The roads in the countryside are all dirt roads. When the snow melts, it freezes. In addition, the temperature has been very low, so the roads are full of mud and no car can move.
It was half a month later that Su Wan returned to Shiqiao Village again.
Xu Guixiang has been very worried for the past half month, and Li Dani is not much better than her. She goes to their house again and again to ask if there is any news about Su Wan recently.
It was already the last month of pregnancy, and Su Wan was alone in the city with a big belly and no relatives around her, which was really worrying.
Xu Guixiang tried to walk to the city to look for Su Wan several times, but was finally persuaded by her family to stop.
The city is so big, and it's covered in ice and snow. If Su Wan doesn't come, it will be as difficult as finding a needle in a haystack.
Xu Guixiang finally had to give up.
Today, after the family had breakfast, Su Weiguo and his two sons pulled a flatbed cart to the mountain to cut wood.
I want to buy furniture for my two sons this winter.
Xu Guixiang and Liu Ye went to the supply and marketing cooperative in the town. When Su Haibin got married, she had nothing except a quilt for them.
I always feel bad about it, so I'm going to take advantage of the time now to make two more quilts and sheets as wedding supplies for Mr. and Mrs. 께.
And Su Wan was about to give birth. Although her mother-in-law had already prepared clothes for the child, as a grandmother, she couldn't just do nothing for the child.
She wanted to make two sets of larger padded jackets and trousers for her children. Newborns grow fast, and the weather will get warmer soon after the Chinese New Year. She would add a thin layer of cotton inside, which would be just right for spring wear.
As for holding a wedding banquet for Su Haibin and Zhang Ting, she also planned to wait until after the Chinese New Year, when the spring comes and the flowers bloom.
We have no money now, but when the team distributes food during the New Year, we will get some money, and we won’t have to worry about it then.
After the two of them pulled the cloth, they followed Su Haibin's instructions and went to Zhang Ting's house again, where they sat for a while.
Zhang Ting wanted to invite the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law to have dinner together, but Xu Guixiang refused because she was always worried about Su Wan.
The weather is good today and there are people riding bicycles on the road. Maybe Su Wan will come back today.
So she and Liu Ye hurried back, and when they got home they saw that the lock on the front door was missing. Xu Guixiang was so excited that she started shouting before she even opened the door.
"Wanwan, Wanwan, are you back, Wanwan?"
Su Wan was taking something out of the space. When she came back, she went to take a look in the kitchen first.
I found that the steamed buns in the cupboard were replaced with corn cakes.
I opened the noodle jar and found that there were still half a bag of rice and flour.
With such a large family, the two bags of rice and flour should have been eaten up long ago, but they just couldn't bear to eat them.
She quickly got another bag of rice and noodles from the space, added a few dozen eggs, and various seasonal vegetables.
When Xu Guixiang called her, she was holding a piece of meat and preparing to put it into the basin.
Hearing Xu Guixiang's shout, she quickly put the meat down and came over.
"Mom, sister-in-law, where have you been?"
"Oh, it's really Wanwan."
Xu Guixiang stuffed the things in her hand into her willow-leaf lap, walked forward, took Su Wan's hand and looked her up and down.
Su Wan was already eight months pregnant, and Xu Guixiang couldn't help but feel worried when she saw her bulging belly.
"Wanwan, you're getting heavier and heavier. You'll be giving birth in a month or so. Should we stay at home and take good care of ourselves?"
Su Wan knew that Xu Guixiang would definitely not let her go easily this time when she came back, but she had already thought of a countermeasure.
"Mom, the Chinese New Year is just a month away, and business will get better and better. Our boss has told me to work hard and she will give me a raise, so I can't bear to throw this away. I will work until I die."
Xu Guixiang immediately became anxious when she heard this, "How can that be possible? This is too hard. Even if you can hold on, you still have to..."
"Mom, I've thought it through. I came back this time just to solve this problem."
Before Xu Guixiang could finish her words, Su Wan interrupted her with a smile.
"Mom, do you guys no longer need to go to school now?"
Xu Guixiang nodded.
"That's perfect. I came back this time just to take you to live in the city for a while. Otherwise, you'd always be worried about me being alone in the city."
"What? Didn't you say that the landlord of the house you rented doesn't allow you to bring anyone back?"
"Mom, I moved to a new house and I live on my own now."
Su Wan didn't want to talk about buying a house for the time being.
The main reason was that the 3,000 yuan for buying the house was a little hard to explain, so she wanted to wait a few more months until she could start her own business before announcing the purchase of the house.
But looking at the situation, it seems that I can't hide it any longer.
Because Wang Xiao'e and Wu Gang were married, they would inevitably talk about her, the matchmaker, whenever they were together.
She and Grandma Wang have been neighbors for such a long time, so the matter of the house must be hidden.
But now she still holds the mentality of keeping it a secret for the rest of the day.
"That house must be very expensive. Do you have enough money?" Xu Guixiang asked worriedly.
"Don't worry, since I can afford to rent a house, I have enough money. You don't have to worry about this."
As Su Wan spoke, she took Xu Guixiang to the kitchen. After entering, Xu Guixiang looked at the things all over the floor and she couldn't help but sigh.
"Wanwan, how can I say hello to you? You said you are about to give birth, and you will have many things to spend money on after you have a child. You should learn to save some money and stop buying things for the family..."
Xu Guixiang said these words countless times, but Su Wan never listened to them and continued to bring food and drinks home.
She didn't know how to stop Su Wan.
Su Wan was anxious to go to Wang Xiao'e to propose marriage. When she saw Xu Guixiang packing up, she said to her, "Mom, I'm going to go back to Lu's house to check on you. You haven't been back for such a long time. My mother-in-law must be worried."
"Why don't I go with you? Your sister-in-law will take care of these things later."
Xu Guixiang was a girl she was very worried about, always fearing something might happen to her, even though she didn't even leave the village.
"Mom, it's okay. I'm not going far. I'm just going back to Lu's house. I came back alone from such a long distance in the city. You can put your mind at ease."
Su Wan said this without waiting for Xu Guixiang to agree or not, she turned around and walked out quickly.
When he reached the front door, he turned around and shouted into the house, "Mom, I may not be back for dinner. You guys should eat now. You don't have to wait for me."
After hearing Xu Guixiang's response from inside the house, he quickly opened the door.
Although she is now more than 8 months pregnant, she has never felt unwell. Her sperm is no different from when she was not pregnant, and her movements are also very flexible.
She was not concerned about the baby in her belly and felt that running was fine.
This may also be related to the fact that she drinks spiritual spring water and eats space food every day.
Arriving at the gate of the Lu family's house, Su Wan looked around and saw that no one was around, so she quickly took out a piece of meat that had been prepared long ago, as well as snacks for the children.
Then he knocked on the Lu family's door.
It was Shitou who came over and opened the door. When he saw that it was Su Wan, he excitedly shouted into the room,
"Grandma, my aunt is back, my aunt is back."
