Chapter 553 Disgraced (5)_1
However, this year’s farming season, Pei Qin had basically stayed indoors.
Supervisor Chen was looking after Tian Zhuang, so there was no need for her to keep an eye on the wheat harvest or the planting of corn and soybeans. And by the Pai Building, nearly a hundred acres of sweet potatoes had been planted in March, it was still not time to harvest them. There were also several dozen acres of spring soybeans that weren’t ready to mature.
In the sweltering heat that seemed to fry the air, Pei Qin preferred the cool indoors and had no desire to step outside.
As the farming season was nearly over and Zhang Shiqian still hadn’t found the opportunity to make his move, his anxiety grew.
At last, the family was finished with their urgent work, and Sun Xiujin hurried over to her maternal family with her daughter, only to see that Shi Qian hadn’t succeeded, and she was anything but pleased. Were they all fools? Was it so difficult to administer some drug and induce her premature labor?
Carrying her daughter over for a visit to see how Pei Qin was doing, she wanted to use the same old trick and invite her out for mung bean jelly.
"I can make mung bean jelly at home, and going out to eat means traveling so far," Pei Qin said, growing lazy nowadays and unwilling to go outside in the scorching weather.
"But it feels different eating it outside than when you make it at home! You still owe me a serving of mung bean jelly!" Sun Xiujin looked at her with a smiling face.
