After Brother Hu and Father Zanzi returned the hairpin last time, they didn't send back the pastries and candies to avoid an awkward meeting. He had no romantic feelings for her and thought they would gradually fade away, but unexpectedly, he sold rabbits twice more and sent her food twice more.
There was twice as much food as last time.
Is he stupid? He buys such expensive pastries and candies without hesitation, and so many at once. She doesn't have anything he could possibly want from her, so why does she keep giving them to him every time?
She wanted to tell him that he didn't need to send any more, as he had already sent enough.
But Fan Erzhu and Fan Sanzhu were also by his side, and their only time alone together these past few days was no longer possible.
Just as Ding Jiajia was about to refuse, she heard Fan Erzhu's voice: "My mother said that our family has a lot of land and many able-bodied men. We'll have a meal every day, and during busy farming seasons, we can even have three meals a day!"
"My mother also said that pregnant women should be treated well and exempted from farm work! They only need to do the housework."
However, the housework isn't strenuous; it's mostly just cooking, sweeping, and washing everyone's clothes.
Doing these chores won't affect the baby in my belly. My mother said that you can't spoil a woman too much; she has to do the chores she's supposed to do.
Wang Chunhua, who was walking on a small path in the nearby village, stopped in her tracks upon hearing these words. She stood on tiptoe and craned her neck, trying to hear more clearly, afraid of missing even the slightest detail.
Fan Sanzhu nodded hurriedly: "Yes, my mother also said that whoever gives birth to the eldest son and grandson of our Fan family will be a great hero!"
However, Mother added a sentence: "Even meritorious officials should not be arrogant."
My mother also said that once we earn money...
The two of them took turns praising the positive aspects of the story.
He secretly thought to himself, with a touch of smug satisfaction, that Ding Jiajia must be incredibly smitten…
"Don't buy me white steamed buns and meat buns, I don't like them," Ding Jiajia replied lightly.
She used to think that the steamed buns and mantou in Fucheng were delicious, until she tasted the food cooked by Sister Shuiqing.
Even the steamed buns and mantou made by Sister Shuiqing are several times tastier than those in the city!
What she said was true.
How could anyone not like white flour steamed buns and meat buns?
Fan Erzhu and Fan Sanzhu immediately understood: was this a rejection?
The two men's affection for Ding Jiajia immediately increased. If it were any other girl, she would have already agreed. Only Ding Jiajia could resist her desires, just to leave a good impression on them.
Zhang Chunhua, walking along the village path, suddenly swallowed a large mouthful of saliva.

Those are big meat buns and white flour steamed buns from the capital city, and Ding Jiajia actually said she didn't like them!
She's so fake.
Wait, the Fan brothers are buying these two things for Ding Jiajia? Why?
Surely they're not thinking about marriage.
Thinking about it carefully, it's not impossible. After all, she has four sons, so Sun Jinhua must have been really anxious—otherwise she wouldn't have offered such good terms.
Three meals a day, no farm work, and being a hero to the entire Fan family if she gave birth to a boy, plus white flour, fine grains, and meat to eat... Ding Jiajia is really stupid, she can't even grasp this opportunity!
In an instant, Zhang Chunhua realized that Hu Wenhua wasn't the only one she could do.
