"Sister, sister, this county is so lively! There are so many fun places!" Zhushan saw Zhuqing and immediately came up to him and said, with excitement on his face.
"Well, the county town is fun, but the county town is bigger, and the capital city is even bigger! Zhushan, if you want to go to a bigger and more fun place, you must study hard. In the future, you will be elected, Jinshi, and become an official.
, you can go to a bigger place!" Zhu Qing responded to the situation.
She felt in her heart that she was like those parents in previous lives who hoped that their children would become successful, seizing every opportunity to brainwash their children and asking them to work hard and make progress.
However, Zhushan did not have the rebelliousness of those middle school boys. After listening to Zhuqing's words, he looked yearning: "Sister, really? I will definitely study hard! When the time comes, I will take you and dad with me.
Mom, let’s go to that bigger and more fun place together! Let’s go play together!”
This kid is so considerate when he talks! Zhu Qing couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth and stretched out his hand to rub his face: "Yeah, okay! I'm just waiting for you to take me there!"
"Sister, I'm sure I can do it!" Zhushan felt a little embarrassed and stretched out his hand to push away Zhuqing's mischievous hand from his face.
Zhuzi on the side was infected, and actually said to Li Zheng: "Grandpa, I also study hard! I will take you to the capital in the future!"
Li Zheng was very happy after hearing this: "Oh, my good grandson! It's really great! Grandpa will definitely try to live until that day!"
"Pfft!" Zhuqing and her brother couldn't help laughing after hearing this.
Zhuzi was a little angry: "Grandpa, what do you mean? Do you think I can't do it? Or will it take a long time to do it? Let me tell you, even if I am slower than Zhushan, I can still take the exam in three years at most.
I'm a Tongsheng student. I can pass the Tongsheng test.
If I pass the scholar exam, I can pass the imperial examination. If I pass the judicial exam, I will definitely pass the imperial examination! The fastest, the fastest is only ten years! You are only in your early fifties this year. After more than ten years, you will only be six years old.
I'm more than ten years old, why can't I see it? Huh! Don't underestimate me!"
Hearing what his grandson said, Li Zheng was extremely happy: "Okay, okay! It's best if you have this ambition! Okay, I'll wait for you!"
After Zhuzhu heard what he said, he gave up.
Dani and Erni looked at the enthusiasm of the two of them talking, but they looked envious. Dani said in a low voice to Sister-in-law Osmanthus: "Mom, please give birth to a younger brother as soon as possible, and let him study in the future. He will definitely be able to do it in the future.
Take you to the capital!"
Sister-in-law Osmanthus smiled when she heard this, but her face was a little confused. Now she is really unsure about giving birth to a son.
Erni, however, had a different approach: "Mom, don't worry! Even if you don't have a younger brother, I will find you a son-in-law who is the number one scholar in the future, and I can still take you to the capital! Don't worry, I will study hard in the future and work hard to imitate women.
Hong, become a good girl that everyone loves, and she will definitely have a great future when the time comes!"
This girl has a wonderful mind, but people can't help but admire her: "Er Ni is right! If you have a son-in-law who is the number one scholar, you can go to the capital as well, Osmanthus! Hahaha!"
After hearing this, Li Zheng couldn't help but give Er Ni a thumbs up.
Zhuqing also smiled and said to Sister-in-law Osmanthus: "Yes, Sister-in-law Osmanthus, Erni is right! A girl should work hard and become a good girl. Is there a daughter in the family who wants to ask for it? A son can shine on the family tree, just like a daughter.
You can give your parents some credit!"
The compliments from the two of them made Er Ni feel very embarrassed.
Sister-in-law Osmanthus hugged Erni, who was crooked in her arms, with a smile on her face.
"Our Ernie is also very ambitious and a good child!" She stroked her daughter's soft hair, filled with joy.
Then he saw Dani with a hint of disappointment on her face, and continued: "Our Dani is also a sensible and good child. She has always understood my mother's difficulties. She has done a lot of things for me at home!"
Dani heard her mother also praise her, but she hung her head in embarrassment.
Zhuqing couldn't help but said: "Sister-in-law Osmanthus, you are so lucky! You actually have two such warm little cotton-padded jackets! You usually feel much better just looking at these two sisters!"
Sister-in-law Guihua smiled, and this time her smile came from the heart: "Who says it's not the case! Now that we are in the town, seeing how sensible they are, I feel that even if I don't give birth to a son, my life will be the same.
Comfortable.”
What she said is true.
Now that she has left Cuizhu Village, without her mother-in-law Qiao Shi who deliberately finds trouble in front of her every day and dislikes Dani and Erni, not only is she in a relaxed mood, but the two children also feel much lighter.
