The man who wanted the egg back said this, and Jiang Xi didn't get annoyed. She smiled and handed the egg over: "Okay, Auntie, I'll give it to you."

The other party took the egg and ran away quickly as if she had escaped a scam. Before leaving, she didn't forget to say: "Why are you still standing there? Do you really think this little girl has any tricks?"

Although eggs are only three cents each, most families raise two chickens, and some families even secretly raise several chickens in their rooms. Two or three eggs are not a big deal, but you can't be cheated for nothing, right?

"Mrs. Zhang, what the hell do you mean?! My daughter-in-law is not lying!" Pei's mother, who was busy cooking, heard something strange outside and ran out to see what was happening. She was so angry that she took a spatula and tried to hit her: "My daughter-in-law is amazing, and you are just talking nonsense!"

The person called Mrs. Zhang was startled and quickly dodged and ran away.

After she left, Xisheng's mother followed her. Before she left, she deliberately sang loudly, "Hey, some people boast about their abilities, but now they've revealed their true colors. Fortunately, I didn't lose my eggs."

"Get lost! Who wants your little stuff?" Pei's mother scolded. Seeing that Xisheng's mother had already run away, she couldn't chase her out. She just grabbed a stone and threw it at her: "If you dare to come to my house again, I will beat you to death!"

The stone hit Xisheng's mother right on the butt.

"Wang Guizhi!" Xisheng's mother's face turned pale, and she turned around and cursed, wanting to fight with her.

But soon, Pei's father, who had just returned from work and was looking after his son, also noticed something was wrong and ran out. Although he was old, he had worked hard all year round and was quite muscular. His dark face glared, still quite fierce. He walked over and said in a rough voice, "What? Want to fight?"

Xisheng's mother was frightened. She snorted coldly and left with the egg in her hands.

With the first person, and then there was the trouble caused by Xisheng's mother.

The others who had only seen the doctor and received the prescription were also worried. They all came back and said with a wry smile, "Actually, my case is not a big deal. How about we just forget it and congratulate the military wife?"

Jiang Xi looked calm, and did not feel embarrassed by their betrayal. He still smiled and said, "Okay, you brought three eggs. Here you go."

"And here's yours, a bunch of vegetables, for you."

Every time he saw a patient, Jiang Xi would write it down in the notebook, return the things now, cross out some of them, take notes, and then look at the remaining people.

Two of them had back injuries and were made very comfortable by Jiang Xi's treatment. Now they don't feel any pain at all.

They had originally stayed to watch the excitement, but now being watched, they shook their heads quickly and consoled her: "He Jun's wife, we all felt it just now. You are a powerful person, and they are short-sighted. Don't think too much. We will still have to rely on you in the future."

"It's okay, I don't mind." Jiang Xi smiled. She really didn't mind. She had seen a lot of people like this when she was practicing medicine. Many of her colleagues shared their experiences with her, and she had encountered even more bizarre ones.

She doesn't care. This is just the beginning.

Anyway, she didn't suffer any loss, so the prescription and herbs were all taken back.

The other two also left, and the only outsiders left in the yard were Lu Xiufang and Pei Jianxiang.

Jiang Xi naturally looked at them: "What about you?"

Both of them felt a little embarrassed. They came here for a medical consultation, but who knew this oolong would happen. Although He Jun's wife was mistaken, she looked so calm and composed, and it didn't seem like she was really sick. They didn't know what to do for a moment.

Being watched at this time, Lu Xiufang quickly said: "We don't have to return it, we don't have to return it."

Seeing this, Jiang Xi didn't have to return the question, but she still said a few more words: "Whether you have your period or not is not the criterion for judging whether you are pregnant or not. Many women also have their period during pregnancy. You are indeed showing signs of pregnancy, and it should be one and a half months. The child is currently quite healthy, so your last period should have been just physiological bleeding."

"Is that so..." Lu Xiufang responded vaguely.

To be honest, she still had some doubts in her heart.

How could it be such a coincidence? After years of infertility, she suddenly twisted her waist and got pregnant?

She and her husband have been married for four years. Normal women can get pregnant within six months of marriage, or at least within two years, but they have not been pregnant for four years!

