The next morning, Huiying was not very well at this time, her body was hot and cold, she was unconscious, and her portrait was in dire straits, so she didn't get up all day. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
In the morning, Dahan saw that she hadn't gotten up yet, so he pushed her up, but Huiying didn't even move, so she wondered, remembering that once she was sick like this, she went to touch her forehead and found that the heat was scary, so she was so frightened that she hurried to the front yard and asked his mother Yu to go to see her quickly.
Yu Shi saw that her face was flushed and knew that Huiying was sick, and she didn't seem to be lightly ill, and her own dead ghost Chen Yuanqing didn't know where to run last night, and he was still sleeping in bed at the moment.
I can't help but scold this useless daughter-in-law, I haven't given birth to an egg for two years after I got married, and now I have to spend money to see a doctor when I'm sick, don't look good-looking, it's really useless, it's not as good as Gebi's big girl, I was pregnant again a while ago, I don't know if it's because the feng shui of her ancestral tomb is not good, or the underground parents-in-law didn't bless her family more, and everything has not been very smooth in recent years.
Usually she doesn't dare to scold Huiying for being too ruthless, and when her stupid son hears it, she wants to lose her temper when she hears it, and her stupid son protects his wife tightly, which makes her sometimes very sad.
"Mother, Huiying is like this, you still scold her, go to her doctor, I don't want her to be sick!" When Dahan saw her mother, she said that Huiying was starting to be unhappy again, not to mention that Huiying was still sick.
Yu's helpless, who let her only give birth to a son, the daughter got married a few years ago, it was someone else's family, and when the two of them got old, they had to rely on these two unrelated couples, just thinking of the dead ghost who didn't know where to go last night and didn't come back all night, thinking about it, I felt bitter in my heart. Hi! Forget it, I don't think too much, so it's important to send Huiying to the local doctor in the village quickly.
The two borrowed a bulldozer from next door, and Dahan carried Huiying from the bedroom to the door, put Huiying in, and pushed the cart with his mother to see the soil doctor in the village. The people in the village didn't go to the hospital for minor problems, but went to the small clinic in the village to let the local doctor see it.
After Huiying was sent there to see, Yu took a bunch of medicines, and the two of them pushed Huiying home, these days, if anyone has a dizzy fever, the doctor will prescribe some Chinese medicine for him to take back and drink it by himself, and it is a luxury to take the injection and hang a drip.
After feeding Huiying with medicine, Dahan didn't dare to go anywhere, so he guarded Huiying by the bedside and fed her water from time to time.
Xie Mulan woke up early in the morning, as a new daughter-in-law, she didn't dare to sleep, and she had to get up early almost every day at her mother's house to cook and feed chickens and ducks to do farm work.
Changsheng saw her get up and followed her, and after the two washed, Changsheng went to the kitchen to fetch water in the village with a flat pole and a wooden bucket. Although he has a lame leg, it does not affect his daily work, especially his carpentry in the past two years is getting better and better, anyone who wants to make a big object will come to him, and the reputation is slowly out.
When he came back from carrying water, his mother also got up, Xie Mulan cooked, and his mother swept the floor to clean up the items left over from yesterday. Xie Mulan came, the family seemed to be much more popular, and when she saw that she was not a lazy person, she put her mind at ease, and treated her better in the future, although she had no feelings, the two were not very familiar with each other, but they would get along slowly in the future, and they would always have to live with her for the rest of their lives.
When he came back, his mother Chen led them to the hall to worship the ancestors and put incense on them, telling them that the Chen family had married a new daughter-in-law, and Xie Mulan would be a member of their Chen family from now on.
After worshipping the three of them to eat, breakfast is last night's remaining Mulan is all hot, now the family is not rich, all carefully calculated, yesterday's wedding banquet is rare for the peasant family to eat a good meal, all of them are open to eat, so there is not much left, some of the better ones have to be given to relatives and neighbors, there is a little bit left in their own house just enough to eat this morning, now the weather is slowly getting hotter, and there are more things left to worry about being afraid of being wasted.
The three of them ate quietly, and Widow Chen saw that although her son was opposed before marriage, she saw that he was not very repulsive to Mulan at this moment, and the two had a tacit understanding, so she put her mind at ease, and her son was very relieved to do things on his own.
