Tang Xu basically ate two breakfasts, after finishing lunch, Tang Xu was not in the mood to eat anymore. Despite being forcibly given a large chicken leg, he waved his hand, saying he really couldn't eat anymore.
After eating, he felt drowsy and yawned repeatedly, his cheeks were sore, and tears welled up in his eyes.
He felt listless,
Old lady Wu Guizhi felt sorry and exclaimed, "Oh my, I'll make a bed for him. He should take a nap before leaving."
"Grandma, don't bother. Let's go back first. You and Grandpa bring a few sets of clean clothes. Everything else is already there," Tang Xu stopped her and said, "We'll tidy up here first. You, Grandpa, and Dad go back."
"No, you can't tidy up. Let Tang Li do it," the old lady turned to her granddaughter and said,
"Your brother is tired. We'll go over there first. You tidy up the house, and just lock up when you leave." Tang Li nodded repeatedly, "I understand, Grandma."
She then looked at Tang Xu, "Brother, you should go home first. You cooked the meal just now and must be tired. Go back and rest."
Tang Xu didn't pretend to be polite and nodded, "Alright, let your brother-in-law come back later to pick you up."
The three younger ones nodded, and Tang Rui also murmured in agreement.
Tang Erhu looked around and pointed to his wheelchair, saying, "Take the wheelchair with you. We won't need it for this trip."
"If we don't take it, how will you manage?" Tang Guangliang turned to him, disagreeing. "It's not like it's difficult to bring along."
Tang Erhu wanted to make some room for Xu Ge’er to sit comfortably, but he was afraid his parents would misunderstand if he voiced it out, so he didn't say anything more.
At the Wei family mansion, Tang Xu assisted the old lady into the courtyard. The old lady was amazed; the courtyard was so large, with so many rooms. It must have cost a fortune to build.
Moreover, the stone slabs on the ground were clean and neat. Walking on them, there was no need to worry about getting mud on the soles of their shoes.
A few days ago, the snow had covered every road, either packed into icy patches making it slippery to walk, or turned into muddy slush that stuck to the shoes. Now, walking on the clean stone slabs, everything felt smooth.
"Grandma and Grandpa live in the west wing. The kang there is big, and all the bedding is new,"
Tang Xu said as he walked with the old lady's arm in his, glancing sideways at the old man.
"Grandpa can also stroll around the backyard when he's free; it's quite spacious, and I've raised quite a few livestock there."
Tang Guangliang walked steadily along the stone path with his hands behind his back, "Alright, I'll take a look at how well you've been taking care of them later."
Wei Dong pushed Tang Erhu's wheelchair into the room and then went to the west wing to check on things, adding more firewood to the stove there.
"Ah Xu, I've added wood to the stove in that room. If the fire isn't enough later, you can add more. I'll go back to pick up the others," Wei Dong said.
Tang Xu nodded repeatedly and waved at him, "Take your time."
After Wei Dong left, Grandpa Tang smiled happily and praised, "This mansion is really huge. I've heard many people talk about how big Dongzi's mansion is, and I wondered just how big it could be. Now that I see it, it really is enormous. There are even two courtyards. Grandpa can go stroll around there."
"After Grandma settles down comfortably, she can stay a few more days," Tang Xu said, supporting the old lady over the doorstep, smiling broadly. "Grandma, put down your things, and I'll take you to the backyard."
Meanwhile, Tang Guangliang stood in front of the pigsty, staring at the fat pigs sleeping heavily inside, not blinking for a long time.
Hearing footsteps, he turned around and called out, "Old lady, come quickly and see how well Xu Ge'er is raising these pigs. They're so fat!"
Old lady Wu hurried over and leaned on the fence to look. "Oh my, how did they get so fat? How are you feeding them? And why are they all fenced in like this? It's inconvenient for them to sunbathe."
"They can still sunbathe because the top isn't covered. It's just to block the wind from the bottom of the hill over here, where it's windy. I'm afraid it might make them lose their appetite," Tang Xu explained with a smile beside them. "I bought a lot of soybean cake leftovers and cook pig feed twice a day, once in the morning and once before dinner."
"No wonder they're so fat," Tang Guangliang nodded approvingly. "You've really put in the effort."
"We have quite a few livestock at home that are all quite fat. The rabbits over there are chubby too. Grandpa, tonight let's stew a rabbit. Dad can't drink because of his leg injury, so let Ah Dong accompany you for a couple of drinks. The sorghum wine I brewed isn't bad," Tang Xu pointed to the rabbit enclosure nearby, where a chubby cat was curled up.
It mewed softly when it heard his voice. Tang Xu noticed a dead mouse next to it and quickly swept it away with a broom, then patted the fat cat. "Why are you here again? Aren't you afraid the big rabbits will pull your fur?"
The fat cat rubbed against his leg, curled its tail, circled him twice, then looked up at the two elders.
It didn't recognize them, and they didn't smell good either.
After looking for a bit, it continued to rub on Tang Xu.
Tang Xu bent down and pinched its chubby face, then rubbed its furry head a couple more times.
Ten or so plump rabbits, big and small, bounced around Tang Xu without any awareness of this person's sinister intentions.
Looking at the chubby rabbits, they didn't find them cute at all. They thought they could stew a big pot of meat.
But the old man waved his hand and said, "Eating so much meat at night, I'm afraid I won't sleep well."
