"Daddy's four girls are so good, they will love you."
Mrs. Gu brought a bowl of rice, a bowl of sweet potato porridge, and a bowl of pickles from the small kitchen inside.
She hesitated to speak, always as if she had a lot to say, but in the end she didn't say anything, she just smiled hard.
"Come on, dad, it's time to eat," but no matter how hard she tried, there were still a few choked sounds in her voice.
"Okay, let's eat," Qi Zhong picked up Qi You'er with one hand, then took chopsticks and started to devour it, as if he hadn't eaten in a few days. While eating, he was still stuffing something in his mouth, mumbling.
Qing was still talking about the good things.
Seeing Qi Zhong like this, Mrs. Gu felt very sad, but she didn't dare to say anything sad. She was afraid that if she said it, she might burst into tears. Their family really couldn't afford any more tears.
When he got up early in the morning, while Qi You'er was still sleeping soundly, Qi Zhong had already gotten up. He whispered to Gu in a low voice, "I'm leaving first. I'll be busy for another day today, and I'll be able to take care of our land tomorrow."
, and then sell the threshed autumn grain, which can probably be exchanged for several taels of silver."
Mrs. Gu kept nodding, Qi Zhong glanced at his little daughter again, and then left with some reluctance.
And after he came out, he had inexhaustible strength. One day after another, he would be able to work for the family. For the sake of a few children, he could endure any hardship.
Not long after Gu left Qizhong, she took a few dry cakes and went out to the fields. Maybe Qizhong was afraid that Gu would know something, so when she went to the fields, she didn't even touch the scholar cakes.
Mrs. Gu thought in her heart, feeling sour and sad.
She harvested the wheat in the field. Although she moved very quickly, compared with others, she was much slower. There was no way. This was the difference between men and women. She also had to find time to take care of four children, especially the youngest.
That one is still breastfeeding.
Fortunately, Qi Youer was really well-behaved and never let her worry, which also saved her a lot of worry. She didn't know what the child's temper was like. He was simply too easy to raise.
Gu thought while working, and when she raised her head and wiped the sweat from her face, it was already noon.
People from every household went home to rest and eat, while only a few people were still busy in the fields.
Mrs. Gu stood up and rubbed her sore waist. She walked to the shade, hugged Qi Youer and tied her to her body.
"Be good, Siya, go with mom to find dad."
"Jie..." Qi Youer softly bit out one word. Gu was stunned, "Siya, can you call me daddy?"
Qi Youer was playing with her little clothes. She wanted to keep silent this time because she wanted to give her father a surprise. Yes, she knew how to call her father. In fact, she did it very early.
Mrs. Gu was holding a daughter in one hand, with one still tied to her body, and Qi Dong'er was following behind her. Qi You'er really sighed, it was better to have a family planning, because it was really hard to have a baby.
Everyone in Qi's family has gone back a long time ago, and now only Qi Zhong is still busy in the field. He has not rested at all, and his clothes are soaked. He is bent over, and he is not even thirty years old.
My back seems to be bent, and even the hair on my temples has grown gray early.
"Jie...," Qi Youer waved his little hand and kept calling Qi Zhong
Mrs. Gu looked at her daughter in surprise. She thought that the child spoke very slowly, so she just called him daddy. Also, while she was still thinking, Qi Youer arrived with a light in her arms.
Qi Zhong's arms
"My Siya can call me daddy now, please call me again."
