Chapter 120: Exhortation

On the day of the child's full-month banquet, Su Qianqian set up more than ten tables of banquets, and the County Magistrate's wife, Ding Shuiqin, even attended in person to send her blessings.

"Qingyue didn't come?"

"Auntie Ding, I already said, Qingyue might be busy with the processing factory, she doesn't have time right now."

Ding Shuiqin frowned.

This Su Qingyue was too impolite. Su Qianqian said she had invited their whole family, but not a single person came.

Su Qianqian saw Ding Shuiqin's expression was not good, and started to put eye drops again, "Maybe because we had a falling out last time, she slapped me, and now she is too embarrassed to come."

"Why did she hit you?!"

Su Qianqian added fuel to the fire and told about Su Qingyue talking to Shen Xunbao alone, "Maybe I thought too much, but my sister slapped me directly. Auntie Ding, I invited her this time and she didn't come. I did something wrong again. If my parents knew, they would definitely scold me."

Ding Shuiqin held Su Qianqian's hand, "How can this be your fault? Don't worry about your mother, I'm here."

Su Qianqian felt relieved and had a good time with Ding Shuiqin.

The villagers who ate the banquet all sent generous gifts, some even three or five yuan, and said a lot of good things about Su Qianqian in front of the County Magistrate's wife.

Su Qianqian felt glorious for a while, and the whole person was as proud as a proud peacock.

After Qiao Wang returned, he was restless after three or four days of being curious about his son. After the banquet ended, he pulled Su Qianqian back to the room.

"Let's find someone to help take care of the child. I have to go to work every day, and you still have to work after your confinement."

After all, they were here to reform the countryside. It definitely wouldn't work to rest for a long time. The work points wouldn't be easy to account for. Now that the banquet was over, there wasn't much money left, and buying work points wasn't realistic.

"The key is who to find? Everyone in the village is busy. It's not easy to find someone who can cook and take care of the baby."

Qiao Wang's eyes squinted, "Leave this matter to me!"

At night, Qiao Wang went straight to knock on Widow Liu's door.

"Sister Liu, I want to find you to help Su Qianqian cook for a month. I'll pay you."

Qiao Wang was saying serious things, but his eyes were looking up and down at Widow Liu.

She was well-off now and had taken good care of herself, her skin looking even more rosy.

"No, I don't have time now. I have to go to work, and after work, I have to cook for the children. You find someone else."

Widow Liu stared at Qiao Wang's ears for a long time, suppressing the trembling in her hands and wanting to close the door.

But she was blocked by Qiao Wang, "Sister Liu, do you really want to refuse me?"

Widow Liu's eyes were fierce, "If you don't understand human speech, I'll call someone. Anyway, my reputation is bad, I don't care. If you aren't worried about Su Qianqian finding trouble with you, you can try!"

Qiao Wang didn't force it anymore, and Widow Liu's door was slammed shut.

"Your sister-in-law is in late pregnancy, try not to let her do the cooking and laundry herself. Help out with whatever you can do. Just live in the west room."

Pei Huaiye was about to go on a business trip, so he called Pei Huaimei over and carefully exhorted everything.

"I'll definitely be back before your sister-in-law gives birth. These sixteen yuan are for Father and Mother. You give it to them by then, don't let Qingyue face them, I'm afraid they will make Qingyue angry. Also, stay away from Su Qianqian when you see her."

Pei Huaimei nodded one by one, "Brother, I know everything, don't worry!"

"My father-in-law and Big Brother's family will come for a stroll every day. If there's anything, just find them and Captain Xiang. I've already greeted them."

Xiaohei and Xiaobai barked.

Pei Huaiye squatted down, touching the puppies' heads, "Good dogs, watch the door at home, take good care of the hostess, you know?"

The two puppies had been raised for more than half a year and had now become big dogs, with soft and bright fur and strong bodies. They looked very well-raised.

Xiaohei seemed to understand the master's instructions and tilted its head and nodded, humming twice.

Xiaobai was biting Pei Huaiye's trouser leg.

"Just feed these two dogs leftovers, don't starve them too much. Whatever your sister-in-law says to eat, just eat it, don't tell anyone."

Pei Huaimei nodded. She had seen these two puppies eating coarse grain buns and leftovers, anyway, better than what some poor families ate.

If others knew about this, they would definitely be drowned in spit.

Pei Huaiye got up and took out a thick stack of big bills from his pocket, "Go to the county to buy meat once a week, make the food better for your sister-in-law, but don't make it too nourishing, I'm afraid the belly will be too big and it will be hard to give birth."

Pei Huaiye finished explaining everything in detail and saw it was eight o'clock.

He strode to the bedroom, held Su Qingyue's little face that was still sleeping, and kissed it, "Qingyue, I'm leaving, take care of yourself and the baby, wait for me to come home."

Last night he demanded a lot, and Su Qingyue fell asleep very late.

Pei Huaiye's heart softened. He stared at her for a long time before carrying his bag and leaving reluctantly.

"Chief, we need to speed up, the people below are waiting for us!"

Pei Huaiye arrived at the base and showed a serious expression, "Good, let's go!"

On this side, after Su Qingyue woke up, she turned over and muttered "A Ye" in a low voice. Seeing no one respond, she called out twice, but still no one responded.

She supported her big belly and sat up, her waist still very sore.

"Sister-in-law, Brother has already left, I'll cook for you for two months." Pei Huaimei heard Su Qingyue's voice and put down the firewood and entered the room.

"Mm, then thank you for your hard work."

Su Qingyue got up slowly. By the time she washed up, Pei Huaimei had already served the food on the table.

"Huaimei, let's eat together."

"No, sister-in-law, you eat first."

Pei Huaimei was still declining, Su Qingyue held her hand, "Sit down quickly, you're not an outsider, eat a bun, quick!"

Pei Huaimei smiled and took a bun and started eating.

Su Qingyue ate and went to the factory to work for a while. When she got off work, she was supported home by Li Zilan.

"Are you not used to Pei boy leaving? From now on, if I'm not busy after work, I'll come over to cook for you directly."

Su Qingxi got off school and pulled Su Zhuangzhuang over, "Sister, this is the rapeseed flower picked from the side of the playground, is it pretty?"

"Pretty."

Su Mingqiang walked in front of them, and he would scrape flat any stones and weeds on the road with a hoe.

Su Qianqian walked behind with a group of women and clicked her tongue in wonder.

"Su Qingyue is really enjoying happiness. I've never seen anyone enjoy happiness like this while pregnant, having someone cook and wash clothes."

"Who told her to have a good life, her man is rich and thoughtful."

Su Qianqian's eyes turned red with jealousy. Why is Su Qingyue so lucky?!

Her good luck was all snatched from her!

Her man found a very beautiful little sister-in-law from a neighboring village to cook for her. After three days, she found the two of them flirting, and in the end, Su Qianqian couldn't bear it and drove the person away.

For this, Brother Shen was furious at her.

Today the weather was good, and she originally wanted to come out to relax, but she didn't expect to see Su Qingyue living so comfortably.

"If you ask me, Su Qianqian is the capable one, having such a good relationship with the County Magistrate's wife, what else is there to worry about in the future!" ===== CHAPTER 121 =====
