Chapter 166 Who is in charge of your family?

Lu Yuxiu heard this from the side, and the corners of his lips curled up. He coughed and said, "You also know that my wife is pregnant. It's very hard to cook. Don't just think about eating white rice later, work!"

"Brother, what are you talking about? Why are you afraid of working? I have all this strength, and I will never be vague about it." Song Yu's mind was full of delicious food, and he didn't think much about it.

Zhou Zheng frowned, feeling that this place was not simple, but he had already walked to the family area and it was not convenient to turn back.

Besides, Song Yu’s curiosity had been aroused, and he didn’t want to leave without trying the delicious food.

Lin Xia went out with Wang Guilan, and not long after they met Yang Hongmei, and they walked together.

Others were curious about who Wang Guilan was. Yang Hongmei knew about this and explained directly: "Have you forgotten? A few days ago, when Xiao Xia was pushed by Old Lady Zhou, didn't the doctor say that she needed to rest? Captain Lu is in the battalion for training and can't take care of anyone, so we have to ask someone to take care of Xiao Xia."

After hearing Yang Hongmei's explanation, everyone knew who Wang Guilan was and began to care about Lin Xia.

She had just heard Yang Hongmei kindly explain to her that if she had a good excuse to hire a nanny, she could save herself a lot of trouble. When she met Yang Hongmei's eyes, they smiled in tacit understanding.

"Then why don't you lie down for a while?" someone asked.

"I've been lying in bed for two days. I can't just do nothing, so I took the opportunity to buy some groceries and go out for a walk." Lin Xia smiled. If she lay in bed for too long, she would probably be called a lazy woman again.

"That's true. When we were pregnant, we went to the fields to plant rice." A sister-in-law talked about the hard times in the past.

There was also a burst of agreement from the side, saying that most of the sisters-in-law came from hard lives in the countryside, and as long as they could get out of bed and walk around after being pregnant, they had worked a lot.

Lin Xia listened on the side without interrupting, being a low-key person.

She wanted to keep a low profile, but someone didn't want to let her go.

"Comrade Lin is able to walk now, why is this sister-in-law still here?" The person who said this was none other than her family's previous resident, Zhao Hehua.

She also had a big belly. Her pregnancy was about the same month as Lin Xia's. Lin Xia was pregnant with twins, and her four-month-old belly looked quite big. However, Zhao Hehua's belly didn't look much smaller either. She looked a little bigger than Lin Xia.

Lin Xia looked at the other person's double chin and knew that she was taking advantage of her pregnancy to eat less. It was okay for her to eat so much now, but it would not be good later.

"Comrade Zhao, the last time I saw the doctor, she told me to eat less and mind my own business during my confinement."

Yang Hongmei had already heard what Zhao Hehua said. When she heard Lin Xia say this, she immediately asked, "Why is that?"

Everyone was also curious.

"The doctor said that if you eat too much, the baby will be too big to give birth to. Stop interfering because it's someone else's business." Lin Xia said gently, and her beautiful big eyes smiled like a crescent moon.

Everyone laughed too, and only after they finished laughing did they realize that what Lin Xia was talking about was what Zhao Hehua had just said, about meddling in other people's business. But when they saw Lin Xia saying it with a smile, they actually thought it was the doctor who said that.

Zhao Hehua saw that everyone was amused, and she felt extremely angry. "Look at how thin you are. Doesn't your husband give you food?"

Everyone looked at the two of them and found that Lin Xia was indeed a little thin compared to Zhao Hehua. They also felt that this was not good, as they thought that she had to eat more so that the child could grow up well.

They also used their experience to persuade Lin Xia to eat more.

Seeing that no one cared, Lin Xia knew why the doctor said last time that she usually doesn't tell pregnant women or their families to eat small meals frequently. The general concept now is that eating more will help one grow better.

She is not actually thin, she just looks thin compared to Zhao Hehua. Compared to before she became pregnant, she has gained a lot of weight. She is still thinking of finding a way to lose weight after giving birth.

She also eats a lot, and often gets food when she is hungry. There are also a lot of snacks at home, such as dried shrimps, dried fish, dried mangoes, dried pineapples, and seaweed. She often has extra meals in the afternoon.

Seeing that everyone agreed with her, Zhao Hehua became very proud.

Lin Xia's previous words were just a kind reminder, but seeing that she didn't listen, she had no choice but to respect and bless her.

As for what the other sisters-in-law said, Lin Xia just listened in one ear and let it out the other. The sisters-in-law only had what they thought were good intentions. After all, they were not her mother-in-law and could not do anything to her.

Fortunately, the sisters-in-law changed the topic soon and went to the vegetable market.

Lin Xia took the opportunity to separate from them, and Yang Hongmei followed Lin Xia and said, "You, don't listen to them. You have to listen to what the doctor says."

"Sister-in-law, I know." Lin Xia replied with a smile.

Wang Guilan was listening on the side and had some doubts in her mind. Could it be that eating too much during pregnancy is not good for you?

Lin Xia asked Wang Guilan to queue up at the pork stall while she went to buy other vegetables.

"What do you think of this piece of meat?" Wang Guilan picked up a piece of pork belly and showed it to Lin Xia. She didn't get the one with more fat.

Lin Xia was a little surprised. She didn't expect to be able to grab some pork belly. It would be delicious when made into braised pork. She had never grabbed any before.

“That’s great.”

The three of them went to the seafood stall again. Thinking of the dishes for dinner, Lin Xia bought a lot of things, which stunned Wang Guilan. The big sister selling seafood saw Lin Xia and missed her.

After saying a few words of hello, Lin Xia went to the fruit stall again and bought some fruits before going home.

Zhou Zheng and Song Yu followed Lu Yuxiu home and saw coconuts all over the floor.

Lu Yuxiu opened a fresh coconut for each of them, and when they finished drinking, he said, "Let's get to work first."

After that, he demonstrated to the two of them. Lu Yuxiu asked them to chop first, and he went to the next door to borrow a millstone from Wu Deye.

After hearing so many procedures, the two looked at each other, feeling that they had been cheated.

"Do you think Lu Yuxiu did this on purpose?" Zhou Zheng asked Song Yu. He was wondering why he started talking about work on the way, and it turned out he was waiting here.

Song Yu also felt that Lu Yuxiu had bad intentions, but when he thought about the food, he felt that it was not so bad.

Dealing with coconuts may seem complicated, but it's actually not difficult, it's just a tedious task.

But in order to eat, you still have to work!

The little guy was also holding the jar and drinking coconut juice, watching the two uncles working with the coconuts, and watching curiously.

Song Yu looked at the cute little girl and teased her with evil intentions, "Who is the boss in your family?"

"What does Lord mean?" An An didn't quite understand what Lord meant, so she asked back while blinking her big eyes.

"It's just... well, generally speaking, who listens to whom?" Song Yu thought for a long time and changed the way he asked the question.

"I listen to my mother!" An An knew it and answered by raising his little hand.

Zhou Zheng glanced at Song Yu, but couldn't get to the point after a long while, so he asked the little guy softly, "Who washes the dishes in your family?"
