Chapter 178 Xiuman is pregnant
After Huang Dazhi left, Gao Mingcheng went to the old village. He planned to find Gao Zhuang and give him some advice.
Before reaching grandma's house, it started to drizzle. The rain was not heavy, so Gao Mingcheng didn't care and walked quickly into the courtyard of grandma's house.
My grandmother was tidying up the clothes that were drying in the yard. Now that it was raining, she naturally had to quickly take the clothes back home.
Seeing Gao Mingcheng coming, the grandmother smiled and said, "Mingcheng, are you here to see Zhuangzhuang? Xiuman has been feeling a little uncomfortable these days, and Zhuangzhuang is worried, so he took her to the health center to see a doctor today."
The health center is also in Junling, not far away if you ride a bicycle.
After putting the clothes away, Grandma Xi looked at the gloomy sky, and her face became even more smiling. She said, "Tomorrow is Xiaoman. It will definitely rain every day recently. Mingcheng, don't go into the mountains recently. It's inconvenient to go into the mountains when it rains. Don't get wet and get sick."
"Okay, okay." Gao Mingcheng responded and asked Gao Zhuang and the others when they went to the health center.
I learned that he went there at nine o'clock, so it is already ten fifty now, and he should be back soon.
Just as Gao Mingcheng thought, Gao Zhuang's voice soon came from outside the yard: "It was fine this morning, why is it raining all of a sudden?"
He Xiuman's voice also rang out. She seemed very happy, and her voice was filled with joy: "I told you not to look at the lunar calendar. Tomorrow is Xiaoman. They say that when Xiaoman comes, the rivers are full. It must rain a lot during this period!"
"It's best to catch fish on rainy days, but it's a pity that I can't go now."
When Gao Zhuang heard He Xiuman say that, he knew that she must want to eat fish, and quickly said, "No need for you to go, I'm here! I'll go catch fish later!"
While the two were talking, they had already rode their bicycles into the yard.
"Go back to the house quickly and don't get wet in the rain!" Gao Zhuang said hurriedly, and pushed the bicycle to the utility room to prevent it from getting wet.
After doing all this, he looked up and saw Gao Mingcheng standing under the eaves.
He immediately smiled widely and said loudly, "Brother Mingcheng! I was just about to find you!"
Gao Zhuang ran quickly to the eaves. He looked at Gao Mingcheng and his grandmother and announced loudly, "I'm going to be a father! Grandma, Xiuman is pregnant! The doctor said it's almost a month! Haha!"
After Gao Zhuang announced the good news, he couldn't control his laughter.
"What? Xiuman is pregnant? I told you that Xiuman's symptoms suggested that she was pregnant, but I didn't dare to tell you because I was afraid that Xiuman would misunderstand me and think I was trying to induce labor! When this child will come is all fate, and now that fate has come, he has come!"
"Xiuman, don't stand there. Sit down quickly. Are your hair and clothes wet? I'll get a dry towel to wipe them for you." Grandma's face was also full of joy. She hurriedly went to get a dry towel to wipe He Xiuman's hair.
He Xiuman said hurriedly, "Grandma, my hair and clothes are not wet, please stop worrying! I am in good health and I didn't feel uncomfortable at all. It was Gao Zhuang who was worried and insisted on seeing a doctor. Many people in our area only found out they were pregnant when their bellies got big! There was also one who only found out she was pregnant when she was about to give birth, and gave birth to a baby in the fields the next day."
"Oh, that was definitely the case in the past. Life is better now, but we can't do that anymore." The grandmother's face was full of disapproval.
Her son and daughter-in-law passed away early, leaving her with only one grandson, Gao Zhuang. Now that He Xiuman is pregnant, the grandmother immediately transferred some of her love to this unborn great-grandson.
She was afraid that He Xiuman was hungry, so she said, "I'm going to cook. What do you want to eat? In the future, just tell me what you want to eat. If there is something in the field, go pick it. If there is nothing in the field, you can either buy it or exchange it with others. It's all fine!"
He Xiuman smiled. She had been treated very well since she married into Gao Zhuang's family. Her grandmother was a tolerant and kind old lady, and Gao Zhuang was a gentle person. Their family was simple and they almost never quarreled.
"I'm not picky about food. I can eat anything." He Xiuman said this because she didn't want to trouble her grandmother.
