MTL - Rebirth Married The Control Group Fulang-Chapter 76
After the new year, in the first few days, every household in the village is visiting relatives.
Zhang Fangyuan didn't leave much before, anyway, the two closest relatives were in the village, but Xu He felt that he still had to take care of his relationship with relatives and friends, since they all lived in the village after all.
Now their family looks strong, but there are always ups and downs, and there are always times when people are troublesome.
With him making the decision, Zhang Fangyuan obediently went to his uncle's house to deliver a jar of wine and a box of pastries. As for his sixth uncle in the city, he didn't come here when he had something to do. His mother's family is also from the city, but even when his mother was alive, she rarely contacted her, and now it's even more unnecessary to put a hot face on a cold ass.
Other than that, there were some relatives from the cousin family, and he also gave some things to those who had contacts in the village, and then it was Xu He's mother's family.
On the sixth day of junior high school, the couple went to Xu's house with their belongings.
Xu Shaochun also took Fei Lian back to her natal home, since the two got married, this was the first time that they brought their husbands back home.
"Mother, I brought you two bolts of cloth."
Xu He talked about cloth, but Zhang Fangyuan actually took a lot of things, not only cloth, but also a box of fruit, and a large piece of fresh meat.
Liu Xianglan smiled from ear to ear when she saw the thing, and beckoned the two of them to hurry into the house to warm up the fire: "At noon, I will eat stewed fish with tofu. The big field fish I bought weighs four or five catties. Your father is slaughtering it."
The family hadn't been this lively for a long time, and the Xu family was a little happy.
Xu Shaochun and Fei Lian went to Xu's house first, and when they heard the voice, Xu Shaochun came to look at the door. Seeing Xu He with his belly up and his hands empty, and Zhang Fangyuan holding everything in his arms, he felt a little uncomfortable.
Thinking of coming here first, Fei Lian walked straight ahead empty-handed, not to mention helping with things. It rained at the beginning of the year, and the road was trampled and slippery. He didn't even pull himself, and went all by himself. . He also complained about why he wanted to go back to his mother's house for dinner today, and his feet were muddy and dirty all the way.
Furthermore, seeing Xu He and his wife brought so many things, the two of them just brought a basket of eggs and a jug of small wine, even if they looked at it themselves, it felt a little strange, and I don't know if her mother was suspicious.
"Second sister is here first."
Xu Shaochun nodded, and said in a neutral tone: "Come in, it's cold outside."
"I'll go to the kitchen to see dad first."
Zhang Fangyuan supported Xu He's waist, and the two went to the other side of the kitchen to call Xu Changren.
Xu Shaochun went into the house and couldn't help complaining to Fei Lian: "It's hard to go back to my mother's house. I said to prepare more things so as not to lose face, but your mother insisted on refusing. Look at Xu He's return is fruitless It’s made of cloth again, what do we look like.”
"We are a scholarly family. How can we compare with a merchant who does business? Naturally, those who do business are richer than our family. They also build blue-tiled mansions. They must bring more things back to their mother's house than ordinary people."
Xu Shaochun was even more annoyed: "They built a big house, and the eaves at the back of our house collapsed and it took a long time to repair it. On the contrary, you can still confidently say that someone built a big house."
Fei Lian continued: "In a few days when the school starts, I can find the parents of two students to help repair the house without paying any money. Can the Zhang family do it? Shaochun, I call you more than usual. If you don't want to read some books, it's called short-sightedness."
But Xu Shaochun didn't take this kind of thing anymore, after half a year of training, he was no longer as purely admiring scholars as he was when he was a girl.
This scholar is good, but it has to be applauded by scholars from wealthy families in the city, who are the fairy-like characters in the playbook.
Like a poor scholar in the village, he is probably a master with high eyesight and low hands who pretends to be lofty.
"Stop bluffing me with these things. The merchants in these years are not as dead as the previous two generations suppressed. It seems that their life is more prosperous than anyone else." Xu Shaochun became angry when he said that: "It's just blaming me. If I don’t study, I still have time to study, your mother always told me to do this or that.”
Fei Lian saw that Xu Shaochun's voice was getting louder and louder, and he didn't look like crying at his mother's house, so he quickly comforted him: "I'll just go back and talk to my mother."
