Because Qiu Jingwen had instructed that unless there was something special, the children should stay at home and not go out. In addition, it was hot in the summer, so all three children stayed at home and none of them went out.
Besides, the father seemed to have become fierce overnight. Not to mention anything else, he slapped Qiu Shou across the face, something they had never seen before.
Qiu Chan and Qiu Shui, who had run out, exclaimed in surprise upon seeing the gauze on their mother's head. Qiu Shui covered her mouth and asked:
"Mom, what happened to you? Your daughter is so worried about you."
Qiu Shui didn't know if she was genuinely heartbroken or deliberately exaggerating her feelings.
Jiang Yuping was deeply moved when she saw the three children come over to inquire about her injuries.
She thought to herself that her fall was worthwhile, as she could feel the children's care and love for her.
"Mom is fine, she just fell and scraped her skin a little."
Jiang Yuping comforted her children, then looked at Qiu Jingwen.
"Dad, would you please cook dinner tonight?"
"No problem, I'll be a housewife for once."
Just as Qiu Jingwen finished speaking, Qiu Shui took over the conversation.
"Dad, you keep Mom company. I'll take care of dinner."
Yes, Qiu Shui used the phrase "got it sorted out".
I don't know if it was her own original work or something she read in a novel.
Qiu Jingwen was very happy to see that her daughter had taken the initiative to do the dinner chores, which showed that her daughter had grown up.
"Qiushui, why don't you make some porridge first? When Qiuyue comes back later, have your sister make it. Anyway, it's summer, so it's okay to have dinner a little later."
As he spoke, Qiu Jingwen led his wife directly to the bedroom, settled her on the bed, and then took a bottle of soda for Jiang Yuping, opened it, and brought it to his wife's lips, letting her take a sip.
Jiang Yuping drank water while looking at her husband.
She didn't ask any further questions.
There's no point in pressing your husband about things he's unwilling to talk about.
A short while later, Qiuyue returned home.
She first went into her parents' bedroom, asked about her mother's injuries, and then worked with Qiuyue to prepare dinner, putting the porridge and pancakes on the table. Then she went back in and knocked on her parents' bedroom door.
As Qiuyue entered the bedroom, she looked at her parents and said:
"Mom and Dad, dinner is ready, let's eat."
Qiu Jingwen picked up the conversation, looking at his wife:
"Yuping, why don't you sit on the bed and I'll bring it over to feed you?"
Jiang Yuping immediately refused.
She looked at her husband and smiled gently:
“Jingwen, I’m not in postpartum confinement. This little injury is nothing. I’ll still come to the table to eat. Otherwise, the children will think I’m seriously injured.”
Qiu Jingwen didn't insist any further; he felt his wife's consideration was correct.
Besides, his wife is a doctor herself, so she should be well aware of her condition.
The family sat down and were about to start eating when Qiuyang pushed open the door and walked in.
Although he had seen his mother at the infirmary in the afternoon, he still rode his bike to the dormitory area.
The autumn harvest, the cicadas, and the autumn waters were all naturally delighted to see their brother return home.
Qiu Yang now lives in the factory dormitory with a few of his buddies from the workshop. He occasionally comes home to visit, have a meal, and then goes back to his single dormitory in the factory area.
After the family finished eating, Qiuyue was in charge of clearing away the dishes, while Qiushui was in charge of cleaning the table and floor.
Qiu Jingwen kept thinking about his meeting with Liu Han that evening.
Therefore, while his son Qiuyang chatted with his mother, he went out to the balcony to smoke by himself.
His wife was lying at home, and he needed to explain to Jiang Yuping that he was going out that evening.
Around eight o'clock, Qiu Yang told his mother that he was going downstairs back to the factory area.
Qiu Jingwen looked at the outside light and saw that it was gradually turning into darkness.
He cleared his throat before speaking to his wife:
"Yu Ping, I have something to do, I'll go out for a bit."
Jiang Yuping's first thought was that her husband needed to deal with the three thousand yuan, so she looked at Qiu Jingwen and asked in a low voice:
"Qiu Jingwen, are you going to give away three thousand yuan to someone else?"
"Yu Ping, don't ask about this anymore."
"Going out so late? You've got three thousand yuan in your pocket, haven't you?"
"It's okay, I'll tell you when I get back. Just stay home and recover, don't worry about me."
"Qiu Jingwen, I'm begging you, please? Who is this person who wants to extort three thousand yuan from you?"
Qiu Jingwen gently grasped his wife's hand, his eyes filled with tears.