She was indeed not picky about food. When she was at her mother's house, whenever there was a delicious dish, she would always give it to her younger brother first, then her father, her grandmother, and her grandfather. In short, it was difficult for her sisters to eat it.
But at her husband's side, everyone had a share of the delicious food, and Xi Nainai and Gao Zhuang would even go out of their way to give her some extra dishes, fearing that she would be too polite to take any.
He Xiuman was in a very good mood. She felt that her life now was very enjoyable. Her previous life was so frustrating!
"Great, Gao Zhuang, you're really quick!" Gao Mingcheng didn't expect He Xiuman to get pregnant so quickly, and he was happy for Gao Zhuang and Xi Nainai from the bottom of his heart.
At this moment, he truly felt that everything was different from his previous life!
"Hehe, Brother Mingcheng, you got married before me, so you have to work harder! From now on, your children will have to call us brother or sister!" Gao Zhuang straightened his back and spoke in a proud tone.
He is younger than Gao Mingcheng, but his children are older than Gao Mingcheng's children!
Gao Mingcheng was silent for a few seconds, glanced at He Xiuman out of the corner of his eye, and felt depressed.
This dog food is so choking!
Gao Mingcheng and Xuanyuemei did get married first, but the reason why they had no children was not because Gao Mingcheng's seeds were bad, but because he did not sow the seeds in the soil at all!
He Xiuman is a few years older than Gao Zhuang. As the saying goes, a woman three years older than a man is more likely to be a rich man. This is no joke. He Xiuman is at the best age for childbearing. It is easy for her to conceive and she is also suitable for pregnancy.
But many beauties are younger than Gao Mingcheng, and they are not even twenty years old yet!
Therefore, Gao Mingcheng was unwilling to let Xuanyuemei get pregnant too early. Besides, he had not had enough of their time together. Although after his rebirth, he wanted to make up for his debt to the child in his previous life.
But... who knows if the children in this life are the same two from the previous life? Even if they are... ahem, that won't stop him from giving them fatherly love in a few years!
At this time, the voice of the grandmother came from the kitchen: "Yes, Mingcheng, you should also try to have a child, so that the children will be of similar age in the future and have a companion!"
Well, the grandmother didn’t dare to induce He Xiuman to give birth, but she did induce him to give birth!
Gao Mingcheng responded vaguely. As for whether to work hard or not, it was up to him to find the right balance.
It would take a while for Grandma Xi to cook, but Gao Zhuang couldn't sit still. He looked at Gao Mingcheng and said, "Brother Mingcheng, do you want to go fishing together?"
Gao Mingcheng also heard what He Xiuman said before, and knew that Gao Zhuang was anxious for He Xiuman to eat the fish, so he nodded and said, "Go, take the fish basket!"
"Hey." Gao Zhuang happily went to get the fish basket, and the two of them walked towards the reservoir in the drizzle.
On the way, Gao Mingcheng said on the pretext of something: "Gao Zhuang, your wife is pregnant. You'd better stay by her side all the time in the first few months. Don't run around everywhere!"
Gao Zhuang grinned, not knowing why Gao Mingcheng said that, but he nodded and agreed: "Of course! I don't run around anyway. At most, I go to Junling to buy something for Xiuman on market days."
Speaking of this, Gao Zhuang frowned again and complained: "When I was setting traps before, some of them fell off. Then I found that other people in the village also started setting traps! Now it's not easy to catch wild rabbits with traps!"
If we can't get wild rabbits, our family will lose a source of meat.
"Brother Mingcheng, there is an open space in my backyard. I plan to buy some bricks and build a small house, and then use it to raise rabbits. What do you think?" Gao Zhuang looked at Gao Mingcheng, waiting for his opinion.
In the past, after he trapped a rabbit, he sometimes did not eat it immediately, but kept it for a few days, and then ate it anyway.
Now, he feels that it is becoming increasingly difficult to trap rabbits, so he wants to raise them himself. After the rabbits reproduce a few times, he will have endless rabbit meat!
Rabbits have strong reproductive abilities and can also reproduce through blood relations, so Gao Mingcheng said, "Okay, if you want to raise one, go ahead! How about this, if I catch a rabbit recently, I'll send it to you."
"Okay! I'll return it to you when I raise more and more rabbits!" Gao Zhuang said with a smile, and accepted Gao Mingcheng's help without hesitation.
The relationship between them is very close and they don't care about verbal rejections or thanks.
