"Really? I think so too!" Wen Nuan was delighted.
The two of them were enjoying themselves here when Yang Zhi, the third brother of Yang, came with a grin on his face.
Yang Zhi has always been a quiet person who works silently, doesn't fight or grab, and just follows his second brother in everything!
Yang Rui saw his third brother grinning widely and joked: "Oh, third brother, what good thing has happened to you?"
Yang Zhimeng nodded and said excitedly: "Your third sister-in-law is pregnant!"
Yang Rui knew the feelings of the third brother and the third sister-in-law. They had been married for several years and still had no children. There were no two families like this in the whole village.
People in this era get pregnant very quickly. I don’t know whether it’s because they eat whole grains and other healthy foods, or because they exercise too much. Anyway, very few will get pregnant after half a year.
There are always people in the countryside who are willing to gossip. Not only women gossip, but men are even more gossipy.
Maybe they didn't have bad intentions, but as time went by, Yang Zhi and his wife Shi Wanya slowly changed and became more and more silent.
Now that they are pregnant, Yang Rui is also happy for them: "That's true! That's great! This is such a happy event! Third brother, congratulations!"
Yang Zhi was so excited that he was a little incoherent: "Well, at that time, your sister-in-law said that today is the New Year and she wanted to fry some sweet potato balls, but she retched before she finished frying them.
I quickly took her to Uncle Zhou's place to see her, and sure enough, she was pregnant, thank God, thank God!
Little brother, sister-in-law, do you two know how happy I am? "
Yang Rui and Wen Nuan nodded: ...I can see it.
Yang Zhi opened the lid of the basket he was carrying and brought out a bowl of fried sweet potato balls: "You two can eat it! I won't say more! I have to go back and watch your sister-in-law and her belly." The baby inside is gone!"
Yang Rui was stuffed with a bowl of sweet potato balls. Seeing his third brother hurriedly leaving, he stopped him and said, "Third brother, wait!"
Then he quickly poured the sweet potato balls in the bowl onto his own plate.
Then he put a piece of his newly made sugar melon into the big bowl: "Third brother, this is my newly made sugar melon. Isn't today a small year? It's just right to eat this!"
His brother was a man, and Yang Zhi didn't push him around. He took the bowl handed back by his younger brother and left in a hurry.
Yang Rui half-supported Wenwen and sat on the kang, Wenwen said: "Now the third brother and the third sister-in-law finally got their wish!"
Yang Rui nodded: "It's not easy for the two of them. Regardless of whether the child is a boy or a girl, they all have their own blood! Those annoying people in the village can shut up!"
Nuan Nuan also agreed: "Yes!"
However, Wen Nuan and his third brother and sister-in-law are not very familiar with each other, and they are usually polite to each other.
Although she is happy for them now, she does not ignore the feedback from her body. After all, making sugar melon has delayed her meal time: "I'm hungry!"
Yang Rui immediately came to his senses: "Are you hungry? I'll cook for you right now! What do you want to eat today?"
Nuan Nuan thought about it, and now that he is hungry, he might as well eat something that can be made quickly!
"I want to eat something hot! How about making some noodles?"
The noodles at home were brought back by Yang Rui from outside. They are slightly black and not as white as later generations, but they taste like wheat and are chewy and delicious.
Yang Rui nodded, this is indeed fast!
In about ten minutes, a small pot of noodles, a bowl of egg sauce for mixing noodles, and two salted duck eggs cut in half were served on the table.
The egg sauce is made from home-made miso and stupid eggs. When paired with wheat-flavored noodles, it’s really delicious!
Wen Nuan took two big mouthfuls and then said: "I want to eat some spring onions. It will be delicious with these noodles!"
"There are no spring onions at home at this time, but the Laba garlic pickled during our Laba season is ready. Can I get some for you?" Yang Rui said.
There are no green onions, but laba garlic, and the warmth can be tolerated: "Okay!"
Within two minutes, Yang Rui picked up a few cloves of Laba garlic and came in: "Have a try, this Laba garlic is pickled green, it must be delicious!"
Wen Nuan took a bite of Laba garlic with the noodles. It was really delicious, sour and spicy, and went well with the noodles.
Although Nuan Wenyao was happy, he didn't eat as much as Yang Rui. In the end, Yang Rui swept away all the plates and bowls on the table.
Wherever it passes, not a blade of grass grows.
Even after finishing the egg sauce, there is no need to put leftovers in the kitchen cupboard, you can just wash the dishes.
