Chapter 83 - 83

Chapter 83 The baby was born."Mom, I'm going out for a bit!" she whispered to her mother, not daring to let Yun Xu know, lest he follow her around like a shadow again.Yun Ting planned to go out for a while, using the excuse of retrieving some things from her spatial storage.She still has plenty of meat in her storage space! How can she buy just this little bit of pork?Come back soon."Okay..."Mother Yun didn't think much of it, assuming she just wanted to go out and have fun.Yun Ting disguised himself and went to findJiang Shaobai again, but this time not to sell goods." Sister Qian, is there some good stuff again?"Jiang Shaobai asked happily."What? Can't I contact you if there's no stock?"Yun Ting glanced at him."How could that be? If Sister Qian needs anything, just say the word, and I'll take care of it without hesitation.""Get me some pork legs, and do you know any ways to get me some piglets? Preferably both male and female."" Sister Qian, this is simple, leave it to me, but I might not be able to get many piglets."It just so happens that his brother-in-law works at the food station, and he heard that a batch of piglets had just been transferred back from the south, so this was just in time."It's okay, as long as we have both male and female.""Okay, I'll go ask for you later."Jiang Shaobai sent one of his underlings to get four pig legs for Yun Ting. Yun Ting was very satisfied, so he decided to try his best to get him some more before returning to Xiangyang Brigade.Thanks! I'll get you some more stock in a couple of days, but probably not much."Okay, it's good that we have it."At the end of the year, their goods sold very quickly, and of course, they made a lot of money.Jiang Shaobai didn't keep her waiting long. He went out and finalized the matter of the piglets.I got her four piglets, three males and one female, but I told her to come pick them up in the evening.Yun Ting found it amusing; this little piglet would be living a polyandrous life from now on, haha…Besides the pig's leg, she took out a chicken, a duck, and a goose from her spatial storage, put them in her basket, and took them all back with her.It has to be said that Yun Ting's timing was perfect. Yun Shu had already gone into labor and had been taken to the hospital. Everyone in the family except for Yun Zhao and his wife who were at home rushed to the hospital.Yun Ting only learned of this news when she got home."Brother, I'll go to the hospital to get checked out first."At the hospital, outside the delivery room, Jiang Dong, his parents, and Father Yun were present.Mother Yun and Yun Xu were both waiting anxiously.This is Yun Shu's first pregnancy, and it's been quite a struggle. Several hours have passed and she still hasn't given birth, so no one is in the mood to go back and cook the New Year's Eve dinner.Finally, around 8 p.m., the first baby's cry came from the delivery room. The sound was loud and clear. A few minutes later, another baby's cry came, slightly weaker."Oh dear...it's born...it's born."A little while later, two nurses, each carrying a baby, pushed open the door and came out." Comrade, how is my wife?" Jiang Dong rushed over and asked.Yun's family saw his actions and were extremely pleased."Congratulations, the mother is safe and sound, she has given birth to two healthy boys. The mother still needs to be observed for a while, and she will be able to go to the ward in a little while."Jiang's mother and Mother Yun were the first to each hold one of their beloved grandchildren."This is the eldest brother; the second brother has a small mole on the corner of his eyebrow."Grandpa and Grandpa on the other side were watching, looking like they wanted to hug him but were a little at a loss.Yun Ting looked at the two little babies, who were fair-skinned and tender, a little wrinkled, but still very cute.Yun Ting gently touched the faces of the two little ones and whispered, "My two little darlings, I'm your auntie."The two kids were sleeping soundly, completely oblivious to the people watching or talking around them.After Yun Ting and the others confirmed that their eldest sister was out of danger, they decided to go home. None of them had eaten yet! Today is Lunar New Year's Eve! It was already past eight o'clock.When Yun Huai returned home with Li Feng, he learned from Yun Zhao that his younger sister had given birth in the hospital. He was anxious to go to the hospital, and Yun Zhao couldn't dissuade him, so he let him go.Yun Zhao had steamed the rice and prepared all the ingredients at home, but he really didn't know how to cook! His wife did know a little, but how could he let her cook while she was heavily pregnant?Afraid that his wife and child would go hungry, he reluctantly cooked a bowl of noodles forLiang Dan to eat. To be honest, Liang Danwouldn't have wanted to eat it if she wasn't worried about the baby in her belly going hungry. It really didn't taste good at all!Yun Huai ran into her father and younger siblings on the way."Second brother, did you just get back? How did you get hurt? Is it serious?" Yun Ting rushed over and started rummaging around."Hey, little sister, don't move. You'll hurt yourself even if you were fine before.""Hehe~ I was just too excited, wasn't I?"" Li Feng, this is my dad, my younger brother, and my younger sister.""Dad, little sister, little brother, this is my comrade-in-arms, Li Feng."Yun Huai gave everyone a brief introduction, and after they said goodbye, they headed home.Yun Huai was originally going to visit Yun Shuand Child, but Yun Ting said that they would go back later to make something to eat and then go together, and deliver it to them as well."Second brother, you didn't actually come back from the army, did you?"As soon as Yun Ting spoke, Father Yun and Yun Xu immediately looked at him."What nonsense are you talking about? I'm on leave to recover from an injury, don't you understand?""That's good, that proves the arm isn't broken."Yun Ting breathed a sigh of relief.Yun Huai: "..."His adorable little sister, how can she say something so... speechless.Back home, Yun Ting went to the kitchen to get busy. No matter how late it was, they had to eat New Year's Eve dinner!Yun Huai originally wanted to help in the kitchen, but Yun Ting shooed him out with a look of disdain. She didn't say anything directly, but just glanced at his still-hanging arm, her eyes seeming to say, "Don't you have any self-awareness?"Li Feng, being quite perceptive, went in to help.Yun Ting, seeing that he was doing a decent job, allowed him and Yun Xu to assist her as the head chef.Yun Ting cooked some millet porridge for her eldest sister and planned to steam some egg drop soup. She said the pig's trotters should rest for a couple of days; they had just given birth, and too much oil wouldn't be good.Their New Year's Eve dinner included braised pork, chicken stew with mushrooms, braised ribbonfish, stir-fried cabbage, and rice with mixed grains as the staple food. It was considered a feast for that era, and Yun Tingalways prepared large portions.The ribbonfish was bought by Mother Yun fromthe Supply and Marketing Cooperative a couple of days ago. As for the chicken, duck and goose that Yun Ting brought back, the chicken was cooked, but the duck and goose will be left for now."How about this? Let's pack up the portion for my older sister and brother-in-law in lunchboxes and send it to them. Then we can invite Uncle Jiang, Aunt Jiang, and Mom to come back for New Year's Eve dinner together," Yun Tingsuggested."Alright, then hurry up and go! Ah Xu, you go with your second sister," Father Yun instructed."Dad, I'll go with my little sister, and we can also see Child and Xiao Shu." Yun Huai couldn't sit still. He'd become an uncle, but he'd never met his two little nephews before! Besides, he was quite concerned about his older sister."Then I'll go too," Yun Xu said.In the end, the three siblings went together.When they arrived at the hospital, they took out the millet porridge and steamed eggs for the older sister and Jiang Dong's meal for them. After showing their affection for the two babies, they went back to eat together.Jiang's parents weren't the type to be coy; theyhad always gotten along well as in-laws and were both reasonable people. Since they said they had prepared a meal at home, they didn't refuse.Although the New Year's Eve dinner was postponed, everyone enjoyed the meal immensely today because of the happy occasion in the family.Although the portions were quite large, there were too many people! In the end, Yun Ting put a small iron pot on the coal stove and made a simple hot pot, so there was no need to worry about not having enough to eat.
