After the house was built, the men followed the women to weed the fields. Qian Shulan stayed at home with her children, feeding the pigs and chickens and cooking.
Thinking that the people's commune would be established soon, all the grain would have to be handed over, so she was not going to give them porridge anymore.
Qian Shulan kept a small portion of the starter she had soaked in the morning and put it into the flour bag. She added five more bowls of flour and sprinkled some alkaline water into the basin.
She added some more water and started kneading the dough. She then remembered that she still had some dates from last year that were dried in the sun in her house, so she washed them and soaked them in water.
When kneading the steamed bun, stuff a red date inside.
After all the steamed buns are kneaded, start adding water to the pot to steam the buns.
When all the Wang family members came back, they smelled the fragrance of steamed buns in the kitchen and thought that maybe they were so hungry that their sense of smell was impaired.
The last time we steamed white flour buns was half a month ago. Unexpectedly, we steamed them again today. Everyone was a little bit unbelievable.
"They are really white flour steamed buns!" Zhengjun, who was only six years old, didn't know how to control his temper. When he saw his grandmother bringing out a large basket of steamed buns, he started yelling.
The people washing their hands at the well were all shocked. They couldn't believe it was true. Would their mother be willing to give them steamed buns
When Qian Shulan really brought out the steamed buns, everyone became energetic and ran quickly to the big vat to fetch water to wash their hands.
Qian Shulan smiled and said, "You have all been tired recently, you should have a good meal."
Everyone in the family was very happy and no longer felt that weeding was tiring.
It was already June, and the temperature at noon could reach as high as 30 degrees. Qian Shulan asked them to take an hour's lunch break and then go back to weed in the afternoon.
The younger children did not have a rest at noon, and Qian Shulan was afraid that they would disturb the adults, so she let them play in the main room.
Qian Shulan went back to her own space to sort out her things.
She bought a lot of things. Apart from 30,000 kilograms of grain, there was almost no space left, so Qian Shulan wanted to pile the grain higher so that she could continue to put other things.
In the past, she didn't even dare to think about it. She didn't have the strength to move those bags of food, so most of the time she just piled them up to one person's height.
Now, she was full of energy, so naturally she had to take some time to tidy herself up.
After working for more than an hour, Qian Shulan put her hands on her waist and looked contentedly at the half space she had freed up, thinking that she should have a place to store her next batch of food.
Qian Shulan initially wanted to buy the ring space for 500 gold coins, but the tragedy was that she was a mortal without any spiritual power and could only bind a portable space.
Apart from lamenting her bad luck, Qian Shulan could only save up more gold coins to buy food.
When she left the space and was about to take a nap, she realized that there was a lot of noise outside, mixed with the crying of children.
Qian Shulan frowned, immediately opened the door and walked out.
I saw that the entrance to the main hall was crowded with people.
"Why are you all standing here instead of going to work?" Qian Shulan said, standing behind the crowd.
When they heard her voice, they automatically separated into two paths.
Qian Shulan then discovered that Xiaolian was sitting on the floor in the main room, wiping her tears and crying breathlessly, with broken bottles lying on the floor at her feet.
The Wang family's thermos is made of bamboo strips and sold for two yuan and fifty cents each at the supply and marketing cooperative. It is a little cheaper than a tin thermos, but it is also considered a valuable item in that era.
Qian Shulan couldn't help but frown. She looked around and saw that everyone was staring at Xiaolian with dissatisfaction, as if they were going to eat her.
The person with the most ferocious expression was actually Xiaolian’s biological father Wang Shouyi.
At this time, he was holding a stick as thick as a baby's. Seeing Xiaolian still crying, he lifted her up from the ground by one of her arms and started to beat her on the buttocks with the stick, cursing viciously, "I told you to be naughty, I told you to be naughty. You ruined such an expensive thermos with just a slight touch. You are really a complete money-loser."
Qian Shulan quickly shouted, "Stop!"
