A soft-waisted educated youth has sex with a loyal dog and a rough guy in the 1960s

Chapter 1253 Missed the Right Time

Shuangxi is straightforward and outspoken; often, he just blurts out something in the heat of the moment while chatting.

It wasn't that I had any malicious intent.

Some of the things said sounded a little subtle, making one wonder if they shouldn't overthink it.

This is especially true for Tian Guihua.

Tian Guihua took care of Lu Miao's daily life with all her heart and soul.

But Shuangxi did make some mistakes.

For example, no matter what food or drink is prepared at home, after Lu Miao's portion is served, she and her two children, Minjie and Minrui, do eat it together.

After Lu Miao and Fu Jingyou mentioned her initial refusal a few times, Tian Guihua didn't think much of it.

But now that Shuangxi said that, Tian Guihua suddenly felt uncomfortable and uneasy.

She couldn't help but reflect on whether it was inappropriate for her to bring her child along to eat and drink, or whether she was being too presumptuous.

What do outsiders think of their family?
Do you think that their whole family is taking advantage of Lu Miao and Fu Jingyou?

Just as I was lost in thought, Fu Jingyou's words were like a gentle breeze that dispelled the knots in my heart.

Tian Guihua's heavy heart was suddenly jolted, and then she suddenly understood.

Shaking her head, Tian Guihua's brows relaxed, and she quickly revealed a smiling face.

Yes.

They are a family.

Because we are family, there is no such thing as outsiders or outsiders.

She was overthinking...

Fu Jingyou's words were appropriate and pleasant to hear; no one could find fault with them.

Shuangxi was honest by nature, and after hearing this, he agreed and immediately said:

“I don’t believe it if other people say it, but if Brother Liu and Sister Liu say it, then I will definitely believe it! Before, the brigade leader came to the village and said that you have made a name for yourselves outside but have not forgotten our village.”

Shuangxi raised his chin towards the village and said seriously:
"Now that the children are going to school, they say that many of their books were brought back by you. Everyone in the village remembers your kindness!"

Lu Miao gestured slightly with her chopsticks, then calmly smiled and said:

"There's no need to read it aloud... It's all just for show. In reality, we're all the same, each with our own difficulties. Right now, we're all neighbors, so we'll do what we can. If we can't do it anymore, please don't complain."

Shuangxi and Cuihong quickly shook their heads:
"That's definitely not possible!"

“How could you do such a thing? Although we deal with the land and don’t have much formal education, we are all honest and straightforward, and that’s why we don’t have so many hidden agendas!”

Lu Miao smiled.

She doesn't like it when this topic gets discussed too much, as it sounds like she's showing off her superiority.

Seeing that the atmosphere around the table had calmed down, I simply changed the subject and asked:

"Why are there only the two of you today? Didn't Fengxia come with you? Then there's one less person to play the leaf card game?"

Lu Miao wasn't really interested in playing leaf cards.

Fengxia, Shuangxi, and the other two are close friends and usually come over to sit together.

She was curious because one of them was missing today, and just casually asked about it out of curiosity.

Unexpectedly, this casual question unearthed some hidden gossip.

First, Shuangxi said it didn't matter if one person was missing, and that his second sister-in-law, Tian Guihua, could take over.

After clearing the bowls and chopsticks from the Fu family's table, Tian Guihua sat down with them at a small table to play cards. Cuihong said mysteriously:
“Fengxia’s family said she went back to visit relatives, but that’s not true. I heard a few days ago that the brigade on the other side of the mountain has started checking birth rates again. Judging by the time, they’ll probably be here in the next few days… She’s probably afraid of being found, so she went into hiding beforehand.” When talking about births, Shuangxi patted her belly with one hand and touched her round belly with the other, looking at Cuihong with wide eyes, appearing somewhat nervous.

Lu Miao understood immediately and asked in surprise:
"What? Fengxia is eighteen, not even nineteen yet? And she's already pregnant with her second?"

Tian Guihua played a single, devastating card, saying:
"That's how it is in the village. You guys were too busy studying away from home back then, otherwise Xiao Chuan would have been born earlier too."

Lu Miao nodded slightly, understanding what he meant.

Although there weren't many forms of entertainment at that time, the city was still better than the remote countryside.

Take Dahe Village for example, it still doesn't have electricity.

Men and women work in the fields during the day, and after dinner and a bath at night, they can't do anything else but have sex.

Another point is that rural areas value a large and prosperous population.

When boys grow up, they become strong laborers.

When a girl grows up, she can also do housework and help take care of her younger siblings; it seems like a perfect fit.

Most families are willing to have children if they can give birth.

In rural areas, families like Brother He's and Brother He's are rare, especially those with only two brothers.

Normally, it starts with three or five.

Although there is now a birth policy, the policy cannot change people's mindsets.

Even if it's against the rules, the vast majority of families will still have children if they want to.

"I only married into the village last year, and I haven't even seen Sister-in-law Liu's child yet!"

As Cuihong drew her cards, she tilted her head to look at Lu Miao:

"Sixth Sister-in-law, how many children do you have? How old are they now?"

When the topic turned to children, a gentle and bright smile appeared on Lu Miao's face:
“I have four children. The eldest is a boy who will be fourteen soon. The second and third are twins who will be twelve this year. The youngest is also a boy who will be seven in June.”

Cuihong exclaimed in surprise:
"Oh! Sister-in-law Liu, you have three boys! That's wonderful, they'll all be strong laborers in the future!"

After saying that, Cuihong looked on with envy:
"That's great... It's just that we didn't have the chance. Whether it's a boy or a girl, it would be difficult to have that many children now."

Lu Miao smiled faintly and said objectively:
"Having more children is lively, but they can also be really noisy. As for the advantages... well, it's about half and half. Whether you have many or few children depends on fate; it's not good to only pursue more."

A strong sense of boundaries makes Lu Miao reluctant to lecture others.

So there was one thing she kept to herself and didn't say it aloud.

Being a parent also means having responsibilities.

Even if we don't provide our children with the best conditions, we can at least teach them a skill so that they can stand on their own two feet in the future.

If you only focus on giving birth but don't care about raising the child, it's a disastrous start for the child.

The group of people at the table were casually playing cards and chatting, and no one noticed the unusual double happiness symbol.

It wasn't until Tian Guihua revealed her hand and declared she had won, while Shuangxi continued to play her cards in a daze, that Lu Miao and the others realized something was wrong with her.

Pregnant women have a different physical condition than ordinary people, and they may experience discomfort at any time.

Seeing that Shuangxi was not as lively and talkative as before, but instead remained silent for a long time, and her complexion was not very good.

Lu Miao quickly put down the leaf cards and asked with concern:

"Shuangxi, are you feeling unwell? You look so pale."

Shuangxi's smile was forced:

"Hehe, no, no... I just don't know why, I suddenly feel a little tired. Sister-in-law, I'll head back now, I'll come over again tomorrow when I have time."
