Xu Zhinian was really moved after receiving the letter and package.
After getting married, many comrades in arms would receive packages from home, but this was the first time for him.
There was a time when I thought that my parents only loved my little sister but not him. With the salary he sent back every month, my parents only wanted to make clothes for my little sister, but they couldn't think of anything to send him, even if it was just the peppers grown at home.
I dried them in the sun, boiled them into sauce, planted radishes and dried them in the sun, but I didn't get any of them.
It's not that he wants to wear new clothes or eat dried radish with spicy sauce, but...how to put it, he also longs for something from his family, no matter how much it is worth.
Now it's finally arrived.
His parents care about him, and his wife also cares about him. My younger sister... my younger sister actually treats him very well.
All the things in the past... He understood when he was young. Now that he is older, isn't he more sensible?
I'm thinking that I can save up a few days of family leave by the end of the year.
When your daughter-in-law gives birth, it is best to rush back to stay with her and cheer her up.
My little sister is right. Giving birth is the most dangerous thing in a woman's life. It's another matter whether she can make it back when she's on a mission. She should go back wherever she can.
…
As they enter their senior year of high school, their goals gradually become clearer.
Although the mock exam has not started yet, but with the preparation of the final exam of last semester, everyone has a certain idea.
"Yinyin, have you decided which school to go to?"
After the morning reading class, Tong Guihua bumped into Xu Yin with her elbow.
Xu Yin shook her head: "No, it won't be too late to wait until the official mock test to see the scores."
"I think you can try a few universities in Haicheng. Apart from Russian, you have the highest score in the other subjects in our class, and you are among the top ten in your grade. My old classmate once said that if you are in the top ten in our school, go to
Beijing University and BGI are not sure, but Hainan University is still fine."
Xu Yin hasn't decided which school to go to. She's mainly worried that the plot guy will take advantage of her being far away from home and attack again.
"talk later!"
"That's right, there are still ten months left, just like pregnancy and childbirth, there is still a long time. Maybe if you work hard, you can go to a higher level, squeeze into the top five or top three of your grade, and you can go to the Imperial Capital
Already."
Xu Yin burst into laughter, her deskmate was quite confident in her.
"Yinyin, my cousin is getting married soon. I heard that your sister-in-law makes good clothes, so she asked me to bring a piece of cloth to see what kind of skirt I can cut." The female classmate in the front row came to her after class.
"My sister-in-law is about to give birth. I'm afraid I won't have time to do it recently." Xu Yin shook her head.
My sister-in-law started to have edema in her legs in the late stages of her pregnancy. She couldn't fit into her existing shoes, so she had to step on the uppers of the shoes as slippers.
She doesn't plan to go home to take orders anymore.
However, in order to make her sister-in-law happy, when she returned home, she showed her new designs to Sister-in-law Xu. They were all new designs that were not available on the market.
"Sister-in-law, when you are out of confinement, you can choose any dress to make and I will bring you business right away. Now listen to me and take care of your baby with peace of mind. I went to the obstetrics and gynecology department of the hospital and found out that you can't sit still all the time in the later stages of pregnancy.
Walk more, otherwise it will be more difficult to give birth."
Xu's mother opened her mouth and wanted to say that it was not easy to move more. She just had to work in the fields every day.
"We were working in the fields at that time, and some of them gave birth directly."
"Mom, you can't say that. Everyone's situation is different. According to what you said, why are there heavy bleeding and dystocia? A woman giving birth is like going to the front line to fight. We must despise the enemy strategically, but we must pay attention to it tactically.
Enemy, only in this way can we defeat the enemy!"
Xu’s mother: “…”
It’s just a baby. What kind of tactics and strategies are there? Treat her like she never gave birth?
Xu Yin’s attitude this time was extremely tough:
"Anyway, I have reserved a bed in the hospital. We will move in three days before my sister-in-law is due to give birth. Of course, if it starts in advance, we will move in immediately and we can't delay!"
"What? Are you still in the hospital?" Mother Xu's eyes widened as soon as she heard this, "Isn't this a waste of money? Who doesn't hire a midwife to deliver a baby?" She really couldn't understand.
Xu Yin pulled her mother into the room, squeezed her shoulders and said:
"Mom, listen to me, I'm not saying this out of nowhere. There is a classmate in our school. Her sister-in-law gave birth to twins during the summer vacation. As a result, because she didn't pay attention during the pregnancy, she gave birth prematurely and had a difficult delivery.
Unfortunately, the two children lost their mother as soon as they were born, and they didn't even get a sip of breast milk. My classmate went everywhere to find people to raise milk powder tickets. He couldn't buy milk powder and could only eat rice porridge. He was not even in the confinement period and was as thin as a newborn.
Like a little kitten, it’s so miserable.”
She didn't lie, there was such an example, but it was not from her school. Tong Guihua heard it from No. 3 Middle School, and she didn't know the specific person.
Xu's mother looked a little relaxed after hearing this.
Xu Yin kept up her efforts: "My sister-in-law has been hardworking and uncomplaining since she married into our family, right? Has she treated me, you and dad well? Now her craftsmanship has helped our family make money. I'm not bragging. With the speed at which she makes money,
By the Chinese New Year next year at the latest, our family will be able to build a new house. What if something goes wrong during the birth process? What do you think we should do? It’s impossible for the eldest brother to stop marrying at this age, right? It’s better to marry someone who is as hard-working and uncomplaining as the eldest sister-in-law. What if something happens?
She is like a dominatrix who is unfilial to the elderly and abuses children to death..."
Thinking of such a scene, Xu's mother was excited: "Okay, okay, just do whatever you want."
At worst, I can ask my son to send me more allowance next time.
When his wife gives birth to a child, does she still want to use my mother's money?
Xu Yin couldn't help turning her back and snickering.
Every time her mother couldn't say anything, she would just say, "Just do what you say."
During the autumn harvest, Xu Yin went back to her grandmother's house.
At the beginning of the month, her uncle carried a sack of mountain goods to her house. In addition to dried fungus and mushrooms, there were also several kilograms of wild chestnuts.
Among them, the red mushrooms are placed alone, weighing about six or seven kilograms.
The uncle didn't ask her to sell it, but only said: "I heard from your aunt that you like red mushrooms, so I saved a bag for you. Can the school start a group? If so, bring it to make soup."
Xu Yin thanked her uncle, and after returning to school, she took a break to go to a Chinese medicine shop in the south of the city.
The clerk said that although red mushrooms can be considered as medicinal materials, there is not much demand. At least the people who come to them to buy traditional Chinese medicine rarely use red mushrooms. If they really want to sell them, they can take them, but the purchase price is not very high.
The employee of the drug store asked her to ask at the dry goods market in Kaixin District. There were many vendors traveling from north to south and the competition was high, so the prices charged might be higher.
But after Xu Yin went to check it out, she found that the red mushrooms sold in the dry goods market were far inferior to the ones at her uncle's house, and she was suddenly reluctant to sell them.
Such good stuff, truly natural and pollution-free!
No matter how much money you want to buy wild red mushrooms of such good quality in later generations, you may not be able to buy them.
Even if the purchase price offered by the dry goods market is indeed higher than that of the medicinal materials store, she does not intend to sell it. She will store it all in the system warehouse and save it for later consumption.
Who knows that I will have to travel through several small worlds in the future, so I can stock up on more supplies so as not to suffer a loss.