Only then did Xu Shaochun stop talking.
Zhang Fangyuan and Xu He met Xu Changren before they came over.
"That fish is really big. The fishpond at Mr. Zou's house didn't release water to catch fish for sale last year, and the fish were all fattened up. If we hadn't been busy with something, it's time for us to buy one."
"There are so many things left at home during the Chinese New Year. How can I still buy fish?"
The two of them entered through the hall door, and they saw Fei Lian in a dark green long cotton robe, sitting at a square table that was placed low against the wall, with a cup of hot tea beside him. Seeing the house with mud-pasted walls gives people the illusion of entering a house in the city for a while.
After working as a scholar for a few months, Fei Lian lost a lot of his bookishness, but he looks like a master.
Zhang Fangyuan and Xu He glanced at each other. It seems that they have learned something after spending a lot of debt with those rich young masters in the city. Students come to beg their master to send Shuxiu, what's the use of putting on airs.
Fei Lian waited for the two to take the initiative to greet them, but he didn't hear a sound for a long time. He quietly raised his eyelids and glanced at the two of them. He saw Xu He with a big belly and Zhang Fangyuan nodding and bowing around the crowd. spinning.
I couldn't tell what it was like, but seeing that the two of them didn't even look at him, and didn't intend to say hello, I felt a little embarrassed and put the teacup back.
"Brother He and Tuzi Zhang are here, is it okay to go along the way?"
The tone of a master asking a student, Zhang Fangyuan raised his head when he heard the sound, feeling very funny, everyone knows the basics, what to pretend.
"It's alright, we drove here, and it didn't slip. I don't know how Fei Xiucai came here?"
Zhang Fangyuan took a look at Fei Lian's shoes, the mud on the soles of which was almost glued to his insteps, Fei Lian unnaturally moved his feet back: "We're okay too."
Xu Shaochun felt that the atmosphere in the room was a bit strange, but he couldn't tell what was wrong, so he went to the kitchen to help his mother light the fire.
It was awkward for Fei Lian to be alone in the room, drinking tea while Zhang Fangyuan told Xu Hewu about them.
Fortunately, it was late, and it was time for lunch. A large bowl of fish was brought to the table, and the steaming dish soon scented the room.
Zhang Fangyuan helped Xu He to sit down, and everyone at the table sat down to eat with their own thoughts. Zhang Fangyuan is too lazy to care what other people think, in short, he just eats the good food when he sees it.
The small spines of grass-fed field fish are thick and not easy to get stuck in the throat. The fish meat has a sweet taste like spring water, which is very suitable for big mouthfuls.
Zhang Fangyuan picked a fish head for Xu He to eat.
"He Ge'er's child is not going to be born in two months, so I'll send it to Fei Xiucai to start enlightenment."
Seeing his mother-in-law mentioning him, Fei Lian half put down his chopsticks: "Yes, if it's a son, it's good to let the child read and read more."
Zhang Fangyuan said: "Let's talk about it, the child is still young, and it is too early to go to school."
"Hey, the earlier children study, the better. Although not every child has the talent for reading, they can also help Zhang Tuzi in business after they can read and write." Fei Lian said and said: "If children Send it here, and I will definitely teach it carefully, and strive to be a child student in the future, and go into an official career, so that you don't have to work hard in farming or business."
Xu He felt a little uncomfortable hearing such words, Zhang Fangyuan took advantage of the time to pick up the vegetables and said, "It is said that Fei Xiucai is very knowledgeable, and he can teach many good students. I think that in the future, children can inherit their father's career and go on the road. In official career, blue comes out of blue and is better than blue."
"By the way, although not every couple can conceive a child, it's better to have a child as soon as possible and teach yourself."
When Fei Lian heard the sound, even Xu Shaochun's expression turned ugly.
Liu Xianglan quickly smoothed things over: "Eat vegetables, eat all vegetables, it will be bad if it gets cold."
Years passed quickly, especially when I was busy, and there was a new round of spring plowing.
This year the Zhang family still decided to open two more plots of land to grow vegetables. They will be used for the tea shed and take care of a few plots of the family. Zhang Fangyuan will not allow He Chun Geng to return to his natal family to help this year. He is heavy and moves slowly. Job, he can't do much anymore.