"We always have meat for lunch and dinner at home. Ah Dong can't eat enough without meat, Ah Yang and Xiao Xi are also at the age when they can eat a lot. If they don't eat enough, they'll be hungry again.” Tang Xu supported the old lady and walked her to see the small pond,
“Grandpa and Grandma, if you want to eat something, just tell me.”
“Doesn’t your yard have a lot of bugs in the summer evenings? There's so much water, and it's next to the mountain. You've raised so many chickens, ducks and geese, and there are so many mosquitoes and insects in summer, make sure to not get bitten and sleep well. “
The old lady was worried and pulled his hand to the pond and pointed, "Why not fill in this pond, it's better without water.”
“It's okay, it's only at the end of summer, Ah Dong is usually very diligent, we both clean up the pens here every day, and there’s basically no mosquitoes. Grandma, don't worry, I also burn wormwood, and use mosquito nets. It won't affect me.”
After walking around the front yard, they went to the backyard, and when she saw the two wild goats coming down from the mountain, the old lady widened her eyes in surprise, “Where did these wild goats come from?”
“These wild goats were caught by Ah Dong. I’ll shave the wool on them when it's warm in the spring. I want to save some wool to knit sweaters, then knit Grandma a pair of wool pants, which are warmer than cotton pants.”
Wu Guizhi hadn't seen wool pants, but looking at the two goats leisurely standing in the snow eating hay with their thick wool, they didn't look cold. “Can you shave it?”
"Let Ah Dong shave, I definitely can't do it." Tang Xu grinned.
After walking around the courtyard, the old lady became a bit tired, and Tang Xu was tired too, so they went back to the house first.
However, the old man became more and more excited as he walked. He looked here and there, coincidentally caught Wei Dong bringing the others back. He came over and started chattering away with Wei Dong, pointing at the vegetable garden.
Normally, one wouldn't hear him talk; it seemed like the men in the Tang family were all quiet types, especially Tang Erhu and the old man.
Who would have thought that just a few plots of vegetable garden in the front and back yards would excite this experienced old farmer so much?
Wei Dong himself didn't farm, even though he had someone come over to help plow and plant in the yards. So just listening to the old man chatter, he could hardly understand most of it, but he nodded along, seeming indifferent.
Tang Yang listened with relish beside them, even holding his grandfather's hand and asking questions.
Finally, he concluded, "Grandpa, did my brother fertilize the land exceptionally well?"
"Yes, it's quite fertile. If we sow vegetables when spring comes, what we plant in this area will be enough to eat, even more than we can consume."
Tang Guangliang's tone was full of envy. Their courtyard was mostly for growing vegetables; usually, the most they planted were radishes and Chinese cabbage because they stored well in winter.
Other crops like beans and eggplants were grown and harvested for the season and usually didn't leave anything behind. "You're putting all the fertilizer in the vegetable garden, how are you going to manage the fields?”
Tang Guangliang looked at him disapprovingly, "You still have to fertilize the fields over there first, otherwise the grain harvest will be less. "
"I have rented out the fields, so I don't have to take care of it," Wei Dong pointed to the vegetable field, "Ah Xu got the land after we got married, and I usually don't care about these things."
Tang Guangliang was surprised, "He got it? He made the land fertile?
"Yeah, I just help with weeding and watering. I do whatever he tells me to do." Wei Dong's tone carried a nonchalant air.
Tang Guangliang stared at him for a while after he finished speaking, then patted his arm. "You, you are really caring."
Wei Dong slightly curled his mouth into a polite smile.
…
That night after dinner, Tang Xu had just finished bathing when he started feeling uncomfortable in his stomach, his stomach rumbling and unable to hold back fart. He spent quite some time in the outhouse, his legs numb, and although he managed to relieve himself, it wasn't much.
The next morning, Wei Dong hurriedly took Tang Xu to the town with a mule cart. Upon hearing their concerns, the local doctor at Huichun Hall first showed surprise, examined Tang Xu's stomach, felt his pulse, and then had him lie down while pressing on his abdomen.
The doctor suppressed a smile and asked, "Have you been eating exceptionally well lately?"
Tang Xu looked at him bewilderedly, not understanding.
Wei Dong shook his head, "He’s always eaten well at home."
"Have you been eating a lot every day during your pregnancy but moving less?" the doctor continued, "You haven’t been moving around much, right?"
Tang Xu nodded, "It's cold, so I don't feel like going out."
"That won't do, it's easy to affect your health if you eat without moving much. When you go to the outhouse normally, have you felt any discomfort?" the doctor asked again.
Tang Xu stared at him blankly, blushing under the doctor's slightly teasing smile.
Could it be...
The doctor took out pen and paper, bowed his head to write a prescription, "It's your first pregnancy, it's normal to pay little attention to this, go back and drink this for two days, and run to the outhouse a few more times, and it will be okay."
Tang Xu blushed, and didn't want to say a word.
It isn’t that he is pregnant with triplets, but he’s sure he has a stomach full of sh*t!!!
What were they worried about?
Worried that too much sh*t will squash the baby to death!!!
Ah, ah, ah, ah!!!
He wanted to drill into the ground and leave this embarrassing world!!!!
Tang Xu, who was furious, didn't hear the doctor's instructions. His mind was full of the fact that his big belly was caused by his sh*t.
Woohoo, his face is totally gone!!!
Wei Dong went to get the medicine, and Tang Xu blushed and hurried out. How embarrassing, how embarrassing!
If he tells his family when he gets home, they're going to laugh at him.
He just wants to disappear!
