Age: My Small World

"Second sister, how's the car practice going?"

Perhaps because she was not used to pedaling a bicycle since childhood, Yang Yumei was much slower in learning to ride a bicycle. She has only just learned it now and can only ride slowly on the side of the road.

"I'm really good now. I'm riding my bike to work today."

Yang Yumei chuckled, looking confident.

She is now acting more and more like a worker and no longer mentions me when she speaks.

Several people clapped their hands immediately.

"Erniu, when you learn it, remember to teach your mother."

The old lady said bluntly.

"I understand, Mom." Yang Yumei responded with a smile.

Compared to her, I was slow in learning to drive. I always felt like I was going to fall, and then I gave up.

Even if Yang Jun helped him, it wouldn't work.

"Mom, you should just practice at home today. You don't have to worry about anything else."

Li Xiaohua turned her head and looked at Yang Jun, seeming to understand something.

Sure enough, at noon, Yang Jun said he had to go out for something.

In fact, he naturally planned to go and see Gu Nan Ke.

Populus euphratica Village.

Gu Nan Ke was carefully holding his waist while drying the vegetables.

It’s only been two months and nothing can be seen yet, but she has to take good care of her belly because this is her and his first child.

After touching her belly, she continued to dry some cabbage with a happy look on her face.

It is difficult to eat fresh vegetables after winter, so we have to prepare some vegetables in advance.

Some sauerkraut and kimchi had already been made in the house, but Yang Jun didn't like kimchi very much, so she planned to make some dried cabbage. This thing looks dry, but it is quite good for stewing things, and the taste is unique.

"Nan Ke, are you still busy? Didn't your mother-in-law come to see you today?"

At this time, an old man knocked on the door and walked in.

"Aunt Liu, come in and sit down."

Gu Nanke rarely smiled.

This kind-looking old lady is actually Aunt Liu next door. Her husband died early in life, and later her two sons also died, leaving her alone. She relies on making some small gadgets and selling them every day to earn a living. Although her life is difficult, she lives a clear and bright life.

Ever since Gu Nan Ke moved in here, the two of them felt a sense of sympathy for each other and became friends regardless of age difference.

Although she was called an old lady, she was actually only in her fifties, so Gu Nan Ke always called her aunt.

"My mother-in-law didn't come today. She must have been delayed by something. She can't just take care of me."

Aunt Liu said kindly, "If I don't take care of you, who else can I take care of? You're carrying her grandson in your belly."

Speaking of which, Li Xiaohua is only in her forties, but she is about to become a grandmother.

Of course, before the grandson was born, she was considered the grandmother.

"By the way, I made some osmanthus cake and brought it over for you to try."

As she spoke, Aunt Liu took out the still warm osmanthus cake from her bosom.

The pastries wrapped in newspaper don’t look very good, but they do look presentable.

"Thank you, Aunt Liu."

Gu Nanke took a piece and tasted it, then said in surprise: "It's delicious, Aunt Liu, your cooking skills are amazing."

"Can I learn from you in the future? I also want to make this osmanthus cake."

"Haha, I made it for your man, right?"

Aunt Liu saw through her thoughts at a glance.

"Oh, Aunt Liu, please stop laughing at me."

Gu Nanke felt a little embarrassed.

"Okay, if you want to learn, wait a couple of days. I'll call you when I do it again."

"Okay, then it's settled."

Before the two could continue talking, Yang Jun's voice came from the door.

"Huh? There are guests at home." Yang Jun walked into the yard and saw the two people chatting.

"Oh, it's Aunt Liu. Why don't you come in and sit down?"

He knew Aunt Liu, after all, Gu Nan Ke often went next door.

"No, no, I just brought some sweet-scented osmanthus cake for Nan Ke to try. I have to go back now."

Aunt Liu quickly stood up and walked out while speaking.

"Hey, hey, hey, Aunt Liu, please sit for a while and eat before you leave."

Unfortunately, no matter how much Yang Jun called out, she didn't stop.

"Okay, Xiaoshan, Aunt Liu won't stay."

Gu Nanke had no choice but to hold him back.

Yang Jun then shook his head and closed the gate.

"How are you? Are you okay?"

Yang Jun focused all his attention on her and said with concern.

"There's nothing different. I can eat and sleep and work just fine. It doesn't affect me."

"Don't worry, this is my second pregnancy, there will be no problem."

But when he said this, Gu Nan Ke couldn't help but look at him twice, in case he felt uncomfortable or something.

"Look at me, what are you doing? You missed me."

Yang Juncai didn't think much about it, but couldn't help but pick her up.

Then she suddenly remembered that she was pregnant, so she had to carefully let it go.

Gu Nanke glared at him and said, "Don't be so hasty. Come inside first."

The two of them snuggled together and walked into the house, and Gu Nan Ke no longer cared about her cabbage.

"What were you busy with just now?"

Yang Jun took the initiative to ask, fearing that she would be tired.

"Dry some cabbage. You like to stew bones with cabbage, right? I'll dry some more."

"I asked Aunt Liu to go with me to buy the cabbages. They are so fresh."

"It's a pity that we can't grow too much in the yard, otherwise we wouldn't have to buy it."

"Haha, I can't eat that much. If you want to eat fresh cabbage, just tell me. I can get it anytime. Don't bother you."

Gu Nanke didn't say anything, just smiled.

She couldn't always rely too much on him, otherwise he would definitely get annoyed after a while.

After entering the house, Yang Jun suddenly realized, "Oh, where's Guaiguai?"

"Haha, I went to play with my classmates. They're in the village. It's okay."

Her classmates are all from the same village, so there is really nothing to worry about.

Moreover, most people nowadays have an overflowing sense of justice. Anyone who dares to act recklessly will probably be punished with peanuts.

"That's good. Now that I have friends, my personality has improved a lot. It's time to play with them more."

"Yeah, that's why I didn't stop you."

As soon as he returned to the room and sat down, Yang Jun saw a ball of yarn and half a piece of clothing on the kang.

"What's up? You've even started knitting clothes at home."

Gu Nanke nodded: "I have never made clothes for Guaiguai before, so I have to practice from the beginning."

"I thought that after the baby is born, he will be able to wear the clothes he knitted himself, and he won't have to sell them anymore."

She was completely confused and ignorant when Guaiguai was born, and her husband had passed away long ago, so she relied entirely on her mother-in-law to take care of the baby. Unfortunately, both of her parents died early, and she herself had no experience.

Now we can say that we are starting over from scratch.

Yang Jun could see that the woman loved the baby in her belly from the bottom of her heart, and he couldn't help but smile.

He held her in his arms and said lovingly, "It's still a long time before the baby is born, so don't be so anxious."

"You can't be impatient, otherwise it will be too late."
