MTL - Villain’s Delicate and Charming Wife-Chapter 31
Jiang Yao thought hard for a moment, her aunt has been late for almost ten days, and she has been busy with tomato shipments and the market recently, she forgot all about it.
If she and Lu Che are healthy, according to the frequency of his "sowing/seeding", she has a very high chance of being pregnant.
Lu Qing had been in a daze after seeing her recover, and asked again, "Yaoyao, are you really pregnant?"
"May... Maybe." Jiang Yao did not dare to give a definite answer: "But this month's menstrual period did not come."
"That must be it!" Lu Qing took her hand excitedly and said, "I was exactly like you when I was pregnant with Yang Xinxin, and I couldn't smell the fishy smell."
?" Lu Qing said, "It's alright to go check it out, be at ease, I'll go to the field and call Lu Che back now."
"No need, sister." Jiang Yao held Lu Qing back and said, "Don't be in a hurry, tell him when he comes back from work, and it's not too late to check tomorrow."
"It's okay." Lu Qing said, "Don't stay in the kitchen, go to the room to lie down for a while when you're tired, do handicrafts when you're not tired, and I'll cook the meals."
"Okay, thank you sister." Jiang Yao's stomach was really uncomfortable and she didn't insist.
Lu Qing smiled and said, "What's there to thank you for? It's me who thank you for spreading the branches and leaves for our Lu family."
"..." These days, married women are indeed shouldering the heavy responsibility of "spreading branches and leaves" of their husband's family. Jiang Yao suddenly felt that the heavy responsibility on her shoulders increased.
Leaving the kitchen, away from the fishy smell, the nausea gradually disappeared, Jiang Yao did not want to lie down, so she started to do handicrafts.
At noon, as soon as Lu Che came back, dinner would be served at home.
Lu Qing's cooking has made a qualitative leap under the guidance of Jiang Yao. This meat bun with bone and pork liver porridge tastes very good. You can see that the two little guys didn't complain. .
The processed ingredients will not make Jiang Yao nauseated, but she has a normal appetite. After drinking half a bowl of porridge and half a meat bun, she can't eat it anymore. She took the remaining half of the meat bun. Put it into Lu Che's hand, "Help me eat it."
"Why don't you eat it? Does it taste bad?" Lu Che asked inexplicably.
Jiang Yao: "No, I'm full."
"How can you be full at this point, Xinxin eats more than you..." Lu Che wanted to ask more, but Jiang Yao interrupted him, "I'm sleepy, go back to sleep first." Not sure yet, she didn't dare to say it in front of everyone, especially the old lady, for fear of making her old man happy.
Until Jiang Yao got up and went back to the room, Lu Che was still confused, Lu Qing looked at this silly brother and felt amused, and said, "Yao Yao was at home all morning, I missed you, you hurry up go with her."
He finished lunch and went back to his room.
When the door was opened, Jiang Yao was lying on her side on the big bed. Lu Che looked at his daughter-in-law's slender back, and suddenly became a little confused. He walked over, lay down and hugged her from behind, whispering, "Daughter-in-law, miss me, don't you?"
Jiang Yao was fascinated because he was thinking about getting pregnant. He didn't notice when he came in. When he came back to his senses, his hand was restless.
She hurriedly stopped, "What are you thinking about during the day?"
"I miss you!" Lu Che's words caught on, "Come here once before going to work, it should be fine."
"You're fine, I have a problem." Jiang Yao patted his hand, but he didn't give up, she had to say: "You really don't make trouble, I may be pregnant."
"Pregnant?" Lu Che's eyes widened, then he bounced off the bed, put his head in front of Jiang Yao's face, and asked uncertainly, "Daughter-in-law, are you really pregnant? ?"
"I'm not sure yet, but my menstrual period has been delayed by ten days. In the morning, I smell the fishy smell and want to vomit, and people have no appetite. "
Lu Che's expression became more complicated with Jiang Yao's words, she asked, "What? Are you unhappy?"
