Song Tanglan was still a little worried. After all, she was pregnant and had just fallen. This matter could be a big deal or a small one. Thinking back to the original book, her second sister had a miscarriage because of a fall. She felt heartbroken at the thought.
"It's okay, it's okay. The doctor just said that I just need to take the pregnancy-maintaining medicine for three days. I'm in good health, so it's nothing serious."
Song Tanglan didn't quite believe what her second sister said, so she looked at her second brother-in-law who was sitting not far away. When she saw him nod, she finally felt relieved.
"That's good, Second Sister. You don't have to go to work these few days. Rest well at home and let your second brother-in-law ask for leave for you."
When Cheng Fangyuan heard his younger sister talking about the argument he had just had with his wife, he immediately handed the task to her. He believed that his younger sister could persuade his wife.
It was just as he thought.
"Actually, I was just discussing this with your brother-in-law. The supply and marketing cooperative has been very busy lately. If I ask for leave, they won't be able to handle it."
Song Tangcheng didn't expect that things would pile up at once. She felt a headache when she thought about her colleagues who were so busy that they had no time to eat.
"Then you can't go to work either. You need to rest for a few days. You're still pregnant! If you really can't, find someone to cover your shift and have her work for a few days. Besides, it's not safe for you to ride a bicycle now that you're pregnant."
Song Tanglan didn't dare to ask her to quit her job. In this era, jobs were hard to come by and she couldn't just give up like that. But she was also worried about letting her second sister go to work with a big belly.
At this time, Song Tangcheng also thought that it would be difficult for her to ride a bike with a big belly, but this job was indeed hard-earned, and giving it up would be unfair to her parents-in-law.
At that time, her father-in-law had made a lot of connections and owed a lot of favors to people in order to get this job.
"This matter really needs to be discussed carefully. It's okay if the month is short, but it will be difficult to ride a bike when the month is long."
Cheng Fangyuan had been listening silently for a long time, and now he spoke.
"Ah Cheng, we won't be cooking tonight. Let's go to the old house to eat and tell our parents the good news."
Song Tangcheng was still a little hesitant when he heard this. "Will this cause trouble to my mother and sister-in-law?"
"What's the big deal? They're so happy to hear you're pregnant! Also, discuss your work with your parents and see if you can have your sister-in-law cover for you and then go back to work after you've recovered from giving birth."
Song Tangcheng thought this was indeed a good idea, but he looked at Song Tanglan next to him.
"Can't you let your younger sister take over?" She looked at Cheng Fangyuan with an inquiring tone. Although she had been in the countryside for two years, there were many things she didn't know. So she still needed her husband to answer her questions.
But before Cheng Fangyuan could reply, Song Tanglan shook her head like a rattle. "No, no, I can't do this. You want me to sell things? It's killing me. And I have to ride my bike to town so early every day. No, no, I can't do this. Please let Mrs. Sun do it!"
Song Tangcheng never expected that his little sister would be so resistant. Seeing her little look, he couldn't help but laugh.
Even Cheng Fangyuan, who usually doesn't like to laugh, couldn't help laughing at this moment.
"Looking at your resistance, it's like I'm going to put you on the execution ground. Okay, okay, I won't let you go. I just thought the work in the fields is so hard, and letting you go won't be so tiring."
Song Tanglan didn't see any difference between the two jobs. Although selling things only required standing, it was tiring to stand all the time. And dealing with so many unfamiliar customers every day would drive her crazy. She also found that the people here spoke with accents that she couldn't understand.
"No, no, I can do the farm work slowly, but I can't do your job."
"Okay, okay, I got it." Song Tangcheng was very impressed by Song Tanglan's ability to speak so openly about being lazy, but she was also speechless.
Song Tanglan breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that her second sister had not set her sights on her. Thinking of the things in the room, she ran back to the room. When she appeared in front of the two people again, she was holding a lot of things.
After putting all these things on the table, he sat down, picked up the kettle, poured a cup of warm water, and took a big sip.
"Tell my brother-in-law to put these things away. You can also leave the ball of yarn with me. I don't know how to knit, so it's useless to me if I keep it."
When Song Tangcheng saw the large table filled with food and daily necessities, she felt helpless and winked at her husband, asking him to take the things back and clean up.
"Ayuan, take a pound of sausage and bacon to the old house and ask my sister-in-law and the others to cook it. It will be a good snack tonight."
Cheng Fangyuan saw the sausages and bacon in the package, but he did not listen to his wife and shook his head.
"No need. Big brother asked someone to buy three pounds of meat, which is enough for us to eat. I'll save these for you and little sister."
Song Tangcheng thought that three pounds of meat was indeed enough, so she nodded. After seeing her husband leave, she pulled Song Tanglan aside to continue chatting.
"Don't do this next time. Keep these for yourself. Your second brother-in-law is very good at earning work points. We won't starve."
"Yes, yes, I know you want to praise your husband, but you don't have to praise him in front of your sister. Just praise him in front of him."
Of course Song Tanglan would not listen to her second sister. She had not taken out any food from the space during the more than ten days she had been in the countryside. She had not finished eating the food she left outside. Her second sister treated her like a child and brought her some food from time to time.
If I put these foods in the room, they will be of no use at all.
"You! You just don't listen, like a naughty monkey." Song Tangcheng didn't continue to argue with her. He sent her back to the room, put on an extra coat, and then the two of them slowly walked towards the old house.
The news of Song Tangcheng's pregnancy spread throughout the team in no time. The villagers they met along the way congratulated Song Tangcheng, and the two sisters responded with smiles.
When they finally arrived at Captain Cheng's house, Song Tanglan reached out and rubbed the corners of his stiff smile.
I was so stupid. Why did I go out with my second sister? Wouldn't it be better to let my second sister and second brother-in-law deal with this situation together? She almost froze up from laughing all the way.
Seeing her expression, Song Tangcheng knew she was upset. Thinking of the villagers' excessive enthusiasm, she said helplessly, "You! Whenever you encounter something like this, you just want to hide. If you don't have more contact, how will you integrate into rural life in the future?"
"Look at what you said, Second Sister. I have a very good relationship with my aunts. They always tell me all the gossip they have!"