Wang Shouyi paused in his beating. His face flushed red, and he explained to Qian Shulan with a bitter and helpless look, "Mom, I have to beat this child. He is only a few years old, but he has no sense of restraint and even hit the thermos bottle. What will happen when he grows up?"
Qian Shulan really couldn't understand the logic behind his words. She didn't want to understand. She had always thought that Wang Shouyi was the quietest and most honest one in the family. He never picked up food for the children. She originally thought that he was just biased towards boys, but who would have thought that he would be so arrogant. She stepped forward, snatched the stick from his hand, and yelled at him, "She is only a few years old. Isn't it normal for her to be naughty? Besides, it's just a thermos bottle, and you want to beat her to death. Can't you teach her well?"
As soon as Qian Shulan finished speaking, Wang Shouyi disagreed, "Mom, people say that beating a child makes him filial. I beat her to educate her, for her own good. That's what you taught me before!"
Qian Shulan couldn't help rubbing her forehead and swearing, "Bullshit! Did she steal a chicken or touch a dog? Why do you beat her like this? Are you still her real father?"
Wang Shouyi saw his mother humiliating him in front of so many people, his face turned red, and he argued, "Mom, this is my child, I have the right to discipline her." He glanced at everyone and began to look for allies, "Tell me, is it wrong for me to hit her? She ruined such an expensive thermos. How much does it cost to buy it?"
Sun Daqin, who was always worried about the thermos being hit, quickly agreed, "Yes, the supply and marketing cooperative sells it for 2.5 yuan each." Although the others didn't dare to say it as blatantly as Sun Daqin, they also had expressions of agreement on their faces. Zhou Xuemei didn't agree, but her expression was a little strange.
Qian Shulan couldn't help but frown. She turned to Wang Shouyi and said, "You beat her up. It's so hot, and it won't heal in a short time. What if she gets scars?"
Wang Shouyi hesitated for a moment, obviously not having thought of this.
Qian Shulan sighed and continued, "She is a girl, and she is very shy. You can't teach her the same way you teach a boy. When your mother beat you when you were a child, it was to make you useful and to make you remember the lesson. Besides, you were fighting with the landlord's youngest son at that time. The nature of the fight is different. At that time, your mother beat you for your own good, otherwise how could the landlord let you off so easily? Xiaolian only broke her own things, she didn't harm anyone else. Besides, she also realized that she was wrong, and she didn't break the thermos on purpose, you don't have to beat her to death. You can't use the same method your mother used on you to teach Xiaolian, after all, she is still young."
After saying that, regardless of Wang Shouyi's expression, he bent down and touched Xiaolian's hand. Only then did he notice that she had been covering half of her face.
Qian Shulan quickly moved her hand away, only to see five finger marks clearly imprinted on her small face. Looking at this scene, one could guess how ruthless Wang Shouyi was when he attacked her just now.
The veins on Qian Shulan's forehead were throbbing.
She turned around suddenly and ordered Wang Shouyi, "From now on, if you dare to hit the child without my consent again, I will punish you by not allowing you to eat. Also, you are not allowed to eat dinner tonight and breakfast tomorrow. You were so rough. If I didn't hit you, you wouldn't feel pain, right?"
Wang Shouyi pursed his lips stubbornly.
Qian Shulan glanced at everyone again and said in dissatisfaction, "You are all blind. You watched the third brother beat the child without stopping him. Are you still Xiaolian's uncle and aunt? How can you be so cruel? Huh?"
At the end, she yelled at the top of her lungs. After that, she angrily said, "You are not allowed to eat tonight."
Xiao Tao, whose mouth had been covered by Zhou Xuemei, took the opportunity to pry open her mother's hands that had been restraining her, ran over to Xiao Lian, and asked in a low voice, "Xiao Lian, does it hurt?"
Xiaolian shook her head, "It doesn't hurt!"
Xiao Tao looked at the finger marks on her face and couldn't help crying, "Xiao Lian, I'm sorry, it's all my fault."
