Chapter 133 Daughter-in-law is pregnant

Early spring is more suitable for planting things. Farmers in the entire Shuangwang area are busy planting this today and that tomorrow.

In addition to planting crops, many families in Naye Village have also allocated manpower to cultivate orchards, which makes them even busier.

Deng Shirong has not been idle either. Although Litchi Mountain mainly grows Guiwei lychees, he has also reserved a number of tree pits to plant longan, jackfruit, mango, star fruit, bayberry, Sanhua plum, persimmon and other fruit trees.

By the time all the common fruit trees in Bobai County were planted, it was already the end of the first lunar month.

After dinner that day, Jiang Dehu said, "Uncle (using the Hakka dialect Qgong, some big guys said it's difficult to read, so let's change it back), it's almost time now, how about I go back tomorrow and bring back the five puppies of my sixteenth uncle?"

Deng Shirong nodded and said, "Okay, then bring it back!" After that, he took out five dollars and handed it to his nephew-in-law.

Seeing this, Jiang Dehu hurriedly said, "Uncle, you don't have to give so much money, just give a few cents as a token of appreciation!"

In Shuangwang Territory, if you bring a puppy home to raise, you must pay.

Especially for puppies brought back from the mother's home, if you don't give money, it is called "biting off the way to the mother's home", which is unlucky.

Of course, as long as you give money instead of taking the puppy home for free, it will be fine. Even if you only give one cent, it means you have given money, which proves that the puppy was bought with money.

Deng Shirong stuffed the money directly into his hand and said with a smile: "Although we are relatives, we can't let them suffer a loss. After all, your sixteenth uncle has taken care of five puppies for more than two months. One dollar per puppy is not too much."

After all, it was not his own puppy, so Jiang Dehu did not refuse and took the money.

The next morning, Jiang Dehu rode the Forever bicycle back again and brought back the five puppies from his uncle's house.

Deng Shirong left two of the cats at home, and asked Jiang Dehu to take the remaining three to Litchi Mountain to raise.

…

The first day of the second lunar month is Jingzhe.

This is the third solar term among the twenty-four solar terms.

On this day, there was a happy event in Deng Shirong's family. His eldest daughter-in-law was pregnant!

"Good! Good! Good!"

Upon hearing the news, Deng Shirong was so happy that he said "good" three times.

"That's great, congratulations, sister-in-law!" Deng Yunzhen also congratulated with a look of surprise on her face.

Zhang Xiuping smiled and reminded: "Ah Zhen, keep your voice down, don't let outsiders hear it!"

Because the fetus is still unstable in the first three months of pregnancy, whether in this era or in the future, when you are just pregnant, you generally won't tell anyone else except your relatives. The news will only be spread after three months when the fetus is stable.

Deng Yunzhen naturally understood this and stuck out her tongue embarrassedly.

Deng Shirong said with a smile on his face: "Sister Ping, from now on, don't do anything. Always pay attention to your body to prevent catching a cold. Don't get too excited. Let Zhen accompany you for a walk every morning. When Yuntai comes back in the afternoon, let him accompany you for a walk too..."

He didn't mention going to bed early and getting up early. In those days, there was no electricity in the countryside, so everyone went to bed early and got up early! As for diet, he didn't say anything either, because it was up to him as a father to decide what to eat every day.

Zhang Xiuping felt her father-in-law's concern from his advice, and said with a smile: "I know, Dad!"

In this era, every family in the rural area has to give birth to several children, so pregnancy is actually not a big deal for rural people. You just need to pay a little attention in the first three months of pregnancy, and after three months, you have to do what you need to do!

It was even very common for women to give birth to their children while working.

Deng Shirong is a man who has experienced the future, so his thoughts are naturally very different from those of today's rural people. After giving some instructions, he began to think about what dishes to cook for his eldest daughter-in-law in the afternoon. This pregnant woman requires balanced nutrition, so he will try to cook as many dishes as possible and just reduce the portion of each dish.

After thinking for a while, Deng Shirong took out five yuan and handed it to his eldest daughter, saying, "Ah Zhen, go to Changwang's house and buy a chicken. Make some soup for your sister-in-law this afternoon. This chicken soup is more nutritious."

"Okay!" Deng Yunzhen reached out to take the money and prepared to go buy a chicken.

The number of chickens raised in the village has increased sharply since last year. Every family raises at least a dozen chickens, so it is very easy to buy chickens.

Zhang Xiuping said quickly, "Dad, we have good food at home. There is no need to buy chicken to make soup."

Deng Shirong smiled and said, "From now on, you won't be eating alone. The little one in your belly needs to eat too. I will make soup for you every day. No matter if you have a good appetite or not, try to eat a little bit of everything. This way, you will have a balanced diet, which is good for the growth and development of your child."

Zhang Xiuping was really touched when she heard this. She knew exactly what treatment her elder sister-in-law and younger sister-in-law received when they got married and were pregnant. Also, when other young wives in the village were pregnant, at most they had to do less work in the first three months, but their food was basically the same as usual, with no special treatment.

But from what my father-in-law said, he would make soup for her every day. Anything that can be described as "stew" must be a good thing.

Other pregnant women may not be able to drink stewed soup more than three times from the time they become pregnant to the time their babies are born, but she can drink it every day since she knew she was pregnant. Not to mention the young wives in the village, even the young wives in the city probably don't get such treatment, right?

Zhang Xiuping was so moved that her eyes turned red and she said, "Thank you, Dad!"

…

In the afternoon, when Deng Yuntai came back from work, his wife pulled him into the room to talk.

Deng Yuntai asked with a smile: "Pingmei, what are you talking about so mysteriously?"

After Zhang Xiuping closed the door, she said with a smile: "Brother Tai, I want to tell you a good news."

"What good news?"

"I'm pregnant!"

Deng Yuntai was so excited that he almost jumped up when he heard this. He asked with a look of surprise on his face: "Pingmei, is this true? Is the news accurate?"

Zhang Xiuping stroked her belly and smiled, "The doctor told me that, and my period has been over a week late, so this is probably true."

Deng Yuntai immediately asked nervously, "Did you go to the doctor? What's wrong with you?"

Seeing her husband's nervous look, Zhang Xiuping couldn't help but chuckle and said, "Don't worry, I just felt a little nauseous before, so I went to see a doctor. After the doctor felt my pulse, he said I was pregnant."

Deng Yuntai was relieved, and then he told her: "Pingmei, you are pregnant now, so don't do the housework for now, just let Azhen do it!"

"Dad has already told you about this. He even asked you to go for a walk with me after dinner every day!"

"Yeah, then I'll go for a walk with you after dinner!"