Her mother-in-law often mocked her as a hen that didn't lay eggs, which made her uncomfortable. Fortunately, her husband loved her, and after a quarrel, they were separated and sent out to live on their own. Life was really hard at the beginning, after years of accumulation, her mother-in-law was really cruel and didn't give them anything.

Just because they have no children, she doesn't deserve the money, and since her husband protects her, he naturally has no right to take the money either.

Because of these things, Lu Xiufen herself had given up hope of getting pregnant, and then someone told her, "You're pregnant."

How is that possible?

Not only her, Pei Jianxiang also has the same attitude.

Facing the sudden arrival of the "child", the couple just smiled, with a hint of bitterness in their calmness: "He Jun's wife, thank you very much, we will go back first."

Jiang Xi was helpless, but was afraid that they would take the wrong medicine, so he said, "You should go to the hospital for a check-up. If you are not pregnant, I will pay for the check-up."

The two were stunned: "Huh?"

She actually said that if she wasn't pregnant, she would pay for the test?!

Pei Jianxiang's disbelief was immediately alleviated after hearing this, and his honest face became a little more cautious: "He Jun's wife, are you serious? Are you really pregnant?"

Lu Xiufang also wanted to ask, but she was too excited at the moment and couldn't say it for a while. When she heard her husband asking, she nodded repeatedly.

Really pregnant?

The couple's gazes were visibly burning, and Jiang Xi smiled, "Really? But you should still go get checked, so you can rest assured. It shouldn't be expensive to just check whether you're pregnant or not."

Lu Xiufang's eyes turned red, and she couldn't express the excitement in her chest. She was about to get up and thank Jiang Xi, but when she got up, her waist hurt and her face suddenly twisted: "Hiss——"

"Hey, don't be so anxious, go slowly..." Pei Jianxiang quickly supported her, patted her forehead, and said, "Mrs. He Jun, did you just say that hot compress would be enough?"

"Yes, she needs to be taken care of. In her condition, she can't do heavy work anymore." Jiang Xi nodded and reminded.

"Okay, we will definitely not let her work. Let's go for a check-up tomorrow. No, forget it, let's go in the afternoon!" They both nodded, full of love for this child who came late for adultery. They supported each other, thanked Jiang Xi repeatedly, and then slowly went back.

Once Lu Xiufang and her husband left, there was no one else left in the Pei family.

After Xishengniang's commotion, all the people who came to Lu Xiufang left, and the others who wanted to come probably heard about it as well.

Mother Pei was a little angry, and she was even more afraid that her daughter-in-law would be unhappy, so she said softly: "Xiaoxi, don't worry about these people, they are all superficial. Let's not bother with them. You are capable, but they can't see it. When they want to come and see me in the future, I won't open the door for them!"

Jiang Xi smiled and said, "How could that be possible? I don't care."

Mother Pei breathed a sigh of relief. Being generous is good. She said, "There will be steamed eggs at noon. Eat more."

"Okay." Jiang Xi accepted it happily.

Then she found that there were quite a lot of steamed eggs as Pei's mother had mentioned. They were put in three small bowls. She and Jiang Ermei and Jiang Sanmei each had a bowl. They brought them to the table. The two old ladies put the bowls of steamed eggs directly in front of them: "Eat quickly, I steamed the eggs very well today, they are so tender!"

Jiang Sanmei was very brave and started eating with a spoon. When the smooth egg entered her mouth, she swayed her feet with happiness: "Big sister, it's delicious! I haven't eaten this kind of egg in a long time!"

Jiang Ermei was too embarrassed to move and looked at her elder sister for help.

Jiang Xi was also helpless. Pei's parents believed that she had sacrificed too much and were even more cautious with her, including her two younger sisters, but they were still as frugal with themselves as ever.

She stood up and put half of her egg into the two elders' bowls: "Mom and Dad, we can't just eat for the three of us. We are a family, so we should eat delicious food together."

"Hey, Dad doesn't like to eat--" Father Pei picked up his bowl and tried to avoid it.

But Jiang Xi was quicker and put the egg custard directly into his bowl, saying, "I'm not a child, who doesn't like egg custard?"

