Chapter 161 Overcoat Turns into Jacket



Compared to the mealtime of the Southwest couple, Grandma's main room was much more lively, with Xuemei bustling in and out, and Cuihua couldn't stop her.

Finally, he simply ignored it, went back to his room, and found a piece of milky white fine cotton cloth, about two meters long and one and a half meters wide.

Judging by the dates, the baby in the southeast should be born in May or June next year. This piece of fabric is very soft, and it's just right to make two T-shirts and shorts for the little one.

They also found a swaddle blanket, diaper pads, and a whole bunch of other baby supplies, clothes, and pants that Yan Xiaonan used when she was little.

"Hey, what's in that cloth bag at the bottom of the box?" Cuihua exclaimed as she opened it. "Oh no, oh no!"

It turned out to be the coat that Yan Daqiang's wife had bought for Yan Xiaonan. It was too big at the time, so she wrapped it in cloth and put it at the bottom of the trunk.

Later, as the family's financial situation improved, Yan Xiaonan had more clothes and forgot about this coat.

She quickly grabbed her coat and headed towards the main room: "Nan Nan, Nan Nan, Mom forgot about this coat. Do you think you can still wear it?"

Yan Xiaonan looked at it and realized, "Oh dear, it must have been my aunt who bought it. I've forgotten about it myself."

He quickly shook out the coat and put it on. It was a little short, so the coat became an overcoat.

The length was just right up to Yan Xiaonan's buttocks. The sleeves were a little short, but it was passable if you didn't look closely. The collar, however, was just right to be buttoned up.

The vibrant, tender green color further accentuated Yan Xiaonan's rosy lips and white teeth, as black as lacquer.

Grandma Yan was overjoyed; her precious child had finally grown up.

Xuemei came out of the kitchen and exclaimed, "Where did this little fairy come from? Let your sister give you a good kiss!"

Yan Xiaonan actually ran over and pressed her little face against Xuemei's. Xuemei hugged Yan Xiaonan's head and kissed her hard.

My baby, you'd better catch it, let's share in your aunt's good fortune.

Wearing a coat—no, an overcoat—Yan Xiaonan stunned Bei Nan, who was returning home from school. Bei Nan had always thought Nannan was the most beautiful girl she had ever seen, but now she looked like a fairy.

After feeding the pigs and washing himself, Yan Xiaoqiang was even more proud and complacent. "That's my daughter, a member of the Yan family!"

"Cuihua, Cuihua, bring me a bottle of wine, I want to celebrate."

Grandma Yan asked curiously, "Qiangzi, what are you celebrating?"

What am I supposed to celebrate? Yeah, what am I supposed to celebrate?

Bei Nan replied, "Grandma, my dad wants to celebrate that Nan Nan can finally wear this dress."

“Yes, Bei Nan is right.” Yan Xiaoqiang looked at Bei Nan with admiration. Bei Nan realized that her father wasn’t so hard to deal with.

Yan Xiaonan was even more proud, saying, "If a piece of clothing can make the whole family happy, then I'm willing to be a fashion model."

Xuemei ate quite a lot today, and Grandma Yan even brought out some malted milk powder: "Xuemei, eat more now, so that the baby will be easier to take care of after birth."

"Grandma, this is food I bought for you, how can you give it to me?" Xue Mei firmly refused.

Grandma Yan got angry: "If you don't want to acknowledge me as your grandma, then don't. I know you've all grown up now and want to fly away."

Xuemei panicked and stammered, "Grandma, I...I..."

Yan Xiaonan picked up the malted milk powder and stuffed it into Xue Mei's arms: "The milk isn't for you to eat, it's for her great-grandson to eat, you have no right to refuse."

Xuemei felt a warmth in her heart; this was family, such a blissful feeling.

Cuihua came out carrying a large pile of things: "Xuemei, these are all things that Nannan used when she was little. You can take them if you don't mind."

Dislike? What a joke! How could you dislike something from Nannan? We cherish it dearly.

Xuemei hurriedly went back to her room, took out a bed sheet, and packed up all of Nannan's childhood belongings.

"Mom, if there are any clothes that Nannan can't wear, give them to me." Xuemei was getting greedy.

"If it's for the boy, would you also let him wear Nan Nan's clothes?" Cuihua asked.

Xuemei~ Mother, didn't you expect me to give birth to a daughter?

"Nan Nan, it's the weekend tomorrow, shall we go up the mountain to hunt pheasants?" Yan Bei Nan asked Nan Nan.

Yan Xiaonan nodded. It had been a while since she had been up the mountain, and she missed Zhongnan very much.

That scumbag Zhongnan doesn't even bother to come back and see me.

Bei Nan was excited. Southwest and Nan Nan had taken him to the mountains to hunt pheasants once, and they had even roasted them over a fire on the spot. The taste was absolutely amazing.

I quickly went to the yard, found a basket, and packed everything I needed for the barbecue inside: salt, a matchbox, bowls, and chopsticks.

What else? Oh right, honey. Nan Nan said it tastes better with honey on it, but the honey is with the milk, so Nan Nan has to go get it. If I go by myself, I'll definitely get a beating.

We also need to bring water and dry food. Oh, and some pickles too, because for some reason, we've pickled a lot of them at home.

But it's really delicious pickled. I didn't see my sister-in-law eating a jar of pickled vegetables like a snack.

"Nan Nan, I'll go talk to Ma Mingyuan later. He's been wanting to come up the mountain with me for a long time. If I don't take him soon, he'll probably start crying," Bei Nan said.

Yan Xiaonan thought of Ma Minghua: "Third Brother, you should call Ma Minghua, otherwise I'll be in trouble later."

North and South, what a troublesome person.

Upon hearing this, Cuihua hurriedly went to boil water, cook eggs, and make pancakes. Her daughter and son were going out to play tomorrow, so she would bring plenty of food and drinks.

Upon receiving the news, Ma Minghua and Ma Mingyuan started making a fuss, with Ma Mingchun following behind Ma Mingyuan: "Brother, I want to go too."

Mrs. Ma was also rummaging through drawers and cupboards at home. The three of them were going to go to the mountains with Nan Nan to catch pheasants early tomorrow morning.

That spendthrift Ma Minghua wants to make her own two-ingredient steamed buns, and she says she wants at least ten.

But my husband is supportive. The kids have been playing together since they were little, and they'll help each other out when they grow up. What a wonderful thing!

Mrs. Ma rolled her eyes. "You just say it's okay, but you don't know that half of the rice and flour in the house is missing?"

Village Chief Ma chuckled, "It's like you think if they don't go out, you won't need rice or flour to cook. They still need just as much."

Mrs. Ma choked. How could she have forgotten this? They only needed ten steamed buns when they went out, which might not be enough at home.

Also, whenever he went out with Yan Xiaonan, he would always come back with a full load of things, such as wild fruits, black fungus, and even yams.

Having figured things out, Mrs. Ma became more efficient and actually managed to make ten steamed buns with the two-ingredient dough, along with some pickles and water.

The next morning, Ma Mingyuan and the others, carrying machetes and ropes, and baskets on their backs, arrived at the Yan family's door: "North and South, South and South, let's go!"

Upon hearing the noise, Bei Nan and Nan Nan quickly grabbed their machetes, slung their baskets over their shoulders, and went outside, with Zhong Zi barking as he followed.

As soon as Ma Minghua saw Yan Xiaonan's clothes, she exclaimed, "Oh my, Nannan, you're so beautiful! I love you so much!"

The innocent words reached Grandma Yan's ears, and the corners of her mouth involuntarily turned up. This girl, how could she possibly like dying?
