Chapter 319 Sending off my daughter (fourth update)
"Noodles, you're hungry! Put more vegetables." Qi Yaoyao said without thinking.

"Okay, no problem." Mrs. Chen replied briskly, turned to look at Shiliu and said, "Scrambled eggs, two poached eggs."

"Yes!" Pomegranate replied crisply, filled the stove with firewood, and started to light it up slowly. It's not so cold, so it doesn't need to be so hot.

Pomegranate filled the big iron pot with cold water, and there was hot water to use when she turned around, she bowed and retreated.

Mrs. Chen looked up at Qi Yaoyao who was painting on the kang table, "Get busy! I went back to the house to spin flowers, but I didn't expect the yamen to give us so much cotton." She closed her mouth happily from ear to ear.

"Your bedroom is too cold, come here to spin flowers! This will also save firewood." Qi Yaoyao stopped the eyebrow pencil in her hand and looked up at her and said, after thinking about it, "Anyway, the county magistrate is not here, so you can use it at night Stay here!"

"Yesterday, Heng'er told me about this place, about where, and let me take good care of you. I also thought about coming here at night, anyway, the kang is big enough." Chen looked at her with a smile and said, "You speak now, I'm just moving here!"

"Move it!" Qi Yaoyao smiled and nodded, anyway, she has to meditate at night, and for Chen Shi, the sleep spell will ensure her to sleep until dawn.

"Then I'll go get the spinning floats first." Mrs. Chen left quickly, and Shaoqing came in carrying the spinning floats.

"Put it on the kang! It's too cold underground, and you can spin flowers while sitting on the kang." Qi Yaoyao stretched out her hand to pat the kang and said.

"Okay, then I'll sit at the end of the kang." Mrs. Chen put the spinning float at the end of the kang, took off her shoes and got on the kang, crossed her legs, shook the spinning float, and began to spin flowers creaking.

"Sitting on the kang is not cold at all." Chen said while spinning lace, "Our hometown used to be a plain, there were not so many mountains and forests, and the firewood was made of wheat stalks and weeds, which were not burned. It was cold in the house this winter. Fanghua's hands are as cold as ice bumps." With a light sigh, "Heng'er's hands are so cold that he can't even hold a pen."

"I don't have firewood, can't I buy charcoal? Don't buy good ones." Qi Yaoyao knew how hard Chen and the others had lived. "Isn't it okay to buy ordinary charcoal? It's cheap."

"Where do we lack firewood, where can we burn good charcoal! Charcoal is also expensive! Except for the rich who can afford it, ordinary people can resist like this." Chen looked at her calmly and said, "Really It’s hard to imagine that the county government will directly provide charcoal fires. With the firewood sent by the Ding’s family, we’ll have a warm winter this year.”

"The harvest in the county is good this year!" Qi Yaoyao looked at her with raised eyebrows and smiled.

"It's all the result of concerted efforts." Chen looked at her with a smile and said.

Qi Yaoyao pursed her lips and sniggered, the thin laughter overflowing her red lips.

"Daughter-in-law, what are you laughing at?" Chen raised her head and glanced at her.

"I want to say, your tone of speaking is becoming more and more like the magistrate of the county, very elegant." Qi Yaoyao stopped his hands and looked at her with bright eyes and smiled.

Mrs. Chen smiled embarrassedly after being praised, "As the family members of the magistrate, we can't hold Heng'er back!"

"That's right." Qi Yaoyao smiled, lowered her head and continued to draw.

"Didn't my daughter-in-law have finished painting, why are you still painting!" Chen looked at her in surprise and asked.

"Some people here don't have enough firewood, so they can weave some straw mats and cover them on the baskets to keep warm." Qi Yaoyao looked at her with pure eyes and said.

"Straw mat?" Chen frowned slightly and looked at her and said, "Could it be too thin, how can it keep warm!"

"Try it!" Qi Yaoyao said simply and relaxedly, "It must be that Gai is better than Gai, it can't work, the straw mat is covered with thick hay, this bed is also matted!"

Chen's eyes lit up when she heard the words, "Yes!" She looked at her with a smile on her face and said, "My daughter-in-law is really trying her best!"

"It's not easy to rely on the sky to earn food from the earth. You can earn some money and live a prosperous life without leaving the house." Qi Yaoyao said while looking at her with watery eyes and a smile.

Mrs. Chen nodded with a smile, put down the spinning thread in her hand, thought for a while and said, "My daughter-in-law doesn't want to know, did Heng'er tell me anything before leaving?"

"The left and right are just asking us to take care of ourselves and take care of ourselves." Qi Yaoyao looked at her with bright eyes and said.

"It's almost the same. He told me to take care of you, take a bath before giving birth, and don't forget to cut your nails." Chen said in a sour tone, "It's all about you, and you didn't even mention the child."

"Oh..." Qi Yaoyao responded meaningfully.

After waiting for a long time, Mrs. Chen said, "That's it?"

"What do you want to hear from me?" Qi Yaoyao looked at her leisurely and said, "It's not easy to speak intimate words!"

When Chen heard this, her cheeks were flushed, and she said embarrassedly, "I just want you to know."

I shrink back first.

"My daughter-in-law hasn't asked you yet, do you prefer a daughter or a son." Chen looked at her without blinking and asked.

"I like my daughter. My daughter is fragrant, soft and beautiful." Qi Yaoyao looked at her with eyes full of smiles and said, "My daughter is my mother's caring little padded jacket."

The more Mr. Chen listened, the more hesitant he became. This was at odds with his own opinion, and he didn't speak speculatively.

Mrs. Chen promised her son that she would not talk about Mrs. Qi's affairs between them.

The spinning wheel creaked again.

Qi Yaoyao's dark eyes flickered as she looked at Chen Shi, and knew how dissatisfied she was with what she said.

But this is her own truth, she likes her daughter!

Qi Yaoyao looked at her with dark jade-like eyes and said, "It's true that I like my daughter, but this environment is a man's decision. He is harsh on his daughter, so it's better to have a son."

Hearing this, Mrs. Chen raised her head and looked at her suddenly, her peach blossom eyes like Shen Zhouheng's were wide open, she patted her thigh and said, "Oh! I like my son too." As if meeting a bosom friend, she said, "This Henger, he Before my father left, I didn't think there was anything wrong with it? After Heng'er's father left, I had to show my face in order to help Heng'er get an honor in the exam, so I realized how difficult it was for this woman to be outside. I was wronged at the time I cried out of anger, thinking that I must be a man in my next life.”

"But we can't make up our minds about this matter. Boys and girls are sent by Guanyin. No matter what we give, we have to catch it, don't we?" Qi Yaoyao looked at her and said playfully, winking.

"Our family is clean and innocent, and has never done anything wicked. The Son-Send Guanyin will definitely send a son." Chen said confidently after hearing the words, and looked at her with bright eyes.

"Knowing that we are a kind family and won't abuse our daughter, maybe this son-song Guanyin was specially sent to her." Qi Yaoyao looked at her with glazed eyes and said specially.

"Ah!" Chen looked at her dumbfounded, "Not like this."

"Hehe..." Qi Yaoyao was amused by her reaction.
