"It's very delicious." Wang Juan felt that if she continued to eat like this, she would gain at least 20 kilograms by the time she gave birth.
Granny Wang Juan turned away with satisfaction, muttering as she walked away: "Tomorrow I have to go to the countryside to see if there are any live fish, and the day after tomorrow I will go to the county town to buy some fruit."
Wang Juan heard it and said, "Mom, fruits are too expensive now. It won't be too late to buy them when the weather gets warmer."
"You can buy fruits according to the time, but you can't buy them according to the time when you are pregnant and giving birth. You have to eat now and replenish yourself now. Money should be spent wisely." Grandma Wang Juan said in a loud voice.
Wang Shuning said to Wang Juan, "If you need some live fish, I'll bring it to you in two days." There were so many fish in the space that he couldn't eat them all.
Before Wang Juan could speak, her mother-in-law rushed out of the kitchen after hearing the noise. "Really? How many? Are they big?"
Wang Juan gave Wang Shuning an apologetic look. Wang Shuning lowered his eyes and smiled, "How many do you want? We have big and small ones. We'll catch them from the river that day."
"That's great. I have to deliver food to my old man right away. You two can talk, and I'll let Jieyu ride his bike to the village to get it." Mother-in-law Wang Juan gave Wang Juan a look. It would be bad for her to say too much about her daughter-in-law's friend, so she should let her daughter-in-law go and talk to him. She could get a better deal because of their relationship.
After her mother-in-law left with the lunch box, Wang Juan said embarrassedly: "The doctor said that I was a little weak, and I was worried that the child would not get enough nutrition, so my family was a little anxious."
"Giving birth to a child is like walking through the gates of hell for us women. It's inevitable that we're worried, so we'd better take it seriously." Today's medical technology is far less advanced than it will be in a few decades, and the probability of death during childbirth is still not low.
Wang Juan: "Can you really get it? It's not too much trouble, right?"
Wang Shuning shook his head. "It's not a big deal. It's easier to get in the village than in town. I usually eat these. You don't need your partner to come to the village to pick them up. I'll deliver them to you directly after I get them."
Wang Juan thought of something and frowned, "Are you doing business on the black market?"
Wang Shuning was silent for a few seconds before answering, "It's a small business. I'm busy working in the village, so I only do it when I have time."
Wang Juan understood. It turned out that he was in this line of work. "The black market is quite risky. You have to be careful."
As soon as I got home, Zhang Meili ran towards me crying, her eyes were red and bleeding. I don’t know how long she cried, but she couldn’t stop sobbing.
He wiped the tears with a piece of paper until the crying subsided. Wang Shuning then asked, "What happened?"
Ever since Guo Jingyi and Lv Beichu got married, Zhang Meili seldom went to see Guo Jingyi. As newlyweds, they wanted to stick together all day long. The first few times Zhang Meili went to talk to Guo Jingyi, she always felt that Lv Beichu's eyes were on her from time to time, as if he disliked her as a light bulb.
Zhang Meili blew her nose and answered with sobs: "I went to see He Qianghai today, and I saw him and Zhao Leyi walking together. They looked very close."
Wang Shuning raised his eyes in confusion. He Qianghai, this name was unfamiliar, he seemed never to have heard of it.
Seeing that Wang Shuning had squinted his eyes for a long time and still couldn't remember, Zhang Meili reminded him, "It was the man who pushed the cart with us when we went to the town to pay the public grain."
Wang Shuning thought carefully but still couldn't remember what the man looked like.
Zhang Meili pursed her lips and said a little disappointedly, "He was there when the village chief led people to the fight in Guixi Village. He was the one who rushed to the front."
Wang Shuning shook his head, "I really have no impression."
Zhang Meili decisively dragged Wang Shuning out to see the man. When they passed He Qianghai's house, they pointed at the young man who was washing vegetables outside and said, "That's him."
Wang Shuning took a closer look and thought the face looked familiar. "You didn't fall in love with her when you were paying your taxes, did you?"
Zhang Meili shook her head. "I didn't mean that at the time. Didn't Wang the butcher bring people to pry open the door in the middle of the night to catch Jingyi? Later, the villagers caught her and she was the one He Qianghai kidnapped. I looked at her a few more times at the time. Later, when we met in the village, we just talked and got a little closer. We didn't even have a chance to date."
Wang Shuning was dragged back by Zhang Meili, as if she was afraid of being seen by He Qianghai.
"Since they haven't even started dating, it doesn't matter if he talks to Zhao Leyi. How intimate are you talking about?" Wang Shuning asked her tentatively.
Zhang Meili let go of Wang Shuning's arm, took a step to the right, and stretched out her arm to gesture, "They are so close."
Wang Shuning stood still, his expression frozen, "This distance is not considered intimate, it's almost one meter away."
Zhang Meili stamped her feet anxiously, "But Zhao Leyi's expression is very ambiguous, and He Qianghai is also smiling."
Ever since Zhao Leyi had her hair pulled out by He Weiyuan and had a bald spot on her head, she has been wearing a hat when going out. Her market in Dafeng Village is not good and even the local girls can't compare to her. Unless he is blind, he will definitely choose Zhang Meili.
"I think it's your jealousy that's causing you so much trouble. You should find a time to ask him. If he doesn't like you, hurry up and find someone else. Otherwise, you're just wasting your time."
Zhang Meili lowered her head slightly. "There are too few people in the village that I like. I have met all the male educated youth living in the educated youth camp, and I feel that none of them are suitable."
Wang Shuning didn't know what to say. Only he knew what kind of partner he wanted to find. If he gave random suggestions and his life ended up not going well, he would only get himself into trouble.
When Zhang Meili returned, she looked lost.
After returning home, Wang Shuning cooked a pot of grilled fish, added various vegetables and potato flour, and since there was no TV series to watch, he could only listen to the radio.
At four o'clock in the morning, He Zhuzhu stood outside the room, knocking on the door anxiously, "Shuning, Shuning."
Wang Shuning was woken up, put on his clothes and opened the door, only to see He Zhuzhu wearing a thin autumn coat inside and her coat outside was not even buttoned.
"Aunt Zhu, what's wrong?"
He Zhuzhu was a little confused at the moment. "Goudan has a fever, and his forehead is very hot. I applied a wet towel to it for several hours but the fever didn't go down. Can you lend me your bicycle? I want to take him to the health center."
Wang Shuning buttoned up his coat. "Several hours? When did the fever start?"
He Zhuzhu said: "About eight or nine o'clock last night."
"Then why are you telling me now? Send me to the hospital immediately!"
It was around eight or nine o'clock last night, and seven or eight hours have passed.
Wang Shuning followed He Zhuzhu to their room. He Guochai was sweating and his face was red.
Wang Shuning reached out and touched it, and was shocked. It was so hot, it couldn't be 40 degrees Celsius.
He Guoyue sat at the head of the bed, looking bewildered and as if he had not slept all night.
He Zhuzhu tied Goudan to her back with a quilt, "Shuning, it's obviously..."
"You clearly told me to leave it to you, so take the child away quickly." Wang Shuning took the clothes and put them on He Guoyue. The child's arms were cold. He Zhuzhu was too worried about Goudan and didn't pay attention to other people.
