Chapter 8 Then call Aunt Qiao, right?

"She embroiders with a good hand, and we can't always do these ordinary jobs, which can't make much money."

"You're trying to befriend her?"

"Yes, it cost nearly ten taels of silver just to buy those things today, and this is not counting the house that my mother rented to her."

"Mother, be careful that she is a white-eyed wolf."

"No, my mother is very accurate in seeing people, if she is a bad person, she will not let her mother help her in this way."

"Will you be there in a moment?"

"Don't go, I'll go again tomorrow, you guys hurry up and clean up, let's close the shop and go home for dinner."

Lu Ruxin said, "Mother, why don't you let your daughter go over tomorrow to cook for her, it just so happens that her daughter likes to be quiet, so she will do some embroidery over there?" ”

"Okay, then you come over for dinner at noon, and when the shop is closed in the afternoon, I'll go with your sister to pick you up?"

"Okay, mother!"

Peach Blossom Village, Lao Tian's house, during dinner, the two tables in the house were unusually quiet.

In fact, leaving a person has no impact on his family, Qiao Mai has been in the firewood room for three days, and his family is still different? I didn't see people tired to death, but someone just did more.

It's just that I was too angry with Qiao Mai here today, and the fire in my heart really couldn't be vented.

Lao Tiantou pulled his face, picked up the bowl and drank a mouthful of porridge, and others dared to eat with chopsticks.

"Whose maiden family in our village is in Lihua Village?"

"Zhou Laogui's eldest daughter-in-law," Tian Li said.

"The long-tongued woman?"

"Hmm"

"You are idle to talk to her, when she goes back to her parents' house, the ward will call Qiao's family, although we don't get along, but Qiao's family is poor, knowing that the girl and the queen will leave, they will definitely think about her, dare to break away from Sanzhuang, then let her mother's family sell her again, even if she can't sell it, you have to add some blockage to her."

Tian Li knew that her husband couldn't swallow this breath and wanted to rectify Qiao's family, so she pouted.

"That's it, I don't know if I'll survive outside."

"If you want to go, you will go."

"Got it!"

Qiao Mai didn't look at the fragrance of sleeping in the space, but she always maintained two points of vigilance, this is the habit of being an agent for many years, the child wakes up when she cries, feeds the child before sleeping, and has not eaten all night.

As soon as the morning dawned, he came out of the space, put on a thick jacket, thick cotton pants, and cotton shoes, and then went to the ground and went to the kitchen with an egg bowl and a sugar water bowl.

Seeing the neatly arranged pots and pots in the kitchen, she took a deep breath, she would definitely repay this kindness.

In movies and on TV, I saw people in the village burning stoves, and they would make fires to survive in the wild.

When she lifted the lid of the pot, she saw the millet porridge inside, and she added a handful of wheat stalks to the stove, beat them with flint, and added a handful of firewood to it.

Then go to the stove outside the bedroom and burn the kang in the same way.

As soon as I went back to the kitchen, I was going to eat, and the courtyard door rang, and Qiao Mai looked out with her head tilted, it was a little girl who was a little bit bigger.

"You are?"

"I am the eldest daughter of the shopkeeper Lu, Lu Ruxin, my mother is busy in the shop, send me to take care of you."

"You see I can move, I don't need to take care of it, you can go back."

"No, my mother said, I have to keep you for ten days before I can do it, and you can't catch a cold."

"I'm sorry, I can do it myself."

"It's okay, I'm used to doing these jobs at home."

As she spoke, Miss Ruxin entered the kitchen, "Go back to the house, I'll warm up the porridge for you and bring it over." ”

"I'll eat here, and I'll go back when I'm done."

"Okay, you sit, I'll come."

Ruxin put down the table for her, and went to the yard to move a bench for her, she peeled the eggs, put them in the pot, and put a few small spoonfuls of brown sugar into it.

Qiao Maiyuan also wanted to eat like this, she sat there obediently, waited for the pot to boil, and the eggs were hot when she touched them, and then put a big bowl for her to put in front of the table.

"Eat it while it's hot."

"Have you eaten it in the morning?"

