What happened in Mi Jiaojiao's family was no secret, but Ning Jiqiu was hurt by Liu Chunmei's attitude, and consciously avoided these things when contacting his brothers and sisters.
Now that Ning Xi asked, there was nothing he couldn't tell her, so he just gave a brief account.
That is, when a child had a high fever that wouldn't go away, there was a lack of medical care and medicine, and it was the busy farming season, so the adults were busy working in the fields, and when the child was sick, they would give him a bowl of brown sugar water.
If you wait a few days and then go to the hospital without getting better, it will be too late.
But Mi Junjie is still relatively good. He is not completely stupid and can take care of himself. He is almost the same as an eight or nine-year-old child. He understands some things, but not much.
Ning Xi:...Isn’t this a coincidence?
She asked hesitantly, "Didn't you take him to the hospital?"
Ning Jiqiu admitted: "I went to the provincial capital to check it out, but I didn't like it."
This is what Mi Jiaojiao told him. This is also what worries her, and she often blames herself.
"I'll show it to him later." Ning Xi said, smacking her lips, thinking of Mi Junjie who said he wanted to go to the mountains to catch pheasants after coming back.
"Okay." Ning Ji Qiu knew that she had changed jobs and was learning from an old Chinese doctor. He felt that she didn't have much medical skills, but he didn't discourage her. He just treated it as a practice.
Anyway, taking a pulse won’t hurt you.
It was almost dark in the evening when Mi Junjie came back from behind the house carrying a torn sack.
The pheasants had been trapped a few days ago. As the weather got warmer, the animals came out to look for food. He had a very good harvest this time, but it was difficult to go down the mountain in broad daylight, so he simply dug a lot of bamboo shoots in the bamboo forest in the mountain stream.
"No one saw it, right?" The team leader puffed on his pipe and narrowed his eyes when he saw the full bag.
Mi Junjie shook his head: "No."
His sister said that when he prepared delicious food, he must not let others see it, otherwise they would also want to eat it. However, there were not many delicious foods, so the extra ones had to be left for his sister.
So he was very careful every time he went up the mountain.
Today, with two younger sisters at home and a lot of stuff to carry, he came down the mountain a little later than before.
This is not necessary when catching eels and loaches in the fields, because everyone will try to catch them and it just depends on who has the quickest eyes and hands.
Su Yinghong poked her head out of the kitchen: "Junjie, Xiaoqiu, the two of you go to the backyard and clean up the things."
When she saw that her son came back late, she knew there was something wrong, so she boiled hot water and prepared the meal. Seeing that there were fresh bamboo shoots in the bag, she peeled two, blanched them, and fried a plate of bacon.
Pheasants are not like domestic hens. They are small in size and there is nothing left after plucking the feathers. Apart from the meat and offal, each one weighs less than one pound. There are six of them in total.
It's too late to eat chicken tonight. The aroma of cooking meat late at night is too overbearing and will easily make other families jealous. There is no need to marinate it in the cold weather, so Su Yinghong locked everything in the cabinet.
"Do you want to take one to my eldest brother's house?" Su Yinghong asked deliberately when she saw the look in her man's eyes.
The eldest sister-in-law openly and secretly laughed at the couple for being useless, and said that she wanted to adopt her youngest son Mi Qiangzhu. However, Mi Qiangzhu no longer called him uncle, but called him "Second Dad" all the time.
If you say that Mi Qiangzhu is a good person, then it is a good idea. Unfortunately, this person is a smooth talker. He only comes when there is something delicious, but makes excuses when it comes to work.
What are you thinking about when you expect people like this to provide for your retirement?
It's a pity that no one knows what Midachang is thinking. Whenever he has something delicious, he always wants to give a bite to this sly guy. She has disliked him for a long time.
Things didn't change until Jiaojiao invited Xiaoning to her house.
Mi Dachang shook his head: "No, Jiaojiao still needs to feed the baby, and Xiaoqiu needs to eat well when she comes. We can't lose face for Xiaoqiu."
For country people to do farm work, strength is the key. The son who talks more is considered strong, but Mi Dachang only has one son and one daughter, and his son is useless.
He was able to become the team leader because he met the county leaders when he took his son to see a doctor and he maintained this relationship.
Later, he led the production team to grow vegetables and supplied them to the county vegetable station, which increased the team members' income a lot. Only then did they stand up straight and no one bullied their family.
But what if he passed away one day? His children would continue to live here, so he couldn't offend his eldest brother's family too much.
Besides, although my eldest brother and his wife are harsh in their words, they are not bad-hearted, so they occasionally send things over there.
“Bang bang bang~!”
Speak of Cao Cao and he will appear.
The couple was talking when there was a loud knock on the door. The eldest sister-in-law's voice, which could penetrate the eardrums, came in: "Second brother, second brother's family, what are you doing? You locked the door before going to bed?"
She heard that there were guests coming to the second brother's house today, but why didn't he come home to tell us? Does he still care about his eldest brother and sister-in-law?
Wu Xiangju was still banging on the door with her fist raised, but it suddenly opened and almost hit Mi Dachang in the face. She quickly pulled her fist back, pretending not to see his dark face, and changed the subject:
"I said, Jiaojiao, your husband has guests at home, but you didn't tell us what it means?"
Uncle Mi beside him also chimed in: "That's right, the eldest brother is like a father. Our parents are gone now, so it's the eldest brother who should step forward if anything happens."
If he doesn't even invite him when a distinguished guest comes, where will he save face in the future?
In fact, Uncle Mi and Aunt Mi were thinking that everyone saw that the educated youth Xiao Ning received packages every day, and the relatives coming from the city would definitely bring a lot of things.
Maybe if they come and show up, people will give them something.
However, the couple also wanted to save face, so they went out of their way to cut a piece of fat meat and sat at home waiting for the second son to call them.
As a result, it was already dark when I waited, and there was no one in sight.
The couple could no longer sit still and came over with the meat, fearing that if they were too late they would get nothing.
