Chapter 515: Sister-in-law's situation is not good
The Gu family was extremely anxious, and the onlookers dispersed upon seeing what was happening, but they all craned their necks to look inside.
"Qingxuan, how is the third sister-in-law?"
"Sixth sister-in-law, why did Third Sister-in-law suddenly faint?"
Qu Feng signaled to everyone to be quiet for a while, and the more they should not panic, the more so.
Ran Qingxuan initially thought that it was because his third sister-in-law went to the county government office and became nervous and then relaxed.
But just after she reached out and took her sister-in-law's pulse, her eyes widened.
Gu Yanjing was the first to notice that her expression was wrong, and he almost couldn't stand.
"Sixth sister-in-law, your third sister-in-law is..."
Chen Chengping and his wife were extremely worried, and Old Master Chen and Old Madam Chen were also extremely anxious.
Just when Mrs. Gu was about to cry in anxiety, Ran Qingxuan stood up and covered her third sister-in-law with a blanket.
"Sixth daughter-in-law, what happened to your third sister-in-law? Why did she suddenly faint?"
Ran Qingxuan turned around and looked at everyone, his expressionless face made people sweat.
"Third sister-in-law's condition is not very good..."
"ah?"
"Okay, how could this happen..."
As everyone was grieving, Ran Qingxuan suddenly changed the subject...
"Well, my third sister-in-law is pregnant. I'm afraid she will have to work harder in the future..."
"Um???"
The sobbing sounds stopped abruptly, and the three families looked at Ran Qingxuan in disbelief.
"Sixth brother's wife, what did you say?"
Gu Yanjing thought he had heard it wrong and asked again in a daze.
Ran Qingxuan smiled and repeated, "Third sister-in-law is pregnant, but it's still early. I guess it's because of her emotional fluctuations just now, plus she didn't get enough rest in the past two days."
Madam Gu looked at her third daughter-in-law distressedly: "As a mother-in-law, I am so careless. She tossed and turned at night and couldn't sleep, but I didn't even think of asking her."
"Mom, it's not your fault. I, as her husband, stayed with her day and night, but I didn't notice it."
Gu Yanjing squatted beside the bed, holding Chen Wan'er's hand, and looked at his wife with eyes full of heartache.
The other women in the Gu family were also sincerely happy for Chen Wan'er. Their husbands had returned, and they would surely have their own children soon.
Ran Qingxuan smiled and said to everyone: "Let's let Third Sister-in-law have a good rest first. She will probably wake up by dinner time."
"Then I'll go ask around and see if the villagers can sell us a chicken. I'll make chicken soup for my third brother and his wife to nourish them."
"I'll go get a pot of fire and put it under the bed so that your sister-in-law won't get cold."
The second and fifth sisters-in-law did what they said, but they didn't expect that someone among the onlookers immediately said, "Wait a moment..."
Several families looked outside and saw the heads of the Guo and Lin families being carried in.
"The two clan leaders have injured their legs, why haven't you gone back to rest yet?"
Lin Sui endured the pain and said to Ran Qingxuan after being helped up by his family: "I think the appearance of Zhenbei Hou is not a coincidence. If it weren't for your relationship, the evidence of Qian Ming and his family's crimes would not have been revealed so quickly."
At this time, Guo Baoquan also said: "I believe that after today, we will no longer be oppressed like before."
"You don't have to buy these chickens from us. I'll have someone go back and catch a few and send them over..."
"I still have some eggs at home. I'll ask my children to bring them to me."
"My family doesn't have anything to show off. Starting tomorrow, I'll have my child's father bring you some firewood to burn..."
The villagers were talking at once, and since none of them were very wealthy, each family brought out what they thought was the best gift.
We caught more than twenty chickens, and there were too many eggs to count.
Not only that, there were also a few ducks and rabbits, and some people even carried a load of cornmeal and millet grown by themselves.
"The conditions in Yongfeng Village are limited in the winter. I hope you won't be disgusted and must accept these things."
The things sent by the two ethnic groups accumulated over time and were enough to feed them for a long time.
In fact, there are as many things as you want in Ran Qingxuan's space, and you can buy them whenever you need them.
But this kindness cannot be wasted. Ran Qingxuan looked at Old Madam Gu, who took a few steps forward and bowed to everyone.
"I am here on behalf of my daughter-in-law to thank you all for your kindness. It is hard to refuse such a generous gesture, so we will accept this gift."
"But from now on we are from the same village, and we can visit each other. I hope you won't refuse."
Ran Qingxuan's idea coincided with that of Old Madam Gu. After all, the New Year was approaching, and each family took out these things to save for the New Year.
She had previously looted a lot of food and property from the imperial palace and the Duan family in Shuangling City. Even if she distributed some of the tons of food, it would be no different from a drizzle.
Tomorrow she would find a way to bring some back and give some to each household, as a way of repaying the kindness of the villagers.
The clan leaders on both sides understood what Old Madam Gu meant and wanted to refuse, but they also felt that what she said was not wrong.
Anyway, we will all live in the same village in the future, so there is no need to be too cautious when interacting with each other.
Lin Sui thought of what the family had said in the morning, and said bluntly: "I heard this morning that your family wanted to rent a house, right?"
Ran Qingxuan's eyes lit up. Previously, because both families were afraid of the Qian family, the matter of renting a house had been put on hold.
Now that the Qian family members are all in jail and the obstructors are not around, they don’t have to worry about being retaliated against even if they rent a house.
"The carpenters in Luocheng and Zixi County should have been warned, so they didn't dare to come when we went there."
"After I came back, I had the idea of renting a house, but I didn't expect Qian Lizheng to harm you the night before."
As he said this, Ran Qingxuan let out a long sigh with lingering fear.
"What a coincidence! If Queen Zhengbei hadn't come to visit us, we would have had to spend the New Year here."
"Are you still renting a house?" Guo Baoquan asked anxiously.
"Rent. We should be able to find carpenters and craftsmen after today, but the weather gets colder as we get closer to the New Year. We still have to rent a house for a while."
“We have a room there…”
“I have a vacant room in my house…”
The two clan leaders said in unison, looked at each other and started competing.
"I said it first, come live with us."
"Who said I have to go to your place now that I open my mouth? There are still vacancies in our tribe."
Before Qian's family bought a house, they did have a vacant room, but they did not dare to rent it to them due to the power of the Qian family.
Nowadays, people are scrambling to rent houses to them.
Gu Yanchen gave Ran Qingxuan a helpless smile and motioned for them to stop for a moment.
"Why don't the two clan leaders go back and rest first? We have more people anyway, so we will definitely have to rent from both sides when the time comes."
After hearing this, the two stopped, forgot the pain in their bodies, and happily asked their family members to take them to see the house.
The Guo clan has three rooms. Although they are empty after others moved out, they can still be lived in if they are cleaned up a bit.
The families of Shan Qi and others were arranged to live in the Guo clan, and living like this made them popular.
The Lin clan has many houses, and the Gu family, the Chen family, and the Xiao family all live here.
Moreover, the three houses are adjacent to each other, so there is no problem in visiting each other.
The tribesmen on both sides were grateful. They had no chance to get involved in the work of cleaning the house. After all, if each family sent out one person, it would form a huge team.
