After saying that, he smiled embarrassedly.
"This is normal. I was like this when I was pregnant. I wanted to make dozens of sets of clothes for my children. I was worried that they wouldn't have enough clothes to wear. I wanted to give them all the best things."
Su Qingxue felt that this was a mentality unique to new parents. When they became parents for the first time, they had no experience and just wanted to give all the good things to their children.
Just like when my twin sons were not born yet, I stockpiled so much milk powder, malted milk and other good things. Wasn’t it because I was afraid that the children would not have enough to eat and would become hungry and thin?
Perhaps because she heard that Su Qingxue’s thoughts were similar to hers, Bai Jie suddenly felt like her sister-in-law understood her.
The smile on her face became brighter and she seemed not so shy anymore.
"I thought I was the only one like this. I was relieved when I heard what my sister-in-law said. The clothes my sister-in-law gave me were enough. I didn't plan to make too many. I just wanted to make two sets of clothes and two pairs of shoes for the child. But my craftsmanship is just average, not great, so I work very slowly. It's great that I can finish the clothes and shoes before the child is born."
I feel a little embarrassed to say the last thing I want to say. Although I was not well-educated when I was a child, I have never touched needles and threads much, except when I sew patches on my own and my family's clothes. I have never had the opportunity to do so at other times, so my craftsmanship is just that, as long as it can be worn.
So she is not in a hurry. It doesn't matter if she takes it slowly, as long as she can get it done before the baby is born.
Su Qingxue could only say comfortingly, "Slow work produces fine work, don't be anxious."
Maybe she had never thought that in this era, there were still girls who were not good at needlework. After all, she was a person who came here halfway, and after receiving her memories, she found those needleworks easy to handle.
Moreover, all the educated youth I knew before had unique skills, and I could say that among the people I knew, she was the worst at sewing.
Fortunately, Bai Jie had a good attitude and was not worried at all that her child would have no clothes to wear. After all, her sister-in-law had given her so many clothes that were 80% new, and the child had something to wear. So even if she failed to make the clothes in the end, she didn't have to worry.
"You can eat more pine nuts, hazelnuts, chestnuts and the like. They are very nutritious and good for your child's brain development. But don't eat too much, or you might get a sore throat."
"Really? I knew this stuff was delicious, but I didn't know it had so many benefits. It seems I have to eat more in the future. I also went up the mountain during this period, but I didn't walk too far. I just wandered around the foot of the mountain and picked up some. I thought it was enough to eat, but now it seems it's not enough. I'll go and get some more later."
When Bai Jie heard that it was good for the child, her eyes lit up. If it was said to be good for pregnant women, she might not take it too seriously, but when it comes to being good for the child, she would definitely take it very seriously.
"No need to change. I still have a lot at home. When Sun Rui gets home from get off work, ask him to pick it up from my house."
How much can a pregnant woman eat? Even if you give her 100 kilograms, she still can't finish it.
It's just two dollars, I don't feel bad at all giving it to her.
The mountain products are too cheap to be sold to the purchasing station, only one or two cents per pound, and they have to be peeled and sorted well. If the quality is even slightly worse, they will not be bought.
Su Qingxue wasn't short of those few dollars, so she never sold them and just kept them in her space.
But there are many people selling in the village. Throughout the year, apart from the little money they get from the land, they can only pick some mountain products to make some money.
Bai Jie felt a little embarrassed after hearing this. She felt that her family had taken advantage of her sister-in-law's family. "Sister-in-law, I can't keep taking advantage of your family, or I'll be too embarrassed to see anyone."
"You just think too much. Why are you so ashamed? How much are those mountain products worth? Given the relationship between your Sun Rui and my Zhou Huaian, isn't it worth a few dollars?"
Su Qingxue almost mentioned that the two of them were going into business together, but suddenly realized that if Sun Rui hadn't told his wife about the black market business and the hot spring vegetable trade, wouldn't it cause a conflict between the couple if she told them about it?
Bai Jie was deeply moved by these words. Her sister-in-law was so nice, and her brother was also so nice. When Sun Rui came back, she would definitely tell him more about her sister-in-law's kindness.
If she continued to postpone it, it would seem too polite and would weaken the friendship between the two families, so Bai Jie did not refuse and readily agreed, "Thank you, sister-in-law. It just so happens that Sun Rui's parents sent a few canned beef. If you don't mind, you can take two back to eat."
Bai Jie felt that it was better to have give and take. Since she had received good things from her sister-in-law, she should give some away.
Although she had no shortage of beef and could can it herself if she wanted, she knew that Bai Jie would not feel at ease if she did not accept it.
He happily put it away and said, "Thank you very much. I haven't eaten beef for a long time. I'd like to have some meat today."
Seeing her sister-in-law put it away, Bai Jie smiled widely and felt a little better.
He felt embarrassed for always taking advantage of his sister-in-law, but she was not the greedy person who would want to take more advantage of her. Now that he could give back a little, he felt happy.
Su Qingxue stayed here for more than two hours and left at around 11 o'clock.
When I got home, I went to the cellar to check the meat inside. All the meat had been packed and frozen. I had been thinking that if it had not been packed well, I would take advantage of the time to pack it up. Now it seems that I don't need to do it myself.
