After Chungui received the big and small, he was also half wet. When he saw the trembling child in the old man's arms, Chungui was anxious, and directly hugged the child in Daddy Li's hand with one hand, and then stuffed the umbrella to him, shouting: "Grandpa Li, I'll go over with the child first, you come with an umbrella!" ”

Qi You was reading the book in the room, and when he heard the movement, he immediately put down the book and walked out, and at a glance he saw the children of the Li family who were trembling in Chungui's arms.

Father Li's name is Li Zhengrong, when he was young, he earned a little family foundation with his strength, married his daughter-in-law and gave birth to a son, but unfortunately his son died of illness, and his daughter-in-law couldn't stand it and threw down his three children to remarry, and since then Father Li and his wife have taken over the responsibility of raising their grandson. The first two grandsons were strong and gradually grew older, but this third grandson was the only one.

This child is the third in line, named Li Zhiyuan, born with a disease, much weaker than the child next to him, although he is two years younger than Zhimin, but he looks about the same age as Zhiping. The second elder of the Li family and the two elder brothers above Zhiyuan are dedicated to this child, and even the usual food is polished rice cereal. When there was no food during the great drought, he sold his land for grain for this child.

Zhiping tilted his head and looked at the little brother in front of him, but the child of the Li family was pale, his lips were slightly open, his expression was vigilant, and he was timid when he thought about it. Chungui didn't dare to let him go, and when Old Man Li entered the door with an umbrella, the child slowly looked at his grandfather.

Chungui touched the child's head, fortunately there was no heat, she commanded a few children: "Minmin went to his father's room to get a piece of clothing that his father used to wear and let Grandpa Li change into it, Zhiping went to the box to get you two clothes you wore, Zhixing went to put on another piece of clothing, took an umbrella and went to Dr. Li to call someone." ”

Chungui walked back and forth with the child in his arms, and coaxed him: "Such a heavy rain, although there is no fever, I have to let the doctor take a good look." ”

This Zhimin and Zhiping went to look for clothes, but Zhixing just walked to the door but stopped, he suddenly said, "Sister-in-law! I almost forgot that Dr. Li accompanied her daughter-in-law back to her mother's house in the town! I'm not coming back until tomorrow! ”

Chun Gui hurriedly looked at Qi You.

Qi You nodded: "I was just about to speak, but yesterday Dr. Li left me an ointment in advance." ”

Chungui's face is anxious, this old and young are at the age of weakness, although there is no fever at this time, but it has to be prevented!

Thinking like this, the junior of the Li family in his arms sneezed busily, his little face was red, and he looked at her blankly.

Chungui touched his forehead, it was already a little hot, and her steps back and forth suddenly paused, yes! There is still ginger at home, and she still keeps the brown sugar given by Cai's last time!

"Qi You........" was just about to hand the child to Qi You, she looked at his legs and quickly hugged the child to Zhixing: "I'll go to the kitchen to make some ginger tea, you hold it." ”

"Grandpa Li, you hurry up and change your clothes, stay at our house for a while, this rain is too big, it's inconvenient for you to take Zhiyuan, I'll make some ginger tea to drive away the cold, and then leave when the rain is light!"

The old man wiped the water on his face and nodded again and again: "Hey, Grandpa Li knows, thank you for this kid!" ”

After Chun Gui's instructions, he entered the kitchen, and was just about to sit down to light the fire, but saw Qi You also lift the curtain and walked in.

"Sister Chun, you go and prepare things, I'll make a fire, so it's faster."

Chungui hurriedly got up: "Okay, the fire is bigger, you look at your legs, don't knock it!" ”

There is a big bag of brown sugar given by Cai, this weather is the easiest for typhoid fever to enter the body, and the family is full of children, Chungui simply scooped two large spoons of water, put half of the brown sugar into the pot, and cut a whole piece of ginger, chopped into pieces. Boil such a big pot, and everyone will drink a bowl later.

Outside, Old Man Li and Li Zhiyuan had already changed their clothes, the child shrunk into his grandfather's arms and remained silent, Father Li sighed, looked at Zhiping who was now alive and kicking, and looked at his little grandson, his eyes were full of envy.

The girl who returns to the spring will take children, one by one, the big one is smart, and the little one is smart.

After a while, Chungui took a stack of bowls in one hand, lifted the curtain with the other, and Qi You came out with a whole pot of brown sugar ginger tea. A strong smell of ginger poured out of his face, which stimulated several children enough.

Daddy Li is old and has a lot of things, and when he smells it, he smells ginger.

After raining for so long, the old man was also very cold, and his voice was a little trembling: "Girl, do you still have ginger?" ”

Chungui put a few bowls in his hand one by one, put the first one in front of Daddy Li, picked up the spoon and scooped it up: "Grandpa Li, hurry up and drink it, brown sugar and ginger are the best way to ward off the cold." ”

After scooping up the other bowls, she picked up one of them again and fed the child in Daddy Li's arms with a small wooden spoon one by one.

Li Zhiyuan is thin and small, with a pair of sunken eyes, just like the first time he saw Zhizhi, he was so distressed that he couldn't do it.

Although the child recognized his life, he also felt goodwill, and opened his mouth to drink obediently as soon as he fed it in the spring.

I fed most of the bowl like this.

