"You're here again!" Lu Zhong sighed, "Cuilan, if you really sent this child away so casually, can you feel at ease when you think about it later?"
Miao Cuilan glanced at him, "I can!"
"..." Lu Zhong was completely speechless, so he could only say: "Forget it, it's getting late today, let's talk about it tomorrow!"
"Fortunately, you said something plain!" Miao Cuilan snorted, "But it's not about talking about it tomorrow, it's about sending her away tomorrow!"
After a while, Miao Cuilan put her daughter who had fallen asleep after drinking full milk on the kang, and got up to cook by herself.
Lu Zhong beckoned his son Lu Qi to come over, and said, "Is there any more honey water for today?"
The couple went to the market and told their son that they fed their daughter honey water at home. Just now Lu Zhong wanted to ask his wife to feed this little doll too, but in exchange for his wife's eyes, he asked this question.
"No more." Lu Qi replied honestly.
Lu Zhong said to his son, "Go to the kitchen later and get half a bowl of rice soup."
"What are you doing making rice soup?"
"Give it to your new sister!"
Lu Qi glanced at the little baby, jumped off the kang with a small body, and said, "Then I'll go to the kitchen and watch the fire, and I'll watch the fire for mother."
"Go!"
Lu Qi agreed, and walked out on two short legs.
Not long after, Lu Qi brought a bowl of thick rice soup into the house, and said excitedly: "Father, mother went to the vegetable garden to pick vegetables, look, I brought the rice soup!"
He also felt that his mother didn't like his new sister, and secretly filled rice soup behind his mother's back. He felt proud and excited for no reason.
Lu Zhong took it with a smile, took a small spoon and began to feed Lu Zheng.
The baby in his arms is only two months old, how could he be like this in a man's family? Make a mess!
What about Lu Zheng? She was also hungry, especially when she smelled the delicious rice soup, she felt even more hungry. She stared at the spoon in the new father's hand eagerly, but she couldn't drink it when she reached her mouth. In a hurry, she twisted her body unconsciously Wa Wa cried and protested, making Lu Zhong bewildered.
When Miao Cuilan came in, she happened to see her husband's clumsy appearance and her son's eyes full of curiosity, and she couldn't help being angry and funny.
People's hearts are fleshy, and she herself is breastfeeding a baby now, and she won't be really cruel to such a baby.
She just couldn't be more angry, but someone put a doll in her car for no reason, and felt aggrieved!
After feeding my daughter just now, I saw that the little baby didn't cry or fuss, I thought she wasn't hungry, and didn't respond to her husband's words.
At this moment, seeing her crying anxiously, knowing that she was really hungry, she stepped forward and said angrily: "You are a big man, did you do this! Go, I will pick and wash the vegetables, you go fry them! I'm also tired all day, let me rest!"
Lu Zhong smiled awkwardly, put down the spoon, got up and handed the crying baby to his wife, and said softly, "Cuilan, you can't let the child starve all night, please help!"
Miao Cuilan glared at him and said angrily, "No, you're still trying to be brave!" Then she took the little baby and turned to sit down.
Lu Zhong secretly heaved a sigh of relief, and went out with a smile.
Miao Cuilan scooped up the rice soup and blew it, carefully feeding it to the baby in her arms.
Lu Zheng was so hungry that her eyes were about to light up, and she quickly opened her small mouth to suck it with relish. The fragrant and warm rice soup entered her throat, and her stomach felt relieved. After taking several mouthfuls, she finally slowed down and slowed down. Eat slowly.
It seems that the bride is not so bad, she didn't take the opportunity to pinch her ass!
After Lu Zheng ate something, he immediately developed a good impression of Miao Cuilan.
She thought for a while, waved her small hands, tightly clutching Miao Cuilan's skirt and refused to let go, her big eyes blinked at her, and her cute smile was full of attachment and intimacy.
Miao Cuilan was taken aback, her heart softened immediately, and she couldn't help sighing softly.
There was nothing to say all night.
The next morning, Miao Cuilan was wearing an apron and feeding the chickens and ducks in the yard when she saw Mrs. Li, who often came to visit, holding her two-year-old daughter Xiaoyu, yelling, "My sister is busy", and came in from outside with a smile.
"Hey, good morning, Mrs. Li!" Miao Cuilan raised her head and smiled in agreement.
Mrs. Li looked at the thirty or forty chickens and ducks scrambling for food in the yard and couldn't help secretly envious, she smiled and praised: "Your chicken is really good-looking, look at this bright and bright coat! Oh, how many times?" The hen is blushing and singing, maybe it is about to lay eggs? And this duck, at least one more catty, will be sold again soon!"
"What are you selling? It's worthless. Why don't you keep it for yourself?" Miao Cuilan said, "These animals are very edible. I don't know how much millet and vegetable husks they spent. I'm afraid they won't be able to sell for their capital. !"
"Hehe, that's true!" Mrs. Li smiled and nodded, and said again: "So I don't bother to raise so many in our family. It's really a waste of food. I raise a few for tooth-beating sacrifices during New Year's and festivals, and hens lay eggs on weekdays for a few. It’s nothing more than pocket money! Unlike your family, hehe, rich!”