Xiaolian hurriedly shook her head and winked at her, "It's none of your business, I..."
Xiao Tao didn't listen to her. She turned around and ran to Zhou Xuemei, hugged Zhou Xuemei's thighs and started crying, "Mom, please believe me, I really was the one who hit the thermos. It wasn't Xiao Lian. She lied because she was afraid that grandma would hit me."
Everyone was stunned by Xiao Tao's words.
Zhou Xuemei lowered her head and did not dare to look at the expressions of the crowd. She wanted to cover Xiaotao's mouth to stop her from speaking, but she felt that this was no different from covering one's ears and stealing the bell, so she gave up.
Xiaotao wiped her tears and cried breathlessly.
Sun Daqin reacted, slapped her thigh, and yelled as if she was afraid that the world would not be in chaos, "Oh, my fourth sister-in-law, your Xiaotao is really capable. When she made a mistake, she let me take the blame for it. She really knows how to be a sister." She glanced at Li Chunhua again and sneered meaningfully, "Some people are just fools. They love their daughters, but they know the truth, but they don't stand up. But she still thinks that she is a good person. She is really stupid."
Zhou Xuemei blushed at her words and didn't dare to look up at anyone.
Li Chunhua woke up from her shock. She couldn't help but rush towards Xiaolian with red eyes, hugged her and cried hysterically, "My poor Xiaolian."
Xiaolian was held in her mother's arms. The unprecedented warmth made her very uncomfortable. She couldn't help but push Li Chunhua.
Qian Shulan twitched her lips, shook her head in disappointment at Zhou Xuemei, stood up and said to Wang Shouyi, "Look, not only did you hit him too hard, you hit the wrong person."
Wang Shouyi wanted to find a hole to crawl into. His dark face turned purple and he apologized to Qian Shulan stutteringly, "Mom, I...I was wrong."
Qian Shulan couldn't help but frown and reminded him, "You shouldn't apologize to me, you should apologize to Xiaolian."
Hearing this, Wang Shouyi jumped three feet high, very unhappy, with a strange look on his face, stiff neck, and a high voice, "I'm her father, how can I apologize to her!"
He was looking at Qian Shulan's face when he spoke, but as he saw his mother's face becoming darker and darker, his voice involuntarily became weaker.
He pleaded with a bitter face, "Mom, I'm her father, you asked me to apologize to her, can you please give me some face?"
Qian Shulan was unmoved by his pleas for mercy and still insisted, her voice a little cold, "When you beat Xiaolian, didn't you give her face?"
The atmosphere suddenly became tense, and neither the mother nor the son was willing to give in.
Wang Shouyi saw that his mother was determined, so he gritted his teeth and walked to Xiaolian. Li Chunhua had already let go of Xiaolian, and seeing her man's murderous expression, she couldn't help but move aside.
When Xiaolian saw her father coming again, she subconsciously shrank her body and took several steps back, her big, dark, bright eyes looking at him warily.
This pitiful look was like a frightened little rabbit. Wang Shouyi couldn't help but feel a jump in his heart, and his face was very uncomfortable. He grunted for a long time before he managed to say, "Xiao Lian, I'm sorry, Dad shouldn't have hit you!"
The voice was low and fierce, which scared Xiaolian! Facing Wang Shouyi's scary black face, Xiaolian quickly waved her hands, "No... It's okay!"
This polite expression was taught to them by Qian Shulan.
Xiaolian is now putting what she has learned into practice.
After apologizing, Wang Shouyi felt that he had lost face in front of the younger generation. His face turned red, and he lowered his head, squeezed through the crowd and walked towards his room.
Qian Shulan asked Li Chunhua to take Xiaolian to Old Yang to have her wound treated. Worried that Li Chunhua would be reluctant to spend money, she handed her fifty cents and told her, "Don't leave any scars."
Li Chunhua took the money and took Xiaolian out of the house.
