The splendid years of a talented lady

Chapter 180: Business is Booming (2)
From now on, Su Xiazhi would go back to her natal home early every day, and would not go back to the mountain village until after dark. Aunt Su couldn't sit still anymore, and went back to the east room with her beautiful daughter, who was about to go for a walk again. Then he closed the door and window and asked in a low voice: "Silly girl, tell mother, which song are you singing?"

"Where am I singing?" Su Xiazhi took the medicine according to the prescription, and continued to pretend to be stupid, as if she didn't understand what her mother was talking about.

"Mother is asking why you have been going back to your mother's house every day recently? Are you having trouble with your happy son-in-law?" Aunt Su asked bluntly as there were only the mother and daughter in the room.

However, Aunt Su is always like this. She understands for a while and becomes confused for a while. It really makes her not speak bluntly, and she won't either.

"It's nothing!" Su Xiazhi immediately stared and began to defend: "I'm on good terms with Xiucai!"

"Then why have you been running to your mother's house every day recently?" Aunt Su couldn't figure it out this time, how could a married girl stay at her mother's house all the time?Unless it is divorced by her in-laws!

"Actually, the scholar went to the county government every day for business. I was bored at home alone, and the house at home was about to collapse if you didn't see it. I dare not stay in the house when he is not at home!"

"Oh." Aunt Su nodded and felt relieved, but it took only a blink of an eye for her to lift up again: "Last time your brother came back and said that the beams in the main house of your house are cracked. , why don't you and the happy son-in-law go home and live, don't fart and knock down the house..."

After hearing her mother's words, Su Xiazhi opened the door without saying a word and left, leading Jiaojiao who was talking to her sister-in-law at the door and rushed out of the yard.

"What are you doing in such a hurry? I haven't finished talking to the child yet." Yang Qiaolian held Jiaojiao's little hand and said, "Quickly tell my aunt, is the baby in my belly a younger brother or a younger sister?"

"What do children know? Why does my sister-in-law let her see your belly?" Su Xiazhi, who was about to go out, saw Yang Qiaolian lift up her clothes and reveal a round and huge belly for Jiaojiao to show. She herself was startled. Hurry up and fasten the courtyard door first.

"It's just for children to watch." The old god Yang Qiaolian said on the ground: "The eyes of the little baby are clear and clean, and you can see what's inside the belly!"

"Is there another theory?" Su Xiazhi was noncommittal, if children's eyes were really so good, then the color ultrasound in future generations would be much less useful.

Jiaojiao took Su Xiazhi's palm and kept hiding behind her, looking quite scared.

"Let me ask you." Su Xiazhi hugged the child who had been raised at home for a month and finally had some flesh and asked her ear: "Is she a younger brother or a younger sister?"

Jiaojiao wrapped her arms around her neck, first glanced at Yang Qiaolian, and then whispered into Su Xiazhi's ear: "I don't know..."

"..." Su Xiazhi wanted to laugh, and laughed out loud immediately!
"What did she say?" Yang Qiaolian walked up to the two of them anxiously with a pale face, just wanting to know the result.

"Jiaojiao said he's a fat brother! And he's very fat!" Su Xiazhi knew that both her mother and sister-in-law wanted a boy, and she couldn't change what happened anyway, so she simply picked what sister-in-law liked to hear.

"Hey! Borrowing my daughter's auspicious words! If my aunt really gives birth to a younger brother, I will make you beautiful new clothes. Thank you for your words!"

After hearing Jiaojiao's words, Yang Qiaolian's big plate-like face immediately burst into laughter. She swayed and ran to the east room in a hurry like a duck, shouting as she ran, "Mother, did you hear that, little girl?" I opened my mouth, she said that there is a fat boy in my stomach..."

"Uh..." Su Xiazhi shook her head and walked out of the house, but she didn't forget to turn her head and shout: "Brother, the door is not locked!"

It was already dark, and they led Jiaojiao on the way back to the village at the foot of the mountain. The two of them walked around like a full meal.

"Auntie, why do they always ask me if I'm a younger brother or a younger sister?" Jiaojiao asked softly.

Su Xiazhi always thought this child was very strange. Ever since she followed her back to Shanxia Village, she never asked her mother, Min Qinglan, and no matter what the situation was, she was very quiet.

That kind of quietness beyond her age could even be called indifference, which made Su Xiazhi feel sorry for this child!
She also didn't ask Jiaojiao how she lived in Zhou's house, there were some things that she didn't need to ask.Just one look at the child's scrawny and cautious look, it says it all!
"Who asked Jiaojiao?" Su Xiazhi asked casually, the snobbish appearance of Zhou Lizheng's wife Zhou Xushi had already appeared in his mind.

"Grandma asked." Sure enough, Jiaojiao said the old witch as soon as she opened her mouth!
"And mother..."

"Then, how did Jiaojiao answer?" The Zhou family's two sons are already married, and Min Qinglan only got Jiaojiao a year or two after they got married, so when it was a normal time to conceive and give birth, all she wanted was to hold a grandson Zhou Xushi and Zhou Lizheng said it became a torture!

"I also said that I don't know." Jiaojiao suddenly clenched Su Xiazhi's little hand.

When she told her grandma that she didn't know whether the child in the womb of her mother and aunt was a boy or a girl, she was slapped twice by the grandma and called her a 'useless trash'!
Later, mother held her and cried for a while, and told her secretly, whoever asks the same question in the future, you just say, 'My mother is a younger brother in my womb, and my aunt is a younger sister'...

As a result, after she told her mother what she said, the aunt beat her again when no one was around, calling her a black-hearted 'cheesy girl'!
So, when she saw Yang Qiaolian lift up her clothes to show her belly today, Jiaojiao was really scared...

"Auntie!" Jiaojiao suddenly threw herself on Su Xiazhi, hugged her leg and started crying, "Jiaojiao really can't see, Jiaojiao can't lie..."

Su Xiazhi squatted down, picked up the sensible and well-behaved child with both hands, and was speechless for a while, this is all caused by the evil patriarchal thinking!Driving a kid crazy...

After walking a few steps in silence, she said softly to the child: "Don't cry, child, and if someone asks you this question, just say what my aunt said: Your stomach is full of shit and half fart!"