"No." Lu Che denied immediately, "It's just too sudden, is it so easy to get pregnant?"
"It's not easy." Jiang Yao said quietly: "After all, your 'seeding' is very frequent."
“…”
Lu Che quickly accepted the news that he was going to be a father, then frowned and grinned happily, like a little fool.
He lay back on the big bed, put his hand on Jiang Yao's belly, and said with anticipation, "If only the doll was a girl."
Jiang Yao was a little surprised, and asked, "Why? Don't you want to be a son? You old Lu family came to you as a man. You don't want to have a son and spread the branches and leaves?"
It's not that she prefers sons to women, but that the trend of thinking is like this in this era. She can't ask Lu Che to think that boys and girls are the same in future generations.
, "Besides, we don't just have one son. In the future, if we have another son, we can do business with the milk side."
A co-authored daughter is for petting, and a boy is for business? Jiang Yao really admires Big Brother Lu's thinking. Of course, she also grasped another key point and asked, "How many are you planning to have?"
Jiang Yao: "..." Who can rest assured? How much to give birth to, is she a sow?
The country has been implementing family planning since 1971, and now it is about 73 years. However, this policy is not promoted very much at present.
In the past ten years, at the rate of holding two in three years, she could not give birth to six, just thinking about it, her scalp was numb. It seems that the ideological transformation of Big Brother Lu is a long way to go.
The next day, Lu Che took half a day off and took Jiang Yao to the county hospital for an examination early in the morning.
In recent years, the examination is very simple, a urine test is done, and the examination results show that Jiang Yao is undoubtedly pregnant.
The moment they heard the result, the young couple still showed a happy smile.
In the 1970s, the infertility rate was not high, and the doctor was not surprised by this, and only explained a few routinely, "Now the month is still young, usually pay attention to the combination of work and rest. Try not to do it as much as possible, men can do it for help."
Lu Che nodded and agreed immediately, "Doctor, don't worry, my daughter-in-law usually doesn't have to do heavy work, but now that she is pregnant, she doesn't even need to do light work."
The doctor said it casually. After all, these days, rural women can't get enough to eat. If they don't work, they just don't want to live. Even if you are pregnant, you still have to do whatever you want. Lu Che's answer obviously surprised her. She was stunned for a moment and then said, "The first three months of pregnancy are still unstable. Married life is forbidden. Men should do more heavy work to consume energy."
"..." Lu Che's face suddenly cracked.
After exiting the gate of the county hospital, Lu Che pulled Jiang Yao and asked in a low voice, "Daughter-in-law, is what the doctor said just now true?"
He didn't say anything, but Jiang Yao didn't know what he was referring to, and immediately said: "Of course, you have to bear with me, if something goes wrong..."
"Bah ah ah... You quickly spit and said, what's wrong is not wrong, there will never be a mistake."
Jiang Yao was ruthlessly interrupted by Lu Che before she could finish her words.
"..." It is said that the bigger the business, the more superstitious people are. Big Brother Lu really has the potential to be a big boss.
It's too early, Lu Che wants to buy some meat to nourish Jiang Yao's body.
"TA is probably just a small bean sprout now, so don't worry about replenishing your body." Jiang Yao said.
Although she is deficient in material things, as Lu Che's income is getting higher and higher, her standard of living is also rising.
"Okay." Jiang Yao has been here for so long and has never seen the underground market, so it's better to take advantage of today's opportunity to see it.
The alley over the underground market is very narrow, and it is inconvenient to ride a bicycle. Anyway, it is not far from the county hospital, so Lu Che walked with Jiang Yao.
After walking for about ten minutes, they entered the alley.
This place is really "underground". Compared with the fair and solemn fairs held once every half a month, this place is so cold that it cannot be seen that it is a market. There are some people standing here and there in the alley, and occasionally someone walks up to you and whispers if you want to buy something.
Lu Che probably visited a lot recently. He turned to a relatively hidden alley and knocked on the door of a room.
Soon, someone came out to open the door.