After the others left, Qian Shulan looked at Xiaotao, who was crying and hiccuping. Seeing her milk coming over, she couldn't help but squeeze towards Zhou Xuemei.
Qian Shulan just wanted to find out what happened.
In the end, was it Xiaotao who asked Xiaolian to take the blame for her, or was it Xiaolian who volunteered to take the blame for Xiaotao
This is very important as it concerns the character and personality of the two children, so she cannot be careless.
Seeing her mother-in-law looking at her with a fierce look, Zhou Xuemei couldn't help but want to plead for mercy, but Qian Shulan gave her a sharp look, and Zhou Xuemei was so scared that she dared not move.
Although her mother-in-law had been very kind to them recently, she still did not dare to challenge her mother-in-law's authority. In addition, her husband had already gone to the county town, and no one was there to plead for her, so she could only let her mother-in-law make the decision.
"Xiaotao, can you tell grandma how the thermos was broken?" Qian Shulan tried her best to make her voice gentle and free of personal feelings.
After all, Xiaotao is too weak and can't stand the stimulation. Qian Shulan doesn't want to be too arbitrary before finding out the truth.
Seeing her grandmother speaking to her so gently, Xiao Tao couldn't help but turn her head.
Qian Shulan looked at her encouragingly, which made her forget her fear. She explained in a baby voice what happened, "Xiao Lian and I were playing sandbag throwing. I accidentally threw the sandbag onto the big table, so I stepped on a bench to get it. But I slipped and accidentally knocked over the thermos under the table."
Qian Shulan nodded in understanding and encouraged, "And then?"
"Then, Xiaolian was afraid that you would punish me, so she said that she beat me. She said that I was in poor health and would definitely die if I was beaten. She was in good health and would definitely be able to withstand it."
Qian Shulan couldn't help but tear up. She touched Xiao Tao's head and said, "Xiao Lian is a good and kind child, but you shouldn't let her take the blame for you. You should take responsibility for your own mistakes. This is what an honest and good child should do."
Xiao Tao blushed and nodded shyly. Her eyes were red, and she wiped her tears with the back of her hand, crying to Qian Shulan, "Grandma, hit me, it wasn't Xiao Lian who broke the thermos. Don't let Uncle San hit her."
Qian Shulan couldn't help but frowned, "Why didn't you say anything just now?"
Xiao Tao looked up at her mother. Zhou Xuemei blushed, feeling embarrassed and ashamed.
Qian Shulan glared at Zhou Xuemei in anger, "You should know the limit when you spoil your children, otherwise a good child can be taught astray by you two. You made a more serious mistake than Xiaotao. You should think about how to be a mother."
Zhou Xuemei lowered her head and dared not talk back, and was scolded obediently. When Wang Shouyi beat people, she also tried to persuade him, but she couldn't stop him at all.
Qian Shulan ordered again, "You are fined to buy two thermoses. The money will be deducted from your private savings. Also, you are not allowed to eat breakfast tomorrow."
After saying that, Qian Shulan left everyone behind and went back to the house.
Qian Shulan didn't cook dinner for her sons and daughters-in-law. She cooked all the meals these days, so no one had the chance to hide anything.
These people were also smart and stayed in the house without coming out. Qian Shulan gave each of the children a steamed bun. Zhengkang was still growing, so she gave him two.
The steamed buns made by Qian Shulan were different from the ones sold in later generations that contained a lot of baking powder. Not only were they large in size, but they were also very substantial. When pinched, the buns would bounce very little, and a child could be full with just one.
Even two adults are enough.
After working all day, they were already exhausted, and now they didn’t even have anything to eat. The adults were growling with hunger.
Wang Shouren was better off. Zhengguo and Zhengjun gave him half of the steamed bun they had secretly saved while he was in the toilet. Zhengkang also saved a steamed bun, giving half to Liu Fangming and the other half to his father.
