Pastoral Valley Fragrance

Chapter 44 Exhale and raise eyebrows
There has been another commotion in the Li family's yard.

When the work was over in the evening, due to Li Dejiang's absence, a piece of field that was originally planned to be planted was not completed. Zhang thought that Li Dejiang was probably called by someone to help fish, so he didn't care, thinking that he could have a meal when he came back. It's good to have a good meal.But when he came back, except for a small plate of eggs, Mrs. Chen was cooking nothing meaty. He also heard that Li Dejiang and Mrs. Xu packed up and went to the town neatly. His complexion also changed a little, but Mrs. Chen seemed to be fine, and she was still provoking: "Mother, you don't know that the second brother and the second sister-in-law are dressed smartly and just went out like this. I don't think there is anything wrong with it, but The second sister-in-law has been ill for so many days, I thought they were going to go out, and the second brother probably asked the mother, so he didn't say anything, who knows they made their own decisions."

Mrs. Zhang was even more angry, "Mother, look, we are so tired that we go home in the middle of the night. The couple should have a certain limit when they go to the street. I'm afraid they went to help there again. I just know that taking care of my mother's house, I haven't been back to my mother's house for half a year!"

Li Dehai was sullen and didn't speak, while Old Li was smoking a pipe.

It was getting dark and I hadn’t returned home yet. Seeing that the eldest daughter-in-law was angry, and the fourth daughter-in-law was eccentric, Li He said at this time, "Eat and eat, those who work hard wait for those who don't work to pay back! It’s been a day since I went out and I still don’t know how to come back.”

Mrs. Chen was waiting for this moment, raised her voice, and set the table. A big pot of rice was beside her. Since it was the busy season of farming, she even fried a few eggs. Mrs. Zhang took advantage of Mrs. Chen's going to the rice bowl, Holding a piece of egg with his hand, he stuffed it into Li Qiu's mouth. Li He couldn't understand her behavior, "You're so hungry?"

A bullock cart came into the yard, and Li Dejiang said with a smile: "Father, mother, it's time for dinner."

Li He looked at the ox cart and was even more angry, "I said what's the matter, I went out and hired an ox cart to come back. If you are not in charge of the family, you don't know how expensive firewood, rice, oil and salt are. I want you to be in charge of the house... ..."

Before Li He could finish his sentence, he saw Xu Qin coming out from the shadows with the help of Xu Qin. It was dark and they only saw the carriage and did not see the people behind. When Li He saw his in-laws, he ate Surprised, he stopped talking halfway, and his momentum weakened a lot.

Anyway, Xu Qinshi made up his mind to support his daughter, and by the way let out the idleness of the past few years. Seeing Li Heshi like this, he also said: "These days are originally lived by young people, only those who have no experience control them. But don't worry, these things are all birth gifts from us, ah, just eat these things..." After finishing speaking, he walked to the front of the table, "Tsk tsk tsk, no wonder my daughter is so skinny, poor and miserable , I can’t eat a good bite even if I have a child, my own daughter is in pain, so Dejiang, go kill a chicken and make soup first.”

Li Dejiang complied, carried the chicken to the kitchen, and turned around to tell everyone to stop, and serve two more dishes later.

Xu Qinshi is also considerate. If he hadn't been so shy by Li Heshi before, he wouldn't have said so. It seemed almost done, so he took a breath and said to Lao Li: "Dear family, this girl is just pregnant. Don’t worry about what I said at this moment. The old man in the hospital said to rest. I’m not afraid of delaying your work. I don’t have anything to do, so I came here to wait for you, and I didn’t call you in advance. I said hello, but I'm really going to bother you."

As soon as he finished speaking, Old Li stood up and asked Xu Qinshi to sit down. The whole family was beaming. When Li Qiu heard that there was chicken to eat, he was even happier, "Second Uncle, I'll help you light the fire. .”

Li He stared at the things on the bullock cart again, but saw Xu Qin carrying the big and small pieces together and putting them in Xu's room. She felt angry when the things were empty, but she couldn't say anything. After all, after having this second child, the family has become more stable, and she is relieved.

Li Dejiang has never been so happy. He killed the chicken and stewed the soup quickly, and was busy sorting out the things he brought back. A piece of cloth was used to make clothes for Li He, a piece of fine satin was used to embroider the dowry for Qiao'e, etc. After the chicken was stewed, he gave Liqiu a chicken leg. When the family sat down to eat, he poured wine for Lao Litou and Li Dehai and Li Dehe. In the end, he forgot his own and laughed. The whole Li family yard was filled with joy. , It is rare to become peaceful.

And Mrs. Zhang and Mrs. Chen also received the benefits from Mrs. Xu and Mrs. Qin, so they are naturally amiable, especially Mrs. Mrs. Chen, who has been standing next to Mrs. Xu and told her to pay attention to this and that when she is pregnant, just like how many children she has given birth to. In general, coupled with whispering in Xu's ear from time to time and snickering from time to time, she looks closer than her own sisters.

