At night, after Dabao fell asleep, Chen Afu went to the space with some candies and snacks. Jinyanzi was picky, so the things sent by Tangyuan must be good, so he brought some in for it.
As soon as I came in, I saw the golden swallow lying on the ground, laughing foolishly, with its two wings tucked into its small beak. Around it, scattered gold ornaments with pearls and gems removed were placed.
Chen Ahfu squatted down and asked, "Jin Baoer, why are you so silly?"
Golden Swallow gave her a wink, took the tip of her wing out of her mouth and said, "Mommy, you can sing such a beautiful song, why didn't you sing it to me earlier? I love listening to it, I love it, I love it."
The murmur was so soft that Chen Afu sat down on the ground all of a sudden.
I never thought that a nursery rhyme could make the little creature so excited. Chen Ahfu picked it up, held it in his palm, and sang to it again.
Little swallows, dressed in flowery clothes, come here every spring...
As Chen Afu sang, the golden swallow gently flapped its wings, its little body swaying rhythmically, and two drops of saliva unconsciously flowed from its open little pointed mouth.
Looking at the two drops of crystal clear saliva, Chen Afu suppressed his excitement and finished singing the song. Then he put Jin Yanzi on the ground with his other hand and gently clenched his hand.
She must protect these two drops of precious saliva, which are more nutritious than thousand-year-old ginseng.
Jin Yanzi didn't notice Chen Ahfu's little move. She rolled around and acted like a spoiled child for a while. She also generously used her wings to pull a few pearls and gems in front of Chen Ahfu and said flatteringly, "Mommy, these are all for you. Take them out and sell them for more money."
If she dared to sell these things, she would be immediately arrested as a gold thief or an accomplice.
Chen Ahfu shook his head and discussed, "Jinbao, Mommy thinks the leaves of Yan Chenxiang can make people clear-minded. Can you take some of the leaves and sew them into a Yanzi doll and give it to Miss Chu? Dabao said she is so pitiful, and one of her elders is also very kind. I want to help her. Also, sew some into Dabao and A Lu's pillows, so that they can become smarter and pass the imperial examination to become high officials in the future, and our lives can be better."
Jin Yanzi was so happy that she almost went silly. She said very happily, "Okay. Sister Yan'er, Chou Dabao, and Uncle Alu are all good, and I want them to live a better life. The leaves of Yan Chenxiang can indeed make people clear-headed and more focused. But it alone cannot completely cure the illness of beautiful sister. If you smell it for a long time, it can only make her feel better than before. However, the leaves are too fragrant. You can only take a tiny bit of it, the size of my eye booger, and put it in a doll or pillow so that others will not be able to smell it easily."
It was not easy to get better, and Chen Afu was overjoyed.
However, its eye boogers are so big, how big must they be?
Chen Afu said she would go out and get the scissors to cut it. Without waiting for Jin Yanzi to say that her little pointed beak could do the job, she flashed out of the space. She first took a tea bowl and scraped the two drops of saliva into the bowl, then added some warm water from the teapot, and then covered it with a lid. Then, she took the scissors and entered the space.
When Chen Ahfu left the space, she pinched a tiny bit of Yan Chenxiang leaf residue with her fingers, and told Dabao and Ah Lu to come in and get some when she made pillows for them. She held the little green dot tightly, not even daring to breathe, for fear that it would be blown away and she would lose it.
Chen Ahfu put the leaf residue in the middle of a large lump of cotton. This lump of cotton was to be used to make an extra-large swallow doll. This doll must be fancy and have a large color contrast to attract the little girl. It would be best if she could use it as a pillow when sleeping.
Chen Afu decided that the back and tail of this big swallow should be red, the wings should be bright blue, the belly should be scarlet, and some flowers should be embroidered on the wings and around the neck. This swallow should also smile particularly brightly, with its eyes curved into a slit, and the muscles at the corners of its mouth should be more curved.
She worked late and went to bed.
The next day, Chen Ahfu got up early and went to the old yard to make breakfast. She brought the tea bowl over, poured the water in it into the pot, rinsed the tea bowl with water, and poured the water back in.
Today we made rice porridge, which was so delicious that the whole family didn’t even have time to say a word. Chen Dabao even scraped the bottom of the pot clean.
He smacked his lips and said, "Why is the porridge so delicious today?"
Chen Afu was secretly happy, thinking that saliva could be so popular, only Jin Yanzi could do it.
Zhuifeng got up late and ran over following the smell, only to find that all the delicious food had been eaten. He was so sad that he shed tears. A-Lu laughed so hard that he quickly promised to let his mother make meat dumplings for lunch today.
Dabao smiled and said, "We will have lunch at Tangyuan at noon today. They have plenty of meat, so we can eat as much as we want."
After hearing this, Chen Afu said that Hu would not give up and might secretly bring Dahu and Daya to have Dabao take them to Tangyuan.
When everyone heard this, they realized that this was indeed something that Hu could do.
After washing the dishes, Chen Ahfu went back to the house to get busy, and asked Dabao to take Qiqi, Huihui, and Zhuifeng to wait in the old courtyard until after the Si hour before going to Tangyuan. Manager Luo came to pick up Dabao at this time yesterday, and Miss Chu should have gotten up by then.
He also warned Dabao that if Mrs. Hu brought Dahu and Daya, he should stay in the yard and wait for Manager Luo to pick them up, and not take the two children without permission. Chu Hanyan was sick, and Tangyuan would not let anyone scare her, and would definitely not let them in. Daya was still young and was treated very delicately. If she was scolded or beaten, or if something happened to her, it would be difficult for her family to explain, and it would also be unfair to Chen Agui and Mrs. Gao.
If Manager Luo comes, it will be up to him whether to take us or not.
Originally, Dabao wanted to go by himself today, but after this incident, he had to sit in the yard and wait.
After Wang finished her work, she hurried to the east room of the new courtyard to work with Chen Afu. She also cleverly locked the side door. Usually during the day, this door is not closed. She was afraid that when Hu sent Da Hu and Daya over, she would run to the new courtyard. If she saw the satin, she would definitely rob it.
Wang came to the east room and saw that although the room was empty, it was extremely clean. There was a small porcelain vase with a few chrysanthemums on the kang cupboard. The room was fresh and there was a faint fragrance. There was also a lark singing beautiful songs outside the window, which was extremely comfortable.
She smiled and said, "This is exactly how a bedroom should be, clean and fresh, without any smell of food or other things."
Chen Ahfu smiled and said, "When we have enough money to build a big house in the future, Mom will separate the bedroom from the living room and dining room."
Wang smiled and said, "Wait a few years, when A-Lu grows up and gets married, we'll build a big yard."
Chen Afu said nothing, thinking that when he earned more money, he would build two large courtyards.
When Wang saw the already cut satin and heard what kind of swallow it was going to be made into, she was so surprised that her mouth opened wide, "Oh my God, a swallow can wear flowery clothes, wear a flower headband, and a flowery headscarf? Only my Ah Fu could think of this."
