"Oh, why are you so shy? Before marriage, you are a golden nipple, after marriage, you are a silver nipple, and after giving birth to a child, you become a dog nipple. The baby is hungry, why are you still shy..."
Qiu Yuling was too lazy to listen to such crazy talk, "Sister-in-law, sit tight." She slapped the donkey on the butt.
The donkey was hit unexpectedly, and with a loud neigh, it broke into a trot. The woman who came to the shaft of the cart and said strange things was almost run over by the wheels.
"This child, well, he is so young and can't be exposed to the wind for long. We will go back first and talk to you later." After Li Qingmei finished speaking, she signaled Qiu Dashan to ride the bicycle back first, and she jogged along, following closely behind.
"What's so cool about that? His tail is almost up in the air. Both adults and children have been spoiled to no end."
"Sister Wang, shut up! New brides are shy. Do you think everyone is the same as you? Just pick it up from the ridge and feed it to them."
"That's nothing. Zhao Laifeng can throw that thing on his head while walking and feed the baby."
The people standing there burst into laughter.
"Li Zhaodi, what are you talking about? If you keep talking nonsense, I'll tear your mouth apart."
"Oh my, isn't this what you boasted about before? You said you didn't delay Tiangong at all. Just do your thing while you're walking, and let the kids eat the kids..."
Many people came forward to testify that she said this herself.
Zhao Laifeng could make fun of others, but she couldn't stand being laughed at by others. She was already embarrassed at this moment. And because several eloquent people were present, she might not be able to win the argument. So she had to put on a sullen face and stop playing with them and went home.
"This person loves to talk about others, but she can't stand it the most. She even gets carried away by a joke."
"Zhao Di, stop talking. Let's go back. Let's go back to cook and heat the kang. Do whatever we need to do."
The wheat field, which was bustling just now, was suddenly deserted.
Qiu Yuling had prepared a lot of things to say, waiting for Li Qingmei to come in and complain about her, but when Li Qingmei came in, she acted as if nothing had happened and didn't mention it at all.
Something must be wrong when things are abnormal, so she went up to Li Qingmei and wanted to know the reason.
"Your mother is not stupid. If your eldest brother wasn't such a fool, you wouldn't have been the one to take the lead in this matter. If I were to scold him, I would scold him. He's like a piece of wood..."
"Exactly, he deserves to be scolded. His wife and child, who just came out of confinement, were stopped and bullied. He has no sense at all. What others said was inappropriate. My sister-in-law is a new daughter-in-law, so it's not easy to get angry. He doesn't make friends with those old women, so why should he be so cowardly?"
"Did you hear that, Qiu Dashan? Don't be like your father. When you're out in the open, if you don't listen to any good or bad words, your face will be as thick as paper. You're a grown man, you have to show off outside, don't you understand?"
Qiu Dashan was sweating profusely after hearing this. He had been taught to be polite, to respect the elderly and to love the young since he was young. Those who were present just now were all his elders. Even though he was unhappy, he was too embarrassed to show it.
"Bah, how can they be considered your elders? You really can't tell the difference between inside and outside." In this respect, he was exactly like his honest father.
It’s just that my daughter has her own personality and is well-liked by others!
"Don't stand here, go in and help your wife." Li Qingmei pushed the man out, so that out of sight, out of mind.
It’s strange to say, when she was in the alley, Li Qingmei felt that she was restricted in everything she did, but as soon as she entered the yard, she immediately felt at ease.
Qiu Yuling understood it; it was the home-field effect. Simply put, whoever owns the territory has the upper hand.
So no matter what this person says, he still feels that he can only feel at ease if he has his own house.
Li Qingmei was now giving orders to her children, her voice particularly loud. Adding Wan Jin, her mother, her son, and their three dogs, the yard was in chaos.
"Mom, can we take a break? Why are you scolding the chicken? Can it understand or improve?" This is not the way to declare sovereignty!
"By the way, don't tell my grandma and the others about my passing the exam to avoid a fuss." Qiu Yuling had already gone into her room, but then she remembered something and came back to give her mother Qiu some special arrangements.
Li Qingmei nodded to indicate that she understood. Her mother-in-law was fine, at least she didn't interfere in this matter. But if her two sisters-in-law knew about it, they might cause some trouble.
The babies’ full moon is not a real full moon day, but an auspicious day set in advance.
After they came back, they were busy for two days, finishing everything that needed to be packed or purchased, and the appointed day arrived.
Early in the morning of that day, Li Qingmei boiled and colored the eggs she had exchanged earlier. She also ate the fish she had brought earlier and several nests of rabbits in the backyard at once.
Before she had finished, there was a noise outside the door. She looked up and saw that her in-laws had all arrived.
"My dear relatives, please come in and sit down. Oh, these are your two pairs of twins, they are both so handsome.
"Yuling, serve some candy to the younger brothers and sisters, and let the in-laws have some water first. Duo'er and the others are still in the room, and they haven't woken up yet. Warm yourself up and go over and take a look. Oh, you don't know, these three little guys look exactly like our Duo'er..."
Just when we were busy, Qiu Yuling's grandmother and several uncles arrived.
The men sat in the main room drinking tea from gaiwan bowls, while the women went to Qiu Dashan's room to see the triplets. By the way, two pairs of twins, boy and girl, were quite rare.
Zhou Hongfang whispered to Wang Xiaomai, "No wonder my nephew's wife is so pregnant. Just look at her mother and you'll know it's her destiny." Wang Xiaomai nodded in agreement. "How amazing!"
The greetings are almost over, it's time for the ceremony.
The three little ones were brought out, lined up from oldest to youngest, and had their hair shaved off one by one.
Grandma Yuling made three small purses, each embroidered with the three brothers' names. She tied the baby's hair with red ropes, put them in the corresponding purses, and gave them to Huang Duoer to keep.
Then, relatives and friends are treated to "yuanzi" and "xi mian". The former means that the baby will "win the first place in the imperial examination" in the future, while the latter means that the baby will "live a long life".
After eating these, we can have today's main course.
As a result, the old lady of the Qiu family arrived late again at this time.
She looked unhappy. She hadn't even arrived yet, but the ceremony was almost over.
But since all the people who came were relatives, even if they had sullen faces, they still sat at the table and ate the meat.
When he left, he actually gave each of his three great-grandsons fifty cents, which was unprecedented.
Li Qingmei chased her out, stuffed three red eggs and a handful of red peanuts into the old lady's hands, and ran back in a hurry without waiting for the old lady to say anything.
Mrs. Qiu paused for a moment, then put the egg and peanuts in her pocket. This was a rare good omen. She'd take it back and give it to Daqing's wife to share in the good fortune.
The three little ones were taken around in circles. Even though each of them had a yellow cloth tiger made by Grandma Huang, it still couldn't calm their increasingly irritable mood.
As expected, no one knew who started it, but the other two immediately followed. For a moment, three great voices were howling one after another!
