Splendid peasant girl busy farming

Chapter 11215

Wanghai County, Changping Village, grassland at the foot of the mountain.

Inside the big tent of Old Yang’s family.

Xu Yuanming glanced at Yang Huamei, who was looking back at him hesitantly, fearing that he would not be willing to take her back. Xu Yuanming first gave Yang Huamei a look to reassure her, then turned to Old Yang and said, "Father-in-law, everything in my house in town is ready. Mei'er can move in anytime and anywhere."

"If my father-in-law, mother-in-law and my brothers and sisters-in-law are willing, I can bring Mei'er back to town today!"

When Old Yang heard this, he felt relieved.

Not to mention Yang Huamei herself who has been having all sorts of random thoughts these days, isn't Old Yang the same?

This girl is no longer a young girl of 28 years old, she is already a widow who is getting married again. Who knows if Xu Yuanming will change his mind after the New Year? After all, they are a married couple!

It’s not like young couples. When they get together, there is no one else behind them except their parents, brothers and sisters.

But couples who get married later in life are different. They all had their own families and children in the past.

However, children are the ones who are most likely to tie their hearts down and cause them to change their minds and waver at any time.

Because during the Chinese New Year, Xu Yuanming was alone in the town, and the children of the Xu family were also in the town. Old Yang was afraid that when Mei'er was no longer with Xu Yuanming, the children of the Xu family would reappear and bring their grandchildren to find Xu Yuanming, trying to soften Xu Yuanming's heart through family affection and waver in his thoughts.

But now, seeing Xu Yuanming say so firmly that he could take Mei'er back at any time, Old Yang finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"Have you brought a carriage with you today? If you didn't, I'll ask your third and fifth brothers to find a way to harness the carriage." Old Yang said impatiently, "If they are not available, I'll ask Qing'er to help think of a way. Qing'er, is that ok?"

Yang Ruoqing had been observing Old Yang's interesting expression. From his expression, Yang Ruoqing saw through a lot of things.

Other families are afraid that their 28-year-old daughter will be taken away by a bad boy, along with the flowers and the pot. But for Old Yang, it’s his 48-year-old daughter, so he’s afraid that his new son-in-law will change his mind and not want to leave her at her parents’ home, hehe…

"Don't worry, sir. My uncle came here in a horse-drawn carriage. The carriage is temporarily parked at our Luo's house because the road from the village to the playground is relatively muddy and the wheels are prone to collapse."

"Oh, there's a carriage? That'll be easy!" Old Yang said with a relieved smile, "Then pack up for Mei'er today and go back to town with Xu Yuanming!"

Yang Huamei nodded meekly, "I don't have much stuff, just two bundles."

When Tan heard that Yang Huamei was going back today, her eyes suddenly turned red. She held Yang Huamei's arm tightly, looked at Yang Huamei with tears in her eyes, opened and closed her mouth several times, and had thousands of words to say, but they were stuck in her throat.

Seeing Tan like this, Yang Huamei was also reluctant to leave.

She knew what Tan wanted to say and what she was worried about.

It's just that she went to the town and her family was not around her, while Xu Yuanming's three sons and two daughters-in-law were all in the town.

Dabai and Xiaohei and their spouses are also in the town.

There are also several people from Xu Yuanming's original wife's family who are doing various businesses in the town.

  Tan was worried that Yang Huamei would go alone into a tiger's den. Xu Yuanming would not be at home and she would be alone. What if those people found their rented place and came to cause trouble?

"Mom, I know what you are worried about. Don't worry. No one dares to run into my house in broad daylight to cause trouble for me!" Yang Huamei held Tan's hand and told her in a firm tone.

However, Tan couldn't rest assured.

Yang Huamei glanced at Xu Yuanming again and said, "Besides, we still have Old Xu. As a husband, he will definitely protect me and the baby in my belly."

Xu Yuanming nodded, "Don't worry, mother-in-law..."

"How can I be assured!" Tan turned around and scolded Xu Yuanming: "Mei'er is going to give birth in a month or so. Can you guarantee that you will stay by her side for a month or so? You won't go to the teahouse? You won't go to earn money? If you don't go to earn money, how will you support Mei'er and her son? Just rely on your savings? What savings do you have? Haven't you distributed your savings to your sons and daughters? You are a pauper now, penniless. If you lose your job in the teahouse, Mei'er will starve to death with you. How can I be assured? What right do you have to let me be assured? Just rely on your stubborn words? Bah, what a bullshit!"

Xu Yuanming was confused.

Not only was his mind blank, his ears were buzzing. He never expected that he had added the words "don't worry, mother-in-law" out of good intentions.

  Unexpectedly, he was met with such a harsh rebuke from Tan!

What was going on? Should I tell her, "Mother-in-law, please don't worry. I can't guarantee that I can take good care of Mei'er..."

Is this the only way to avoid being scolded?

Xu Yuanming himself was a little confused.

