Chapter 62 My wife's name is Jiang Xinbai
Sun Erni glanced at Xu Baoju, said hello to everyone else and went straight upstairs. She was not angry with the fool.
"Hey, has Sun Erni changed her personality?" Xu Baoju was confused. Normally, Sun Erni would get angry whenever she said this, so why was she silent today?
"Baoju, you should do more good deeds instead of always poking at other people's feelings. We are neighbors, we see each other every day, so just say less." Someone nearby who couldn't stand it said.
"Then I'm telling the truth, why can't we tell the truth..." As Xu Baoju was talking, she saw everyone looking at her with disapproving expressions. She immediately stopped talking and said, "Okay, I won't say anything anymore. Really, no one likes to hear the truth these days."
On the way back, Sun Erni was thinking something and took a detour to Dayue River to try her luck. Unexpectedly, she really found one. She spent 1 yuan to buy a two-pound grass carp, and she would stew it into soup for Xinbai later. This was also the reason why she didn't dare to get involved with Xu Baoju, in case her dog nose smelled the fishy smell.
Sun Erni was very skillful and cooked a fish in just two or three strokes. She dripped a few drops of oil into the hot pan and let the fish slide down the side of the pan. With a few "sizzling" sounds, the pan made crackling sounds. After frying one side, she quickly turned the fish over with a spatula. She didn't pour the freshly boiled hot water into the pan until both sides were fried until golden brown. As soon as the water was poured in, the whole room was filled with the aroma of fish.
"Oh, look at my brain, I forgot to put the ginger in." Sun Erni said as she quickly cut a few slices of ginger and threw them in, then covered the pot and let the fish soup simmer slowly.
"Mom, what are you cooking? It smells so good." When it was almost done, Li Huifen pushed the door open with her bag on her back and sniffed the air hard.
"What else can I cook? I'll make grass carp soup for Xinbai. Unfortunately, I didn't buy tofu, so I'll put some green leaves in it later! Okay, I've already cooked the meal, so you can just stir-fry some green vegetables later, and you can have grass carp tonight, too."
As Sun Erni spoke, she scooped the fish soup from the pot into the thermos little by little with a large spoon.
Li Huifen, who was standing by, watched anxiously as her mother-in-law finished serving all the soup. She stammered, "Mom, there's no more soup..."
"You eat fish meat, but it's not easy to drink soup. I'll make it for you." Sun Erni said as she picked up the kettle beside her and poured most of the water into the pot. Then she quickly scooped two spoonfuls of salt into it and stirred it. A new pot of fish soup was ready.
"Look, you don't need to stir-fry the dishes for dinner. Just add some greens and each person has half a bowl of fish soup." The more Sun Erni spoke, the smarter she felt. It was a great deal to share one dish with the whole family.
"..." Li Huifen looked at the clear fish soup in the pot and thought, never mind, at least there is still fish meat.
At this time, Su Qiuyan also came back. She smiled and said, "Mom, I ran into a few aunts downstairs. They said Xinbai had given birth in the hospital. How about I go and see?"
Sun Erni waved her hand and said, "No need for you guys. I'll go to the hospital soon. Oops, I forgot about myself and the third brother." She was so busy that she forgot about her dinner, but when she saw the clock on the wall pointed to five o'clock, she was afraid that she would be too late, so she left first. After all, she wouldn't starve to death if she skipped a meal.
Su Qiuyan looked at her mother-in-law who was hurriedly walking out with a thermos cup, and she didn't know what she was thinking, but she quickly came to her senses and asked Li Huifen, "Sister-in-law, what are you cooking for dinner?"
"What else are you cooking? Look, mom has already arranged it. This pot of fish soup is all ours. We can just add some vegetables later." Li Huifen said unhappily, pointing at the fish soup that was boiling in front of her.
Su Qiuyan was stunned, then nodded and said with a smile: "Okay, then I'll wash the vegetables. If we have time after dinner, let's go to the hospital to see Xinbai!"
Speaking of Jiang Xinbai, Li Huifen was really curious. She came close to Su Qiuyan and asked in a low voice: "Hey, Qiuyan, do you think that my third sister-in-law can give birth to a son? Oh, why am I so nervous? I'm even more nervous than if I gave birth myself."
Su Qiuyan paused while cutting vegetables and pursed her lips, "Sister-in-law, we'll know soon, why are you so nervous?" To be honest, she was a little conflicted, as she hoped Jiang Xinbai could fulfill his wish and give birth to a son, but she also didn't want her to give birth to a son.
I hope it’s because Jiang Xinbai asked me to take over the shift, giving me the opportunity to make money. I don’t hope it’s because everyone has daughters, so why should I have a special one?
Originally, her parents-in-law loved the third brother and his wife the most. If the third brother's wife gave birth to another son, she dared to say that her parents-in-law would definitely give their hearts to the third brother and his wife.
"That's right. Hurry up, serve the food and we'll have dinner when they come back. Let's eat quickly and then go to the hospital." Li Huifen became more and more excited as she spoke.
When Sun Erni saw her two daughters-in-law in the hospital, she frowned and asked, "Why are you here? Don't you have to go to work tomorrow?"
Li Huifen walked forward with a smile, looked towards the delivery room, and said with a smile: "Mom, my third sister-in-law hasn't given birth yet. Qiuyan and I are worried, so we also want to come to the hospital to see her."
"Yes, Mom, how is Xinbai? Did the doctor say when she will give birth?" Su Qiuyan also asked. Both of them looked very worried and anxious.
"No, there's no sound at all, and we can't get in." Sun Erni said as she saw Yang Jinsheng put his ear to the door of the delivery room. She quickly walked over and asked, "How is it? Did you hear anything?"
Yang Jinsheng was about to answer when the door opened. He looked at the nurse with an embarrassed look on his face, who was holding the child in her arms and looking at him in surprise.
"Well, I'm just anxious..."
Sun Erni's eyes lit up and she immediately came to the nurse, "Hey, this is mine, right? Look at the swaddling clothes, they are all the same. Nurse, is it a boy or a girl?"
The nurse was stunned, looked down at the child in her arms, and replied, "Girl."
Sun Erni's eyes went dark, her legs went limp, and she took several steps back unconsciously, muttering, "I knew it, I knew it..."
Li Huifen and Su Qiuyan naturally heard what the nurse said. They looked at each other, with uncontrollable joy on their faces.
But he still stepped forward and supported Sun Erni, "Mom, my third brother's wife and her daughter are safe, how great!"
"Yeah, yeah, you're going to be a grandmother again."
Seeing his two sisters-in-law supporting their mother, Yang Jinsheng anxiously approached the nurse and looked down at the baby in the cradle, but soon he could no longer smile. "It's a little dark! Xiaobai is very white, and I'm not dark either. How come the baby is so dark? Nurse, did you give birth to the wrong baby?"
The nurse rolled her eyes at him and said, "How could they have taken the wrong child? This is Hu Yueyue's child."
"But my wife's name is Jiang Xinbai!" Yang Jinsheng screamed.
