70s Xiao Que Xing

Chapter 177 Fan Min's Conspiracy

"What are you thinking, is your aunt like that?" Xie Xiaonian said, touching Lanhua's forehead.

"Then why didn't you go up the mountain?" Lan Hua asked doubtfully, touching her head.

"My stomach is more than 5 months old, and it is inconvenient to go up the mountain every day. I was worried about you before, so I stayed with you all the time. Now that the big girls are here, I can rest assured. Before the child is full moon, I Maybe you won’t be able to go up the mountain anymore, but I will tell you when to dig and what medicinal materials, and when you pick them back, I will teach you how to make them and dry them.”

In fact, even if I don’t meet the big girls today, Xie Xiaonian has decided not to go up the mountain after a while. After all, she has a big belly, and the fetus is very energetic, and the fetal movement is very frequent every day. Xie Xiaonian wants to give the child prenatal education at home. , to interact with the child.

And she is also planning to make more clothes and diapers for the child when she is free. Although the sister-in-law said that she can give her the old clothes and diapers at home, Xie Xiaonian still wants to use new cotton cloth. Newborns have weak resistance. I don't know how many bacteria live on old clothes.

This time, even if Xu's mother thought she was a prodigal, Xie Xiaonian would admit it, she just wanted to give the child the best possible.

And in the following time, when Xie Xiaonian was taking good care of her baby, Lan Hua also became good friends with Da Ya and the others.

Because there are more and more wild vegetables and mushrooms on the mountain now, and Lanhua teaches Da Ya and them to pick different medicinal materials to sell from time to time, so the life of Da Ya's family is easier.

And the one who has gained the most is Weiguo. Since he started raising those two little rabbits, Weiguo will raise them as long as he catches a living hare.

When the cage where the rabbits were first raised was a bit crowded, he asked his father to build a rabbit pen in the backyard. Now there are 6 rabbits in it, and 2 female rabbits are about to give birth to babies.

Because they were raised in the backyard, even if others came to visit the house, they would not be able to see them, and the children were told not to speak out, so so far, they have not been discovered.

In fact, even if it is found, it is nothing. After all, although there are almost no rabbits in the village, there is no rule in the brigade that cannot raise rabbits, and there are also rabbits in the neighboring villages.

They are so cautious mainly because they are afraid of being discovered that they often hunt prey. After all, they don't worry about the shortage but the unevenness, so it's better not to attract people's red eyes.

In a blink of an eye, it was the day before the Dragon Boat Festival, because there was nothing to do at home, so Xie Xiaonian took five kinds of silk thread "green, red, white, black, and yellow" to the sister-in-law's house to make longevity thread with her.

Although the longevity thread is usually worn by children, but the baby in her stomach has not yet come out, so Xie Xiaonian is going to wear it for herself after making it.

On the day of Dragon Boat Festival, Xie Xiaonian got up early in the morning, tied longevity threads on her wrists, ankles and neck, and inserted the wormwood that Lanhua helped cut yesterday at the gate, and then went to the kitchen to make zongzi.

She soaked glutinous rice and the like in the space in advance, so she can start wrapping directly.

Because Xie Xiaonian and her sister-in-law's family like to eat sweet rice dumplings, she filled them with red dates and red bean paste. Originally, she wanted to make eight-treasure sweet rice dumplings, but unfortunately there were not enough ingredients, so she had to give up.

As for salty rice dumplings such as egg yolk rice dumplings and meat rice dumplings that were very popular in the previous life, people on their side would not eat them.

Because glutinous rice is more expensive, most people only pack a few meanings, and poor people don’t know how to pack any of them.

And children also like to eat this kind of sweets, Xie Xiaonian thought that the sister-in-law would not make too many, so she made nearly 50 of them at once, so that Lanhua and the others could eat a few more.

Because I had to eat at my sister-in-law's house at noon, Xie Xiaonian went directly to my sister-in-law's house after cooking the rice dumplings.

"Lanhua, Weiguo, I have boiled zongzi in the pot, you go and fish them out, and bring them over in a basin! Be careful not to burn them." After Xie Xiaonian arrived at the sister-in-law's house, she directly spoke to the orchids and rice dumplings in the yard. Wei Guo said.

"Well, okay, let's go right away!" When Wei Guo heard that there was something to eat, he agreed to it, which was very refreshing.

"Xiao Nian, there are zongzi made at home, you can keep the ones you made to eat!" Seeing Xie Xiaonian coming over with a 6-month pregnant belly, Li Suxin hurriedly moved a stool for Xie Xiaonian while talking.

"I pack a lot, and glutinous rice is not easy to digest, so I can't eat too much. It just so happens that everyone is eating together today, so I wrapped them all up."

"Xiao Nian, why did you pack so many?" Mother Xu said in surprise as she watched Lan Hua and Wei Guo bring back a pot full of zongzi.

"Since you have eaten, you have to eat as much as you want. Besides, Lanhua has a good relationship with Da Ya and the others. Da Ya's family just separated this year, so it is difficult. I am definitely not willing to make zongzi, so I made more. Some, thinking about getting Lan Hua to give them some too." Xie Xiaonian explained.

