hunter's daughter-in-law

Chapter 22 Needlework

After returning home, Yuan Hong was even more nervous about Zhang Jin than before. Knowing that he was strong, he didn't even dare to hug him, for fear of strangling the child in his stomach.

Zhang Jin was quite dumbfounded. During the first three months of the "dangerous period", nothing happened. Now that the fetus is stable, he has retreated.

Zhang Jin pulled his arm around her waist, "He is a healthy and strong child, you see, he survived well in the first three months, so don't be too nervous."

Yuan Hong carefully touched Zhang Jin's abdomen, feeling unreal, there was a fragile yet tenacious life hidden inside, and this little thing was their child.

He gently pulled Zhang Jin into his arms, rubbed against his temples for a while, and said in a low voice, "Thank you..."

It seems that his fate is not what everyone thinks...

After returning that day, Yuan Hong didn't let Zhang Jin run around with him.

However, Zhang Jin insisted on taking on the job of cooking. Yuan Hong was afraid that he would be tired, but he also had self-knowledge. The taste of the food he cooked was really...so what Yuan Hong could do was to watch from the side while Zhang Jin was cooking. He is the best if he can learn, and he can also help if he can't learn. He can still chop a vegetable or light a fire.

However, Zhang Jin's hard days are coming.

According to the doctor's instructions, Yuan Hong prescribed anti-fetal medicine to Zhang Jin regularly, and would supervise Zhang Jin to drink it all.Zhang Jin had no choice but to finish his most hated traditional Chinese medicine every time. Fortunately, Yuan Hong would prepare snacks such as sugar or plums for him every time.

After sowing the rice seeds, Yuan Hong bought another two acres of land and planned to plant soybeans and cotton respectively.

Planting soybeans is Zhang Jin's idea. He found that there are very few soy products here, only tofu and tofu flowers.If there are beans, he can make soy milk, or even bean puffs, bean skins, and yuba.He used to not drink much milk, but a cup of freshly ground soybean milk every day.He thought maybe this is also a way to make money.

As for growing cotton, it was suggested by Madam Zhang.

Zhang Jin's reaction after pregnancy was actually quite good, the child didn't bother him much.But even so, it's still a bit uncomfortable.

In order to make Zhang Jin feel more relaxed, Yuan Hong went down the mountain to seek advice from Nanny Zhang.

Nanny Zhang was so happy when she heard the news that Zhang Jin was pregnant, she ignored Yuan Hong's obstruction and went up the mountain with a basket of eggs and two bags of sugar to visit.

"Oh! That's great!" Zhang Nanny smiled happily as soon as she entered the door, and walked quickly to Zhang Jin who was sitting in the yard basking in the sun, and said, "It's been three months! Let me see!"

Nanny Zhang helped Zhang Jin to sit up, looked him up and down carefully several times, and her smile grew bigger and bigger, "Not bad! Not bad! I'm pregnant!! Look at me, I'm so blind. I didn’t see it! What a presbyopia!!”

Zhang Jin didn't know how to place her awkward hands and feet.

Sensing Zhang Jin's embarrassment, Madam Zhang let go of Zhang Jin's hand, let him sit down again, and said with a smile, "There is no need to be embarrassed, I was shyer than you before! You are blessed! "

Zhang Nanny's tone was full of emotion, "You don't remember, you don't know. In our country of Xia, pregnancy is usually three to five years after marriage, and some couples can't even have children in their entire lives.

I was the eldest who was conceived two years after marrying Yuanfeng. This is already the earliest pregnancy in our area.You got pregnant not long after you got married, which shows that you are blessed, and God is also looking after you.The lottery I asked for you last time is not in vain. I will go to the temple to repay the wish in a few days. I must thank the Bodhisattva! "

Seeing Nanny Zhang clasped her hands together with a grateful face, Zhang Jin didn't know what to say, but he even went to pray to the Bodhisattva!

Seeing that Nanny Zhang was still babbling, Yuan Hong picked up Zhang Jin in time and asked Nanny Zhang how to solve the problem of a pregnant woman's poor appetite.

