"Is this killing a child? You're crying like a grandma."
Pei Xinghe frowned. He didn't like children, except for his and Qingqing's children.
He watched his nephews and nieces grow up. When they were young, they were not loved by anyone and they just cried all the time. He thought the children of his third brother's family would be more obedient, but he didn't expect them to be like this.
Zhang Shuqin, who came out to pour water, happened to hear these words. She picked up the fire poker next to her and wanted to hit the person.
“Cough cough cough…cough cough cough, mother, I’m sick, and you still want to hit me, are you my biological child?”
Pei Xinghe was afraid of being beaten so he acted like a rogue. Anyone could tell he was pretending when he coughed.
Zhang Shuqin did put down the stick. She still felt sorry for her biological son. The way he was injured yesterday kept lingering in her mind. But she had to deal with this bad mouthing problem, so she raised her hand and pinched the inside of Pei Xinghe's arm.
"Ah! Mommy...it hurts, it hurts, I'm wrong, I'm wrong, is that okay? Meat, meat, meat...you're pinching me, I'm throwing away the meat."
Pei Xinghe begged for mercy with a smile, and put the meat in his hand in front of me, and did not forget to remind me that the pig's trotters were bought by Gu Qingmeng and the meat was bought by Pei Heixiong.
"Mengmeng, you have a lot of loose ends. Last time you came, you brought pig's trotters and small floral fabrics. And you still come here to get things every time!" Zhang Shuqin glared at Pei Xinghe and said, "The things were all bought by others, and you, as the fourth uncle, come here with nothing!"
"Mom, Qingqing and I are from the same family, and we have the same household registration book." Pei Xinghe didn't feel embarrassed at all.
He handed the meat to me, said hello to Gu Qingmeng, and went to find Pei Weidong.
"Auntie, how is Third Sister-in-law? Why is Xiaobao crying so hard?"
Xiaobao is the nickname of Pei Zhenxing's son. His real name is Pei Li, and she is also convinced by this name.
"Oh! This child is very noisy and has a strange temper." Zhang Shuqin rubbed her temples. Her children are a debt to her. She hasn't slept well for several days and now has a headache.
Gu Qingmeng didn’t know what pig hair disease was, but she felt it should be a baby skin disease?
As soon as she entered the house, she felt the heat hitting her face. With red eyes, Zhou Fang tried to comfort the crying child.
Zhang Shuqin took the child in as soon as she entered the room and said, "Don't cry during the confinement period. Xiaofang, chat with Mengmeng for a while. If you're tired, go to sleep. Don't worry, Xiaobao will be with you."
"Thank you, Mom! Thank you, Mengmeng! I haven't finished the pig's trotters you brought me last time, why did you buy another one?" Zhou Fang made room for Gu Qingmeng to sit down. She heard what Pei Xinghe said just now. Her family's Zhenxing was the best to her youngest brother.
When he was in the army, he was always thinking about Pei Xinghe and secretly saved money to buy him a job, so that he could become a glorious worker and move out of the mountains to live.
"Eat slowly. You have to feed Xiaobao, so you have to eat more."
Gu Qingmeng looked at Xiaobao and seemed to be hesitant to speak. She thought she should take the child to the hospital. There was black hair all over his back, which looked quite scary. The child must be feeling uncomfortable!
Seeing Zhang Shuqin was about to use tobacco oil to wipe the child, Gu Qingmeng quickly said, "Auntie, why don't you let Third Brother take Xiaobao to the hospital? The child is too young, and if he gets infected, it will be a big problem."
"Mengmeng is right, let Zhenxing take the child to the hospital!"
Zhou Fang is a nurse, and she didn't approve of using e-liquid to clean her face, but her mother-in-law said that this is how children in the countryside clean themselves!
Now that Gu Qingmeng suggested that the child go to the hospital, she naturally agreed with both hands. E-liquid is unreliable no matter how you look at it?
"Well... that's fine, I'll feel more at ease if I go to the hospital." Zhang Shuqin was also skeptical about the use of e-liquid to treat bronchiolitis, so she didn't dare to really try it these days.
Today, her grandson's back was covered with pig hair rash, so she wanted to give it a try. However, it was too cold outside and the child was too young to take him out. Otherwise, she would have taken the child to the hospital long ago.
Since she planned to take the child to the hospital, Zhang Shuqin quickly wrapped the child up, using almost all the small quilts she had made. She only carried the child out after wrapping the child tightly.
"Third sister-in-law, I'll go take a look, don't worry."
When Gu Qingmeng went out, she saw Pei Jianshe coming out of another room wearing his clothes, Pei Weidong with a smile on his face, and Pei Xinghe following behind Zhang Shuqin.
"Mengmeng, your third brother got a job, and the fourth brother will also have a job in the future."
Zhang Shuqin was very happy that her fourth child had a job. She felt that all her fatigue had disappeared and she could still work for another twenty years.
"Thank you, Third Brother!"
Gu Qingmeng thanked him and said that if Pei Xinghe had a job, they could live in the town and it would be more convenient for them to take care of their grandfather. She was originally anxious to find a job, but now she is not in a hurry anymore?
She didn't ask what kind of job Pei Zhenxing helped her find. After all, it shouldn't be difficult to find a job with Pei Xinghe's connections. If she didn't like it, she could just change it.
"We are all family, no need to thank me." Pei Zhenxing didn't take it seriously. It was his duty to help his younger brother find a job, and he didn't deserve to be thanked.
"Mom, why did you take the child out in such a cold weather?" Pei Xiuzhen's voice rang out.
"It's just right that you're here. Please take care of the third daughter-in-law. We'll take the child to the hospital." Zhang Shuqin gave a few instructions and took the child to the hospital.
Gu Qingmeng talked to Pei Xiuzhen for a while and found out that she had sneaked out. Since there was no one in the supply and marketing cooperative, she came to join in the fun.
After waiting for nearly an hour, Zhang Shuqin and Pei Zhenxing came back with the child. The hospital gave the child a bottle of glycerin to apply on his back, saying that the rash would go away in a few days.
This made everyone feel relieved. Knowing that the child was fine, Gu Qingmeng and Pei Xinghe left with peace of mind.
"Why don't I see Ergou and the others?" Gu Qingmeng was a little surprised. Didn't Pei Zhenxing take them home last night?
“They were afraid that there would be no bullock carts today, so they turned back in the morning.”
Pei Xinghe also felt that the village's ox cart would not come out today, because the snow on the road was a bit thick, and the mountain road would only be more difficult to walk on.
"What job did Third Brother find for you? Remember to give the money to Third Brother. Their child has just been born, so they need money a lot."
Gu Qingmeng's dream was that people had done him a favor, so he couldn't ask them to pay him money. His family was also renting a house, right?
"The pharmaceutical factory's logistics department. I'll find a yard to buy it from in a few days and give it to my third brother."
He has the best relationship with the third brother, so it would not be appropriate to give them money directly as the third brother would not accept it. It would be better to just give them a yard.
Gu Qingmeng nodded. She didn’t care about their brotherly relationship. She was just suggesting giving money.
Seeing that Pei Weidong was a little disappointed, Gu Qingmeng guessed that it was because of work. The house had already been bought, so why couldn't he do business on the black market?
He doesn't have a job, so it seems he will have to go to work to support Xiaoxue in the future. He can't be with Gu Qingmeng. Xiaoxue must be unhappy, right?
