Chapter 926 First Snow's Worries

Grandma Qiu's appearance frightened her son, Old Man Qiu, quite a bit: "Mom, let them handle their own affairs. You should focus on taking care of your health and spend more time with your son."

Old Qiu's voice was choked with emotion.

Grandma Qiu sighed, "If I live any longer, I'll become an old woman who never dies. I'm content to see you surrounded by your children and grandchildren."

As soon as they stepped out of the courtyard, before they even entered the house, everyone heard these words and left with their own thoughts.

Chu Xue looked at her sister's belly and thought: This Grandma Qiu probably won't last many more days. She's getting old. This isn't an illness; she's just past her prime.

After all, they now have five generations living under one roof.

As soon as they entered the house, Chu Xue helped her sit down: "Sister, your due date is in the next few days, are you all prepared?"

As soon as she finished speaking, Qiu Shaofeng walked in: "Chuxue, don't worry, your sister and I have prepared everything. We'll leave as soon as there's any movement. I've also spoken to the midwife in the village. If we can't get her to the hospital in time, we'll ask her to come over."

She delivered most of the children in the village; she's very experienced.

Seeing the mess in the house, she instinctively wanted them to move to Willow Village. However, there was a custom in the countryside that married daughters could not stay at their parents' home for postpartum care, which made her hesitant.

If Xiao's mother doesn't get pregnant again and the family only has girls, she will take the person away without hesitation.

But after discovering her mother's preference for sons over daughters that day, she no longer wanted to get involved in or take charge of family affairs, so as to avoid unnecessary trouble in the future, and gave up on the idea.

I'm thinking it's better to wait until after the baby is born and the postpartum period is over before bringing it up.

Anyway, it's not good for the house in Willow Village to just sit empty, so it's better to let my sister and brother-in-law move in.

However, this is just wishful thinking on her part. Her sister and brother-in-law might not be willing either. After all, if they move there, they might have to transfer their household registration as well, otherwise they won't be able to find work.

Xia Qiu looked at Chu Xue: "The factory didn't give us a holiday, did it? How come you have time to come over?" "I went on a business trip to Inner Mongolia a few days ago. The factory gave me three days off. I went back to the village to check on the house, and then came over to deliver some New Year's goods to you."

Qiu Shaofeng coughed lightly: "You chat with your sister for a while, I'll go check on the kitchen, you can stay for lunch."

Chu Xue then remembered that she had asked Zhui Feng to carry the sack and hide it earlier: "Wait a minute."

She stood up: "Sister, I'm going out for a bit, I'll be right back."

He took a few steps out of the house and ran towards the courtyard gate: "Chasing the Wind."

As soon as she spoke, Zhuifeng rushed out from behind a haystack not far away, carrying the sack on his back.

The dog's head was tilted back, pleading for praise, which made Chu Xue laugh. She reached out and patted its head, saying, "My Zhui Feng is amazing."

Upon hearing its owner's praise, the dog actually spun around again, and a smug look appeared on its face.

Xia Qiu, accompanied by Qiu Shaofeng, arrived at the courtyard gate: "First Snow, what's up?"

Before he could finish his question, he saw the dog carrying a sack and exclaimed in surprise, "Zhuifeng!"

He quickened his pace and reached out to touch Zhuifeng: "Is your work at the grain station finished?"

Mentioning the first snow made her angry, but fearing that her sister would be unhappy, she didn't mention what had happened before: "It's almost time. I'm planning to take it back to the city for the New Year."

Qiu Shaofeng, worried that his wife would get cold, said, "Let's go inside and talk. If people see Zhuifeng carrying things, they'll probably all come and watch."

The main concern was that it might attract jealousy from others. Fortunately, it was too cold that day, and it was lunchtime, so there weren't many people outside.
