Chapter 203 The Wu Family Adds a New Baby

Ever since Yang Mingxi got engaged, her family's fortunes seemed to have been blessed by God, and all kinds of good things happened to them one after another.

It was the eighth day of the fifth lunar month, a sunny day with a gentle breeze. Yang Mingxi's family was busy picking bitter melons. The Wu family's uncles also helped pick the melons so that Lu Changdong could take them to the beach and onto the boat.

In the melon field, large, round, green bitter melons are hidden among the lush vines, emitting an enticing fragrance.

Just when everyone was working happily, they saw Uncle Wu Si coming trotting over in a hurry. Before he even found his footing, he couldn't wait to shout loudly: "Old Five! Old Five! Your wife has given birth to another big fat boy for you!" Upon hearing this, everyone stopped what they were doing and looked at Uncle Wu Si curiously.

It turned out that both my fourth and fifth aunts had given birth one after the other, and each had given birth to a baby boy. Fourth Uncle Wu had come to tell Fifth Uncle Wu the news and urged him to go home quickly to see his newborn son.

Upon hearing this good news, Uncle Wu couldn't help but smile, because his own wife was also pregnant, and it was said that his third brother's wife was also pregnant. This meant that the family was full of happy events!

Mrs. Wu was grinning from ear to ear, secretly delighted. With a new member now added to her family, the clan was growing even stronger. Furthermore, with their current prosperity and better living conditions, raising more children was a piece of cake. For Mrs. Wu, the more children, the better. After all, a large family was a symbol of a prosperous and flourishing family!

Uncle Wu Wu sat down heavily on the ground like a deflated ball, looking listless and dejected. He kept mumbling, "Oh my god, what's going on? Why is it another boy? Oh my God, my beloved sweet little girl, where have you gone? Why won't you come to our house?"

Seeing this, Uncle Wu Da glared at Uncle Wu Wu fiercely, then raised his foot and kicked him lightly, shouting angrily: "Get out of here! Stop saying these irrelevant and lame words here! Your fifth brother's wife went through so much trouble to carry this child for ten months, it was not easy for her! How can you be so picky here? Look at your little achievements, you really think you are so capable!"

After scolding Fifth Uncle Wu, First Uncle Wu's expression instantly brightened. With a broad smile on his face, he turned to look at Fourth Uncle Wu standing beside him and asked expectantly, "Fourth Uncle, has your wife given birth yet? What's the baby? Could it be the girl we've all been waiting for?"

Uncle Wu Si was originally watching the excitement with great interest, with a relaxed smile on his face. However, at this moment, his desire to watch the fun was instantly blown away by a sudden cold wind.

At this moment, he was filled with depression and helplessness, and even had the urge to curse. The reason was simple, because his own child was also a naughty and mischievous boy, unlike other families who had a well-behaved, cute, sweet and soft little girl.

Fourth Uncle Wu looked dejected, as if all the strength in his body had been drained. He said weakly, "Alas, my son is also a bad boy, but fortunately, he is quite honest and didn't give his mother much trouble. Unlike your son, he really gave Fifth Brother's wife a hard time! Fifth Brother, you should go home and take a look!"

When Wu Wu heard this, his heart suddenly tightened and his face turned anxious. He quickly put the bitter melon he had just picked into the basket and said hurriedly, "Oh, sister, I'm going to go back and see your fifth brother's wife first. I hope nothing's wrong. I'm going to go back and see what that brat has done to his mother. I'll give him a good beating!" After saying that, he turned around and rushed out the door.

At this time, Yang Laowu hurriedly shouted, "Hurry up! Xier, go and get some of our brown sugar and eggs and bring them to your two uncles. We'll go visit them in a few days."

Yang Mingxi heard her father's instructions, responded, and quickly walked into the kitchen. A moment later, she ran out with a bag of brown sugar eggs wrapped in cloth. She handed the things to her two uncles and said politely, "Uncles, please walk slowly and be careful on the road."

Uncle Wu looked at his two anxious and fidgeting brothers, shook his head slightly, reached out and gently smoothed his slightly messy hair, and said slowly, "Why are you so anxious? This isn't your first time being a father! And the child you gave birth to is just a brat. Let's finish picking the bitter melons soon, and then we can go back together. We still have to continue picking our own bitter melons tomorrow!"

Hearing his eldest brother's words, Uncle Wu couldn't help but laugh. He scratched his head and responded, "Brother, please stop complaining! If we brothers work together, we can definitely finish this job easily. But I'm afraid I won't be able to go back with you tomorrow because the kiln is still firing bricks. If I'm not there to keep an eye on it, it will be difficult to deal with if something goes wrong."

Upon hearing this, Uncle Wu turned to look at Uncle Wu San, his eyes revealing a hint of understanding and concern. He patted Uncle Wu San's shoulder and said soothingly, "Third brother, just focus on your work. We've got you covered back home! Don't worry, it's just a small task, and we can definitely handle it."

At this time, Yang Mingxi, who had been standing by and listening quietly, also interrupted with a smile: "That's right, Third Uncle, don't worry. Our family will go to grandma's house to help tomorrow, there will be no problem." After she finished speaking, her bright big eyes flashed with confidence and determination.

Uncle Wu San looked at Yang Mingxi with a smile, his eyes full of kindness, and said cheerfully, "Oh my, that's really great! If you could go over and help me, I'd feel much more at ease! But, Xier, I heard that the Lu family's school should have been completed a long time ago. Why do they need so many bricks and tiles? Is there some other big project going on?"

Yang Mingxi frowned slightly, and after thinking for a while, the figures of the group of people who returned with Lu Jintang appeared in her mind.

The corners of her mouth curled up slightly, revealing a relieved smile, and she responded, "Third uncle, you may not know that the Lu family was once a prestigious general's family! They have many soldiers who were disabled or retired due to injuries in battle. Now that they have returned here with Lu Jintang, we have to arrange a place for them to stay, right? So, we have to build some houses for them to live in."
