He Xiaoyun went to the mountain again to pick hawthorn and dried the hawthorn for Wei Jianwei. However, before it was dried, something happened at home and Feng Qiuyue gave birth in advance.

The night before, there was a light rain, and the ground was wet. Feng Qiuyue didn\'t pay attention and slipped into the yard. Although she didn\'t fall, she was frightened. Soon her stomach hurts.

Fortunately, she has always been in good health. Counting the time, the month is almost full. After the middle wife came, she successfully gave birth to a healthy baby girl.

The house was in chaos, feeling both surprised and happy, only Wang Chunhua was calm, and directed Wei Jianguo to inform the Yue family and let Wei Zhenxing watch Wei Yuanhang.

When Feng Qiuyue\'s family arrived, they were all packed inside and out. The baby girl was sleeping next to her mother wrapped in a swaddle. Feng Qiuyue also changed to clean clothes and leaned on the bed to rest.

Mother Feng was carrying big bags, including dried longans, eggs, brown sugar, etc. for her daughter\'s confinement, as well as clothes and diapers for her granddaughter. She wanted to bring it back in two days, but she didn\'t know that there would be an accident.

When she came, her eyes were red, and she wiped her tears when she saw her daughter was really fine. Mothers understand the pain of childbirth best and are the most frightened of their own children giving birth.

Feng Qiuyue\'s complexion was a little pale, but she was in good spirits, "Mom, sister-in-law, sit down."

Her mother was wiping her tears and did not speak. Her sister-in-law patted her chest and said, "Qiuyue, you scared us. When Jianguo came to the house and said you gave birth, Mom even broke a bowl."

Feng Qiuyue smiled: "It seems that next time, I have to pay mom a new bowl."

"You girl, you still want to talk and laugh?" Mother Feng finally came over, "Didn\'t you know how to be careful? If something happens, it will be too late for you to cry."

Her sister-in-law hurriedly said: "Let\'s not talk about it, isn\'t Qiuyue doing well now? Mom, look at your little granddaughter, how well-behaved she sleeps."

Mother Feng looked at her little granddaughter, she still said a few caution words to her daughter, and then began to explain what she should pay attention to during confinement and how to take care of her newborn child.

Mother Feng wanted to stay and take care of her daughter, but when they came here, they walked in a hurry. The family didn\'t make arrangements, and she saw that her daughter\'s mother-in-law was really thoughtful, so she was relieved and hurried home before dark and planned to come back the next day.

After supper was ready, He Xiaoyun first-served Feng Qiuyue with a portion. A pregnant woman could not go out, she had to eat in the room during confinement.

"Xiaoyun, I will trouble you during this time." Feng Qiuyue said.

The little baby was asleep, and He Xiaoyun was watching her closely. Hearing what she said, He Xiaoyun smiled, "Sister-in-law will make me angry if she says it like that."

Feng Qiuyue also laughed, "Don\'t be angry, don\'t be angry."

"Originally, the eldest brother was going to bring you the food. Mom told him to eat first. He had to take care of you and the baby at night. Sister-in-law, you didn’t know. When you gave birth, I saw eldest brother’s eyes were red and tears were about to fall. ."

"That\'s really shameful." Feng Qiuyue was disgusted, but her eyes were smiling.

After busying all day, lying on the bed at night, He Xiaoyun let out a long sigh of relief.

"Mom, why does my little sister always asleep?" Wei Yuanhang asked while holding the quilt.

He Xiaoyun turned sideways, facing the child, and said: "You can grow taller if you sleep. The little sister is so small, of course, she has to sleep more."

"Can she play with me when she grows taller?"

"Yes, but even if your sister grows taller, she is still younger than you. You have to love her, don\'t you?"

The child nodded vigorously, "I am her brother, I will love my little sister!"

He Xiaoyun smiled and poked him in the face: "During this time, grandma has to take care of your aunt and little sister, and mother would also help. You are the older child. You have to be obedient. You need to follow your grandpa. You can’t run around. You also can’t go to the river alone, do you understand?"

"I know, you said that if I ran to the river alone and fell down, I would never see you again."

"You\'re so smart. It seems that Xiaoyuan has become an older brother, and he has really grown up." He Xiaoyun put a good boy on him, and the child was very happy.

"Then, can I hold my little sister?"

"You can\'t right now. Your little sister\'s body is too soft, and she will get hurt if you\'re not careful. You can only take a look and talk to her. You can\'t hold or touch her hard."

Wei Yuanhang said, "That seems to be meaningless."

He Xiaoyun laugh when she heard his adult-like tone: "You are the most interesting. Go to bed."

At night, Wei Jianguo took care of his wife and child. During the day, Wang Chunhua, He Xiaoyun, and Mother Feng also came often. Except for the first few days, they were a little hectic. After that, everyone quickly adapted.

The autumn harvest was approaching, and Wang Chunhua decided to drive the pigs raised at home to the food station.

Farmers who raise pigs also need to complete the task of state monopoly, that is, buy one and keep one. If they raise two pigs, they have to hand over one pig to the state. If they only raise one pig, then the state will buy half and the family can save half.

