Su Xiaowan smiled and nodded, "Yes, these are all off-season vegetables, and only greenhouses can guarantee the temperature."

"Well, it will probably take some time for you to finish this."

Zhang Haijiao looked at the greenhouses that were taller than people and said, "You'll have to get bamboo and wooden stakes later. That's going to be a lot of work."

"The weather isn't very good these days, so if you want to do it, you'd better hurry up."

Su Xiaowan nodded, "I will buy the film in the next two days, and then I will cover it when it is ready."

"Okay, then you do it first, I'll go back and cook."

Zhang Haijiao didn't say anything more and walked home carrying the hoe.

After the people left, Su Ting finally said what she had been holding back for the entire afternoon.

"Xiao Wan, what do you think this Zhang Haijiao means? Is this a show of affection for you?"

"I feel a little bit, as if she really wants to have a good relationship with me."

Su Xiaowan also didn't understand.

"Don't you think she has set her sights on your business? Wait until you trust her, and then do something about it, right?"

"That's unlikely. Not to mention that she's pregnant. Even if she's not, if she really does something, she'll be in big trouble if she's caught."

Su Xiaowan disagreed, "I think she really wants to improve the relationship between the two families."

"What do you mean?" Su Ting was puzzled.

"I was just thinking about the time when I had a party at my new house and she and my eldest brother came in person to bring gifts. Do you know how much she gave?"

Su Xiaowan held up five fingers, "Fifty!"

"So many!" Su Ting was shocked.

"Well, I was planning to ask Beiguo to take the money back to her, but she gave it to me in front of so many people. If I just give it back like that, it definitely won't work."

"So you plan to give it to her when she gives birth?"

"Well, no matter what she is thinking, I definitely can't take this money."

Fifty dollars can last an average family for several months!

"Indeed, let's wait and see. If she really wants to make friends, there's no need for us to be so unkind. No matter what, Beiguo and Zhiguo are brothers. Even if we break bones, we are still connected."

"If Zhang Haijiao can control this person, it won't be a bad thing. This family will see each other every day in the future. There's no need to make things so awkward."

"Yes, I know, Sister Ting, that's what I mean."

The two sisters packed up their tools. Su Ting saw Xiao Beiguo coming over with the cow and said with a smile, "Then I'll go back first. You guys should go back quickly too."

"Okay, Sister Ting."

Su Xiaowan walked towards Xiao Beiguo carrying a water bottle. Seeing that he was wearing a base shirt and had a lot of sweat on his face, she hurried over.

Hand over the kettle, "Drink some water."

Xiao Beiguo took it and drank it in big gulps. He had hardly drunk any water the whole afternoon and felt tired and thirsty.

"I'll get up tomorrow morning and plow up the rest of the dirt, then help get the soil out."

Xiao Beiguo reached out and cleaned off the dirt that Su Xiaowan had gotten on her body at some point.

"After you finish this land, go to Zhiwei's place to get bamboo. We still need a lot of wooden stakes and bamboo here, which will take some time."

"The weather is getting worse day by day. If it rains, it will be even more difficult to deal with."

Xiao Beiguo took a look at the land and agreed, "Okay, then I'll go get some bamboo with Zhiwei tomorrow."

"Let Zigui cut the bamboo, and you do the lighter work. He's a grown man, and he needs to do more work to use his strength."

Xiao Bei pinched her face with some amusement, "Zigui has been very diligent these days. During the time when we were away, he did the work of two people alone and worked until eleven o'clock at night."

"real or fake."

Su Xiaowan was very shocked. Is this still her brother?

"Zhiwei said that, do you think it could be false?"

"A few days ago, Dad was not feeling well, so Zhaodi came back in the evening to cook and so on. Zigui was worried about Xixi, so he urged Zhaodi to go home before five o'clock."

"This kid is promising now, but he has to do this. You just had surgery and you're plowing the fields today. The doctor said you can't get too tired."

Su Xiaowan was really worried because he had bled so much before.

"It's okay. I'll watch over it. Let Zigui do more. Now is the time to do something. It's impossible not to do it."

Xiao Beiguo was aware of his own body. He only felt a little uncomfortable on the day after the operation, but now he doesn't feel anything.

"That's right, I'll talk to Zigui later."

Xiao Beiguo didn't say much and took her home. The sun had already set and the two of them were strolling on the path. The buffalo behind them was wagging its tail with a leisurely look on its face.

"Is this cow locked up in our house tonight?"

"Well, we have some straw at home. Give him some. When we're done tomorrow morning, I'll take him to the mountain. There's some grass over there."

Su Xiaowan nodded and let him hold her hand. Neither of them talked much, but it didn't feel awkward at all.

After returning home, Su Xiaowan prepared dinner. After eating, she cleaned up and gave Xixi a bath.

When I was about to take a shower, Su Zigui's voice came from outside.

"Brother-in-law, where is my sister?"

"Why are you looking for me in the middle of the night and not sleeping?" Su Xiaowan came out with some clean clothes.

"I'm not worried about you. I came to take a look. I'll go back if you're okay."

Su Zigui looked uneasy and handed her the thing in his hand. "This is a pheasant dove that I caught when I went to the mountains to do some work. You can stew it and eat it with my brother-in-law. It will nourish your body."

"Did you catch all these?" Su Xiaowan looked at the bag of pheasants and turtledoves and couldn't help laughing, "You didn't catch them specially because you were worried about us, did you?"

Su Zigui's thoughts were seen through, and he scratched his head unnaturally, "No, it's cold, these birds are out looking for food, so they are easy to catch."

"Then I'll accept it. Ask Zhiwei to come over for dinner tomorrow night and I'll make something delicious for you."

Su Xiaowan took the bag and saw that he hadn't left yet, so she asked again, "Are you not going back yet?"

"Go back and take care of yourself. You have lost weight in the past few days."

Su Zigui said this and ran away.

Looking at Su Zigui who still looked like a child, Su Xiaowan's eyes were filled with smile.

It seems that Su Zigui leaving his father is not as bad as imagined.

"Give this to me, go take a shower first." Xiao Beiguo went to the yard carrying the bag.

Su Xiaowan lay down after taking a shower. The day was getting colder, and even after taking a shower, she still felt cold.

Xiao Beiguo came in after taking a shower. Looking at Su Xiaowan curled up in the quilt, he couldn't help but laugh and said, "It's so cold? How about I go and heat the kang?"

"No need. You have such a big stove, and it takes a lot of firewood to heat the kang."

It's only December now. By January, it will really be burning all day and night.

Xiao Beiguo got on the kang and looked at the petite woman who rolled into his arms. His heart couldn't help but soften.

Holding the person tightly, smelling that familiar scent, feeling satisfied and excited.

"Xiao Wan, are you tired?"

"It's okay. I'm not too tired. What do you want to tell me?"

"Is that possible?" Xiao Beiguo asked suggestively.

He hadn't done this for a long time since he was hospitalized. He had this thought last night, but he was worried that Su Xiaowan would be unhappy, so he endured it and didn't say it.
