Chapter 94
Chapter 94
In the blink of an eye, it was early autumn. The autumn fierce sun doesn't lose blazing high summer sun. The high temperature was domineering and strong. Simply unbearable.
The cicada on the tree continued to fret about during the countdown of their life.
The sun was full of sunlight outside. The bright light cast mottled shadows on the ground through the window. Inside, there were two identical little dumplings lying on the kang.
Not only did the two little dumplings look alike, but also wore exactly the same clothes. If they weren't familiar with them, they will definitely not be able to tell which was the older brother and which was the younger brother.
At this moment, the two brothers were sleeping soundly with their head to head and their belly bulging Such a cute sight softened one's heart.
Suddenly, a black thing rolled over from one side of the kang to the other like a ball. It was about to hit the two little dumplings.
Right then, a pair of hands reached out and hugged the little black thing. A soft voice spoke, "Younger Sister Yun Yun, that's being naughty!"
Charcoal little Dong Yun gave Da Qiao a toothless smile. She waved her small fists and yelled: "Oh oh oh..."
"Got to be quiet. Younger brothers are sleeping. Don't wake them up!" Da Qiao coaxed her.
Little Dong Yun continued to uttered, "Oh oh oh".
An Ping walked in. Glancing from and to between Da Qiao and little Dong Yun, he finally sighed: "Little Sister is so ugly. She will definitely not be able to marry in the future!"
Da Qiao:""
Although Da Qiao felt that it wasn't good for her elder cousin brother to say this, little Dong Yun was certainly not pretty. Mainly because she looked too much like Eldest Aunt.
She had secretly fed her jade bead water, but for some reason, it had no effect on little Dong Yun. However, her health was superb. She had never been sick once since she was born.
Qiao Dong Ying walked in and took ugly sister into her arm, "If Mom hears what you say, she will jump around again!"
Wan Chun Ju placed too much hope on her little daughter. She couldn't allow others to say that her little daughter wasn't pretty. One time Song Jin Lai's wife remarked in front of her that little Dong Yun was ugly. Afterward...she lost a tooth.
An Ping scratched his head and jollily spoke, "Mom won't hit me. What's more, I'm telling the truth. Little Sister really looks like Mom. Dark and ugly. Dad said it was because Mom always go to the pig sty and roll in pig poop when she was pregnant with little Sister. That's why little Sister got this pig appearance!"
Da Qiao and Qiao Dong Ying: "..."
"Pfft..."
Suddenly there was a crisp laugh outside.
A few people turned to look and found Qin Xiao Mei standing at the door. Her smile was from ear tot ear. Apparently, she heard what An Ping just said.
Da Qiao rushed over in delight: "Godmother!"
Qin Xiao Mei hugged her and landed several kisses on her tender little cheek: "Godmother's little darling, why are getting prettier recently?"
Da Qiao hugged her godmother and kissed back a few times. She sweetly smiled, "Because I'm like Godmother. We're both beauty that get prettier and prettier!"
Qin Xiao Mei couldn't help laughing when she heard it: "Godmother really loves your little mouth. You really know how to talk!"
Despite the loud noise outside, the two little dumplings who were sleeping inside weren't woken up.
Qin Xiao Mei took Da Qiao's hand and walked in. Seeing the two fair and tender dumplings with their heads next to each other like glutinous rice dumplings, she fell in love.
She leaned over to identify them for a while. Finally she could only shake her head and give up: "They look too similar! So which one is the elder brother and which is the younger brother?"
Da Qiao pointed to the little dumpling on the right and softly introduced, "This is second younger brother, Qiao An Jie. This is third younger brother, Qiao An Xu. There is a mole under the left eye of Third Younger Brother. Look."
Saying that, she gently turned Third Younger Brother's little face and revealed the little face on the left. There was indeed a very delicate mole on it.
Qin Xiao Mei reached out and gently touched the mole on the child's face. She sighed, "Oh, a boy with such a mole will make many girls cry for him when he grows up!"
Both Qiao Zhen Jun and Lin Hui were good-looking. The two small dumplings were born with their best features. Their facial features were very delicate.
