The happy little days of the Ye family

The Chinese New Year is only 9 days away. Ye Donglin, the little boss, helped Ye Qingqing pack up the New Year's goods for his family early and bring them over.

Now all that's left to do at home is giving New Year's gifts.

Early in the morning, Ye Qingqing took Tang Xiaojing with him to give New Year's gifts to relatives and friends in the village.

Tang Xiaojing was carrying a large basket behind his back, which contained various New Year gifts for the village chief. He carefully supported Ye Qingqing, who was already 6 months pregnant, with his hands.

The village chief is the most respected person in the village. When the young couple came to the village chief's house, several families in the village came to give New Year gifts to the village chief. The village chief's wife and Yang Xinghua were very busy.

Seeing that the village chief was busy at home, the two people put down their New Year's gifts and hurried back.

The Tang family sends New Year's gifts to the village chief every year, and Yang Xinghua has prepared the Tang family's New Year's gifts early.

Yang Xinghua put down the New Year's gift from Tang Xiaojing, and then put the New Year's gift she prepared for the Tang family into her backpack.

Tang Xiaojing took the basket and found a fresh leg of lamb inside, and then Yang Xinghua stuffed him with an old hen.

The two came back from the village chief's house, took two New Year's gifts and went out again, planning to go to the homes of Dr. Li and Wang Wenpo to give New Year's gifts.

The young couple went to Doctor Li's house first.

Doctor Li was collecting medicinal materials in the yard. When he saw Ye Qingqing coming over, he thought she was uncomfortable, so he stood up anxiously and asked:

"What's wrong with you?"

After saying that, he took Ye Qingqing's hand and felt her pulse.

As soon as Ye Qingqing opened her mouth, Tang Xiaojing beside him said quickly: "Doctor Li, Qingqing is not feeling uncomfortable. We are here to give you a New Year gift."

Doctor Li rolled his eyes at Tang Xiaojing angrily, "Then if you didn't tell me earlier, you would have made me worry in vain."

Although Ye Qingqing didn't feel uncomfortable, Doctor Li still took her pulse seriously.

Doctor Li nodded with satisfaction when he saw Ye Qingqing's ruddy complexion and full of energy.

"Qingqing is in good health and the baby is healthy, but Qingqing has a small pelvic bone and needs to move around more. This will be beneficial to future births."

"Okay, thank you Doctor Li for the tip." Ye Qingqing nodded obediently, planning to walk two more laps in the morning.

Hearing the movement in the yard, Dr. Li's wife came out with a smile.

Tang Xiaojing quickly took off the backpack behind him and handed the New Year's gift to Dr. Li's wife.

"Hey, why are you here as a New Year gift?" Doctor Li's wife saw that there were chickens, rabbits, and a duck in the basket Xiao Jing brought, so she didn't dare to accept it.

"During this period, I often come here to nag Dr. Li. This is a little thought from our family. Don't dislike it, Auntie."

Doctor Li's wife looked at Doctor Li again, and when she saw Doctor Li nodded, she accepted the New Year's gift.

Doctor Li's family did not expect that Tang Xiaojing would come to give New Year's gifts. When preparing New Year's gifts this year, they did not prepare any for their family.

Fortunately, Dr. Li's wife raised a lot of chickens in the backyard, so she simply caught two old hens as a New Year gift.

"Qingqing, you can eat one person and two people to replenish your health now. You can take these two old hens back to replenish your health."

The two of them were not in a hurry to go back. Tang Xiaojing took the doctor again and asked many things that Ye Qingqing needed to pay attention to at this stage.

Dr. Li is a good and conscientious doctor, and he chatted with the two novice parents for half an hour.

After leaving Li's house, the two went to Wang Wenpo's house next door.

When Wang Wenpo saw the two of them coming to give New Year's gifts, she felt a little strange at first, but then she realized that Ye Qingqing was six months pregnant and would give birth before the summer harvest, so she understood why he was giving her New Year's gifts.

