Chapter 171: It's a pity that there is an object
"So this is Dr. Zhang's apprentice? I haven't seen it yet. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info"
"I've seen me, I've seen it, I went to the health center last month to check my feet, and this girl poured me water to drink. ”
"People are beautiful and kind. ”
"Not only kind, but also smart. ”
"It's a pity that there is a target......"
“……”
The more you talk about it, the more crooked it becomes.
Qingling couldn't laugh or cry when she heard it: "I didn't think of that method, I went to the provincial capital a few days ago and heard what people said on the train, I don't know if it will work or not." But at that time, you should have heard about the situation, and you really couldn't think of any other way, so you tried it. Otherwise, you say, when my mother fell into the river and drowned, why didn't I save her in this way?"
"yes. The women suddenly realized.
"Anyway, Cangzhu's child's life was saved by you. You're his savior!" The fat aunt clapped her hands and concluded.
Fortunately, Widow Li's house arrived, and Qingling waved goodbye to them almost as if she had fled.
Unexpectedly, the flame of gossip burning by these people has not been extinguished, and none of them have left, and they are still enthusiastically knocking on the door for her.
"Li Qiang's daughter-in-law!
"What a guest! I'm coming!" The fat aunt squeezed open the woman who knocked on the door, knocking and shouting: "Cuiqin, open the door quickly! Cangzhu's life-saving benefactor is here!"
Widow Li heard movement in the house and came out, and when she saw that it was Qingling, she hurriedly lowered the door bolt and invited her in.
"What are you doing in broad daylight? You haven't sunned long or short, are you afraid of who will steal?" asked the straight-talking fat aunt casually.
Widow Li smiled helplessly and explained: "When I came back in the morning, you also saw that many people let their children send fish and shrimp over, and they were embarrassed to accept it. Hengzhu and our mother can't get off the ground for a while, so we just take two days off. ”
"That's right. "The fat aunt was the first to send fish over, but she sent stewed fish soup, and the children at home drank a bowl and brought a bowl to Cangzhu.
The other women were embarrassed, and they didn't get much fish, so they were willing to give them away. Zhi Wu said a few polite words, and the excuse flashed.
The fat aunt chatted a few words with Widow Li and went home.
Qingling took off the basket and went into the house to visit Li Cangzhu.
The child was asleep, with a slightly pale face and few taels of flesh. The seven-and-a-half-year-old child looks less strong than the five-year-old Shu Guigui, no wonder he is considered by everyone to be only five or six years old.
Gently closed the door, returned to the hall, took out the millet bag in the basket, and the two small crucian carp tied with straw rope on the rice bag had to be sent to the water tank immediately to raise, and then handed the bamboo basket to the widow Li who sent the fat aunt into the house: "Sister-in-law Li, the fish was brought by my master and sister, and the eggs were saved by me. The jujube is newly beaten in Brother Gangzi's house, and it has been dried for two days, and it is not very dry, you can dry it again and cook a bowl of red date soup for Cangzhu every day. ”
"What's so embarrassing!" Widow Li waved her hand again and again, refusing to accept it, "Dr. Zhang and the old couple definitely don't get much fish, so let's take it back and make up for them." I also have eggs at home, and I have two chickens behind the house, and the eggs are quite regular, and I can pick up two every day. You take these back, it's not easy for you to run a family alone. "Who would be afraid of eggs these days. I'm afraid that it will break down after a long time, but it's just a good excuse, but you can't take it seriously.
"What's more, you're getting married this year, right? You need a lot of red eggs, and it's hard to save a few, how can you give them to us. Widow Li was moved, but she refused to accept this egg no matter what.
Qingling carried it all the way, but she didn't plan to carry it back. Widow Li refused to accept it, so she sent it to the stove, and the fish were raised in the basin, and the eggs and dates were put into an empty basket.
"Sister-in-law Li, Cangzhu's age is the time to start smoking strips, don't strengthen nutrition, do you want to see him in the future and not in the middle of winter? And I really can't finish eating, you see I raised two chickens by myself, and I also helped Brother Gangzi raise two eggs and four chickens, and I saved up quickly. ”
"But ......"
"Oh, don't be, I have to go, the master and the lady are waiting for me to eat, and it's time to go to work after eating, and I'll come to see Cangzhu when I'm free." Sister-in-law, you can rest well, don't be a bamboo, you're tired. Life in the world, only living well is serious, otherwise it is empty. ”
Widow Li is actually very young, married at the age of seventeen, gave birth to a baby at the age of nineteen, and is only twenty-six this year, but her skin is rough and her complexion is dull, and she can see more than thirty or even forty, which shows how hard she works on weekdays.
After persuading Widow Li a few words, Qingling picked up the basket and left.
Widow Li sent Qingling back, and found that there was a heavy rice bag next to the table foot, and when she opened it, she saw that it was full of yellow millet, and I heard that boiling porridge and drinking it is more nourishing than rice. Thinking that it was the girl who made up for Cangzhu's body, her eyes were hot, and she almost cried.
Since her husband died, she was alone with her children, and her life could not be said to be too difficult to survive, but it was indeed poor. It's not that I don't want to deal with people, but I move around a lot, and human contacts are indispensable, so I simply close the door and live my own life.
This time the child drowned, and when she got the news, she was about to collapse. Fortunately, the heavens are above, and the Bodhisattva blesses! Oh, it is mainly thanks to the old doctor Zhang and his capable apprentices that he dragged his son back from the ghost gate. Otherwise...... Thinking of another possibility, Widow Li was afraid for a while, and stroked her chest and said "Fortunately" three times.
"Mother's ......" Li Cangzhu woke up and saw his mother sitting on the edge of the bed, looking at herself gently, pulling the corners of her mouth and smiling.
"Are you awake? Are you hungry? My mother boiled fragrant red dates and millet porridge, and I went to bring it. ”
Widow Li brought the nutritious rice porridge that was warm on the stove, helped her son sit up, and fed him spoonful by spoonful.
"These red dates and millet were both sent by the aunt from the health center who rescued you in the morning, and in addition to these, there are also thirty eggs. Her master, the gray-haired old Dr. Zhang, also asked her to bring two crucian carp over, saying that it was for you to replenish your body......"
"They're all good people. ”
"Yes, they are all kind-hearted people. You have to remember their kindness to our family, and if you have the opportunity in the future, you must remember to reciprocate. Those people in the production team, which ones are good for our family and which ones are not good for our family, my mother is clear in her heart, and you are the same, you must have clear grievances......"
"Yes! Li Cangzhu looked at Widow Li and replied seriously.
Widow Li smiled softly, picked up the bowl and continued to feed her son porridge.
After that, Qingling came to Widow Li's house twice, afraid that Widow Li would be under pressure, so she didn't bring anything more, and simply came to see Li Cangzhu.