The average baby was born with a flat nose. However, the two little dumplings got high nose bridge and red mouth. So beautiful that people can't wait to steal them home!
Speaking of which, Qiao Family knew how to raise children. When Qiao An Xu was born, he was as thin and small as a kitten. It had only been a month since and he was raised so plump that one couldn't tell the difference between him and his elder brother.
After watching for a while, Chu Family also arrived.
In two days, Chu Sheng Mei was going to have a wedding banquet in the county. That's why, Chu Family came over early; just in time for the two little dumplings' full month and everyone got together again.
Like Qin Xiao Mei, Dong Xue fell in love with the two small dumplings; wishing they were hers.
Qin Xiao Mei got one son, while she had nothing under her knees. Her only daughter died of illness few years ago. No matter how cute little Wan'er was, she can't see her every day.
When she thought of herself, she couldn't help feeling sad. She felt sorry for her husband.
They have been married for so many years and were without a child. In the past, the in-laws were dissatisfied, but were blocked by her husbands.
Recently, in-law's dissatisfaction had reached its peak. When Mother-in-law came to stay in the county last month, she scolded her red and finally gave an ultimatum. If she couldn't be pregnant this year, she would get Chu Tian Bai to divorce her!
She didn't dare to tell her husband. She could only take the brunt by herself. She was out of idea though.
In the past few years, whenever everyone recommended an useful doctor, they ran over to see them. No matter how bad the herbal drinks were, she drank it without blinking. Still, there was no news from her belly.
Seeing Dong Xue's reaction, Qin Xiao Mei understood in a second. She reached out and patted her hand and coaxed, "Don't think too much. The more you worry about having a child, the more it won't come. Just leave it to fate."
Dong Xue reached out and wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes. She squeezed out a smile at her and said, "Yes. I can only leave to fate. I just want to a baby. Whether it's a boy or a girl, it can do. But why is it that I can't have one?"
Thinking of what her mother-in-law said, Dong Xue couldn't help covering her eyes and sob.
Seeing her like this, Qin Xiao Mei sensed sadness in her heart. Her eyes turned red.
Da Qiao looked at Godmother, then looked at Auntie Xue. She ran over and said, "Auntie Xue, don't cry. You will have a baby soon!"
Dong Xue never thought that she would lose her composure so much. It must have been the excessive pressure during this time.
Today was Qiao Family's good day. Fortunately, no one in Qiao Family minded. If it were another family, they might think she was deliberately trying to add bad luck.
Hearing Da Qiao's words, she was startled: "There will be a baby soon?"
Da Qiao stretched out her fair and tender paws and placed them on her belly. She raised her head and smiled with curved eyes: "En, there will be a baby."
Dong Xue came back to her senses and smilingly patted her head, "Good child. Auntie Xue thank you for your blessing."
Although the child's words were very pleasant, she didn't take them to heart; just thought of them as childish words.
Qin Xiao Mei didn't take it seriously either. Instead, she teased her: "What about Godmother? Will there be a baby?"
Da Qiao's little head nodded: "There will be. Don't cry anymore. It's not good for the baby!"
The two of them couldn't help chucking at the little one's serious look.
With this laugh, the mood had also improved a lot. The atmosphere was no longer depressed.
Dong Xue grinned at Qin Xiao Mei: "No wonder you love this child so much. So sweet!"
Proudness shone on Qin Xiao Mei's face: "Ain't that right. If it wasn't for Qiao Family's unwillingness, I would definitely take her home and raise her!"
...
Today was Qiao Family's twins' full month. Qiao Family didn't invite too many people; only Shen Family, Chu Family, and Lin Hui's maternal family.
Even so, the small yard was crowded and filled with liveliness.
Outside, people kept taking the opportunity to pass by Qiao's small house; wanting to see what delicious food Qiao Family made today.
Qiao Family's life were really getting better and better. Not only did the family have two employees, but they also recognized two relatives from the city. And a future son-in-law who was a colonel. Tsk tsk tsk, simply envious to death!
