The Gao family compensated Shen Bei and took Gao Fei away. As for Xiuhong and Gao Fei's affairs, they handled them themselves.

As for the old village chief, he acted as a middleman. The Shen family did not send Gao Fei to the authorities immediately, which could be considered as pleading for Gao Fei.

This way, the two families would not have any grudges against each other. The two villages would not have any grudges because of this matter. After handling this matter, Shen Ping taught the Shen brothers a good lesson.

Let them hold their pockets tightly, take care of their lower body, and don't exude charm outside just because they have a little money.

Shen Bei was afraid of the dark because he had seen a ghost. He nodded hurriedly before Shen Ping finished speaking.

The other brothers, having learned from Shen Bei's previous experience, were even more cautious and promised that they would not do such a thing.

While his fourth sister was around, Shen Bei knelt down and begged his wife Cheng for forgiveness, saying that if he did such a thing again in the future, he would be punished by lightning.

Seeing that he was sincere in his words, Cheng went down the stairs and forgave him.

Now that she had finished her mother's affairs, Shen Ping did not delay any longer and set out for Kaoshan Village after lunch.

Time quickly came to the end of January in the Gregorian calendar. It was already the eighteenth day of the twelfth lunar month, and the New Year would be here in about ten days.

There is only one week left before the annual holiday. All workshops have been working overtime these days to complete some orders before the New Year.

After the full moon, He Li returned to the capital, and Arya started working not long after.

The two babies were left in the care of a wet nurse, who would occasionally take the babies with her and go back to her parents' home to live for a while.

Mrs. Wu is now nearly eight months pregnant and will give birth in February after the Chinese New Year. Si Ya is pregnant a month earlier than her and will probably give birth soon after the Chinese New Year.

Considering that the two of them were in confinement at about the same time, and there wasn't much confinement grass left in the space, Shen Ping took the time to go to the Grand Canyon.

Now Qingfeng Mountain is all planted with tea. If you want to find moon grass, you can only go to the Grand Canyon, which is rich in supplies.

In addition, now that the villagers have their own livelihoods, they rarely go to the mountains. Shen Ping set out in the morning and gained a lot after only half a day.

I cut a lot of honeysuckle, money grass, mugwort, astragalus, siler, safflower, and more than twenty other Chinese medicinal materials, some for edible and some for external use.

The herbs have been dried these days. I think that Si Ya is now nine months pregnant. If the period starts early, she might give birth during the New Year.

Thinking of this, Shen Ping became restless. Shi Saner's family only had two rough men, and she would be worried about Si Ya giving birth to a baby.

So I have to go there in advance and arrange things.

On the 20th day of the twelfth lunar month, Shen Ping got up early, prepared a large cart of things, and filled the carriage to the brim.

……

As the months went by, Si Ya felt that her body was becoming heavier and she was becoming more and more sleepy.

It was so cold that she didn't want to get up, she just wanted to stay in the warm bed. This quilt was sent by her mother, it weighed ten kilograms, and she felt so comfortable under it.

But she remembered her mother had told her that she couldn't just lie there and do nothing, otherwise it would be difficult to give birth in the future.

Shi Saner went out early in the morning. Now he has opened three branches and he is busy like a top. His second uncle Shi Zhong is in charge of two, he is in charge of two, and he has also hired a shopkeeper.

As the business grew bigger, he became busier and busier. The family had already hired three maids and six or seven servants. Every day before he went out, he had to instruct the maids and servants to take good care of his wife.

Si Ya is very satisfied with this kind of life. Except for not having a mother-in-law, everything else is good.

"Madam, I have heated up breakfast. You should get up and eat something. Even if you don't want to, you have to feed the baby in your belly. If the master comes back and finds out, he will blame me." Mrs. Huang said in a low voice while bending over in front of the bed.

There is no way. This lady is still young and like a child, she even stays in bed. I have to find different ways to coax her out of bed every day.

"Okay, okay, I'll get up right away!" Si Ya looked impatient and stuck her head out from the quilt.

Mrs. Huang has called her four or five times since this morning, and is even more nagging than her mother. But it must be said that the maids and servants that Shi Saner bought are not bad.

She was quite respectful to her mistress and was quite obedient. Especially Mrs. Huang, she not only treated her as her mistress, but sometimes she really loved her like her own daughter.

"Hey! I'll get you a coat right away." Mrs. Huang looked delighted. She helped Si Ya sit up, took a coat from the clothes rack beside her, and helped Si Ya put it on.

As soon as she left the bed, Si Ya shivered and quickly put on her clothes.

Now that my belly is getting bigger, the clothes are a little tighter and I can only simply tie a belt around my waist.

Mrs. Huang helped Si Ya put on her shoes and helped her get out of bed. Si Ya's feet were a little swollen now, and these shoes were two sizes larger than before, so she walked more clumsily and needed someone to support her.

After washing up, Si Ya sat at the dining table. Mrs. Huang prepared egg millet porridge and steamed buns for her.

After eating the hot millet porridge, my body immediately warmed up and I felt a little sweaty.

"Madam, the old lady is here!" The maid Donglu walked in with a smile.

"Which old lady?" Si Ya looked confused and didn't react for a moment.

"Madam, the old lady that Donglu mentioned must be your mother." Mrs. Huang said with a smile.

“Yes, yes, yes~” Dong Lu nodded repeatedly.

After hearing Huang Po's explanation, Si Ya finally reacted.

"Mom is here!"

"Hurry, hurry, help me up!" Si Ya was very excited. She knew that her mother must have brought her a lot of good things.

"Don't be anxious, mother can't run away, go slow, take it easy..." Shen Ping's voice came from outside the door.

Before she even entered the room, she heard Si Ya's noisy voice. She was about to become a mother, but she was still so irritable.

As they were talking, Shen Ping walked in from the gate, followed by Cuizhi, who was holding a lot of things in her hands.

Erya smiled when she saw Shen Ping: "Mom, the New Year is coming soon. You should be very busy now. How did you find time to come and see me?"

Then he turned to Dong Lu who was standing beside him and said, "Dong Lu, what are you still standing there for? Hurry up and serve tea to the old lady."

"Hey, I'll go right away!" Dong Lu said, turning back to the kitchen.

"Mom, please sit down." Si Ya pointed at the stool.

"You should sit down too. I feel tired when I see your big belly."

"Mom calculated the date and estimated that you will give birth soon. This time, I brought you a lot of things."

Shen Ping then asked Cuizhi to put down the things in her hands, looked at Si Ya and continued: "Besides, there are still things in the carriage. Quickly arrange two people to take those things back to the warehouse."

"Okay! Mrs. Huang, you go and arrange it!" Si Ya said to Mrs. Huang beside her.

"Okay, I'll go right away." Mrs. Huang said, and retreated in small steps.

"Mom, what are these?" Si Ya asked, pointing at the things on the table.

"These are the children's clothes I asked your aunt to make. There are more than ten sets, which are enough. In addition, there are also quilts, hats, shoes and socks for children. I also prepared a few sets of clothes for you~"

Shen Ping opened the bag on the table and took out the things inside one by one.
