In fact, Xu Yaoqiang didn't think that much about it. At first, he just felt that the two of them were in the same boat, so he paid more attention to Xiang Wanqin.
Xiang Wanqin is a grateful person who also knows how to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages. The Xu family treated her and her two children well, so she reciprocated in large ways. When the Xu family needed help, she was the first to rush to their aid.
Furthermore, the Xu family holds a very important position in Xujia Village. As long as the Xu family takes good care of the mother and her two children, they will not be bullied in Xujia Village.
As they spent more time together, Xu Yaoqiang found it easy and comfortable to talk to Xiang Wanqin, and because of this, he often helped the mother and her two children.
No matter how capable Xiang Wanqin was, she was still just a woman, and many tasks were still difficult for her no matter how hard she tried.
With Xu Yaoqiang's help, life became smoother and smoother.
The two became close, and people in the brigade started gossiping about it.
Xiang Wanqin didn't take it to heart. She had no such intention and always felt it was impossible. In addition, she was hurt too deeply by Xu Yaoyang, and she really didn't want to remarry. She just wanted to raise her two children well.
But she didn't expect Xu Yaoqiang to be so enthusiastic towards her. Even so, she still didn't think about a romantic relationship.
Xu Yaoqiang didn't have any other thoughts at the moment; he just liked talking to Xiang Wanqin, so they naturally became closer.
It is said that those involved are often confused while bystanders see things clearly. Xu Zeyu immediately sensed something was wrong when he saw Xu Yaoqiang's smile.
Xu Zeyu was precocious; he didn't object to Xu Yaoqiang finding someone else, but he felt that Xiang Wanqin was not suitable.
He didn't want his grandparents, uncle, and aunt to feel awkward if Xu Yaoqiang and Xiang Wanqin had any issues.
After all, Xiang Wanqin used to be Xu Yaoyang's wife.
If his father and Xiang Wanqin got together, what would the people in the village say?
Anyway, he felt it wasn't appropriate.
Actually, Xu Mingyang was also aware of Xu Yaoqiang's problem; he saw Xu Yaoqiang smile at Xiang Wanqin more than once.
They were both men, and they both knew perfectly well what that smile meant.
Xu Mingyang wasn't old-fashioned. He thought it would be a good thing if the two of them, both unmarried, got together. But what worried Xu Mingyang was the old couple in the second wife's family.
If his second brother really marries Xiang Wanqin, then Xu Yaoyang's two children will definitely be brought over as well. Xu Yaoyang is already having difficulty having children, so would the second wife's parents not mind that these two children become the eldest wife's children?
Xu Mingyang felt that if that were the case, there would be a lot of trouble later.
Grandma Xu found so many women for Xu Yaoqiang, but he didn't like any of them. When he finally found one he liked, Xu Mingyang couldn't bear to discourage his second brother.
This is also a problem that Xu Mingyang has been struggling with recently.
December is a lively month in Xujia Village, with activities such as slaughtering pigs for the New Year, distributing workshop profits to households, and showing open-air movies.
However, none of this mattered to Xu Xinning, who was in postpartum confinement; she couldn't even leave her small room of about ten square meters.
Elders have many rules: this can't be done and that can't be eaten.
Even though Xu Xinning is a very skilled doctor, she still had to listen to her elders during her postpartum period.
The thing that most women in their postpartum period can't stand is not being able to shower or wash their hair, and Xu Xinning is no exception.
However, she has a space, and there is a hot spring in the Medicine King Valley in the space, so she often sneaks into the space to soak in it when it is quiet at night.
At this moment, Mu Jingheng was frustrated. He was also afraid that Xu Xinning might develop health problems if she didn't take proper care of herself during her postpartum period. However, she slipped into his space without him noticing for a moment. What angered him was that she could come and go freely in his space, but he couldn't enter hers no matter what.
This is similar to the idea that your money is my money, and my money is still my money.
Every time this happened, Mu Jingheng could only helplessly wait for Xu Xinning to come out.
Xu Xinning was always incredibly smug at this moment.
She loved seeing Mu Jingheng looking angry but helpless, his face looking like he was constipated.
Xu Xinning felt that her body felt more and more comfortable after soaking in the hot spring.
The hot spring in the space is nourished by so many medicinal herbs, so it is naturally different from the ordinary hot springs outside.
Ordinary hot springs may cause various infections in postpartum women, but the hot springs in this space are different. Although they cannot compare to sacred springs, they still have a certain restorative effect.
Since Mu Jingheng couldn't stop Xu Xinning from going into the space to soak in the hot spring, he brought the child along to join her.
He believed that Xu Xinning would not joke about her own body.
The two children also loved soaking in the hot springs. Once they entered the water, they seemed to gain freedom, especially the older sister, whose little legs kicked with great force, while the younger brother was much more docile.
Mu Jingheng noticed that Xu Xinning seemed to recover quickly after soaking in the hot spring; her fair and smooth skin made him itch with desire.
Not only Xu Xinning, but the two children also seemed to have grown even better, and he himself, though he didn't know if it was just his imagination, felt that his skin had also improved.
Mu Jingshu was a sensitive child. Every day when she saw Xu Xinning, she would always gravitate towards her and repeat the same sentence every day: "Second sister-in-law, how come you still smell so good even though you don't shower or wash your hair? I see other women who are in confinement and they are so dirty! As expected of my second sister-in-law, she always smells so good and looks so beautiful. My second brother is so lucky."
The first month of the lunar calendar arrived quickly.
This year's Lunar New Year was more lively than ever before at the Xu family home, with even Xu Chunhua bringing her children over early.
Xu Chunhua was able to bring her child here thanks to Xu Xinning.
There are two jeeps parked at home. Xu Mingyang and Mu Jingheng might drive them away when they go to work, but they will definitely be empty during the first month of the lunar calendar.
In addition, the Xu family had three more little ones, so Grandma Xu asked Xu Mingyang and the others to bring back all the children they could from outside the family.
Isn't the point of the first month of the lunar calendar to have a lively atmosphere?
It wasn't just Xu Chunhua's family that was brought back; Xu Daya's family was also among them.
The old man still couldn't let go of Xu Daya, who had become mentally challenged.
Perhaps they could still hate Xu Daya if she hadn't gone mad, but now that she's gone mad, the old folks just can't bring themselves to hate her anymore.
Actually, Xu Xinning felt very uncomfortable about having a car pick up Xu Daya. Why should she use her resources to pick up someone who wanted her dead?
Besides Xu Xinning, Mu Jingheng was also gritting his teeth. He could never forget the pain of his past life. Sometimes when he felt very happy, he would feel like he was in a dream.
But the elderly in the family are getting on in years, and especially after having their own children, they have come to understand the deep emotional bond they feel.
With so many people in the house, it was quite lively, and Xu Xinning's postpartum period wasn't so boring anymore. Every day, people were coming and going from her room.
The two little ones also seemed very excited.
And then there's Xiao Liu'er.
Since there were more people in the family, Xiao Liu'er has been sent to Xu Xinning's place by Kuang Meizhu early every morning.
Little Liu loves seeing the two little ones every day.