Qian Shulan, thinking that her son usually listened to her the most, secretly gave him two eggs, so Wang Shouren did not starve at all.
Sun Daqin was just starving. She drank cold water all night and went to the toilet several times. Why cold water? Because the only thermos bottle in the house was broken.
Wang Shouyi and Li Chunhua were eating half a steamed bun that their eldest daughter had secretly saved. Li Chunhua only took one bite, and the rest was eaten by Wang Shouyi alone.
Zhou Xuemei saw the half steamed bun that Xiaotao handed over, touched her head, and said with relief, "No need, Mom is not hungry! You are too weak to not eat."
Xiao Tao insisted that she eat it, so Zhou Xuemei had no choice but to take it. At the end, she said with shame, "Mom was wrong. I shouldn't have stopped you from admitting your mistake."
Zhou Xuemei stopped Xiaotao from admitting her mistake because she was worried that her mother-in-law would dislike Xiaotao as before. The better her mother-in-law treated her family these days, the more she felt that she had some purpose. Otherwise, why would her mother-in-law treat them so well for no reason
Today, Xiaotao broke the thermos, and Zhou Xuemei subconsciously felt that her mother-in-law would definitely get angry. In the past, her mother-in-law was always picky about Xiaotao, and would even secretly glare at her when they weren't paying attention. Xiaotao even cried for help at night. She was so distressed that she kept crying. Due to her status, she didn't dare to argue with her mother-in-law, she just wanted to separate the family as soon as possible. However, her mother-in-law insisted on not letting them split, and the team leader was her mother-in-law's nephew, who listened to her the most, so they were blocked from even seeking external help.
However, after what happened today, Zhou Xuemei found that her mother-in-law didn't seem as unreasonable as before, which made her feel relieved.
Xiao Tao rolled her little body into her mother's arms, hugged her mother's neck, and whispered, "Mom, it's not your fault. I'm not brave enough."
Zhou Xuemei was eating steamed buns and couldn't help but hugging Xiaotao tightly.
The next morning, Zhou Xuemei apologized to Li Chunhua for the beating of Xiaolian.
Li Chunhua was originally angry with Zhou Xuemei, but when she saw that Zhou Xuemei actually brought a piece of flowered cloth as an apology, her anger immediately disappeared.
Zhou Xuemei apologized to Xiaolian again. Xiaolian did not blame her aunt at all. She blushed and waved her hands, saying "It's okay."
After Zhou Xuemei left, Li Chunhua spread out the floral cloth. She had already taken a fancy to the floral cloth, but due to her personal feelings, she could not open her mouth.
But who would have thought that Xiaolian would get it after being beaten once.
Li Chunhua immediately spread out the flowered cloth and prepared to make a new dress for Xiaomei.
A few days ago, her husband told her that Xiaomei was going to stay at home to marry a son-in-law, so she had to dress up nicely.
Although she had made clothes for Xiaomei before, Li Chunhua's brain wasn't very good and she couldn't remember things.
So she took out a tape measure and prepared to measure it again.
Xiaolian lay on the kang and cried in grievance when she saw her mother preparing to make clothes for her elder sister again.
Seeing her sister looking so pitiful, Xiao He pouted. She also felt that although her sister was silly, she was still very loyal. She wanted to help Xiao Lian and said to her mother, "Mom, my elder sister is making new clothes again. Were you the ones who picked us up?"
Li Chunhua was bending over to help Xiaomei measure her waist. When she heard Xiaohe's words, she glanced at her and said, "Your elder sister takes better care of clothes than you do. Look at you, you don't even pay attention when you eat. There's so much vegetable juice on your clothes. It's so dirty."
Xiao He was eating the bitter vegetable fruit she picked from the field. The fruit was bluish-black in color, a little smaller than soybeans, and tasted sour and sweet.
However, once its juice gets on clothes, you have to wash it immediately, otherwise the juice will easily remain on them and cannot be washed off no matter how hard you try.
