Mr. Sheng was surprised when he saw him coming in with a bag full of radishes, carrots, eggplants, bitter melons, and lentils, and a bucket with two fresh eels in his other hand:
"Where do you get so many vegetables? You went out to deliver goods and exchanged them with local farmers?"
Sheng Yujin exclaimed: "Where! My partner grows the vegetables himself. Look! Only my partner can grow such big white radish and such tender and plump lentils. You can't even buy them with money!" She went to the fields to catch eels, and she only caught twelve in total. Today she made eight for me, two for you and grandma, and she only kept two for herself..."
The more Mr. Sheng listened, the darker his face became: "You kid, don't you know how to say no? Your partner is willing to cook it for you because it's good for you, but you really eat it shamelessly? Eight strips a day? Why don't you take it back if you haven't eaten enough? Ouch! Wife! Wife! Come out and see, this kid is so heartless and short-sighted!"
"..."
The old lady came out and saw the vegetables all over the ground, and she was happy: "Your partner grew these all? He is a capable child! But doesn't she work in a breeding farm?"
"Yes, there is a piece of land in front of the dormitory where she lives. She has planted it full of vegetables. Grandma, your future granddaughter-in-law can do a lot of work." Sheng Yujin dodged the eye arrows shot by her grandfather and came to the old lady's side. Tell her one by one.
The old lady nodded happily.
She doesn't know how to grow vegetables. The vegetables they usually eat are either given by relatives or neighbors, or bought with money. If they don't have any vegetables, they go to the steel factory cafeteria.
Therefore, she was particularly fond of older girls and younger daughters-in-law who could grow vegetables. She first fell in love with the eldest grandson's daughter-in-law because her parents' yard was full of seasonal vegetables, which made the old lady envious.
I didn't expect my grandson's partner to be so capable, which is rare in the city.
The old lady smiled from ear to ear: "There happened to be no food at home, so your grandfather and I planned to go to the canteen to make a meal together. You brought the food in time, so I will make it right away. Mix some shredded radish and beat two eggs to fry. How about a bitter melon and fried lentils? Go and call your brother and sister-in-law to eat together."
Sheng Yujin got on her bicycle and went to call her brother and sister-in-law.
Sheng Yuxi was about to go out to the steel factory cafeteria to get food when she heard that he would go to her grandma's house to eat eels in the evening.
"Yo! Where did you get it? Or did you catch it in the countryside?"
"My partner caught him."
"..."
Damn it! It’s great to have a partner!
He also has a wife!
"Daughter-in-law! Wife-in-law!"
Sheng Yuxi shouted into the room at the top of her voice: "Stop lying down, Xiaojin is here to tell us to go to grandma's house for dinner. There are eels!"
Sheng Yujin gave the vegetables he brought to his brother: "My partner grew them himself, and I will give these to my sister-in-law to eat."
"..."
Sheng Yuxi glanced at her younger brother with a complicated expression: "You fell in love with someone, why do you seem to be a different person? Can't you just say her name without saying anything about her? It made me feel awkward and panicked."
Sheng Yujin glanced at him: "I'm happy."
"...Okay, okay, scream as much as you like."
Chen Wenlan came out of the house and heard that these vegetables were grown by Xu Yin. Thinking of the carrots she gave herself to eat, her saliva suddenly secreted a lot.
Immediately I washed a big fat white radish, cut a few slices, held it in my hand and ate it, and walked together to my second hometown while eating.
"This radish is so delicious! It's not spicy at all and very refreshing."
She hasn't had a good appetite recently, and she's always feeling sleepy. She hasn't eaten so well for a long time.
"Isn't it just a radish? Is it really so delicious?" Sheng Yuxi asked for a piece, took a bite, and opened her eyes wide in surprise: "Well, it's not bad! Xiaojin, your partner is very good! Even better than my mother-in-law's. eat!"
Chen Wenlan glanced at him: "I have told you before, Xiao Xu is very capable, and all the single guys in the breeding farm want to have sex with her. Xiao Jin, you must cherish it!"
"Yeah, I will."
Sheng Yujin touched her ears and felt that the person was missing him. Otherwise, why would her ears be so hot?
When the three of them arrived, Grandma Sheng had already fried eels, scrambled bitter melon and eggs, and prepared a few vegetarian dishes. A small round table was filled to the brim.
"It's all thanks to Xiaojin."
He muttered to himself, and then called to his grandchildren: "Sit down and eat while it's hot! This eel is good, the meat is very firm, and it becomes fragrant when fried."
"It smells good now too!"
Sheng Yuxi put a piece of it into the bowl for her elder brother and daughter-in-law before eating.
"It's delicious. Wife, please eat it quickly."
Chen Wenlan raised her chopsticks and was about to eat when she felt nauseated and retched suddenly.
Grandma Sheng thought of something and asked happily: "Lanlan, are you pregnant?"
"..."
Chen Wenlan was startled, her little life seemed to have indeed run out of time.
She put her hand on her lower abdomen. Could it be that she really had it?
Sheng Yuxi urged her: "Eat quickly. After you finish eating, I will take you to the health center for a checkup."
Chen Wenlan is really pregnant!
On the way back from the hospital, she felt unreal. Her feet felt like they were stepping on clouds. Why did she feel like she was dreaming?
She has been looking forward to this child for two years. Fortunately, her parents-in-law are working in the capital, and the two elders of the Sheng family are separated by a generation, so they don't rush her much.
But her parents saw her urging her again and again.
Since this year, her mother has been looking for earthwork even more intensively because she is worried that she will not give birth and will be divorced by her husband's family.
Although she said hard that her husband's family dared to divorce her because she had no children, so she divorced Sheng Yuxi first, but why wasn't she anxious in her heart? Not being able to conceive a child was like a fuse, a fuse buried deep in her heart that could be ignited at any time, and would crackle and explode once it was ignited.
Until the half month when she went to the farm to check the accounts, no one was nagging her. She worked during the day and watched Xu Yin use the available ingredients to cook delicious food at night. She felt happy and relaxed. After I came back, I drank the jasmine tea given by Xu Yin. I was in good spirits during the day and slept well at night. My nerves were not as tense as before, and my migraine had not occurred for a long time.
Lately, I have been feeling like I haven’t gotten enough sleep and I feel sleepy when I’m free. I didn’t expect that I was pregnant.
"Sheng Yuxi, am I really pregnant? Let me pinch you." She reached out and pinched the man's waist.
Sheng Yuxi grimaced in pain and said, "Daughter-in-law, you are really pregnant. You didn't even dream."
"You must have heard it correctly, right?"
"Do you doubt my hearing or my IQ?"
"..."
The next day, Sheng Yujin passed by the breeding farm on her way to deliver goods and brought Xu Yin a basket of red eggs and red peanuts.
"My sister-in-law is pregnant. My grandparents said it was you who brought me good luck. They asked me to bring you a basket of red eggs and peanuts."
Xu Yin didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "I dare not take the credit for this."
"..."
Did you say that you distributed wedding eggs and fruits as soon as you got pregnant?
She always thought she only got it after giving birth.
"It's only after giving birth. Isn't that a thank you to you? My grandma is happy and wants to make you happy too." Sheng Yujin looked at her with a smile on her lips, "My partner is really capable. He can not only deliver pigs but also deliver babies." , and can also induce labor in women.”
"..."
I really want to kick him!