Although Wang Wenpo is not a doctor, she has been a Wenpo in the village for 26 years, and she has delivered most of the children in the village.

Wang Wenpo specially taught the young couple some experiences that ordinary people don't know.

In fact, Wang Wenpo also just returned from giving New Year gifts to relatives in the village, and also received some New Year gifts from relatives and friends.

Wang Wenpo took some things directly from the New Year gifts given by others and gave them to the Tang family in return.

It's probably because Ye Qingqing is pregnant. Later, Grandma Ye's family, Tang Yilin's family and Tang Erlin's family all had old hens in their annual gifts.

The two delivered New Year's gifts to six families in one morning, and then took back eight plump hens and a bunch of other dry goods.

After lunch, Tang Xiaojing took out the oxcart and prepared to go to the county to deliver New Year gifts to Shopkeepers Liang and Wang.

Wang Yueya was in the town and happened to pass by the Li family's house on his way to the county. Tang Xiaojing took the New Year's gift to Wang Yueya by the way.

When Tang Xiaojing came to the Li family's small house, he happened to run into a man from Chenjia Cloth Store, who sent several carts of fabrics to the Li family.

I learned from Wang Yueya and Li Yan that the Li family's small shop had been taken back and that Li Yan had opened a small cloth shop on the street of the market half a month ago.

The small embroidered pictures and handkerchiefs that Wang Yueya has made in recent months are also sold in his own cloth shop.

At the end of the year, Lijia Cloth Shop's business was pretty good, and Wang Yueya's embroidery items were also selling well.

After leaving Li's house, Tang Xiaojing hurried to the county.

When I went to the Liang Family Restaurant, I happened to meet Ye Xilin who came to deliver winter bamboo shoots.

Seeing that Ye Xilin had nothing else to do later, Tang Xiaojing took him to Wang's Pharmacy.

This boy is also engaged. As a good and intimate brother-in-law, Tang Xiaojing plans to take him to shopkeeper Wang to pick out two albums.

Ye Xilin was still resisting at first, feeling that he didn't need it. Later, when he looked through the picture album given by Shopkeeper Wang, his eyes widened and his face turned as red as a monkey's butt.

Shopkeeper Wang gave them books for newlyweds to read. They were full of pictures and texts, much better than those of Ye's father. Ye Xilin blushed and bought the book.

They were all old acquaintances, so Shopkeeper Wang gave him a 6% discount and also gave him an extra picture book that had been the best seller recently.

Shopkeeper Wang received the New Year's gift and took Tang Xiaojing and Ye Xilin to Zuixianju for dinner. When they returned to the village, it was already dark.

At home, Tangshan and Ye Qingqing had already had dinner and were in the hall packing up the recently tanned leather.

他们家现在有56张的兔皮，其中52张是灰色的，4张是白色的。另外还有6张野山羊的皮子和4张獐子皮。

Seeing that Tang Xiaojing was back, Ye Qingqing happily talked about the uses of these leathers.

"With these rabbit skins, I plan to make two rabbit skin coats for men. They will use white rabbit skin for the collar and gray rabbit skin for the bottom. It will definitely look good."

"Six sheepskins are a bit small. I think I can make a sheepskin coat for women."

"As for the remaining four deer skins, I plan to save them first and make them into leather clothes when I have more skins later."

Tangshan looked at Ye Qingqing cheerfully, "We don't know anything about making leather clothes, so we'll just follow what you said, Qingqing."

Tang Xiaojing nodded, "Madam, you are so awesome. I think it is better to sell the pair of wild geese at home later. When the leather jacket is ready, I will take it to Xiaohe Town together."

"Xiaohe Town is too far away. If we only sell a pair of wild geese, it would be a waste of time. It would be better to go there after we have accumulated more things." Ye Qingqing also felt sorry for Tang Xiaojing who had to travel for a day.