I was very vigilant at first, but when I saw it was Lu Che, his face softened, but he still pointed at Jiang Yao and asked, "Who is this?"
Lu Che: "My wife."
"Come in then."
After entering the house, crossing the patio, entering the main room and turning to the innermost room, Jiang Yao saw this store.
This is really a small supply and marketing cooperative. It basically has some of the supply and marketing cooperatives, and even some of the supply and marketing cooperatives do not have it.
"What should I order today?" asked the underground boss.
Lu Che: "Give me half a catty of meat, is there any malted milk essence?"
"No problem." The boss below cut half a catty of meat happily, then took out a can of malted milk from the wooden box and asked: "Is one can enough? of."
"Two cans." Lu Che said cheerfully.
"OK."
One-hand delivery and one-hand payment, the transaction was completed quickly, just when Lu Che wanted to take Jiang Yao away, the underground boss stopped him, "I almost forgot to ask you, last time you Do you still have the cloth that I gave you?"
The cloth provided by Lu Che? Jiang Yao was stunned, but her face remained calm, and then she heard Lu Che ask, "How much do you want?"
Underground boss: "As much as you want, there are many people looking for the goods now, so I sold them to three people. Recently, at least ten people came to ask me."
Lu Che: "It should be available in a few days, I'll bring it to you."
After finishing speaking, Lu Che pulled Jiang Yao away.
Keep walking out of the alley and into the street, Jiang Yaocai asked: "What did the man mean by the cloth just now?"
"Do you remember the big bag that was tied to the front of my car when we shipped sewing machines from the provincial capital last time?" Lu Che asked.
"Remember." Jiang Yao suddenly realized, "Is that cloth?"
"That's right."
Actually, when Lu Che went to the provincial underground market to buy vegetables the day before, he saw those cloths, and the quality was much better than those sold at the county supply and marketing cooperative.
He adhered to the principle of "come after a long time", and went to buy a few big pieces early the next morning. He had no experience in the underground market, so he handed over the cloth to the underground boss, earning a good price difference.
He thought it was a one-time deal, but the underground boss wanted it.
"You told the boss just now that it should be available for a few days, where are you going to find goods for others?" Jiang Yao realized what he wanted to do as soon as he asked, "You... want to save money City... get the goods?"
"Well, last time was a small test knife, this time I will take more." Lu Che was afraid of her worry, so he comforted: "I can go back and forth on a bicycle in a day, and directly supply the goods. , you don't have to sell a little by yourself, it's very safe."
"I know." Jiang Yao said, "I'm just afraid that you will work too hard. It will take 12 to 3 hours to go back and forth in a day."
"What's the fear of hard work, as long as I think of you and the children, I don't feel hard at all."
Looking at Lu Che's happy wife and children, Jiang Yao just let him go.
When I got home at noon, Lu Che told the good news of Jiang Yao's pregnancy to the old lady Lu. The old lady laughed from ear to ear, took Jiang Yao's hand and kept saying: "Yao Yao, You are really a great hero of our family, the next work in the family will be handed over to Lu Che, you don't have to do anything."
"Grandma, I'm just pregnant, but it's not that I can't move, so I don't have to do heavy work, but I can do some work within my ability, otherwise it's too boring." Jiang Yao said with a smile.
"Yaoyao, you're right." Lu Qing said, "Don't listen to milk, and move around more often, so that it will be easier to give birth when giving birth."
Although Jiang Yao has repeatedly emphasized that she should exercise more, Lu Che now regards her as a fragile glass doll. As long as he is at home, he will protect her three hundred and sixty degrees. She walked, and he wanted to carry her.
It's November now, even in the south, the atmosphere of autumn is already very strong, and the temperature drops immediately as soon as it gets dark at night.
It turned out that two buckets of water were enough for Jiang Yao to take a bath. Lu Che was afraid that she would be cold, so he bought three buckets for her. wash.
Jiang Yao couldn't accept it, so of course she refused, "I don't care if you help me wash, I'm afraid you can't stand it, don't forget what the doctor said today."