However, with a big dog like Pi Pi, everyone was destined to see nothing. Once they get close, Pi Pi will stare at them and they will get goosebumps.
Though they can't see the dishes, they could see the newly budded pears from Qiao Family!
That's right. The pear tree in Qiao's courtyard was bearing fruit again!
A fist-sized pear hung on the branches and shone under the sun's golden glow. Those who had tasted it couldn't help drooling.
Qiao Family's pear tree was really amazing. It bear fruit twice a year. Please give them a dozen of such pear trees!
The production team's children had long been eyeing the pears in Qiao's small house. As soon as they saw the pear tree in fruition, they immediately went home and asked their family to bring something to exchange!
Taking advantage of the twins' good day today, the villagers simply took good things and exchanged them. It was considered selling a favor to Qiao Family.
Today's dishes were all cooked by Xue Chuan himself. No matter whether it was meat or vegetable dish, they were extremely fresh. But when a plate of steamed fish was served, there were suddenly two retching sounds from the table.
Everyone was stunned and stared at Dong Xue and Qin Xiao Mei.
What was going on here?
Wasn't this fish delicious?
Wan Chun Ju pouted and commented, "The rich and noble people are different these days. They can't even eat fish meat. Do they want to eat fairy meat?"
In the past, Wan Chun Ju licked Qin Xiao Mei and Dong Xue's boots. But since the two of them refused to accept little Dong Yun as their goddaughter, she hated them both.
Qiao Zhen Guo laughed: "Wife, people don't want to eat it. While you couldn't eat even if you wanted to eat when you were pregnant!"
Wan Chun Ju: "..."
Truly touching a tender spot!
Qiao 'wife-retorter' Zhen Guo continued to add another dig: "And when you were stung all over your face by monema flavescens. That's right, when you laughed and dropped your chin. You couldn't eat any meat. Hahaha, it's too hilarious. Wife, how come only unlucky things happen to you? It can't be that you can't eat again today, right?"
Wan Chun Ju was so angry that she nearly spat out a mouthful of old blood: "..."
Hurry up and close your crow's mouth. No one will think you are mute if you don't open your mouth!
One side, Wan Chun Ju was so mad with her man, the other side Qin Xiao Mei and Dong Xue kept retching.
At first they thought it was just an accident. But once they smelled the fishy smell, they couldn't stop.
Lin Hui eyed them and suddenly said, "You two... it couldn't be that you have it?"
"Impossible!"
Qin Xiao Mei and Dong Xue responded in unison.
It wasn't that they didn't want to be pregnant. The greater the hope, the greater the disappointment. Over the years, they had been disappointed too many times. They didn't want to be disappointed any more.
So they'd rather tell themselves from the start that they ate something bad and had an upset stomach rather than being pregnant.
Da Qiao ran over from the children's table and softly spoke, "It's possible. The babies don't like to eat fish."
Hearing Da Qiao's words, Qin Xiao Mei and Dong Xue were startled again.
Many people believed children's eyes were clearer than adults. Due to that, they can see things that adults can't.
It seem that when some people were pregnant, they will get a child check the gender. Da Qiao had already said earlier. Now she said it again. It can't be that they were really pregnant?
Qiao Xiu Zhi made a decisive decision: "I think you are pregnant. The health clinic isn't far from here. You can go there and let the doctor check. Even if it's not, let the doctor check. You should take the medicine you need. All in all, you'll get reassurance..."
Their men, Shen Shi Kai and Chu Tian Bai, also agreed with this. They hurriedly dragged them both to the clinic.
Da Qiao took the initiative to lead the way.
As a result, everyone was in joy!
Qin Xiao Mei was pregnant. Dong Xue was also pregnant. Both of them were more than a month pregnant!
When Dong Xue heard the doctor's words, she didn't respond for a long time: "Doctor, you, you said I'm pregnant?"
The doctor jollily told: "Yes. It should be less than two months along. Be careful during the first three months of pregnancy. Eat as little cold food as possible. Do not do too strenuous exercise."
Chu Tian Bai was excited. In spite of the presence of so many people, he tightly grasped his wife's hand and exclaimed, "You heard right. The doctor said you are pregnant."
