In the end, Liang Shengdi had finished most of the chicken soup, including the meat and soup, and even chewed the bones into crumbs and swallowed them.
In the end, Lin Wenxuan was afraid that she would get sick from eating too much, so he tried hard to snatch the soup from her.
Zhang Xiaonv was secretly glad that she didn't bring out all the soup, but left a large bowl of chicken soup to use for cooking the next day or the day after tomorrow. Otherwise, Liang Shengdi would definitely have finished it all.
On the wedding night, Liang Shengdi was sitting on the bed and hiccuping constantly.
Lin Wenxuan blushed and reached out to rub her stomach, and asked her if she wanted to go out for a walk to help digest the food.
Liang Shengdi shook her head.
"I've been gone for so long, I don't want to leave anymore."
"Besides, if you've finally managed to eat something, you definitely want it to stay in your stomach for a while. Why would you have to digest it? That would be such a waste."
Lin Wenxuan coughed a few times out of amusement, then continued to rub her belly.
When he had almost finished massaging her, he blew out the oil lamp and helped her lie down.
A half moon shone through the window. Liang Shengdi blinked nervously under the moon, then stood there waiting for a long time, but there was no response from the people next to her.
She turned her head to look, only to find that Lin Wenxuan was also looking at her.
"You... aren't going to do anything?"
“…What are you moving?”
Liang Shengdi frowned for a while, then finally spoke the truth.
"Your mother asked us to have more children. How can we have more children if you don't do anything?"
The moonlight was dim, but one could still see that Lin Wenxuan's face turned red instantly.
"There's no need to rush for that day... Aren't you still holding on?"
"That's right..." Liang Shengdi touched her stomach. Although she didn't regret eating so much, she still felt uncomfortable feeling full. If it really pressed down... she was afraid she would vomit.
"Then I'll eat less tomorrow and you can do it later."
He patted Lin Wenxuan's hand like an elder comforting a younger one, then turned over and fell asleep, leaving Lin Wenxuan alone with a red face under the moonlight.
When Liang Shengdi was eating that chicken soup, she really thought she had married into a wealthy family.
Dry rice with chicken soup! The kind that makes you full! This is a wealthy family!
She said to eat less tomorrow, but she really thought that her family ate like this for every meal.
As a result, I had six-grain porridge in the morning and rice soaked in chicken soup in the evening.
On the third day, have six-grain porridge in the morning and rice soaked in chicken soup in the evening.
On the fourth day, have six-grain porridge in the morning and thin porridge with pickled mustard greens in the evening.
Liang Shengdi: ...
Well, at least these two meals a day can fill me up. Better than eating Guanyin soil, right?
There was not much heavy work in the fields in winter. Lin Wenxuan went to help the wealthy farmers in the village to make wine and earn some pocket money. Zhang Xiaonv took Liang Shengdi to the village to collect fertilizer with others, and also had to look after the rapeseed in the fields at home.
Liang Shengdi probably really ate the Lin family's food and did the Lin family's work. She dug the river mud shovel by shovel, digging harder than the young men in the village.
When she came back and saw Zhang Xiaonv washing and cleaning at home, she would do some sewing and mending; when Zhang Xiaonv went out to sell eggs, she would go to the fields to catch insects and bring them back to feed the chickens, and she would also chop up rotten vegetable leaves mixed with grass to feed the chickens.
The remaining two chickens, one male and one female, were raised by her to be shiny and plump. She would look at every egg laid by the chicken under the oil lamp to see if the egg could hatch a chick.
After collecting a few fertilized eggs, she thought about letting the chickens sit on the brood, but it was too cold and the chickens were not willing to do so, so she gave up.
There are many small hills near their village. Zhang Xiaonv took her there several times. After Liang Shengdi dug up winter bamboo shoots for the first time, she often went there for a walk whenever she had time, and from time to time she would bring back two or three bamboo shoots to add to the dishes at home.
Everyone in the village said that the Lin family had found a treasure. They married a hard-working person without spending a penny.
Zhang Xiaonv was also very happy to hear this.
"She has bright eyes, but her brain is not very bright. She is a bit stupid. I dare not let her be the housekeeper."
This story starts with the day when we celebrated the New Year and worshipped our ancestors.
Zhang Xiaonv asked her if she could cook rice soup.
Liang Shengdi shook her head, saying that they didn't make soup or rice for ancestor worship.
Zhang Xiaonv thought that customs in other places might be different, but cooking should be basically the same, so she thought, "I'll teach you the specific matters and you go and cook."
When she gets too old to do it or passes away, all these things will belong to Liang Shengdi.
Liang Shengdi nodded, indicating that it was okay, and went to cook happily.
The rice in the porridge must be dry rice, so Liang Shengdi cooked a big pot of rice, the kind that can fill up three meals a day, probably enough for their family of three to eat for two or three days.
By the time Zhang Xiaonu saw it, the aroma of the food was already overwhelming, and it was so fragrant that she almost fainted.
As for the vegetables, Zhang Xiaonv bought all the vegetables for the New Year, and then Liang Shengdi cut them all because Zhang Xiaonv said she wanted to make eight-treasure dishes.
It was New Year's Day, and Zhang Xiaonv really didn't want to curse, but she couldn't hold it back. She cursed "Get out!" several times, then drove Liang Shengdi out of the kitchen and decided to do it herself.
The scolding even startled Lin Wenxuan, who had just returned home for the New Year with his temporary work wages. Seeing his wife standing at the door with a wronged look on her face, he curiously asked what was wrong. What had happened?
Liang Shengdi is really wronged.
How do I say this?
In the past, her family didn't do much of the cooking or ancestor worship work because they were afraid that she would steal food.
What she called helping with ancestor worship was more of a job, such as chopping wood, fetching water, cleaning, and putting away dishes.
If you ask her to cook, she will definitely cook according to whether she can fill herself up.
Lin Wenxuan looked at the pot of rice with amusement, and could only coax his mother to calm down, and by the way, put the few dollars he earned this month into Zhang Xiaonv's hands.
"We are still young! We always need you to remind us more. Don't be angry, don't be angry! Our ancestors will be happy to see that our family has so much to eat this year!"
The rice has been cooked, how can it be changed again?
Of course not.
Just like marrying a daughter-in-law, no matter how stupid she is, you have to swallow your anger and accept it.
However, Zhang Xiaonv no longer dared to let Liang Shengdi cook, and the money would never fall into her hands, for fear that she would accidentally spend it.
Liang Shengdi knew that she had done something wrong, so she could only work hard in other areas.
After the Chinese New Year, when the weather gets warmer, she will take a machete to cut bamboo. She said she knows how to weave bamboo, and then she can sell the bamboo for money and buy food!
Zhang Xiaonv was also happy to hear this, and she gradually forgot about the matter of the pot of rice. However, before Liang Shengdi could drag home a few bamboos, she vomited all over the place.
She was still regretting that she had vomited all her breakfast today, while Zhang Xiaonv rolled her eyes at her daughter-in-law, feeling that something was wrong.
She took Liang Shengdi directly to the village doctor to check her pulse. The doctor said that she was pregnant and the pregnancy had been about two months.
Liang Shengdi:? Huh?
Zhang Xiaonv clasped her hands together and thanked the heavens, the earth, the ancestors and the Bodhisattva for blessing the Lin family. Then she paid the medical fee and happily dragged Liang Shengdi home.
