There are three women in the family now, and they can all do needlework. They start working in the morning and evening, and by the evening of the second day, they had made two sets of cotton coats and trousers. As for bedding, Gu Changqing brought some ready-made ones from outside. Li Qiulan was very grateful, and on the third day, accompanied by Gu Changqing, she delivered the cotton coats, trousers and bedding to her parents.

The other elderly people were so envious. Why didn’t they have such wonderful daughters?

Unfortunately, neither Li Qiulan nor Gu Changqing have the ability to help more people, and can only take care of their own relatives to the best of their ability.

The Li family was originally worried that these things would cause dissatisfaction among the village cadres, but they didn't expect that nothing happened for many days. Later, Li Xiuming learned that it was Gu Changqing who contacted people from the Revolutionary Committee, otherwise they would really be worried.

Li Qiulan lived in Bai Ruozhen's house for more than a month. When Bai Ruozhen was out of confinement, it was time for her to return to the provincial capital. After all, it was already the twelfth lunar month, and she was worried about leaving Bai Jiansheng and several children at home alone. She couldn't bear to leave her parents and brother and sister-in-law, but she still missed her home.

Before leaving, Gu Changqing and Bai Ruozhen repeatedly promised that they would visit the Li family often. Only then did Li Qiulan suppress her reluctance and leave Yancheng.

After Bai Ruozhen finished her confinement, the two brothers Jiaozi and Doubao became fairer and more tender. Although Bai Ruozhen's breast milk was not enough, with the help of the super expensive brand milk powder bought by Gu Changqing, the two little guys' faces became plump as if they were puffed up.

Qiu Lanying and Aunt Gu each held one child and fed them formula, leaving Bai Ruozhen, the biological mother, unable to help. Wang Jun joined in the fun, bringing Peanut over to play during the day. It wasn't until the Little New Year approached that the family packed up and prepared to return to Xiahe Village for the New Year.

Unfortunately, Gu Changqing became busy at the end of the year and could not go back with them.

When we returned to Xiahe Village, the New Year atmosphere was already strong. After a year of hard work, the villagers saved some money and went to the provincial capital to buy cotton, cloth, or some candy to prepare for the New Year.

However, Bai Ruozhen didn't have to worry about these things, because Aunt Gu also returned to Xiahe Village with him, so Bai Ruozhen's daily task was still to feed the child, and other things such as taking care of the child's clothes were done by someone else.

Bai Ruozhen felt embarrassed to move in, but Aunt Gu refused to let her get involved, so she couldn't do anything she wanted to do.

Just after the Chinese New Year, Gu Xiaoli also returned from vacation. Bai Ruozhen looked at her expression carefully and felt that she looked much better now. She guessed that it might be related to Li Xiuming.

Li Xiuming is her cousin and a nice person. If Li Xiuming and Xiaoli really get together, Bai Ruozhen would actually be very happy. However, she also doesn't want to interfere with Xiaoli, who she likes. She hopes Xiaoli can make the best choice.

Gu Xiaoli also doesn't go out. She stays at home every day to help take care of the children. She especially likes Doubao because, compared to Jiaozi, Doubao looks more serious, but he is naturally cheerful and has beautiful curved eyes.

What Gu Xiaoli didn't expect was that the person who proposed marriage came to her house as soon as she returned home.

Gu Xiaoli sat in Bai Ruozhen's room, listening to the laughter in the main room and frowned, "How annoying."

"What's so annoying?" Bai Ruozhen said as he quickly took the diaper and reached into the bed to change Doubao. "You're not a child anymore. It's normal to find a husband."

Gu Xiaoli pouted, "What's so good about getting married? You have to have children." She looked up at Bai Ruozhen and saw the faint smile on her face and asked, "Do you regret having children?"

Bai Ruozhen didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "Can I put it back if I regret it?"

"That's right." Gu Xiaoli sighed, "I think you're really scared about giving birth. If anything happens to you... I think I'll go with you a second time."

"Pah, don't talk nonsense." Bai Ruozhen scolded her, "We are all people who are favored by God. We will definitely live a long life."

Gu Xiaoli grinned, "Well, you will definitely live a long life."

She paused and said, "But I'm really afraid of giving birth."

"It's too early for you to think about these things now." Bai Ruozhen rolled his eyes at her. "You're not even in a relationship, but you're already thinking about getting married. Aren't you ashamed?"

Gu Xiaoli was lying on the kang teasing Doubao, "I will treat Doubao as my son from now on. Doubao, take care of your aunt in her old age."

Bai Ruozhen clapped her hands and said, "If you want a son, go give birth to one yourself."

Gu Xiaoli immediately pouts, "I don't want to have a baby. It's too painful. I'd rather not have one."

Bai Ruozhen smiled but said nothing. Before she got married, she had never thought she would have children. But after she got married and saw Li Aihong's child and Wang Jun's child, she couldn't wait to have a child. Now her wish came true and the child was born. Although the birth process was painful, after so much time had passed, she almost forgot how painful it was. She only remembered the unbearable pain. But if she really had to choose again, she would still choose to have a child.

It had nothing to do with pain or choice, she just wanted her own child.

And even though she knew it would be so painful, she still wanted to have another child, and this time she wanted a daughter.

However, she didn't say this out loud, because neither Gu Changqing nor Gu Xiaoli would agree, and she didn't want to have a baby right now, so it was better to keep this idea in her heart.

In the evening, Gu Changqing came back with two letters. "They were written by Liqiang and Mom."

Bai Ruozhen was surprised. She took it and opened Bai Liqiang's letter directly, because if it was not necessary, Bai Liqiang would not write to her alone. There must be something that her mother did not want to tell her, and Bai Liqiang needed to tell her.

In the letter, Bai Liqiang said that Bai Ruozhen was not only married but also had a child, and that she wrote back asking for money. Bai Jiansheng was already furious and got very angry at home. He also warned Li Qiulan not to send money to Bai Ruoxin anymore.
