"Only children need softer fabrics. When you are free, you can use this cotton cloth to make some small clothes and quilts. The rest can be used to make diapers." Gu Qingmeng found this fabric specially. She originally wanted to make it, and since Tian Liping wanted to make it, she gave it to her first.
Didn’t Gu Qingmeng know that Tian Liping would secretly replace the fabric?
"Oh, I understand."
Tian Liping took the fabric back to her room with a smile, intending to make it into underwear and send it to her family. As for the children's clothes, she could just modify the underwear she and her son had worn. Children's clothes didn't need to be that fine.
Lunch was prepared by the two younger brothers and Tian Liping. Ever since Gu Qingmeng fell ill, the two brothers stopped chopping wood and officially started to hibernate. They were responsible for almost all the meals a day and housework.
He also used his pocket money to buy a few chickens and ducks. He was very good at living. The two brothers wanted to take Tian Liping to school after Gu Qingmeng got married.
Don't disturb my sister and brother-in-law's lives. They don't act like a third wheel, nor do they act like a burden.
When I was in Jing City, I heard from my classmates that Hu Huochaihe could make money. When we go to Xiai City, they should be able to earn some tuition fees by lighting Hu Huochaihe. Our family is different now. We have to save as much as we can. My sister will have children in the future, and money will be needed everywhere.
Gu Guodong now had another opinion about Pei Xinghe. He didn't have a formal job, so what would happen to his sister and future nephew? He couldn't rely on the Fu family to support them. He knew that the Fu family would send pocket money to his sister every month.
But it wouldn’t be good for my sister to be supported by the Fu family after she gets married. That would be unreasonable.
Gu Qingmeng had no idea what Gu Guodong was thinking. She looked at the only dish of fried cabbage on the table and fell into deep thought. When did their family become like this?
"Guodong, we still have a lot of bacon and sausage at home, as well as a few dried chickens. You're growing up, and Auntie Tian needs some nutrition, too."
She couldn't eat the bland stir-fried cabbage in the clear soup. She had to cook tonight! She couldn't let the two brothers cook.
"Sister, wait until Uncle Fu comes to eat those things. We eat meat once a week so it's not lacking in nutrition. We steamed egg custard for you, it will be better soon. You are sick and need nutrition."
Gu Guodong has already arranged the food at home. The meat will be served to the guests at his sister's wedding, and now they can just eat whatever is available at home.
Gu Qingmeng fell silent as she looked at the only bowl of egg custard in front of her. With two younger brothers and a pregnant woman at the table, it was a bit hard for her to eat the egg custard alone.
Gu Qingmeng hesitated for a moment before saying, "Well, are there no eggs at home? We should have some salted duck eggs, right? Boiling a couple of salted duck eggs would be nice to go with rice!"
"No need to eat. In fact, we don't have to work now, so two meals will be enough." Gu Guoliang felt that their appetites were good enough, so why did they need to eat?
"Yes, starting from tomorrow we will have two meals a day at home." Gu Guodong thought his brother's suggestion was very good.
The two brothers agreed and decided to skip a meal.
Gu Qingmeng: ...
There's no need to do this, right?
Is she not hungry?
The key is that these two brothers don’t get hungry and wake up hungry at night and drink cold water.
Gu Qingmeng distributed a spoonful of egg custard to each of them, cleared her throat and said, "Take out the cured fish later and make spicy fish for dinner."
After eating cabbage and radish for a week, her throat finally got better, and she wanted to eat spicy fish in the evening.
"Sister, your throat is just getting better. You should continue to eat light food. I'll make you radish vermicelli soup tonight."
Gu Guodong frowned. "My sister's throat is just fine today, so she can't eat spicy food. Let's wait a few days before eating it!" He thought, "If you can save, save."
"I don't want to drink the carrot soup, and don't waste the vermicelli. I'll make dinner."
She doesn't want to drink radish soup, which will make her fart eight times at night. She bought vermicelli to stew chicken, and radish is not worthy of her vermicelli.
After lunch, Tian Liping followed Gu Qingmeng, obviously having something to say.
"What does Auntie Tian want to say?" Gu Qingmeng wanted to sleep on the warm kang for a while, and it would be a bit inconsiderate for Tian Liping to follow her.
"Mengmeng, I want to go out and find a job. I used to be a nurse in Beijing, so I think it should be easier to find a job here." Tian Liping passed the exam to become a nurse, and after getting married, her family asked her to give the job to her younger sister.
Now her family members were sent to the Northwest to work. She knew that she couldn't get money from Gu Qingmeng, so she had to find another way. She definitely couldn't do farm work well, so she could only pick up the job of a nurse.
When Tian Liping talked about work, Gu Qingmeng was actually stunned for a moment. Her younger brothers knew that her uncle had arranged a job for Tian Liping, but she didn't expect that they didn't tell Tian Liping.
Given Tian Liping's nature of supporting her brother, Gu Qingmeng wanted to wait for work. She wanted to wait for her grandfather to be discharged from the hospital, and then let her father and Tian Liping go to report together.
She received a letter from her father yesterday, saying that Grandpa and Pei Heixiong were much better and would be discharged from the hospital in a few days. Since they had talked about work today, it wouldn't hurt to tell her.
"I asked my uncle to arrange a job for you. It's in a hospital in Xiai City. You know about Dad and Grandpa's situation. Your brothers also need to go to school. You will all be in Xiai City from now on."
With Gu Jun watching over her, even if something goes wrong, it has nothing to do with her and won't bother her.
"If you still miss the Tian family, go with them to the Northwest for labor reform. I'm tired and want to sleep." Gu Qingmeng knocked, and then started to drive people away.
The thing she couldn't stand the most in the countryside of Northeast China was that whenever someone came to her house, they would get on the kang. She didn't like others touching her bed before, but now people get on her kang all the time. Gu Qingmeng felt very uncomfortable and had to wipe the kang several times before going to bed every day!
Gu Qingmeng lay on the kang and took a nap. She slept until three in the afternoon and felt a little unwell when she woke up.
