Chapter 1174 You're being far too self-righteous.
Xiao's mother, who was dragged into the yard by Xiao's father, was still a little unhappy: "What kind of people are these? They always show off that he has three sons. So what if he has three sons? He doesn't even have a room for his sons' weddings. They had a huge fight over who ate an extra bite, and they still have the nerve to come here and brag about it."
As Mr. Xiao pulled the man into the house, he tried to comfort him, saying, "You know what kind of person Sister-in-law Liang is. It's not like she only brought up having three sons today. She usually doesn't think before she speaks. You really don't need to get angry with her. She probably isn't targeting you on purpose."
Miao Yiqiu understood now and followed her into the house, saying, "It's nothing, don't let it affect your son's food supply."
One sentence made Xiao's mother realize: "Yes, yes, Aunt Miao, you're right."
Xia Qiu and her family of three also brought things from their neighbor's house into the yard: "Grandpa."
Just as Grandpa Xiao finished putting down the vegetables, meat, and eggs he had bought, he saw Xia Qiu's family enter the yard: "You're back."
Qiu Shaofeng put the things he brought in the yard: "Grandpa, we brought two pheasants and a basket of eggs. Where should we put them?"
Just then, Miao Yiqiu came out of the house: "Oh, you're so thoughtful. Your mother was talking about you this morning."
Xia Qiu smiled and handed Junjun to Miao Yiqiu: "Auntie, please hold Junjun for me. I'm going inside to see my mom and brother."
Miao Yiqiu smiled and took the child from her: "Go on."
After saying that, she looked at Qiu Shaofeng, who was unable to enter the postpartum room, and said, "Just cut off the chicken's wings and put it in the chicken coop over there."
Grandpa Xiao had already taken out the scissors: "You've gone up the mountain?"
Qiu Shaofeng took the scissors and, while trimming the wings, replied somewhat awkwardly, "We didn't go deep into the mountains. We just set a few traps and dug a few pits halfway up the mountain, and we've had some success every now and then."
Old Master Xiao had heard Xia Qiu mention before that although they hadn't separated their households, each branch owned everything except for the work points from the land. Looking at his wife's great-grandson, he thought, "It's good to improve our lives, but we must be careful."
Qiu Shaofeng was touched that the old man didn't object but instead cared about his safety. He said, "Grandpa, don't worry, I will do what I can and won't do anything that will worry Xia Qiu and you."
After Xia Qiu came into the room, she first greeted Xiao's mother, and then stared at her younger brother who was sleeping with his eyes closed: "Mom, how much does my little brother weigh? He looks much bigger than when Junjun was born."
Xiao's mother said with a proud look, "Your brother ate so many good things in his belly, so naturally he grew strong and healthy. Even the doctor said that it is rare for a newborn to weigh 7 pounds and 3 ounces these days."
However, thinking of the suffering she endured when giving birth to her son, she couldn't help but take a deep breath: "If Dujuan hadn't rushed over in time and brought in the ginseng nourishing water left by Chuxue, I don't know how much more suffering I would have endured."
When asked about Chuxue, Xia Qiu laughed and said, "We ran into my brother-in-law. He said Chuxue's train is today and she'll be back tomorrow afternoon."
When Xiao's mother heard that her second daughter would be back tomorrow, she was in a much better mood: "Your brother is so lucky. Chu Xue was away on a business trip for more than a month, and now, as soon as he was born, she came back."
Xia Qiu didn't understand at first. What did the fact that her younger brother was born into good fortune have to do with her second sister?
Then Xiao's mother continued, "I heard that crucian carp soup is the best for promoting lactation, so your grandparents won't have to queue up at the market early in the morning anymore."
Xia Qiu's smiling face suddenly lost its smile: "Mom, it's true that Chu Xue is quite capable, but you're being too self-righteous."
