Chapter 23: Giving Birth



Lin Miaoyin suddenly felt embarrassed, put down her hand, sat up straight, raised her eyebrows at him, and said, "Come on."

Meng Yuanzheng asked her to turn her back to him and gently pinched her shoulders with his big hands.

Compared to the strenuous massage she had just given him, he felt much more relaxed. His palms easily wrapped around her shoulders, and he twisted his fingers to help her stretch her muscles lightly and steadily.

"A little lower." She commanded comfortably.

Meng Yuanzheng reached down and pinched the back of her neck, "Here?"

"Right here, use your strength."

Rubbed it gently.

"I haven't eaten yet, please try harder."

He squeezed harder and heard the bones cracking. Meng Yuanzheng was frightened and stopped. Her neck was so thin and looked extremely fragile in his hands. What if he broke it?

But Lin Miaoyin felt comfortable. She always felt something was wrong with her neck, an indescribable discomfort. Now that her bones were popping, she felt relaxed, just like the feeling of stretching after waking up from sleep for a long time.

She looked back at him, "What's wrong? Keep going."

"Yeah." Seeing that she was fine, Meng Yuanzheng continued to massage her back for a while, and then imitated the massage technique she had just given him to massage her head as well.

"Can you please stop covering my face with your hands?" she said speechlessly.

She just hugged his head to make it easier to use force, but his hands were so big that he just grabbed her head in his hands, and his fingers even reached her eyelids.

Meng Yuanzheng felt a little helpless and adjusted his movements a few times until Lin Miaoyin was satisfied before continuing.

After a busy day, I can finally go to bed refreshed.

The next day we went to work as usual. Today's task was to cut the sweet potato vines.

Sweet potatoes were planted at the end of April, and now the sweet potato vines have covered the entire ground. If the vines grow too lushly, they will compete for nutrients, causing the sweet potatoes to not grow large. Moreover, the vines will branch out into many branches from the main vine, so the excess vines must be cut off, leaving only the main vine.

The young leaves of the cut vines can be used for cooking, while the old leaves can be fed to pigs.

Meng Yuanzheng's task today was to make compost. Watching him leave with the bucket on his shoulder, Lin Miaoyin took her sickle and put on the large backpack, ready to go to the field.

Cutting sweet potato vines is a very important matter. If the main vine is cut accidentally, the sweet potato will be gone. Therefore, the team leader did not dare to let the new educated youth do it and only let them continue to pull out weeds.

The sweet potato field is on the hillside, not far from where Meng Yuanzheng and his team work. Separated by the river, the two sides can even sing folk songs together.

"Let's sing folk songs, one side sings and the other side joins in~" Lin Miaoyin was in a good mood, humming a song as she walked up the hillside.

Fortunately, I had a massage last night. Although I have some muscle soreness today, it doesn’t have much impact.

This time there was no division of labor between people who were responsible for cutting which piece of vine. It was a collective labor. Sister-in-law Cui Fen was also in the team cutting the sweet potato vines, and the two of them worked together.

Put the big backpack aside, squat down and smooth out the criss-crossing sweet potato vines all over the ground, separate the main vines and branch vines, and then decide which ones to cut. Don't cut all the branch vines, leave some.

The cut vines should be carefully arranged one by one, with the head and tail aligned, and put into a backpack to make it convenient to pinch the tops and tender leaves when the time comes.

Cui Fen was worried that her sister-in-law would be as impatient as before, so she accompanied her throughout the whole process and carefully explained how to distinguish and how to cut.

Lin Miaoyin listened carefully and acted carefully without making any mistakes. Cui Fen was very satisfied, and the two talked while cutting.

They chatted about some family matters first, and Cui Fen asked if the two had quarreled in the past few days.

Speaking of quarrels, this is also a headache for the Lin family.

When Lin Miaoyin married Meng Yuanzheng, it was she who cried and begged, and threatened to jump into a well to get Lin's father and mother to agree. After she got married, Meng Yuanzheng's true colors were revealed. They often quarreled and fought, and he would go back to her parents' home at any time.

What could Lin's father and mother do? They would not let their daughter be bullied by outsiders. They had to support her and call Meng Yuanzheng over to give him a lesson, letting him know that if he wanted to live a comfortable life in Niutou Bay, he had to behave himself.

Meng Yuanzheng was also a man who "knew the current situation". He coaxed the girl back home with kind words, but after a few days, they started quarreling again.

"No, he's been very well behaved lately." Lin Miaoyin answered honestly.

"Hiss." Cui Fen stopped, "This is not normal. You should keep a close eye on him. If he is having sex with someone else outside and pretending to be honest at home, don't be fooled."

Lin Miaoyin pursed her lips and nodded, "I know."

"By the way, Dad praised him yesterday." Cui Fen said.

"Oh? What are you praising?"

Cui Fen looked at her with a complicated expression, "Look at you, when you mentioned Dad and praised him, you smiled as if you had picked up money."

"Oh, stop laughing." Lin Miaoyin put away her smile and pretended to be indifferent. "I'm just curious. Dad has never praised him before."

"He works better now than before and doesn't make any mistakes." Cui Fen said as she cut off a handful of sweet potato vines and removed the rotten leaves. "This is really strange. How come he is willing to work all of a sudden? He's like a different person after falling into the pond."

Lin Miaoyin paused. That’s right. She became a different person after she fell into the pond.

Wait, he's a different person, right?

No way, how could it be such a coincidence? She was more inclined to believe that he fell into the water and the laziness in his brain was washed away, or that he was scared by the "divorce" and dared not to act like a troublemaker again.

"What are you thinking about?" Cui Fen pushed her. Lin Miaoyin came back to her senses and didn't think about it any more. "It's okay. Well, what day is it today?"

"Friday. Oh, and by the way, the day after tomorrow is the review meeting between him and Zhang Hui. You should supervise him and make sure he doesn't run off and hide that day."

"Where is Zhang Hui now?"

"She went back to the brigade yesterday. The team has already reported her to the police. I heard from my mother that she will probably be assigned to raise pigs in the future."

Raising pigs and cattle is the "lowest level" job. It is hard work, with low work points and great responsibility, and it is assigned to people with bad backgrounds.

"You think that if they meet again, and Zhang Hui finds out that she has been given a serious warning while Meng Yuanzheng is fine, will they start fighting?" Cui Fen said gloatingly.

Lin Miaoyin was silent. If it were the original Meng Yuanzheng, she would have happily clapped their hands in a fight. But when she thought of the man who quietly watched her take a bath last night, she felt a little heartbroken.

"Mom told me yesterday that she didn't know when you two would have a baby."

"What?" Lin Miaoyin was stunned.

"You've been married for a few months, isn't it time to consider having a baby?" Cui Fen has only been married for a year and has been pregnant for several months.

Lin Miaoyin had never thought about this before and felt quite embarrassed. "It's too early to think about this."

"What's too early? If you're pregnant now, you can give birth next spring, which means you won't be able to have your confinement period during the hottest season." Cui Fen looked very disappointed. "Besides, if you have a baby, your man will love you more, and he will know that he has greater responsibilities, and his heart will be tied down."

Lin Miaoyin thought that if her sister-in-law were in modern times, she would definitely be an emotional expert.

Seeing her silly look, Cui Fen patted her and asked, "How long has it been since you did that?"

The author has something to say: Cui Fen: How long has it been since you did that?

Lin Miaoyin (shivering): I can’t remember.

Cui Fen (angrily): We’ve only been married for a few months and it’s like this. Either he has someone else outside or he’s not good enough!

Meng Yuanzheng:! ! ! Sister-in-law, please listen to my explanation.
