"Really! Even though the baby is in the belly, she can still hear our voices. As long as we talk to her more, she will remember our voices."

"Then I'll talk to her more, and when she comes out she'll know who her father is."

After saying this, the uncle smiled happily at his wife's belly and said, "Baby, I am your daddy. Remember! Don't forget your daddy's voice when the time comes!"

"Ha ha..."

The whole family was amused by Song Ziwu's honest appearance.

"Yun Ran, didn't Yun Xi come back with you?"

Song Yunran looked at Song's slightly worried eyes and said, "Mom, my second sister needs to help look after the shop!"

In order not to worry the Song family, Song Yunran lied. After all, you can't say that your children have broken up and are hiding in the city to recuperate!

Song was still a little worried: "Last time she suddenly said she wanted to go to the city to help you, I felt something was wrong, but she didn't want to say it."

"Mom, my second sister is fine! You think too much!"

"I'm glad you're okay! You haven't eaten yet! Mom will make you something to eat." Song felt relieved after hearing what she said, and turned to ask her if she had had lunch.

Song Yunran, who indeed hadn't eaten yet, didn't hesitate: "Mom, I want to eat egg noodles."

"Okay! Mommy will make it for you."

Song's eyes were full of doting. She patted Song Yunran's hand and got up to go to the kitchen.

Song Yunran also took this opportunity to check her aunt-in-law's pulse and made sure that both the adult and the baby were healthy before happily returning to her room to wait for food.

The next morning, Song Yunran started to inspect the mountain. He first went to see the fruit trees that he asked his uncle to plant last time. There were more than 200 trees in total, and basically all of them survived, with a very high survival rate.

Now the whole mountain has been planted with fruits according to her request, especially papaya and mango, which are growing very well, with lush branches and leaves. It feels that there will be a good harvest next year.

Then we went to the reservoir. The person who raises fish in the reservoir now is Uncle Daxing. When the village chief said he was looking for someone, Uncle Daxing was the first to step forward and take on the job.

When Song Yunran found Uncle Daxing, he was feeding the fish in the reservoir. There were aquatic plants all around, and he just needed to cut some and throw them into the reservoir.

The reservoir was built according to the drawings she brought back last time. All the excess grass in the reservoir was removed, and a wooden house was built not far away. The fish feed would be stored in this wooden house.

There is also a room where people can live, and if there are special circumstances, they can stay here for a day or two.

The upstream and downstream of the reservoir are blocked with tree trunks and bamboo poles, and the grass carp is located in the middle so that the fry will not escape.

When it was first built, all the men in the village except the Bai family came to help.

Moreover, he didn't charge her a penny. He even said that when the things were made, he would raise fish and sell the money. Song Yunran would use the money to buy paper and pens for her own children, so how could he accept her money!

Everyone laughed and said that if they collected the money, they would probably be struck by lightning, so after finishing their work, the villagers went home all wet.

Grandpa and his companions took the silver they had prepared and thanked the villagers with emotion, thinking to themselves: Yun Ran did not help them in vain, he has a conscience.

"Uncle Daxing, thank you for your hard work!" Song Yunran greeted Daxing who had just come ashore with a smile.

Daxing was as shy as ever, smiling and shaking his head: "No, it's not hard!"

"Uncle Daxing, I have something to ask you. How long does it take to raise this fish to about two kilograms?"

"When I buy these fry, I always pick the biggest ones, so it's not a big deal to get them to 2 kilograms. In a few months, I think they'll be 2 kilograms before the end of the year."

Song Yunran smiled in surprise and asked, "So fast?"

I thought it would take one to two years to grow it, but I didn't expect it would only take half a year.

"Then we have to thank Daxing a lot. He was the one who bought the fry and has been raising them ever since. He has taken really good care of them."

The uncle smiled and patted Daxing on the shoulder, praising him non-stop until he felt embarrassed.

"Uncle Daxing, thank you!"

Song Yunran thanked Daxing sincerely and was thinking about how to thank him, but apart from giving him more silver, there seemed to be no better gift of thanks.

"You're welcome. It's my duty. I'm taking the wages you gave me!"

Daxing was also very grateful to Song Yunran. He now earned eight taels of silver a month, which was much more than when he worked for other families before. After all, he only earned five taels a year before, but now he can earn eight taels a month.

Ever since I started helping her, our family's conditions have improved. We now have enough money to renovate the house, and my mother doesn't have to work so hard anymore.

In the past, our family could not eat meat once a month, but now we can eat meat almost every day.

So every time Song Yunran needed help with some work, he would always be the first to step forward and take responsibility.

"Uncle Daxing, are you satisfied with your current monthly salary?"

Song Yunran wanted to give him a raise, but was afraid that he would not accept it because he was too honest.

"Satisfied, very satisfied!"

When talking about his eight taels of monthly salary, Daxing nodded happily and even wanted to say that it seemed like he had more than enough to spend.

Song Yunran looked at his dark face, smiling so hard that his teeth were showing, and she couldn't help but smile.

"That's good! I'll trouble you to give me the reservoir and the broad beans."

"Don't worry! I will do my best."

Song Yunran smiled and nodded, then walked down the mountain with his uncle and Nanxing, and stopped by to take a look at the broad bean field.

The people Uncle Daxing found were now watering the broad beans. They were all busy and sweating profusely. Song Yunran did not go up to disturb them. After making sure that the broad beans were all good, he went back home.

"Nanxing, raise Uncle Daxing's salary to ten taels a month. From now on, he will be in charge of the reservoir and the broad beans. Also, tell Uncle Daxing that if the people he recruits do a good job, he can give them a raise."

While walking home, Song Yunran explained things to Nanxing behind him.

Then he turned to his uncle and said, "Uncle, I will trouble you to take care of the fruit trees on this mountain. You will be responsible for them from now on. Since my aunt is about to give birth, I will not assign you so much work."

Song Yunran was afraid that her uncle would think too much. After all, she had given the work to outsiders instead of him.

In fact, it’s not that she doesn’t believe in her uncle’s ability, but she is considering that her aunt is about to give birth, and it is impossible for her aunt to do everything by herself after the baby is born.

She thought that her uncle was the father, and it would be best for him and his aunt to participate in many of the child's affairs together, so she reduced his work so that he could spend more time with the child and his aunt.

As a modern person, she strongly advocates that both parents should accompany their children at the same time. If after giving birth, the man does not care about anything and the mother takes all the responsibilities, won't the woman suffer from depression?
