Chapter 7 Biting Hands
Xia Daohua sighed softly with some melancholy.
She missed the world of her previous life so much!
Although the supermarket came with her into this world, so that she no longer had to worry about food, clothing and safety, and had no worries at all; although in this world, she "stole" some family members who loved her very much...
However, in this world where everything is so unfamiliar, I may be destined to never live the same free and comfortable life as in my previous life.
If I put all my efforts into changing the world from now on, will the world change because of me?
She had read so many wonderful books, learned so much useful knowledge, and seen such a vast world... Was she really going to bury it? She was unwilling to do so!
Although she is now just a pitiful little farm girl with a shaved scalp, thick medicinal mud on the back of her head, and no autumn clothes under her cotton-padded jacket, her soul comes from another distant time and space.
From a flourishing civilization.
Is there really nothing she can do?
Xia Daohua has never been someone who gives up easily.
She thought it through. Although her own strength was insignificant, the power of knowledge and wisdom could be mobilized by far more than one person.
She didn't know how far she could go or how much she could change this era.
But as long as she tried her best, she would have no regrets.
As for the future, whether the government will come to an end with her death, and whether all the progress will be wiped out with her departure, that is not her concern.
Truth is infinite, and every inch of progress brings joy. It is enough that she has been here and brought some benefits to the world.
After figuring this out, Xia Daohua suddenly felt relaxed and became lively and cheerful.
His words and actions are actually somewhat like those of a child.
The New Year is coming soon.
Winter is the off-season for farmers, especially in Beiguan Town. The temperature can reach minus 40 degrees Celsius during the coldest time of winter. Not only is the ground frozen hard, but even the walls, doors and windows are covered with thick frost.
In such weather, the best choice is to hide indoors and spend the winter.
But “hibernating” does not mean doing nothing.
The New Year is coming soon.
Every piece of clothing and quilt for the whole family needed to be washed, starched, and mended. The quilt had to be taken apart, washed, and the cotton fluffed up before being remade.
After all, you can’t celebrate the New Year with stains!
The house and yard had to be cleaned. The roof, walls, warehouses, and firewood piles that were not cleaned on ordinary days also had to be cleaned one by one and tidy up.
In addition, this year is the first New Year after the family split up. The wives of the several families are the first to be the head of the family, and they are all secretly competing with each other, trying their best to show off!
Although Jiang was gentle and docile in nature, she was no exception in this regard.
She was so busy that she had no time to rest. Xia Youtian offered to help her, but she refused. Xia Youtian had no choice but to find work for himself and clean up the firewood pile in the fourth room.
Lihua, Wulang, Daohua, and Linghua were also busy running around.
The twelve-year-old Lihua was nimble, diligent and capable, and could already do the work of half an adult. She could even scrub the thick quilt covers on the washboard until they made a rustling sound.
The ten-year-old Golang was also steady and reliable. He could quickly clean up the ashes in the stove pit, quickly clear the grate, and raise the broom high to clean the spider webs in the corners of the roof.
Although eight-year-old Daohua and five-year-old Linghua also joined in the fun, their actions basically only added to the chaos.
When Daohua was washing dishes, she felt the water was too cold and there was no detergent, so she frowned so hard that a fly could be killed. Not only did she waste a lot of wood ash, but she also almost smashed the dishes by mistake.
The most important thing was that Jiang had to redo all the dishes she had washed.
Linghua was able to help Jiang get some onions and pass some garlic, but when she was helping Jiang get the wash basin, she suddenly tripped over a stone and fell with a "bang".
Fortunately, the basin is fine.
However, Linghua was in so much pain that her eyes were filled with tears.
Jiang had a good temper. Although she was very busy and tired, she didn't say anything to her two daughters who were making things worse. Instead, Lihua, the elder sister, was more likely to get angry:
"I beg you, my two little ancestors! Go play somewhere else and don't cause trouble for me here, okay?"
Xia Daohua smiled embarrassedly and opened her mouth with a look of grievance. Linghua, who was about to burst into tears, quickly left.
Linghua was pulled by Daohua and staggered away. She managed to hold back her tears with great difficulty, but she still wanted to cry.
She likes to play with Lihua, but Lihua ignores her and even yells at her!
What’s more, Rice Flower’s head is so ugly, with an ugly-colored ointment smeared on it, which gives off a bitter, astringent and pungent smell!
Xia Daohua pulled Linghua back to the main room, fanned the fire of the small tea stove, put a pot of water in it, and then pulled Linghua to warm herself in front of the small tea stove.
Daohua couldn't help wanting to bake something on the stove. She was just thinking whether to bake potatoes, sweet potatoes, or steamed bread slices when she heard Linghua tilt her head and ask herself:
"Daohua, shall we go out and make a snowman?"
Xia Daohua shook her head and refused without hesitation. When she was a child, she loved making snowmen and playing snowball fights! But now, forget it! Not to mention that her injuries have not healed completely, even if they have healed completely, it is better not to go out in such a cold day.
These days, there is no place to get anti-inflammatory injections or glucose drips.
If you get sick, you can only see a Chinese doctor.
Seeing a Chinese doctor means that she basically cannot avoid drinking bitter Chinese medicine...When she thought about the Chinese medicine she drank these days, she felt the root of her tongue was numb with bitterness.
Spare her!
Linghua wrinkled her chubby face and her big round eyes were filled with tears. She saw that the flood was about to break through the dam and the thunder in the clear sky was about to explode in her ears. It happened in a flash!
Xia Daohua quickly took out a candy ball that was covered with fingerprints and teeth marks and stuffed it into Linghua's open mouth in the blink of an eye.
This candy ball was given to her by Goro last time as a reward for her pinching her nose and drinking a large bowl of black bitter medicine. But perhaps it was hidden for too long, and there were many suspicious marks and colors on this candy ball.
Of course Xia Daohua couldn't eat it, but she didn't feel comfortable throwing it away in front of Wu Lang, so she had to hide it in the storage area of the supermarket.
Just now, when I saw Linghua was about to cry, I thought quickly and offered it to her.
But Daohua still held the candy ball tightly and didn't dare to let go. She was afraid that Linghua would be too focused on crying and choking her trachea, which would be a big problem.
Linghua tasted the long-lost sweetness and looked at Xia Daohua with tears in her eyes, seeming a little unbelievable. Then she bit the candy ball in one bite, and also bit Daohua's finger.
