Chapter 488 Flowers Blooming Pinellia 15
"Chu Xia, this is your uncle and aunt..." Second Aunt Liu took Chu Xia's hand and came to Old Man Liu's house.
This was the first time Chu Xia visited Liu Qiang's relatives. Chu Xia couldn't speak and could only nod indifferently.
Old man Liu didn't care and chatted casually with his second aunt Liu. Old man Liu's daughter-in-law took one look at Chu Xia's belly and immediately put a smile on her face, and asked Chu Xia to warm up.
Old Man Liu's son was not at home, and his daughters-in-law and children were all looking at Chu Xia curiously.
Chu Xia was a little embarrassed, but she also knew that this family had no ill intentions towards her. The two of them stayed at Old Man Liu's house for more than an hour and then left. Before leaving, Old Man Liu stuffed Chu Xia with a red envelope.
After leaving Old Man Liu's house, Chu Xia handed the red envelope to Aunt Liu.
Aunt Liu opened the red envelope and looked at it. A smile immediately appeared on her face, and she took Chu Xia to the market.
This is the first time I have traveled far since I came to this small mountain village in early summer. The market is not big, but there are many people coming and going. In addition to people from Liujia Village, there seem to be people from other villages.
Chu Xia looked around curiously, her hand being held by Second Aunt Liu. Today, Second Aunt Liu was particularly happy. As soon as she saw a familiar face, she immediately went to say hello, and then introduced Chu Xia like a treasure, and also reminded Chu Xia that she was pregnant.
thing.
Everyone who heard about it happily congratulated Aunt Liu. The two walked around the market, bought some daily necessities, and then went home.
The market is more than 20 miles away from Liujia Village. The two of them were returning to the village by car. When they walked into the village, Aunt Liu deliberately slowed down her pace. When she met the villagers who came to say hello, she told them about her pregnancy in early summer.
.
Soon, everyone in Liujia Village knew about Chu Xia's pregnancy. Chu Xia knew that this was Aunt Liu's intention, but she didn't care. Since she decided to stay, Liu Qiang's family was her home.
As long as Aunt Liu is happy and doesn't embarrass her anymore, Chu Xia doesn't mind what Aunt Liu says.
When she got home, Aunt Liu's face immediately turned cold. She pointed to the kitchen and said, "You can't live and eat for free. From now on, I will leave the cooking to you, as well as the things raised in the yard."
Chu Xia nodded. She didn't intend to live and eat for free. Doing something every day might make the difficult days easier.
Isn’t it just washing and cooking? And feeding the chickens and pigs raised in the yard. These things are not difficult in early summer.
Aunt Liu gave some brief explanations and went back to her room to rest, while Liu Qiang excitedly walked around Chu Xia.
Chu Xia went to the kitchen and took a look. Thinking of the meals Aunt Liu cooked on weekdays, she immediately had an idea.
Liu Qiang's family has a large yard. In addition to the chicken coop and pig house, there are also some vegetables planted in the yard, which are commonly eaten on weekdays.
In early summer, I picked some vegetables and went to the kitchen. When I was preparing to wash the vegetables, I found that there was no water in the bucket.
Seeing her carrying a bucket to fetch water, Liu Qiang took the bucket with a smile and helped her fetch water. This is how he helped his mother fetch water on weekdays. He was a fool, but he had strength in his hands.
There is an old-fashioned pressure well in the yard. Every time you draw water, you need to pour some water first, and then press the rod with your hand, and the water will come out.
It was a bit laborious to fetch water every time, but fortunately Liu Qiang helped her do it.
Liu Qiang carried the bucket into the kitchen with a smile, and started washing vegetables and cooking in early summer...
After the meal was ready, she asked Liu Qiang to ask Aunt Liu to eat.
Aunt Liu took a look at the meal cooked by Chu Xia and said nothing. The three of them started eating around the small stone table in the yard.
Chu Xia couldn't remember whether she had cooked before, but she knew how to cook after seeing Aunt Liu's cooking once or twice. Seeing that Aunt Liu ate the food she cooked without saying anything, Chu Xia felt relieved...
