How to survive in poverty: I use a simulator to farm

Chapter 123 Is it an unexpected pregnancy?
The imperial court levied labor force every year, and many families who were not prosperous often suffered from chaos and even death.

In ancient times, four generations of farmers at the bottom lived under one roof because the younger generations dared not separate their families.

Separating the family means that the family has to bear more risks.

Every time the imperial court requisitioned civilian husbands, it was based on their household status.

If the families are divided casually, those small households will suffer serious losses.

It's not fun to do corvee service. If you don't pay attention, people will die.

In ancient times, there were no antibiotics or anti-inflammatory shots. Once they got sick and had a fever, the farmers at the bottom couldn't afford the money to treat themselves, so they had to rely on their own bodies to carry it.

Once an adult male dies due to labor in the family, it is a disaster for those small families.

In the future, when farming and doing corvee labor, the conditions at home will be much worse.

……

Chenjiacun was shocked today.

The village chief Chen Qiliang opened the ancestral hall and announced that after the imperial court issued a notice to requisition civilian husbands, everyone frowned and looked gloomy.

"Oh my God! Our family doesn't even have enough food to eat right now. How can we have the money to bring our own dry food to build those river embankments? Oh, oh, oh, oh, are we going to kill our family?!"

"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu"""""

……

Chen Qiliang's brows were almost knotted when he heard these villagers crying and yelling at each other.

Each family has to go to three this time. If one is missing, the yamen will question him. It is difficult for him to be the leader of the clan!

Thinking that it was the turn of his younger son and his family to do corvee this time, he thought about it and hurriedly took his sons home. He wanted to prepare dry food for at least a month for his younger son and his two sons.

One kilogram of grain a day, and three people working there for a month would have to prepare nearly 100 kilograms of grain.

Thinking that there was a lot of food, the other sons might have less gossip in private. As soon as Chen Qiliang got home, he emphasized to them how tiring it was to clean up the silt and sediment in the river.

……

Chen Yixuan's whole family knew that he was going to do corvee service.

Wang Yingying knew that no matter what, she had to send a man.Either her man, or her biological son.

The palms and backs of the hands were full of flesh, and Wang Yingying burst into tears.

Woohoo, why is her stomach so unhappy?
If she could still have children, she would give her man more sons, who would probably be in their teens.

A boy of this age can help the family a little bit no matter what.

Seeing her man silent, Wang Yingying felt particularly heavy and her tears became even more abundant.

Woohoo, cleaning up silt and sand in the river is actually very dangerous!

If her man accidentally gets tired, sick, or even dies, how will she survive in the future?

Orphaned and widowed, with no land or land, they have nothing, how can they not be forced to death by this cannibalistic world?
Thinking of the prosperity and loss of this family, Wang Yingying quickly grabbed Chen Yixing's hand and said: "Master, when you go out, you must take good care of yourself no matter what."

"I don't want anything else. I just want you to live well. Only if you live well can your son and I have a way out. Head, you must take care of yourself!"

Because she was too excited, Wang Yingying accidentally fainted.

Seeing that she was not doing well, Chen Yixing quickly held her in his arms.

Seeing that she will go out with the village chief's youngest son tomorrow, her daughter-in-law's poor health caused this incident. Whether she meant it or not, others would think she did it on purpose.

"Brother, sister-in-law, my wife's body has never been of much use..."

Chen Feiyan, who was sitting aside and frying "fried flour", raised his eyes slightly, and then said something that made his whole body stiffen. "Brother, my sister-in-law must be pregnant."

"She told me three months ago that her sunflower water didn't come. If I guessed correctly, she should be four months pregnant."

At this moment, Wang Yingying just woke up from a coma.When she suddenly heard the news, she quickly denied it: "How is that possible?"

"I haven't been pregnant in more than ten years. How could I be pregnant at this time?"

Chen Feiyan talked about her observations in recent months.

"Sister-in-law, do you like to eat hawthorns the most lately? Several times, I saw you eating dried sour hawthorns, even eating a handful of them dry. You ate so much that you didn't even wrinkle your face."

"Besides, you like to doze off while working recently. You just closed your eyes after sitting for a while."

"The most important thing is, sister-in-law, please touch your belly. Your belly is bulging, don't you realize it?"

When Chen Yixing heard this, his eyes widened and he felt excited.

Recently, he secretly slept with his wife.He had long seen that his wife seemed to have eaten several melons secretly, and her belly was always bulging and a little hard.

At that time, he still felt that his wife was smart and got food from her siblings, and she was still full.

But now that I think about it, my brother and sister's guess makes sense.

So, Chen Yixing looked excited, stared at Wang Yingying's bulging belly and said: "Daughter-in-law, as the old saying goes, a sour girl is a hot girl. This baby in your belly must be a big fat boy."

Worried that he might have made a mistake, Chen Yixing hurriedly said: "Daughter-in-law, actually I really want a daughter."

"This girl is not bad after she is raised!"

Chen Yixing once overheard a conversation between his younger brother and his younger siblings.

They talked about the more than 20 famous empresses and empress dowagers in history who had second, third and even fourth marriages.

For a great hero like Cao Cao, the lady he married, later Queen Bian, was just a prostitute and dancer!

Wei Zifu, the queen of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, was the singer in the princess's house.Queen Liu E was also a second-married singer.

It can be seen from this that heroes do not ask where they come from!
Regardless of whether you are a man or a woman, as long as you have good skills and good luck, you can still bring glory to your family and family.

After Chen Yixing overheard what his younger brother and his wife were saying, he suddenly understood.

I think what my brother and his wife said was really good.

If your daughter is well-raised, she can still be successful!
It is not convenient for Chen Yixing to mention this to his wife Wang Yingying for the time being.He planned to have a good talk with her tonight.

He had to make her realize that he would be very happy if she gave birth to a daughter this time.

……

Chen Feiyan fryes five kilograms of wheat flour each time.

The smell was so fragrant that the big guys drooled.

The nephews who were still staying at Chen Feiyan's house were looking at her eagerly.

Chen Feiyan brewed a small bowl for them all, and after they all ate, she gave them orders.

"No household here can escape this matter of requisitioning civilian husbands. You should go back quickly and listen to the arrangements of your grandparents."

Seeing them leaving together, Chen Feiyan talked to her eldest son Chen Xiaoyi.

There were not enough men in the family, so this time he had to let Chen Xiaoyi, the oldest and most stable man with normal hearing, go with his biological father and uncle.
