Among them, Wang Dashan and his father were in one group, the Liu brothers were in another group, and Qin Xiaoyao’s two brothers were in a third group.

The area they were assigned to was the best, located in the town center district forming the largest area.

It was also because of this that the Qin brothers’ bean sprouts always sold out the fastest.

If they really tried their best to sell them, the amount they could sell in a day would definitely be much more than what they could sell now.

“I can’t increase the quantity now. Even if I do additional planting now, it’ll take four days before I can increase the quantity for you.” Qin Xiaoyao smiled and turned her brothers’ request down.

“Moreover, the situation in the town is getting increasingly more tense. It’s better for us to take it easy with this business.”

“Just go and sell in the morning. It’s better if you two don’t go out in the afternoon.”

Given the current situation, the bandits might very well break into the town tomorrow.

For the time being, Qin Xiaoyao was really not planning to plant more bean sprouts.

As for the future, she would wait until the bandit trouble had blown over.

At that point, she definitely would grow more bean sprouts to sell even without her two brothers mentioning it.

Vegetables were in short supply during winter. Qin Xiaoyao was hoping to use up the few thousand catties of bean seeds at home during this winter.

Qin Dahu and Qin Erhu exchanged glances with each other and nodded. They didn’t press their younger sister.

Qin Xiaoyao then mentioned to the two that they should bring firewood home.

The two brothers were not willing to take the firewood for free, but Qin Xiaoyao refused to accept money.

She then brought up the excuse of taking care of her father, her eldest nephew, and her unborn nephew or niece before she managed to convince her two brothers.

“When you have used up the firewood, come here and get some more. I have a lot of firewood at home, so don’t let your family suffer,” Qin Xiaoyao continued.

The two brothers exchanged glances again and finally nodded at Qin Xiaoyao.

Their eyes were filled with gratitude.

After that, Qin Xiaoyao brought the two of them to the woodshed to get the firewood.

After sending her two brothers off, Qin Xiaoyao finally remembered that she hadn’t returned to her maiden family’s house for a long time.

When she thought of the impending bandit trouble, Qin Xiaoyao decided to bring some things back to her maiden family’s house when she was free in the afternoon.

Therefore, after lunch, Qin Xiaoyao asked Wang Xiaomei for help and started to get busy in the kitchen.

What were they busy with?

They were busy baking pancakes, of course.

Pancakes were great as they could be stored for a long time.

With the chili sauce and preserved egg, not only could they stave off hunger, but they also tasted great.

This time, Qin Xiaoyao went all out and baked three large sacks of pancakes.

Each sack was filled with almost a hundred pancakes.

Qin Xiaoyao left two sacks of pancakes at home and put the other sack into the bamboo backpack.

After that, she took out two jars of chili sauce, 60 century eggs, and two chunks of cured meat.

Only when the bamboo backpack was full did she take out a piece of cloth to cover it.

Qin Xiaoyao then carried the bamboo backpack and returned to her maiden family’s home.

When she reached the Qin family’s house, other than Eldest Sister-in-law Qin, who had brought Xiaohu out for milk-feeding, the rest of the family was there.

When they saw Qin Xiaoyao carrying so many things, the members of the Qin family were all shocked.

Qin Dazhuang was the first to recover from his shock. He turned to look at his daughter with a worried expression.

“Docs your mother-in-law know that you brought so many things here?” His tone was stern.

His daughter had helped them time after time.

In the past, she sold them food at a low price or shoved money to them.

Now, when food supply was scarce, she had brought over such a big basket of food.

“She knows.” Qin Xiaoyao smiled brightly.

“Mother even asked me to bring more.”

“It’s just that this bamboo backpack can’t hold anymore. Otherwise, I was prepared to put two more chunks of cured meat.”

“Second Sister-in-law is going to give birth soon. At that point, she needs to nourish her body.”

Her maiden family had no lack of meat in the past, but it had been a long time since her father and brothers slaughtered pigs.

