The last three bags of Chen Miao were left outside. They were grain owed to Shen Wufu's family.
They pulled the cart away, "Sister-in-law, push the corn back."
Zhao Xiaoyun did not refuse. If Chen Miao didn't have food, he wouldn't ask for it. He would take it if it was given. "I will go to my house for dinner tomorrow and my mother-in-law said to kill the chicken."
Chen Miao shook her head, "I'm not going, let's save it for the New Year. Tell my fifth aunt that you're welcome. I don't have an appetite either. Let's go to the market the day after tomorrow?"
"Zhong, I told my mother-in-law that I also want to use your light to eat meat."
Chen Miao just smiled, thinking that she was too embarrassed to go to someone else's house for dinner.
Zhao Xiaoyun pushed the cart away, and Chen Miao started steaming sweet potatoes, mainly making a fire. A lot of coal was collected in the space, and he was thinking of finding someone to build a stove.
Chen He and his wife brought another bag of soybeans, a bag of peanuts, a bag of sorghum rice, and five baskets of sweet potatoes.
Chen Miao asked them to take back four packets of candy. It is a good thing for people nowadays to eat more candy.
I had rice porridge, boiled eggs and stir-fried pork with cabbage for dinner. Life was pretty good enough.
The next day when I went to deliver persimmons to my parents' house, I was scolded, but I couldn't carry heavy objects.
After I came back, I sat down and started peeling the chestnut kernels. I put them on the kang last night, and today they were shaking and making noises. This means that the kernels and skins inside have separated.
While I was working I heard a knock on the door.
"Sister-in-law, what's wrong with you?"
Yang Yuemei came in with a basket. "It's okay. I'll give you some yams. I went up to the mountain early this year and dug back a lot."
"Well, it's good to eat more yams. Sit in the room." There must be something going on, otherwise I wouldn't have given myself so many yams.
Yang Yuemei looked at Chen Miao peeling chestnuts and said, "I also picked some and kept them for frying during the New Year."
"It's good to eat chestnuts."
The two of them sat down, and Yang Yuemei followed suit.
"Third girl, are you pregnant?"
"Yeah." Chen Miao was not in a good mood, knowing that someone would be suspicious.
Yang Yuemei smiled and said, "You should take good care of your pregnancy. I also heard what others said."
Chen Miao thought there wouldn't be anything nice to say, so she didn't ask. No one could control what others said.
It was obvious that my sister-in-law was in a bad mood, but she still had to say what she wanted to say. "Third girl, it's not safe for you to be alone now that you are pregnant. Otherwise, let Xiaoyan come and take care of you."
"Care about my things? Am I giving you too many smiles? Or do you think I'm a soft persimmon?"
Yang Yuemei's face turned blue and white at that. "No, even if Xiaoyan said that I would take care of you, I think it's okay. It's not convenient for you to be alone."
"No need, don't come to my place again. I hate you in the first place. We only interact with you because of face-related matters. From now on, there will be no face-related matters."
Yang Yuemei didn't expect that Chen Miao would be like this. She might be unhappy. At most, she would refuse. She didn't expect that she would directly break off the relationship.
This is not possible. The third girl is capable and provides a lot of subsidies to her family. They are given to them for things they simply cannot bear to buy or say they cannot afford to buy them.
"Third girl, we are your elder brothers and sisters-in-law, and we are here for your own good. If you don't want to, just don't want to, and we didn't say you had to come over."
"Get out and don't come to my house again." Chen Miao frowned, unable to suppress the anger in her heart.
Of course Yang Yuemei was not willing to give in, "Third girl, you can be so generous and kind to outsiders, why can't you be so good to your family?"
"Because I will kill all the outsiders who care about my things and want to harm me."
Yang Yuemei was startled and stood up in a hurry, forgetting that this was a person who dared to kill someone.
Seeing Yang Yuemei and Chen Miao running away, they rubbed their heads, why couldn't they control their temper? There is no need to be angry with such a person.
I have been peeling chestnut kernels all day, and I can still sit down now. With two children in my belly, I will probably not be able to sit down in another month.
The next day, Shen Jianchun drove the two of them to the market. After leaving the village, he also took Daqiao and Xiaodun's wife with him.
"Xiao Feng's family, what are you going to the market to buy?"
"I don't know either. Let's go take a look at Jishang. I haven't lived at home for a long time and I lack everything."
"It's better to be at home. It's better not to go out now that you have a baby."
Chen Miao knew they had good intentions, but they didn't listen to her ears, so she didn't say anything.
Xiaodun's wife came over and asked, "From Xiaofeng's family, when will Xiaofeng come back?"
"You can't come back until you win."
"Where are they now?"
Chen Miao shook her head and said patiently today that if she heard someone say anything about her, she would definitely deal with them.
"The medicine I delivered to them was picked up by Shen Jianfeng. They were in the south at the end of July. I don't know where they are now."
"How is Xiaofeng?" asked Daqiao's wife.
"He had just recovered from his injury last time I saw him, and he is in good health."
"Thank God, I say it every day that the people in our village who are fighting outside can be safe."
Zhao Xiaoyun also saw that Chen Miao was impatient and immediately took over the conversation.
"From the Xiaofeng family, my family will kill a pig on the eighth day of the twelfth lunar month and my brother-in-law will get married. Can you order the meat?"
Chen Miao nodded, "Okay, I'll go take a look then."
It’s also good to drink bone broth, which can supplement calcium.
The topic turned to Erdun's daughter-in-law, "My mother-in-law said that Erdun's daughter-in-law is not good-looking, but she is capable and looks good at giving birth."
"You are good enough to have children. You have given birth to three children."
"My mother-in-law is thinking that my brother-in-law will have more children. It doesn't matter to us, we can do the best we can, and we will be less angry when we live together in the future."
Sisters-in-law in the country are all similar, and they will definitely compete with each other when working. If she has more, she will have less.
While chatting, they arrived at the market and Shen Jianchun told them to wait at the livestock market.
There were four of us together, and the other three actually just bought what my mother-in-law told me to buy, which wasn't much.
Chen Miao can't do that. She always looks at whatever she sees for sale. As long as she thinks she can use it, she will definitely buy it.
I bought eggs from three stores, as well as large goose and duck eggs. I bought all the eggs.
Everyone knew she was pregnant, but she was too prodigal to use so many eggs. It was hard to say anything at the big show, so she could only help carry them.
I bought half a bag of millet, red adzuki beans, and white rice beans, and half a bag of sticky sorghum.
Zhao Xiaoyun knew it would be like this, "It's from Xiaofeng's family. Let's send it to your eldest brother first. You can wait for us here."
"Okay, I'll see if there's any fresh food."
Chen Miao also felt quite embarrassed. She bought things by herself and had to have others help her carry them and deliver them to her.
After walking a little further, I saw a cotton seller. After discussing the price, I bought all the cotton. The woman selling cloth was the woman.
"Sister-in-law Xiaolan, do you still have any cloth at home?"
"Yes. I haven't seen a girl for a long time."
"I want all these, but you have to help me take them to the car. I will go to your house tomorrow to buy as much cloth as I need."
