Chapter 192 Mom, I'm Not Pregnant Yet
When she opened her eyes, it was almost noon.
Seeing that it was getting brighter outside, Wen Tang stretched and then got up lazily.
As soon as Wen Tang went out with his toothbrush, he was warmly received by his mother-in-law, "Tang, what do you want to eat?"
"How about eggs?"
"Mom will cook two for you."
Wen Tang: "..."
"Mom, did you go out to pick up money this morning?"
Zhong Meixian shook her head, "I haven't left the house yet!"
The old lady said this and went into the kitchen happily.
Wen Tang moved to the yard next to her best friend who was holding the child. "Did the old lady get upset so early in the morning?"
Chi Yue shook her head. "Before you got up, she was still the same as usual."
Wen Tang wondered, "Did she misunderstand that I was pregnant again?"
"What did you say that made her misunderstand?"
Wen Tang shook his head.
"What did you do to make her misunderstand?"
Wen Tang still shook his head.
"That shouldn't be it."
Wen Tang thought about it, and while eating eggs, he still said to Zhong Meixian, "Mom, I'm not pregnant yet!"
Wen Tang felt that if she didn't say this, she would choke on the egg in her mouth.
As soon as Wen Tang finished speaking, Zhong Meixian immediately put on a wrinkled smile and said, "Oh, it's okay, it's okay. You are still young. If you don't get pregnant in the first year, you will get pregnant in three years. There's no rush!"
"No hurry, no hurry," Zhong Meixian muttered twice again, seemingly to comfort Wen Tang, but Wen Tang felt that she was more like comforting herself.
"Mom, why don't you eat the remaining eggs?"
"You eat it, you eat it, I don't like eggs."
"I don't like it."
"When did Gu Yanli leave in the morning?" Wen Tang changed the subject.
"He left at daybreak, and when he left he told me to buy him some more meat!"
"I only think of you," Zhong Meixian said kindly.
Wen Tang felt embarrassed, "Hey, of course you have to think about me. I'm his only wife. If not me, who else can you think about?"
Zhong Meixian could only nod, "Yes, that's right."
Wen Tang still smiled shyly, "Hehe, that's right!"
The two eggs went into Wen Tang's stomach. Wen Tang washed his hands and picked up the net and basket by the wall. "Mom, I'm going out for a while."
With so many orders now, they need to make soap frequently and save up inventory in case more quantity is needed later.
So she had nothing to do and went out to catch clams and other things.
Moreover, after the Mid-Autumn Festival, the weather turned cooler and the soapberries outside began to drop their fruits.
She went out to pick some up and tried to make some soapberry soap.
She noticed in the spring that there were quite a lot of soapberry trees where they were.
Wen Tang was holding a scoop net and carrying a basket, and was seen by Luo Qiao and Luo Tian who were picking peanuts in the field.
The peanuts had been picked, but there were inevitably some left in the fields, so these female educated youth were assigned the job of picking peanuts.
Picking peanuts is not tiring and everyone likes to do it.
Luo Qiao is particularly fond of doing this because she really loves to fish in troubled waters.
Look, Wen Tang was seen by her when he passed by.
When she saw it, she poked Luo Tian beside her and asked, "Look, where is she going?"
Luo Tian shook her head.
Luo Qiao threw the two peanuts he had picked up into the basket and stood up straight. "Tiantian, come with me to find a place to relieve yourself."
When working in the fields, there were no toilets nearby, and it was not practical to travel back and forth to the educated youth site, so they basically relieved themselves in small woods, low-lying ditches, or behind graves.
Men are easy to deal with.
To avoid being seen, women usually go in pairs.
So she asked Luo Tian to accompany her to the bathroom, but no one else responded.
Walking out of the field, she took Luo Tian and followed Wen Tang.
I saw Wen Tang going to the lake.
Luo Qiao was curious, "What is she doing there?"
"Is there anything good in the lake?"
It wasn't until she saw Wen Tang put all the clams, snails and other things he had caught into the basket that Luo Qiao looked as if she understood everything.
"I said she has no resources, what is she reselling?"
"So they're taking advantage of the current shortage of supplies and people having nothing to eat, so they're using some big ingredients to sell some low-cost dishes!"
"Humph, you still have some brains, but it's useless."
Luo Qiao has made up his mind to report Wen Tang.
Now that I know what Wen Tang is doing, I feel more confident.
You can't use the toilet for too long. Knowing what Wen Tang was here for, Luo Qiao pulled Luo Tian away again.
Luo Tian was pulled by Luo Qiao, looking back every few steps, "Can those things be eaten?"
Luo Qiao nodded. "Yes, clean it and add spicy food, it will taste great."
"Qiao Qiao, have you eaten it?"
"Oh, yes, I ate it once before at your biological parents' house."
Luo Tian lowered her eyes slightly and said, "Oh!"
Wen Tang didn't know he was being followed.
After scooping out half the basket, I turned to pick up soapberries.
Fortunately, Luo Qiao didn't see her move, otherwise Luo Qiao would have guessed something and wouldn't have been so determined to do stupid things.
After catching some clams and snails and picking up half a bag of soapberries, Wen Tang had already started cooking when he got home.
It's stir-fried pork with green peppers.
I could smell it from a long distance away.
Wen Tang walked in, threw down his things, and asked, "Mom, is it time to roast the meat?"
Zhong Meixian nodded and said, "Yes, I'm thinking of stir-frying the meat left over from yesterday."
"This way you will have more strength to work, and Xiaoyue will have milk after eating."
Wen Tang nodded, "Then don't make it too spicy, Xiaoyue is still breastfeeding."
Zhong Meixian nodded. "Not spicy, not spicy. I didn't put any chili in it."
Wen Tang put the picked soapberries into a dustpan and told them that he would make new soap in the afternoon.
Zhong Meixian and the others didn’t understand and didn’t express their opinions.
Chi Yue only said, "The child is asleep, I will help you."
"Uh-huh!"
In just one afternoon, the soapberry soap was put into the mold.
Wen Tang said to Chi Yue again, "I will go to the county town tomorrow to order another batch of wrapping paper and molds."
"There are still cartons, but there aren't many left."
Wen Tang was thinking.
The next day, before she even left the house, Director Wang came to Gu's house.
"Director Wang?" Wen Tang was very surprised to see Director Wang.
"Well, are you going out?" Director Wang asked with a smile when he saw Wen Tang carrying a cross-body bag.
"Yes, I feel that the cartons and molds are not enough, so I'm thinking of going to the county to order another batch."
Director Wang nodded and said, "It's time to order it."
When Zhong Meixian saw Director Wang, she brought a stool for him and said, "Director, please sit down."
He was busy pouring tea.
Director Wang quickly said, "Auntie, don't be busy. I want to talk to Xiao Wen for a few words and then I'll leave."
"You don't have to be busy."
Although she said this, Zhong Meixian was still busy.
Brown sugar water was quickly poured over.
Director Wang also sat down and said, "Comrade Xiao Wen, I have good news for you."
"Well, Director, you say," Wen Tang sat opposite Director Wang, and was as well-behaved as a model student.
"That's right. Didn't the neighboring county buy soap from us a few days ago?"
"Um!"
"After we got these products back, they sold very well, and everyone said they were very useful and cleaned things very well."