"When you're pregnant, it's true that you'll have a bad appetite. But, of course, you can't eat without food. If you eat more, your child will grow stronger in the future." After listening to what Yuan Hong said, Nanny Zhang replied, "Generally Pregnant women like to eat sour ones, so I’ll bring some pickled strawberries over tomorrow.”

Nanny Zhang patted Zhang Jin's hand, "I'm from here, I know it's not easy to get pregnant, thank you for your hard work!"

"I am the child's... mother and father, how can I find it hard." Zhang Jin is still not used to the two words of mother and father.

"It's good for you to think like this." Nanny Zhang said in relief.

Later, Nanny Zhang carefully explained some things that the two of them should pay attention to, because neither of them has an elder, and the matter of pregnancy and childbirth is basically like getting on a sedan chair for a big girl-for the first time, Nanny Zhang naturally took care of everything , Explain everything that can be explained, for fear of missing anything.

"By the way, Yuan Hong, didn't you buy another two acres of land?" Nanny Zhang looked at him and asked, "What do you plan to plant?"

"It hasn't been decided yet," Yuan Hong replied.

"The child will probably come out in autumn. You should prepare to plant some cotton. Then you can make some new clothes and quilts. Mother Li in the village is an expert at weaving. When you have harvested cotton, you can hand it over to him. Also, Zhang Jin, how is your needlework?"

Facing Nanny Zhang's question, Zhang Jin's mouth opened and closed, closed and opened again.In the end, I could only squeeze out the word "no".

After hearing this, Nanny Zhang raised her eyebrows and said, "Basic needlework is something that everyone must know, including men. No one knows whether to marry or marry a wife in the future, right? After the child is born, you should Mother and father, you have to teach him."

"Yes." Zhang Jin agreed with her scalp.

Nanny Zhang didn't exaggerate too much. In this world where there are only men, the work of female workers has to be done by men. Most families will teach their children some basic sewing skills when they are young. Don't look at Yuan Hong. He is a strong man, but he can also use embroidery needles, although the clothes are very ugly.

"I'll come over and hand it over to you tomorrow. It's not difficult."

"En." Zhang Jin nodded.

In fact, he does not reject learning.In another world, people like fashion designers generally know how to do needlework, not to mention tailors, and even soldiers have to learn.He didn't have much resistance in his heart, and after the child was born, he still had to do it himself to rest assured.This place is not like the 21st century, where everything can be bought with money. The ready-made clothes here can be worn by adults.For children's clothes, the best materials will definitely be used at home, but it is different in the store.

After Nanny Zhang explained these things, she agreed with the two of them to come back tomorrow, and Yuan Hong sent him back.

Zhang Jin sighed, the child was already so tired before it was born, and the responsibility would be heavy in the future.

The next day, Nanny Zhang went up the mountain early, and couldn't even wait for Yuan Hong to go down to pick him up.

"Have you eaten yet?" Zhang Jin saw that Nanny Zhang had climbed up the mountain early in the morning for them. Apart from being moved, she felt a little guilty, and she didn't know if the old man had breakfast.

"Eat, eat. The old people get up early, so you don't have to worry about me, just eat breakfast first."

"You'd better use some with us." Yuan Hong pulled Nanny Zhang to sit down, "The buns made by Zhang Jin are delicious, you must try them."

"Yeah, and this shredded radish, how do you think it's pickled?" Zhang Jin said with a smile.

Nanny Zhang shook her head helplessly, and had to sit down, "Okay, I won't be polite."

"...Mmm! This bun is so delicious!!"

Nanny Zhang tasted the buns, her eyes widened in surprise, she didn't expect the taste to be so good, "You still have such a skill! It's much more delicious than the ones we usually buy!... ·This shredded radish is also delicious, crispy and delicious!"

Zhang Jin smiled, and handed Madam Zhang a bowl of tea so that he wouldn't choke.

