The Little Dumb Wife of the Mountain People

Chapter 63 Wen Bao is Seven and a Half Months Pregnant

Wu Shi wanted to laugh when she heard Wen Bao's words, she naturally understood what her daughter was thinking, but she still had other things on her mind, and after Wen Bao asked, she just said it outright.

"Bao'er, your fourth brother did well in the exam this time. Your uncle asked someone to inquire about it, and it is likely that he will be admitted to Juren."

Wu's face was full of smiles as she said that, one must know that the ancestors of the Wen family were just someone who had been admitted to Jucai and opened a college.

Of the four sons of the Wen family, although Wen Chengzhi, the eldest son, was studying, he struggled in the scholar examination, let alone the later Juren.However, he reads a lot, and every time he puts on airs, he can't see that he is any worse than Master Juren.

The second son, Wen Chengyong, loved yellow and white things since he was a child, and helped manage the family shop. Wen Youcai also enjoyed the blessings in the early years.

Not to mention the third son, Wen Chengshuang, who has loved to practice martial arts since he was a child, and it is definitely impossible for him to study and shine in his family.

The youngest son, Wen Chengquan, is only 19 years old this year, and he is very likely to pass the Juren examination, so the Wen family naturally attaches great importance to it.

Wen's family is so talented because of their ancestors, let alone Wu's family.

The Wu family has always been in business, and there are no scholars. Now that their own son can be admitted to Juren, the Wu family naturally feels proud.

Wen Bao's eyes lit up after hearing Wu Shi's words. If her fourth brother can be admitted to Juren, then the Wen family's life will be easier in the future, and she and Song Dalang will also be favored.

At this time, if you pass the Juren examination, you can be called the master of Juren, and even if you don't continue the scientific examination, you can still be a small official in the county.

"Mother, what is the fourth brother's idea, continue the exam or come back?"

The Wen family had many sons, if Wen Chengquan came back, Wen Youcai would inevitably have to start another family business.

With a daughter like Wen Bao, Mrs. Wu is a little bit personal, and it's not easy to tell her daughter-in-law, so naturally she won't tell Wen Bao.

"Your fourth brother wrote a letter saying that he wants to come back and study for another two years and wait for the next scientific examination. Your father also meant the same thing. He is nineteen. Mother guessed that he would find a wife for your fourth brother and let him go after the next scientific examination. .”

After Mrs. Wu told Wen Bao this, Wen Bao understood what her mother meant, so he hurried back this time, presumably because he wanted to find a wife for her fourth brother?
Thinking of this, Wen Bao looked up at her mother's expression, and sure enough, she saw something in her mother's expression.

"Mother, are you going to find a wife for the fourth brother?"

After Wen Bao guessed this, he didn't hold back, Wu and his daughter wouldn't hide it, so he immediately said what he had discussed with Wen Youcai.

"It's not that your father and I can't think about it. When he gets married, he and his wife will discuss how to live in the future.

Your eldest brother took over the academy at home, and your second brother took over the shop. Your father and I asked your third brother and his wife, and they said they would move in after the house in Songjia Village was built.

Your father and I are thinking about dividing up the family when your fourth brother gets married, so as to save a lot of trouble in the future. While your father and I can still move, we also want to relax for two years. "

Although Wu shi said a lot, Wen Bao still understood it clearly, but...

Wen Bao looked up at her mother, and then said: "Then what do parents want to live with that brother?"

It is impossible for all four sons to be separated. Thinking about what Wen Bao heard before, it is estimated that her parents have already made up their minds.

"It stands to reason that we should live with the eldest son or the youngest son, but your father and I still miss you, so we decided to follow your third brother and third sister-in-law to Songjia Village. But as long as your father and I are still alive, it's still okay for our family to celebrate the New Year. To be together."

Wen Bao guessed that her parents would do this.

Her eldest brother's family has an academy, her second brother's family has a shop, her fourth brother is good at studying, and only her third brother's family is still unable to do anything because her legs are still weak.

"It's good for the third brother to live in Songjia Village. My cousin and I are doing business together. The third brother can also help Dalang order. Dalang has no real brothers. I can rest assured that I have the third brother with him."

What Wen Bao didn't say was very clear, but Wu Shi also knew that her daughter was trying to drag her brother, so she smiled and said: "I know that you brothers and sisters are of the same mind, so don't let me and your father worry."

Wu's tone of voice was relaxed, and Wen Bao couldn't help but want to laugh. She said that it was true that she asked the third brother to help, and she didn't mean to coax people.

The Wen family left early the next morning. They brought a lot of things. Wen Bao was pregnant and the family was building a house. They didn't have time to go to town. The things the Wen family sent were just usable.

After Wen's family had left, Wen Bao picked out what her mother said and told Song Dalang.

After talking about Wen's family planning to split up, Song Dalang became silent.

Wen Bao didn't know what happened to Song Dalang, seeing that Song Dalang was silent, he pushed him immediately.

"What's wrong with you?"

Wen Bao didn't understand what was going on with Song Dalang, and only after pushing Song Dalang a little did Song Dalang react.

Song Dalang put his arms around Wen Bao, touched Wen Bao's protruding abdomen, and said, "I just wondered if we would divide the family between our children and grandchildren, and the family business that parents have accumulated for so many years will be separated. We also need to accumulate more family property, or we won’t have enough sons in the future.”