Li Chunhua asked Xiao He to wear a coat to keep away dirt. But Xiao He was getting older and didn't like the tacky coats. She only liked to wear pretty ones.
Li Chunhua couldn't keep an eye on her all the time because she was working, so fortunately she just let her be.
So, every time, before the clothes could be passed to Xiaolian, they would be made dirty by Xiaohe.
Xiaolian lay on the bed and saw that her mother didn't consider her feelings at all.
She had hugged her and cried before, but now she gave the cloth that Fourth Aunt gave to her as compensation to her sister to make clothes.
The words of sympathy for her were all fake. She was beaten, but no one felt sorry for her.
Xiaolian felt so aggrieved that she lay on the kang and sobbed quietly.
Xiaomei felt a little sorry for what she saw, so she moved her body and wanted to go over to comfort her. Li Chunhua held her shoulders to prevent her from moving, pouted at Xiaolian, and said sarcastically, "Let her cry. Let her show off. She likes to be beaten. Let her be beaten!"
Xiaomei was so anxious that she stamped her feet and begged her mother not to say such excessive words, "Mom!"
Li Chunhua was unmoved and continued to exaggerate, "You really think you are Liu Hulan. Look at your own behavior. How can you compare with the revolutionary martyrs? You are just a scapegoat at best."
Hearing these heart-wrenching words, Xiaolian didn't care about crying anymore. She climbed up from the kang. Every time she moved, her butt hurt. Beads of sweat appeared on her forehead. She yelled at her mother, "I'm going to find grandma. You're being unreasonable!"
Without waiting for Li Chunhua to react, she moved her legs and rushed out.
Li Chunhua was startled by her action and threw the tape measure onto the kang, grumbling non-stop, "Poor child, why does he always ask your grandma for help? I'm still your mother, but you use your grandma to pressure me. Sooner or later, I'll be pissed off to death by you money-losing bastards."
Li Chunhua was so anxious that she rushed out.
Xiaolian was injured and couldn't walk fast at all. She was knocked to the ground by Li Chunhua who rushed out quickly. Qian Shulan who just came out of the room saw her.
Xiaolian's butt was pressed down by Li Chunhua, and she grimaced in pain.
Qian Shulan ran over immediately. Li Chunhua was also frightened and quickly climbed up from Xiaolian. The two of them helped Xiaolian up together.
Xiaomei and Xiaohe also ran out of the house. When they saw their grandmother, they were so frightened that they dared not move.
Xiaolian cried until her eyes were swollen, "Grandma, grandma, mom bullied me."
Qian Shulan frowned and said to Li Chunhua, "Tell me, what happened?"
Li Chunhua lowered her head, not daring to lie to her mother-in-law, and stumblingly told her the whole story.
Qian Shulan's face darkened. "How can you be such a mother? Xiaolian was beaten like this, and you don't feel sorry for her at all? And, Xuemei gave Xiaolian the cloth as compensation, but you made clothes for Xiaomei? Is there something wrong with your brain?"
Li Chunhua was scolded by Qian Shulan in front of the children. She felt humiliated and wronged. Her eyes turned red and tears flowed down. "Mom, I don't want to do it either. Isn't Xiaomei grown up? It's time for her to meet someone else. She is at the age where she needs to dress up. It will be in time for Xiaomei to get married and do it for the two children."
Qian Shulan frowned, "Don't change the subject. I don't care how you distribute it, but this piece of cloth belongs to Xiaolian, you shouldn't make your own decisions. You are so partial to one and the other, aren't you afraid that Xiaohe and Xiaolian will blame you for being partial?"
Li Chunhua wiped her tears stiffly, and turned her head to look at Xiao He and Xiao Lian. One of them had an angry look on her face, and the other was crying, waiting to see her make a fool of herself.
They are all unfilial daughters! Li Chunhua covered her face and cried bitterly, "Mom, I don't want to do that either. But it's the same in every family. The older ones wear the clothes and then pass them on to the younger ones, and they take turns to wear them. Otherwise, the little cloth will not be enough."