"..." After hearing this, Lu Che could only open the door and go out, "I'm right outside the door, you can call me if you have something."
Although it is possible to go back and forth to the provincial capital in one day, it is easy to attract attention by taking a day off rashly, so Lu Che waited until the day off before leaving.
In order to be back before dark, he will leave at four in the morning.
Jiang Yao was worried that he would use a few sweet potatoes to deal with it along the way. Last night, he made a pot of sweet potato buns. When he got up in the morning, she told him to cook a few sweet potato buns. Bring the eggs with you.
Although she believed that with Mr. Lu's strength, ordinary people couldn't hurt him, but this was his first time traveling, so she was inevitably a little worried.
In order to divert her attention, Jiang Yao could not wait at home, and went to the paper factory with Lu Qing to collect raw materials after breakfast.
Since Jiang Yao became Qingyuan's daughter-in-law, she is no longer a high-ranking educated youth in the provincial capital in the eyes of her mother. Now, when queuing up, some people like to chat with her.
"Jiang Yao, I saw your family Lu Che riding a bicycle early in the morning. Where did you go?" A woman asked.
Lu Qing also knew what his younger brother was going out for this time. Hearing this, his heart was also suspended.
Since Lu Che became the free tractor repairman of the production team, the villagers in Qingyuan have eased their attitude towards their Lu family a lot. She worries that if this matter is discovered, they will have to wait again. Back to "before liberation", she quietly went to see Jiang Yao.
Jiang Yao gave her a reassuring look, then raised her hand to cover her belly, bowed her head, and shyly said, "Actually, it's also me being self-willed... I just got pregnant, I don't have any appetite, I slept until When I woke up in the middle of the night, I really wanted to eat steamed buns and dim sum from a state-run restaurant near my mother's house. Lu Che felt bad for me, got up without saying a word, and bought it for me by bike. "
"Bike to the provincial capital to buy snacks?" Jiang Yao's voice was not low, and the women around her heard it, staring at Jiang Yao in stunned eyes.
Jiang Yao continued to pretend, "Oh, aunties, don't look at me like that, I'm embarrassed."
"No..." The first woman to react said: "Jiang Yao, what should I say? It's just a steamed bun, you can't make it yourself, grit your teeth and let Lu Che go to the county seat If you can’t buy it at a restaurant, it tastes the same.”
"Is it a lot worse?" Jiang Yao changed the image of the educated youth in the provincial capital in a second, and said, "The barbecue pork buns in the provincial capital have sauce, and the dry ones in the county town are not delicious at all. ."
"...Even if it tastes bad, you shouldn't let Lu Che go to the provincial capital to buy it for you. Although there are bicycles, how long does it take to go back and forth?" Indicates incomprehension.
"I should be back before dark. In fact, he has to bring the quilt from my house. I didn't bring it when I cut the line. Now it's cold, so let him bring it here." Jiang Yao was worried that Lu Che would be found tonight with a large bag, and made up an excuse in advance.
"Forget it, one is willing to fight and the other is willing to suffer, what are you worrying about?" Aunt Tian interjected, "According to me, Jiang Yao is really lucky, she was pregnant when she got married. already."
The big event of pregnancy was brought up, and the topic was immediately diverted.
"It's pretty powerful, but it's normal. Don't look at Jiang Yao's thin waist, big breasts, butts, and warped hips, it looks like a good child."
"That's right, that's right, the body is there, Lu Che must have worked hard at night..."
Speaking, the women let out a malicious laugh.
Jiang Yao: "..." Let's not change the subject.
After receiving the materials and returning home, Lu Qing said, "Yaoyao, why did you announce your pregnancy so early? It will take three months to tell."
Three months, Jiang Yao had heard it before, she said, "Sister, it's alright, now everyone knows, Lu Che won't be too eye-catching when he goes out on a bicycle, everyone thinks What kind of tricks did I use to torture him again?"