Father Pei coughed dryly and said nothing more, but the wrinkles at the corners of his eyes were squeezed together.

Mother Pei smiled when she saw this, with slightly moist eyes.

After this bowl was shared, Jiang Xi just sat down, and Jiang Ermei immediately handed her bowl to her: "Big sister, you eat more, I'll just eat."

Jiang Sanmei looked at them, slowed down a step, and moved her bowl over as well: "Then Second Sister, shall we eat together?"

"Okay." Jiang Ermei nodded this time.

Jiang Xi watched them divide the food among themselves, and she also gave some of her new share to Jiang Ermei, so that everyone had some egg custard. Then she picked up the spoon and scooped a small spoonful.

The egg custard was indeed steamed well, soft and delicious. It was sprinkled with salt and dripped with two drops of oil on top, and it didn't taste bland at all. When you use this egg custard to mix rice, even the dry brown rice and sweet potato rice become much more delicious.

Father Pei finished eating first and went to feed his son. He first poured water into the nasal feeding tube to clean it, and then used a syringe to inject the liquid food specially made for him. After feeding, he poured clean water into the nasal feeding tube to clean it. Only after he finished a series of things did he go out.

Jiang Xi felt that it was quite easy to take care of Pei Hejun, a vegetative patient.

Pei's parents did everything they could. If it wasn't inconvenient for them to come over at night, she felt that Pei's father would come in the middle of the night to help his son turn over.

It was still early, and after dinner, the Pei family members took a nap.

Jiang Xi also went back to the room and lay down for a while. She had written a lot this morning and was already very tired. When she lay down, she casually held the big hand of the man beside her, and a translucent panel appeared.

Three missions were completed and four were failed.

A total of fifteen points were earned, plus the twenty earned by Li Aimei yesterday, and the six left from Pei Hejun's previous earnings, which adds up to forty-one!

Forty-one points are not enough in the system mall, but Jiang Xi doesn't mind it. It's a good thing that he can buy some good things with them.

For example, vanishing cream that costs one or two yuan in the supply and marketing cooperative, medical alcohol and cotton balls that are not convenient to buy now, these daily necessities are very cheap in the mall and only require one point!

I bought quite a few things and only spent six points, and still have more than thirty points.

Jiang Xi was not a money-saving person, so she continued to look around. This time when she came to the medicinal materials area, the prices suddenly went up. If she bought some to treat patients, she would definitely not be able to make a profit unless the condition was serious. So she did not plan to buy a lot.

I just bought some nourishing food.

Because the system had said the last time she bought something, that the medicinal materials produced by the system must be of the best quality, much better than even those sold in drug stores on the market, that’s why Li Aimei was able to recover so quickly, and the price was not too expensive.

Jiang Xi wanted to buy it to supplement Pei Hejun's body. He has been in a vegetative state and has been bedridden for a long time. He cannot eat on his own and his nutrition is definitely not enough. Besides, there are Pei's parents, the original owner and his two sisters.

They all have malnutrition and some minor gastrointestinal problems, so they take some medicine to nourish themselves.

After buying these herbs, Jiang Xi was still not satisfied and wanted to continue watching. However, she couldn't afford the things she wanted. For example, a set of acupuncture cost 500 points!

Five hundred!!!

Although with acupuncture, there are many things she can do.

Jiang Xi stared at the acupuncture set and drooled for a while, then listlessly asked the system to take out all the things he had bought, put them in a package, and stuffed it in the closet. It was not convenient to take it out for the time being, so he had to find a chance.

Lunch break is over.

Everyone was woken up by the loudspeaker announcing the start of work.

Jiang Xi said that if he was going to the town, one person would have to stay at home, so Pei's mother would stay behind and let Pei's father go to work.

Jiang Ermei and Jiang Sanmei went to look for medicinal herbs as usual.

Before leaving, Jiang Xi asked, "Is there anything you want? You can tell me."

Jiang Ermei quickly shook her head and smiled brightly: "No."

Jiang Sanmei also shook her head, not because she was embarrassed, but smiled and said, "No, I haven't finished the biscuits at home!"

Although she was a little more delicate and clever, she was also very honest and knew that her life now was many times better than the previous three years. She no longer had to give up her delicious food, and she had new clothes to wear. That was enough.