In the past, the two of them were disliked in various ways, and they had a deep sense of inferiority at a young age. They always felt that it was their fault for being women. Now that they have left that bad environment, the two children have become much more cheerful.
"Actually, it's not a big deal to have a boy or a girl! Hey, even if you think about it, it's the same! A hundred years from now, the incense and filial descendants may be able to remember, but it's still a question whether they can maintain the unpromising descendants!" It's rare for Li Zheng to actually do so!
Being able to say such transparent words, Zhu Qing couldn't help but look at him in a different light.
Because it was getting late, they quickly got on the mule cart and hurried home.
Zhushan, Zhuzi, Dani, and Erni were all exhausted after shopping for most of the day, and soon fell asleep in the car.
Zhuqing and her sister-in-law Osmanthus chatted quietly, talking about their plans for the New Year. Then while they were chatting, the mule cart arrived in the town.
Sister-in-law Guihua took Dani, and Erni got out of the car first. Then Li Zheng took Zhuqing and the others back to the village.
It was Zhushan's first time traveling far away, so Wang was very nervous.
She could be said to be waiting at the entrance of the village. When she saw the mule cart, she immediately came to greet it: "You are finally back! Are you okay in Zhushan? Are you too tired or hungry?"
Li Zheng nodded to her and said, "The children are all well! Zhuzi and Zhushan are both asleep. They ate sweet-scented osmanthus cakes on the way. I have a stove in the car that boils hot water."
Hearing Li Zheng's words, Wang felt relieved.
Seeing the car entering the village, Zhuqing woke up Zhushan and Zhuzhu: "Wake up quickly, we are already in the village! Touch your face with your hands to save yourself from the wind and cold!"
After the car stopped, Zhushan and Zhushan got out of the car cheering.
Seeing Mrs. Wang who was following suit and staring at Zhushan asking for help, Zhuqing didn't know what to say to her.
Because Zhushan was weak in the past, Wang was already nervous and a little nervous. But she knew that even if she tried to persuade her too much, it would be useless. Only she could calm down slowly.
"Shanba, are you okay? Are you tired? Go home and have dinner quickly!" This was the third time that Wang excitedly talked to Zhuzi about the lively Zhushan in the county to the village children.
Zhuqing was not happy to remind her and went home directly.
At home, Sun Fucheng was already sitting at the table, pouring himself a glass of rice wine.
Seeing Zhuqing, he quickly called her: "Qingya, are you tired today? Come and sit down. I made the fried bacon with garlic tonight. Come and try it! Leave your mother alone, Zhushan is her lifeblood.
!”
Obviously, Sun Fucheng was well aware of his wife's situation. He was afraid that Zhuqing would be unhappy if he felt that he had been left out, so he hurriedly greeted her.
Zhuqing is no longer the sensitive and arrogant little girl she used to be. She completely understands Wang's approach. She smiled at Sun Fucheng and said, "Okay, I want to try your craftsmanship today!"
So the father and daughter sat down first.
After a while, Wang finally took Zhushan home.
"After a tiring day, you can't eat too much at night, it's too greasy! Have some porridge first! I've made porridge for you!" As soon as Mrs. Wang got home, she hurriedly scooped porridge for them.
Zhuqing took out the snacks bought in the county and greeted them: "These snacks are delicious! Dad, Mom, you all have some!"
"Qingya, you spent money recklessly again! Didn't you tell me not to bring it this time? Our family will save money to build a new house next year!" Seeing the snacks Zhuqing brought back, Mrs. Wang couldn't help but feel sorry for the money.
"Mom, don't we already have the money to build a house? Don't worry, by next year, our family will have other income! As for this money, it only makes sense to spend it once we have earned it. Besides, the Chinese New Year is almost here.
"It doesn't matter if you have some snacks," Zhu Qing advised.
She knew that Wang was used to being frugal, and it would be impossible to change her habit of calculating every aspect of her life in a short period of time.
"Hey, you kid, you really don't know what to say!" Wang looked at Zhu Qing and smiled, but said no more.
Zhuqing now has many ideas and big ideas, and her contribution to the family is obvious to all, and Mrs. Wang doesn't want to make her unhappy over a trivial matter.
Unlike the warmth of their family of four, Aunt Huaihua's house next door was a mess.
"Xiaobao, Xiaobao, this rice cake is very sweet. Come on, eat more! Only by eating can you grow taller!" The Chinese New Year is almost here, and Aunt Huaihua has also made a lot of cakes at home.
