Mu Yi'an, a teacher at an agricultural school, in her thirties, unmarried, nearly expelled from her family by her biological mother.
Jiang Shuyun, a high school political teacher, in her ...
"Yes, your father's generation had twins, a boy and a girl, but unfortunately, the girl died young."
Mu's mother had only heard about this from her mother-in-law, so she didn't know the specifics.
Looking at her second sister-in-law's belly, Mu Yi'an thought about the precautions she should take when pregnant with twins in her previous life, but unfortunately, she didn't come up with anything. At that time, she didn't plan to get married or have children, so she didn't pay attention to information related to maternal and infant health.
"Second sister-in-law, did the doctor say what precautions to take?"
"Eat smaller, more frequent meals, and be as active as possible. Don't eat too much, so the baby won't be too big and make childbirth difficult."
Second Sister-in-law Mu has a stable mindset. She knows some martial arts and is in good health. As long as she gets through the morning sickness, nothing else will be a problem.
Mu Yi'an and Mu Ersao exchanged red envelopes for each other's children, and the children also wished each other a Happy New Year. There were a total of eight children from the three families, not counting the two in Mu Ersao's belly, which was quite a large group.
Looking at the bunch of kids, Mu Yi'an thought about how the birth rate in her previous life was almost negative, and realized how different it was!
With someone looking after the children, Mu Yi'an and Jiang Shuyun went to talk to their eldest brother about planting watermelons, and their second brother also offered suggestions.
"After the third year of junior high, we're going to the prefectural city. Shuyun, why don't you come with us? We can learn about watermelon seeds."
Brother Mu and his family are going to the prefectural city to pay New Year's visits. After passing the imperial examination, Uncle Mu failed the exam repeatedly and eventually gave up. He then found a job in the prefectural city.
"Okay, I'll go with my older brother then."
Jiang Shuyun understood her brother-in-law's meaning: he not only wanted to learn about the watermelon seeds, but also wanted to make an appearance at Uncle Mu's place and strengthen their relationship. He could also ask Uncle Mu for guidance in his studies, since Uncle Mu was a scholar who had passed the imperial examinations.
The matter was settled. Mu Yi'an and the others would stay another night. Tomorrow, Jiang Shuyun would go to the city of her father's residence with her elder brother Mu and the others, while Mu Yi'an would take the children home.
