Duoshou: "Oh dear, I thought some of you would be used to eating this, but it turns out you're not. Oh well, never mind then."
This proves the saying "birds of a feather flock together," as none of their family members like the taste of sweet and sour sauce.
Du Le's first attempt at cooking, sweet and sour pork, ultimately ended up in the bellies of steamed buns and mantou, while the two big dogs sadly finished off the dish.
Duofu comforted the dejected Duole: "Your cooking skills are still pretty good, you just put in the wrong seasoning. You'll be more careful next time. When you go to school, you can cook with me, and the two of us will definitely make it delicious."
Dole drooped his little head and reflected, "The fire in front was too strong. I was in a hurry and didn't look carefully before putting it in the wrong place. I won't do it again."
Yu Rujia hugged the little one and encouraged him, "Our Duole is actually very outstanding. Many people your age can't even wash their own clothes, but our Duole can already cook."
"It's okay to fail once. Many things start with failure. Today's failure helps you understand where the problem lies and prevents you from making the same mistake next time, which is progress."
Duoshou pulled Duole's hand and said, "Duole is really great. At least we ate the food you made. Do you remember when I went to Wei Zhiqing's place to eat rabbit meat? I ran home and threw up right away."
"This proves that your skills are even better than Brother Li's, who was almost twenty at the time. You should be happy about that."
A glimmer of light appeared in Duole's innocent eyes: "Third Brother, you're not lying to me, are you?"
Duoshou: "I ate the food you made, and that's the best proof."
Duolu also reassured him, "Duole, the food you made is indeed not bad, it's just that we don't like that flavor. If there were people from Shuicheng here, they might like it."
Dorjee: "That's right. Even when you mess up, the food you make tastes better than some of the other people in the team. If you don't mess up, you're a master chef. Be happy."
With everyone's comforting words, Duole finally regained her confidence: "Yes, I will definitely not make a mistake again in the future."
A few days passed in the blink of an eye. Yu Rujia was idly lying on the medicine cabinet when Guan Daya angrily dragged Qi Tianxin over.
As soon as she entered the door, she shouted loudly, "Yu Zhiqing, take a look at her. Is there anything wrong with her body now? Is she able to have children?"
Qi Tianxin deliberately miscarried her child last time and pinned the blame on Guan Daya. Guan Daya, unaware of the truth, initially felt guilty and was quite accommodating to Qi Tianxin.
Unfortunately, Qi Tianxin was not a content person. After realizing Guan Daya's concession, she began to take advantage of the situation. Every few days, she would say that she was too weak to work and that she needed to eat meat to nourish herself.
These days, there's not that much meat to eat. It's not like the Yu family, where everyone is skilled enough to move freely in and out of the Ten Thousand Mountains, bringing back at least a hundred pounds of meat on a single trip.
Nowadays, many people don't get to eat meat more than a few times a year.
Guan Daya was unable to meet Qi Tianxin's demands, so she refused to go to work, citing her inability to recover her health.
As time went on, Guan Daya became dissatisfied and said she wanted to ask Yu Rujia to come and check Qi Tianxin's health to see if she was really as weak as she said, that she had to eat meat and couldn't work.
Feeling guilty, Qi Tianxin had no choice but to go to work.
They're at work, but they can't possibly do their jobs properly.
She went to the fields and spent her days slacking off, earning only two or three work points a day, which wasn't even enough to support herself.
She also frequently used the excuse of needing to take care of her health before having children to persuade Huang Changqing to ask Guan Daya for eggs.
There were eggs at home, so Guan Daya couldn't refuse them. Every few days, she would get one for Guan Daya, and her meals were the best in the house.
Despite consuming so many eggs, Qi Tianxin's belly just wouldn't swell up.
Every time this matter is brought up, Qi Tianxin always looks at Guan Daya with a wronged expression, saying that if Guan Daya hadn't ruined her body, she wouldn't be unable to get pregnant now.
After talking about it for several years, Guan Daya became famous, which led to the scene where she forcibly dragged Qi Tianxin to Yu Rujia's place.
Yu Rujia: "Qi Zhiqing, please extend your hand so I can take your pulse."
Qi Tianxin didn't want to see a doctor. She knew her situation; she wasn't pregnant not because her health wasn't good, but because she frequently took birth control pills.
The Huang family paid for the birth control pills because she said they were medicine to improve her health.
In order to give her beloved grandson a child to enjoy his company as soon as possible, Guan Daya gave her money, even though she was very unhappy that Yu Rujia didn't come to see her for a checkup but instead went to town to get medicine.
Qi Tianxin would brew a dose of medicine every few days, and the Huang family saw it all and never suspected that she was taking birth control pills instead of tonics.
Qi Tianxin was worried that Yu Rujia would take out the birth control pills, so she hesitated for a long time before reaching out.
Guan Daya was furious and directly grabbed her hand and placed it in front of Yu Rujia: "Yu Zhiqing, put it here."
Qi Tianxin wanted to pull her hand back, but she was afraid that it would be too obvious and arouse Guan Daya's suspicion, so she could only mislead Yu Rujia with words.
Qi Tianxin: "Yu Zhiqing, I often feel weak and powerless, and my menstrual cramps are particularly severe. Is this a lingering effect of my miscarriage? Can I recover by eating well or avoiding strenuous activity?"
Guan Daya's eyes were blazing with anger. This bitch, she didn't earn any work points all day and still wanted to eat good food. What a load of crap.
Yu Rujia took her pulse and said, "The damage from the miscarriage has almost healed. The reason you are experiencing the symptoms you described is because you took too many birth control pills."
"Every medicine has some side effects. You've been taking birth control pills for years, which has damaged your health. You have a very serious case of uterine coldness, and you will basically have no chance of having children in the future."
She understood Qi Tianxin's underlying meaning, but why should she lie for her?
Moreover, if she were to leave her body outside, she would have virtually no chance of getting pregnant. This is the consequence of harming both herself and others.
"What? Birth control pills? When did you take birth control pills?" Guan Daya asked in shock upon hearing the result.
Qi Tianxin's face paled slightly. She didn't want to be tied to Huang Changqing, so she didn't want to have his child. She was determined to get rid of Huang Changqing after the major reforms and return to the city to find a rich man again.
If she can no longer have children, what means can she use to keep a rich man?
Thinking of this, Qi Tianxin felt a little regretful; she shouldn't have kept taking birth control pills in order to avoid having children.
Faced with Guan Daya's questioning, Qi Tianxin, whose mind was in complete turmoil, still had to try to deceive her: "What birth control pill? I've never taken one."
Guan Daya suddenly remembered the tonic she usually took; if there was one medicine she had been taking for many years, it was this tonic.
Guan Daya loudly questioned, "Tell me, what are you usually taking—tonics or birth control pills?"