However, there are so many delicious pastries in their family, but only her precious son Xiaobao can eat them all. Her other two daughters Chunxiang and Xiaxiang can only taste them.
"I won't eat! My stomach hurts!" Xiaobao, who usually wolfed down food, was very sleepy today. He took a few bites and then refused to eat again.
"What's going on? Isn't this your favorite rice cake? I remember you ate five pieces in one go last night! Why did you refuse to eat even half a piece today?" Aunt Huaihua was a little anxious.
.
Her son Xiaobao is her heartthrob, and if something goes wrong at all, she will be anxious.
"I can't eat, my stomach hurts!" Xiaobao dropped his chopsticks and touched his stomach and kept complaining of pain.
Seeing this, Aunt Huaihua quickly put down the bowl, hugged her son, stretched out her hands to rub his belly, and stared at Mi Gao's little daughter Xia Xiang: "What are you looking at? You can't eat enough all day long.
!Didn’t you already eat it yesterday and you still want to eat it today? The rest belongs to Xiaobao! Why don’t you finish the porridge quickly and get some water for Xiaobao!”
Xia Xiang, who was scolded by her, did not dare to say anything. She finished the porridge in the bowl with her head lowered and then stood up to pour water.
Her eldest daughter Chunxiang asked her wisely: "Mom, Xiaobao is like this, do you want to call a doctor to take a look at him? A stomachache is not a trivial matter after all!"
Her words reminded Aunt Huaihua. Aunt Huaihua held her youngest son in her arms and told her husband, Sun Futian: "Master, go and hire a doctor for Xiaobao?"
Like Aunt Huaihua, Sun Futian's youngest son is the treasure of his heart. Seeing his son like this, he also felt that he must hire a doctor for him: "Okay, I'll go right away! It's just that the Chinese New Year is about to come, and Dr. Sun doesn't know if he will."
null!"
He said and went out.
It's just that he went out for a long time, but when he came back he had a disappointed look on his face: "Damn Dr. Sun is actually drunk! Hey, it's so late, who should we invite? Doctor Qian needs at least two taels of silver before he is willing to see a doctor! This
At that time, he still didn’t know if he was there or if he would go out!”
As time went by, the baby in Aunt Huaihua's arms began to cry endlessly.
"Mom, my stomach hurts, it hurts! I will never eat rice cakes again! Never again!" Xiaobao kept crying.
Aunt Huaihua hugged him, but she couldn't tell the pain. She only thought that the rice cake was a good thing, and it was a good thing for Xiaobao to eat it, but she didn't expect that after her son ate it all, the result would be like this.
Even if he vomited something he had already eaten, he would not be able to vomit it out. Moreover, his stomach was hard and his bowel movements did not respond.
This was the first time she had encountered such a situation. Now seeing her husband returning without success, she couldn't help but feel anxious: "What should I do? Xiaobao is like this, it's impossible not to ask a doctor! It's just that Doctor Qian's house is so far away
, we rush over and we don’t know if it’s too late!”
"I remember, isn't the Qingya next door to us studying medicine with a doctor in the county? Otherwise, let's go find her first!" Sun Futian suddenly remembered that the Qingya from the neighbor's house next door was studying medicine.
"Qingya? She has only been studying for a few days? I'm afraid she won't make it! Besides, this girl's eyes are very big, so she may not be willing to help us!" Aunt Huaihua has suffered several losses from Zhuqing. In fact, she has suffered several losses.
She tried to take advantage for the first time but failed, so she was very worried about Zhu Qing and felt that Zhu Qing might not be willing to help her.
"Anyway, she is close after all! Let her see it first! If she can see it, wouldn't Xiaobao not have to wait so long? I will call her right away!" Sun Futian disagreed with his wife's words.
Of course, he also knows his wife's personality well and knows that her temperament can easily offend others.
"Fucheng, Fucheng, have you guys gone to bed? My little baby suddenly has a stomachache, and I want to see your Qingya!" Sun Futian quickly walked to the door of Sun Fucheng's house and knocked on his door.
"Master, it seems Futian is calling the door!" Wang heard it first and woke up Sun Fucheng.
"Hey, it's so late for Futian, why are you looking for me?" Sun Fucheng heard this and quickly put on his clothes and stood up.
Seeing Sun Fucheng, Sun Futian quickly explained his purpose.
"Oh, so that's it? Okay, I'll call Qingya!" Hearing that Xiaobao was sick, Sun Fucheng knew that it was difficult for children at home to be sick, so he immediately agreed.
"Qingya, Qingya, Xiaobao next door suddenly has a stomachache, go and help him!" Zhuqing was called by Wang.
