Chapter 69: The End of Fun, the Ten-Day Plan
She went to the paddy field to find someone, but found that one big and one small were having a lot of fun in the paddy field, and Dong Qingqing's entire villain was almost turning into a clay figure.
Both of them happily recruited Gu Shuixiu when they saw her.
Gu Shuixiu was so angry that her forehead hurt. These two heartless people were so stupid that she would wash her clothes today?
With Gu Shuixiu coming, the two of them naturally could not continue to stay in the paddy fields and were carried back by Gu Shuixiu.
Dong Chenghu was holding a fish basket in his hand, secretly looked at Gu Shuixiu's expression, and said flatteringly: "Shuixiu, there are really fish you mentioned in the paddy field. I have caught it for several days. The big one is about the same as a snake, and the small one is only a few inches long. I don't know which one is delicious, so I caught some of them all."
"Uncle, aunt, I also helped catch it. That thing is so scary, it looks like a snake, Qingqing is afraid." Dong Qingqing ran to hold Gu Shuixiu's hand with a fearful look.
Three black lines immediately appeared on Gu Shuixiu's forehead. Dong Qingqing's claws could hardly tell her true nature. She actually wanted to hold her hand?
However, although Gu Shuixiu disliked him, she still grabbed the little man's dirty hand tightly and kept scolding: "You know you are scaring and you haven't stopped your uncle, but you actually went down to make trouble. Didn't your uncle say you would come over and ask your uncle to come home for dinner? You haven't completed the task this time, how do you think you should punish me?"
When Dong Qingqing heard this, she lowered her head in shame and said in disappointment: "Uncle, Qingqing is wrong. She shouldn't have been playing around and forgot what her aunt said."
Seeing that Dong Qingqing admits her mistakes with such a good attitude, Gu Shuixiu felt both distressed and funny, "If you know you are wrong, just go back and reflect on it. Do you know if you don't use the example?"
Dong Qingqing nodded obediently. She knew that Gu Shuixiu was not angry with her and regained her smile.
Dong Chenghu laughed loudly, but Gu Shuixiu rolled her eyes and touched her head helplessly, thinking that she would go back to the room and admit her mistakes with Shuixiu, so she could not lose her uncle's majesty in front of the child.
After the three of them arrived home, Dong Yunmei was frightened to scream when she saw Dong Qingqing's embarrassing look, "Qingqing, are you falling into the quagmire? Are you injured?"
Dong Yunmei pulled Dong Qingqing over and checked it carefully. Unfortunately, Dong Qingqing was covered in mud and couldn't even see her appearance. How could she check if she had any injuries on her body?
Gu Shuixiu had no choice but to tell her about the two going to play in the paddy fields.
Dong Yunmei was so shocked that she couldn't react. She looked at Dong Qingqing, who looked like a mud monkey in front of her and cursed: "I'm worried about love. This time you did something wrong, you are punished not to eat. You all went to the bathroom and clean it up. It's really bad to see."
Dong Yunmei went into the bathroom to boil water, then went to the backyard room to get Dong Qingqing's clothes for her.
Dong Youyou and Zhang Xingchi looked at Dong Qingqing's outfit and did not dare to get close to her. The two little men regarded Dong Qingqing as a monster and shouted to escape in the yard. Finally, they followed Dong Yunmei into the backyard.
Keep Dong Qingqing and Dong Chenghu in the yard messy in the wind.
Dong Qingqing looked at Dong Chenghu with accusing eyes, and her expression seemed to be saying, "My uncle blames you, I am now disliked by my mother and younger brothers and sisters, and they even said I am a monster!"
Dong Chenghu was so innocent. He wanted to comfort Dong Qingqing, but found that he was covered in mud. He thought about it and sat in the yard with his head hanging down without saying a word.
The poor two of them were playing happily in the paddy fields, but when they returned home, they were scolded and their emotions were extremely depressed. The mood was so ups and downs that day, which was not something that Dong Qingqing could bear. As soon as it got dark, Dong Qingqing fell asleep in a daze, and was still muttering in her dream: "Mom, aunt, I dare not..."
Dong Yunmei felt so distressed! Thinking that the child hadn't eaten during the day, she went to the kitchen to stew mushrooms, eggs and meat porridge, and planned to stew her belly when Dong Qingqing woke up.
Dong Chenghu and Gu Shuixiu entered the room. Dong Chenghu immediately became timid and reviewed his actions today in a profound way. He made Gu Shuixiu happy. Then the two of them turned off the lights and lay down.
"Chenghu, it's getting colder and colder. I think you will buy some fine cotton and coarse cloth when you go to the town to get the stone mill in ten days. We will buy more cotton. Let's make a few new quilts for later use. The other children's cotton jackets are not enough to wear, so we need to make them again.
Also, our children are going to be born, and it is late winter, so warm things must be left behind. The baby's skin is delicate, and its clothes must be made of soft cotton cloth, so you can buy as much as possible."
Dong Chenghu responded, "Cheng, I'll make up for you if you want to buy."
"Then you go to the pharmacy and buy me some medicine. After all, having a baby is just a walk at the gate of hell. I have to make some preparations in advance."
Dong Chenghu was frightened by these words, and his face turned extremely pale in the dark, "Shui Xiu, how about I go and invite a doctor back? Or I'm really worried!"
"Follow! The mountains are closed after heavy snow in the deep winter. Where do you go to find a doctor? Even if there is a doctor, people are unwilling to travel through mountains and rivers with you to such an unsafe mountains for some money."
Although Gu Shuixiu said this, Dong Chenghu kept this matter in his heart, because he was thinking about hiring a doctor, so he didn't sleep well that night.
"I forgot to tell you that my father-in-law and mother-in-law are building a house recently. It is estimated that more than half of it has been built. It may be covered with beams in ten days. Then I will take some things to celebrate. If you have a big belly, don't go out."
Gu Shuixiu had no objection to this. The ancients were still very taboo about pregnant women. They generally did not allow pregnant women to go out to participate in weddings and weddings, for fear of collisions.
"At that time, you will catch some chickens, ducks and geese from our house, take some dried fish, and carry another bag of rice out. By the way, you haven't gone out to hunt much this year. This is the guy you are eating, so you can't be unfamiliar. Take advantage of the time these days to make an appointment with Brother Qingsong and Brother Qinshan to go out to hunt.
We also have small animals such as chickens, ducks, geese, and you can see if you can get a deer or a pig. It should be no problem for you to beat them. If you encounter beasts like tigers, black bears, you should retreat quickly. You can't go forward. Our family is not short of money now, so you don't have to fight for your life.
If we are lucky and have some gains, the money we get will be enough for us to spend a long time. Now we can’t go to Linhai County, but we can go to Panlong Town or Zhishui County. If we fail, we can go to Yongjia County. Anyway, it’s cold and we don’t have to worry about prey not being released.”
Dong Chenghu nodded, but hadn't hunted for a long time, and his hands were itchy. If they could hunt big things in the past few days, their hands would be more affordable. At that time, they would buy things for their children and buy some jewelry for Gu Shuixiu and Dong Yunmei to make up for the hardships they had suffered in the past.
