Chapter 108: Greedy
"The road back to the village from the county seat is thirty to forty miles, and the doctor has told you not to overwork yourself recently."
Su Qingyue could not refuse the stubborn Pei Huaiye, so she had to sit on the back seat of the bicycle and was pushed all the way by Pei Huaiye.
The scene of rocks falling on the hillside that day is still vivid in my mind, and the doctor at the health center also warned: "Overwork can lead to miscarriage."
Pei Huaiye didn't dare to take the chance, so he would do it himself within the scope of his ability.
When the sun was nice and the road was smooth, Pei Huaiye slowly rode his bicycle with Su Qingyue.
The two of them stopped and walked slowly when they encountered a winding road. Along the way, they met many people who looked at them. Su Qingyue looked embarrassed and her face turned red.
Pei Huaiye said nothing and stepped in front of her, and those appraising eyes disappeared.
Su Qingyue pursed her lips and smiled. Marrying Pei Huaiye was truly the most correct decision she had ever made in her life.
The two walked to the road construction area and saw that the road was still being repaired. They met many villagers, even Su Qianqian was helping to pick up stones.
"Qingyue, are you okay?" Su Qianqian asked, rolling up her sleeves, "The ox cart is in front. If you two are injured, just take the ox cart back."
Su Qingyue couldn't tell whether Su Qianqian was sincere or pretending to say hello, so she nodded lightly and said it was okay.
Xiang Shian pulled the bullock cart over, "Come on, it's getting dark soon. I'll take you back. If anyone else wants to go back, come up together!"
Su Qianqian pulled Shen Xunbao and sat up.
Upon seeing this, Widow Liu took the two women into the bullock cart and said, "Qingyue, you should have a good rest these days. If you have anything to do, we will arrange for everyone to do it."
"Okay, thank you."
The weather was getting colder and colder. Sitting on the bullock cart and being blown by the night wind, my face, hands and feet were extremely cold.
Pei Huaiye unbuttoned his coat and put it directly on Su Qingyue's shoulders, regardless of how many people were watching, and held her in his arms to keep out the wind.
"Qingyue, your man is so good at taking care of others!"
"Oh, I have never seen a man care so much for his wife!"
Widow Liu and the two women laughed and joked.
Su Qingyue's face was so hot that she buried her head in Pei Huaiye's arms and did not dare to move. She hit her man with her little hand several times before being held by a big hot hand.
Su Qianqian looked at it with jealousy in her eyes.
Shen Xunbao next to her is good-looking and has good conditions, but he doesn't feel sorry for others, and his attitude towards her is hot and cold.
There hasn't even been a hug between the two lately.
Shen Xunbao didn't know that Su Qianqian was feeling extremely lonely at the moment. He was sitting at the back of the car and his eyes fell on Pei Huaiye from time to time.
Pei Huaiye noticed and returned an inquiring look. Shen Xunbao was a little embarrassed. He pushed down the frame and pointed to his forehead, "Are you okay?"
When rocks fell from the mountain, Su Qianqian and Shen Xunbao were helping to build the road. The hillside was so steep that Shen Xunbao and his wife could not climb up at all.
But it doesn’t rule out that they want to join forces with others.
Thinking of this, Pei Huaiye glanced at Shen Xunbao with a warning look and ignored him.
He will definitely investigate this matter!
After returning home, Pei Huaiye quickly poured a cup of hot water for Su Qingyue, "Hold it first to keep it warm."
His hands were hot from the warmth, Pei Huaiye lit a pot of fire, and put the footbath in front of Su Qingyue, "Stay away, I'm going to pour water."
"There is plenty of water, let's soak together."
Su Qingyue warmed Pei Huaiye's big hands with her warm hands, "Your skin is too rough. I'll put some hand cream on you at night."
Pei Huaiye raised his eyebrows and took off Su Qingyue's shoes and socks, "Why am I doing that for a rough guy!"
