"Fourth uncle, do you want me to ask my third brother to tutor you so that you can pick up your studies?" Qiu Yuling was sincere, but Li Qingtong thought she was mocking him. He raised his hand and hit his disrespectful niece on the head.
Qiu Yuling: ...
She went into the house again and pretended to take out ten bags of simple-packaged milk powder from the cupboard. She also used some soft cotton cloth and the hemp rope that Mrs. Qiu had twisted into small knots to make a small package. She handed it to Li Qingtong and asked her to put it together and send it to her fourth aunt.
Not only Wang Xiaotao and Qiu Yuling were there, Wu Tiejun also pretended to look after the baby and went to Li Qingju's house many times. It was almost halfway through the summer vacation, but no one came. He couldn't help but ask, "When will sister Yuling come?"
Li Qingju took the package in, but didn't rush to open it. Instead, she took out the letter. Inside the letter was a family photo, a photo of the whole family with her daughter-in-law.
Wu Tiejun caught sight of Sister Yuling out of the corner of his eye and picked it up, more anxious than Li Qingju, the actual recipient.
"The letter said Yuling wouldn't be coming. Her sister-in-law is pregnant, so Yuling is staying home to help."
"Ah?" Wu Tiejun was extremely disappointed. He and Wang Xiaotao had practiced hard for a year, and they both thought they could compete with Qiu Yuling in slingshot skills, but it turned out that the person had no intention of coming at all!
The slight thoughts from afar could not distract Qiu Yuling's mind at all.
She was busy taking care of a pregnant woman at home. My sister-in-law had been vomiting a lot since she found out she was pregnant.
She made various teas according to the old folk recipes in the book she had obtained earlier.
For example, walnut tea can be made by crushing 10 walnuts, boiling them in water with the shells, and then filtering out the residue. It can be drunk at any time. It is mainly used to treat frequent vomiting during pregnancy, vomiting acid or bitter water, dizziness, and brain swelling.
There is also grape root soup: use 30 grams of grape root, decoct in water and take it once a day.
There are also white lentil soup, perilla leaf ginger tea, perilla tangerine peel tea, ginger and amomum villosum porridge, celery, licorice and egg drop soup, mung bean and rice porridge, etc.
They are all daily ingredients that are easy to cook. I change the way they are prepared every day. Gradually, I was able to stop eating and my appetite was also improved.
Qiu Yuling managed her diet according to her tastes, trying her best to make her eat small meals frequently and ensure balanced nutrition.
Worried that something bad might happen to her nephews and nieces in the future, she spent a lot of money to have a high-tech "scan" done for Huang Duoer while she was taking a nap.
The results showed that the fetus was normal, but the adult was a little anemic. It might be because she had a severe pregnancy reaction and vomited a lot in the past few days.
But with Qiu Yuling around, these were trivial matters. Taking advantage of the pregnant woman's sleepiness, she could swiftly handle everything from scavenging for ingredients to feeding several mouths in the backyard.
Huang Duoer often sighed that when she first arrived, she thought her parents-in-law favored her sister-in-law. But after getting to know them, she realized that this child was more capable and thoughtful than the average adult.
She was a quiet person who did not do much, and apart from liking to argue with her mother-in-law about all sorts of matters, she felt that she was much better than an adult.
She also discovered that whenever she caught her mother-in-law nagging about this, her mother-in-law would fall for her tricks.
Sometimes when she gets stubborn, no one dares to say anything, let alone disobey, and only the sister-in-law can do it. Often, the sister-in-law has just taken a breath, and before she can even say one, two, three, the mother-in-law will follow suit.
During her early pregnancy, she was very grateful to her sister-in-law. Even if her own mother came, she couldn't catch up with this little guy.
Qiu Yuling didn't know that she had inadvertently become Dehua.
She just wanted to help her family members who she could get along with, and she was not reluctant to lend a hand.
Because her daughter was particularly good at these things, Qiu's mother observed her for a few days and then gave up completely. When her daughter-in-law took a break, she worked even harder, for fear that her family would become a laughing stock when it came to distributing dividends at the end of the year.
In addition to persuading her, Qiu Yuling also stepped up efforts to provide the family with supplements.
Goat milk and eggs are essential every day. She also has places to buy pheasants and wild ducks, and stews a pot for the family every few days.
She uses a variety of wild vegetables and prepares a dish every day. She also creates various kinds of noodles.
Fish in slurry, corn pudding, shaved tendon noodles, scissor noodles, roujiamo (a steamed bun with meat and vegetables), bean buns, oil-filled buns, potato puddings, elm seed and wheat rice...
The food is basically different, and there will be one or two meals of rice occasionally, but the response is average. Several laborers said that they feel hungry after eating for a while.
She was greedy and ate secretly in the space cabin. She cooked less outside and used the rice to make porridge.
No one knew where Wan Jin went to fool around with the scumbag, but she got pregnant by that scumbag. When Qiu Yuling found out, it had been several months. She suddenly had to take on the responsibility of taking care of the daily lives of two pregnant women.
The donkey in the backyard only started to feel sexual cravings when summer came. It would often yell "Ah-ang~Ah-ang~" at the top of its lungs. Qiu Yuling found a dark and windy night and gave the donkey a packet of aphrodisiac powder to make it mute.
Just kidding, after eating it, the heat in the body will be released, and you won't think about that thing anymore. Except when you are hungry or thirsty, you won't complain for no reason anymore.
Honestly, this family depends on her! Without all these things, how could we live so comfortably?
Zhang Wanhua was joking with Li Qingmei, saying that they must have eaten a lot of good food. Look at this family, they work a lot, so why do they look a little fat?
In fact, he is not fat, he just looks more energetic, with a rosy complexion and a strong body. That exceptionally healthy posture gives people the impression that everyone in his family is... so energetic!
Today, he finally had a day off, and Qiu Dashan wanted to catch some fish for his wife because Qiu Yuling had taught them about the nutritional value of fish soup.
Qiu Dashu had his previous battle record as a guarantee, so he became Qiu Dashan's backbone. When Qiu Yuling saw this, she had to follow suit.
Otherwise, it would be a joke if these two spent the whole day in the sun and came back with an empty basket.
The three siblings harnessed their horses and set off in a grand procession. Qiu Dashu thought that since the grass was lush and the water was abundant, he would surely have a good harvest, so he brought three baskets with him.
Three people arrived, one to enjoy the cool air while two worked. Qiu Yuling would occasionally send a long-distance delivery, which neither made it easy for them to harvest nor comforted them when they were about to lose their patience.
It was a rare moment of leisure, and the three of them spent most of the day at Yancao Lake.
As the sun was setting, he drove back.
Qiu Yuling had a dream while in the car. She dreamed of herself riding a tall horse, galloping across the vast grassland. She also dreamed of herself at a night market stall, ordering a paper-wrapped fish and drinking a small beer...
There was a slurping sound, and Qiu Dashu looked over and saw that his sister was drooling again.
He and Qiu Dashan both remembered the time when he almost used a mule's tail to wipe her saliva, and they both laughed at the same time.
"Big brother, third brother, what are you laughing at?" If they hadn't laughed so hard that an earthquake occurred in their dreams and woke them up, the wine would have gone through their intestines long ago.
