Chapter 291 292: Got it?
Yang Chunyan looked at Li Qiuyue and the others whose skin had darkened several degrees in just a few days, and thought of the mountains of sand and gravel in front of the construction site. She felt that women these days really hold up half the sky.
When they got home, Zhou's mother and Aunt Zhou had already prepared dinner. After dinner, when everyone sat down and chatted, Zhou Huaian talked about the village election next year.
When Zhou's father and his friends heard that Xiong Laoyao was going to run for secretary, they said, "I don't believe that Xiong Laoyao's grandson can get more votes than Zhou Datian."
Zhou Huaian repeated Yang Chunyan's words, "Chunyan said that if his family told others when canvassing for votes that they could help everyone get a higher grade of public grain and pay less taxes, the villagers would definitely vote for him instead."
After hearing this, Father Zhou nodded and said, "This method is indeed attractive. If anyone says this to me, I will choose him too."
Zhou San's father curled his lips and said, "Brother, you too, do you believe what the Xiong family said?"
"Can't I ask him to write me a note?" Father Zhou looked at the others, "Tell me, if the Second Brother's family and the Old Xiong's family hadn't fought, and he really dared to write us a note, wouldn't you want to choose him?"
Dad Wednesday said honestly: "It's possible. After all, you can get more money if you are one level higher."
Father Zhou frowned and said, "Youngest, who told you that Youngest Xiong wanted to be elected as the secretary?"
Zhou Huaian subconsciously didn't want others to know about Yang Chunyan's dream, so he made up an excuse, "I heard them talking about it when I went to the agency store to buy matches this afternoon."
Father Zhou glanced at Li Yinfu and said, "He is now a militia company commander, so he is qualified to be elected as the brigade secretary. Besides, we can't do anything if the villagers want to elect him."
"Yes! None of our three families are capable, not to mention Huaixing." Father Zhou stood up and said, "Old man, Dasong, let's go back."
Zhou Sanba's family also stood up and said, "We are going back too. Let Huaizhong and his brother come to help you for another day tomorrow."
"Yes, take care!" Father Zhou and Zhou got up and saw them off.
Zhou Huaishan said with a smile: "Youngest, if you can become a talent sooner, I will choose you as the team leader in this election."
The old man also laughed after hearing this, "Yes, if the youngest one becomes successful sooner, maybe he can be elected as a team leader."
"I won't go even if you invite me!" Zhou Huaian thought for a moment and looked at Zhou Huairong, "Actually, I think big brother can definitely give it a try."
"I'm going to go?" Zhou Huairong pointed at himself and shook his head like a rattle. "Don't make fun of me. I'm not cut out to be an official."
The old man smiled and said, "You are just a small captain. You don't even have a rank. What are you afraid of? Grandpa is optimistic about you. I'll give you my ticket."
"Old man, (Dad) I'll give you my ticket too." Several kids who were listening to the radio nearby also said.
Everyone laughed after hearing this, "Yes, our family has sixteen votes."
At this time, Zhou's father and his wife came back and said to Zhou Huaian, "Youngest, let's go to Datian's house together."
After Zhou Huaian and his son left, Zhou Huairong and his brother took Lai Fu and Wangcai to the construction site to exchange for Zhou Huaijun and his wife to go home.
Yang Chunyan and her two sisters-in-law packed the herbs into bamboo baskets and a backpack. The next morning, when Zhou Huaian helps Fangtian Brigade to pull cement from the cement factory, he will take her to the bridgehead and let her deliver the vegetables and herbs.
Li Qiuyue looked at the goods this time and smiled, "You guys are lucky, you can at least get a few dozen this time!"
Yang Chunyan smiled and nodded, "Yes! As long as you work hard to find it, you will always get something."
After the sisters-in-law had packed up, they went to wash up and rest.
Yang Chunyan lay down and waited for Zhou Huaian for a while, and fell asleep unknowingly. She was awakened by the creaking of the door, and she opened her eyes to see him walk in.
"You're back, what did Uncle Datian say?"
"He had heard that the youngest Xiong wanted to run for election, but he didn't expect that he would resort to trickery."
"After hearing about it, did he think of how to deal with it?"
"Uncle Datian said that he will go to discuss it with Secretary Xu tomorrow morning. From his tone, he has a good relationship with Secretary Xu's family."
"You said in the yard that you wanted my brother to run for team leader. Do you really have this idea?"
"Uncle Datian also said that the Xiong family has a good relationship with the accountant Ye family. I think if he is not elected as the brigade secretary next year, even if my brother is elected as the team leader, he will not have a say in the village because of his temper."
"That's true. It's better for you to be so thick-skinned."
"What are you saying? I was only thick-skinned when I asked a matchmaker to go to your house to propose marriage. How could I be thick-skinned at other times?"
"You're still not good enough, you keep praising yourself!" Yang Chunyan said and yawned, "I'm so sleepy, go take a shower and go to bed."
"You can't sleep without me at home, right?" Zhou Huaian picked up the vest and shorts on the cabinet and quickly put them on her face. "You take a nap first, I'll take a shower and come back."
"Bullshit! I always sleep alone in the mountains!" Yang Chunyan glared at him.
But he didn't know that her sleepy eyes staring at him not only had no deterrent effect, but the charm revealed between her eyebrows was even more alluring, making him want to pounce on her and do whatever he wanted.
Zhou Huaian grinned, walked forward, hugged her and kissed her.
"Smelly sweat... oooo..." Yang Chunyan couldn't break free, so she pinched the soft flesh on his waist fiercely, and then turned it 90 degrees...
"Hiss...hiss...wife, stop being awkward. I'm going to take a shower now." Zhou Huaian let go of her with a grin, and ran out quickly with his clothes.
Yang Chunyan watched him run away, and suddenly remembered that her relative had not come this month. She thought back to the child she had lost in her previous life, and it seemed that she was also conceived this month.
Because she didn't have any reaction to her pregnancy, she didn't know until two months into the pregnancy... I'll go to Ning'an for a check-up tomorrow...
Zhou Huaian went to the well to fetch a bucket of water, forgetting even his fear, and quickly went to the outhouse in the backyard.
He picked up the bucket and poured water over the affected area from head to toe. He added some oil and rubbed it two or three times, then rinsed it twice with the remaining water.
He wiped his body with a towel, put on a vest and pants, threw the dirty clothes into the bucket, carried it to the front yard and put it next to the well, then hurried back to the room.
He closed the door and turned around to see Yang Chunyan, who was sitting by the bed and looking at him with a smile on her face. He was stunned for a moment, then walked forward excitedly, "Hehe..."
Yang Chunyan grabbed his restless hand and said in a low voice, "Don't move! I'm about ten days late, I might be pregnant."
"Really?" Zhou Huaian sat up straight and looked at her in surprise, "Let's go to Ning'an to see Doctor Wang to check my pulse tomorrow!"
"It's only been ten days late. Can you tell by feeling the pulse?"
"Don't worry, you can find it out. If you really can't find it out, go to the hospital across the street for a check-up." Zhou Huaian said as he hugged her, "Wife..."
Yang Chunyan looked at him and said, "No, we can't be together in the first three months after pregnancy..."
"Ah~" Zhou Huaian looked at her with a bitter face, "You mean, I have to hold it in for the next three months?"
