Jiang Rui and Zhao Nan only had lunch at Du's house and went back.
Lunch was not very pleasant.
Xiao Shan Hao slept for a while, then woke up and started to cry again. Zhang Xiaohua went back to the house to coax her, but he didn't coax her well. The child was crying non-stop, which made people uneasy. Du Baoqiang followed up. I don't know what to say, and the two suddenly quarreled.
Jiang Rui was going to persuade the fight, but was stopped by Wang Tonghua, she said, "You are a guest now, sit down to eat, and I will take a look."
This is a married girl. She is a guest when she returns to her parents' house, but she is not her own at her husband's house.
Later, Zhang Xiaohua and Du Baoqiang were persuaded, but the scene was still a little stiff. Wang Tonghua probably felt that it was not good to be seen by the new son-in-law as a joke, so she quietly told Jiang Rui that she and Zhao Nan should go back first and come again next time.
After the two of them left, the atmosphere in the Du family was even lower.
Zhang Xiaohua held the little hawthorn and shook it lightly, but his eyes stared at Du Baoqiang. Du Baoqiang sat by the door with his head down.
Seeing that the atmosphere was not right, Du Baozhen didn't dare to say more, and quietly went back to the room.
Wang Tonghua stood at the table with a sullen face.
"Mom, I'll take the child back to my parents' house for a few days." Zhang Xiaohua said suddenly.
Wang Tonghua frowned: "The baby is still ill, let's go again after recovering."
"I don't dare to raise it," Zhang Xiaohua raised his voice, "It's only been a day since I was sick, and some people think that our mother and daughter are annoying and that we are in the way, so it's better to leave early!"
"I didn't mean that." Du Baoqiang said in a muffled voice.
"Then what do you mean?! The child is crying, and you are motionless, sitting there like eating a weight, and you have the face to ask me why I keep making the child cry? You don't know why she is crying! She slept at home yesterday. , I went up the mountain to dig rabbit grass. If someone is watching, don't let her kick the quilt, she can catch a cold? The child is not my child alone, why should I take it alone? Since you don't care about anything, the child is sick What qualifications do you have to take my fault! I tell you Du Baoqiang, this matter is not over!"
Her voice was a little high, and she woke the child up and started crying again.
Zhang Xiaohua coaxed twice, wiped away tears, and slammed the door slammed back to the room.
Wang Tonghua rubbed her forehead, only to feel a pain in her brain, she sighed and said to Du Baoqiang: "She is angry now, just listen to what she says, don't choke on her. I'll help you watch in the afternoon, I won't let her really Go back to Zhang's house, you go up the mountain to dig some grass to feed the rabbits, and come back at night to say something nice. The child is sick, and being a mother is more anxious and distressed than you are. If you can't help, just say a few words. "
It's still the beginning of the first month, if the daughter-in-law is to carry her sick granddaughter back to her parents' home, what will others say about their home
Du Baoqiang went out without saying a word, carrying the basket on his back.
Wang Tonghua looked at the unpacked tableware and chopsticks on the table in front of her, and then looked left and right. Du Youfu was repairing a hoe in the yard. The quarrel just now seemed to have not caught his ears. Zhang Xiaohua's door was closed, and he could still hear the child's cry. With a sound, Du Baozhen's door was also closed. It seemed that she was the only one left in the house. She subconsciously wanted to call Du Baoqin to help, but when a word of treasure came to her lips, she remembered that her eldest daughter was married.
She stood for a while, suddenly felt a little dizzy, propped up the table and sat down slowly, and sighed after a long time.
Back at Zhao's house, Zhang Liyun was a little surprised to see the two of them coming back so quickly, but she didn't ask much.
"It's rare today is a sunny day. Your sister-in-law said you need to boil water to wash your hair and take a bath. Do you want to wash it together?"
"Okay, I'll boil water when I change clothes." Jiang Rui said.
When Li Xiaoe heard it in the kitchen, she said, "I'm burning now. It's almost done. My younger brother and sister can just bring a bucket to carry water."
Jiang Rui went back to the room and changed her clothes. "Sister-in-law and Xiaobo should wash first. I think he's already sitting on the bench and waiting."
Li Xiaoe stuck her head out from behind the stove and glanced at it, and saw Zhao Xiaobo taking off his pants and walking the birds under the sun, angry and funny, "This stinky boy!"
She didn't push it any further, and let Jiang Rui take over the work of boiling water, and took the hot water in a wooden bucket and brought it to the yard.
Zhao Nan brought in two buckets of cold water from the outside and poured it into the cauldron.
"Aren't you full at noon?" Jiang Rui asked him in a low voice.
Zhao Nan shook his head, "I'm full."
"Liar." Jiang Rui exposed him, "You can eat three bowls of dry rice at home, but only two bowls at noon, and it's not full. Go to the yard and get some sweet potatoes and taro, and I'll bury you in the fire. In the pile, it will be ready soon. By the way, take a few more and eat them in small waves later."
Zhao Nan went out to get some sweet potatoes and taro, Jiang Rui asked him to sit next to her, and the two of them were cooking around the stove.
"Aren't you scared today? In fact, my sister-in-law is a good person. It's because the child is sick in the past two days that she is worried, so she quarrels with my brother."
"It's fine." Zhao Nan said.
Jiang Rui played with his palm, scratching the palm of his hand repeatedly. Sometimes Zhao Nan suddenly closed his palm and grabbed her fingers, but sometimes she slipped away. One has to catch, one has to run, see who is more agile than who. This kind of game that children think is childish, two people meet each other and play for a long time.
Zhang Liyun passed by the door of the kitchen several times and saw that the two of them were playing with each other completely. She shook her head in her heart: Don't let the second son's foolishness pass to his daughter-in-law.
After the water was boiled, Zhao Nan helped bring it back to the house.
In winter, it is not easy for rural people to take a shower. First, it costs firewood to boil water. Second, it is cold and shivering while wearing clothes. It takes courage to take a bath without taking off. Usually wait until a sunny day, boil several large pots of hot water, and the whole family lined up to wash. There are those who don't like to be clean, and they can't take a few showers throughout the winter.
Jiang Rui has aura all over her body, she can keep the dust out, and she is much cleaner than ordinary people. Even so, she still wipes her body with water every day, and takes a big bath every three or four days. In this way, at the beginning, Wang Tonghua also said that she was burning firewood indiscriminately.
After washing, she put on clean clothes, and went out to ask Zhao Nan to come and carry the tub out, but she saw that Zhao Nan was also taking a bath, just like Zhao Xiaobo, washing in the sun, but Zhao Xiaobo was naked. Yes, he was wearing a pair of trousers anyway.
Zhao Nan was flushing water on her body, but when she saw her coming out of the house, the water ladle almost fell to the ground, hurriedly caught it, and turned her back.
"What are you hiding?" Zhang Liyun yelled at him when he saw that he almost broke the water scoop into eight petals, "She's not a big girl, so why can't you see it? Your mother, I think you've grown up since you were a child, what did you say when you saw me? Is it?"
"Mom, the second brother is hiding from his younger brother and sister, and the young couple's faces are tender." Li Xiaoe was about to wash her clothes by the water, and smiled.
"The face is still tender, and his daughter-in-law is tender? I think it's an old cucumber painted with green paint and pretending to be tender!"
One sentence made Jiang Rui and Li Xiaoe giggle.
