Bai Shan looked at the uneaten meatloaf strips in his hand, handed it to Bai Dalang and said, "First cousin, I'll give this to you to make up for it."
Bai Dalang ignored him at all, stretched out his hand to hold his wife's hand and said excitedly: "I, I'm going to be a father!"
Bai Erlang also came back to his senses, and now he said in surprise: "I, I'm going to be an uncle?"
Man Bao was also very happy for them, but seeing Bai Erlang so surprised, she still said reservedly: "I want to be an aunt too."
Bai Erlang said: "Haven't you always been an aunt?"
Man Bao said: "My sixth sister-in-law is also pregnant, but she is not yet three months old, so she didn't tell anyone."
Bai Erlang: "...You already said it last time during the holidays."
Saturday's sister-in-law was diagnosed with pregnancy last time during the last ten-year holiday. At that time, the whole family knew about it, including the Bai family.
It is said that it is not spread to the outside world, but it is just that it is not spread to the outside world.
Seeing that they were fighting over this, Bai Shan looked at the elder cousin who was already helping Cheng sit down to greet them, ignoring them at all. He simply dragged the two of them out, "Let's go to the kitchen to see if there is anything else."
Something delicious."
Leave some space to the couple.
Bai Dalang and Cheng were really excited and happy. They sat in the study room by themselves for two quarters of an hour. After the excitement subsided, Bai Dalang carefully helped Cheng back to the house, but he still felt weak in his hands and feet.
Soft, the whole person feels light and airy.
On the contrary, Cheng is more stable than Bai Dalang, at least she feels that she is on solid ground.
Speaking of which, they have been married for more than a year, and they have never had children. In July, when Mr. Bai and Mrs. Bai were there, they secretly showed Man Bao to them.
But in fact, they didn't need to ask. Mrs. Cheng quietly took Saturday's sister-in-law to see Manbao. Manbao was sure that there was nothing wrong with the four of them, and in turn comforted the two sisters-in-law, "My mother said that children depend on fate.
Yes, sometimes children come when fate comes."
Comfort them both not to worry.
Sister-in-law Saturday gave up, and Lao Zhoutou and Mrs. Qian didn't press her. The main reason was that they had too many children, and Saturday Lang wouldn't be conspicuous if he didn't have any children for the time being.
Liu Lang himself was not in a hurry. He went to the restaurant at home every day, and learned to cook some dishes from Xiao Qian when he had time. Occasionally, he would take Saturday's sister-in-law out to play.
So Saturday's sister-in-law herself was nervous for a while and then relaxed. However, Cheng's pressure has been very high, especially after it was reported that Saturday's sister-in-law was pregnant in the first half of the year.
The couple supported each other back into the house, and the three of them, Manbao, who had gone around the kitchen, took delicious food and left. Not long after, everyone in the family knew about this.
The Zhou family is now headed by the Xiao Qian family. She thought for a while and said: "Since eating meatloaf strips will make you vomit, you just want to eat something lighter. It just so happened that your eldest brother just brought back a lot of cabbage from the Zhuangzi. I
Give her some cabbage soup and ask Lijun to deliver it to her later."
Mrs. Liu also knew about it, and immediately called for the people who were waiting in the yard for the two of them, and said: "The ice in the yard must be shoveled clean. Follow two more people around you, and you must support them when you go in and out."
There are no such nasty things in their family, but they should always pay attention to these accidents and not be careless.
He also talked about the precautions that pregnant women should pay attention to, and then said: "It's still early days, so don't talk about it outside for the time being. We will talk about it after three months."
Everyone should step down.
Because he couldn't talk about it outside, Bai Dalang, who really wanted to write a letter to tell his parents, could only endure it and didn't even talk about it at home. I heard that he couldn't talk about it often, otherwise the mother who gave the child would be frightened away.
Because Zhou Man was an official and was still in the national mourning period, Bai Dalang did not invite her to drink when everyone had dinner together the next day. Instead, he invited her to drink a bowl of soup, and he happily drank a glass of wine.
Manbao:……
She could only accept the soup, replacing the wine with Bai Dalang's gratitude.
Different from the many scruples here in the capital, there is a lively scene in Qili Village. Folks only need to observe mourning for three months, which has already passed by now.
Therefore, all the weddings that were postponed due to the national mourning were concentrated on the two days before the New Year. It is better to have a wife to celebrate the New Year.
The same goes for Qili Village, which has held three weddings in a row since entering the twelfth lunar month. In the village next door, relatives and friends are going to have a drink. Uncle Qian's family also has two grandsons who are getting married this year.
Because of this, Zhou Lang, who returned home, was unable to go to Beijing. He simply stayed at home to spend the New Year and collect a wave of tea leaves in the spring of next year before leaving.
The New Year is coming up in two days, and the old Zhou family’s New Year’s goods have already been prepared. All that’s left is to prepare various things in the kitchen to prepare for the New Year.
Little Qian was away this year, and the family really disliked Feng's craftsmanship. In the end, Qian went into the kitchen by herself and asked the second daughter-in-law and the third daughter-in-law to prepare it.
Lao Zhoutou had nothing to do, so he sat under the big banyan tree at the end of the village and bragged with people. Not only were there many people here, but the sun was also good, so he could bask in the sun and talk to people at the same time.
People in Qili Village now like to talk around him, mainly because Mr. Bai is too reserved and he doesn't like to sit and talk with them.
In their village, the only people in their village who have been to the capital to enjoy the blessings and are well-informed are the old Zhou family members.
"Uncle Jin, you have met the prince, but have you met the emperor?"
Lao Zhoutou said regretfully: "I haven't seen it, so can anyone see the emperor? Only Manbao can be seen by entering the palace every day."
Everyone was amazed when they heard this, and they all thought it was amazing. After all, they had watched Zhou Man grow up.
But Zhou Man has been smart since she was a child, mainly because her father is also very smart.
The older ones couldn't help but glance at the wrinkled Zhou Jin, thinking that although he was not as smart as his brother, he was lucky enough to have raised such a girl.
Someone said: "It's better to marry a wife."
"Yes, it's a pity that the Qian family has many grandchildren and few granddaughters, otherwise..."
"Let's look at the next generation."
"It's not easy. Uncle Jin's family doesn't have many granddaughters now."
"Hey, by the way, Uncle Jin, did Erya say we kissed?"
Zhou Jin waved his hand and said, "Not yet. It's hard for me and her grandma to talk about her marriage. We have to have Manbao come to discuss it."
Everyone who had just started to think about it couldn't help but ask: "Why?"
"She's so capable," Zhou Jin said without hesitation: "She can now make more money than her fourth uncle. It would be too unfair to say that to ordinary people. Her grandma and I don't know many people.
So I gave it to her sister-in-law."
Zhou Lijun is not young now. Old Zhou was not in a hurry when he was in the capital, but after Liu Lang, his and Qian's endurance skills have improved a lot.
When Zhou Lijun came back from the grassland, she settled an account with the old couple. She mainly calculated the money she had earned this year and what she had done during this trip to the grassland.
Then he directly said to Lao Zhoutou Qian: "Grandpa, grandma, I don't want to go back to farming."
Lao Zhoutou didn't realize it at the time and said directly: "Who asked you to go back to farming? Is it your mother?"
Mrs. Qian understood what her granddaughter meant, and after thinking for a while, she said: "I will let your sister-in-law take more care of your marriage. You should pay attention to it yourself. If you don't want to farm, just don't farm. What we do all year round can't be compared to you."
You can support yourself with the fraction you earn from a trip out."