Yuan Hong felt honored when he heard Madam Zhang's praise, "There are also these meat strips, you can try it again."

After Zhang Momo tasted it, she was completely convinced by Zhang Jin's cooking skills, "I hid the pork jerky you gave me last time, and I didn't eat it. These days, those boys are pestering me every day to say that I want to eat meat. Give it to them." I was not satisfied after making it, which made me confused. It seems that this is the reason, and I think they must have stolen the pork jerky."

"Since Xiaobing and Xiaohong like it, we still have it here. You can bring it back today, and it's not a valuable thing." Yuan Hong said.

"You gave me so much last time, so I can't ask for anything today." Nanny Zhang joked, "What if they take their mouths off, and they won't like the food I cook in the future?"

This time, Nanny Zhang brought a large jar of pickled strawberries to Zhang Jin, hoping that eating some sour ones would improve Zhang Jin's appetite.

When he first started learning needlework, Zhang Jin was immediately cut several times, which made Yuan Hong feel so distressed that he almost refused to let him learn.

Yuan Hongcai didn't stop Zhang Jin from talking nonsense.But afraid of Zhang Jin's hardship, he also picked up the embroidery needle and started to do it. If he learned it, he wouldn't need Zhang Jin to make clothes.

However, the craftsmanship was so horrible that Zhang Jin couldn't help laughing out several times. The things Yuan Hong sewed couldn't be seen at all, and people praised him for sewing like a centipede.Finally, Nanny Zhang couldn't bear it anymore and drove him out.

Fortunately, Zhang Jin is not as talented as Yuan Hong, and under the supervision and guidance of Madam Zhang, her skills have gradually improved.

After a few days of learning, Zhang Jin followed suit and made a small dress. The stitches were clumsy in all aspects, but at least it looked like a dress. If she continued to practice, the child's clothes might not need to be bought in stores in the future.

Seeing that Zhang Jin had learned about the same, Zhang Nanny finally breathed a sigh of relief.After checking that the cotton and soybeans planted by Yuan Hong were all right, Mammy Zhang was completely relieved.In the end, she helped them tidy up the vegetable garden, and Madam Zhang went home, and would not go up the mountain again for a short time.

Both Yuan Hong and Zhang Jin were very grateful to Nanny Zhang. If it wasn't for him, the two of them would basically be blind and would know nothing.After Nanny Zhang went back, the two specially prepared gifts to reward them at home, fearing that Nanny Zhang would refuse to accept them, they gave them all snacks made by Zhang Jin.

It was a daughter-in-law of Nanny Zhang who opened the door for the two of them. When she saw that it was the two of them, her face was a little ugly, but she didn't say anything bad.

Zhang Jin and Yuan Hong left after putting down the presents, and Nanny Zhang was not there, so if they stayed there, it would only make both of them feel uncomfortable.

In fact, Nanny Zhang is not easy. If he helps them two outsiders like this, even if the family members don't say it, they will still mind it in their hearts.

So Zhang Jin wanted to learn everything he needed to learn as soon as possible, so as not to have to trouble his old man again.

The author has something to say: I have seen your comments and some questions in the article, so let me briefly talk about it here.Is such that,

In Chapter 7 the truth, it is briefly mentioned that the body of a man who has taken pregnancy pills will undergo certain changes, such as voice, skin and so on.Their anatomy is slowly changing, but of course they never become women.Zhang Jin didn't know about these subtle changes. On the one hand, Yuan Hong had been with Zhang Jin all the time, so it was difficult to notice such subtle changes, just like some people can't feel that their friends who are together every day have lost weight. He was too worried about Zhang Jin's body.However, Lou Xiao is not familiar with Zhang Jin, but also understands the changes of pregnant women, because he is one of them, so he can tell whether Zhang Jin is pregnant at a glance.In fact, it's a bit like distinguishing between South Asians and East Asians, and it's not that exaggerated.It was my negligence not to explain in the text, if you think my explanation is far-fetched, please forgive me, thank you~~~~~~
