The moment Ning Jia saw Bai Jinfeng's face, she was stunned for a moment: "Sister-in-law... didn't you and Zhaodi go back to your parents' home? What's going on? What's wrong with your face?"
As soon as she finished speaking, Zhaodi burst into tears: "They don't want me and mommy anymore!!"
Bai Jinfeng said with tears in her eyes, "My parents heard that Li Gang and I were divorced, and they felt that I had brought shame upon them! They also said that I couldn't give my husband a son, and it was all my fault! They didn't want to see me, and told me to go wherever I wanted! Ning Jia, my sister-in-law is desperate, can I stay at your place for a few days?"
Seeing how pitiful this mother and daughter were, Ning Jia softened her heart and said, "Sure, sister-in-law can live here as long as you want."
"Thank you, thank you!" Bai Jinfeng was so grateful that she almost knelt down to Ning Jia.
Her own parents both despised her for being a disgrace, so when they heard about her divorce, they slapped her twice without saying a word.
On the contrary, it was Ning Jia who readily agreed to let her stay.
"You said uncle and aunt are really bastards, how can they be so cruel?" Ning Jia stood up and took Bai Jinfeng's bag and asked her to sit down. "You are their only daughter, and why don't they protect you when something like this happens? Instead, why do they blame you?"
Bai Jinfeng shook her head and was completely disappointed with her family.
"Don't cry, sister-in-law. Our yard is big and has plenty of room for you and Zhaodi to live in."
Li Yao thought for a moment and said, "I have cleaned up the warehouse before, and that room has been empty. If that's the case, let's let sister-in-law and Zhaodi move in."
"Does that room belong to us?" Ning Jia asked Li Yao.
She was afraid that Old Lady Xu would make a fuss and say that the house in the backyard also belonged to the family and would not let Bai Jinfeng and her daughter live there.
"Yes." Li Yao said, "Mom meant that as long as no one lives in the backyard, the room is ours."
The only room that no one lives in except my second sister Li Hong is the room where miscellaneous items are stored.
Strictly speaking, this room is a room shared by them and the fifth brother's family.
But he believed that his fifth brother and sister-in-law would not disagree with this matter.
"That's it. The room is still empty. You and Li Tao can stay there tonight. We'll clean it up tomorrow, and you and Zhaodi will live there from now on."
"Thank you, sister-in-law." Bai Jinfeng felt something was wrong after saying this, so she changed her words and said, "Thank you, sister."
Li Tao hadn't come back yet, so Ning Jia asked Bai Jinfeng and Zhaodi to go back to their rooms to rest first.
Widow Chen was still waiting for her in the yard. She guessed that there should be a response to the vegetable selling matter.
"Sister Chen, I'm sorry to have kept you waiting for a long time. What's the news? Tell me quickly, I can't wait any longer." Ning Jia returned to the yard and urged Widow Chen as soon as he sat down.
Widow Chen lowered her voice and said with a smile, "There's news about the vegetable sale. My cousin in the cafeteria said they want spinach, the more the better! Ning Jia, I think you should sell all the spinach in your greenhouse to them."
"I kept some for myself and sold the rest. Sister Chen, have you negotiated the price with them? What did they say?" Ning Jia asked hurriedly.
"They didn't want to pay more. But I told you, other vegetables aren't on the market yet, only we have them. If we don't pay more, who would be willing to sell to them? Then, they gave this price..." Widow Chen held up a finger, "one pound of silver per pound."
"Really? That's too much. If that's the case, I'll sell them all!" Ning Jia happily agreed. "When will the goods be delivered?"
Widow Chen said, "The sooner the better. In my opinion, we should deliver the goods tomorrow!"
"OK!"
"Then I will come to help you harvest the vegetables tomorrow morning. Qin Niu is going to town for a rest tomorrow, so I will ask him to help you pull all the spinach over." Widow Chen said.
"Okay then, it's decided!"
After Ning Jia and Widow Chen agreed on the matter, Widow Chen got up and left. Ning Jia sent her to the door, and when they returned to the backyard, the sky had gradually darkened.
Li Yao started chopping wood in the yard. Ning Jia walked up to him and asked him what news he brought.
"I was interrupted just now. You said you had some news to tell me. What was it?"
Li Yao stopped what he was doing and said, "Our agricultural production brigade needs to be equipped with tractors, and the brigade leader wants me to go to the commune's agricultural machinery station to learn how to drive and repair tractors. Is this good news?"
"Of course it counts!" Ning Jia immediately became happy. "If you learn how to operate a tractor, you will master a skill. When our business becomes bigger, we can count on you to do transportation for us. How can this not count as a small thing?"
"Besides, I won't go to the fields anymore. Even if I go to the fields, I'll drive a tractor, which is much better than doing hard labor!" Li Yao added, "I'm the first and only person in our village who learned to drive a tractor."
"That's too much! Just wait, I'll go catch a chicken and kill it for you to celebrate tonight!"
It has been a while since I last had chicken, and Li Yao was indeed craving for meat: "Okay, then let's stew a chicken tonight!"
Dinner was lively. Ning Jia called Li Tao and Liu Xueshan to come and eat together. Together with Bai Jinfeng and Zhaodi's mother and daughter, a group of people gathered around the table to have a lively meal.
Zhaodi is a child after all, so she will only be sad for a while, and she will be happy when she sees him eating.
Liu Xueshan had been eating with Ning Jia these days, and the Liu family felt bad about it, so they sent the eldest brother of the Liu family to deliver food to her twice.
One time, they delivered a bag of millet and half a bag of potatoes, and another time, they delivered half a bag of flour and a basket of eggs.
With all these foods, Ning Jia has gained a lot of weight during this period.
Before going to bed, she looked at herself again and again in the mirror on the closet, from the front and from the side, muttering as she did so: "I feel like I've gained weight again, and my waistline seems to have gotten thicker."
Li Yao was tired after a busy day and lay down on the kang early.
Hearing Ning Jia muttering in front of the mirror, he turned over and lay on the kang, looking at Ning Jia: "Not fat, why are you fat? I thought you were thin! Your waist is not thick, it's all your illusion."
"Isn't it thick?" Ning Jia gestured, "Look at me from the side, it's flat like a piece of paper, but now it's almost as big as a barrel."
Li Yao laughed, "How could that be? After a whole winter you are finally not that thin anymore. As for why you feel fat, it's just because your chest has grown a lot. Jiajia, you are finally starting to grow! You used to be a small apricot, but now you are almost a peach!"
"It looks like it!" After he said that, Ning Jia also realized that she had always thought that she had gained weight and had never thought about it in the direction of development.
She was previously malnourished and as thin as a poker card.
Now her nutrition has caught up, and she has finally started her second development as an adult!
Ouch——
She is so proud of her 36D figure, please come back soon! !
Ning Jia admired herself for a while, then took off her clothes and went to bed. As soon as she lay down, Li Yao came to her side and whispered in her ear in an ambiguous tone: "Jia Jia, you have to reward me. Your secondary development is inseparable from my contribution."
