Chapter 322 Winter Idleness 2
In the entire Wanglou Brigade, apart from those who are lazy and like to eat, few people are idle.
Feng Qingxue and Wang Jiao were included in this group, because the two sisters were so pampered that they did not go to work with others. There were many people who envied them, quite a few who were jealous of them, and many who ridiculed them.
"They are not lucky enough to do this, so they just gossip!" Wang Jiao came to find Feng Qingxue and said while eating melon seeds.
Those who gossip about them behind their backs are all women, and they are women with unfortunate luck.
Feng Qingxue smiled and said, "We really didn't go out to work!"
In everyone's eyes, not working is a sign of laziness.
Wang Jiao said as a matter of course: "I have Yuejin to support me, I have reasons not to work, why are they so complaining? It's not like I didn't work during the busy farming season. Besides, you are pregnant now, it's normal for you not to work!"
She touched Feng Qingxue's belly and said in amazement: "The belly is so big, is it a boy or a girl?"
"I don't know either." Feng Qingxue's medical skills were not good enough to identify the gender of a baby by taking its pulse, and the current hospital did not have advanced B-ultrasound technology to identify the gender. However, she did not care at all. She put down the swaddling clothes she was making, her face full of maternal tenderness, and said with a smile: "Whether it is a boy or a girl, they are both mine and Lu Jiang's babies, there is no difference."
Wang Jiao said, "How can there be no difference? A boy is a boy, a girl is a girl. If they were the same, there would be no difference between the two. Otherwise, how could there be so many abnormal deaths of baby girls? I don't like it either, but many people do it. How long have I been married? Yuejin's mother stares at my belly every day, thinking that I don't know what she's thinking."
Feng Qingxue shook her head. There was nothing she could do about this situation.
Therefore, the imbalance in the gender ratio in the 21st century and the inability of many parents to find wives for their sons are purely their own fault.
There are many bachelors nowadays. No matter natural disasters or man-made calamities, girls are always the first to be abandoned. However, there are more and more men who survive, and without corresponding girls to marry them, they naturally become bachelors.
Caohu Brigade was poor and had a lot of bachelors, while Wanglou Brigade was wealthy and had more than half the number of bachelors. Now, bachelors have become popular in the Brigade.
"I heard that many girls from other production brigades want to marry into our Wanglou." Wang Jiao said excitedly, "I know of several families. Yuejin's mother is looking for a partner for her niece!"
Feng Qingxue was not interested in these. "Cousin, the New Year is coming soon. Has the supply of supplementary food for my cousin's husband increased?"
When Wang Jiao mentioned this, she immediately smiled. "Of course, we increase the supply of non-staple food during the Mid-Autumn Festival and Spring Festival every year. Chickens, ducks and geese only appear in these two seasons. They are not available at other times. Do you want to buy anything? I'll tell Yue Jin and ask him to reserve it in advance."
Feng Qingxue was about to say that she didn't have the corresponding ticket when she heard the postman's voice outside.
"Did Lu Jiang send you something?" Wang Jiao jumped up, even more excited than her.
Compared to Wang Jiao who ran out in two steps at a time, Feng Qingxue walked at a steady pace and took the two large packages and several letters from the postman. "Comrade Feng Qingxue, your letters and things are all here."
"Thank you, Comrade He Hai."
Because the postman often comes to deliver letters and parcels, everyone is familiar with him.
He Hai said with a smile: "This is what we should do, you're welcome. Okay, I'm leaving now, I still have a letter to deliver!"
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
