Chapter 239 Becoming Famous
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief and congratulated Xu and Han with a smile.
Han couldn't wait to ask, "Doctor, how are my daughter and granddaughter doing?"
Doctor Li waved his hand, "It's fine! Take good care of the baby during the confinement period. There should be no problem. I just held the baby and estimated that it weighs about five kilograms, which is not light for twins. Everything is fine."
Han was completely relieved after hearing what Doctor Li said. She held onto Xu's hand and cried with joy, "I haven't been eating or sleeping well these days. Every time I close my eyes, I think about Xiaotai giving birth. Now I feel relieved! May God bless you, may our ancestors bless you!"
"You are not the only one like this. I worry every day as well. Childbirth is dangerous for women, and it's twins at that. I was scared to death! Fortunately, fortunately! Our Xiao Tai is a lucky one. Not only did she give birth safely, but she also gave birth to twins. This can be considered as expanding Chen Yi's family! My family has raised a lot of chickens and ducks. Originally, I wanted to give them to my daughter-in-law for nourishment. Now I will give them to Xiao Tai first, and I will raise more later." Mrs. Xu was very excited and wanted to send all the good things over.
Qi Yan and Wei Daya smiled at each other and said, "Mom, we can just kill the chickens and ducks. There's no need to rush to raise them."
Their family now has nearly a hundred chickens and ducks. They can't collect all the eggs every day, so killing some can reduce their burden.
Han was very pleased to see that Xu's family treated Su Tai so kindly.
She made the decision on Su Tai's behalf and thanked the villagers who came to help, and then went into the house to see Su Tai and the child.
Cao and Wu stayed in the room, waiting for Su Tai to wake up and making sure she was okay before going back.
The three of them talked in low voices and dozed off unknowingly.
It was already the middle of the night when Su Tai woke up. The room was very quiet and she could vaguely see two children in the cradle. As soon as she moved, Han woke up.
"How do you feel? Are you feeling uncomfortable anywhere?" Han looked at Su Tai nervously.
Su Tai shook her head, her stomach growling, "Hungry"
"Wait a minute. There's chicken soup in the pot, and some fresh goat's milk with sugar. I'll get it for you."
Han left in a hurry, and Cao and Wu also woke up.
The two of them took turns explaining the situation to her, then checked her body, and after confirming that she was fine, they were ready to leave.
Su Tai quickly handed the bag of silver she had prepared in advance to Cao's hand, and said earnestly: "Thank you for your hard work again this time. I'm afraid you have been worrying a lot about the two children. I'm tired now, so don't be polite to me. I will thank you properly after I am out of confinement."
"Oh! Look at what you said! Okay! Then I won't be polite to you. We will come to help again when the baby is one month old." Cao took Wu out and said hello to Han before returning home.
After returning home, Cao gave the purse to Wu.
Wu quickly opened it and counted it carefully, and said excitedly: "Mother, there are ten taels of silver here! Xiaotai is so generous! She gave so much even though Shen Yi is not here."
Cao was also a little surprised, but then she understood a little and sighed, "The child also disagrees. Seeing that the strawberries and watermelons in the field are about to be harvested, he should work harder in the future."
"Don't worry, mother. Your daughter-in-law understands." Mrs. Wu said happily.
The next day, everyone in Shenjia Village knew that Su Tai had given birth to twins, a boy and a girl, to Shen Yi, and they all came to watch the fun, saying they wanted to share in the good fortune.
Han was busy taking care of Su Tai and the children and had no time to spare, so Xu's family had to entertain them.
The news spread quickly, and the Wei family was the first to come to congratulate and brought a lot of good things.
Xu was somewhat helpless, "Mother-in-law, the child hasn't had his full moon banquet yet, why are you in such a hurry?"
Liu Jinhua looked at the twins eagerly, and was extremely happy. "I couldn't sit still after hearing the news. We are busy celebrating the baby's full moon, and we can't spare the time! We might as well come over now to enjoy them! I prepared a piece of silk for the children, and a pair of silver bracelets for each of them, specially made."
This move is no less than when Wei Daya gave birth to her son.
Xu was surprised.
Liu Jinhua explained: "Shen Yi saved our old man back then, so he is our family's great benefactor. Later, when we left the mountain, it was Shen Yi who provided money and effort. Otherwise, our family would not be able to live the good life we have today. In addition, we have to rely on Xiao Tai's help to sell fruits, so the gift must be a bit more generous."
I also said this to my granddaughter.
Xu nodded repeatedly, "That's true! Speaking of summer harvest, have any merchants visited you to inquire about it this year? Also, are you still planting apples in your village this year?"
Ringo's presence was not a good thing for them, as everyone was staring at him.
Liu Jinhua shook her head seriously, "The people who planted apples almost starved to death last year. Who would dare to plant that stuff easily? But they didn't throw away the fruit seedlings. Instead, they planted them in the wasteland behind the mountain. Every household marked out their own land and planted them and left them alone.
My old man said that we can't take advantage of others, but we can't suffer losses either, so he also got involved, got a piece of wasteland, bought some apples from the villagers and planted them.
He said that if the apples didn't bear fruit, our loss wouldn't be too big, and if they did bear fruit, we could still make some money, and there's also the wasteland, the land is what's important.
Anyway, I don't understand, so let him do whatever he wants! This year, we'll send the fruits to Xiaotai after we harvest them. She said she has arranged with the merchants in advance and someone will buy them."
Xu nodded repeatedly, "That's right, we have to send some of our fruits over when the time comes."
As the two of them were whispering, more and more people came to watch the fun and send gifts. Even the town official and Ma Xingteng sent people to send gifts, and they were all valuable things.
The story of Su Tai giving birth to a boy and a girl spread wider and wider, and became more and more exaggerated.
Naturally, people in Ximen Village also heard the news.
Gao Zhi's wife, Liu, came back from outside and immediately complained to him, "Now everyone is talking about the girl from the Su family in Dongmen Village who gave birth to twins. I heard that the birth was very smooth, the children are healthy, and both mother and child are safe. It can be seen that she is really blessed. Xiong Kai's mother is regretting it to death now. When I passed by the Mo family just now, there was still a commotion over there!"
"What are you fussing about? What's there to fuss about?" Gao Zhi frowned in disgust.
But he was the village chief and he couldn't just ignore it.
Liu sat down on a stool, picking vegetables while saying: "What else can you make a fuss about? What kind of married girl would live in her parents' home and eat and drink for free and still be picky? Mo Chunxiang's husband is not dead yet, but she has left her son to be raised by her mother-in-law. Not only does she not help with the housework, but she also feels at ease going back to her parents' home to enjoy herself. Her mother-in-law can't control her, and her sisters-in-law can't tolerate it.
Before, because of that crazy Guan, the two daughters-in-law had been tolerant of Mo Chunxiang in everything, which actually encouraged her arrogance. She even instigated her mother to ask for good things. Now her two sisters-in-law couldn't sit still anymore, and they started quarreling!
Hey! You said it's great to have a harmonious village, everyone works together and can always live a good life, but how come our village is like a pile of scattered sand, unable to come together! Is there something wrong with the Feng Shui?"
