Seventy-year-old book: The villain Zaizai’s best mother

Their family never cooks two kinds of food, they all cook the same thing, and anyone can eat whatever they like.

Erhe noodle steamed buns, boiled sweet potatoes, and stewed cabbage and radish, although they are all home-cooked dishes, they are already meals that other members only eat during the holidays.

In order to entertain the third aunt, Miaomiao quickly fried another leek and egg.

Xia Mingshuang brought a handful of leeks back from the supply and marketing cooperative. The fat aunt left them for her to give to the children to try.

The eggs were bought secretly from Zhao Juying and Guixiang's house.

Third Sister Gu felt relaxed after leaving home. She was familiar with Xia Ming, and she was even closer to the children. "Have you continued planting garlic?"

The whole family just looked at the two strong men.

Little Zaizi: "Hey."

In the past, Xia Mingshuang had grown mung bean sprouts, soybean sprouts, and garlic in order to improve the children's food.

The first two were successful, but the garlic yellow failed. It's not that Xia Mingshuang's skills are not good, it's that the environment is not good. If you want to make garlic yellow successfully, you need to keep it out of the light, and then the garlic sprouts that come out will be bright yellow and not turn green.

This house was originally designed by Gu Yunshan. A cellar was dug under the kang in the east room specifically for storing fresh sweet potatoes.

However, in order to preserve sweet potatoes to the maximum extent, the cellar must not be ventilated, because if the ventilation is too strong, it will not be kept fresh. However, garlic requires a ventilated environment, so it cannot be put down. Xia Mingshuang was placed in a basket without a handle and covered with a straw curtain and cloth.

She also specifically told the little Zaizai not to open it all the time to avoid being shy, but the little Zaizai was a good boy and would only squat there and ask questions in a low voice, never making a move. But there was still Erzhuang, that skinny boy who couldn't stand it. He was impatient, and when Xia Mingshuang wasn't paying attention, he would check on it every now and then. The yellow garlic would turn into garlic sprouts, which would naturally stop growing and grow taller, so it would be useless.

Third Sister Gu laughed when she knew it, "This child has never been so naughty and restless before."

Miaomiao smiled and said: "He didn't dare to do it before, but now if my mother doesn't hit him, he will just float away."

As soon as these words came out, everyone except Xia Mingshuang was startled, and they all thought of Xia Mingshuang's previous appearance. In the past, she often beat and scolded her children. Erzhuang was a sweet-tongued child. He was the best at coaxing people and looking at his expressions. Naturally, he refused to get beaten in front of her.

They all felt that compared to the past, Xia Mingshuang seemed like a different person now.

Third Sister Gu was very emotional. It is said that a prodigal son can never change his fortune, but Xia Ming is able to realize that change is really a blessing.

She didn't suspect that Xia Mingshuang had any ulterior secrets. She felt that people would change. Let's just talk about Zhan Jiayi. He really seemed to be a different person now than before.

Miao Miao felt a little regretful after saying this. She was afraid that Xia Mingshuang would be embarrassed, so she quickly smiled and said, "My mother is fine now!"

Er Zhuang and Xiao Zaizai quickly echoed loudly, and Er Zhuang asked Da Zhuang, "Brother, is that right?"

Da Zhuang nodded, "Yes."

Who doesn’t love a rainbow fart? Xia Mingshuang was also very happy, "Eat the scrambled eggs first. They won't taste good when they get cold."

While they were eating, Gu Yanni came over. When she saw Third Sister Gu, she said unhappily: "Third brother, why don't you tell your parents that you're here?"

Without waiting for Third Sister Gu to speak, Xia Mingshuang said, "It's the same thing if we go after dinner."

Gu Yanni snorted. The more Xia Mingshuang got better than before, the more uncomfortable she felt and wanted to put on airs. She asked again: "Lao San, what did you bring to your mother this time?" She turned around and looked, but when she didn't see anything, she sarcastically said: "Aren't all my brothers and sisters left behind?"

Xia Mingshuang motioned to Third Sister Gu to just eat. She said, "I asked Third Sister to come and stay for a few days. I only brought a change of clothes."

Of course, Gu Yanni's focus was not on this. She wanted to get close to Xia Mingshuang... but she held her neck in a condescending manner, looking like she was looking for trouble instead of building a good relationship.