Moreover, the purchased pigs have a standard, and the weight needs to be more than 120 kilograms. The hogweeds, sweet potato vine, and rice bran that are currently fed to pigs do not grow fast very much. It\'s not easy raising a pig, so once the pigs in the family are heavy enough, they rush it to the food station, fearing that they will lose money if they continue to raise them.

In the past, the Wei family’s pigs would be raised until the end of the year. After being slaughtered, they would be made into bacon, enough to eat for half a year in the coming year. But now Feng Qiuyue is confined and has a labor force and an extra child to take care of. 

The autumn harvest is now in sight. The family really can\'t take care of the pigs, because they\'re afraid that they will lose meat if they\'re not fed properly, so they just rush to finish the task early.

Wei Zhenxing and Wei Jianguo used their family carts to transport the pigs. They set off early in the morning and returned in the afternoon.

After arriving home, Wang Chunhua sent some pork liver, pig blood, etc. to the neighbor\'s house, and then cut half a fan of pork into long strips, prepared to be salted and marinated, so as not to be spoiled.

"The meat was marinated early this year. When Jianwei comes back next year, I don\'t know if it\'s still be left." Wang Chunhua suddenly said, every Chinese New Year, her second son is not at home, and he has not been able to eat pork at home.

As soon as Wang Chunhua said that, He Xiaoyun remembered that the dried hawthorn for Wei Jianwei hadn\'t been sent out. The house was recently busy, she even forgot to write a letter to him.

He shouldn\'t be waiting eagerly, right? He Xiaoyun thought with a little guilty conscience, but there were just too many things to do.

Wang Chunhua asked He Xiaoyun to pass the salt, but when she shouted, Xiaoyun didn\'t respond, "Xiaoyun?"

"Ah?" He Xiaoyun came back to her senses, and hurriedly passed the salt over, and said, "Mom, why don\'t I make some jerky and dried meat for Jianwei?"

Making more food for him is her compensation for him when she has forgotten to respond to his letter.

"That\'s fine." Wang Chunhua nodded, leaving two pieces of good meat for her. She didn\'t worry that He Xiaoyun was ruining things. Recently, her second daughter-in-law is so good to her son. Young people have young people\'s ideas, so why should she ask more.

He Xiaoyun went to the supply and marketing agency to buy some raw materials. Because dried hawthorn is sweet, she was afraid that Wei Jianwei would find it too greasy to eat, so she planned to make a five-scented jerky and spicy pork jerky.

The pork is blanched with cooking wine first. It doesn\'t need to be cooked. It\'s picked up and cut into thin slices, mixed with seasonings, and marinated, steamed in a pot, then spread out and placed in the sun. After drying, she will continue to air-dry. it

To make preserved meat, you need to chop the pork into a puree, the finer the better, then mix with seasonings and beat vigorously, spread it on oiled paper, and use a rolling pin to dry it into thin slices, and then steam it and air dry.

The whole process took a few days. After finishing it, He Xiaoyun tasted the meat. Wei Yuanhang, a little glutton, circled around her, "Mom, mom! I want to eat too."

He Xiaoyun gave the child a slice of non-spicy meat, "You need to share a little bit more of these dried meats with your father and eat a bit less at home. He doesn\'t have any meat to eat outside, but we still have more meat."

Wei Yuanhang frowned, "All right."

"You have to share it with your grandparents. If your young uncle comes back, you should also share it."

"So many people..." The child pouted, feeling very reluctant, but still agreed. After thinking about it, he asked: "Should I share some with my little sister?"

"No," He Xiaoyun said quickly, "Mom forgot to tell you that your little sister can only drink milk now, and can\'t eat anything else. You can\'t secretly feed her, do you hear me?"

The child tilted his head, "Because she has no teeth?"

"Yes, she has no teeth and can\'t eat what you eat."

"I see." Wei Yuanhang nodded, took another bite of the jerky, chewed, and suddenly sighed, "Little sister is so pitiful."

He Xiaoyun rubbed his head amusedly.

In the army, Lin Yuefei got up early again. He turned into Wei Jianwei\'s office and asked slyly: "Old Wei, why haven\'t my sister-in-law and nephew come here?"

A while ago, the report from Old Wei was approved and the house was divided. He watched him run over in three days, tidy up the house and add some furniture later, it seemed that he was more capable and busy.

Lin Yuefei said so many sour words at that time, He was envious because Lao Wei\'s family members were going to join the army, while his was still far away.

As a result, it has been more than a month. Neither Old Wei\'s wife come nor did he see any letter from Old Wei. Lin Yuefei wondered whether the young couple quarreled, and the wife don\'t like him anymore?

Swearing by their more than ten years of comradery, Lin Yuefei absolutely didn\'t mean to gloat. He just wanted to see Old Wei\'s deflated appearance and make fun of him by the way.

Wei Jianwei glanced at him and didn\'t speak, but slowly took out a pack of dried pork from the drawer, another pack of dried hawthorn, and another pack of pork chop, and then ate it very slowly. (Wei Jianwei being petty here is so cute that I laughed.)

"..." The smile on Lin Yuefei\'s face slowly froze, and his eyes gradually widened.

With so many things, when did Old Wei receive it? And why didn\'t he know?!

Ah! How can someone be so petty?!
