I have been farming since I crossed over.

After Yang Mingyun successfully gave birth to the baby, Yang Mingxi and Wu prepared to return home.

Mrs. Wu looked at Yang Mingyun lying on the bed with a worried look on her face and said, "Ying'er, giving birth is such a big deal, and your mother-in-law won't come to see you? What are you going to do during the confinement period?"

Yang Mingyun smiled helplessly and said, "It's okay, Mom. The third brother said that he will take care of me at home for a few days. I can do it myself later. The eldest brother came here that way. At that time, he had to take care of a whole family. Now I just need to take care of the two babies."

Mrs. Wu looked at the weak Yang Mingyun, as if she was the one who came to take care of her personally during her confinement period.

But there are a lot of things to do at home, and the second son's wife is also in poor health. It is impossible for me to ignore my wife at home and come to serve my own daughter!

Mrs. Wu couldn't think of a good solution and just cried.

Yang Mingxi thought for a moment and said, "Let my brother-in-law go to the county and buy a maid. That way, my eldest sister will have an easier time."

Mrs. Wu quickly stood up and said, "Xi'er, how much does it cost to buy a maid? I'll pay for it."

As Wu spoke, she began to search for the silver and money she had on her.

Yang Mingyun's eyes also brightened. It would be good to buy a maid. She could help him with the housework and the vegetable garden would not be left uncultivated.

Yang Mingyun pretended not to care, but was actually concentrating on listening to Yang Mingxi's reply.

Yang Mingxi recalled that she didn't seem to know the price of buying people. In the past, she was responsible for selecting people and Lu Da paid the money.

Yang Mingxi smiled awkwardly and said, "I really don't know about that. It shouldn't be expensive, right? But I can't worry about that anymore. Let's just buy her back first!"

"Yeah, that's right. While we are still here, let's quickly call the third brother to buy people!" said Mrs. Wu.

As he said this, he took out all the silver he had on him and counted it twice.

Yang Mingxi reached into her sleeve and pulled out a ten-liang silver ingot, handing it to Wu, saying, "Mother, use this first! I'll go call my brother-in-law."

Gu Laosan is chopping wood in the yard, preparing to cook lunch!

Out of the corner of his eye, he saw Yang Mingxi coming out. He put away his axe and asked anxiously, "Xi'er, is your elder sister okay?"

"No, brother-in-law, I came to you to discuss something. Who will take care of my sister during her confinement?"

Gu Laosan was stunned after hearing this, then whispered, "I'll take care of Yun'er and take care of the snack street. I'll come back at mealtime to prepare food for Yun'er. She's suffered a lot and needs to be well nourished."

"Brother-in-law, confinement is not just about eating, you also have to take care of the baby. You can't be with me all the time!" Yang Mingxi said a little seriously.

"I know, but my mother won't come to take care of Yun'er during her confinement.

Besides, even if my mother came, she might still make Yun'er angry and ask Yun'er to serve her?" Gu Lao San said helplessly.

"I haven't thought about asking my own mother to come and serve my eldest sister. Let's discuss it. We will pay for it, and you can go and buy a maid to serve my eldest sister!"

Yang Mingxi didn't beat around the bush and went straight to the point.

Gu Lao San dropped the axe, rubbed his hands and said, "Why didn't I think of this? This is a good idea. This way, Yan'er can take good care of herself."

Gu Laosan talked to himself, as happy as if he had discovered a new world.

Seeing that Gu Laosan had no objection, Yang Mingxi softened her expression and said, "Brother-in-law, hurry up and go to Big Sister and ask her what kind of person she wants to buy. While we are still here, go and buy that person back!"

Gu Lao San muttered, "That's right. The main thing is that the person employed by Yan'er must be one that suits her. I'll go ask Yan'er's opinion right now."

After saying that, Gu Lao San went to Yang Mingyun's room happily.

Yang Mingxi held her forehead and said, "How could my brother-in-law just leave me, a grown man, and walk away? Sigh!"

Gu Laosan came to Yang Mingyun's room, folded his hands and said, "Ying'er, I'm going to buy a maid. What kind do you like?"

Yang Mingyun felt a little pain in his heart. Judging from Yang Mingxi's expression just now, a maid would cost at least ten taels of silver!

I've been saving for so long, and I've only saved a few dozen taels of silver. And now I've spent so much all at once! The money went by so quickly! It's not enough!

Gu Laosan looked at Yang Mingyun's pensive expression and said with a smile, "How about I take my mother to help you choose one?"

Yang Mingyun was shocked. His own mother was going?

Then shouldn't you buy the best for yourself? I'm afraid even fifteen taels might not be enough!

Thinking of this, Yang Mingyun said quickly: "I don't need someone who is particularly good. She just needs to have given birth to a child and know how to take care of people. The rest can be taught slowly."

Gu Lao San thought for a moment and said, "Okay, then I'll buy a maid who's a bit older and can do the housework."

Mrs. Wu interrupted, "We should buy someone who has experience and can cook well. This way, Yun'er will have a lot less trouble in the future."

Gu Laosan thought about it, nodded and said, "Okay, Mom, Xier, wait a moment, I'll be back soon!"

After Gu Laosan finished speaking, he hurried out of the yard.

In the vegetable garden in front of Gu Laosan's yard, Li Lin was helping to drain the water.

Li Lin brought his mother-in-law and Yang Mingxi over, and they went straight into the delivery room. As a man from outside the family, it was not convenient for him to stay in the yard.

Seeing that the vegetable garden was flooded, Li Lin took a hoe and dug a ditch to drain the water.

By the way, you can also see Gu Laosan's yard. If anything happens, you can help run errands.

Just now, Yang Mingxi came out to talk to Gu Laosan, and Li Lin was ready to come over, but the two of them said a few words and then went back to their room.

Li Lin watched Gu Laosan hurriedly come out of the room and ran out of the yard, shouting, "Brother-in-law, where are you going? I'll help you. Just look after my elder sister."

Only then did Gu Laosan remember that his brother-in-law was still here helping to run errands.

He probably doesn’t know that Ying’er has given birth!

He smiled and said, "Li Lin, your elder sister gave birth to a daughter for me, so I now have a daughter."

Li Lin smiled and congratulated, "Brother-in-law is so lucky! He now has a son and a daughter. Congratulations."

Gu Lao San waved his hands and said, "It's all thanks to Yan'er, I don't have any ability.

By the way, I'm going to the county to buy a maid to take care of your eldest sister during her confinement. I'll be right back!"

Li Lin looked at Gu Laosan's happy face, why did he feel a little unhappy?

Li Lin thought for a moment and said, "Brother-in-law, such a good life, how long do you plan to let us starve?

When I went to pick up my mother and Xier, they had just returned from Changping Village, right? "

Gu Laosan looked up at the sky, slapped his head and said, "Look, I'm so happy. It's already past noon, and I haven't had lunch yet? Let's have lunch first!"

"Dinner? Brother-in-law, have you prepared it? But I can't cook." Li Lin continued to pour cold water on him.

"Okay, it's done. When Yun'er just gave birth, I steamed some rice and stewed a chicken. I'll scoop out some chicken soup for Yun'er later. We'll add some vegetables and cook the chicken and we'll be ready to eat."

As Gu Laosan spoke, he walked towards the kitchen.
