There are few words, I can't open my eyes, and I'll write tomorrow after sleeping.

Coming back from the grain store, Qiu Ju first drank a large glass of cold boiled water as soon as she entered the house, and then she breathed a sigh of relief, wiped the sweat on her forehead with her sleeve, and pushed the door with "Miss ......", and the east room was quiet.
"Where have all the people gone?" Qiu Ju looked around, then returned to the yard to put away the cornmeal she had just bought, and turned around and walked towards the backyard.
Zhen Siniang was sweating profusely sitting in front of the stove stirring a pot full of translucent glue, and the magpie was sitting on the edge of the stove pit and pulling the bellows, while looking after Jian Wen Jianwu who was sitting at the door peeling sunflower seeds with a smile.
There are no snacks in winter, in order to satisfy the children's cravings, Zhen Shi Niang deliberately planted a lot of sunflowers around the yard, cut them more than ten days ago and threw them on the roof to dry, they were already dry, Jian Wu was holding a sunflower head the size of a plate, rubbing it with his small hands, and the upper layer of wilted small yellow calyx fell to the ground, and then started from the side, pulling down one by one, and when he pulled out a small piece of space, he began to rub it down with his small hands, and soon a bunch of sunflower seeds like a hill were piled up in the dustpan under his feet. Chewing with relish, smacking his mouth, "...... The melon seeds are so delicious! ”
"Well...... Zhen Siniang nodded with a smile and encouraged, "It's more fragrant when it's fried, Brother Wen and Brother Wu have peeled all these sunflower heads today, and poured them out of the oven at night, and I'll let Qiu Ju fry them for you to eat." ”
"Oh...... Oh...... There are ripe melon seeds to eat...... There are ripe melon seeds to eat! Jian Wu Jianwen shouted happily, "Mother, don't worry, these will be peeled out before dark!" After screaming for a while, the two of them lowered their heads and rubbed vigorously.
The magpie glanced at Zhen Shi Niang and muttered in a low voice, "...... The child is so young, and the young lady is willing to do it. Seeing Jian Wu Jianwen doing this and that every day like a little adult, her parents were distressed, and secretly asked her to persuade Zhen Siniang not to be so reluctant, so she bowed her head to Shen Zhongqi and asked him to take the child away and return to the General's Mansion.
Moreover, without children to drag her down, Zhen Siniang can be much more relaxed, and quickly take care of her body.
Zhen Siniang smiled slightly, "...... Aren't they happy. ”
A great man in a previous life said: Labor is the most glorious!
She is destined to divorce Shen Zhongchi, born in such a single-parent family, she hopes that Jian Wu Jianwen will learn to be optimistic from an early age, learn to face everything strongly, and don't feel sorry for herself because she has no father, lose the happiness she should have, and become withdrawn.
“…… Sister Qiu Ju! As he was talking, Qiu Ju pushed the door and walked in, and Jian Wen and Jian Wu called sweetly.
"Hey......" Qiu Ju bent down and touched Jian Wen Jianwu's head, "What about peeling melon seeds?" He also instructed, "When you are tired, you will rest for a while, and I will peel the rest when I finish eating." ”
"Not tired at all!" Jian Wu Jianwen shook his head at the same time, "Mother said, after these are peeled, let you fry melon seeds at night." ”
"Okay, I'll fry you after I'm done." Listening to Zhen Siniang's instructions, Qiu Ju responded with a smile, and when she looked up, she was startled when she saw Zhen Siniang sitting sweating profusely in front of the stove boiling ejiao, "...... Didn't Miss just come out of a pot the day before yesterday? How do you boil it again? Distressedly, she took out the only clean handkerchief in her pocket and wiped Zhen Siniang's sweat.
Boiling Ejiao is the most painstaking, she and the magpie can't help, every time she boils up, Zhen Siniang can't get up for a few days when she is tired, how can she withstand such a toss?
"Miss saw that the general bought so much firewood and came back, and I was afraid that I would not be able to finish it if I moved away!" The magpie muttered dissatisfied.
She also persuaded her for a long time, but her young lady just didn't listen. I have to insist on supporting my weak body and bones out of Ejiao. In the past, she could still help stir the pot and filter the slurry, but now that she is pregnant with Liujia, her belly is getting bigger and bigger day by day, so she can only sit here and pull the bellows, watching Zhen Siniang sweat profusely and anxiously.
Although Qiu Ju has strength, she is too young to do this kind of work.
Hearing the magpie's dissatisfaction, Zhen Shiniang sighed faintly.
If it was possible, she didn't want to do that either.
However, if they don't save more money before being kicked out of the ancestral house, I am afraid that their mother and son will soon have to beg on the street.
In the past, I always relied on myself to have a house and a lotus pond, even if I would be hungry in winter, but when the spring flowers bloomed, there would always be food, even if it was not good, I also had a place to live that could shelter from the wind and rain, and I knew that the day I was kicked out of the ancestral house would come sooner or later, and I had planned it early on, and I wanted to save money to open a medicine hall, but things were not forced to happen, so she had to get by.
It wasn't until Shen Zhongqi reappeared in the ancestral house that day that she realized that she couldn't even take out a tael of silver on her when it came to the end.
Not to mention opening a medicine hall, I can't even rent three thatched houses.
Thinking of what Shen Zhongqi said, even if she divorced, she would not be allowed to marry again, Zhen Shi Niang's heart sank to the bottom. There are many difficulties in her heart, but Zhen Siniang doesn't want the children to appreciate the hardships of this world too early, she quietly stirs Ejiao, and asks Qiu Ju in her mouth, "...... Cornmeal bought back? [End of chapter]
