Lu Yuan gloated for a while before happily hanging up the phone.
What's wrong with the seven Calabash Brothers? They each have their own unique abilities, isn't that great!
After thinking for a moment, he called Xiao Fan, who was in the county town.
"Xiao Fan, I have good news for you. Your sister-in-law is pregnant again, this time with four."
Xiao Fan exclaimed with delight, "Congratulations, Brother Yuan!"
Three plus four equals seven. Yuan-ge is amazing!
If Yuan Ge and his wife are so fertile, does that mean he won't need to get married and have children in the future?
“Brother Yuan, if you ever think you have too many children and want to give them away to someone else, please consider me.”
Lu Yuan's smile froze. "Get lost, get lost, don't even think about it. If you want a son, have one yourself. Don't try to take my child."
Xiao Fan: He doesn't want a son, he only wants Yuan Ge's son.
He discovered that Yuan Ge's son, Yu Xue, was intelligent, clever, and adorable, unlike any other child.
Lu Yuan angrily hung up the phone.
Hmph, I won't tell Xiao Fan about any good things from now on. Everyone else congratulates him, but he's always trying to take advantage of my kid.
I'm not crazy, how could I possibly give my child away? No matter how many, it's impossible.
"What's wrong with you? Why the long face? Did someone upset you? Or are you unhappy because you found out I'm pregnant with quadruplets?"
As soon as Lu Yuan returned home, Wen Moxue noticed that his expression was off.
Lu Yuan hurriedly explained, "Wife, how could I not be happy? I'm almost going crazy with joy."
She helped the person into their room and continued, "It's all Xiao Fan's fault. He heard you were pregnant with quadruplets and wanted me to give him one of his children. Humph, dream on!"
"That's wishful thinking. Can't he have a child himself?"
"That's right. I'll call his dad later and ask them to find him a few blind dates in the provincial capital, or just pick one and send it over to him."
Wen Moxue wholeheartedly agreed, "That's a good idea. With Xiao Fan's personality, he probably won't be able to find a partner on his own and will have to rely on his family."
Lu Yuan thought of the scene where he saw a girl confessing her feelings to Xiao Fan last time, and nodded seriously.
"Indeed, he can offend women to death with just one word, how could he possibly find a partner?"
Unless someone is eager to do it.
It has to be said that Xiao Fan is good-looking and has a naturally aloof temperament. Plus, he comes from the provincial capital and his family is well-off, so there are actually some people who are eager to get close to him.
He was overjoyed after receiving Lu Yuan's call with good news. His usually cold and stern face softened considerably today, and anyone could tell that he was in a good mood.
As a result, two more women wanted to strike up a conversation with me today.
"Secretary Xiao, let's go to the cafeteria for lunch together later!"
"Secretary Xiao, some colleagues said they're going to see a movie after get off work, shall we go together?"
Xiao Fan's expression, which had finally calmed down, darkened again.
"No!"
"I'm not going!"
Luo Yaoguo jokingly added, "Secretary Xiao, you don't have to do nothing but work all day long. You should also interact with other colleagues more often."
He knew his niece liked Xiao Fan, but he also knew what kind of person she was. However, besides his niece, there were other decent young female colleagues in his workplace.
Xiao Fan said seriously, "County Chief Luo, I'm here to work, not to have dinner and watch movies with people."
Luo Yaoguo choked, "Okay, that makes sense."
The news that Wen Moxue was pregnant again, this time with quadruplets, quickly spread throughout the brigade, causing another uproar and further confirming that Wen Moxue was a very lucky person.
People brought gifts to offer their congratulations, hoping to share in the joy.
Some had a few eggs, some had a bowl of kimchi, some had a head of cabbage, and others had a few sweet potatoes or a handful of dried green beans.
No matter how much, it's all about friendship.
The couple accepted the gifts politely and gave each person a few candies as a return gift.
Everyone was overjoyed; Wen Moxue's pregnancy with quadruplets was a joyous occasion for the entire brigade.
Before the excitement of that joyous occasion had even died down, the production brigade received another piece of good news: the long-awaited piglets were finally delivered by the commune.
"Captain, go check quickly, the piglets have arrived." Someone came to inform Lu Guoan.
Lu Guoan quickly got off the kang (a heated brick bed), hurriedly put on his shoes, and ran to the pig farm.
"Have you notified A-Yuan yet?"
"Edamame went to call it."
Lu Guoan agreed, and by the time he arrived at the breeding farm, Lu Yuan and Yu Shaoheng had already been called over.
"Captain, there are exactly 300 piglets, but 16 of them look listless. I'm not sure if there's anything wrong with them," Yu Shaoheng said.
Now that he's taken on the role of manager of this pig farm, he has to be responsible and the first thing he has to do is check whether the piglets that are delivered have any problems.
Lu Guoan went to check on the 16 piglets he mentioned, and they were indeed listless and looked like they were about to die.
The joy from before had faded considerably. These piglets couldn't afford to get hurt, otherwise the losses would be huge; each one cost them 10 yuan.
"If the piglets are still alive when they are delivered, our mission is complete."
"That's what one of the staff members who came to deliver the piglets said."
"That's right, hurry up and sign this, we're leaving as soon as you've signed it."
Lu Guoan didn't want to sign. If he did, and the 16 piglets died, who would they hold responsible?
Judging from the piglets' condition, they might die eventually if we let them die, and then we can legitimately ask the leaders to give them a few more piglets.
The staff member noticed his thoughts and urged, "Hurry up and sign, we need to rush back for lunch. We didn't even have breakfast in order to deliver the piglets to you as soon as possible, and we're starving now."
