She also relied on this skill to support her two children.
Song Tanglan finally sat down when Aunt Ma spoke. A group of people gathered around her, and she asked curiously.
"Is there anything I should pay attention to when giving birth?"
"Xiaoqi, you're only five months along, and you're already worrying about having a baby. Don't worry, your mother-in-law has already given birth to three. What else does she not understand?"
When Song Tanglan heard this, she remembered that she was still far from giving birth, and continued with some embarrassment.
"I don't want to find out in advance."
"There's nothing to ask about this. Knowing it in advance would only make you more anxious. Now, just relax, take good care of the baby, and walk around more. Giving birth will be much smoother in the future."
After hearing her question, Aunt Chu used the knowledge she had learned to comfort the pregnant woman who was having her first child.
"Yeah, you have to walk more. You don't know that my neighbor's daughter-in-law is a lazy bitch. She never went out during her pregnancy and finally suffered a lot when she gave birth."
The aunt didn't say anything more after saying this. Her daughter-in-law died of complications during childbirth, and her good sister's daughter-in-law is still pregnant. It is better for her not to know about these things.
Xu's mother had also heard about her daughter-in-law's affairs and sighed helplessly.
"Don't worry about it. This little girl can't stop every day. She strolls around after dinner. If it weren't for the letter, you can ask Sister Ma. She can see her daughter-in-law every time she sits in the yard."
"Yes, Xiao Zhiqing is the most energetic pregnant woman I have ever seen. She doesn't feel tired even walking around every day."
Aunt Ma thought that every time she went to the yard to enjoy the cool air, she would see a pregnant woman walking around with a big belly. She was a little scared every time she saw it. Fortunately, Song Tanglan did not go far, but just walked back and forth at their door.
Song Tanglan felt a little embarrassed when she heard Aunt Ma mention this. She was really too bored at home every day, so she liked to walk around after reading.
There was no way. Ever since she became pregnant, she was not allowed to do housework. Xu Qi would take on all the work when he came back. Usually, her mother-in-law was with her, so she didn't have to do any work.
Her brother-in-law would do the same thing when he came back from get out of class, giving her whatever she wanted, making her feel like a giant baby who needed so many people to take care of her.
Just then, Aunt Ma's daughter-in-law brought out a pot of sticky cake from the kitchen. Her daughter-in-law was a very cheerful northern woman, and her family was very hospitable.
So whenever I make something delicious, I will let them try it.
"Everyone, try the freshly made sticky rice cakes, but this pregnant woman shouldn't eat too much!"
Upon hearing this, Song Tanglan nodded obediently, but when it was her turn, she looked at the small piece and still felt that she was being treated differently. After all, she only had two bites, while the other people could be full with just two pieces.
But facing all the aunts, she felt that as soon as she opened her mouth, these people would definitely not agree.
Fortunately, she didn't really like this kind of sticky pastry, so after eating a piece, she didn't reach out for it again.
After all, the reason she came along was just to join in the fun, and she had never heard the gossip that these aunts occasionally talked about.
They forgot about time while chatting. When Xu Qi came home from get off work, she was confused to see that no one was at home. She looked around the yard but didn't see anyone. She was about to look for someone nearby, but before she even reached the Ma family's yard, she heard some noise coming from inside.
He knew without a doubt that the two ancestors of his family must be here.
Sure enough, when he arrived at the gate of the yard, he felt helpless when he saw the little girl surrounded in the middle.
I walked in and greeted all the sisters-in-law.
"Xiaoqi is off work, your wife is here, take her back and we will continue."
"Yes, yes, you can just go and leave your mother here. We haven't finished talking yet!"
When Song Tanglan heard what the aunts said, she suddenly felt that she was being disliked, but when she looked at Xu Qi again, she had no choice but to follow him home reluctantly.
Xu Qi looked at the little girl and knew what she was thinking without having to guess. He said with a smile, "Do you really like playing with the aunts?"
"Aunt Chu was just halfway through gossiping. Tell me if I want to stay."
Song Tanglan looked at the man who was supporting her and felt a little dissatisfied.
"It's okay, just ask Mom when she comes back."
"Okay, are you done with your work?"
"Yeah, the factory doesn't need me now." Xu Qi supported his wife back home, washed a towel and wiped her hands, the sweat on her face, and her neck.
"Are all the orders finished?"
"I've added a lot of machines, and now I'm done. What do you want to eat tonight? My second sister asked me to bring you a jar of pickles. Would you like some?"
When Song Tanglan heard the word "suan cucumber", her eyes lit up and she nodded subconsciously.
It was indeed the pickled cucumbers made by Aunt Li. The taste was unique, sour and spicy, very appetizing. When she was in the brigade, she would exchange some with Aunt Li every year.
Otherwise, how can we get through this hot summer?
After hearing this, Xu Qi didn't say anything more. He took out the pickled cucumbers, cut them and put them on the plate, and picked up the chopsticks.
Looking at the little girl, she started eating as soon as she got it. Fearing that it was too spicy, she didn't forget to pour her a glass of water and teased her at the same time.
"Now that we have pickles, we can have more food tonight, right?"
When Xu Qi said this, he thought of the little girl who had been acting like a spoiled brat and refusing to eat for the past few days, which was very funny.
During those days, he became extremely anxious as he watched her eat less and less. In the end, he almost went to the brigade in person to exchange food with Aunt Li.
Fortunately, he only told his second sister, and Song Tangcheng immediately understood what he meant. The next day, she brought him a large jar of pickles.