Chungui touched his forehead again before asking, "Grandpa Li, why did you two go up the mountain today?" ”

Father Li touched his little grandson's forehead and sighed: "Today is my son's death, I want to go to the mountain to have a look, early in the morning Zhiyuan also said that he was going to go, I thought about taking it with me, I saw that it was about to rain and rushed down, but I didn't expect the rain to come in a hurry, and it fell halfway." ”

The rain was too late, and the two hurried down the mountain, but they didn't hide in the end.

He put the empty bowl on the table, and Chungui scooped him a big spoonful again, and persuaded: "Grandpa Li, you have been in the rain for so long, drink more." ”

Seeing this, Daddy Li wanted to excuse himself: "Spring return, this ginger was bought from a pharmacy, it's not cheap, and brown sugar also costs money, so I'll drink enough for a bowl." ”

Chungui shook his head and smiled: "Grandpa, this brown sugar was given by Sister Cai, you also know what Sister Cai's mother's family does, as for this ginger, it is now the season of winter, I have prepared one to remove the smell when stir-frying vegetables and stew soup, and the other is to ward off the cold. ”

Daddy Li couldn't push back the spring return, and drank a big bowl again. Chungui continued to feed the children, looked back at his children, and drank obediently. After feeding the child, as soon as he put down the bowl, a bowl of ginger soup appeared in front of him.

Chungui raised his eyes and saw that Qi You was holding it in one hand, and his eyes signaled: "Sister Chun is also drenched in most of it, so hurry up and drink it." ”

Chungui was stunned for a moment, lowered her head and looked at her side, sure enough, half of her clothes were dripping, she took the ginger soup and said, "It's okay, it's not wet, it's still dry inside." ”

Qi You's eyes didn't quite agree: "Sister Chun will also go to change her clothes after drinking." ”

Chun Guipin showed the insistence in his tone, and did not refute again: "Okay, I'll change it after drinking." ”

She thought about it as she drank, and felt a hint of warmth in her heart.

After about two quarters of an hour, the rain still didn't lighten, and the heat on Zhiyuan's body faded, and Daddy Li put it down.

Chungui simply moved the small table to the main hall, Zhiping and Zhimin practiced calligraphy and endorsement around the table, and Zhixing and Qi You were driven to Wenshu. Zhiping was playful, his eyes always glanced at Zhiyuan, and he didn't restrain him when he returned to spring, seeing that Zhiyuan's eyes also showed a hint of envy, she also gave him a small piece of paper and a charcoal pen, and asked him to draw together.

I was chatting with Daddy Li with or without a match.

Father Li is most worried about his little grandson's body and bones, and the most he says is Zhiyuan.

"Because of his weak body, I have always been reluctant to let people out to play with other children, and his two elder brothers are old, so that at this age, Zhiyuan has no playmates by his side." Father Li sighed, looking at Zhiping touching the face of his little grandson from time to time, although the little grandson was timid, he was extremely excited, and the two of them got along well.

Chungui watched the two children draw together, and an idea suddenly popped up in her heart, and she said tentatively: "Grandpa Li, if you don't worry, why don't you let Zhiyuan come to my house." ”

Daddy Li was stunned: "Girl, you ........."

Chun Gui continued: "You see that my family Zhiping doesn't have any playmates, just a Min Min still thinks this younger brother is playful, anyway, you will have to spring plant after the year, and Grandma Li will be too busy to cook and deliver food when she arrives, so it's better to put the child here with me." ”

Father Li is a hundred willing in his heart, but after solving the difficulty of their family having no land to plant, and now they want to help him take care of his little grandson, Father Li is quite embarrassed and can't open his mouth.

How could Chun Gui not see it, she glanced at a few children who were playing hard, and whispered: "I won't tell you, I intend to let Zhiping follow his two brothers to private school next year, and he should be enlightened at such an age, I don't know what Grandpa Li thinks?" ”

Father Li paused for a moment to understand that the two brothers in her words, one was Zhixing and the other was Qi You, and he secretly thought to himself that when he returned to the spring, he regarded Qi You as his own family.

He gritted his teeth and said, "I'll also tell you the truth, girl, our family sold the land during the drought period, and in addition to the subsistence grain, there is also a little silver. My first two grandsons had all the strength, so they thought about subsidizing the family, and the road to the imperial examination had long been broken. He shook his head: "But my little grandson, weak and timid, I really can't think of any other way to go except studying, this money for studying, I and your Grandma Li have saved for him!" ”

This is to return all the family resources to the spring.

Speaking of this, the spring return also understands, the second Li family has long wanted to let his grandson study and find a way out, but unfortunately he is weak, and second, he has no playmates for fear of being bullied, so he dragged it out until he was eight years old.

Chungui thought about it for a while: "Grandpa Li, I'm sincere, Zhiyuan doesn't go out and walk around at this age, and after a while, this temperament will be decided, and it will be even more difficult to go through the imperial examination." I also really want to find a few playmates of the same age for Zhiping to read and read together, and Sister Cai's Xiaobao often comes to the house to play together. ”

Father Li nodded straight, he knew that Xiaobao of the Cai family also knew how to read here, and he had only finished reading the thousand-character text in half a year.

Chungui continued: "Zhiping and Xiaobao are both big for you, although we Zhiping is a little naughty, but he is also a good boy, Xiaobao is even more well-behaved and sensible, plus your family Zhiyuan is careful and gentle, if these three people have fate to grow up together, I don't know what kind of creation will be in the future." ”

Daddy Li was said to be emotional, and Chun Gui was talking about taking the stall to himself, but it was indeed their family who troubled her.

He wiped his eyes and sighed: "Girl, Grandpa Li's family really doesn't know how to thank you!" ”
