Chapter 174



Xiao Ling is indeed blessed with a chubby body in this era. Just like the elders like slightly plump girls, they are popular, which is different from the aesthetic view that thinness is beautiful in the future.

Lin Yiyi: "But this is not good for your health, you have to be careful."

Xiao Ling: "I will definitely control myself. Qin Jian, Qin Qiang, come over and say hello to your second aunt."

Qin Jian: "Second aunt."

Qin Qiang: "Second aunt."

The two brothers are two years apart in age, now one is 12 and the other is 10. However, with a worker in the family, the future of the two children is different. In the past, the two children's education would have to be carefully calculated, but now, there is no need to consider it at all. Not to mention that Xiao Ling was willing to let them go to school when she had no money, and now that she has money, she is even more willing.

Lin Yiyi: "Hey, you've grown so tall." Then, she took out two red envelopes from her pocket and said, "Here, these are red envelopes from your second aunt." The two brothers looked at Xiao Ling, and Xiao Ling said, "These are from your second aunt, just take them."

The two brothers happily took the red envelopes, and then opened them impatiently, only to see a dime inside. Their mouths were bent with joy. There was nothing they could do, the red envelopes they had received before were all worth a few cents, and the dime from their second aunt was the biggest.

Xiao Ling: "Second sister-in-law, why haven't you seen my second brother?"

Lin Yiyi pointed to the room and said, "She's playing with the kids in there. If she doesn't go out today, she'll just lie in bed." Just as she finished speaking, Xiao Yu came out carrying Xiao Eleven.

Xiao Ling: "Second brother."

Xiao Ling's husband hadn't said a word since he came in, but when he saw Xiao Yu, he called out, "Second Brother."

Xiao Yu nodded: "You are here, have you had breakfast?"

Xiao Ling’s husband: “I ate it.”

Lin Yiyi: "Breakfast is steamed buns and seaweed soup. You must be hungry after the journey. Eat some more."

They ate steamed buns and seaweed soup, which was hot and smooth, and everyone was very satisfied. Before they finished their breakfast, Qin Xiangju came over and was speechless when she saw her daughter eating breakfast here.

In the morning, my daughter and her family of four went to the old house first. After standing there for a while, they came to the second son's house and had breakfast there.

Qin Xiangju: "Yiyi, come to the old house for lunch at noon. Don't forget to bring your brothers with you."

Lin Yiyi: "Okay, thank you, Mom." Although she agreed, Lin Yiyi would not bring her brothers over. At noon, she made noodles for her brothers, pork ribs and pickled cabbage noodles, so they would not eat too happily.

There were many people at the old house for lunch. Not only the second and third rooms were there, but even Qi Bocai from the first room came. This was the first time that Lin Yiyi and Qi Bocai had a meal together since the quarrel between the two rooms. However, they didn't talk to each other, not even in private. Lin Yiyi was chatting with Liang and Xiao Ling, and Qi Bocai didn't come to where she was. And between Qi Bocai and Lin Yiyi, Liang and Xiao Ling must have pulled Lin Yiyi to chat, so Qi Bocai sat alone.

In the yard, Xiao Jixiang and Xiao Shiyi were playing football with Qin Jian and Qin Qiang. It was the first time for Qin Jian and Qin Qiang to play football, and they were very excited. Xiao Rui from the eldest house watched from the side, but did not join in the fun. Although he had envy in his eyes, he knew that they would not welcome him.

Xiao Rui is not someone who doesn't know right from wrong. Although his mother always speaks ill of the second wife in front of him, Xiao Rui doesn't take it to heart, because his father once said that his mother's words should go in one ear and out the other. As a son, he can't contradict his mother. Besides, he is young and can't say that his mother is wrong, but he should know right from wrong in his heart. Xiao Rui sighed alone. He didn't understand why his mother quarreled with the second aunt. If his mother didn't quarrel with the second aunt, then he could play with Xiao Shiyi and the others.

Of course, as a son, he didn't mean to blame his mother, he just couldn't understand it.

There are many people in the old house. The old people are in a particularly good mood when they see the son and daughter-in-law, grandchildren, and married daughters. If it were a few years ago, who could have thought that there would be a day like today?

Grandpa Xiao looked at everyone and narrowed his eyes with a smile. He didn't have many truly happy days in his life. He had suffered so much in the past. His two sons were gone, leaving only Xiao Daqiang. He didn't dare to express the bitterness in his heart. Later, when the country was liberated, he was truly happy once. Then the eldest grandson was born, which meant that their Xiao family finally had descendants. The meaning of dragon and phoenix twins is good, but to be honest, the joy of the birth of dragon and phoenix twins is not as great as the joy of the birth of the eldest grandson for Grandpa Xiao. Because this was a new population after the death of two sons in the Xiao family, it had a kind of replacement effect. Of course, he was also happy when the dragon and phoenix twins were born. Later, the third child was born, and naturally he was not as happy as the first two, but he was still happy.

Now looking at the family, from three people in their Xiao family to more than twenty people, Grandpa Xiao would smile even in his dreams, and the children are all so promising.

At lunch time, Grandpa Xiao drank a little too much wine and passed out before he finished his meal. In the end, Xiao Yu carried him to the bed.