The water in the basin was still a little hot, and Su Qingyue didn't dare to put all her feet in it.
Pei Huaiye said squeamishly, and put his feet underneath, "Step on them and soak." The warmth rose from the soles of the feet, and Su Qingyue warmed the whole person and made her feel comfortable.
After a while, he started dozing off in front of the brazier again.
She walked on the mountain road for most of the day and was exhausted.
Pei Huaiye's eyes flashed, and he quickly picked him up in his arms, took him to the bedroom and tucked him into bed.
He finished cooking and wanted to wake Su Qingyue up, but the person in the bed was sleeping soundly, and his little face was flushed and very touching.
In the end, Su Qingyue half-closed her eyes and fell asleep after being fed a bowl of rice in Pei Huaiye's arms.
Su Qingyue became more and more lethargic after becoming pregnant, and her appetite was much larger than before.
During the four or five days of road construction, she was taken care of by Pei Huaiye comfortably. She ate and slept every day, basked in the sun, ate melon seeds, and played with the two puppies every day.
The whole person is more radiant and has a spring breeze on his face.
"Auntie, I miss you so much!"
Su Zhuangzhuang opened the door and ran over like a cannonball. Pei Huaiye picked him up and patted his little butt twice, "Auntie can't hug you now."
"Why?"
Li Zilan smiled and poked her head from the kitchen, "You brat, my aunt has a baby in her belly. You have to protect her from being so reckless in the future."
Su Qingxi exclaimed in a low voice, "Sister, are you pregnant? I asked you why you are still a little fat."
Su Qingyue stood up suddenly and was shocked, "Oh, I'm fat? Am I much fatter?"
Su Qingyue has always been slim. Being a little fatter makes her look plumper and more playful.
"No matter how fat you are, you are still very thin. Eat fat so that you can keep up with your nutrition." Li Zilan comforted her, and Su Qingyue felt relieved.
“The roads are not even repaired?”
Pei Huaiye told the two children to wash their hands and eat, "Well, we can pass the oxcart. With the help of Jiang Chao and President Zhang, we found four or five oxcarts and will start supplying the Hongqi Supply and Marketing Cooperative again tomorrow morning."
"Where are dad and eldest brother? Aren't you coming back for dinner?"
Today I was cooking at Su Qingyue's house. Pei Huaiye steamed three cages of flower rolls and Li Zilan fried some vegetables.
"They are eating in the brigade. There are many rolls in the pot. They will be hot when they come back. Let's eat first."
There are Hanamakis with five spices such as chopped green onion and spicy chives. The chili noodles are not spicy and are very fragrant.
Su Zhuangzhuang grabbed one in each hand and his mouth was full of oil.
"Wow, it smells so good. I want to eat Hanaki every day."
"The food at your Uncle Jiang's house is so good, are you still willing to come back?"
Don't blame Li Zilan for eating. Originally, the two children were going to be picked up yesterday, but Jiang Chao said that he was going to make fried pork ribs at home. After tempting the little guy for a few times, Zhuangzhuang waited until he had fried pork ribs today before returning.
"Hehe, I ate their food, so my family saved money."
Su Zhuangqiang blinked his eyes, making sense.
Su Qingxi quickly took out a box of fried pork ribs from her bag, "Zhuang Zhuang said, I almost forgot about it. He said the pork ribs are delicious and insisted that Uncle Jiang give one to everyone in the family."
"At that time, all the ribs were finished, so Uncle Jiang had to ask the nanny to make another plate."
Pei Huaiye smiled softly and said, "It's okay. I'll give them some of the flower rolls I made tomorrow."
He got up and went to heat up the fried ribs.
Su Qingyue smelled the smell of frying and was so greedy that she felt like there were ants biting her.
She quietly left the dining table and went to the kitchen, hugged Pei Huaiye and said coquettishly, "Why isn't it good? I'm so hungry."
