Chapter 13: Look, a big bird is flying across the sky



She couldn't help but pinch Qing Bao's face gently.

I feel that Qingbao has gained some weight, with more flesh on his face, making it round and plump, making me want to take a bite of it.

Qing Bao hugged the sweet bubble she gave him and ran into the house to share it with Shen Yizhi, "Mom, eat it!"

Li Chuntao followed him into the house, protecting him with her hands on both sides, like an old hen protecting her cubs, afraid that he would fall.

"Well, so sweet! Baby, did you thank your auntie?" Shen Yizhi wiped the juice from the corner of Qingbao's mouth.

Li Chuntao waved her hands and said, "Why are you thanking me? I picked them from the mountains and they are not worth much."

Qing Bao thanked him very obediently, which instantly melted her heart.

Shen Yizhi poured a cup of tea for Li Chuntao, and put out the snacks such as cakes and preserved fruits that he had bought earlier, "Try it."

Li Chuntao took a piece of candied fruit, tasted it, and then stopped moving. "Sister, are you making clothes?" She glanced at the cloth in Shen Yizi's hand.

"Yes, it is."

The two of them sat together in the main room, chatting from time to time, talking about village gossip, and finishing their work faster.

In just one afternoon, Shen Yizi had almost finished a piece of clothing, which was a bit beyond her expectations. She thought she would have to work for several days.

Strangely enough, she was able to skillfully use many of the original owner's skills without any familiarization process, as if she had always known them.

However, this should be because it has completely absorbed the original owner's memory.

Shen Yizi didn't think much about it.

She unfolded the clothes and looked at them, feeling quite satisfied. She never thought that she would make a piece of clothing with her own hands. It was such a great sense of accomplishment! Li Chuntao looked at the color and style of the clothes and couldn't help wondering, "Sister, isn't this a men's dress? Who are you making it for?"

Shen Yizhi paused. Oops, she was exposed. Why didn't she notice this? As a single mother, it would be easy for others to associate her with men's clothes.

"Well, it's like this, Chuntao. Qingming Festival is coming soon, so I thought of making a piece of clothing to burn for Qingbao's father, so that he won't have nothing to wear down there."

Li Chuntao was even more puzzled. "Qingbao's father? Sister, do you remember who your brother-in-law is?"

Shen Yizhi could only continue to make up stories: "Recently, I often dream about things from the past. Although I haven't remembered them all, I remember some of them. It's a pity that Qingbao's father died a long time ago..."

As she spoke, she wiped the non-existent tears from the corners of her eyes and lowered her head, looking extremely sad.

Li Chuntao hurriedly comforted her, "Sister, now that you have Qingbao, your life will definitely get better in the future. Stop crying, or Qingbao will cry with you..."

She wasn't very good at comforting people, so she could only bring up Qing Bao.

Qing Bao looked at his mother wiping her tears with a confused look on his face. He was small and at the moment he was leaning against her legs, he could clearly see from bottom to top that she was not crying, so he was very bewildered.

Shen Yizhi was almost amused by his confused look, and hurriedly hugged him into his arms, "Well, I won't cry anymore."

"By the way, Chuntao, I remember my name now. My last name is Shen, Shen Yizhi. From now on, you can call me Sister Zhizhi."

"Okay, Sister Zhizhi!" Li Chuntao called out without any shyness, and said enviously, "Sister Zhizhi, you must have been a daughter of a wealthy family. This is a great name. It sounds different from the names of country girls like us."

"Your name is also very nice. The peach blossoms are in full bloom in spring, shining brightly, how beautiful!"

Li Chuntao originally thought that her name was very vulgar, but after hearing her say that, she immediately became happy.

"It's already evening. I'm going to cook now. Please help me keep an eye on Qingbao. You can stay for dinner later."

Shen Yizi put down his clothes, stood up and walked towards the kitchen.

Li Chuntao was not polite: "Okay, Sister Zhizhi, you go ahead."

She was already looking forward to it, wondering what delicious food Sister Zhizhi would make? Thinking of the braised chicken with yam she sent last time, she couldn't help but start drooling.

The earthenware pot on the stove was emitting white steam and a fragrant aroma.

Shen Yizi opened the lid and poked the pig's trotter with chopsticks. It was already stewed till soft.

The soup was already there, and she planned to make some braised pork and stir-fried vegetables, which would make almost three dishes.

Li Chuntao was playing with Qingbao in the main room. When she smelled the tempting aroma wafting from the kitchen, she felt completely overwhelmed.

If she were at home, she would have already gone into the kitchen, but this was at Sister Zhizhi's house, so she had to be reserved! Qing Bao had no such concerns, and ran in with her short legs, holding onto one of Shen Yizhi's legs, and tilted her head back: "Xiangxiang, I want to eat!"

The tender red little mouth is open, like a fat little bird crying for food.

Shen Yizhi touched his head and said, "Baby, it's not healed yet, wait a little longer."

The braised pork in the pot was still simmering, making bubbling sounds. She picked up Qing Bao and licked the soup with chopsticks for him.

Qing Bao squinted his eyes because of the fragrance and bit the chopsticks, refusing to let go.

Shen Yizhi was so amused that he burst into laughter, "Little foodie!"

"Medicine mother! Come and have a look, Sanwazi is stuck with a fish bone!" An anxious voice suddenly came from outside.

Shen Yizhi hurriedly put Qingbao down and walked out, then saw Li Dongsheng and his wife coming in holding their three children.

"Is it stuck by a fish bone? Did you feed it with vinegar?" She did not delay and immediately went forward to check on the child.

Li Dongsheng was so anxious that he was sweating all over his forehead. He was stunned when he heard this, "Why are you jealous?"

Shen Yizi didn't want to explain this to him now, so he went into the kitchen, got out half a bowl of vinegar, and fed it to the third child.

But after drinking the vinegar, the fish bone was still there. Sanwazi's face turned red with pain, but he didn't dare to cry out loud, because crying would make his throat hurt even more.

Shen Yizhi asked Sanwazi to open his mouth and looked inside, then quickly said to Li Chuntao, "Chuntao, go to the kitchen and get me some chopsticks and a spoon."

"Here, Sister Zhizhi!"

Li Chuntao quickly brought the things over.

Shen Yizhi took the things and said to Li Dongsheng, "Let's go outside. It's a little dim here."

Li Dongsheng immediately walked out with the child in his arms, and his wife followed closely behind him.

Shen Yizhi asked Li Dongsheng to stand facing the sun. She pressed the front half of Sanwazi's tongue with the handle of a spoon. When she saw the fishbone stuck in the throat wall, she felt relieved. It was good that she could see it.

"Third child, auntie will help you pick out the fish bone right now, don't be afraid." She slowly put the chopsticks in, and when she picked up the fish bone, she suddenly said, "Look, there's a big bird flying over in the sky!"

When Sanwazi's attention was diverted, she quickly and accurately removed the fish bone! Sanwazi started crying after realizing it, but after crying for a while, he found that his throat didn't hurt anymore.

Shen Yizhi smiled and said, "Okay, the fish bone is out. You must be careful next time. When feeding fish to children, make sure to remove all the bones."

Li Dongsheng and his wife nodded hurriedly without saying thank you.

Shen Yizhi smiled and waved his hand, "It's okay, go back."