If they didn’t slaughter pigs at home, there would be no meat.

During this period, Qin Xiaoyao noticed that the complexions of her sisters-in-law and the rest seemed worse.

Upon hearing this, Qin Dazhuang’s expression finally relaxed somewhat.

“Your mother-in-law is too embarrassed to say too much,” he said.

“I’ll let it go this time, but don’t send anything over in the future.”

In the past, he had looked down on the Song family and felt that it was unfair for his daughter to marry into the Song family.

From the looks of things, his daughter’s mother-in-law was quite easy to talk to and treated his daughter well.

In the end, Qin Dazhuang was wrong about them.

It was also fortunate that his daughter had insisted on marrying into the Song family, and that was why she had a good marriage with his son-in-law now.

“Hehe! We’ll talk about it next time,” Qin Xiaoyao replied cheekily.

Qin Dazhuang looked at her helplessly but he didn’t say anything more.

Qin Xiaoyao told her second brother to follow his wife’s instructions to put the things away.

Then she chatted with her father and big brother for a while.

Following that, she stayed at the Qin family’s house for dinner.

After the meal, she chatted with her family for a while again before returning home under the moonlight.

On the way, Qin Xiaoyao encountered a beggar who blocked her way with the intention to rob her.

Qin Xiaoyao naturally wasn’t afraid of him.

She immediately taught the beggar a lesson and chased him away before continuing on her way home.

When she got home, she told Song Que the news.

He immediately ordered his wife not to stay outside at night again.

Qin Xiaoyao knew that her husband was worried about her, so she happily agreed to obey him.

“Second Sister-in-law and Big Girl are about to give birth soon.”

“There’s Aunt Liu and her own mother to look after Big Girl, so it shouldn’t be a big problem.”

“But for Second Sister-in-law, Eldest Sister-in-law has to work and look after Xiaohu. I’m afraid she won’t be able to cope with taking care of Second Sister-in-law.”

“Second Brother told me today that he hoped that I could go back and help at the critical moment,” Qin Xiaoyao said to Song Que as she took off her shoes and got into bed.

Thinking of the possibility of bandits appearing at any time, Song Que frowned. “Then you’ll have to take extra care,” he finally said.

“Mm-hmm!” Qin Xiaoyao smiled and pulled Song Que over to hug him.

“Thank you for your support, Hubby. I’ll be careful and not let anything happen to me,” she answered, touched by his concern.

Song Que’s heart started racing, but he stopped struggling in her arms.

“Since your second brother has requested your help, then you should pay more attention. Help to arrange for a midwife in advance. It’s best to let the midwife live directly in the Qin family’s house,” Song Que said.

Once the bandit trouble started, they might kill people after entering the town.

At that point, all the houses would be locked up and no one would go out.

It would not be easy to get the midwife to go out again.

“Or, why don’t we spend some money to hire someone to take care of your second sister-in-law at the Qin family? It’ll save you the trouble of going over,” Song Que continued.

He was still worried about his wife’s safety.

Qin Xiaoyao let go of her husband.

“We must definitely make arrangements for the midwife in advance, but we can forget about hiring outsiders. Second Brother will definitely not accept that.” Otherwise, her second brother would not have asked for her help.

When she saw Song Que frowning again, Qin Xiaoyao couldn’t help but reach out to stroke his eyebrows.

“Don’t worry. With my martial skills, I have not encountered anyone who can hurt me.”

“If the bandits really bump into me, it is their bad luck!”

Song Que’s expression was grim. When he recalled his wife’s ability to hurt people by shooting leaves, he finally nodded.

“Tomorrow, go to the textile shop and buy some more cloth back. Get Mother to make a few sets of men’s clothes for you, Yun’er, and Wang Xiaomei,” he continued.

His wife had changed a lot in the past six months.

Not only was she not fat anymore, but her figure was also curvaceous and very striking.

Coupled with her beautiful face, she was simply too attractive..
