Nie Qiuping rode an old bicycle and first went to school to take Qingsi home. Then she went directly to the chicken pen, took out the chicken feeding bowl, and washed it with clean water.
After cleaning it, she took a closer look at the porcelain bowl. After turning it over and over, she couldn't see anything strange. It just looked better than ordinary bowls, with some blue totems wrapped around branches.
Nie Qiuping's family was very poor when she was a child, and her parents were old. Even though she tried very hard to get her to go to school, she only dropped out of school after she was in the first year of high school. She helped her parents with farm work at home, so her education was not high. She only had a rough understanding of this kind of porcelain, which is a bit like She didn't know anything about the blue and white flowers or the others. What if this bowl was really an old thing and the pawnshop lied to her
Nie Qiuping sighed, it would be nice if he could study for two more years.
At that time, her parents were seriously ill. In order to raise money for their treatment, she was anxious and didn't know what to do. Someone happened to propose marriage to Yan Songnan. After thinking about it, Nie Qiuping got married.
She originally wanted to get some betrothal gifts to treat her parents' illnesses, but they couldn't agree. If the betrothal gifts were used to treat illnesses, her daughter would not bring any dowry with her when she got married, and she would spend the betrothal gifts given by her mother-in-law's family. The mother-in-law's family must not have a good life, so they disagreed no matter what. Not long after Nie Qiuping got married, they both died of illness one after another.
The Yan family originally despised her mother's family for being poor, and when her parents died, they even had a bad look towards her, saying that she was a person who could not be punished.
Thinking of the past, Nie Qiuping didn't feel too bitter in her heart. She had been a person who had grown up in bitter waters since she was a child. No matter how difficult life was, it was still better than death.
She got up, wrapped the small porcelain bowl in cloth, found a wooden box at home that originally contained needlework, and spread some wheat straw underneath. Then she put the bowl in, put it away carefully, and turned around to cook for Qingsi.
While eating, she asked: "Qingsi, is tomorrow Saturday?"
Qingsi nodded: "Yes."
"Can mom take you to the county seat?"
"The county seat..." Qingsi opened her eyes wide and looked confused. To her, the town was a long way away. The county seat, was it further
Nie Qiuping gave her a piece of green vegetables: "Yes, can mom take you to the county seat?"
Qingsi nodded: "Okay, but mom, isn't the county seat far away?"
"It's not very far. Let's go to town and take a bus..."
"Wow, you can make a car." Qingsi's eyes suddenly lit up. At this age, she had never made a car with four wheels.
Nie Qiuping suppressed the bitterness in her heart and nodded: "Yes, let's go there by car. Go to bed early today. We may have to get up early tomorrow."
Qingsi was very happy and nodded repeatedly: "Yeah, yeah, I'll go to bed in a while."
After eating, I washed Qingsi's feet and wiped her body with hot water before letting her go to bed.
…
After washing the dishes in the dark, Nie Qiuping came to the bedside. Qingsi had already fallen asleep. Under the dim light bulb, her fair face was slightly yellowish. Her long eyelashes seemed to be like butterfly wings that could fly at any time. Her soft bangs stuck to her The forehead, the little pink face, is bulging.
Nie Qiuping's heart softened little by little. Qingsi looked very similar to her. Looking at her daughter, she could regain her energy no matter how tired she was. She would do anything for her daughter.
As long as you don't die, life will always get better little by little.