After eating and talking, the reality is in front of him. Xu Qinshi doesn't know where he lives when he comes here.

After thinking about it, Li Dejiang still felt that it would be better to live in Gu Yu's side. There were only the second son's family and his second uncle, grandpa and grandson there. He thought that the small bed that Li Dequan built back then was still there, or he would just squeeze in with the Wang family. , should not be a problem.

Along the way, Mrs. Xu Qin heard from Mrs. Xu that the youngest of the Li family came back with his family. First, he was kicked out so hard. Mrs. Xu was still helping Xu Shihe outside without knowing it, and then there were a few more troubles. It was my niece who helped me over there, especially the niece named Gu Yu over there, she was very clever, she was pushed into the river and snatched the head water, this time they brought stonefish and the like, this time The first time she came out to see the doctor, she still had a pregnancy dream... In a word, Xu Qinshi now wants to meet the people over there.

In addition to expressing her gratitude, she also thought that Mrs. Xu has always been honest. This time, she saw that the eldest daughter-in-law was very domineering, but the fourth daughter-in-law looked okay, so she didn't know what would happen in the future. If the third daughter-in-law was better I'm afraid they will be able to talk in the future, Xu Qinshi has a steelyard in his heart, and he knows exactly how many catties and taels there are.

When Li Dejiang said that he wanted to live there, Xu Qinshi proposed to go there by himself.Now Li Dejiang and Xu Qinshi took the clothes they had left on purpose, thinking that the weather was getting hotter, and they wanted to make new clothes for Xiao Manguyu, and brought a few catties of meat, and a silver collar for Xia Zhi. Then come to Gu Yu's house.

Gu Yu's family was eating, a bowl of dried loach fried with spicy peppers, and a vegetable soup, and Wang's had a bowl of egg custard, and it was peaceful to eat.Before eating, Gu Yu discussed with Jing Zhe how to deal with the three acres of paddy fields in his family. It is difficult for Gu Yu and Xiaoman to go to the fields during the day, so they can only be dispatched at night. Fortunately, the moonlight is not bad, but they have never done it. In the field, Jing Zhe went to see others planting fields after school, it looked simple, so he thought about practicing it at night.The three brothers and sisters had a meal with their thoughts in mind, but a guest came unexpectedly.

Seeing Li Dejiang coming in with so many things, Mrs. Wang was very embarrassed. It was not easy for her to accept the things that were not needed for the Chinese New Year. Xu Qinshi was very amused by holding Xia Zhi happily, " This is earned by my naughty son, not for me to show off, he opened a restaurant in the town, and the business is still going well, and these things are ready-made, you just take it, you are Gu Yu, if you want It wasn't you, how could your second aunt conceive so smoothly, I thought it was the credit of that head of water, this looks really good, white and tender and clever, not at all like a girl in Zhuangzi."

Gu Yu was naturally also happy for them, he was overjoyed when he heard the praise for no reason, and saw that the quality of the material was good, and the meat seemed to be edible for a long time, seeing that Xu Qinshi was not difficult to get along with, he smiled Said: "Grandma, I think that the second aunt will have a little brother, maybe there will be two at once."

Li Dejiang also brought a bag of shredded tobacco to the second uncle, but the second uncle went out unexpectedly. He discussed with An Jinxuan whether he could let Xu Qinshi come and stay for a few days, but An Jinxuan didn't say anything, just had dinner I went back to my room.

Xu Qinshi decided to live in this way. Originally, he moved the small bed that Li Dequan made into Gu Yu's room. Wang Shi didn't agree, so the two gave way, and finally decided to let Wang Shi and Xu Qinshi live together. Xu Qin slept with Gu Yu when Li Dequan came back, and Xiao Man moved to live in a small bed.Xu Qinshi liked it even more when she saw that Wang Shi was well-educated and thoughtful.

Li Dejiang settled Xu Qin's family, thinking about the yard over there, he was about to leave.

Gu Yu pulled Li Dejiang over with a smile, and said a few words in a low voice. Li Dejiang was first surprised by the difference, and then nodded, "You still eat this."

Seeing that Li Dejiang didn't intend to blame, Gu Yu said loudly: "Second Uncle, when Second Aunt gives birth to a baby, she can be called Xiaohan or Dahan, the others are not good!"

Li Dejiang was stunned again, only to realize that this is the solar terms that old Litou was named in the first place. This elder brother has the beginning of spring, the beginning of summer, the beginning of autumn, the third child has the Jingzhe Xiaomanguyu and the summer solstice, and the rest of Qingming and Xiaoxue are not too bad. Zhongyi, it's really Xiaohan who is good, and the time of birth will happen to be that time, so he agreed, "Okay, let's use the name we named Gu Yu, Xiaohan is fine, and Dahan is also fine!"
