Li Changke was startled: "Yingying, what happened?"
“Wuwuwu…”
Qu Yingying pursed her lips for a while before finally saying, "Grandma thinks it's too expensive and won't let me have formula."
"You want me to wean——"
Weaning?
Li Changke looked at the little girl in front of him with some surprise.
Although he knew that the little girl was still young, only six or seven months old.
But, babies who are six or seven months old can eat other things and don’t need to rely on milk powder all the time, right?
He remembered that the neighbor's child was also weaned at the age of six or seven months, and ate rice porridge, egg custard, and various other things.
Now he has grown up and is still strong and healthy!
I responded: "It's okay to wean, right?"
"What do you know?" Qu Yingying blurted out angrily.
Others may have been weaned early, but she never had a single sip of breast milk.
He is weaker and has less immunity than other children.
You can also supplement more nutrition by eating milk powder.
Now it was Old Lady Qu who took it upon herself to stop her from eating.
Why don't you let her eat?
She didn't take the old lady's money.
The rice porridge made by the old lady these days is terrible, and it is even worse when sugar is added to it.
At first, Qu Yingying vomited after eating and refused to eat.
As a result, Mrs. Qu just let her starve.
She was so hungry that she had to eat.
How can rice porridge be as nutritious as milk powder?
Moreover, the other dishes of the Qu family are even less nutritious.
Every meal of Old Lady Qu consisted of either vegetables, tofu, or radish, cabbage, pickled vegetable roots, and salted peppers. It was rare to even find an egg.
In just these three days, Qu Yingying felt that she had lost a lot of weight.
If she really had to eat the same thing as Old Lady Qu and the others every meal, she felt that she would definitely suffer from malnutrition.
Then they die young before they grow up!
She noticed that Li Changke didn't seem to understand her anger about not being able to eat milk powder.
Qu Yingying calmed down a little.
She bit her lip and silently shed a few tears before she spoke weakly, "I was born weaker than others. I haven't had my mother's milk yet."
"Without milk powder and malnutrition, I will get sick and won't grow up."
"I've only been weaned for three days, and I already feel dizzy and weak."
Li Changke became anxious when he heard this: "What should we do then?"
Qu Yingying could speak at an early age and could even predict his future, which was obviously extraordinary.
He still needs this little girl to guide him in the direction of life.
She is not allowed to have any accidents.
"Wuwu..." Qu Yingying continued to cry: "Please help me persuade, grandma, I want to eat milk powder."
"good--"
Li Changke then went to see Old Lady Qu: "Grandma Qu, why has Yingying lost so much weight recently? Is she not eating well?"
"Nothing, Yingying is weaned."
Old Lady Qu waved her hand and said, "Every child needs to be thinner after weaning. After a while, they will just need to eat more."
Li Changke refused to give up and continued to persuade: "But Yingying looks so thin! She is not in good health and has never had her mother's milk. It is better to let her drink milk powder for a while longer!"
"What nonsense are you talking about!"
Old Mrs. Qu's face suddenly darkened. She hated it most when people said that she had not raised Qu Yingying well.
She immediately got angry: "My Yingying is fine, how could she be thin? Don't lie to me, little kid."
"I don't know if milk powder is good? But can we country people afford milk powder? That's easy to say."
"It's only three yuan a bag and it only lasts a few days. Are you paying for it?"
Li Changke was speechless: "I...I..."
He really didn't expect milk powder to be so expensive. It would cost three dollars just for a few days. How much would it cost in a month?
Seeing that the young man was silent after what she said, Mrs. Qu's expression softened slightly, and she began to ramble again:
"Yingying is my granddaughter, how can I not love her?"
"But we country folk can't be too particular about raising children."
"Eat whatever you have; whole grains are the most nourishing."
"What about milk powder? I've never heard of it before."
"Back then, poor families couldn't get enough food, mothers had no milk, and their children all died?"
"You can still grow up just by eating whatever you have. You'll still be strong even if you eat a lot..."
Um--
Seeing Li Changke speechless and sulking back, Qu Yingying couldn't help but curse in her heart: "Waste, another waste."
How can he be such a loser now?
In her memory of her previous life, Li Changke was a humble and polite top student when he was young.
After growing up and studying abroad, they come back and become successful elite returnees.
She has always been a confident and radiant presence among the crowd.
Qu Yingying was so disappointed that she was speechless after being confronted by an old rural lady.
But no matter how disappointed I am, I still have to get the milk powder.
It was obvious that Mrs. Qu was unlikely to change her mind.
Qu Yingying turned her attention to Li Changke again.
After Mrs. Qu said enough and went back to her housework, she looked at Li Changke with tears in her eyes and aggrieved look.
He said, "Brother Li, I think I can live a good life."
"I want to grow up quickly and spend more time with you."
"Grandma doesn't have money to buy milk powder. But my uncle has money."
"You and my uncle have a good relationship."
"Can you ask him to give me some money and buy me some milk powder?"
Well?
Li Changke doesn't know if it will work?
But he knew that Qu Songsheng's family did not like Qu Yingying.
Otherwise, why would the other party take Qu Manman to the city and leave Qu Yingying in the countryside?
However, looking at Qu Yingying's expectant eyes now.