"I only came after eating, and I will go to the shop at noon to eat with my mother and sister."

Qiao Mai took the spoon and blew in his mouth, looking at her like a core.

"You're so skinny"

"At my mother-in-law's house, two meals a day, each meal is rice soup, how can I not lose weight?"

Ruxin glanced at her chest, it was flat, there was not even a protrusion, and when she looked down at herself, she suddenly blushed.

Qiao Mai saw her expression and laughed inwardly.

"How old are you?"

"It's going to be fourteen soon, in September, my sister is twelve, and my sister and my mother are at home."

"What about your father?"

"It's gone when I went to business, and my mother didn't remarry with my sisters, but fortunately, my grandparents were very good to my mother and supported my mother, so no one dared to bully us in the town."

"Well, you have a good family."

"Grandmother is also good, but farther away, more than 200 miles away from here, my mother wants to be closer to the foreign house, it just so happens that there is no embroidery village in this town, so she opened such a shop here."

The little girl is very talkative, her eyes are clear and translucent, her face is beautiful, her fingers are slender, and she is ingenious at first glance, and she is not a scheming person.

After breakfast, she went back to the house and lay down, the kang under her was hot, and she moved the kang table to the kang and put what she brought with her on the table.

"I don't know what to call you, I see that you are not very old, but you call me my sister."

Qiao Mai looked at her tangled appearance and burst out laughing.

"It's okay to call your name,"

"No, my mother calls you sister."

"Then call Aunt Qiao, right?"

"I'm afraid I'll call you old."

"I don't dislike it, can I just shout like this?"

"Okay Aunt Qiao, I'm here to take care of you, not to spy on you, I'm tracing on the table, I won't disturb your sleep, you can rest."

"I've slept all night, how much sleep, you can describe it, I can sleep if I can, and lie down for a while if I can't sleep."

"Okay."

Looking at her looking down and drawing seriously, Qiao Mai stretched out her hand and looked at it, sure enough, it was much cleaner, I don't know, I thought she had taken a bath.

It's a pity that the hands and feet, face and neck are often exposed, and the mud is too thick, so it can't be cleaned for a while, but it's good.

She was afraid of staining the quilt, and for a while the problem of mild cleanliness came up again.

Quickly looked at the quilt, but she didn't see any dirt, so she was relieved.

said that she slept all night and felt that she had slept enough, but as soon as she entered the warm bed, her sleepiness came up after a while.

In the end, his body was too weak, and he soon fell asleep again.

At noon, Ruxin made her a bowl of pimple soup with several eggs in it.

When he brought it to the table, he shouted softly: "Aunt Qiao, wake up, it's time to eat." ”

Qiao Mai opened his eyes, quite embarrassed, "Thank you for your hard work!" ”

"Eat it while it's hot, although it's spring, but the weather is still cold, I changed the taste for you at noon, and I will boil out a mouthful of porridge before I leave at night, and then boil out eggs for you to put on, you can eat as long as it's hot, and you put the bowl after eating for a while, and I'll come back to wash it."

Ruxin picked up the drawn pattern and rolled it up, waved at her and left.

Qiao Mai sat up, guarded the kang table and quickly finished a bowl of hot pimple soup, and then flashed into the space.

It's time for the child to be fed, it's already humming.

Waiting for the good boy, she got up and searched in front of the shelves outside.

Her body is too weak to just eat enough, she remembers that she has collected several ginsengs, and those ginseng are not bought, but when she is doing tasks.

Found on the last shelf, six ginseng boxes neatly arranged, she pulled out the top box, opened it and looked at it.

She is not good at this, she only knows that she is not small, and she heard that ginseng of the last year can be of great use with only a few whiskers, so she dragged a few with her hands and stuffed them into the cuffs.

I went back to look at the child, and saw that she was asleep again, and flashed out of the space.

When I came to the kitchen, Ruxin had already cleaned the pot.

So I boiled half a pot of water, put brown sugar in it, put the ginseng whiskers in it and boiled for a while, and after drinking a bowl of red ginseng water, I sweated all over.

She knew that it was ginseng that worked.
