Chapter 188, Arrival at the Hospital (Updated)
"Don't worry, Dad. I will definitely stay at home to help my mom raise chickens and won't go anywhere." An Liang responded obediently.
"It's good that you're sensible. Okay, it's settled. We'll go buy chicks at the market."
An Chengjia also made the decision soon after. They would raise some ducks. Just like Xiaoxue said, ducks live by water. Their home was next to a stream, and they would be doing a disservice to such a nice place if they didn't raise some ducks.
There are some problems with Anwen, mainly because the capital investment is too large.
"Dad, Mom, what do you think?" An Wen was very excited. Eating meat is what every household wants most, and raising pigs will definitely not be a problem if they sell them.
Li Shuangshuang had no objection. She listened to Brother Anwen and Sister-in-law and decided to raise the child.
She can help raise the baby at home every day.
Aunt Xilian was a little hesitant. If all the family money was used to raise pigs, what would happen to the money for Zhengxi's medicine?
Medicines are so good now, but they cost at least thirty yuan a month. If the family runs out of money, what should he do when he gets pain?
He Zhengxi was so happy that he didn't think too much about it. "Anwen, if you want to give it a try, Dad has no objection. However, Shuangshuang is pregnant now. Although it's still a long way to go before giving birth, the time is not far away."
"You have to think about saving this money, as it will also be used to provide for your children's food, clothing and shelter in the future." The family's financial situation has improved, and he doesn't want to let his grandson down.
Li Shuangshuang was touched to see her father-in-law caring so much about her, "Dad, it's okay. We will keep the money for the child and won't let him lose money."
After hearing this, He Zhengxi smiled and said, "Okay, let's not raise too many at once. Let's have ten, from small to large."
One sentence revealed Aunt Xilian's worries, "Yes, let's raise fewer pigs first. If they are good, we will build a pig pen next year and raise more."
After thinking it through, Aunt Xilian nodded in agreement.
Anwen smiled.
"Well, for ten pigs, we can add two more rooms at the back of the house. It's hot, so there's no need to repair it. We can move the toilet to the back and add two more rooms next to the pig pen."
···
Mei Xue didn't know about these things, nor did she want to know. She was only thinking about the vegetables in her garden.
"Grandma, are there a lot of watermelons this year?" That's right, after Mei Xue tasted the watermelon, she became particularly fond of this fruit.
"A lot. The planting season is just right this year, and they are all bearing fruit now. I'll pick a small one for you one day." After Mei Xue changed the subject, Grandma He also smiled happily.
"That's good. Don't let it be like last year when we planted so much but couldn't even eat a few." Mei Xue said regretfully.
She really didn't know that watermelons need pollination. The weather is cold, where would the butterflies and bees come from? The fact that some watermelons can be produced is a gift from God.
"Okay, kid, I know you like to eat it, so grandma will definitely take good care of you."
In June, as time passed, all three families bought the poultry they wanted to raise at the town and the big market.
Even Grandma He bought thirty chicks. These chickens were not for sale, but for Xiaoxue to eat during her confinement.
Thirty is not a lot, but not a small number either. Mei Xue didn't want her grandma to be so tired every day, so she asked Aunt Yan Zi from Grandma Meng's family to come and help keep an eye on the vegetables in the mountain.
I go there every day to check on them, water them, pull out weeds, etc., and then sell them when the time comes.
I gave Aunt Yan two dollars a day, and she was very happy and agreed.
Now, June has arrived, and many vegetables have grown and are ready to be picked and sold. "Xiaoxue, when will Boss Qian come over to pick up the vegetables? Many of the vegetables in this field will get old if we don't pick them now."
What a waste it would be if I lost this when I get old, right?
Mei Xue's belly has been pregnant for more than five months and is becoming more and more obvious. Plus, she is pregnant with two babies, so she can't sleep well every night.
When she woke up hungry in the morning, she would get up to eat something and then go back to sleep. Her strength returned, but her appetite also returned.
"It's okay, it should be here in a few days, don't worry, Aunt Yan." Mei Xue was eating the wine chicken fried by her grandmother. It was so delicious.
After seeing that she was able to eat and sleep, both her grandmother and everyone else felt relieved.
"That's good. You haven't seen it. The vegetables are growing so well. They haven't been harmed by the animals in the mountains." Aunt Yan Zi couldn't stop smiling when talking about this.
She gets two dollars a day, which is a lot of money in a month. No other woman in the village can earn more than her.
"That's Xiaobai's credit." Grandma He came out of the kitchen, holding two bowls filled with mung bean water.
"Here, drink some. The sun is very hot." He handed the bowl in his hand to Aunt Yan Zi.
"Thank you, Auntie San."
Aunt Yan Zi was not polite. She might have been polite at the beginning, but after a while, she couldn't be polite anymore.
I give it to you every day, you can't be polite every day.
As time went on, she herself didn't even know what politeness was.
"After you drink, go back and have a rest. You can go upstairs and take a look around in the afternoon." Grandma He said with a smile.
"Yeah, I know, it's just that those vegetables are growing too well, which makes me a little worried."
"Don't worry, this will only happen in the next two days. I've already told Boss Qian that the next batch of vegetables will be ready soon, so I think he should be here by now."
Grandma He also changed from being worried at the beginning to being indifferent now. At first, she thought that people must have some ulterior motives when they paid a high price to sell vegetables from her home.
And now, she believes that her dishes are worth the price.
Like Xilian and Meilian, they would send some vegetables grown at home from time to time. She had eaten them all and thought they must taste the same at first, but after cooking them, she found that her own vegetables were really delicious.
She felt she was losing money at this price.
Fortunately, they would bring some things to their home every time they came, otherwise she would have mentioned the price increase long ago.
Mei Xue didn’t know what her grandmother was thinking, otherwise she would definitely agree.
Is the water in her space so good?
"That's good." Aunt Yanzi smiled. After drinking the last sip of mung bean soup, she got up and left.
As the people walked away, Grandma He said to Mei Xue, "How come your Grandma Meng is so lucky to have such a good daughter-in-law?"
Mei Xue was confused and looked up from the bowl at her grandmother.
Grandma He smiled and said nothing more. "Eat quickly, then walk around and take a nap. I'll call you to eat at noon."
"Oh well."
Mei Xue really wanted to sleep.
He Anze also returned to Mingcheng and sent the child to the hospital immediately. When the hospital saw the child, they thought that they had beaten the child and immediately detained the person.
I have to say, the doctor at this time was really brave and courageous.
"We rescued him on the road. We didn't beat the kid." No matter how good-tempered Xiangyang was, he couldn't help but jump up.
He Anze was not happy either, but he didn't waste any words and just waited for the police to come. "Okay, the child's life is the most important."
Tickets move...
