Smallholder Farming Daily

Chapter 162

Pomegranate and Shaoyao were grinding rice noodles, and Xiu'er looked around to find them.

Shiliu greeted her, "Xiu'er, come quickly!"

Xiu'er heard the sound and came in, she glanced at Shaoyao, saw that Shaoyao was beautiful and gentle, seemed to be better than herself, so she took a few more glances at Shaoyao, "Sister, is this the Shaoyao you mentioned?"

Shiliu laughed loudly, "Look at your sister-in-law, you don't know each other until now, Xiu'er, you have been here for several days, why haven't you met Shaoyao?"

Xiu'er pursed her lips and smiled, and said softly, "I haven't been out these few days, and I'm not familiar with the village, so I didn't come to look for my siblings."

Shaoyao heard from the villagers that Xiu'er had come out of the brothel, so she took a few steps back, away from Xiu'er, and said casually, "Pomegranate, how did you and... sister-in-law meet?"

"Last year, Qian Feng and I went to sell silkworm cocoons, and when we stayed at the inn..." Shiliu was talking, when Xiu'er came over and pinched her on the back, Shiliu immediately shut up.

Xiu'er smiled and said: "Sister and sister, my sister and I met by chance on the road. At that time, I had no money to eat, so my elder brother and sister gave me some money. They are my benefactors."

Pomegranate pushed the mill vigorously, walked in a circle, and said as she turned: "Xiu'er, don't keep your mouth shut, it belongs to your elder brother and sister. You can call me Pomegranate, and Shaoyao also calls me Pomegranate. You are Shaoyao." Sister-in-law, Shaoyao calls me pomegranate, but you call me my sister, it sounds weird."

Xiu'er covered her mouth and smiled lightly, "Well, I'll call you Pomegranate too." Then she looked at Shao Yao again, "I wonder how old my siblings are this year?"

Shao Yao lowered her head and put the rice into the stone mill hole bit by bit, and whispered: "On the second day of the Lunar New Year, I just turned sixteen."

"Oh, then I'm half a year older than you, no wonder I'm a sister-in-law." Xiu'er came over and stood with Shao Yao and put rice into the hole, Shao Yao retracted her hand, took two steps back and stood beside her watching.

Xiu'er felt that Shaoyao didn't get close to her on purpose, and she seemed to think she came from the brothel, so she didn't care, and continued talking and laughing with Pomegranate, "Pomegranate, you don't have a big stomach, so you are going to grind rice noodles Is it?"

Pomegranate said excitedly: "My mother-in-law gave birth to a baby, she is a little fairy!"

"Your mother-in-law is still giving birth to a baby at such an old age, can she still give birth to a little fairy? I'll go and see with you later!"

Shi Liu was stunned, "No, you'd better not go to my house, Qian Feng fought with your man, no, it was your man who fought Qian Feng first, the two families have already had a grudge, if your man and mother-in-law know about you If you go to my house, I will definitely scold you."

Xiu'er was at a loss, "Is there such a thing?"

Shao Yao came over and said: "Pomegranate, I also want to go and have a look, I will go back with you later."

Shiliu thinks that Shaoyao doesn't live with her in-laws anyway, and she doesn't have a good relationship with her in-laws. Everyone in the village knows that she and Shiliu are best sisters, so it should be okay for her to go.

Shi Liu nodded and said: "Okay, let's grind it quickly, my sister-in-law is still at home waiting for someone to take her."

Xiu'er couldn't get in the conversation, so she silently helped with the work for a while. After grinding, Pomegranate and Shaoyao went out together. Xiu'er also patted the powder on her hands and went home.

Shao Yao even deliberately ran home to take out a catty of sugar and ten eggs, and then chased the pomegranate and came together.

Mrs. Yang was already very tired after giving birth just now, and she was excited for a while, and now she fell asleep without carrying it, and the child was lying in the cradle next to her, sleeping soundly.

Shao Yao followed Pomegranate and tiptoed in, pushed aside the quilt of the cradle, and peeped at the child inside.

Shao Yao looked at Xi Han, "Pomegranate, your mother-in-law is so lucky to be able to give birth to such a juicy child at such an old age. You are always shouting like little fairy, little fairy, did your in-laws give the child a name in advance?"

Pomegranate was afraid of waking up her mother-in-law and children, so she covered the quilt lightly, and took Shaoyao to the kitchen.

It was getting late, and Pomegranate started to make lunch, washing the pot in his hand, and said: "Shaoyao, let me tell you, my mother-in-law is planning to raise this child as a little fairy. She has been looking forward to her daughter for decades. , She said that taking a mortal's name doesn't suit a little fairy, but she couldn't think of a better name, so she didn't choose it all the time. When Qian Feng came back, her mother-in-law would definitely ask him what he meant, because he has a good head. "

After Shiliu finished speaking, she giggled, and said mysteriously: "The child in my belly, Qian Feng has already named him."

"Really?" Shao Yao was very interested in this, "What kind of name did you choose? Qian Feng's name will definitely not be vulgar."

Shiliu blinked and said, "Boys are called Qian Duoduo, and girls are also called...Qian Duoduo."

"What? Qian Duoduo?" Shaoyao let out a burst of laughter, "Qian Feng is crazy about Qian, how can he name his child Qian Duoduo?"

Pomegranate pursed her mouth, "What's the matter, isn't it good? I think it sounds good. There is a lot of money. When he grows up, he will never be short of money to spend his whole life. How wonderful!"

Shao Yao couldn't stop laughing, she was about to shed tears, "Okay, it's very good, it's really good, why don't you call it a lot of money."

Shao Yao also had to rush home to cook, so she ran home after laughing for a while.

Pomegranate hummed while cooking, "A lot of money, a lot of money, my baby has a lot of money, a lot of money, a lot of food, a lot of reading, a lot of everything..."

As soon as the rice was cooked, Father Qian came back, followed by Ge Taohua, Qian Tong, Songqiu, and Sui'er.

Seeing that Mrs. Yang really gave birth to a daughter, Father Qian was overjoyed for some reason, held the child in his arms and kissed again and again.Yang stared at her, "You dirty old man, quickly put my little fairy down, don't make her dirty."

Papa Qian put the baby in the cradle, Song Qiu and Sui Er gathered around and touched the little fairy's face.

Yang yelled again: "You even dare to touch my aunt's face, no matter how big or small, hurry up and get out!"

Pine Ball and Sui Er laughed and ran out.

Father Qian sat down and said, "Why didn't you ask Shiliu to tell me when you gave birth to a baby?"

"The pomegranates are so busy, they grab a handful here, grab a handful there, how can I have time to tell you, if you know it or not, it's the same, can you still run back to deliver the baby?"

At this time, Shiliu came over with a bowl of hot food, "Mom, you are hungry, eat quickly."

Yang took the bowl, "Actually, I'm not hungry. Didn't you cook me a bowl of egg noodles just after giving birth?"

She said she was not hungry, but she still wanted to eat when she picked up the bowl.Pomegranate ran to warm up a small bowl of rice soup and brought it over, "Mother, does the little fairy only drink rice soup, how can I be full like this?"
