Chapter 180 Go to the next county



There was silence in the room for a while. Everyone knew what Lin Yulan meant, but no one responded. There was no way to respond, right?

Lin Yulan quickly wiped the corners of her eyes, then smiled and placed the swaddle next to Erni.

"You should hold your child less when she falls asleep. Just let her lie down in bed with you. Otherwise, you won't be able to put her down later..."

Erni actually knew all this. After all, she had been helping her older sister take care of her younger sister since she was five or six years old. At that time, she couldn't hold her and didn't dare to hold her, so she could only put her on the bed and pat her gently. But she still listened quietly to Lin Yulan's experience.

Dani moved closer to take another look at her niece, but as soon as she squatted down, she suddenly felt an uncontrollable nausea for some reason. She was afraid of scaring the baby, so she quickly stood up and ran to the side and started to retch.

Everyone in the room was stunned. Lin Yulan stood there with her mouth open for a long time before she stood up, rushed over and supported her eldest daughter.

"Dani! You, you are not pregnant too, are you?"

Dani exclaimed, "Ah?" She didn't know!

Lin Yulan asked anxiously in a low voice, "When did you have that?"

Dani thought for a moment, "Last month... he didn't come, and the month before... it seemed... uh, he didn't come either..."

She was never punctual. When she was a teenager, she often stood in the paddy fields while enduring menstrual cramps, and it was common for her to be late for half a month or a month.

She was busy building a house some time ago. She finished the building while working, and then she was thinking about going back to her parents' home to help with the autumn harvest after get off work... Anyway, she herself couldn't remember when she had her period.

The clinic had already closed for the day, and Lin Yulan said angrily, "Go get a checkup tomorrow morning!"

As expected, Dani was already three months pregnant, probably even before the beam-raising wine ceremony. Wang Yong almost bought two strings of firecrackers for the whole village to celebrate, and even said that he would let his wife go home and lie down while he made money.

Of course, Dani slapped her back. What woman wouldn't stay home from work just a few months pregnant? They weren't the wives of capitalists. They were both in debt! If they had more children, they'd have to work even harder!

Of course, she didn't dare to work herself to death. She used to sew the socks until midnight, but now she only takes a break around 10 o'clock in the evening. She used to just eat rice soaked in plain water with pickled mustard greens, but now she is required to eat an egg every day.

The eggs were sent by Liu Ni, who said that she had already paid for them and that the farm did not take them for free. She told her not to worry about eating them as long as she and her child were safe and healthy.

Wang Yong didn't say thank you to his mother-in-law's family and sisters-in-law, but every day after carrying the heavy bags and having free time, he would go to the Ma family's fields to help with the work, as a way of repaying the friendship a little bit.

After meeting Erni and her daughter and confirming that Dani's pregnancy was okay, Sanni packed her bedding and went to the cotton farm in the next county. It was already two days late, so she had to hurry. It would be troublesome if the foreman said he would not hire anyone.

It would take at least two hours to walk there. It was already mid-afternoon, and she calculated that she should be able to get there before dark.

As soon as I reached the village entrance, I met Chen Chunhua who was riding a tricycle back. Chen Chunhua greeted Sanni and asked, "Where are you going?"

Sanni smiled and replied, "Let's go to Su County to pick cotton."

"Ouch, are you walking?" Chen Chunhua pressed the brake handle and nodded to Sanni, "Get in the car, I'll take you there!"

There were bamboo baskets stacked high in the trunk of the car. They were used by Chen Chunhua to store eggs. She usually came back before noon, but for some reason, she was a few hours late today.

Sanni waved her hand, "No need, aunt, I can walk there by myself, you go ahead and do your work!"

"It's okay, come on up. I also want to go to Su County to take a look." Chen Chunhua said, and patted the tricycle again, asking her to get on quickly.

Yesterday, Liu Ni was discussing with her whether Chen Chunhua should just go to the mushroom class. Liu Ni is still learning about cultivation, and then everything would depend on her, which would be tiring and time-consuming. The sooner you learn, the sooner you will prosper.

However, the Mushroom Class was in the neighboring Su County, and she was somewhat resistant to Su County because it was also her mother's home. Although Chen Laicai and Qian Laier had left, she no longer had any good memories there.

Although she had purchased the vegetables from Su County when she was reselling them on the black market, it was the middle of the night and she could pretend to be blind.

Now... she decided to go to her county to see if there were any mushroom classes. If there were, she could just study there instead of going to the next door. So after delivering the egg dishes today, she walked around the county several times, looking for night schools.

We found a night school for her, but there was no mushroom class, so if she wanted to attend the mushroom class, she had to go next door.

Chen Chunhua was speechless, but there was nothing she could do. That's why she said she would go to the next door to take a look.

Since it was a ride, Sanni didn't refuse. She said thank you with a shameless face and got on.

"What's the big deal!" Chen Chunhua started to ride towards the next county again.

"Sanni, are you going to stay there for a month? It will be Chinese New Year when you come back." Chen Chunhua asked.

Sanni placed the blanket she was carrying in front of her, which somewhat shielded her from the cold wind of early winter. When she heard her aunt's question, she quickly shouted in reply.

"I don't know. It depends on whether there are enough people picking cotton this year. Anyway, it will take half a month."

You can't just pat your butt and leave after picking the flowers. You have to pick the flowers and then help dry them. You are paid for each day you work. She will definitely work until the last day.

Chen Chunhua sighed, "When you succeed in learning a foreign language, perhaps the country's foreign trade business will also pick up, and then it will be easier for you to make money." Is there any work that a 19-year-old girl has not done?

Although she knew that Chen Chunhua had her back to her and couldn't see her movements, Sanni still nodded seriously, "Of course, isn't that the reason for learning a foreign language?"

The tricycle slowly rode to the central street of Su County, and then seemed to be blocked by the crowd.

"It's not a festival, why is this county so lively?"

Chen Chunhua stood up on the tricycle, one side high and the other low, wanting to see what was going on in the front of the crowd. But she was still behind Sanni, so she could stand on tiptoe to see higher.

"Ah!" When she saw the scene in front of her clearly, she covered her mouth and exclaimed softly.

"What's wrong?" Chen Chunhua was extremely curious. She was not as tall as Sanni, and she was standing lower. All she could see was the back of the head and the red banner high up, but that was only half of it. The lower half was the human head.

Sanni looked at the banner carefully again, then bent down and whispered in Shen Chunhua's ear.