He knew better than anyone what his wife thinks.
Over the years, he had never dared to display the idea of wanting a child in front of his wife; for fear of putting pressure on her and making her sad.
But did he not want children?
Of course he want. That year, when his daughter passed away, he was so sad that he almost couldn't get through it!
Later, there was little Wan'er. He sincerely treated little Wan'er as his own daughter. It was a pity that little Wan'er had her own parents and family. No matter how much they like her, they can't force her to stay.
Now they finally have a child of their own!
Dong Xue turned around and rushed into her husband's embrace. She couldn't help crying: "Tian Bai... We have a baby! We have a baby!"
Chu Tian Bai hugged her like a child, affirming her words: "Well, we have a baby!"
On Qin Xiao Mei and Shen Shi Kai's side, they were also delighted and excited. But compared to the two of them, they can still keep a lid on it.
After all, they had Tian You. Even if they didn't birth another, they won't feel bad. At most they would be a little disappointed.
Qin Xiao Mei turned around and beckoned to Da Qiao: "Quick, come over here to Godmother. Oh, you are really Godmother's little lucky star!"
Before Da Qiao said she had a baby, she didn't believe it. Unexpectedly, she was pregnant!
Dong Xue calmed down after crying for a while. After wiping her tears, she turned around to pull Da Qiao over to hug her and said, "Da Qiao, Auntie Xue thank you!"
Like Qin Xiao Mei, she felt that she was able to conceive because she was blessed by Da Qiao.
After so many years of not being able to conceive, she found out that she was pregnant after Da Qiao said it. Even if it was just a coincidence, this coincidence made her feel grateful!
Chu Tian Bai recalled and remembered during this period of time, they had given up looking for a doctor since last year. So Dong Xue hadn't gone through any diet for more than a year.
To pinpoint when Dong Xue's health began to improve, it probably started after Da Qiao gave them dried rose flowers and jasmine tea.
At that time, they brought the flower tea back. On the first day of brewing it, the two of them slept peacefully.
He often suffered from insomnia due to his busy work and stress. But after drinking tea brewed with roses that day, he slept until dawn and never woke up in the middle!
There was also white hair at such young age. But recently he noticed his white hair was much less. There was new growth of black hair.
As for the wife, there had also been many changes. First of all, her hands and feet were no longer cold all year round. When she got those female thing, she won't roll on the bed in pain. Even the blood turned a lot more red.
Her menstruation had been irregular. They didn't know how many doctors and Chinese medicine practitioners they had seen. They can cure the symptoms but not the root cause. But since drinking the herbal tea, she no longer had period cramp.
All these changes came to mind now. All happened after drinking the flower tea!
Chu Tian Bai looked down at the little dumpling in his wife's arms. His heart was surging, but he didn't show it on his face.
Whether Da Qiao was a real lucky star or not, this matter wasn't suitable for publicity. Otherwise it will only do her harm.
What Chu Family can think of, Shen Family can naturally think of.
Compared with Chu Family, Shen Family benefited more. The whole family's health got better.
It was just that they didn't link it to Da Qiao before. But now they thought about it carefully, they immediately realize that Da Qiao was different.
Just like Chu Tian Bai, they didn't make a sound. They didn't want Da Qiao to suffer any harm because of it.
As for the blessings that Da Qiao brought them, they will repay her and Qiao Family well in the future!
Back at Qiao's house, everyone heard that they were both pregnant. They were happy for them and hurriedly congratulated them.
Only one person in the audience was very unhappy.
That person was none other than Wan Chun Ju.
Because she was hit by her man's crow's mouth. She couldn't eat meat again!
Not only was she unable to eat meat, but she also dislocated her jaw again!
People, who have dislocated their chin once, will be more likely to dislocate again than the average person if they didn't pay attention. The doctor had warned her about this before, but Wan Chun Ju didn't take it to heart.
She ate two pork knuckles in a row. When she was about to eat the third piece, she heard the sound of 'clicking' in her ears Then she let out the sound of slaughtered pigs.