"Lanhua is truly blessed to have you as her master. It's all taken into account for her. I, a mother, never thought of her little sister!" Li Suxin sighed.

"You are also very kind to me." Xie Xiaonian replied with a smile.

Since she was pregnant, her eldest brother helped her pick the water at home, and she hardly worried about the vegetables and crops in the yard and private plot.

As for the poultry she raises, she has never fed them. She said that she raised them, but in fact, it should be said that Lanhua and Weiguo helped her raise them. As for the two pigs at home, she even killed them once. Haven't played.

Even if Xu Zhongjun is at home, he can at most do this, so Xie Xiaonian has always been very grateful to his sister-in-law's family.

"Auntie, how about I take a few zongzi to Da Ya and the others?" Lan Hua asked happily when she heard that Da Ya's share was still there.

"There are 6 people in her family, so you can give two to each person, no matter how much she has, she won't accept it. The red string is stuffed with red dates, and the one with white string is stuffed with red bean paste." Xie Xiaonian explained to Lan Hua road.

"Auntie, I want to eat stuffed red bean paste!" Tao Hua said while drooling when she heard that there was stuffed red bean paste.

"Let's eat after dinner. We have to eat meat at noon. There are not only pheasants but also hares. If you eat zongzi, you won't be able to eat meat." Before Xie Xiaonian could answer, Li Suxin said directly.

In fact, Li Suxin was thinking that zongzi is not easy to digest, so if she eats after eating, Taohua can eat less.

"That's right, you can only eat zongzi after dinner, you see we haven't eaten any." Xie Xiaonian also coaxed in a low voice.

"Okay then!" Although Taohua reluctantly agreed, her eyes were still on the zongzi.

Not long after Lan Hua went out, the second brother Xu Zhonggui's family also came with some rice dumplings.

"Yo, Xiao Nian is here too. It's really early enough. I don't know what delicious food to bring to Dafang. It's not easy for the loyal army to be in the army. Xiao Nian, you should take it easy when spending money."

After the unhappiness last time, Xie Xiaonian and Da Fang never sent anything to Er Fang again, so Second Sister-in-Law treated them even more.

Fan Min believes that Dafang can have so many good things, can hunt prey, and can make money by selling medicines, all because of Xie Xiaonian's help.

They are both sisters-in-law, Xie Xiaonian only helps the first wife, but not the second wife, how could she not resent Xie Xiaonian.

But Fan Min didn't see how much the eldest room helped Xie Xiaonian, but their second room never reached out, even for such trivial things as cutting and tying firewood.

"I don't spend any money, and whether I send things to my parents or not, I don't need to worry about my second sister-in-law. My second sister-in-law doesn't live by the sea, so how can I be so lenient!" Xie Xiaonian replied unceremoniously.

"Okay, the second child, take care of yourself. What are you doing here? Why don't you cook for your sister-in-law!" Xu's mother saw that the children were all in the yard, and she didn't say anything too harsh. , to save some face for Fan Min.

Seeing that Xu's mother was angry, Fan Min didn't dare to say any more harsh words, and went to cook with his sister-in-law.

"Mother, little aunt, look, the big girl made a kite for them and gave me one." After a while, Lan Hua happily ran back with a kite.

"Sister, I want to see, show me quickly!"

"Sister, I want to play."

Because no one in the family knows how to make kites, and they are reluctant to spend money to buy them, the children are very excited.

"Are you really clever with your hands? You can make such an exquisite kite!" Mother Xu praised the kites in the hands of the children.

"That's right, isn't the wheat field in the team ready? It's a big place and it's windy. After dinner, you guys can go there and have a try." Xie Xiaonian suggested.

"Auntie, come with us, we don't know how to fly a kite!" Wei's parents have never flown a kite before. Although they know that it is flying into the sky, they don't know how to do it.

"What are you talking about? You see, your little aunt's stomach is so big. How can she run and play with you? What if you run into a little brother? Let your dad follow you in the afternoon, and he will let him go." The sister-in-law was also attracted out of the kitchen and said with a smile.

"Yeah, my aunt can't run now." Actually, Xie Xiaonian really wanted to fly a kite, but her stomach is weak!

While a group of people were chatting and laughing in the yard, Fan Min, taking advantage of people not paying attention, scooped a large spoonful of what was boiled in the big pot into the pot on the stove in front of the stove, and then pretended to be nothing real. There was a fire.

But what Fan Min didn't know was that her actions happened to be seen by a pair of eyes in the yard.

After the meal was ready and the whole family was on the table, Li Suxin filled a bowl of chicken soup made for Xie Xiaonian and brought it in front of her as usual.

Because there is not much boiled, and there are stewed hare and pheasant on the table, this chicken soup is exclusive to Xie Xiaonian.

Seeing that Li Suxin brought the chicken soup to Xie Xiaonian, Fan Min's eyes flashed with the joy of a successful plot.

"Auntie, I want to drink chicken soup, please give me the chicken soup!"

Seeing that Xie Xiaonian was about to start drinking chicken soup, Wei Min suddenly said.