"Hey, look at what you said, I'm too embarrassed to listen!" Miao Cuilan sprinkled a handful of chicken food mixed with rice bran, chopped green vegetable leaves, millet, and leftover rice on the ground, and smiled perfunctorily to Mrs. Li. It's a sour word.
"Hey," I saw Mrs. Li approaching her again, elbowing her, and smiling all over her face, "I heard that your family has an extra child? Is it a girl?"
"How do you know!" Miao Cuilan unconsciously opened her eyes wide in surprise.
"Hehe! It seems to be true!" Mrs. Li's eyes were full of interest, she couldn't help but pulled Miao Cuilan's arm and said, "Let's go, take me to have a look!"
"No, who told you?" Miao Cuilan asked snatching her hands. I was so angry in my heart, I thought this is really a good thing if you don't go out, bad things spread thousands of miles!
Mrs. Li smiled and said, "Who else can it be? Your son! He just came to visit me and said that he has a new sister, which you brought back from town yesterday! Haha, I'm not puzzled, just Come and have a look."
"..." Miao Cuilan had no choice but to be dragged into the room by Mrs. Li, cursing in her heart: When did this bastard become so talkative, I must give him a good beating later! Can such a thing be said nonsense!
At this time, Lu Zhong was chopping firewood and arranging farm tools in the backyard, and was going to go to the field to have a look later. On the kang in the room, a little girl in a pink dress and braided hair was sitting and playing with a puppet in her hand. Next to her was a pine-colored swaddle, and the baby lying in the swaddle was Lu Zheng and Lu Qi were also sitting on the kang, gesticulating with the small wooden sword his father had cut for him, helping to watch the two girls.
Seeing Miao Cuilan and Aunt Li come in, Lu Qi jumped off the kang and said with a smile, "Mother! Aunt Li!"
Mrs. Li put her daughter Xiaoyu on the kang, touched Lu Qi's head and said with a smile: "Ah Qi is getting more and more capable, and will help look after my sister, and look after two! Oh, this is That little doll was new yesterday, let me see!"
Mrs. Li couldn't help but picked up the baby.
When Miao Cuilan saw that Mrs. Li put her daughter's shoes on the kang without taking off her shoes, she couldn't help but frowned but didn't say anything.
Sister-in-law Li stretched out her fingers unconsciously to pinch Lu Zheng's pink and tender cheeks, and said with a tsk-tsk smile: "This girl is really beautiful, with pink make-up and jade carvings, she doesn't come from ordinary people's homes at first glance, no Could it be the illegitimate daughter of some rich family? I said that you are too rotten and kind. Why do you bring everyone home? You are not afraid of bringing bad luck or getting into trouble! Besides, what is the use of a girl doll? , if a male doll is a long-term worker at the head of the family, that’s fine! A female doll wastes food for nothing, and when she grows up, she has to find someone else to pay for her dowry, tsk tsk, what a loss! It’s not worth it, it’s not worth it I said you two are usually so smart, how did you do such a stupid thing!"
Mrs. Li casually hugged the swaddling baby, which made Lu Zheng very uncomfortable. She kicked her legs and waved her hands in annoyance, but it's a pity that people are weaker, so it's useless.
The way this woman looked at her and the way she spoke made her very disgusted, and she even pinched her face endlessly!
Listening to her slandering her as an illegitimate daughter and a money-loser who wasted food, Lu Zheng was so angry that she shouted in her heart that you are the illegitimate daughter, and your whole family is an illegitimate daughter! What the hell are you talking about sister? You are not the same as the one you hugged just now, you are a loser! You're so bullying, slandering my sister, and even running on my new father and bride, my sister will remember it for you!
At this time, Lu Qi ran over and pulled Aunt Li's arm and raised her head, saying, "Aunt Li, Aunt Li, my father said that it is forbidden to poke the new sister's face, and said that it would be bad if it broke!"
Mrs. Li was stunned, then retracted her hand in embarrassment, and smiled at Miao Cuilan, "Look at Aqi, I really love his 'new' sister! Hey, you don't really intend to adopt this doll, do you?"
Miao Cuilan was of course reluctant at first, but after hearing Mrs. Li's sarcasm and sarcasm just now, she deliberately wanted to bet on it, and nodded without hesitation: "Yes! This child, me and his father It's very eye-catching, anyway, isn't there a girl in our family? One sheep is herding two sheep, so let's raise them!"
"You guys are really kind! You have money and no place to spend it!" Mrs. Li lost her interest immediately after hearing this, and said, "Then do you know the origin of this child?"
"I picked it up on the way back yesterday!"
"Hey, you guys are really brave, you dare to take in such a person!"
Miao Cuilan said sternly: "That's not what you said! It was that time when I came back yesterday, and this child was crying in the grass by the roadside. If I didn't bring her back, I might call some wild beast away last night." Otherwise, I’m afraid I’ll freeze to death! Anyway, it’s a human life. If you don’t see it, forget it. If you see it, you don’t save it. Is it still a human being? You will be struck by lightning and go to hell after death. You say yes no?"
Miao Cuilan's reply was also powerful. Mrs. Li originally had a mentality of gloating and watching the excitement and jokes, so she was annoyed and embarrassed when she said these words, but she refused to admit defeat, reluctantly nodded and said with a smile: "Say That's right, anyway, it's not like you don't have the ability to support them!"