Lu Qing was amused by her, "This is really embarrassing for you."
"It's not difficult, Lu Che will be fine."
Going home to do a day's work, Jiang Yao stayed up until 5 pm, and finally waited until Lu Che returned home.
Jiang Yao saw that something was tied to the back seat of his car, and asked, "Why is there only so much, can't I get the goods?"
"No." Lu Che motioned her to go back to the room while unfastening the things in the back seat.
Jiang Yao immediately understood what he meant. First, he was afraid that the partition would have ears, and second, he was afraid of being known by the old lady.
Recently, the living standard of the family has skyrocketed. The old lady always thought that Lu Che was using the money sent by Lu Yuan to improve the food, but she did not know that he was secretly doing various side jobs.
When he returned to the room, Lu Che opened the bag and found a piece of army green cloth, which was the most popular color in this era. In addition to the cloth, there is also a small bag of cotton. He said, "You keep these to make your own clothes. I wanted to buy more cotton, but unfortunately they are out of stock. As for the goods I got today, I have already sent them directly to the alley. If you take it back, you will definitely be suspected."
"You are so smart." Jiang Yao told him what happened in the paper factory this morning, "You have to be more careful when you go out in the future, but I have set myself up as a stubborn and willful person. It’s deeply rooted in people’s hearts, and this trick can be used a few times.”
"Okay." Lu Che agreed, then took out a stack of money from his trouser pocket and handed it to Jiang Yao, "The money for the goods and the money are here, you count. "
This pile of money is obviously much thicker than when I went out today, Jiang Yao smiled and asked, "How much did you earn this time?"
Lu Che: "One foot earns about eighty cents. I took more than twenty feet, about sixteen dollars."
"Sixteen yuan!! That's amazing!" Jiang Yao hugged Lu Che excitedly.
I haven't hugged my daughter-in-law for a day, so Lu Che hugged her waist and kissed her lips.
This kiss is out of control, especially Lu Che who has been "cultivating his mind" for a few days.
When Zhou Yang called them outside to eat, he let go of Jiang Yao and said in a hoarse voice, "You go to eat first, I'll take a shower."
Jiang Yao: “…”
Lu Che took a long shower and still hasn't come out. Mrs. Lu couldn't help thinking, "Is there any **** on this guy? He didn't finish washing it for a long time." After speaking, she said to Jiang again Yao said, "Yaoyao, you should prepare his meals separately. On this day, the food gets cold quickly."
Jiang Yao didn't dare to say the reason why someone took a shower for so long, so she responded obediently, and took Lu Che's meal back to her room when she finished eating.
At three o'clock in the afternoon, the neighbor brought back a big fish from nowhere, and said that he could give half of it to Jiang Yao, and Jiang Yao bought half of it from her with a dime. So, tonight's meal was pretty good, but Lu Che lost his appetite for this bowl of rice.
"What's wrong with you? You haven't eaten for a day?" Jiang Yao asked in confusion.
"Daughter-in-law." Lu Che suddenly sighed and said, "I want to take back what I said before."
"...You have said so many words before, which sentence are you referring to?" Jiang Yao was really confused by him.
Lu Che: "It's just the sentence that you have as many babies as you have."
"Why... Now I feel that raising children is too stressful, and I don't want to have so many children?" Without doing ideological work, Mr. Lu automatically thought, and Jiang Yao was secretly delighted, but what was the reason for him? The attitude has changed 180 degrees in a day, and she is still very curious.
"No, you and the children are the driving force for me to make money, I don't think it's pressure." Lu Che said, looking at her faintly, "It's just that this 'monk' life is too sad , It's only been a few days, and I feel like I can't take it any longer. Daughter-in-law, you must understand me, this kind of extreme happiness is indispensable. "
Jiang Yao listened, resisted laughing, patted Lu Che on the shoulder, and said, "Actually, making money is also a kind of ultimate happiness, you keep working hard."
“…”
The author has something to say:
Boss Lu: You can have less children, but you can't have less extreme happiness...
