The fake daughter married into the mountains and had meat to eat every day during the famine

Chapter 252: Doing No Good

After Jiang left, Song Yuntang washed up, changed into clean clothes, and lay on the bed, staring at the starry sky outside the window in a daze.

Since Jiang asked her not to tell anyone, she definitely couldn't tell anyone else about this matter.

But she could also see that Jiang didn't want the child, but she wanted to have the child aborted because of pressure from public opinion.

What if the villagers don’t know that she is pregnant?

Song Yuntang turned over in bed.

Although Jiang is already 42 years old, Xu Yongwang treats her well and never makes her angry, so she doesn't look old.

If a pregnancy pulse is really diagnosed in a few days, the baby should have been pregnant for at least thirty to forty days. According to the pregnancy cycle, the baby's due date is late April next year.

The weather only became warmer after the baby was born.

If she wears more in winter, her pregnancy won’t show until the late stages. Even if it does, if she doesn’t tell others, others will just think she’s gained weight.

According to Song Cheng's calculations, the courtyard on the manor can be repaired in less than three months, which means it can be completed before the twelfth lunar month.

If there is really no other option, the family will move to the village after the New Year to escape the summer heat and give birth to the child there. The village is quiet and there are no random people around, so no one in the village will know about this.

Once the child is born, all previous concerns will be dispelled.

However, all this can only be done after Jiang really diagnoses the patient's pregnancy. If it is really a misunderstanding, then all these arrangements will be unnecessary.

However, regardless of whether Jiang is pregnant or not, she will still respect her own choice.

……

The next day, Song Yuntang came out of the house yawning. When he saw Jiang busy in the kitchen, he hurried over.

"Mom, I'll make breakfast, you go and rest."

Jiang said gently, "It's not a big deal. I can do it myself."

Song Yuntang scooped hot water from the stove into the basin and said, "Mom, can you accompany me to town today? I'll take you to see my shop."

Jiang forced a smile.

"I'm afraid I'll cause you trouble. You know my current health..." She paused, then added, "It might be inconvenient."

"Mom is in good health and won't cause any trouble." Song Yuntang checked the water temperature in the basin, then went to the water tank and added some cold water to the basin.

Jiang looked at Song Yuntang, opened her mouth, and when she saw Xu Wencheng and Xu Yongwang coming out of the house, she changed her words.

"Okay, after breakfast, Mom will go to town with you."

Xu Wencheng entered the kitchen.

"Sister-in-law, you're not taking me to town today. Are you going to take mother with you?"

Song Yuntang smiled and said, "Of course you have to come with us. We also want you to help plant the second batch of pepper seedlings on the farm. Besides, my second brother has to go to the county town to deliver goods today, and there is no mule cart to pick us up. It's not safe for me and my mother to go out alone."

After saying that, he took the basin and went to the yard.

Xu Wencheng was stunned for a moment and looked at Song Yuntang with a smile.

"Sister-in-law, I will definitely protect you and mother."

Xu Yongwang heard the noise and frowned as he looked towards the kitchen at the mother and her two children.

"You all left and left me alone at home?"

Jiang glared at him and said, "Who told you to do bad things all day long?"

Xu Yongwang was completely confused.

"Why didn't I do anything good?"

Jiang snorted, "You just didn't do anything good."

"How else can I do good? I've been busy working in the fields in the mountains these days." Xu Yongwang pointed at Xu Wencheng. "Wencheng and I, father and son, have planted seven or eight acres of radish, cabbage, green onions, and garlic. What else do you want me to do good?"

Jiang put her hands on her hips.

"What? You can't do those things?"

Xu Yongwang was almost choked by her words.

"I'm the man of the family. It's not wrong for me to do these things, but you can't say I don't do good things all day long. We have to speak with conscience."

Jiang said unhappily, "Yes, yes, you are the only one with a conscience."

Xu Yongwang felt a little aggrieved.

"Wife, what's wrong with you these past two days? Not only did you kick me in bed for no reason last night, but you picked on me again this morning. Could it be the same thing as those days?"

When Jiang heard this, she felt her blood boiling and hurriedly spoke out to stop him.

"Don't talk nonsense in front of the children."

……

Hearing the couple quarreling, Song Yuntang just found it funny. He quickly washed his face and went to the kitchen to help Jiang.

There isn’t much to eat in the morning, just the same old dishes at home.

When you come back from the farm in the afternoon, you must bring a can of glutinous rice wine.

It can be used to make sweet wine and eggs, glutinous rice balls with sweet wine, and steamed buns and dumplings made by mixing sweet wine with water.

Uncle Pan had told her about the method of making steamed buns when he came to teach her how to make wine, but he had been busy before and had never had the time to make them, so he didn't know if it would work.

If that works, then we'll have one more option for breakfast.

As soon as he put the bowl down, Tu Shi's voice was heard outside.

"Girl, I'm here to pick you up."

Song Yuntang walked out of the house and was surprised when he saw Tu Shi.

"Tu Shi, why are you here? Didn't my second brother and his men go to the county town to deliver goods early this morning?"

Tu Shi jumped off the mule cart and said, "He was worried that the girl might be in danger on the road, so he asked me to come and pick you up and take you to the farm before they set off."

Song Yuntang asked hurriedly, "Have you eaten?"

"I ate it." Tu Shi nodded and replied.

He had a big appetite. Aunt Miao knew that he would come to Lushan Village to pick someone up early in the morning, so she got up early to prepare food. He drank three full bowls of porridge and ate two brown rice cakes.

Although I'm not completely full, I'm not hungry either.

"Then wait a minute, we'll pack up and leave." Song Yuntang said as he entered the courtyard. "Mom, Wencheng, we have to hurry. When we get to the farm, my second brother has to use a mule cart to deliver goods to the county town."

"Hey."

In order not to delay the important business on the farm, Jiang and Xu Yongwang quickly cleared the table, rinsed the bowls, put them back in the kitchen, and then took off their aprons.

Seeing that the mother and her two children had packed up, Xu Yongwang walked out of the yard.

He looked left and right, picked up a basket of persimmons in the corner, locked the gate, and hurried after him.

"Wait, I'm going too."
