Zhang Guishu found the quilts in the house. They were all large red silk quilts, new and looked like they had not been used much.

"Thank you, auntie," Liang Qi said with a smile. This is family!

"You're welcome. I stuffed a lot of weeds into the kang today. It's warm. Spread the quilt over it to keep it warm. Otherwise, it's too cold to cover yourself with."

After helping Liang Qi spread the quilt, the two sat on the kang and chatted. After the quilt became warm, Liang Qi took off his coat and lay down in the quilt.

It’s so warm. It’s good to have elders and someone who loves you.

During the long night, people are already sleeping soundly in their warm beds.

No one noticed, the behemoth came to visit again

A huge monster stood at the door of Liang Qi's house. It tilted its head to look at it for a while, and then slowly moved. It looked clumsy, but with a neat jump, the monster climbed over and entered the yard.

He landed nimbly and quietly, sniffing the remaining scent and arriving outside the kitchen door.

Looking at the locked kitchen, I fiddled with it a few times. From a distance, it looked like a black tower.

There was a strange sound coming from his mouth, wheezing.

He wandered around the yard again, as if marking something. He wandered around for a long time and finally looked at the door of the upper room.

He actually sat down obediently, as if looking at something or listening carefully, without saying a word.

It was hard to see what it was in the pitch-black night.

Fortunately, there was no one there, otherwise I would have been scared to death if I went out to use the toilet at night.

Just like that, a quiet night passed.

the next day.

Liang Qi was still dreaming. A strong man was doing unspeakable things on her body, but her face was not visible.

There was nothing to say about her figure. Just when she was about to get to the point, she was suddenly awakened by a slap that didn't hurt at all.

She tilted her head and saw her daughter's little hand on her face.

No wonder, the delicious food that was about to be eaten was gone just like that. Liang Qi smacked his lips.

This isn't normal for her. Why didn't she have this kind of dream when she was single? Could it be that she's had this kind of dream because she's already experienced it?

Liang Qi felt his face burning and he swallowed hard. Fortunately, no one else was awake, otherwise he would have been so embarrassed.

I can’t sleep now, so I’d better get up and go home to cook.

She quietly put on her clothes. The child was still chatting with the old man. They talked about how long they had gone to bed last night. The old man was sleeping soundly at the moment. She went home to make breakfast first and asked them to come down to eat later.

People in rural areas with better conditions have three meals a day, while those at home with average conditions have two meals a day. After breakfast, they wait for dinner.

Liang Qi left quietly, went to his own yard, opened the door as usual, and didn't notice that there was a trace left in the yard.

I made breakfast as usual. Today I just made some potato and pork ribs stewed noodles. There is not much food left at home.

I couldn't bear to finish all the fine cornmeal. What I ate before was all ground by myself on the stone mill, and I finished it. Yesterday, I wanted to grind a little more, but my attention was attracted by a pig in front of the door.

Forget about this. The food at home is almost gone, and she has to find a way to exchange some. She has been thinking about how to get some before, but it has been almost a month and she still hasn't been able to get it. Now she only has two food coupons.

This is for the New Year, so she doesn't dare to use it easily.

She took a deep breath. If she didn't get her rations, she would have to eat dirt. The few potatoes she had at home were all in a net bag.

It’s obvious that they are poor!

Scoop out a bowl of cornmeal, pour in water and start stirring. Knead it together. After a while, a dough will be formed. Cover it with a bowl so that the dough can rise well.

Liang Qi took out three more potatoes, peeled them quickly, cut them into strips, and swiftly took out the ribs that had been cooked yesterday and put in the bowl, and then took out some pork belly and cut it into small pieces.

Start stir-frying. When the pan is hot, put the pork belly in and stir-fry until it is flat and oily. Then pour in the ribs and add some salt water with a spoon. Add some peppercorns to season. Stir-fry for a few more times. Add the potatoes soaked in water and stir-fry together.

Pour in water, fill the stove with wood, and pull the bellows until the pot boils.

Slowly adding more fire, Liang Qi washed his hands, rolled out the noodles and cut them in one go.

When there are not many potatoes in the pot, put the noodles on top.

Then light the fire and it will be almost cooked after about ten minutes.

The grandmother and grandson had also woken up, and Zhang Guishu also saw that the person on the other side of the kang had already gotten up early.

"Mom?" The little phoenix's furry hair was so cute. Before he opened his eyes, his little hands came over and he snuggled into the arms of the person next to him.

Zhang Guishu looked at her granddaughter's baby appearance, put her in her quilt, hugged her gently and kissed her.

"Your mother has gone to cook. Grandma will take you downstairs to find your mother." Zhang Guishu gently touched the little phoenix's head lovingly.

"Grandma?" Little Phoenix didn't hear her mother's voice. She opened her big round eyes, looked sleepy, and paused for a few seconds before saying.

"Yes, it's grandma," Zhang Guishu said with her forehead touching the child's.

"Looking for mom." Little Phoenix didn't sleep anymore, and didn't cry. He got up and put on his clothes by himself, but he couldn't tell left from right and put them on the wrong way.

Zhang Guishu also got up. As soon as her grandson walked out of the door, she shivered. Although the sun had risen outside, the air was very cold.

"Wow, grandma, it's so cold. Let's eat and go." Little Phoenix pulled the old lady and ran.

The grandmother and grandson ran happily all the way down.

Some villagers who had gone out to look for wood were now returning in groups. They were somewhat surprised to see the old people and children happily chasing each other.

"That old man Zhang is quite young, but I've never seen him get along so happily with the villagers." Someone said quickly

"It seems so. Whose child is that?" one of them asked doubtfully.

"That seems to be Liang Qi's family."

"They are just miserable women."

No one else said anything. It was good to have a stutter these days. Liang Qi’s incident happened more than a month ago, and no one took it seriously.

By the way, Nie Zheng went out and Jiang Weidong was not seen all night. No one knew where he went, and no one knew how he got it.

The next day, when the doctor entered the ward during his rounds, he saw a person sitting with his eyes closed on the sofa not far from the patient's bed.

Nie Zheng opened his eyes suddenly when he heard the sound, and his whole body was on alert and ready to go. The doctor instantly felt like he was being stared at by a wild beast, and had the illusion that he was about to be torn apart.

The doctor was so frightened that he froze in place, unable to move. His lips trembled as he stammered, "I'm... on rounds."

Nie Zheng put away the pressure he exuded from his body. The doctor took a deep breath. No wonder the dean didn't come to check the ward. Anyone could bear it.

When Nie Zheng opened his eyes, they were covered with dense red bloodshot, and his face was covered with untidy beard, but it did not affect his noble aura at all.