Qiao Zhen Guo turned to look and immediately laughed like a dog: "Hahaha, Wife, your jaw dropped again!"
Wan Chun Ju burst into tears: "... woo woo... hut your mouth..."
If it was fine if she didn't open her mouth. Now she did, saliva flowed down.
Qiao Zhen Guo laughed even more wildly: "Wife, you are like the silly girl from the neighboring production team again. Haha, your saliva is on your clothes!"
Wan Chun Ju almost died of anger: "..."
This full month banquet ended with laughter and Wan Chun Ju's shriek. Quite a lively scene.
...
When Shen Shi Kai and Qin Xiao Mei returned to Shen's house, Shen Family's two elders was shocked and happy when they found out that their daughter-in-law was pregnant.
Old Madam Shen was so delighted that her eyes were red: "It's really a blessing from the Bodhisattva. Whether it's a boy or a girl in this belly, we all like it!"
Shen Family already had Shen Tian You. So whether this child is a boy or a girl, the two elders didn't have any demand.
Qin Xiao Mei rubbed her belly and smiled: "It's not the blessing of Bodhisattva. It's the blessing that Da Qiao brought to us!"
With that, she told everyone what happened at Qiao's house today.
After speaking, she stated: "I know you will say that I am superstitious, but I just think that all this was brought to me by Da Qiao!"
Old Madam Shen responded, "Now that you said, it's true. Since you recognized the child as a goddaughter, my waist and legs don't hurt anymore. Especially every time she comes over, I can eat half bowl more!"
She didn't consider it in that aspect before. She just thought that Da Qiao was so well-behaved and sensible and taken a liking to her. And due to good mood, her appetite improved.
When old Madam Shen was younger, she was someone who would worship God and burn incense. But it was only after it was forbidden, she stopped. So, everyone wasn't surprised when she said that.
Th unusual one was old Mister Shen.
Old Mister Shen didn't believe in ghosts and gods. His character was old-fashioned and stubborn. Unexpectedly, after hearing his daughter-in-law's words, he nodded and said, "Da Qiao is very good. She looks like a lucky child!"
Everyone looked at him like he was a ghost.
Old Mister Shen was a little annoyed by the reaction and coughed: "I'm not wrong. Da Qiao's child is certainly wonderful. You guys are too stupid. I found out long ago. The herbal tea she gave to us Shen Family can't be bought by money!"
Just like Chu Tian Bai, on the first day he received the flower tea, old Mister Shen slept until dawn.
One must know, this kind of thing hadn't happened in decades. Especially when he was getting older. It was pretty amazing if he can sleep four or five hours a day.
Later, every time Da Qiao came over, his body would be full of strength. All kinds of ailments on his body would gradually heal.
According to the past, he had to go to the hospital four or five times a year. But since his daughter-in-law recognized Da Qiao as goddaughter, he hadn't been to the hospital for a long time.
He took this all in, but never wanted to say it.
Destruction pursues the great. The child was still young, so keeping a low profile was the best protection for her.
Old Madam Shen complained to him: "Since you know, why you didn't say it before. Oh, it can't do. I have to go to the room to find some good things and gift it to that child!"
Old Madam Shen got a lot of good things in her hands. It seems that she agreed with Da Qiao being a blessing.
In fact, it was more than agreeing. If they hadn't already recognized her as goddaughter, she even wanted her grandson to childhood engagement with her. What a pity!
The same scene also happened in Chu's house.
Have to say, Dong Xue's pregnancy came at the right time. Her mother-in-law originally wanted to her son to divorce her daughter-in-law after her daughter's banquet. Unexpectedly, she became pregnant.
Now that she was pregnant, there was definitely no need for a divorce.
Chu Tian Bai didn't know his mom had this idea before. He was very angry when he found out. At the same time, he felt more and more distressed for his wife.
Originally, he planned to bring his parents to live in the county. But after knowing this, he immediately dismissed the idea.
The days were quiet for a few days. Soon, it was disrupted again.
Wang Yan Sheng's dad and Qiao Hong Mei died on the same day!
