Chapter 1414: Harvest

Li Yungui repeatedly emphasized at the meeting, "If it weren’t for Xiao Wei, Xiao Jiang, Old Yang and the others, how could our village still be the most backward village.

No need for you all to be grateful, but don’t be ungrateful either."

They have all gone through the hardest times. From being most backward to now living in brick houses, they are all very clear about the changes.

"If anyone is ungrateful to Master Wei and Teacher Jiang, then leave our village.

Our Li Family Village has never had heartless bastards."

"Yes."

"That’s right. Anyone ungrateful should leave."

Li Yungui was very satisfied with everyone’s reaction.

"Village chief, let’s slaughter pigs and share the meat, we’re all craving it."

"Yes, let’s slaughter pigs and eat meat now; we’ve all been working hard these two months."

Everyone was heckling below.

Li Yungui laughed, "No problem, tomorrow we’ll slaughter pigs, the two biggest ones, then everyone can satisfy their cravings."

Now there was laughter below. Everyone was happy. They could work hard without fear, mainly because there is really a reward.

Yue Lanfeng was quite excited seeing Yun Qiang bringing in money.

She has lived a tight life since she was young. The new house for the family is now built, with the ground actually paved with cement, and they’re making furniture.

She has gone to see it a few times. It feels comfortable just looking at it. There are three wing rooms in the yard, two storage rooms, and a kitchen. The bathroom and toilet are particularly well-restored.

"Wife, what’s wrong?"

Li Yunqiang asked with a smile, looking at his wife in a daze.

"Nothing, just shocked. I’ve been here a little over three months and already got a hundred bucks, while I worked in Zheng Family Village for more than half a year and barely got tens of bucks."

"Wife, the village has money, lots of money, that’s also why second brother wants everyone to be grateful.

You don’t know the years of hunger; it really felt like there was no way to live. Big brother found money. He helped everyone get through it.

But our village has few people; although there’s a lot of land, we simply can’t handle it.

If it wasn’t for Xiao Wei and the others coming over, we’d still be barely scraping by. How could we be like now? Living in brick houses?

Next year, our entire village will be all brick houses."

"Haha, I heard many educated youths envied the educated youths in Li Family Village before, and now I know, really worth envying."

There were only the two of them left in the house. Li Yunqiang didn’t mind, climbed onto the kang and hugged his wife.

"Don’t, I haven’t had my period for two months; I think I might be pregnant."

During the autumn harvest, she didn’t say anything, but was careful herself, trying not to do any bending work.

Li Yunqiang was stunned. Already a father of four children, how could he not know.

"Feng’er? Why didn’t you tell me earlier?"

"There weren’t any reactions. Besides, it was the autumn harvest. I asked Sister-in-law sideways, felt I should be pregnant.

I’m careful myself, my body is strong, it’s fine."

"Let’s go, I’ll take you to see Doctor Liu."

Li Yunqiang felt distressed all over. Before, when Liu Cuilan got pregnant, she started resting, even during the big autumn, waiting for him to come back and cook.

But this girl who’s over ten years younger than him just kept silent. She still went to work and took care of the meals for him and his three children.

Now he felt sour in his heart. Before, there was still some caution about Yue Lanfeng. But now there’s nothing, knowing this girl is truly sincere in living with him.

"I don’t want to go today, feeling completely exhausted."

Li Yunqiang said nothing, locked the money in the cupboard, and went out directly.

"Where are you going?"

"You don’t want to move. I’ll go and invite Doctor Liu over."

"Come back. You hurry back." That’s so embarrassing; she just didn’t want to move today, but seeing this stance, they definitely have to see a doctor today, she might as well make the trip.

"What’s wrong?"

"I’ll go with you. It’d be embarrassing to make the doctor take a trip, and it’s not a serious illness. People will laugh at us."

"Who would laugh? Who has a wife like mine, even knowing she’s pregnant she insists on working? It’s fine. If you don’t want to move, let Doctor Liu take a trip."

"No way, I’m not that shameless."

Li Yunqiang helped his wife up. Watching her get off the kang, she seemed much more energetic.

"Don’t be like this. I was fine working. With you being so cautious, I get nervous too."

Actually, Yue Lanfeng wanted to ask if Li Yunqiang wanted this child, after all, he already has four sons, but seeing him so cautious, she knew the answer.

At heart, Yue Lanfeng wanted to have her own child. A biological child is closer. If Li Yunqiang really went before her, she would have a child of her own.

Actually, she thought about asking Li Yungui, or her uncle, if Li Yunqiang disagreed about having this child.

Li Yunqiang didn’t disappoint her; he does care about her and the child. That’s enough.

Once bitten by a snake, you fear ropes for ten years; she had stopped believing in men. Yin Zhijun was like that to her, and later married Li Yunqiang. Even knowing he was good to her, mostly feeling he liked her, yet still unwilling to believe.

After this, Yue Lanfeng truly believed in Li Yunqiang. No matter what, the two of them are going to spend their lives together.

The couple didn’t know at this time, but they had grown much closer.

Li Yunqiang carefully followed by his wife’s side.

"Don’t be like this, I’m fine. If I didn’t say anything, you’d still wouldn’t know, wouldn’t I just keep doing what I was supposed to do?"

"I’m just nervous, you’re too considerate. If I had noticed you were pregnant, no way I’d let you work."

The two arrived at the brigade office. Now idle, many people were coming to Liu Dafu for pulse diagnosis, after all, life from now on is good, but you need a healthy body to enjoy it.

"Yun Qiang, what’s this? Could it be your wife is pregnant?"

"Sis-in-law, she’s not sure either, it’s been two months since her last period. She was worried about delaying the autumn harvest, so she didn’t tell me. Also blame me, I’ve been so busy that I forgot.

Seeing her not energetic today, we’ve come for Doctor Liu to take a look."

Yue Lanfeng felt lucky she came herself instead of having Doctor Liu come to the house for a check.

With so many people in the health office, who knows what might be said.

"Then let Lanfeng take a look first, we’re not in a hurry."

"Yes, it was my turn, but let Lanfeng go first."

The couple thanked everyone.

Liu Xuefa felt the pulse, "Indeed you’re pregnant. And already three months. This menstrual cycle should be due, right?"

"Mm, it should be these two days."

They’ve been married for nearly four months, so they’re having a child right after marriage. How could Li Yunqiang not be happy?