Seeing that the land is getting greener day by day, and the house is being perfected day by day, Zhang Fangyuan doesn't feel at ease in his heart, on the contrary, he mentions it every day.
Xu He's due date was coming soon, he was afraid that something would happen to someone under his nose, so he hired a midwife early on just in case.
This day he took goods to the tea shed and was going to take a look at the shop in the city. After the new year, he only went there on the day the shop opened, and let the waiters guard him from now on.
This time I went to check the account book, it was time to replenish the stock, and after the arrangement was settled, he would wait at home for the child to be born before going back to run the business.
"Second Aunt, I'm going to the city. Brother He is at home alone. Please go back and watch him for me. There is no business in the tea shed today."
He said: "Success, second sister, go back, I can take care of this end by myself."
Zhang Shiyue nodded: "Then I'll go back right away, just in time to go back and separate and pick the raised vegetable seedlings."
Zhang Fangyuan felt relieved, and got on the horse. He hadn't started yet with the horse's belly in his arms, when he suddenly came from afar along the official road, shouting, "Zhang Tuzi, your husband is about to give birth!"
Surprised, they all ran out of the tea shed and saw a villager driving a cow on the official road.
"I didn't look so good when I came out!"
The villager said: "Brother He drove the ducks to the river, and suddenly felt uncomfortable on the road, and his mother called two people to send them home. Let me send you a message this morning, hurry back have a look!"
Zhang Fangyuan's back was on fire in a hurry, and he flicked the whip on the horse's buttocks to rush back.
It was Mrs. He who hurriedly called to stop him: "It's useless for you to rush home at this moment. Why don't you go and invite Qin Fulang from Zaojiao Village, he is the best midwife in ten miles and eight villages."
It was too late for Zhang Fangyuan to respond, he pulled his horse and rushed away.
"Let's go, let's go back and have a look." Zhang Shiyue and Mrs. He closed the tea shed, and the villager's cart drove back.
There are often people in the village who give birth, which is almost a common occurrence. When other families hear about this, they just think that they have another full moon wine, and only their closest relatives are in chaos.
This year's production risk is also extremely high. It was almost a **** of a time. Zhang Fangyuan was worried about Xu He, so he hurriedly went to Zaojiao Village to invite people, and hurriedly rode his horse back.
The dirt road in the village was trampled by horseshoes, and the villagers who were digging the ground wanted to see the excitement.
When Zhang Fangyuan rushed to the house, there was a lot of people rushing in and out of the house, and many people were gathered in the yard. He raised his foot and was about to rush into the house, but was grabbed by Liu Xianglan: "Men who have children can't go in!"
"I'm just going to have a look at him."
"It's all right, she's giving birth, and all the hot water has been brought in. I've invited the midwife from the village." Liu Xianglan turned her head and saw the midwife in the neighboring village, and hurriedly went to greet her: "It's even more appropriate for Mrs. Qin to come! "
It was the first time for Qin Fulang to ride a horse. Zhang Fangyuan drove the horse so fast that he was covered in cold sweat. Now his legs were still soft, but he could hear the groans of the little brother in the room. He hastily pulled out the handkerchief to wipe After cleaning it, he followed Liu Xianglan in.
Zhang Fangyuan followed for a few steps, but failed to follow in, and was chased out by his second aunt again.
He had never seen any family give birth before, and he felt very confused, thinking that Xu He was suffering in there, and wished he could go to the window to see what was going on inside.
After a while, he saw his fourth aunt coming out with a basin, and he hurried forward to ask.
"It's not that fast to have a baby, don't worry. This baby seems to be a bit strong, so it's not easy to give birth."
"He Ge'er did that when he was healthy, and he didn't eat and drink indiscriminately, how could he raise the child to be strong." Zhang Fangyuan grabbed He's arm: "Then should I do it now?" Go to the city and invite a doctor?"
As soon as the words fell, there was a burst of crying from the baby in the room. Both of them were taken aback for a moment, Zhang Fangyuan realized later, and threw away the handkerchief in his hand: "It's born!?"
