On the way, I hurriedly ate a bun that I had "pre-made" yesterday, drank a glass of milk, and rushed to school without stopping. As expected, I was already much late.
Qiu Yuling was rarely embarrassed, but the old principal didn't say much and let her in with a kind face.
After class, Qiu Yuling asked Wang Aihong first, "Do you want to jump rope?"
Wang Aihong paused for a moment and said that she wanted to play sandbag throwing today.
Okay, let’s go!
Qiu Yuling had a good aim. When she threw the balls outside, each ball hit one person, either the knee or the calf. Those running in the middle couldn't catch them even if they wanted to. When she was running in the middle, she was the most clever. Everyone was hit, and she was still the only one in the middle shouting provocatively, "Come on, come on."
For a novice like Wang Aihong who was eliminated as soon as she came on the court, it was another day of hating the game.
For several days in a row, whenever Wang Aihong changed a new game, Qiu Yuling actively participated.
She is also good at riding and fighting. When she carries someone on her back, she moves in an amazing way and can always get behind the enemy and attack them unexpectedly. If someone else carries her on his back, she will use all her strength, grab the person and throw him down, or kick and beat the opponent.
It's her turn to catch the sheep's crook. If the rules don't specify a limit to the step, she can catch it until the gong rings.
Gradually, she became very famous in the gaming field. When forming a team, the two sides would often quarrel over her. Even if the team was formed randomly, the side without her would shout that it was unfair.
Over time, everyone felt that not taking her was the truly fair option.
Qiu Yuling once again welcomed the good day of leaning against the wall to bask in the sun after class.
Some classmates saw that she looked so pitiful and tried to get her to join them, but once she joined, everyone else had to bask in the sun.
Forget it, it seems like she's fine being alone, let them have fun by themselves.
Great news! Qiu Yuling finally got rid of these little brats!
Having achieved great success in both her studies and her family business, Qiu Yuling finally remembered her mother's promise that she would invite her grandmother to live with her when she had her own house.
To be honest, she missed her old lady with bound feet quite a bit.
But before she could take any action, Qiu Dahe, who had been away for a long time, finally sent back a second letter.
I'm glad to hear from you. Don't worry, Mom and Dad! Life in the army is very fulfilling...
Qiu Yuling read two long pages in a rhythmic manner. Mother Qiu cried bitterly and Father Qiu rubbed his face from time to time. Qiu Yuling took the opportunity to take a look and found that his eyes were also full of tears.
Isn't that great? Her second brother said he'd grown taller and stronger, and was the first person in their company's history to be promoted for running fast. He also said he didn't have much to spend money on, as the army provided food, drink, clothing, and accessories. Postage was expensive, so he sent her the allowance he'd saved for six months in one lump sum. He also said he almost ate the roasted sweet potatoes from the stove at home in a dream...
"My son, you've suffered so much. You must not have enough to eat. Even in your dreams you can only dream of a roasted sweet potato..."
Mother Qiu couldn't help but howl. Qiu Yuling put down the letter and tried to persuade her mother, "Didn't you hear that your second brother said he was going to run away and get promoted? Why are you just crying?"
Mother Qiu gave the heartless girl a cold look. Didn't the letters from home always say nice things? It was so difficult to be promoted in the army. Her second son must have suffered so much and endured so much hardship to be able to say that so casually.
Alas~her poor river.
"Mom, stop howling like that. People out there might think something's happened at home. One, two, three, stop!"
Very good, quite obedient. Qiu Yuling took the opportunity to peel a piece of fruit candy and stuffed it into her mother's mouth.
"Sweet your lips quickly, and your heart will be sweet after it turns into water. This is what your second brother sent back to you."
Mother Qiu was forced to eat a piece of candy, but she felt it was a pity. She didn't know whether to eat it or spit it out. However, under the smiling gaze of her children, she wiped her face embarrassedly, said she was going to cook, and ran away.
Mr. Qiu and his three children looked at the package on the kang in confusion. They didn't know what to do next when Mrs. Qiu turned into the night-shade mother she used to be. She rushed in, snatched the letter, carefully put it back, and put it away together with Qiu Dahe's allowance.
"This is your second brother's money. Even if we couldn't make ends meet, let alone now, there's no point in using it. We should use these bills. They'll expire if we keep them. These Liberation shoes are for Dashan. Your feet are too small to support them. Mother will keep the candy."
The last sentence was said while staring at Qiu Yuling. Qiu Yuling touched her nose. She thought that maybe the role she played as a child was too successful, so her mother was so wary of her.
"Mom, give Dad the Liberation Shoes. My shoes are still new."
"Okay, you wear the cloth shoes first, and then wear them when I find you a wife." As for the sentence about wearing them for your father, Mother Qiu simply chose to ignore it.
Qiu Yuling followed her father to the backyard to clean up her rabbit hive. Rabbits reproduce very quickly. When they are placed in a large group, it is difficult to tell which ones are whose. Two rabbits have already starved to death due to lack of care.
Bricks are expensive now and cement is even less common, so Qiu Yuling can only brainstorm ways to place the rabbits by looking at the individual doors and windows of the rabbit houses in the space.
Seeing the broken clay pot next to her, Qiu Yuling suddenly had an idea and thought of a good idea.
According to her description, Father Qiu laid the clay pot on its side, secured it with earthen mounds, and then covered it with hay, thus building five townhouses in a row.
Try to separate the big rabbit and the baby rabbits who stay together into the same jar. The mother rabbit is really comfortable with them being separated.
A dreamless night.
The next day, although it was the weekend, Qiu Yuling still got up early and went to cut grass. Qiu's mother prepared meals in advance and steamed a basket of pumpkin and sesame buns. She kept a small half and packed most of it. She took Qiu Yuling and went to the brigade to borrow a donkey cart.
Borrow a donkey cart to pick up Yuling's grandmother.
She first went to the brigade to say hello, handed over two baskets of fresh grass to the team, and handed over four hot buns to Uncle Qiu Wu, who was in charge of the livestock. Qiu Yuling had small hands, so she handed over all the five candies she had in her fist.
Uncle Qiu Wu couldn't refuse, so he had to stay. He gave Li Qingmei detailed instructions on what to pay attention to, helped her harness the cart, and handed the donkey cart to Li Qingmei.
"Yuling's mother, go early and come back early. When you arrive, don't take the harness. Be careful of the donkey running away."
"I got it, Uncle Wu. I promise I won't be late. I'll come back after picking up Mom and return the car as soon as I get back."
"Damn!" Mother Qiu grabbed the reins and pushed the donkey cart onto the path.
It wasn't Qiu Yuling's first time riding a donkey cart, but she was even more nervous than the first time. After all, her mother was driving without a license. She even took the time to glance at Qiu Yuling and tell her to sit back down, so she could be steady.
"Hey, it's held tightly."
"Mom, can you drive a donkey cart?"
"How refreshing! Anyone can drive a donkey cart? And it's not just men who drive the animals when plowing the fields in the spring."
"Oh, then I'm relieved!"
"What are you relieved about?"
"Nothing, Mom. Does grandma know we're going to pick her up?"
"I know. When your fourth uncle delivered the hemp rope the other day, I told him that we would go pick up your grandma today."
......
The mother and daughter walked and chatted all the way. Qiu Yuling gradually felt that something was not right. Had she not ridden in a car for too long? Why did she feel cart sick?
