Chapter 1212: Chapter 1212: Going to the City
Wei Kaiyun smiled apologetically, "Hmm, it’s nothing, just thinking about you two with six kids, and Xiao Li is still pregnant, it’s concerning."
"Sigh, if it were before, Master Shang could have gone with you; this year, the old man’s health is really weak. Doctor Liu checked on him, and it’s just aging; there’s no better solution.
I’ve already given my ginseng to Master Shang, but I don’t see any particularly noticeable effect.
When you have time, find out Master Shang’s intention; one day, he might want to be buried somewhere specific?"
"He once told me, just here. He thinks this place is scenic and pleasant."
This topic is quite heavy, but it’s also unavoidable.
The next day, the five of them went up the mountain, Jiang Xinyu drove with six children and Zhao Xiaoli to the city.
The kids were, of course, thrilled, even Little Abao couldn’t sit still in Jianbin’s arms and bounced up by himself.
"Xinyu, do you think we’re spoiling the kids too much?"
"I don’t think so, right? What kid doesn’t like going out to play?"
Only Shi Xian and Abao were excited. Those two are just energetic when people are around.
Jiang Xinyu went to the county hospital, because she’s planning to give birth here, so it’s convenient for check-ups.
Sometimes fate can be truly miraculous, Jiang Xinyu unexpectedly ran into Tingting’s mother at the hospital.
From afar, watching her with a big belly again, hoping she would give birth to a son this time. Otherwise, it would still be a child’s fate to be sent away.
Both of them still found the doctor from last time, the doctor helped Zhao Xiaoli with a check-up, "Your body is fine, no need to worry."
This reassured Jiang Xinyu, as long as Zhao Xiaoli is doing well.
The doctor also recognized Jiang Xinyu, "The one who was here last time to give birth with you just came for a check-up, her health isn’t good, but the child is fine."
Jiang Xinyu nodded, that woman clearly seemed to have no opinion of her own.
After the check-up, Zhao Xiaoli was found to be fine everywhere, and the two quickly left, as the kids were still in the car.
Shi Xian originally didn’t want to, but Jiang Xinyu thought it wasn’t good for children to come to the hospital, so firmly didn’t allow it.
He behaved only because there were older siblings in the car.
Mother and children arrived in the city, because it was cold at home, they were dressed warmly.
Jiang Xinyu didn’t want to tidy up, she just wanted to call Zhang Bao Hua and have them go to the village; they really act like she doesn’t exist.
After waiting for a while before dialing through, Zhang Bao Hua didn’t expect it to be Jiang Xinyu’s call.
He has been taking care of the two floors; there has been no news for years, finally waiting for this.
Jiang Xinyu told him to go to the village.
Zhang Bao Hua understood Jiang Xinyu’s intention.
"Sister-in-law, rest assured, I’ll go over tomorrow."
"Okay, if there’s really no way, just tell Wang Xiaolong, I’ve gifted him this house."
"Sister-in-law, don’t worry, I can handle this."
Jiang Xinyu sighed; actually, if it wasn’t because this is Old Jiang Family’s house, she really wouldn’t want it.
But since she took someone else’s daughter’s place, she should handle things the daughter should.
Feifei was right, someday she’d surely return, after all, the Jiang Family is buried there.
"Alright, thank you."
"Sister-in-law, it’s what I ought to do. How is Brother Wei?"
"Let’s have him call you in a few days; he has things to do lately."
After hanging up, Jiang Xinyu was still a bit upset. But she knew it was pointless to worry, the worst case is that this house is taken by Kong Mengjie, but eventually she’d get it back. She could wait a few years.
Leaving the bad mood aside, the family went out to play.
What is there to play with? It’s just shopping.
Women, whether happy or upset, spending money is the best method.
So Jiang Xinyu pushed three young ones, with three older ones beside, Zhao Xiaoli found this setup quite amusing.
Actually, shopping now is limited; what can you buy? Just food, necessities, no luxury goods since her past life until now; she’s never actively bought any.
If a house is considered a luxury, then maybe.
Bought too much and couldn’t carry it, Jiang Xinyu was worried.
"Mom, I can find a car outside to take it home."
Jiang Xinyu nodded, Jianbin and Shi Jing followed Feifei out. Soon a middle-aged man arrived, riding a tricycle.
Everything was loaded on the vehicle, Jiang Xinyu asked Zhao Xiaoli and the kids to wait here while she followed to go back, then go to the grain station. Fine grains are always bought because the family eats a lot.
The man was honest, after helping Jiang Xinyu load the vehicle, he drove her back, then this bunch went to the grain station again, rice was available, but only bought fifty pounds, they wouldn’t sell more, Old Yang and others had to buy.
Flour was bought a hundred pounds. This wasn’t too much, although coarse and dark, it’s always tastier than cornmeal.
After sending it back again, Jiang Xinyu gave the man two yuan.
"Let’s go eat."
"Mom, restaurant food isn’t tasty."
Jiang Xinyu shrugged, there’s not much she could do.
Today their luck was decent, cabbage and vermicelli filled buns, ordered three bowls of millet porridge, mother and kids shared them.
"Let’s go home, your dad must be worried."
Called Han Xiangjun asking him to find rice seeds, try next year, even if it’s labor-intensive.
Jianbin was happy to call dad, told him to come soon.
When they got home, Jiang Xinyu’s tension eased.
Not only was Wei Kaiyun concerned, but going out with a car full of kids and a pregnant woman was also worrying.
Seeing the pile of branches by the wall, Jiang Xinyu thought Jing Chu and the other two were quite capable.
"Xiao Jiang, you have several letters today." Zhang Qiu’e pointed to her room.
Jiang Xinyu took them out, looking at the handwriting, one was from Qiao Jingyi, one from Qian Jun, and another had unfamiliar handwriting but the address must be her mentor.
Opened Qiao Jingyi’s letter, saying she’s expecting a second child, and wants Jiang Xinyu’s homemade bread now. The rest is about kids.
Jiang Xinyu found it amusing, her high school classmate is quite happy.
Actually, Yao Shimin seems to be a good man, as long as they’re happy together.
Yao Shimin should be particularly pleased now.
Opened Qian Jun’s letter, Jiang Xinyu frowned.
He’s not doing well now, Jiang Xinyu could sense it from the words, should call him today.
Tomorrow she’d go to the county to call, don’t know if she could help.