Seeing this, Jiang Xi didn't say anything and rode away on his bike.

Because of the bad timing, when she went out, other villagers were also walking out lazily. She met many people along the way. Some greeted her with a smile, and some pointed at her and whispered.

The place where they worked was on the same road as the road to town. There was a section of the road where they were on the same road, and they also saw Pei Deming and his wife.

Jiang Xi found that both of them had some injuries on their faces, especially Pei Deming. The slap mark on his face seemed to be fading away, but it was not completely gone and was still quite noticeable. There was still some bruise on his cheekbone.

I guess he was beaten by Pei's parents.

Jiang Xi smiled. She knew what Xu Cui had said to Xisheng's mother that day. She was quite happy to see someone she didn't like suffer.

The other party soon noticed her, and their eyes fell on the bicycle at the same time. The bicycle was brand new. Except for the fact that her cousin borrowed it for a while on the wedding day, no one else had touched it since.

Pei's mother even wiped it with a towel, and it looked bright and beautiful under the sunlight.

A bicycle itself is worth a lot of money, at least one hundred and fifty, plus the ticket.

It's really not something that ordinary people can afford.

Seeing Jiang Xi's smile again, all the old and new hatreds came to her mind. Both of their facial features were distorted by jealousy. Xu Cui was so angry that she pinched her husband's arm: "Why are your parents so partial? When I got married, they gave me a sewing machine! Look at the third son's wife, she has everything!"

My mother-in-law already has a sewing machine, plus a bicycle, not to mention that she will probably get the pension too!

In comparison, how shabby she would be if she got married!

Pei Deming had a sullen face and said nothing, but his back teeth were clenched tightly and his cheeks were bulging.

He also hated his parents' favoritism.

But isn't there anything we can do about it?!

Seeing her husband remain silent, Xu Cui felt isolated and helpless, and became even angrier. Seeing Jiang Xi riding away, she became anxious and happened to see Xisheng's mother there, so she shouted, "Hey, head of the family, I just heard from our mother that the third son is so lucky that he was able to marry a great daughter-in-law who knows medical skills even though he is so sick. This daughter-in-law won't have to worry about having no food to eat in the future. How enviable!"

Pei Deming didn't say anything when he finished speaking. Xisheng's mother, who was bullied by Pei's mother yesterday, responded enthusiastically: "What do you mean amazing? It's amazing! Does Jianxiang's wife know? I've been married for many years and haven't gotten pregnant. This time I sprained my waist and ran over to see you, and your sister-in-law said I was pregnant right away!"

She spoke loudly, and many people working nearby looked over and interrupted, "No way? Jianxiang's wife is pregnant?"

"Didn't you say you have some skills?"

As they talked, everyone looked at the figure on the bike with suspicion. Jiang Xi naturally noticed it, but she didn't want to pay attention to it. Suddenly, with her good eyesight, she caught a glimpse of a figure riding a bicycle slowly in front of her. After thinking for a while, she simply stopped and looked at her, smiling and said, "Go on."

The person who was gossiping shut up silently, but his ears were still erect.

Seeing this, Xisheng's mother spoke even more vigorously, and said loudly: "How can this be false? Mrs. Zhang, tell me if this is true?"

Mrs. Zhang, who was not far away, said quickly, "Of course, I went to see her because I had a headache. She gave me a prescription but I didn't dare to take it and returned it..."

"Fortunately, I didn't ask for it, otherwise what would I do if I got sick from taking it? All medicines are poisonous!" Xisheng's mother exaggeratedly frowned and said, "Wang Guizhi likes to brag about her third son's wife. Who would let the third son..."

Xu Cui listened at the side and felt a little relieved from her anger.

She didn't necessarily want to be hard on this sister-in-law, but the third brother had already acted like this, and she didn't believe that Jiang Xi married into her family just to repay a favor.

After all, isn't it all about money?

Xu Cui just hoped that this person would leave quickly and not take away the third brother's pension! Otherwise, she would be criticized in the future and wonder if she could bear it!

But she looked around and didn't see Jiang Xi looking embarrassed, and she even smiled. Xu Cui was wondering, and when she followed her line of sight, she saw a figure riding a bicycle approaching from afar.

