Chapter 62

  Ji Congzhe heard movement on the large wooden cabinet at the entrance of the stairs. He opened his eyes and raised his head to look over there.

  Lin Zhen was seen standing on the large wooden cabinet, doing something on the beam above with both hands.

  "What are you doing?"

  Lin Zhen didn't look back and said, "Put out rat poison."

  "Oh." Ji Congzhe sat up, yawned and stretched. He used to feel that he could be as good as Lin Zhen in bed, but now his back hurts within two seconds.

  After he got dressed, Lin Zhen also put away the rat poison.

  "Breakfast is ready. Go wash your face and brush your teeth."

  "Um."

  Halfway through breakfast, Chen Hu called everyone outside the door, "Uncle Yang Lin Zhen, are you done? We are going to line up."

  "Right away!" Lin Zhen shouted from inside the room. He picked up the bowl and finished the rice quickly. When he stood up, he said to Ji Congzhe, "Eat slowly, I'm going to squeeze the sweet potatoes."

  "Go ahead."

  After Lin Zhen followed Chen Hu and the others, Ji Congzhe finished the meal slowly by himself, washed the bowls, and fed a group of chickens.

  He had nothing to do in the morning, so he was going to use the remaining wool to crochet a children's hat. He first went to Wang Xiaoyan and asked her to help with the needle and crocheted a circle around the edge of the hat.

  Wang Xiaoyan gave him a crochet pattern book, which detailed the number of stitches in each circle and the hooking method. This was really convenient for Ji Congzhe.

  The sun was nice today, so he took his notebook, moved a chair, and sat under the eaves of the porch to hook up his hat.

  Seeing this, Wang Xiaoyan also moved a chair to sit outside and hooked up a pair of shoes.

  Ji Congzhe glanced at her huge belly and asked, "When will you give birth?"

  This is the disadvantage of not having a prenatal check-up. Pregnancy and childbirth are all based on guesswork. Wang Xiaoyan thought for a while, "I guess it will be in the middle of next month."

  "Then where do you plan to give birth?"

  Wang Xiaoyan smiled and said, "I will give birth at home. The midwife has already agreed in advance. Xiao Ji, I heard that you are going to the hospital to give birth?"

  "hold head high."

  Wang Xiaoyan said with envy, "Lin Zhen still loves you."

  At almost noon, Lin Zhen and the others came back with the snakeskin bag. Ji Congzhe opened the snakeskin bag and saw that it was full of sweet potato dregs. He wondered, "Why did you bring the dregs back? Didn't you mean to squeeze the sweet potato flour?"

  Lin Zhen explained, "The machine over there squeezes the sweet potatoes into pulp. You have to make the sweet potato powder yourself. It's okay. I'll learn from them."

  After lunch, Lin Zhen went to the next door to ask. After returning to the house, he took out the nylon gauze and went to the well with the lead bucket and sweet potatoes.

  Ji Congzhe was not sleepy this afternoon, so he went to take a look.

  Several neighbors were there. When they saw that Lin Zhen was bringing a lead bucket, they said, "Lin Zhen, lead buckets can't do it. You have to bring a wooden bucket."
