Yang Ruoqing's family bought another carriage.

The newly purchased carriage was left in the restaurant, specially purchased for Yang Huazhou.

The former one became her family's special carriage.

It came in handy for transporting her two younger brothers to and from school, for her and Tang Yazi to go to town, and so on.

Today's breakfast was very rich.

The exception is not vegetable porridge.

Mrs. Sun fried the broad beans newly picked this season in the pot with eggs.

Then pour in the leftover rice from last night, add the chives and salt.

Wait until Yang Ruoqing and Da'an Dajie come over to eat.

Each of the three of them had a bowl full of fried rice with eggs and broad beans in front of them.

"smell good!"

Yang Ruoqing couldn't help but lower her head and take a deep breath of the fragrance.

This is the first season of broad beans harvested in my own vegetable garden after we separated.

When I went to plant the seeds, she also participated.

Wow, I'm intoxicated before I even eat it.

"Stop sniffing and eat quickly. It's just delicious right out of the pot."

Mrs. Sun urged from the side with a smile on her face.

"Um!"

Yang Ruoqing quickly picked up the chopsticks and started using them.

Daan and Dajie had already picked up their chopsticks.

"Mom, the broad beans have been picked. Is the bowl of beans almost ready?" she asked while eating.

Sun said: "Yes, what, Qing'er also wants to eat peas?"

Yang Ruoqing nodded: "Mom, I'll pick some peas later. I'll bring some lean meat from the town. Let's make fried peas and meat for dinner at night."

"Okay!" Mrs. Sun agreed readily.

The meal was almost finished here, and Luo Fengtang came over to pick up the three siblings.

"Tangyaozi, have you eaten yet? I still have broad bean fried rice in the pot. Would you like a bowl?" Yang Ruoqing asked.

Luo Fengtang smiled and shook his head.

"Third aunt sent broad beans over this morning, and I also had broad bean fried rice this morning!" he said.

"Oh, that's good." Yang Ruoqing smiled.

As he was about to go out, Mr. Sun chased him out of the kitchen.

He holds a bamboo basket in his hand.

"Qing'er, take these broad beans to your fifth aunt. They live in town and haven't planted a vegetable garden. Let her try them too," said Sun.

"OK, all right."

Yang Ruoqing took the basket of broad beans and got on the carriage parked at the entrance of the alley.

…

Yang Ruoqing carried the basket and entered the alley where Yang Huazhou and Bao Suyun rented.

Today is the twelfth day of the fourth lunar month.

Aunt Wu found out she was pregnant in the middle of the first month.

Counting the days, she is probably more than three months old now, and will be almost four months old.

Imagine that in more than five months, a brand new little life will be born.

Yang Ruoqing looked forward to calling her cousin.

This is Uncle Wu’s first child, and it was hard-won.

We have already arrived at the entrance of the yard where Uncle Wu and others rent together.

Inside, there were children's laughter and Bao Suyun's instructions.

Could it be that Dabao is here?

Yang Ruoqing guessed and then entered the yard.

In the small yard, Dabao was running on the ground with his short legs, holding a small windmill in his hand.

Bao Suyun squatted by the well nearby, washing clothes.

From time to time he raised his head and shouted to Dabao.

"Dabao, run slower, be careful if you sweat and cough..."

"Giggle..."

What responded to her was Dabao's joyful laughter.

The early summer sun shines on the woman's face.

It was the first time that Yang Ruoqing saw her fifth aunt smiling so happily and relaxed.

"Fifth Aunt..."

She called out to Bao Suyun.

Bao Suyun turned around and saw Yang Ruoqing coming, and the woman's face showed joy.

"Hey, Qing'er, why are you here free?" she asked.

Yang Ruoqing shook the basket in her hand.

"I picked newly picked broad beans. My mother asked me to bring some to my fifth aunt for you to try."

"Oh, my third sister-in-law is really thoughtful, she knows I've been craving this lately!"

Bao Suyun quickly put down the half-washed clothes, stood up, and greeted Yang Ruoqing.

"Fifth Aunt, walk slowly, don't let your feet slip..."

Yang Ruoqing warned and walked quickly towards Bao Suyun.

Bao Suyun took the basket, looked down at the blue broad bean pods inside, and nodded with joy.

Yang Ruoqing looked her up and down.

It’s already the beginning of summer, and everyone has changed out of their winter cotton-padded clothes and trousers.

When the men go to work in the fields, they have already put on a layer of unlined clothes.

Women, children and the elderly need to add a layer of outer clothing to their single clothes.

At this time, the fifth aunt was wearing her coat.

But her belly still looked flat, not like she was pregnant.

Bao Suyun raised her eyes and found Yang Ruoqing looking at her belly.

The woman smiled.

"What is Qing'er looking at?" she asked.

Yang Ruoqing said: "Look at Fifth Aunt's belly, it's so small..."

Bao Suyun smiled even more happily.

"Silly girl, unless I am pregnant with two children, it will take more than five months for me to show my pregnancy..."

"Oh..." Yang Ruoqing suddenly realized.

Sorry, she has never been pregnant and doesn't know the details of the process.

Looking at Dabao running over there and sweating all over his head, Yang Ruoqing asked, "When did Dabao come here?"

Bao Suyun said: "I sent him here yesterday. My brother and sister-in-law were busy with farming and had no time to take him with them. We were also afraid that he would follow the children in the village to play in the water, so they sent him here for a few days."

"Well, it just relieves your boredom, Fifth Aunt." Yang Ruoqing said.

Bao Suyun nodded and called Dabao over.

"Dabao, don't just play around. Sister Qing'er is here. Come and call someone quickly."

Dabao ran over and looked at Yang Ruoqing with his round eyes.

"Hello, sister Qing'er."

He said timidly.

The sound is very thin and very small.

Yang Ruoqing looked at the sallow little face in front of her.

Can't help but think of the bald man...

She leaned down and raised her hand to gently touch the withered yellow hair on Dabao's head.

"Well, Dabao is so good!"

Bao Suyun also said to Dabao: "Dabao, you are playing in this yard and cannot leave the yard."

"Auntie, go peel the bean pods and I'll make eggs and fried broad beans for you later, okay?"

Dabao's eyes lit up when he heard that he could eat broad beans and eggs at noon.

Nodding like a chicken pecking at rice.

"I'm good, I listen to my aunt."

Then, the little man held the windmill and played in the yard.

Here, Bao Suyun looked at Dabao's figure with a loving smile on his face.

"I discussed with your fifth uncle and wanted to keep Dabao here for a little longer."

Bao Suyun's eyes followed Dabao's figure, but his words were addressed to Yang Ruoqing.

Yang Ruoqing smiled.

As long as Uncle Wu has no objection to this matter.

"Qing'er, I won't hide anything from you." Bao Suyun continued.

"I kept the bag of silver you asked your mother to send last time, and I didn't give a penny to my brother and sister-in-law."

"That money was left to Dabao by the bald man."

"If I had given it to my brother and sister-in-law, the money would have been squandered by them long ago before Dabao grew up!" the woman said.

Yang Ruoqing nodded, the fifth aunt was Dabao's biological mother.

My mother-in-law helps to keep Dabao safe, which is the best thing.