Pei Jianxiang and Lu Xiufang were seen riding in a car, smiling brightly. They were riding closer and greeted Jiang Xi at a distance, "He Jun's wife, are you going to the town?"

"Yeah." Jiang Xi nodded and signaled them to stop.

Now everyone was from the same village. Pei Jianxiang braked and supported the bicycle with one foot. Lu Xiufang, who was sitting at the back holding her waist, also got off the bicycle.

Xu Cui, who had been silent since the beginning, suddenly had her eyelids twitch. Looking at the two people's happy faces, she felt a little uneasy.

Not only her, Xisheng's mother and Mrs. Zhang also found it strange and did not dare to say anything for a while.

Everyone around here knows each other. Previously, the couple was worried about their child, but now they are so happy. Someone couldn't wait to ask, "Jianxiang, what's the good news?"

Pei Jianxiang smiled heartily and said loudly, "It's good news, my wife is pregnant! The doctor said it's been more than a month, thanks to He Jun's wife for finding out, otherwise it would be bad if my wife took the wrong medicine! We didn't believe it at first, but she insisted that we go for a check-up, and said she wasn't pregnant, and she paid for the check-up! I knew it was almost certain when she was so sure, right? The old doctor in the clinic just found it out."

Although traditional Chinese medicine has declined in recent years, Western medicine requires the use of various medical equipment. It is difficult to form a complete system in such a slowly developing town. Therefore, most of the slightly better doctors here are traditional Chinese medicine practitioners, and they also use the method of taking the pulse. Otherwise, the blood test results will not be available until the next day.

Such an answer shocked the villagers.

The couple who had been married for four years without any news are actually pregnant!

It was still Jiang Xi who made the diagnosis. He was so young, but he could take the pulse so accurately. Even after being denied, he still insisted, otherwise Pei Jianxiang and his wife would definitely not believe it.

Realizing this, the villagers subconsciously looked at Mrs. Zhang and Xisheng's mother. What did they just say? They smiled with a bit of embarrassment and ridicule.

Pei Jianxiang and Lu Xiufang looked at each other in bewilderment. Their reactions were not right!

Why are you looking at other people?

Shouldn't we congratulate them?

As a first-time father, whenever he met acquaintances along the way, he would congratulate them a lot. Why is this different?

Jiang Xi chuckled and said without disguising, "Someone just remembered what happened yesterday afternoon and said that I made a wrong diagnosis. I'm helping to publicize it and hope that everyone won't be fooled by me."

Pei Jianxiang and Lu Xiufang: "..."

Not really.

Besides, the pulse of a happy couple cannot be detected easily. They didn't say much at the time, so why is this outsider so nosy?

They also looked over and found that it was these two people. Then they suddenly realized that these two people in the village always liked to gossip about others, especially those they didn't have a good relationship with. They would like to make up stories until the other person knelt down and begged them to shut up.

Xisheng's mother and Mrs. Zhang were not stupid either. How could they not feel so many mocking eyes falling on them?

The two men's skinny faces were red as if they were congested. The mischievous look on their faces was gone. They hurried to the field, muttering as they ran, "What are you still standing here for? Go to work!"

Auntie Lanhua, who had long disliked the two, deliberately raised her voice in the background, "Hey, didn't you say He Jun's wife is incompetent? Didn't you say she made blind diagnoses? She is amazing! You should know it with just one look, otherwise she wouldn't have taken my pulse and prescribed medicine directly! You guys are just talking nonsense here, don't go to her if you have any problems in the future. She is such a grown-up, and you keep making up stories about her when you haven't taken advantage of her. You are such an old man."

Suddenly, the two of them ran faster, and when they went down the ridge of the field, they stumbled and fell.

Jiang Xi had originally stopped waiting for this scene, and when he saw it, he laughed out loud.

"Hahaha..." The people around them burst into laughter and came back to their senses. They all congratulated Pei Jianxiang and his wife: "Congratulations, you finally have a baby!"

Pei Jianxiang and Lu Xiufang also smiled, exchanged a few words with everyone, and shook Jiang Xi's hand sincerely and gratefully: "Mrs. He Jun, thank you so much! If it weren't for you, I don't know if I could have kept the child!"

