Chapter 203 I laughed out loud
Thinking that the belly support belt was not difficult to borrow, Zhao Hehua should return it in two days at most. Lin Xia did not think much about it. She was busy drawing these two days and did not move much.
What Lin Xia wanted to draw was a baby stroller. Children in later generations can use a wide variety of things, such as walkers, strollers, and baby carriages. The cost of raising a child is really not low.
If it was just one child, Lin Xia wouldn't have been bothered, but for two children, she had to prepare in advance. It was okay when they were at the age of eating and sleeping, but it was the most tiring when they started learning to walk, so she had to prepare early.
The principle of the baby carriage is not difficult, at least simpler than a bicycle. Carpenter Wang has good workmanship skills, so Lin Xia still plans to ask him to help.
After three days, there was still no sign of Zhao Hehua, and Lin Xia thought she had not done a good job. One morning, on the way home after sending the little guy, Lin Xia ran into Zhao Hehua and her two sisters-in-law. They were carrying baskets in their hands and seemed to be going to buy vegetables.
When Zhao Hehua saw Lin Xia, she was stunned, and then her eyes looked a little guilty. Lin Xia did not miss this look. She squinted and looked at the belt Zhao Hehua was wearing. The small flower on the belt clearly told Lin Xia that yes, this was hers.
Because this cloth was sent by Lin's mother, the small floral patterns on it are not common. Although small floral patterns are pretty much the same these days, there are still some differences. At least the cloth from the textile factories in Beijing will not be circulated here, as Guangcheng has its own textile factories.
Oh my god, Lin Xia was so angry that she almost laughed. She shouldn't have been so nice to Zhao Hehua for the sake of the child. She thought Zhao Hehua had changed her temper. She overestimated Zhao Hehua.
"Xiao Xia, are you sending the child off?" A sister-in-law saw Lin Xia and greeted her.
Now everyone in the family quarters knows that Lin Xia takes good care of her children, and there are not many people who pick up and drop off their children every day.
"Yes, sister-in-law, are you going to buy vegetables?" Lin Xia responded with a smile. Because of greeting, several people stopped by the roadside to talk.
Zhao Hehua felt a little uneasy. Seeing Lin Xia talking to her sisters-in-law, she thought that she didn't remember her, so she didn't dare to say anything to her. She just stood aside quietly, waiting for people to forget about her.
"Hehua, what's wrong with you? Are you feeling uncomfortable in your stomach?" A sister-in-law asked with concern when she saw that she didn't say anything.
Zhao Hehua was suddenly concerned about him and cursed in her heart, thinking that what she feared would come true. She smiled unnaturally and said, "No."
But she didn't know that it was this uncharacteristic behavior that made it impossible to ignore her. After all, if a person who was usually noisy suddenly became quiet, it would only attract more attention.
Some people looked at Lin Xia and then at Zhao Hehua. They both got pregnant at about the same time, and now they were standing together, so it was inevitable that some people would compare them.
Zhao Hehua was extremely anxious and urged, "Let's go quickly. If we go too late there might not be any good food." She had a bad feeling if she stayed any longer.
"Don't worry, it's still early." He felt like chatting with his sister-in-law and didn't want to leave.
Zhao Hehua was very impatient and was about to ask to leave first, but someone else spoke first.
"Xiao Xia, you must be tired, right? Why don't you get a belt like the one worn by Hehua?" Seeing Lin Xia holding her waist with her big belly, the sister-in-law pointed at the belt on Zhao Hehua and gave a kind suggestion.
Zhao Hehua's bad premonition came true and her face froze. Now that the topic had come up, it was even more inconvenient for her to leave first.
"Yes, yes, look, it's really good that she put on this belt. Why didn't we think of it at that time? If we could have a belt like this, we wouldn't have to suffer so much." A sister-in-law envied.
"Why don't you go find your husband Chen and have another baby?" One of the sisters-in-law joked, making faces at her and Lin Xia couldn't help laughing.
"Go away, why don't you have a baby? Your husband Zhang is also very good." The sister-in-law who was teased was not shy at all and refuted it on the spot.
Lin Xia was shocked by the boldness and openness of these sisters-in-law. It was really eye-opening for her to see them making dirty jokes in public.
"The belt on her body is mine." Lin Xia glanced at Zhao Hehua, who looked unhappy, and said lightly.
"Ah?" One sister-in-law was a little surprised after hearing what Lin Xia said. When did Lin Xia and Zhao Hehua become so close? I haven't heard of it before?
Zhao Hehua's face froze. Just as she was about to speak, she heard someone ask, "Did you give it to her?"
"Lend it to her..."
"Haha...ha, I was just saying I would send it to you later." Zhao Hehua interrupted Lin Xia on the spot, fearing that she would say it out loud.
Lin Xia wasn't angry when she was interrupted, but her expression was neither smiling nor laughing, and the atmosphere suddenly became awkward.
Everyone looked around, and after considering the expressions of the two people, they suddenly fell silent. They looked at each other in confusion, and each of them knew in their hearts that something might have happened.
"Really? Then I'll go home and wait for you?" After a moment of silence, seeing that everyone understood, Lin Xia spoke with a faint expression.
"Okay...Okay." Zhao Hehua saw that the matter had not been fully discussed and she could not care what others would think, so she nodded hurriedly.
After Lin Xia greeted several sisters-in-law, she went straight home. If Zhao Hehua was smart, she would send her back obediently later. Of course, if she was not smart, Lin Xia would not mind helping her promote it in the family area.
When Zhao Hehua and the others saw Lin Xia leaving, they smiled awkwardly and stiffly changed the subject to talk about what vegetables they were going to buy today. Zhao Hehua was walking behind and was very angry. She wanted to drag her feet and not return the money. She was also prepared to use the excuse that hers were not well enough and continue dragging her feet when Lin Xia came to ask her for it.
I didn't expect to bump into Lin Xia today. How could it be such a coincidence? Could it be that Lin Xia was waiting for her?
Zhao Hehua thought about it and felt that she couldn't return the tape so easily. But she also felt that someone had just heard it and it would be bad if she didn't return it. Her eyes moved around and she was absent-minded when buying groceries.
Lin Xia didn't wait for Zhao Hehua to come back from changing things. She just lay on the sofa reading and drawing, feeling very fulfilled.
It was not until Wang Guilan had prepared lunch and Lin Xia was about to go pick up An An for dinner that she remembered that Zhao Hehua had not come. She sneered, thinking that this person really did not believe in evil.
There was no need to rush. Eating was the most important thing. Lin Xia took the little one to take a nap as usual and went to school. In the afternoon, when the sun was not very strong, Lin Xia went out wearing a hat.
She brought various dried fruits she had made and went to the homes of the sisters-in-law she met in the morning. One of the sisters-in-law was an expert at pickling sauerkraut, and Lin Xia planned to go and exchange some for it. Although the weather on the island was not cold, she wanted to eat pork, sauerkraut and vermicelli stew.
This is just one of the reasons, there is actually another reason.