Qian Shulan had never felt that Li Chunhua was so unreasonable. She emphasized again, "Am I talking to you about ordinary things? I'm talking about this piece of cloth."
Li Chunhua was so embarrassed that she kept wiping her tears with her hands.
Qian Shulan went straight into the house and took the piece of floral cloth away. "I'll keep this cloth for now. You should reflect on this. They are all your children. You can't be too partial to them."
Li Chunhua stood stiffly at the door of the room, watching her mother-in-law holding Xiaolian's hand and walking into the main room. She covered her face and ran into the room, throwing herself on the kang and crying.
Xiaomei came in to comfort her. Xiaohe looked happy.
Qian Shulan held Xiaolian's hand and sat on the kang.
She said to Xiaolian, "Your intention to save people is good and deserves praise. However, you used the wrong method. You made Xiaotao make a mistake. As a good sister, you should encourage her to bravely admit her mistakes instead of being punished for her."
Xiaolian lay on the kang, nodding her head. It seemed that she really realized her mistake.
Qian Shulan stopped talking about this matter and started talking to her about what kind of clothes would look good.
Although she didn't know how to make clothes, she could draw a pattern and ask Li Chunhua to make it.
No matter how brave Li Chunhua was, she wouldn't dare to disobey her.
However, Qian Shulan was also a little worried. She had thought that Li Chunhua was not difficult to deal with, but who would have thought that it was not easy at all.
Sun Daqin is extremely selfish, but Li Chunhua is too partial.
Fortunately, Zhou Xuemei only has one child, so she doesn't need to mediate.
Although Zhou Xuemei had been urging Wang Shouli to split up the family, Qian Shulan still felt that the fourth branch would be the easiest.
Both of them are ambitious. Zhou Xuemei is also very good at studying, and her grades are second only to Zhengkang.
Although the eldest brother is also very hardworking, talent is sometimes really the key to success.
After breakfast, the adults went back to work. Zhengkang and Zhengguo went to school. Xiaohe also went to the fields with the adults to earn work points. Because her grandmother said that if she pulled weeds, she could have an egg to eat.
Xiaolian put some medicine on her face and fell asleep on the kang. Zhengjun went out to find other children to play with.
Qian Shulan is washing clothes.
Xiao Tao was alone in the main room, feeling very bored. She ran to the door and saw children from the same village playing with stones outside their house.
So she went over to take a look. But as soon as she walked over, the kids jumped three feet away as if they had seen something dirty.
Xiao Tao pouted with a pitiful look on her face, "I want to play with you guys, too, okay?"
The girl in the lead, Zhaodi, immediately shook her head like a rattle and protested repeatedly, "No, no, we can't play with you."
"Yes, we won't play with you. You are sick, and my mother won't let me play with you."
As he said this, he bent down, picked up the stone, turned around and ran.
Xiao Tao saw those kids running faster than rabbits. She felt very aggrieved. Her face wrinkled and tears fell down.
Qian Shulan heard the noise, walked out of the yard, and saw Xiaotao crying so sadly.
She turned her head to glance at the backs of the children and vaguely guessed something. She sighed, turned her head to wipe Xiaotao's tears, and comforted her, "When you get better, you can play with them." After a pause, she hurriedly said, "It's the same when you play with Xiaolian."
Xiao Tao looked towards the main room with some disappointment, "Xiao Lian, she is sleeping."
Qian Shulan touched her head and held her hand as they walked home. "I'll play with you when Xiaolian wakes up. Can you help grandma peel potatoes first?"
When Xiao Tao heard that there was something to do, she stopped crying, wiped her eyes several times, nodded heavily, and said, "Okay."
Qian Shulan took out a candy from her pocket and handed it to her, "Well, Xiaotao is really good, this is a reward for you."
Xiaotao took the candy and felt embarrassed when she heard her grandmother's praise.
