“Besides, you see, we still have to look after the children at home.

It’s so nice to live in the village. Children can go out and play as they please, and adults can have their hands free to do things.

I wouldn't dare do that here. If the child runs away, it would be difficult to find him.

Don’t be fooled by the cleanliness of the city. Everything costs money. Even a scallion costs money.

"It's great to be in the village, and we even have our own plots of land. At least we don't have to worry about vegetables every year," Xiangxiu said as she sat aside.

"That's true." The third son's wife nodded. It's pretty good to be like this in the village.

No, I almost forgot why I came here.

She gently stroked her belly with her hands and smiled happily.

Then he picked up the bowl and drank the water, “Sister-in-law, you’re really wasting money. I still have to make sugar water for you.

It just so happens that the doctor told me to take good care of my body and get more nutrition."

Xiangxiu probably knew the reason for her visit and asked, "What's wrong with my sister-in-law?"

"Nothing much, just that I'm pregnant and I felt nauseous the past couple of days, so I went to see the barefoot doctor in the village.

He said she was pregnant and was two months pregnant. She touched her belly and smiled sheepishly.

"Oh, that's a great thing! Congratulations to my sister-in-law." Xiangxiu said with a smile.

Two months ago, my second sister-in-law was found to be pregnant, and now my third sister-in-law is also pregnant. My mother-in-law will be very busy next year.

"It's not that I don't have experience, so I came to learn from my eldest sister-in-law." The third daughter-in-law said embarrassedly.

"What experience do I have? It's just like that. Once the baby is born, everything will happen naturally.

Besides, isn't mom next door? If you don't understand something, just ask mom directly. "Xiangxiu said.

Anyway, children just eat, drink, defecate and urinate. You will know all these things when the child is born.

As for seeing a doctor when you are sick, I don’t know anything about it.

"Then sister-in-law, should we prepare something for giving birth, such as baby clothes, diapers, etc.?" asked the third son's wife.

"If you really need these, you can cut up your old clothes, wash them well, and preferably iron them in boiling water.

You can prepare more diapers for your child, and also prepare several sets of clothes for your child.

"It was early spring then, so it took a long time to dry. But children grow up quickly, so we need to prepare for them as they grow older," Xiangxiu said.

"Sister-in-law, can you give me two sets of those Huan Huan Le clothes? Look, they are too big to wear them now.

You know how hard it is to get fabric these days, and we don’t have any money in the countryside.” The third son’s wife said embarrassedly.

"Wait a minute, I'll get you two sets." Xiangxiu went into her bedroom, rummaged for a while, and took out two sets of small clothes.

"Thank you, sister-in-law." The third daughter-in-law happily took the clothes. "Sister-in-law, can you do me another favor?

You also know that my parents' family is unreliable. When I give birth to a baby, I must have brown sugar during the confinement period.

Can you lend me some brown sugar? Sugar coupons are fine too."

"Brown sugar is a hot commodity. Even if you have a ticket now, you may not be able to buy it!" Xiangxiu said.

"It doesn't matter, I can buy it." The third son's wife said mysteriously. "I have a good relationship with a girl at the town supply and marketing cooperative. As long as she has tickets, she can save some for me."

After saying that, he looked at Xiangxiu with anticipation.

"Okay then, I think I still have two taels of sugar tickets. I'll go find them for you." Xiangxiu said.

"Thank you, sister-in-law. You are so kind. I said that there is no sister-in-law better than you in the whole village, no, in the whole city.

I'll have Dashu send some over to you after the vegetables are harvested in a few days." The third son's wife said happily after hearing this.

Then the nice words just came out as if they were free.

"Okay, you're the only one who talks too much." Xiangxiu handed her the candy ticket.

"Well, sister-in-law, it's getting late, so I'll go back first. If I go back late, I'm afraid I'll miss the bus and have to stay here with you all night." After getting the tickets and clothes, the purpose of this time was achieved.

"Sister-in-law, I'll come to see you next time." After saying that, she walked out in a hurry, not looking as delicate as when she first came.

"Slow down, don't be in a hurry. If you miss the bus, just come back. Don't fall." Xiangxiu was a little worried when she saw her fast pace.

"Okay, I got it." Soon the man went downstairs and walked towards the main road.

"Your sister-in-law is quite interesting!" Song Jinxiu said.

“Nothing serious is wrong with me, I just like to take advantage of others, but I can’t stand being wronged.

I guess she started thinking about it because she saw me giving two sets of clothes to her second brother and his wife last time.

You don’t know, we separated last year. She immediately bought cloth and made two new sets of clothes for the couple with the money.

My mother was so angry that she almost chased her and beat her up." Xiangxiu said with a smile.

"It sounds like there's no problem." Song Jinxiu said.

“There are only a limited number of cloth coupons in the countryside each year, and since it wasn’t the time to issue them at that time, I must have paid a high price for them.

"My mother is really worried about her money. She has saved it for most of her life, but she doesn't want to spend it on food or clothes," Xiangxiu said.

"Tsk tsk tsk, come to think of it, I am indeed a little angry." Song Jinxiu said.

"My third sister-in-law is also a genius. Seeing that my mother-in-law was so angry, she was a little scared, so she ran to get some cloth and made a shirt for my parents-in-law and me.

You don't know, when my mother-in-law received the clothes, she was really upset. She felt bad for her money, but was also happy that her third daughter-in-law was willing to spend it. "These are the complaints my mother-in-law made to her mother.

Then my mother told me about it.

"So, your third sister-in-law is a pretty good person," said Song Jinxiu.

"Hahahaha! I always said she was someone who would never suffer any loss. For a long time afterwards, she visited my mother.

If I wanted something or liked something, I would just use sweet words and coax it from my mother-in-law.

If we weren't eating together now, I doubt she would still go to my mother-in-law's house to eat every day." Xiangxiu found it very funny when she heard her mother say that.

"This is pretty good, right?" Song Jinxiu felt that this was much better than some of the best products.

"Yes, she's not bad. My second sister-in-law is different. She likes to live her own life behind closed doors. Don't take advantage of her, and she won't take advantage of you either.

Her family's conditions were quite difficult, and she had many sisters. She was sold here by her parents, so..." Xiangxiu was not very clear about the specific situation.

Anyway, after my second brother's wife got married, she stopped having any contact with her parents' family. I heard that she gave a large betrothal gift. Since my second brother chose her himself, the other party asked for a huge sum of money.

Fortunately, everyone gets along well after I got married.

But think about it, it seems like the three brothers chose their own wives!

My third brother and his wife are from the next village, very close, just across a big road.

I don’t know how they knew each other.