Jiang Xi: "It's okay, this is what I should do."

The people in the village then remembered that Pei Zhong's third daughter-in-law was really capable! She immediately saw that Lu Xiufang was pregnant, but she didn't give her medicine, and was wrongly accused by Xisheng's mother and Mrs. Zhang.

Everyone immediately greeted Jiang Xi enthusiastically: "You are a talented kid!"

"From now on, we don't have to go to the town for a long distance when we have a headache or a fever. He Jun's wife, don't you think so?"

Dozens of people gathered around as one by one spoke. Jiang Xi's smile froze. She said something quickly and rode away. She walked away quickly, leaving the villagers with a lingering feeling: "It's great that our village has finally produced a great person!"

"Yeah, I didn't believe it when I heard it yesterday. My rheumatism has been very bad recently. I don't know how much it costs to see a doctor for a military wife. I went to the old doctor in town before. He treated me well, but it cost only fifty cents..."

"I heard it's not expensive. Just bring a few eggs."

Everyone was discussing enthusiastically while going to work in the fields. They were organizing the old times. Welcome to join us. Tens of thousands of historical novels are free to read. Only the two people who fell behind had a stiff look on their faces. They happened to be the ones who did not trust Jiang Xi at noon, returned the prescription, and took the medical fee.

At this point, the two were filled with regret and shame.

It was a bargain in the first place. What were a handful of vegetables and two eggs?

As a result, they listened to Xishengniang and Mrs. Zhang and really took the things back!

Regret it!

This time I've offended someone!

The two of them sighed at the same time, revealing a bit of bitterness. They really lost their minds at that time. It was just two or three eggs, nothing in the least. Why did they have to take them back?

"It's all Xishengniang's fault!"

"Yes! And there is Mrs. Zhang..."

Jiang Xi could probably guess what the villagers' attitude was.

But it has nothing to do with her.

She was riding her bike, facing the wind, towards the town. On the way there, she saw some medicinal herbs on the roadside, but they were all very common. Jiang Ermei and Jiang Sanmei could pick them for her, so she ignored them.

All the way to the town, this was her third time here.

The first time was when I was going back from town, and the second time was when I came with Pei's mother to buy things for the wedding. Both times I relied on my own two legs. Now I ride a bike and feel more relaxed than ever before.

At least she doesn't have to strain her legs.

Every time she went back and forth, her legs would be swollen for a long time.

Jiang Xi came here today mainly to buy some medicinal herbs, such as those for treating headaches, fever, inflammation, and getting angry. These are all used in daily life. If the villagers catch a cold and it doesn't get better after a few days, they have to come to the clinic no matter how reluctant they are.

But the trip back and forth not only takes time, but also costs money.

If Jiang Xi wants to see a doctor in the future, this disease is definitely common, so he must buy it in advance.

In addition to medicinal herbs, she also wanted to buy acupuncture needles, but they were not cheap and had to be customized. The customized ones were the most common ones, which were completely inferior to the ones that Jiang Xi was familiar with in her previous life.

However, given the conditions, she could only pay a deposit first.

The clerk smiled and said, "You'll have to wait about a month. Come back in a month."

"Thank you." After buying the medicine, Jiang Xi sorted it out and put it in a basket. She then went to the supply and marketing cooperative to use the cloth coupons that Pei's mother had given her that day. She also went to withdraw one hundred yuan as living expenses for the rest of her life, and then she planned to go back.

But just as I walked out of the post office, I saw a man and a woman going in side by side.

The door was so small that one of them went out and two came in. Jiang Xi just took a quick glance and noticed that the expressions of both of them were stiff for a moment.

Jiang Xi took a closer look at it.

Just then I remembered that these two people happened to be Lu Jianguo and Qin Yue. However, the original owner had only met Lu Jianguo once. Although he and Qin Yue were classmates, they were not familiar with each other, so he did not say hello and left directly.

Qin Yue couldn't help but look back.

The girl was about the same age as himself, a little thin, but pretty. She had long hair, which was casually tied into a ponytail and then braided into a pigtail. Not a bit of hair fell down, revealing her entire face, which felt clean when she brushed it.