When a second aunt gives money to her mother-in-law, she will pay as much as she wants.

Xia Mingshuang ignored her. She had to ride to her parents' house to explain some things to Minghui. Fang Rong wanted to increase the order quantity of fake collars, and she had to ask Minghui to make more. It was best to take turns stepping on the sewing machine, and keep sewing the machine when changing people.

Gu Yanni was unhappy that Xia Mingshuang was rude and disrespectful to her, and didn't even invite her to dinner, so she started to be arrogant and roundabout.

Xia Mingshuang ignored him and asked Da Zhuang to accompany her to her grandmother's house.

Gu Yanni: "Daughter-in-law Yunshan, I have something to tell you."

Xia Mingshuang: "Da Zhuang, put on your hat and gloves, I'll go push the cart."

Gu Yanni: "I have something to explain..." Sun Guofa also said that Xia Mingshuang was different from before. It was different and even more annoying!

As soon as Xia Mingshuang and Da Zhuang left, Gu Yanni was so angry that she scolded Third Sister Gu again, "Third sister, you are becoming more and more unruly. When you go back to your parents' house, you don't bring anything for me, and you don't go see your parents first. You …”

"Auntie, second aunt, my fourth aunt is about to give birth!" Gu Daman came running over. She was not here for Gu Yanni, she was here to report the news to Xia Mingshuang, thinking that Xia Mingshuang might give her something delicious.

Xia Mingshuang and Da Zhuang were already riding away with flashlights.

When Gu Yanni and Third Sister Gu heard that their sister-in-law was going to give birth, they quickly went to see her.

Third Sister Gu told Miaomiao to stay home with her younger siblings and not go out. It was dark and cold outside, so she and Gu Yanni hurried over to take a look.

Zhao Peihong was actually a few days past her due date, and she was worried why she still hadn't given birth.

However, at this time, rural women did not go for prenatal check-ups when they gave birth, and did not pay attention to the expected date of delivery. They just went to work as usual when they were pregnant, and just let nature take its course until the time comes.

She had been experiencing throbbing pain in the afternoon. When she told Mrs. Gu, she said it was fine and that she would have to wait.

The pain was so severe now, it hurt as if my intestines had been tangled up.

Mrs. Gu had already invited Gu Heping's mother to come over. Grandma Gu Heping knew how to take care of babies back then, and later taught her daughter-in-law this craft. Over the years, many families near Gujialing have come to her to give birth to their children. Except for Gu Yunshan, who sent her to the hospital at home, the children of the Xia Ming couple's family were all delivered by Heping Niang. Liu Xiaoxia and Wang Lanxiang were also delivered by her.

Xia Mingshuang took Da Zhuang back to her parents' home.

Minghui doesn't go anywhere now. She takes Tian Huaihua and Xia's mother to make fake collars at home every day. Brother Xia's eldest daughter can help with cooking and lighten the burden.

Xia's mother and Xia Mingshuang discussed it and wanted to save money to buy a sewing machine. However, they did not have a sewing ticket and wanted Xia Mingshuang to ask friends in the city.

In fact, it would be okay to ask Song Yanmin to help get it from the black market, but it would cost hundreds of dollars, which is not cost-effective. If it can be obtained through normal channels without spending money, it would naturally be the best.

Xia Mingshuang also wanted to give it a try and said he would ask Fang Rong later.

After talking about business, Xia Mingshuang asked Xia's mother to send her children to Song's house to see if Song Yanmin was there and ask him to speak.

As a result, Song Yanmin was not at home, so Xia Mingshuang left him a note, telling him that he was free recently and that if he needed to make jam, he could send fruit and syrup.

She wanted to find something for Sister Gu to do, knitting sweaters, making jam, and sharing the money together.

Xia Mingshuang took Da Zhuang back to his home. As soon as he got home, Miao Miao ran out.

Miaomiao: "Mom, my third aunt said that my fourth aunt is not good!"

Xia Mingshuang hurriedly handed the car to Da Zhuang to park, and she went to Lao Gu's house with a flashlight.

Although she usually didn't like to deal with the old Gu family, she still wanted to take a look because her life was at stake.
