An Hongdou died, but then she came back to life, bringing a spatial dimension filled with billions of supplies as she transmigrated to the 1970s, becoming a dark-skinned, chubby, ugly country bumpk...
Fortunately, after listening to Ande's explanation, most people felt that it made sense.
Building the road is not without benefits for them. Now that the land has been divided, the grain they harvest next year will be theirs. Whether they go to the town to pay public grain or sell grain, having a wide and flat road is better than the dangerous small road they have now.
There were a few rebellious people who disagreed, but the money was in Andelai's hands, and when most people agreed, their objections were not that important.
As for causing trouble, the land had just been divided and Ande's reputation was still there, so few people dared to cause trouble.
After dividing the land, Brother An and Brother Four left. As for their land, it was given to Brother An and Brother Two to cultivate, so it was not considered abandoned.
An Hongdou's belly started to bulge relatively early, and it was already very obvious when she was 5 months old.
While sleeping, Chen Xiangzhi gestured at her belly and said, "Wife, I see that your belly is no smaller than when you were pregnant with Dabao and the other three. Do you think it's not the same baby?"
An Hongdou laughed at him for thinking too much, "This is giving birth to a baby. You think it's giving birth to piglets? There are always multiple babies in a litter. You should be thankful that you can give birth to triplets. You want to have more babies, but it's not so unrealistic even if you dream."
Shen Xiangzhi was not angry when she confronted him, but he still felt from the bottom of his heart that with such a big belly, there must be more than one baby.
Since they have already given birth to triplets, it means that they both have this gene. Why can't they have another set of triplets or twins?
Although he thought so in his heart, he did not say it out loud, but said: "Tomorrow is Sunday, let's go to the hospital for another check-up?"
"What are you checking?" There was no such thing as a prenatal checkup at this time. An Hongdou asked him, "You don't really think there's more than one baby in my belly, do you?"
"No, it's just a routine check-up to see if the baby is growing well. If he is, we will feel relieved." Shen Xiangzhi coaxed her with a smile.
An Hongdou thought that what he said made sense.
If this happened in later times when medicine was more advanced, prenatal checkups would have been done one after another. But now, few people go to the hospital from pregnancy to delivery.
"Okay, it's better to go for a check-up. However, should we ask Fourth Sister-in-law if she wants to go?" She suddenly remembered that Zhou Qingcao got pregnant only two months later than her, and had never been to the hospital once.
"Then let's go and ask them tomorrow morning. Whether to go or not depends on their own opinion." Shen Xiangzhi said as he covered her belly and lay down.
After turning off the lights, the room fell into darkness and they gradually fell asleep.
Early in the morning, Chen Xiangzhi asked Mrs. An to ask Zhou Qingcao.
But she didn't plan to go.
There are few people in cities who go to hospitals to give birth, let alone in rural areas.
It's not easy to make money, so she wants to save as much as possible.
Unlike her brother-in-law, the man in her family does hard work and earns every penny with sweat, so he naturally has to think more before spending money.
This is how it is in this era, and An Hongdou can't force her.
So after breakfast, Shen Xiangzhi considerately took a soft cushion and put it on the back seat of the bicycle, and took An Hongdou to the hospital.
I was full of hope when I went there, but when I came out I felt dizzy and like I was dreaming. Every step I took felt like I was walking on cotton.
"Wife, did you hear what the doctor said?" Shen Xiangzhi asked.
An Hongdou rolled her eyes at him in annoyance, "Xiangzhi Chen, how many times have you asked this? Are you going to stop?"
"Hehehehe..." Chen Xiangzhi laughed foolishly, and really looked back at her like a fool, "I told you last night that it wasn't a child, but you still didn't believe it. You believed the doctor's words, right?"
I feel so awesome. I didn’t have this feeling when I first made money.
The doctor said that his wife was pregnant with two babies and asked her to take good care of the fetus.
An Hongdou thought that she should be happy too.
If others want to have five children, they have to get pregnant and give birth for several years, but she did it in two years.
Moreover, having two children this time should satisfy their wish for many children and grandchildren, so they don't have to worry about asking her to have another child all the time.
When they got home, Mrs. An asked them, "How was the examination? What did the doctor say? Is the baby in your belly okay?"
The joy on Shen Xiangzhi’s face was obvious, “Mom, the doctor said Hongdou is pregnant with twins.”
Mrs. An seemed much calmer. After all, she already had a third child. But she was still very happy in her heart and urged him, "Then why are you still standing there? Hurry up and tell your grandfather and the others the good news. This will make your in-laws very happy!"
Of course, Mrs. An was also happy. After all, everyone believed that having many children and grandchildren was a blessing.
In fact, what I was thinking in my heart was.
The Shen family looked down on Hongdou. If he married another woman, even if she was of equal social status, could she give birth to so many grandchildren for their family?
First it was triplets, and now it’s twins. This is a blessing that many people would wish for!
An Hongdou was really too calm. Seeing that his mother-in-law was happier than himself, Shen Xiangzhi felt like he had finally found a confidant. "I'll call them now. Mom, we've been out for so long, and Hongdou is hungry. Can you please get her something to eat first?"
"Okay, I'll go right away." Old Mrs. An went to the kitchen happily, even her steps were like the wind.
An Hongdou looked at the two men, who had arranged everything for themselves with every word, and felt helpless.
They were all so happy and treated her like a porcelain doll, so she just enjoyed this blessing reluctantly.
Thinking about it in my heart, I burst out laughing.
People say that a lifetime of being a nanny can earn you a 10-month job as a queen. Although she doesn't want to be a nanny for a lifetime, she wants to be a queen for these 10 months.
Seeing An Hongdou sitting alone on the sofa and laughing happily, Shen Xiangzhi was satisfied.
He just said it.
He was so happy when the doctor told him that she was pregnant with twins that he couldn't stop smiling. But how come she was so calm without any change in expression? Look at her, she had been pretending to be calm all the way, but now she couldn't help herself.
Shen Xiangzhi's joyful voice came into the phone, and not long after, both Mr. Shen and Grandma Su came.
Especially Grandma Su, who stared at An Hongdou's belly and cheered continuously.
As for Shen Wanhua, he also came specially the next day. He didn’t come with Mr. Shen because he had something to do yesterday and was delayed.
Zhou Qingcao also came over and looked at An Hongdou's belly with envy, "Little sister, how great it would be if I were as lucky as you, I could have as many babies at a time, so I wouldn't have to carry them one by one like this, which is not painful enough!"
"Fourth sister-in-law, you envy me now, but you won't be envious when the baby comes. Not to mention how uncomfortable it is to have several babies at a time, it's also very dangerous..." An Hongdou shut up in time. She was pregnant with two babies again this time, so she should stop saying such bad things.
If it comes true, I will be in big trouble!