Even if you are wearing plain-looking clothes, you can still stand out from a crowd of equally gray people.

"What's wrong?" Lu Jianguo asked.

Qin Yue quickly came back to her senses, took a deep breath, suppressed the envy and guilt that emerged in her heart, and smiled faintly: "I met an old classmate, but she didn't seem to recognize me. Let's go in."

Lu Jianguo smiled somewhat unnaturally, nodded, and went in.

Today, the two of them went to register their marriage.

In order to get married, Lu Jianguo took half a month's vacation, and he has not been away for these days. The leaders know that his situation is special and have said in advance that the political review can be expedited to prevent the three naughty boys in the family compound from overturning the roof of the house they are helping to take care of.

Qin Yue relaxed a little, glanced at the people around her, pursed her lips and smiled, her eyes filled with hope for a happy life in the future.

This time she won't make the wrong choice.

Isn't she just a stepmother?

It just so happened that she didn't give birth to a son in her previous life, so this time she had three sons without having to give birth, and she didn't have to worry about being rejected if she gave birth to daughters in the future. Not to mention that except for Lu Jianguo as a father, his three sons would all be outstanding people in the future. As long as she held on, she wouldn't have to worry about future glory and wealth!

As for Jiang Xi...

I heard that she married Pei Hejun two days ago.

In her previous life, she remembered that Jiang Xi married Lu Jianguo, and Pei Hejun died after being in a coma for about half a year. Afterwards, Pei's parents and two sons had a quarrel. When they were sick and old, it was Jiang Xi who took care of them.

In this life, Jiang Xi was sent there in advance. Maybe Pei Hejun would not die so early. Maybe it was... a good thing. At most, if Jiang Xi encountered difficulties in the future, she would help.

Qin Yue thought about this and finally felt much more at ease.

The other side

Jiang Xi has already ridden back.

She didn't take the passing by seriously and rode her bike very fast, enjoying the comfort of the wind.

I bought most of the things I wanted, the only pity was that there were not enough cloth coupons. The cloth was probably enough for each person to make a shirt, but not trousers.

She didn’t know where the black market was in this place, and she wanted to go there to exchange some tickets.

Without a ticket at this time, it is almost impossible to move around. Few things do not require a ticket, and the points in the system cannot be used randomly. She also wanted to save up to buy silver needles, but the system cannot be recharged.

However, the original owner was timid, and the people he knew were also timid, and they had never been to the black market.

Jiang Xi was thinking while riding.

How about asking Pei Jianxiang? He looks honest, but from what Pei's mother said, he must have some ability to build a small business in just over a year.

As I was thinking, the village was getting closer.

Because of the time she spent in the town, it was almost five o'clock when she returned to the village. Pei's mother had just picked some vegetables and was washing them. When she heard the movement of the bicycle, her eyes lit up and she waved, "Xiaoxi is back. There is some sugar water on the table in the main hall. I specially cooled it down. You should drink it quickly."

"Okay, thank you, mother." Jiang Xi parked the car in the woodshed with a smile. He took down the backpack from the back of the car, but did not take it out. Instead, he went into the room first.

The room had been cleaned by Pei's mother. It was a little messy before, but now it was clean. Pei Hejun was sleeping on his side. It was summer, so he didn't cover himself with a blanket. Jiang Xi held his hand directly and said, "System, put the things in my basket."

System: [OK! ]

At this moment, the things that had been purchased long ago immediately appeared in the basket in Jiang Xi's arms, and the weight of the basket became heavier.

Jiang Xi went out holding something and shouted, "Mom, come here."

Mother Pei took a look and put down the dishes in her hands. She wiped her wet hands on her body and asked with a smile, "What good things do you have?"

She took out the things one by one and stuffed a folded piece of cloth into Pei's mother's hands: "This is for making clothes for you and dad, mother, please keep it first."

Mother Pei was startled and looked down. The cloth was dark in color, but soft to the touch, and clean without any patches. She immediately felt a pain in her flesh: "Here! Where do I want this? Take it yourself!"

Jiang Xi had already guessed that she was reluctant to do so, and pouted: "Mom, look at this color, I don't like it, you and Dad should each make one."

