Traveling through the famine, I stockpiled supplies like crazy

Chapter 277: Poor card skills and worse luck

"That's great! I'm waiting." Yunhua said happily.

"Okay, I'll let you know when it's ready."

"Wife, you are being unfair. You have never offered to brew strong liquor for me in such a long time." Lu Chuan said jealously.

"Oh, isn't it because of the natural disasters before that the actual situation does not allow it? After I give birth to the baby, I will concentrate on studying these things for you." Xu Han said softly.

When Lu Chuan heard Xu Han say this, he put on a smiling face again.

In fact, Xu Han had never thought about this before. If Yunhua hadn't said this today, she wouldn't have thought of making strong liquor.

There are quite a lot of types of wine in this era, including various fruit wines, white wines, and rice wines, but the alcohol content is not high, so you can really try making them.

Even if he didn't sell it, his family could drink it. Xu Han didn't plan to make money from this. Business was too tiring, and he didn't need money, so he didn't think about it.

But if he could make money from this, by selling houses or cooperating with others, Xu Han would still be very happy. After all, who would really dislike having too much money?

Although there were only a few dishes in this hotpot, everyone enjoyed it very much.

After dinner, they gathered together to chat again. Xu Han was in a good mood today. Seeing that there were just four of them, she took out the mahjong that had been gathering dust for a long time.

Yunhua and Zhao Yunyun have never been exposed to these things. They are both busy people and have no time to play with these things.

In addition, the two of them didn't know how to play Xu Han, so Grandpa Zhao began to explain the rules and teach them how to play mahjong.

Lu Chuan, Xu Han, Yun Hua, and Zhao Yunyun sat at a table, playing mahjong while teaching the two people the rules.

After one round, both of them were familiar with the rules, so Xu Han suggested playing for money.

It's a game that costs a few cents per round, and it's mainly for livening up the game.

Xu Han was the happiest one playing mahjong today, as he was finally not the loser this time.

Yunhua was the one who lost money the whole night. Even Zhao Yunyun, who was also a novice, won money, but Yunhua never won a single hand and kept losing. Not only were his cards bad, but his card skills were even worse.

Grandpa Zhao, who was sitting nearby, watched Yunhua play cards and was so angry that he slapped his thigh and kept complaining about how some people could have bad card skills and even worse luck.

Yunhua, who lost the mahjong game tonight, began to doubt his life, but Yunhua is the type of person who is not good at playing but loves to play.

In the end, all the money was lost and it was already past eleven o'clock in the evening.

Seeing that it was indeed getting late, Lu Chuan suggested that they stop here for the day.

Yunhua wanted to continue, but was directly rejected by Lu Chuan. It was not until he promised to continue tomorrow that Yunhua reluctantly agreed.

After returning to the room, Lu Chuan massaged Xu Han's calves and said, "Are you tired today?"

"It's okay, but I'm very happy today." Xu Han said, rubbing his sore shoulders.

"I shouldn't have let you play mahjong with me for so long. Look, you're the one who suffers in the end." Lu Chuan said with a hint of complaint.

"Isn't everyone so happy today? I don't want to spoil the fun. Besides, I can hold on. If I don't feel well, I definitely won't play." Xu Han defended herself.

"That's right, it's been a long time since I've seen you so happy."

"It's so lively at home, and I feel happy just looking at it." Xu Han said with a smile.

"I know you like being lively, but the current situation is not appropriate. In two years, when the family is on track, you can let Yunhua and Yunyun stay at home for a while longer." Lu Chuan said.

"I thought so too. Today I heard Yunyun say that they can't stay here for long. This time they came back just to spend more time with Grandpa Zhao." Xu Han said.

"Yunhua also said that we had originally planned to let them stay at home for the New Year this year, but it seems that's not possible anymore."

"Then let's get together later. We have plenty of time. Good days are still ahead. Don't be in a hurry, take your time." Xu Han said.

The two chatted for a while before lying down to rest.

Early the next morning, Lu Chuan and his two companions got up and went to dig a pond. Halfway through, Grandpa Zhao came back and made breakfast. After breakfast, the three of them went again.

After Mu'er woke up, she was also taken there by Lu Chuan to play.

Zhao Yunyun, like Xu Han, slept in and when they woke up, it was already nine o'clock.

The two of them got up one after another to wash up. When they saw each other, they looked at each other and laughed out loud.

After breakfast, Xu Han took Zhao Yunyun to make shoes for Mu'er. They sat in the yard chatting, basking in the sun, and making shoes. It felt like a peaceful and tranquil life.

Two days passed like this, and on November 23rd, early in the morning, Xu Han woke up with a stomachache.

Xu Han, who had already had one childbirth experience, knew that she was about to give birth.

She couldn't even get up from the bed. There was no one at home at this time. Lu Chuan and the others should still be digging a pond outside. Zhao Yunyun was not at home either. Xu Han shouted for a long time but no one responded.

Just when Xu Han felt that she was about to die, she heard Mu'er's voice.

It turned out that Lu Chuan saw that it was getting late, so he asked Mu'er to come and wake Xu Han up for dinner.

"Mu'er, Mu'er." Xu Han shouted in pain.

In fact, I didn't shout out much because it was so painful and I didn't have the strength to shout.

Hearing her mother's voice, Mu'er quickly ran into the house.

As soon as he opened the door, he saw his mother curled up in pain.

Mu'er, who had never seen her mother like this, was immediately frightened and started crying. Seeing this, Xu Han quickly said, "Don't be afraid, Mu'er, mother is fine."

After a pause, he continued, "Go call Daddy and Grandpa Zhao back and tell them that Mommy has a stomachache. Don't be afraid, walk slowly and don't fall."

After receiving the instruction, Mu'er quickly stopped crying and ran out, saying as she ran, "Go find daddy, mommy is not afraid."

When Xu Han saw Mu'er leaving, she could no longer bear it and groaned in pain.

Xu Han, who had given birth once, felt that this time was more painful and torturous than the last time.

Last time it came in waves, from mild to severe, but this time it was different, the pain was particularly intense.

Xu Han now suspected that she was having a difficult labor. Plus, there was still nearly a week left until her due date, and the more she thought about it, the more panicked she became.

It hurts, it really hurts. I don't know if Mu'er has found Lu Chuan.

Lu Chuan, who was digging a hole here, saw his son running towards him crying and shouting something.

I suddenly felt something was wrong, probably because my wife was about to give birth.

He quickly put down the tools in his hands and ran home without looking back.
