Chapter 227 Something will happen
Fang Shuyu turned and left, then thought of something and took out a small stack of ten-yuan bills from her bag and stuffed them into Jiang Duo's pocket: "Buy her some food."
Jiang Duo was about to return them, but Fang Shuyu said: "Don't refuse. You two are such a nuisance, I won't give them to you. This is for my future grandchildren. Take it and take care of her health."
She sighed and turned away.
Jiang Duo looked at the stack of bills in his hand, thought about it, and accepted it.
He turned and went into the house, and put the money on the dining table. Mingzhu looked up at him and understood at a glance, "Did your mother give it to you?"
"She said it was for the health of the grandchildren, and I couldn't refuse it on behalf of the children."
Mingzhu smiled, put down her chopsticks, picked up the stack of bills on the table and counted them.
"Wow, two hundred yuan, your mother is quite generous."
Jiang Duo sat at the dining table, with a calm face, "You keep it, buy whatever you want to eat, don't treat yourself badly."
Mingzhu thought about it, and really put the money into her pocket, and said with a smile: "I won't accept it on behalf of the children, you accept it."
"Yes."
Mingzhu casually pushed the dumplings in an aluminum lunch box in front of Jiang Duo.
Jiang Duo pushed the aluminum lunch box back to Mingzhu without saying anything, and said firmly: "You eat, eat all these dumplings and pork chop soup, I will eat what I brought from the cafeteria."
Mingzhu was speechless for a while.
"Husband, these are two aluminum boxes full of dumplings, at least fifty, and a big can of pork ribs and pork chop soup, I can't finish them in two meals."
Jiang Duo insisted and looked at her seriously: "You have to eat as much as possible, Zhuzhu, you are really too thin, you have to take care of your body."
Mingzhu understood that he was scared by his mother's words.
"Honey, whether giving birth is dangerous or not does not depend on whether the mother is fat, but on whether her body is healthy. I've only lost some weight, but I'm very healthy, you know that."
"But I'm worried, so you'd better eat more, dear."
Mingzhu: ...
If I don't convince him today, he will get sick from being monitored every day in the future.
She suddenly had an idea, pulled a stool and sat next to him, looking at him seriously, "My grandmother once told me a story that happened in her cousin's family. In that era, it was allowed for a man to have many wives and concubines. Her cousin married one wife and two concubines. One of the concubines was very favored, scheming, and also helped with the housekeeping.
After she knew that the other concubine was pregnant, she had no good intentions, but pretended to be kind and sent a lot of supplements to the pregnant concubine's room to replenish her body. As a result, when the concubine was about to give birth, the baby in her belly absorbed too much nutrition and was too big, so she died of dystocia, leaving two lives."
Jiang Duo's brows tightened. He had heard people talking about the matter of children being too big to give birth at home before.
He silently put the box of dumplings in front of Mingzhu in front of him, "Then just eat your normal amount and don't be hungry at any time."
Seeing that Jiang Duo had been extremely nervous since he knew she was pregnant...
Mingzhu thought for a while, raised her hand to hold his arm, and comforted: "Husband, don't take pregnancy as a big deal, this is a natural pregnancy. During the process of life, we just eat and drink normally, and what we should do now, you are so nervous now, it makes me uneasy."
Jiang Duo nodded and held her hand with his backhand, "Okay, I understand, I will adjust my mood."
He doesn't ask for anything else now, he just wants his wife to be healthy and grow old with him.
Just after they finished their meal, Wang Cuiju's voice came from outside the door: "Sister, come open the door."
Jiang Duo got up and went out. Seeing Wang Cuiju and her husband carrying a large basket full of eggs, he was stunned for a moment, "What is this..."
Wang Cuiju let go of her hand, rubbing her wrist, and asked Jiang Duo and Zhao Shengping to carry the eggs into the house together.
Zhao Shengping smiled and said, "This is your daughter-in-law. She won the bet with someone. Your daughter-in-law is really amazing. I admire her very much!"
Seeing that he seemed to know nothing, Wang Cuiju proudly told him about the group of people who slandered Mingzhu, but Mingzhu turned the tables. Mingzhu
just came out of the kitchen after cleaning up the dishes and said with a smile: "His mother came just now, and I didn't have time to tell him."
Seeing the basket full of eggs, she was also a little surprised, "Why are there so many!"
Wang Cuiju waved her hands: "This is fifty-four baskets, exactly five hundred and forty eggs, of course it's a lot, I heard that the two supply and marketing cooperatives were all bought out by these bitchy women today. This is only a large part, I still have half a basket at home, Zhao Shengping and I have to go there again later."
"No, no, no, we won this together, we should split it in half."
Wang Cuiju quickly retorted: "Why split it? You obviously won this yourself, you can keep it and eat it slowly. You're pregnant now, so it can help you build up your body."
Mingzhu was helpless. There were more than 500 eggs, and she and Jiang Duo could only eat four a day at most. It would take three months to eat 500 eggs!
"It's not fresh if it's been stored for too long. Sister-in-law, if you have nothing to do in the afternoon, let's make tea leaf eggs at home. We can share it among the families and eat it while it's fresh. Isn't it delicious?"
"Okay, then I'll come with you."
Jiang Duo thought of what his aunt said, Mingzhu can't do heavy work, so he immediately said, "Mingzhu can't work hard, I'll do it when I come back in the evening."
Mingzhu was speechless: "I told you, it's not that exaggerated, it's just a matter of lighting a fire."
Wang Cuiju couldn't help laughing when she saw Jiang Duo protecting Mingzhu so much: "Don't worry, your wife is in charge of the command, I will do all the work, and she won't be tired."
Hearing Wang Cuiju say this, Jiang Duo felt a little relieved.
In the afternoon, after he and Zhao Shengping went to work, Wang Cuiju started to work in the kitchen.
She was determined not to let Mingzhu do it, which made Mingzhu feel a little embarrassed.
Fortunately, Wang Cuiju had a big pot at home. She went to the big pot directly, and chatted with Mingzhu while it was burning.
Speaking of the Huang family, Wang Cuiju slapped her thigh as if she had thought of something: "Oh, how could I forget the important matter, Zhuzhu, let me tell you, when I went to ask those families for eggs just now, I heard that Huang Guofu would be back tomorrow."
Mingzhu frowned. Who is Huang Guofu?
If the surname is Huang...
"The eldest son of the Huang family?"
"Yes, it's him." Wang Cuiju frowned when she mentioned this man.
Mingzhu was a little puzzled: "Why do you feel so worried about his return? Did you have a feud?"
"No, I told you before that he was spoiled by Huang Dejiang and his wife, but in fact, he is more than just spoiled, he is really bad. Everyone in the family compound is worried about him. If anyone offends him, he will be in trouble once he leaves the compound!"
She said, sighing: "But no one can find evidence to deal with him, and there is nothing they can do to him. So even though they are all annoyed with him, they can only praise him and hope that he will not come to their house to do evil. In short, he is a ghost. You have had so many unpleasant things with his family before, I am really worried that he will target you. You are still pregnant, but you must not be angry with him. If you provoke him, something bad will happen, understand?"