Song Dalang spoke in a serious manner, as if he had already seen a group of sons surrounding him, and a group of grandchildren in the future.

Hearing Song Dalang's words, Wen Bao was stunned for a moment.

She used to think that she came here through time travel, with knowledge and insight, to direct Song Dalang everywhere, but looking at Song Dalang these days, Wen Bao found that Song Dalang did not do badly.

"Well, it's to save a family business."

Although Wen Bao said he wanted to start a family business, he didn't want to have so many children.

She knew that people in ancient times said that having more children means more blessings, but she didn't want to keep having children.

Children are raised in the mother's womb, and what feeds them is the mother's essence and blood. The more children they have, the worse the woman's health will be. She doesn't want to make her body so bad.

But Wen Bao also knew that Song Dalang liked children, and she would definitely have two or three children, but she would not want to have five in a lifetime like her mother.

Song Dalang didn't know what Wen Bao was thinking, after hearing Wen Bao's words, he began to think about how to make money and stir up this family.

The matter of Song Lan stopped being discussed in Songjia Village after a few days. When Wen Bao went out, her house was about to be built.

At this time, the news that Wen Chengquan passed the examination also came back.

There are few scholars in Songjia Village. Wen Bao's mother's family was originally respected because of their studies. Now that Wen Bao's fourth brother has passed the examination, they are naturally more respected.

"Daughter-in-law, why don't we go to town tomorrow?"

The house at home has already been built, and Wen Bao has already ordered furniture and so on. Now the house is hanging out and the grapes haven’t been harvested. Song Dalang stays with Wen Bao at home except for hunting every day.

Wen Bao was more than seven months pregnant, and it was not convenient for her to walk with her stomach stretched out. She wanted to go to the town to play, but she was also worried about the baby in her belly.

"let me see."

It's hot today, and Wen Bao's appetite is not as good as before. Because Zhang Lian said that he can't eat too much, or he will be too fat to have a baby, Wen Bao began to deliberately control his appetite.

Song Dalang felt sorry for Wen Bao, and brought back the mountain spring and iced cucumbers to make cold noodles for Wen Bao at night.

Now that Wen Bao is pregnant, Song Dalang has learned how to roll noodles, and Wen Chengyong brings white noodles over regularly, and Song Dalang often cooks pheasant soup for Wen Bao to eat noodles.

Today is hot, eating hot noodle soup is uncomfortable, but it is also very comfortable to mix a bowl of cold noodles.

"My daughter-in-law, I'll cook for you and eat cold noodles."

It was too hot and Wen Bao accidentally mentioned it to Song Dalang. Unexpectedly, Song Dalang fell in love with it after eating it once, and now he has to make it every three days.

When it comes to food, Wen Bao will not wrong herself. As soon as Song Dalang said to eat cold noodles, she immediately said: "I will make soup with the dried shrimp skin my cousin gave me. I want to eat it."

There are no calcium tablets here, Wen Bao only knows that the skin of the shrimp has a lot of calcium, this kind of small shrimp, put it in water and make a soup, it is fresh and calcium.

"Okay, I'll make a face-to-face meeting right now."

Song Dalang was busy cooking, and the Wen family in the town also welcomed guests.

"My fourth cousin said he wanted to go on a study tour for half a year. My father said that nothing would happen if he followed him. He asked me to come back and report."

After Wu Houye drank herbal tea and explained the matter, he began to think about going to Songjia Village to meet his cousin tomorrow.

After hearing Wu Houye's words, Wu Shi and Wen Youcai couldn't help but look at each other, wondering whether it was because the fourth son had received their letter that they would not come back.

"What else did your fourth cousin say?"

Wu believed that her son did not come back on purpose. Seeing what her nephew was thinking, she immediately said such a sentence.

Wu Houye still liked his aunt very much, and he didn't hide it when Mrs. Wu spoke up, and directly said why Wen Chengquan didn't come back.

"Auntie, do you want to call fourth cousin a daughter-in-law?"

As soon as Wu Houye's words came out, Wu Shi and Wen Youcai looked at each other and sighed softly. After knowing why the youngest son didn't come back, Wu Shi didn't think about it anymore.

There are already so many grandchildren in the family, since the youngest son does not want to get married for the time being, they will not force him.

Seeing what his aunt and uncle meant, Wu Houye felt sad. His fourth cousin didn't want to marry a wife, but he couldn't.

Wu Houye trembled thinking about the fat on his body like this, thinking of his cousin in Songjia Village, Wu Houye said: "Auntie, I'm going to Songjia Village tomorrow, my cousin has something to do with me, do you have something to take with you?"

It has been a long time since Wen Bao asked someone to bring a message to Wu Houye, and Wu Houye came back after collecting some good things. Now that he is back, naturally he has to hurry to see Wen Bao.

"Nothing, you go and see how your cousin's house is being built. After a few days, your third cousin's legs will be fine, so let him go down and look at the house at home."

The Wen family also wanted to build a house at the foot of the mountain in Songjia Village. The structure of the house they built was similar to that of Wen Bao's house, except that they built a courtyard with two entrances.

When Song Dalang's house was built, the foundation of Wen's house was also dug, and the Songjia Villagers who were still hired would build them as soon as Song Dalang's house was built.

"Okay, then I'll go check it out tomorrow."

Thinking of seeing his cousin tomorrow, Wu Houye's fat face trembled with laughter, but he didn't know that the cousin he was thinking about was actually brewing a big plan waiting for him.
