Chapter 172 October 9th



This day is the ninth day of October.

After enduring for a month, Feng Yijia is finally leaving the confinement period.

The first thing to do after leaving the confinement period is to wash your hair and take a bath.

Boil a handful of mugwort leaves in water, pour them into a large bathtub, put a stool inside, and sit on the stool to be steamed by the rising steam.

After steaming until the water temperature drops, you can wash it with water and then rinse it with clean warm water.

This is a rule passed down by the older generation in the village, which is said to be able to dispel filth and prevent disease.

As a staunch supporter of these traditional customs, Chen Hongxing personally watched Feng Yijia dress up and did not allow her to be lazy in any aspect.

She kept muttering to herself for the nth time: "I gave birth to four children and none of them got sick. It's because I was very particular.

There must be a reason for the rules and customs that have been passed down from generation to generation.

Don't complain that your mother is too troublesome or has too many things to do, especially since you are weak and have suffered a lot in the past.

Pay more attention to it, it will definitely be good for your health... "

Feng Yijia was sitting in the bathtub and was smoked like a shrimp by the heat.

His whole body was red and he looked like he was almost cooked.

Her body was uncomfortably hot and sticky, and her mother-in-law was nagging her so much that her ears were callused, but none of this could affect her good mood.

Because I will be free soon and will be back to the village soon.

Steaming shrimps was going on in the house, while the Meng family members outside were busy trying to get back to the village.

While hugging his precious grandson and coaxing him, Meng Chenglin directed Meng Qiang and Meng Chao, who had just returned from other places, to move all the food materials stored at home to the truck outside the door.

He is the golden grandson in the family, so he must not be wronged.

The old couple, who now have money, have ordered a lot of things during this period, including common rural banquets such as chicken, duck, fish and meat, as well as less common turtles, shrimps, dried seafood, etc.

The two people who were still very frugal when it came to food and drink, paid for a few tables at a restaurant in the county town the day before, and were planning to hold a full moon banquet when they returned to the village.

Not only for the children, but also for their own face and vanity.

Meng Sheng didn't want to cause trouble, but he understood his parents' thoughts, so he just let them do whatever they wanted.

Anyway, there are people to help with these things, so you don’t have to get involved much.

Of course, he is not idle either. As a caring and responsible husband and father, he is busy taking care of the older and the younger ones all day long.

But now that he has returned to the village, the most important thing for Meng Sheng is to pack up the children's things.

In the month after his son was born, the Ge family, Tao Chengye, Xiao Chen and his younger brothers, the employees of the two stores, neighbors, some business partners, etc., anyone who had a little relationship with him came to give gifts to the child.

Oh, and Xu Xiuping from the provincial capital, as well as my grandparents and my uncle's family who do business in the provincial capital, also mailed things over after hearing the letter.

There were many people giving gifts, and when all the gifts from each family were added up, there was a huge pile of cotton clothes, quilts, small shoes and socks, milk powder, food, etc.

Add to that the things my parents and relatives bought for me, and the things I brought with me when I came to the county town, and a tricycle couldn’t hold them all without compacting them tightly.

Meng Sheng packed his son's things bit by bit with a smile on his face. Although he knew that the child was growing up and many of the things might not be used by him, he was still happy.

This was a gift from someone to his son, but it was given out of consideration for his face and affection.

In his previous life, he hated people and dogs, and had almost no social life after being released from prison. Now that he has been reborn, these gifts are what he has gained in the past six months.

However, the biggest gain in his heart was his wife walking out of the bathroom at this time.

His careful feeding was not wasted. Feng Yijia, who had become rounder than when she was just reborn, no longer looked weak and pitiful as before, but had some of the graceful and bright beauty that came from being raised in wealth.

Her long, wet hair was black and shiny. Because she had not seen the sun during the confinement period, her skin was as white as porcelain, her eyes were bright, her lips were pink and red, and her body was becoming more and more curvy. She was as beautiful as a peony in full bloom, so beautiful that people could not take their eyes off her.

Meng Sheng felt proud and full of love about this, but he felt like his eyes were almost turning green from holding it in.

I haven't had a good meal of meat since I found out my wife was pregnant.

There is a delicious meal in front of you, but you can only look at it every day without eating it. It is really not a life for human beings.

Fortunately, I finally held it in and can have some meat tonight.

Thinking of this, Meng Sheng's eyes wandered over his wife from head to toe, planning this and that, and then that and more.

The naked gaze lingered on his body. Feng Yijia, who was wiping his hair as he walked, knew without thinking who the owner of the gaze was.

He raised his head and glared at Meng Sheng, who looked like a wolf, and whispered, "What are you looking at?

Have you loaded everything into the car?"

Meng Sheng looked around and saw that everyone else in the family was busy. He leaned over to his wife's ear and chuckled, "Look at my beautiful wife!"

After saying that, he took a few steps back and shouted back, "It's almost done. You can leave after you finish packing!"

The pink on Feng Yijia's face deepened by two shades. Just as she was about to speak, she heard Chen Hongxing, who had just finished cleaning the bathtub, say loudly, "Since everything is ready, the second son can take his wife and children and drive away first.

Trucks can only go to the countryside. After you send them home, you still have to come out to transport things.

Otherwise, with so much food, we would need several bicycles to carry people and not be able to carry it back.”

After saying that, he thought for a moment and added, "Also, the house has been unoccupied for about a month, so it must be covered in dust.

Meng Qiang went back with them and helped clean up the house so your sister-in-law wouldn't have nowhere to sit when she returned."

Meng Qiang, who was sweating profusely from moving things, looked at the packed tricycle and asked his mother in confusion, "Where should my second brother and I take the train back home?"

The back bed was packed so tightly that there was no room for anything."

Chen Hongxing took a look and pointed to the carport roof welded to the truck bed, indicating that her eldest son's concerns were not a problem at all.

"If there's no room in the car, just climb onto the roof. It's not like you haven't climbed onto the roof before when you were riding the bus."

Meng Qiang, who was once supported by the whole family in his studies and was regarded as the hope of the family: ·······.

Well, the eldest and second brothers are right. Now that they have a grandson, the son is nothing in the eyes of his parents.
