As they were eating and talking, they heard Yang Xiaomei shouting outside, "Xu Ning, Xu Ning, come here quickly, Wei Lanlan is about to give birth."
After hearing this, Xu Ning immediately put down his bowl and chopsticks and said to the three people, "I'll go over and take a look. You guys can eat slowly. You don't have to wait for me."
After saying that, he ran towards the Youth League Home. As soon as he reached the door, he saw Chen Xiangdong, who was sweating profusely, riding a bicycle coming from the direction of the village. Sitting on the bicycle was Aunt Fang, the village midwife.
She immediately stepped aside and let the two of them go in first. When Chen Xiangdong saw her, he didn't even bother to say hello. He parked his bicycle in the yard and pulled Aunt Fang into the house.
Xu Ning saw Yang Xiaomei standing at the door and asked, "Didn't you say it's not time yet? Why is it that you're about to give birth?"
Yang Xiaomei glanced at Gu Wenjing who was at a loss beside her and said in a low voice, "Wei Lanlan was enjoying the cool air at the door after dinner just now, and was bumped into by Gu Wenjing who ran out of the house. That's why she got angry."
The two of them were standing outside the door, and when they heard Wei Lanlan's cry, they were a little worried.
About half an hour later, a baby's cry was heard from inside, and soon after, Aunt Fang came out smiling.
He said to the people outside, "It's born, a big fat boy, both mother and child are safe."
Xu Ning and Yang Xiaomei both breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this, and Gu Wenjing even cried with joy. If something really happened to Wei Lanlan, Chen Xiangdong would not let her go.
Yang Xiaomei and Xu Ning ignored Gu Wenjing and went straight into the house. Wei Lanlan was very weak and smiled when she saw them come in.
The two walked to the kang and looked at the baby in the cradle, then asked, "How is your health? Are you feeling unwell?"
"I'm fine, just a little exhausted."
Then he asked Chen Xiangdong, "Where is that damn girl Gu Wenjing?"
Gu Wenjing, who was just about to enter the door, stood there not daring to move when she heard Wei Lanlan's words.
Xu Ning said, "You should have a good rest first. We can talk about other things after you are out of confinement. I will go home and get you some eggs and brown sugar. I will ask Chen Xiangdong to cook for you later. The most important thing is to take good care of your body first."
Chen Xiangdong said hurriedly, "No need, we have all these at home."
Yang Xiaomei also said, "I have prepared something for Wei Lanlan as well, so don't worry about it. Just take care of Wei Lanlan first, and we will go out first."
The two opened the door and saw Gu Wenjing still standing there, Jiaohua and Wang Juanjuan talking to her.
Yang Xiaomei sent Xu Ning to the door. After they discussed how to give a gift to Wei Lanlan, they went back.
Xu An saw Xu Ning coming back and asked hurriedly, "Sister, has Sister Lanlan given birth?"
Xu Ning smiled and said, "She gave birth to a big fat boy. I'll come back and bring her some eggs."
The next afternoon, when the three of them went to school, Xu Ning picked some cucumbers and beans and asked the two to take them home.
The adults in both families were very sensible. Every time the two children came to play, they would bring food, snacks or canned food.
On the day of Wei Lanlan's full moon, she grabbed Gu Wenjing and beat him up, making Gu Wenjing scream in pain.
When Wang Juanjuan and Jiaohua went up to stop the fight, they were also beaten up. Gu Wenping saw his cousin being beaten so badly and wanted to go up to stop the fight, but was stopped by Chen Xiangdong.
Jiaohua's face was scratched by someone during the chaos, and a strand of Wang Juanjuan's hair was pulled out, not to mention Gu Wenjing's miserable condition.
Xu Ning was standing in the yard. He heard Gu Wenjing's screams like a pig being slaughtered coming from the Youth League House, and he laughed with glee.
After breakfast, Xu Ning went to the village to get farm tools and went to work. Today she was assigned to weed in the cornfield. Yang Xiaomei brought over two tomatoes and gave her one. They found a shady place and sat down to eat.
Xu Ning asked, "Why are there only a few people working in the Youth Farm today? Did they all ask for leave to go to the city?"
Yang Xiaomei said disdainfully, "Gu Wenping and Lin Miao went to the city. Wang Juanjuan found a boyfriend. I heard he's quite capable. He seems to be working in the county committee. Her boyfriend came to pick her up this morning and went to the city."
Xu Ning paused and asked, "The various committees, that's a pretty good unit, how did the two of them know each other?"
Yang Xiaomei said, "I heard that Wang Juanjuan went to the city to make a phone call last month and was hit by a bicycle rider. That man is her current boyfriend. Now Gu Wenjing and Jiaohua often go to the city to play with her."
Xu Ning smiled and said, "This is great. Gu Wenping and Lin Miao are married, and Wang Juanjuan has also found a good partner. The Youth Academy will be peaceful in the future."
"It's still quiet, just wait and see, there will be more noise later."
When Xu Ning returned home, he walked around the house, put away all the things that shouldn't be in the house, and placed a book of leaders' quotations in a conspicuous place.
She now goes into the city once every half a month, and brings out some fine grains and meat when she goes in. There isn't much grain left from last year, so the house looks a little empty.
Looking at the time, Xu Mo should be done with school, so she took her shoulder pole and bucket and prepared to fetch some water.
He walked to the cowshed and coughed twice. After a while, Xu Mo opened the door and looked around. Seeing that there was no one around, he walked to the well and squatted there, pretending to play with ants.
He lowered his head and asked, "Sister, what's the matter?"
While fetching water, Xu Ning said, "Xiao Mo, Wang Juanjuan found a boyfriend in the city, who works in various committees and is said to be a minor official.
Ask Dad and Uncle Lu to take out the things that shouldn’t be in the house and send them to me in the evening, and ask Mom and Aunt Lu to patch up some more clothes.
Please clean up Grandpa Qi's room. Don't sleep at my place at night during this period. Just sleep with Grandpa Qi. ”
Xu Mo poked the ant hole in the ground with a small stick and said, "Sister, I understand everything. I'll tell Dad and the others when I get home. You should be careful too."
Xu Ning nodded softly and left with the water. Xu Mo played there for a while before going back.
After hearing this, Father Xu and Father Lu said, "There's nothing unusual at home. The weather is hot now, so send those coats, cotton-padded clothes, and the kettle in our house to Xiaoning in the evening. We can cook the little grains at home for dinner tonight."
After filling the water tank, Xu Ning went to Wei Lanlan and played with her son Xiaopang first.
Then he whispered to her, "Little sister Yang told me that Wang Juanjuan's boyfriend is from a committee and I heard he has some power. When you beat Gu Wenjing last time, you also beat her up. I don't know if she holds a grudge. Be careful with what you say and do recently, and check if there's anything inappropriate in the house."
Wei Lanlan was shocked when she heard this and said, "I wouldn't have thought of this if you hadn't mentioned it. Xu Ning, thank you!"
When Chen Xiangdong came back, Wei Lanlan told him what Xu Ning had said.
Chen Xiangdong searched the house thoroughly, took out several books from the cabinet and burned them.
He called Sun Hao out and whispered for a while.
Sun Hao thought for a moment and said, "Tomorrow I will ride Yang Wenli's bicycle into the city and buy a few copies of the leadership's quotations to put in the house. Later I will also hint to Liu Shaojie and Zhang Hairong that these two guys often read some idle books, so I will ask them to put them away quickly."