Yang Huamei was also confused by Tan.

  Everyone in the tent was embarrassed by Tan's words. Suddenly, no one in the tent was speechless. No one knew what to say. Everyone could only communicate with each other through eye contact. Even Old Yang didn't know what to say for the time being, but Old Yang was the head of the family after all, so he used his eyes to warn Tan not to say such things. It was too much!

However, Tan didn't take Old Yang's words seriously, and even called out Xu Yuanming's name loudly in front of everyone again, "Xu Yuanming, don't blame me, an old woman, for being harsh. You are also a father, and you have a daughter. If you send your daughter who is about to give birth to a distant place like this, I'm afraid you will be no less worried than I am, don't you think?"

Compared with her previous words, Tan's tone this time was a little softer. Perhaps it was because Old Yang's warning look had some effect.

The words convey the concern and worry that an old mother has for her daughter, which makes people empathize with her.

Yang Huamei couldn't bear to scold Tan, but she was worried that Tan's words would make Xu Yuanming unhappy, so Yang Huamei was caught in the middle, not knowing what to do.

At this time, Yang Ruoqing spoke up: "Old Xu...ah, I said it wrong, uncle, I want to ask you something."

Before, Yang Ruoqing was used to calling him Old Xu, Old Xu. Sometimes she would call him Shopkeeper Xu, and sometimes she would call him Master Xu. In the end, she found that calling him Old Xu was more suitable.

Because she was the boss, and Xu Yuanming was the person in charge of the teahouse where she worked for him.

Now that he's my uncle, sometimes when I call him too quickly I tend to use the original title too.

Xu Yuanming pretended not to hear it, and everyone else pretended not to hear it either.

Xu Yuanming looked at Yang Ruoqing and asked, "Qing'er, just ask me anything."

"Well, let me ask you, where in town is the house you and my aunt rented?"

"It's in the alley behind Tianxianglou. It's the second courtyard on the right hand side of the alley entrance."

Yang Ruoqing knew that place. The environment in that alley was pretty good in the town. Every household had a well in the courtyard with its own entrance, and it was a quadrangle.

Some courtyards are filled with entire families, while others are occupied by several families. However, since each courtyard has a separate door for entry and exit, when the door is closed, if only one family lives in your courtyard, the noise from other families will not affect you at all.

Even if two families live together, it won't be noisy.

"There are two families living in your courtyard, right?" Yang Ruoqing asked Xu Yuanming again.

Xu Yuanming nodded: "The landlord lives in the east wing and the main house, and I rented the three west wing rooms as well."

"How did you arrange the layout of the three rooms?"

Although Xu Yuanming didn't understand why Yang Ruoqing asked so much, he still answered truthfully, "Of the three rooms, Mei'er and I will sleep in one room. There will be two baby cradles in the room. The middle room will be for my cousin who I invited to live in. She will help take care of Mei'er for two months, one month before the birth and two months of confinement. The room on the right will be the kitchen, and there will also be a place for dining and entertaining guests."

After listening to this, Yang Ruoqing nodded secretly, thinking that the three rooms were allocated very well.

Xu Yuanming added, "When I'm not in town, I can let my cousin live in Mei'er's room to keep her company. If Mei'er is not used to living with others, I can let my cousin live in the next room. If Mei'er has any problems at night, she can just shout and my cousin will hear it."

"Well, my uncle's arrangement is indeed appropriate."

Yang Huamei held Xu Yuanming's arm and said, "Old Xu, I only need to stay in confinement for a month. After the full month, I will bring the children to the teahouse to reunite with you. This way, you don't have to run back and forth. It's too tiring!"

  At this time, several voices sounded from all directions at the same time:

"That won't work!"

"No way."

"Mei'er, you can't do that!"

Yang Huamei looked around and saw that several people, including Tan, Liu, and Xu Yuanming, were trying to stop her in unison.

"What's the matter? Why are you reacting so violently?" Yang Huamei asked.

Mrs. Tan said: "You must stay in confinement for two full months. You are twins, and it will hurt your body and cause great loss. One month is not enough to recover your vitality!"

Liu said, "That's right. Also, if you take a baby to the mountains when he is just one month old, the yin energy in the mountains is strong and the yang energy of the baby is weak. You have to wait at least a hundred days before you can talk."

Everyone nodded. Even Tan, for the first time, looked at Liu with a calm look and said, "You sound like a sister-in-law! Not like before when you were talking nonsense!"

Liu rolled her eyes. "Old lady, if you want to praise me, just do it directly. There's no need to add a derogatory word at the end. It sounds very unpleasant!"

Tan snorted. At the moment the old lady was busy discussing Yang Huamei's affairs and had no time to argue with Liu.

Tan held Yang Huamei's hand and said seriously, "For the sake of the child, it's best not to go to the mountains so soon. At least wait until the child is 100 days old, and it would be best if he is one year old."
