walked into the yard, he found that there were many people in his home.

He was slightly taken aback, and looked at Li Xiuzhi with some doubts.

Li Xiuzhi glanced at the crowd, stepped forward and pulled Xu Lingjun aside, and explained the matter.

"What? Are you pregnant?"

When Xu Lingjun heard Li Xiuzhi say that she was pregnant, she immediately forgot about other things, her mind was full of surprise and surprise.

"Well, Mrs. Niu took me to see Dr. Liu before, but Dr. Liu said it's better to go to the county hospital for a checkup."

Li Xiuzhi pursed her lips and said softly.

"Then what are you waiting for, let's go, let's go now."

Xu Lingjun urged anxiously.

"Oh! What are you in a hurry for? It's getting dark now, and you won't be able to go until tomorrow."

Li Xiuzhi rolled her eyes and said angrily.

"Yes! Hehe!"

Xu Lingjun smiled awkwardly, and unconsciously set his gaze on Li Xiuzhi's lower abdomen, feeling slightly agitated.

At the same time, when the people in the room saw the hare and pheasant brought back by Xu Lingjun, their eyes lit up suddenly, and their eyes were a little fiery.

During this period of time, no one knew that Xu Lingjun had a unique skill in hunting, and every household with the seventh team could often eat meat.

Although members of their other teams can also catch rabbits and pheasants on the mountain, they usually only catch a dozen of them after more than ten days, and each family can only get one or two.

There is no such thing as the seventh team. Every time they go up the mountain to release horses, each family can bring back four or five hares and three or four pheasants.

If you save some food, it means that the people in the seventh team have already lived a life of eating meat every day.

Moreover, not only can rabbits be eaten, they can also be skinned to make fur, and pheasant feathers can also be used to make dusters.

Even if you don't use it to make clothes, you can still use it as a gift, and you can also secretly sell it to some fur dealers to earn some money to subsidize your family.

The reason why they gave Li Xiuzhi something was to let Xu Lingjun teach their men how to hunt!

Outside the door, Xu Lingjun heard Li Xiuzhi talk about the herdsmen giving gifts again, and he immediately understood what these people were planning.

This was in his expectation, so he waved his hand to signal Li Xiuzhi not to worry, then walked into the room with a smile.

"Lingjun, your house is really well built."

"Ling Jun! In the blink of an eye, you have been in our village for 15 years, and now you can be regarded as a top performer. Not only is your wife married, but you will soon become a father again!"

"Lingjun, let me tell you, Xiuzhi just got pregnant, you must not mess around, it is easy to cause problems."

"."

Seeing Xu Lingjun coming in, everyone greeted him one after another, and there was even an enthusiastic aunt who said something that made him feel a little embarrassed.
