Chapter 19: The Secret of My Mother's Family

Liu Wan wiped away a tear oozing from the corner of her eye with her hand, which was brought by the residual influence of the original body.

She gently stroked Wang Lian's little head and said:

"Find the right opportunity, you have to have a coil, my grandfather's house is quite far away."

My mother's home should be three or four hundred miles away from here, which is almost a distance across provinces.

In modern times, driving is only half a day's work.

But in ancient times, the transportation was inconvenient, and it was dangerous to let a woman's family go out three or four hundred miles away, and it would be dangerous to die if you were not careful.

On the road, there are not only flower shooters, but also to be wary of petty theft, and you may even encounter robbers who cut the path.

The most important thing is that she still has to be entangled, and she can't go back penniless, right?

If you want to go back, you don't have a beautiful scene, at least you have to look like a person, right?

With rough hands like her, and patches on her clothes, she really didn't have the face to go home.

And my father and mother haven't been in touch for so many years, and I don't know if they are still alive.

The life expectancy of the ancients was not long, and if they could live for fifty or sixty, they were already long-lived.

When she left home, her parents were in their 30s, and now they should be in their early 50s.

The mother uncovers the secrets of her grandfather's house, leaving the children in deep thought.

Wang Xiao couldn't help but suddenly realize that his father has always been a gambler, where can he get so much money to buy a field and build a big house?

Didn't you see that the two uncles still haven't separated and live with their grandparents?

The two uncles refused to separate themselves at home, because they couldn't afford to build a new house outside and buy a field.

Dad turned out to have a good life by relying on his mother.

It's a pity that my father doesn't know how to cherish it.

Mother, what kind of days have you been living all these years?

Everyone had their own thoughts for a while, and they were all stunned, especially after knowing that Liu Wan had an "extraordinary background", it refreshed the children's impression of their mothers.

Wu Hui listened even more, she never expected that her mother-in-law, who had always been short-tempered, turned out to be from a pretty good background, at least a big family.

"Mother, when we save enough money, I'll send you back." Wang Xiao immediately said.

"Okay, I'll take you back with me, and you must go back to recognize the door, and you can't cut off the contact with your closest relatives." Liu Wan said.

This must be the original owner's greatest wish.

At this time, Liu Wan smelled the rich fragrance emanating from the pot, and judged that the big snake stewed in the iron pot was almost over, so she changed the topic and said:

"Snake meat should be about the same, everyone take a bowl and eat meat."

When the children heard that they could eat meat, they immediately went to get their bowls with joy.

When Liu Wan opened the pot, she saw that the soup in the pot was milky white, and the aroma was fragrant, which made people's appetite move.

She poked the pheasant meat with her chopsticks, and felt that it was almost stewed, so she removed the fire.

Liu Wan took the two largest soup pots, beat out the meat in the pots, and put them on the round table in the kitchen for eating, and said:

"Let's go, let's eat both pots of meat tonight."

Everyone cheered and gathered around.

"Xiaohui, these two chicken legs belong to you."

Liu Wan sandwiched two chicken thighs that had been boiled to the skin as thin as paper and the meat was crystal clear into Wu Hui's bowl.

Liu Wan was flattered, she didn't expect her mother-in-law to give her chicken legs, which was a treatment that only father-in-law could enjoy before.

"Mother, give Xiaoli and Xiaopi, I'll eat something else."

"You brought the body, by the way, I'll give you a pulse too."

After speaking, Liu Wan grabbed my Wu Hui's hand and took a pulse by the way.

Wu Hui couldn't help but look at her with nervous eyes.

Now there is a lack of medical treatment, there is only one barefoot Langzhong in the village, and the medical skills are not very good, Wu Hui has not been to the doctor since she became pregnant.

Despise.

No money.

She never expected that her mother-in-law would understand the pulse?

After a while, Liu Wan had already let go of her hand and said with a smile: "The baby in the belly is very good, but there is a lack of chicken legs." ”

When everyone heard this, they all laughed, and Wang Jing said:

"Sister-in-law, you're welcome, you should eat the chicken legs, you see that the meat is so big tonight, it's enough for us to eat."

Wang Lian and Wang Li are also very sensible, and they both said that chicken legs should be eaten for the baby.

Wu Hui didn't expect that her mother-in-law would pay attention to the child in her belly now, and she couldn't help but feel a little flustered:

Mother-in-law is looking forward to holding her grandson, right?

What if she gave birth to a daughter?

The women in the village who couldn't give birth to sons were scolded as hens that couldn't lay eggs, and they couldn't give birth to sons if they ate for nothing.

Some people are in a hurry to give birth to a son, just like the eldest daughter-in-law of the Zhang family, who gave birth to a daughter in the first child, and drowned her daughter, and she went crazy.

When she was first pregnant, Liu Wan didn't take special care of her, and let her do the work she should do, eating wild vegetable porridge like everyone else.

On the contrary, after her father-in-law died, her mother-in-law began to take care of her, and the change was still obvious, and she was suddenly good to her, which made Wu Hui a little more pressured.

Seeing a trace of melancholy on Wu Hui's face, Liu Wan asked:

"What's wrong? Is there anything wrong with Xiaohui? ”

"No, mother, I will definitely give birth to a son in this child!"

Wu Hui said softly.

Liu Wan looked at Wu Hui with a confused expression, thinking: Did she say that she must have a male grandson? What does having a boy and a girl have to do with her?

Liu Wan lived in an era where women worked, studied, and lived on an equal footing with men, so the gender of the child was really not a matter for Liu Wan, as long as the mother and child were healthy.

Only then did Liu Wan realize that it was her kindness to her that put pressure on her, and her kindness scared Wu Hui.

"Xiaohui, whether it is a man or a woman, it is my grandson, I will not treat it differently, you just have to raise the baby with peace of mind, and I am happier to have a daughter."

Look at our family, except for Xiao Pian, they are all bald boys, and they are not fun at all. ”

Liu Wan's words set off huge waves in Wu Hui's heart.

She didn't expect Liu Wan to say that she liked her granddaughter, and her tone was serious, not like a joke at all.

However, does the mother-in-law really not care if she gives birth to a boy or a girl?

Liu Wan knew that Wu Hui would not believe her words immediately for a while, anyway, she gave her attitude, and when the child was born, Wu Hui would know by looking at her attitude.

"Let's eat, big guy, I have to finish two big pots today."

Liu Wan gave an order, and everyone hurriedly moved their chopsticks.

"It's so delicious, this snake meat melts in your mouth, and it tastes great." Wang Jing boasted.

"Big brother, the pheasant you caught, the meat is so chewy!"

Wang Li's cheeks bulged, like a cute little squirrel.

"Mushrooms are also delicious and fresh." Wang Lian put several pieces of mushrooms in the bowl.

For their family, this moment is happier than the New Year, because the New Year may not be able to eat meat.

For them, eating meat is the end of the New Year.

Everyone eats beautifully, for Liu Wan, she is lonely cooking today, and she has not touched the task of the system.

Liu Wan's mood did not deteriorate because of this.

Seeing that everyone was satisfied, she was in a happy mood, no less than hearing the "ding" sound of the system.

Early the next morning, Liu Wan still asked Wu Hui to cook thick rice porridge and stir-fried the remaining mushrooms and wild vegetables.

Although they are all vegetarian dishes, they taste good because they are well oiled.

Wu Hui has gone from being shocked by her mother-in-law's lavish spending a few days ago to now accepting it numbly.

Anyway, there is no endless road, if the food is really eaten, everyone will starve together!