Mother Pei also thought so. This dark color is worn by older people. How could a little girl wear this? Her daughter-in-law must have bought it on purpose. She shook her head helplessly, but the smile on her face could not be stopped: "Okay, Mom will keep it. You don't need to buy it next time. Your father and I have everything we need."

Jiang Xi smiled, but didn't respond. He took another piece of meat and flour and said, "Here's another one. Mom, shall we have dumplings?"

Mother Pei felt pained again, but since this was what her daughter-in-law wanted, she didn't say anything. The money was given to her, so she didn't have to think about how to use it. Xiaoxi was not a child to be wasted, so she nodded: "Okay, then mother will do it."

Jiang Xi asked again: "By the way, Mom, is there anyone who can build a cabinet? I want to build a cabinet to store some medicinal herbs."

"Yes, yes!" Pei's mother nodded repeatedly: "I'll talk to your father tonight. He has a good relationship with the carpenter and can get a much cheaper price."

Jiang Xi took note and wrapped up the herbs he had bought one by one. He took out one of the patches and did not give it to Pei's mother. Instead, he went to the stove and started to boil the medicine with the medicine pot. Pei's mother saw it and asked, "Who is sick?"

"This is a tonic medicine made for He Jun. His body can't take it anymore and he needs to be nourished." Jiang Xi said. After just a few days of living there, she could already see that Pei He Jun had lost a little weight.

Before long, maybe only skin and bones will be left.

Nowadays, it is not just a problem of medical technology, but also a lack of various nutritious meals, making it very difficult to supplement nutrition.

Mother Pei felt warm at heart, and she chopped the meat much more gently.

She still takes care of her son in everything. This daughter-in-law is so nice that she even feels guilty.

Jiang Xi didn't think too much about it. Pei Hejun is now a retired soldier, the Pei family also helped the original owner, and the system is in his hands, so she naturally has to take good care of him.

A little after five in the afternoon, Jiang Ermei and Jiang Sanmei also came back.

This time they brought a lot of collected medicinal herbs.

Jiang Xi had processed all the previous medicinal herbs. When the new herbs came back, she weighed them immediately, gave them money, and started processing them. The herbs were dried. In the afternoon, she added two more pictures of herbs for the two of them. The two of them picked a lot.

Jiang Xi was very happy. As he sorted things out, he said, "There are some food for you on the table in the main hall. One stick per person. Don't take more."

"Food?!"

They were both delighted and ran over quickly to take a look. On the big table was a bag of fruit leather in a transparent bag, piled up in long rolls, a whole bag!

I estimate there are about twenty of them.

Jiang Sanmei quickly opened it and took two, one for herself and one for her second sister. The sour and sweet fruit jelly tasted better than candy. She was so happy that she said, "Big sister, it's delicious!"

Jiang Xi chuckled: "Even if it's delicious, you can only eat one. Perform well and I'll give it to you next time."

Jiang Ermei was much more reserved. She ate the fruit leather in small bites. She was reluctant to eat too much, so she took only a small bite and immediately rewrapped it, put it in the room, and ate it slowly.

Now that they had food, they were more willing to work. They jumped over to Jiang Xi and helped her clean up. "Big sister, how is our herb collection going?"

"Very good." Jiang Xi said with a smile.

Jiang Ermei smiled happily and put the dried herbs into the bag.

The three sisters worked together and were much faster. By the time Jiang Xi had finished cleaning up, Pei's mother was already kneading the dough, so they went over to help.

But after helping for a while, Pei's father came back, and brought other people to the Pei family: "He Jun's wife, my waist is sprained, can you help me take a look?"

"He Jun's wife, my grandson has had a fever for two days and he hasn't recovered yet. Do you think he should go to the clinic?"

When Pei's mother heard that someone came to see a doctor, she immediately drove her out: "Go and get busy, the kitchen doesn't need you."

Jiang Xi had no choice but to go out. He saw a group of villagers holding eggs and smiling, and said, "Come here and wait for a while. I'll go in and get something."

"Okay!" Everyone lined up very consciously.

Jiang Xi went into the room to get a pen and a notebook, then shook Pei Hejun's hand and took over the task very skillfully.
