Cui Ying hesitated for a while, but finally sighed and expressed his concerns and problems.
"Well, your aunt was injured in the early years and couldn't have children, so we gave up the idea. Later, you took care of her body, but your aunt felt that at her age, having another child would make people laugh at her."
Once you have said the first sentence, the following sentences will not be that difficult.
"Uncle Cui, why bother about the opinions of outsiders? You should consider the issue from your own perspective. Do you really need it? After all, when you are old, those who gossip about you will have children all over the place, but for you and my aunt... it's hard to say."
Everyone understands this truth, but the shackles of this era are too heavy, and those who can truly walk out of it really need some perseverance...
"I can tell from the looks of it that you're going to meet my parents. Otherwise, you wouldn't be able to say such things."
"Granny Cui is also worried about you and your aunt. If you and your aunt feel that you are not yet able to raise a child, I would not advise you. After all, everyone has their own way of life. If you give up having children because you are afraid of what others will say, then I don't agree."
"I understand. Come back, I'm trying to persuade your aunt."
It was not difficult for Ming Leyao to hear from Cui Ying's words that the couple was not opposed to having children. The only thing they cared about was the neighbors around them. There were many idle people in the world, and wherever there were people, there would be gossip. Sometimes you just had to let it go.
At noon, Ming Leyao did not choose to have lunch with Cui Ying. Instead, she went to a state-owned restaurant and ordered a bowl of shredded pork noodles. After eating, she walked back under the sun.
It was freezing cold in Qiping County in February, but fortunately there was no wind today and the sun was exceptionally bright. After walking for a while, my body felt slightly warm.
Today Ming Leyao was wearing a dark blue coat, black high cotton boots, and a floral hairpin bought for her by Fu Wencheng. Her fair face was a little red from the cold, making her look particularly beautiful.
As soon as I entered the village, I saw the long-missed team leader Pang Jianyuan. He was standing at the entrance of the village, talking to his three sons.
"Captain uncle?"
"Hey? Le Yao? You're back?"
"Yeah, you guys are..."
"It's not the twelfth day of the first lunar month anymore. Those guys should go to work or school. I think we should all leave on this day so they can have some company."
"Sister Leyao, your clothes are really beautiful."
He Dan, Pang Jianyuan's eldest daughter-in-law, quietly approached Ming Leyao, looked at her clothes with bright eyes, and wanted to touch them, but then she remembered that her hands were covered with calluses, and what if they were damaged, so she withdrew her hand.
"Sister-in-law, this is a woolen coat. I know a lot of good styles. When you have saved enough cloth, buy it and I will teach you how to make it."
"Really? You can make this coat?"
"Of course, as long as you have a sewing machine."
"Yes, yes, yes, it just happens that I didn't have the cloth coupons during the New Year, and I didn't know what to buy. Now I know. When I get off work, I'll go to the city's supply and marketing cooperative to see if I can buy this cloth."
"Okay, come back to me then."
"Okay."
After saying hello to a few people, Ming Leyao waved and walked towards her home. She met many people along the way, young wives, girls waiting to be married, and older women. It was their first time to see this kind of woman wearing clothes with a fitted waist and naturally drooped shoulders. There was curiosity in their eyes. Those who had a good relationship with Ming Leyao came up to her boldly and asked her about it. Ming Leyao generously shared her experiences with everyone.
When she was almost at the door of her house, she felt a malicious gaze. She quickly turned around and looked behind her, but didn't see anyone, which made her a little confused.
Could it be...
Did I see it wrong? ?
Logically speaking, it shouldn't be the case. Those who have bad intentions towards me are just those few people. Basically, we have dealt with everything that can be dealt with. Even Ming Hongdou, Ming Sishu personally sent her to jail. The Ming family's old house has lost so many people that it can't even jump around. I heard that they have been very honest recently...
Unable to figure out who had such malicious intentions towards her, Ming Leyao decided not to think about it anymore. Whoever she loved was fine. In the face of absolute strength, these shady little thoughts could not withstand a blow.
After entering the house, Ming Leyao took out some hot water that had been prepared long ago from the space and began to clean. The house had not been occupied for nearly half a month, and there was no dust at all. It must have been Aunt Ming Si and Ming Xiaojiang who came to help take care of it.
And my dog, I don't know if he has caused any damage in Aunt Ming Si's house during this period...
After thinking about it, I decided to go over and take a look later.
After cleaning the house inside and out, Ming Leyao threw all the quilt covers into the space to wash them, changed into clean ones, then turned around and went to the main room to light the stove and boil a pot of water.
Before she left, she gave all the meat to Uncle Ming. As for the vegetables that could be stored for a long time, there were still quite a few at home, and the rest were some pickles and condiments.
Fortunately, she carried a bag when she came back, and no one knew what was in her bag, so it was still possible to take out some dishes from the space.
He entered the kitchen and first took out a piece of pork belly, then a piece of lean meat and a whole chicken, and put them all in the basket hanging from the ceiling.
He took a look at the seasonings in the cupboard, added some of those that were less, and after arranging them neatly, he took out a roll of noodles, added a small handful of fried egg sauce, and mixed it with the noodles to eat.
After dinner, he took out a cloth bag from the space and went to his fourth uncle's house.
From a long distance away, I could hear the barking of a dog in my fourth uncle's yard, howling and whining, as if a child was eager to express something.
"Dog, be good, sister will be back soon."
Ming Xiaoxue looked at the listless dog with some distress, wishing she could hold it and go find Sister Le Yao right away...
The dog lay there, whimpering. Suddenly, its drooping head suddenly raised up, its eyes staring at the door, and its tail was shaking like a Hot Wheels, almost emitting sparks.
"Dog? Could it be that Sister Le Yao is back?"
Ming Xiaoxue immediately stood up and rushed to the door. Sure enough, Ming Leyao was slowly approaching her house. Before she could rush out, a small shadow swooped out from under her feet...
It was also accompanied by the sounds of "Ahhh, woooo, woooo, woooo...."
"Dog?"
Ming Leyao squatted down and opened her arms to welcome the running dog. She originally thought that this guy would go directly into her arms, but who knew...
Haha, the dog is still the same dog.
He ran very fast, and started to brake not far away from himself, and finally rolled over..
duang~~~
Its white belly was exposed, its pink tongue stuck out, and it was panting.