After lunch, Xiao Ling's family went back home. They walked back and forth, and it was already afternoon when they got home. However, Xiao Shiyi and his family were a little reluctant to leave Qin Jian and Qin Qiang after playing for a while.

Xiao Eleven waved at them and said, "Come and play with us sometime in the future." No one knew who heard this from.

Qin Qiang: "I will come. You can also come to our house to play."

Xiao Shiyi: "Do you have a ball at home?"

Qin Qiang's heart broke: "No."

Xiao Shiyi: "Then I won't come. You can come to my house to play."

Qin Qiang: "Okay."

The Qin brothers left reluctantly, and Xiaoyi was taken home by Xiaoyu. At nearly two o'clock, Zhang Xiaojun came with Fangfang and Fangcao: "Sister, brother-in-law, we are here." They brought gifts, a bag of brown sugar and an old hen.

Lin Yiyi was stunned for a long time. Zhang Xiaojun actually brought a hen. Did the sun rise from the west? Or was it going to rain red? In fact, it was Fang Fang who decided to buy the hen. Fang Fang spent five yuan to buy it from the villagers. First, they didn't know what gift to give, and second, it was because of the pants that Lin Yiyi gave to Fang Fang. Fang Fang was not the kind of person who would wear pants that others had worn, but she liked the pants that Lin Yiyi gave her very much. The pants were no different from brand new. If you want to buy such a pair of pants, let alone five yuan, even ten yuan would not be enough. Clothes made of woolen material are expensive. So Fang Fang suggested buying a hen when visiting for the New Year. Even Fang Cao agreed with his sister. He felt that the last time his sister came to her eldest sister's house, her eldest sister-in-law gave her food and a scarf, so the gifts for this New Year's greeting should not be too shabby.

They all agreed, so Zhang Xiaojun naturally had no objection. Although he had not thought about giving a hen, when Fang Fang suggested giving a hen, he agreed without much thought. He was a man who always calculated things clearly, but this time he was willing to give a five-yuan gift, perhaps because he felt the love of family during this period.

Lin Yiyi hurriedly asked: "Why are you giving me a chicken?"

Zhang Xiaojun: "This is the first time Fang Fang and I celebrate the New Year together, so we can't be too shabby."

Fang Fang: "That's right, we don't know what to give."

Lin Yiyi: "That's great, I'll kill a chicken today and make braised chicken for you tonight."

Fang Fang's eyes lit up: "That's great. The braised chicken nuggets made by elder sister must be delicious.

Lin Yiyi smiled and said, "By the way, why didn't the army come?"

Zhang Xiaojun: "My eldest brother and sister-in-law went to the hospital after lunch. My sister-in-law had a stomachache, so she was taken to the hospital by a bullock cart from the village."

Lin Yiyi was surprised: "What a coincidence that we have to go to the hospital today." Thinking of this, she said to Xiao Yu, "Brother Yu, take everyone to kill the chicken and pluck the chicken feathers. I'll go to the hospital to take a look."

Xiao-Woo: "Okay."

Lin Yiyi rode her bicycle to the hospital and arrived at the hospital before 3 o'clock. Because Zhang Xiaojun and others didn't know about Lin Zhen's arrival in the hospital, Lin Yiyi asked the nurse directly. After learning the situation from the nurse, Lin Yiyi went directly to the ward. In the ward, Lin Zhen was lying on the bed, accompanied by Lin Dajun and the captain's wife. When they saw Lin Yiyi, the captain's wife hurriedly said, "Why are you here? Xiaozhen is fine. The doctor said it's not time for her to give birth yet, but it's safer to stay in the hospital."

Lin Yiyi: "I heard about this from Erjun, so I came to take a look. I hope everything is ok. If nothing is wrong, I will go back first."

The captain's wife also understood: "Hey, you go back, I'm here." She didn't dare to let Lin Yiyi stay to take care of her daughter. After all, she was a married aunt.

Lin Yiyi: "Why don't you come back with me? I'll have Dajun bring dinner to you after I prepare it. He can ride a bicycle, so it's more convenient for him to go back and forth. Besides, it's still the first month of the lunar year, and I guess there's nothing to eat in the state-owned hotel.

The captain's wife: "This is good."

Lin Yiyi: "Then we'll go back first. Please ask Auntie to take care of Xiaozhen. No matter what happens, the most important thing is that the adults are well." Her words also carried a reminder. When pregnant women give birth, there have always been many problems in ancient times. Of course, the captain's wife is Lin Zhen's biological mother, so she will definitely protect her daughter, but in order to prevent the captain's wife from hesitating and delaying time, Lin Yiyi reminded her.

The captain's wife also understood what she meant: "I know, it is a blessing for our Xiaozhen to marry into your family."

Lin Yiyi: "Of course not. It is Dajun's fortune to marry a virtuous wife like Xiaozhen. Dajun is ignorant of worldly affairs. If he hadn't been taken care of by his in-laws, who knows what would have happened."

The captain's wife: "No, the army is filial and capable."

After they blew each other for a while, Lin Yiyi and Lin Dajun went back. When they got home, it was already four o'clock. Seeing Lin Dajun coming back, Lin Sijun and others asked about Lin Zhen's condition. Knowing that Lin Zhen was fine, they were relieved.