After they finished eating, Chen saw that Mulan was wearing coarse cloth clothes that were still working, so he asked her to change into the red clothes she wore yesterday, and now she was going to her house to serve tea to the elders at this hour, for fear that they would wait.
Changsheng carried a basket in his hand, which contained a large pot of tea and twenty or so teacups. Chen also carried a bag of candy in his hand, and sent it to those who had children, which was their custom in Chenjiazhuang, and the new daughter-in-law was going to meet the elders the next day and let them say a few words of blessing to the newlyweds.
Although Chenjiazhuang is large, the Chen family has been divided into several branches, and there are many foreign surnames. There are few elders in Widow Chen's family, and many people died when they participated in the Anti-Japanese War and the Long March. Now there are only Uncle Chen Lingshu, the younger brother of Grandpa Changsheng, and a few cousins of his father.
Changsheng and Mulan went to visit the family under the guidance of the Chen family, although these people don't treat his family very well on weekdays, but Changsheng is the son and grandson of the Chen family, and now he is married to a new daughter-in-law, and the elders have to accept the tea ceremony of the newcomer, and the ceremony is inevitable, otherwise they will be laughed at by outsiders.
Mulan is the new daughter-in-law, she is closely following Changsheng today, and she also follows what Changsheng does, fortunately, everyone knows that she is dumb and can't speak, and no one is too difficult, Mulan was a little nervous at first, but settled down later. Because the Chen family has few generations, the whole tea ceremony process didn't take long, and they can go back.
After returning home, it was still early, so Changsheng went back to the warehouse to continue doing carpentry work, and he could take three days off when he got married, and he didn't have to go to work in the team. After Mulan came back, she helped Chen do some work and had nothing to do, so she went to dispose of her dowry, in fact, there was not much to do, her dowry was given to her brother and sister-in-law, and she didn't give her much dowry, so she made two new clothes, and a few things that Mulan could wear at home before, and then simple daily necessities such as quilts and basins. However, in this era, it was still very poor, and no one had much dowry for marrying a daughter.
Mulan looked at the big wardrobe in the room that was still very new, this should have been Changsheng's own work, much better than what he used to use in his mother's house. This is obviously a double cabinet, which can put more clothes and large items such as quilts.
When she opened the cabinet door and saw that Changsheng's clothes were neatly folded and placed on one side, the other side was obviously reserved for her, and Mulan felt significantly better when she saw this.
In fact, he grew up very well, and he was tall in reading, if he was a well-mannered scholar in ancient times, and he had craftsmanship, but one foot was a little slight, and the family composition was not good, and it was estimated that it would not be her turn for Mulan to marry him. I was angry with my grandmother and refused to marry. It seems that God has made it impossible for her to speak, but has compensated her elsewhere.
Mulan quickly placed her clothes next to Changsheng. At this time, Changsheng came in to get a paintbrush, and when he saw what Mulan was doing, he only glanced at it and didn't say anything, but Mulan's face turned red uncontrollably, and when he looked at the clothes of the two of them arranged together, he couldn't help but have his cheeks flushed like rouge, and quickly closed the cabinet door, tidied up and went out to help her make lunch.
Changsheng entered the warehouse before a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, thinking that Mulan was silently looking at the clothes they put together just now, and after being frightened by himself who came in inadvertently, he was inexplicably a little happy. Maybe Mulan doesn't reject this marriage, and it is not like the rumors in the village, Mulan is looking for death and refusing to marry before marriage.
Thinking of this Changsheng's depressed mood in the past few days, this marriage turned out to be not as unpopular as before, and a good marriage depends on the husband and wife to run together.
What Changsheng is doing now is the cabinet he promised to make, which is the big wardrobe that others made for him when he got married, and they thought it was beautiful and practical.
I have done some, but two days ago I delayed some progress because I was going to get married, and now I have to catch up, and I can earn some money to supplement the family by doing woodwork.
It wasn't until after Mulan and their lunch were finished that Widow Chen came over to ask him to eat, and Changsheng listened to the tools in his hand.
After lunch, Widow Chen was a little sleepy and went to lie down for a while, but Changsheng didn't want to rest, he still had to rush to work, Mulan was going to help him, but Changsheng refused, she didn't understand anything and couldn't help him, and finally Changsheng persuaded him to go to rest, he got up a little early in the morning, and now people will be a little sleepy at noon.
Mulan was a little embarrassed, but she still listened to Changsheng's words and rested for a while.
