Yang Liu's due date is estimated to be around the end of April or the beginning of May, but according to those experienced people in the village, twins will most likely be born early.

After hearing this, she, the person involved, remained calm, but Chu Yue became extremely anxious and kept nagging about preparing everything needed for production early.

So now, in order to let her suffer less during childbirth, Chu Yue would accompany her after dinner every afternoon and take a walk in the yard, so that the childbirth would be easier.

Seeing him packing things for production in his room, Yang Liu smiled and said, "It's still early, why are you busy so early?"

Ever since he knew she was having two babies, he had to prepare double quantities of everything. Worried that she wouldn't have enough milk, he even had someone buy her two milk bottles in the capital.

We have quite a bit of malted milk and other things stored at home, enough to last us for a while.

Chu Yue carefully folded the prepared diapers and packages and put them away. Then he came over to help her sit down. "It's not too early. It's already March. It will be here in the blink of an eye. We should prepare early while we still have time."

The most important thing is to prepare now. He can take a look at it when he has nothing to do. He can also think about what is missing and make up for it when the time comes.

Yang Liu picked up a pair of tiger-head shoes and touched the pattern on them, her eyes full of tenderness. "This is what your grandmother made for the child. Besides these, they also sent a lot of other things. Do you think we should give some gifts in return?"

Of course, she definitely couldn't have imagined these interpersonal relationships, and it was her mother who reminded her of them.

"After all, my grandma is your grandma too, okay?" Chu Yue looked at her and said with some seriousness in his tone.

Yang Liu glanced at him, not wanting to dwell on such trivial matters. "Seriously, if we don't show any support, I'm afraid the old man will have a bad impression of me and think I'm ignorant."

"Don't worry, if I like it, they will definitely like it too. Besides, my grandma and the others are easy to get along with. You'll know when you meet them."

Seeing that she couldn't let it go, Chu Yue had to say, "How about this, when it rains, let Mom go to the mountains to pick more mushrooms, fungus, and bamboo shoots. When the time comes, dry them and send some to them so that they can also taste this kind of farm food."

“Wouldn’t that be too shabby?”

"No, my grandmother and her family also came from the countryside before. They must miss these things the most right now. I'm sure they will like you, don't worry."

Since Chu Yue had guaranteed that they would like it, Yang Liu no longer worried about it.

If it weren't for the fact that the magic tofu is difficult to transport, she would have wanted to make some for them to try.

However, even though she couldn't do this, she made some sweet potato flour and potato flour, and added some dried goods that her mother had picked up in the mountains during this period, and all the ingredients together made up a big bag.

Chu Yue rode his bike to send it over early in the morning, and also sent a photo of the two of them.

He also thought that when the baby was born, he would take a photo of the four of them as a family and send it together so that the two old people could see it and wouldn't worry about him.

Recently, the villagers have been busy irrigating crops. This is the highlight of the year and is directly related to the harvest at the end of the year, so everyone attaches great importance to it.

Yang Liu was home alone. Her mother had prepared all the dishes that needed to be fried before she went out in the morning. She just needed to heat them up.

It was almost noon, and seeing that her parents had not returned yet, she was just about to go out to check when she saw Chu Yue coming back.

"Why are you back at this time?"

Chu Yue helped her sit aside and said, "Our village is going to the neighboring village to discuss opening the sluice gates. The secretary said that if only a bunch of rough people like us go, it will cause trouble, so he asked Zhang Hongwei and I to go too. I came back to see you by the way."

"oh."

"Then go grab a steamed bun from the pot and eat it to fill your stomach. Who knows when you'll be back?"

Chu Yue went in, took a steamed bun, drank a few sips of water, and hurried out.

They didn't come back until dark.

Hearing the noise outside, I guess there are quite a few people going there this time.

As soon as he entered the room, Yang Liu came over to greet him and asked hurriedly, "How is it? Do they agree?"

Before Chu Yue could speak, Yang Guoqing was already furious and said, "What did you agree to? We almost didn't fight."

When he went there, he mentioned it to the secretary, saying that they were not going to fight, so there was no need to bring so many people.

That kind of occasion was a mess, and if anyone said something, it would definitely cause trouble. Sure enough, he was right.

Seeing his wife's curious face, Chu Yue slowly told her what had just happened.

Although Tian Shouyi has worked as secretary for many years, he always does things in the same old way and is somewhat stubborn.

And I don’t know if it’s because he’s been a leader for so long, but it seems like he’s a little arrogant in what he says and does now.

Especially last year, their village's harvest was far ahead of several nearby villages, and he became even more proud after being tricked by some people.

Today, when he went to discuss opening the floodgates with the leaders of the neighboring village, Tian Shouyi didn't know what was wrong with him. He offended them as soon as he opened his mouth.

They say their village is a model village, but if the harvest is affected due to insufficient water supply, it will be their fault.

The people from the neighboring village were already uncomfortable when they saw that they were arrogant and looked down upon when they asked others to do things for them. Then when they saw that he was threatening and intimidating them, they immediately lost their temper.

Last year, the harvest of the neighboring village was the lowest in the entire commune. Now Tian Shouyi is not fair and is stabbing people in the heart. It is strange that people can tolerate it.

In addition, both sides had hot tempers and would start fighting if they disagreed on a single word. If they had not been pulled apart early, the fight would have broken out long ago.

When they finally left, the people from the neighboring village said in unison that they would rather release the water than let them use it.

Seeing that there was no hope, everyone returned home in despair.

Otherwise, a fight would have broken out on the spot, and there would have been no room for maneuver.

Li Qiuhe saw her husband frowning, and then advised: "Don't be too anxious. You only talked to them once today. Maybe if you talk to them again, they will agree."

"Yes, Dad, don't worry too much. Liu Bei had to visit Zhuge Liang three times to invite him out of seclusion. You've only been there once, and you expect him to agree. That's too easy. Besides, good things take time. If you go a few more times, maybe he'll see your sincerity and agree."

Yang Guoqing knew that the mother and daughter were trying to comfort him, so he didn't refute them, but things were not that simple.

He thought that speaking out would only cause more trouble, so he didn't say anything more.
