After confessing some things to Jiang Yunchen, Qiao Xiazhi suddenly felt a lot more relaxed.
From now on, she won't need to hide anything in front of him anymore.
Just like he said, some unspoken secrets, she didn't tell them, he didn't ask, but actually he knew them all.
As for the fact that they were pregnant with four children, Qiao Xiazhi and Jiang Yunchen chose not to tell their grandmother for the time being, so as to avoid making her worry all day long.
Just know that she is pregnant.
Regarding her pregnancy, Qiao Xiazhi also wrote a letter back to the Hongqi Brigade to tell her family the good news.
My family was also very happy when they found out.
"Xia Zhi said in the letter that she was pregnant for two months. It should be more than two months now."
After reading the letter, Qiao Daguo told his grandparents, parents and the news.
The whole family was very happy when they heard this.
But at the same time I was happy, I started to worry.
Sister-in-law Chen Li: "Xia Zhi is pregnant, and she still has to go to school. Can her body handle it?"
My sister-in-law has been ill for more than four months now. Now that she has stabilized, she has no problem getting out of bed and walking around.
However, for the safety of her and her children, her family never let her work.
Although Chen Li suffered a lot in her original family, fortunately, her in-laws treated her very well after she got married.
This can be considered as a happy ending after all the hardship.
Fang Mei: "It's so cold in the north. I heard it snowed heavily. I don't know if she is eating well or wearing warm clothes during her pregnancy."
Qiao Qiping: "Daguo, take two packs of cigarettes to the brigade and ask if you can ask the brigade leader to make some concessions and exchange them for 200 kilograms of food for us."
"Go to the commune and buy some cotton and cotton yarn, and ask your grandmother and mother to make a few more sets of clothes for them."
"Dongzhi, go around the brigade and see if you can trade some eggs with them. If anyone is willing to trade chickens, you can also do so."
"good."
"Okay, let's go now." After Qiao Daguo and Qiao Dongzhi agreed, they put on thick clothes and went out.
It’s just that the weather is cold, and the hens raised at home don’t lay many eggs. Occasionally, they want to keep the one or two that lay for themselves as a winter supplement.
After working all afternoon, it was already dark, and I had only exchanged less than thirty eggs by the winter solstice.
The old hen was exchanged for three.
There was no other choice, so they had to turn to the next brigade the next day.
Qiao Daguo and Qiao Erguo went to the neighboring brigade and gathered more than fifty people.
I also exchanged for three old hens.
The news of the Qiao family exchanging eggs soon reached the ears of Aunt Qiao and Aunt Qiao.
Originally, when they heard that Chen Li was pregnant, they started saving eggs at home.
When he heard that Qiao Daguo and Qiao Erguo were exchanging eggs, he quickly brought over the dozen or so eggs he had saved at home.
By the way, I also helped to exchange some with the team, and we each collected thirty.
After they brought the eggs, they found out that Xia Zhi was pregnant.
Both Aunt Qiao and Aunt Qiao were very happy for the Summer Solstice.
"It turns out that Xia Zhi is also pregnant. Wouldn't it be a pity if you collected so many eggs and sent them over and some of them went bad?" said Aunt Qiao.
Fang Mei: "There is not much work to do at home right now. We are going to ask Daguo and Erguo to go over there. We can feel more at ease if we deliver the things ourselves."
Hearing this, Aunt Qiao nodded and said, "Yes, it's safer to send it yourself. When we came here, we didn't know that Xia Zhi was pregnant. We didn't prepare anything except some eggs."
As she said that, Aunt Qiao took out five dollars from her pocket and handed it to Qiao Daguo.
"Luckily I still have five dollars on me, Daguo, take this money and when you go to Haishi, give it to Xiazhi on behalf of my aunt and say hello to Xiazhi."
Aunt Qiao said, "I'll ask Da Hu to send some money over later. Xia Zhi has to go to school now, and she's pregnant. It's different outside than at home. She needs tickets and money to exchange for everything, so she can't be without money."
Thinking about how difficult it was for Xia Zhi herself, and how she should have asked Daguo to give her fifty yuan the last time she came back, her aunt's voice was choked with sobs.
Qiao Daguo quickly pushed his aunt's money back, "Aunt, aunt, Xia Zhi will definitely not ask you for money. You don't have to worry about her. She will definitely ask us if she needs it."
Aunt Qiao: "Whether Xia Zhi wants to celebrate is her business. As aunts, our intentions are our intentions."
"Well, it's getting late and we have to go back quickly."
Zhu Shizhen: "Why are you in such a hurry? There is nothing to do at home now. I will have lunch at home before going back. What's the matter? Now that I am married, do I have to take care of my meals at my parents' house?"
Aunt Qiao said, "Mom, we're afraid that if we stay too long, they'll come and make trouble."
Zhu Shizhen: "What are you afraid of? If they dare to make trouble again, we will beat them out."
As soon as these words fell, Jiang Dawang's voice was heard outside the house.
"Mom, are you in this room?"
Hearing Jiang Dawang's voice, Qiao Xiaogu quickly got up and walked out of the house.
"Why are you here?" asked Aunt Qiao.
Jiang Dawang: "Grandma said you took a basket of eggs out, I thought you took them to the brigade commune to exchange for money."
"I ended up not seeing you when I went to the commune, and then I thought about Daguo exchanging eggs at the brigade yesterday, so I came to see you."
"Grandma asked me to ask you how much you got for that basket of eggs. When you go back later, go to the commune and buy half a pound of meat. Grandma is craving for meat."
When other people give birth to a son, it means they will protect their mother, but when Aunt Qiao gave birth to a son, she gave birth to a son who would come to collect debts.
It may be that in order to earn more work points and food for the family, Aunt Qiao had always taken care of the child by his grandmother, so the child is close to his grandmother.
In addition, his grandmother talked about all kinds of things to him every day, making him feel that his grandparents were a bunch of jellyfish and that his mother was too concerned about her parents' family and would always send a portion of everything to them. This made him dislike his grandparents' family and his mother even more.
