Chapter 282: Bluff
Dabao and his friends felt that the question their mother asked really stumped them. "Mom, why can you only give birth when Daddy is home? When you gave birth to your younger brothers, weren't you born alone? And Daddy wasn't home at all."
As expected, when the children grow up, they are not cute at all. How can Tang Yue respond to this? She can only fool them, "You are too young. You will understand when you grow up."
Sanbao is a smart guy, and asked, "Mom, since we can only know when we grow up, we won't ask anymore. We just want to know when we can have a sister."
This is not going to work, right? "When your brothers grow up to be as old as you, then you can do it."
Tang Yue thought that no matter how many children there were, they couldn't exceed the older ones. Wubao and the others would grow up slowly, but Dabao and the others would also grow up, so it was impossible for them to exceed the older ones.
"Mom, please keep your word."
Tang Yue nodded indifferently, thinking that she would go to the countryside in two days. It was just right that she could take some time today to visit Brother Hu and ask him to help her buy a camera. Although she had a lot of money, cameras were only sold in foreign exchange stores. Without foreign exchange coupons, she could not buy one. She could only ask Brother Hu for help.
"You guys look after my brother. Go find grandma. She'll be back soon."
Seeing them nodding obediently, Tang Yue went out of the house and saw her mother-in-law washing clothes outside. She walked over and said to her, "Mom, I'm going out for a while. Please help me look after Wubao and the others. I'll be back in about an hour or two."
The mother-in-law nodded in agreement without saying anything, "Then you wait for a while, it will be ready soon, just wash it again."
Aunt Wu, who was helping to wash clothes, urged: "Sister Xiao, go! There is only a little work left, and it won't take long for one person to finish washing. It's just right for Yueyue to go earlier and come back earlier, so she can come back in time for dinner!"
Mother Zhao looked at the few clothes she had and thought they only needed to be washed once before being put out to dry, so she didn't refuse. "Okay, thank you, Sister Wu."
She wiped the water droplets on her hands on the apron in front of her, turned around and said to her daughter-in-law, "놖 I'll go watch you now, go if you need anything."
Tang Yue did not refuse and was thinking about sending another batch of goods to Brother Hu. After all, she had promised him. If she waited in the countryside for a few months, it would be too late to deliver the goods to him when she came back.
"Mom, I'm not sure if he will come back for lunch. If you have anything that he brought, you can tell him now and he will bring it back to you later."
The mother-in-law was probably worried about the baby so she went straight into the house. She thought as she walked, and after a while she said, "Just bring some cloth back. When I was sewing bags yesterday, I found that we didn't have much cloth at home. It's just right to bring some more cloth and cotton back to make two sets of cotton-padded clothes for Aunt Wu and the others. When they first came in the first half of the year, the cotton-padded clothes were torn. You happened to be pregnant too, so I didn't want you to be too tired, so I didn't say anything to you. After all, you are helping our family take care of the baby, and you don't get paid, so it's our duty to keep them warm and well fed."
Tang Yue thought about it and felt that it was true. The family didn't need anything but enough food and clothing. This was not a high demand at all. Moreover, there were a lot of fabrics in her own space, and there were various colors. They were all set up in the processing workshop and dyed automatically by machines.
"Okay, these are what we should do. When the time comes, buy more. You and Dad can make two more sets. By the way, make two sets of knife sets for the babies. Anyway, there are so many children at home, and it's not too late to make clothes for them all. Brother Shengrui can also make two sets for him. The last time we made new clothes, we made autumn and summer clothes for him. Mom, think about what else to buy?"
Seeing her daughter-in-law caring so much about the old couple, Zhao's mother was extremely happy, but she also declined, saying, "Don't worry about me and your father. I just made a new cotton-padded jacket. It still looks very new now. Don't waste the fabric."
Although her mother-in-law said so, Tang Yue still followed her own ideas, "Mom, it's okay. We are not short of money anyway, so it doesn't matter if we make a few more sets to change into. If there is nothing else to buy, then I will leave first."
"Go ahead. There's nothing to buy. Be careful on the road and don't go to dangerous places. If you can't get back in time for dinner, don't starve yourself."
"Got it. I won't take Dabao and the others out to play today. It's not safe to have two older kids missing at home."
After saying that, Tang Yue went to the backyard to get the backpack and prepared to set off.
"Got it. Don't worry. No matter how much they cry today, I won't take them out."
Mother Zhao still loves her grandchildren very much.
Since her mother-in-law agreed, Tang Yue had nothing to say. She walked straight out of the yard and towards Brother Hu.
Father Zhao rode for about an hour and a half before arriving at the Hongqi Brigade. There were many people sitting under the big tree, chatting and gossiping. After all, it was not the busy farming season yet, so everyone still had time to chat and gossip. If they saw a stranger entering the village, they would definitely ask about him. The first time they came, they went directly to the captain's house, so many people had never seen him.
"My dear, where are you from? What are you doing here?"
Father Zhao was confused at first. After all, he was asking about his hometown. He never felt that he was old now. It took him a while to react and said quickly, "Hello everyone, I am the educated youth who came here to work in the countryside, Tang Yue's father-in-law. It's not that she is bored in the town, but she misses the folks here. I specially asked you to come and clean the house. She will move in in a few days and live here for two months. Then everyone can come to our house to play!"
When the villagers heard that they were familiar with him, they relaxed their guard a little, and were curious again, why was their family here? Didn't they say they were going abroad to join the army?
The villagers thought so and asked directly. They would not beat around the bush and asked directly. Zhao's father did not hide anything and told them directly about recommending his eldest son to the military academy. He also mentioned that he would move away after two days when his eldest son was reallocated. This would save a lot of trouble.
In this way, there won't be those ignorant people who always like to spread rumors.
Fortunately, the villagers just wanted to ask, and they didn't stop him after knowing the answer. "Then you should go and clean up quickly, and move in sooner. The whole village has heard that your daughter-in-law is very capable and has given birth to several grandchildren. Everyone has long wanted to see them, and now their wish has come true."
