After entering the yard, Li Xiaojuan put her brother on the ground and said, "Be good, Changsheng. You can't pull out my flowers."
"Here, eat the grapes." The grapes that Mrs. Qiu washed for her before she left never made it into her mouth.
Li Xiaojuan just said politely, fearing that Qiu Yuling would stop persuading her, so she took her younger brother in her arms and fed him grapes while teaching him to thank his sister.
Qiu Yuling originally wanted to remind her that for a baby who is only a little over one year old, eating such granules can easily cause the particles to get stuck in the throat and esophagus, posing a risk of suffocation.
Li Xiaojuan thought that she was dissatisfied with the siblings eating too much, and a trace of unnaturalness flashed across her face, but her hands did not stop. Qiu Yuling had to explain it clearly and asked her to crush the grapes a little with her hands before feeding them to her, to be careful not to get them stuck.
"Well, thank you, Yuling. You know so much. Your house is so beautifully tidy. The yard is exactly like what the teacher described in class."
Qiu Yuling wasn't sure whether their teacher had really talked about such a courtyard, or if she was just making small talk.
After being in for half an hour, Li Xiaojuan acted as if she was just visiting. Apart from praising her house for being clean and beautiful, she also taught her brother to call her sister and thank her sister.
Qiu Yuling couldn't figure out what she was up to. After sitting there for a while, she felt really awkward, so she picked up the cloth and continued wiping.
Li Xiaojuan is also interesting. When she saw Qiu Yuling started working, she stopped holding her brother and teaching him to speak. She put the child on the ground, rolled up her sleeves and said she would do it without saying a word!
Qiu Yuling: ...
"No, no, just take care of your brother. He cleans every day. There's not much work to do. I'm just sitting there bored."
Li Xiaojuan seemed not to understand her voice-over. She refused to help with the work and sat back down. She neither said what she came for nor mentioned leaving.
"Why are you coming to my house? What do you want from me?" He didn't want to play tricks, so he just went straight to the point.
It would have been fine if you hadn't asked, but as soon as you did, Li Xiaojuan started crying, wiping her tears left and right, and the more she wiped, the more tears came.
Qiu Yuling threw down the rag, sat down calmly, and watched what she wanted to do after crying enough.
"Yuling, I, I'm really suffering. Changsheng, Changsheng is the same. Look, Changsheng is so thin. He's almost two years old, and he can't even walk steadily."
"It's normal for him to learn to walk now. In fact, he is only one year old. Why are you in such a hurry?" Let alone learning to walk at one year old, there is no need to rush even if he is two years old. It is a matter of sooner or later.
Qiu Yuling didn't think this was the main reason for looking for her, there must be other reasons.
"Yuling, your family has a light burden. Your brothers are all grown up, and you are the only child in the family. Please be kind and tell your aunt that you like Changsheng and feel sorry for him, and let your aunt take him in!"
Li Xiaojuan fell to her knees with a plop, holding Qiu Yuling's legs and continued to fight.
Qiu Yuling was so frightened that she immediately jumped away. "Are you sick? Why are you telling me all this?" She looked like a bodhisattva? Could anything be accomplished just by kneeling and praying?
Besides, what kind of thing is this! Her mother is gone, but her father is still alive. Even if her father died unexpectedly, the Li family is very large and powerful, and if they can feed each other, they won't starve to death, not to mention the team leader.
What was wrong with her that she would come to her and her house for no apparent reason?
"Yuling, Yuling, please, my mother said she saw you at that time, and it was you who gave her the dates. She said you were born kind, sent by the Bodhisattva to save her and Changsheng..."
Qiu Yuling felt like a bolt of lightning struck her head. Damn the Virgin Mary, she would never do such a good deed again.
"That's because my mother couldn't bear it, and it was inconvenient for her to go, so she asked me to run errands. What Bodhisattva or not? My aunt has also helped your family a lot, why don't you ask her to go." The aunt that Qiu Yuling mentioned is the team leader's family.
It might be the captain's instruction, or maybe he really felt sorry for the orphans and their disabled father. Anyway, he would occasionally help them, sometimes openly, sometimes secretly. She had seen him no less than five times, and every time she went home, she would tell Li Qingmei about it.
Li Xiaojuan blushed. Who said she hadn't tried? She had already tried. The captain's family's reaction was even more direct. From then on, there was no further financial support.
She had tried everything she could ask for and request in the team. She had a sudden inspiration and wanted to find Qiu Yuling today to find a different way. She thought that if Qiu Yuling insisted on adopting Changsheng, Aunt Qiu would definitely not refuse.
Qiu Yuling is not without sympathy, but her first reaction when encountering such things is to hide, and she wants to stay away from it. Not to mention the story of the farmer and the snake, just looking at Li Xiaojuan's crazy appearance and weird way of thinking, she regrets getting involved with her.
It was all because she was new here and had little knowledge. She had only seen a little of the sufferings of the world, but she tried to imitate the Goddess of Mercy. From now on, she must always abide by her duties and stay away from the lotus seat.
Not wanting to argue with a mentally abnormal person, Qiu Yuling sent her away with a cold face. Li Xiaojuan still wanted to argue, but Qiu Yuling picked up Li Changsheng who was playing in the mud, walked quickly to the door and let him go. She looked at Li Xiaojuan, shook her head towards the door, and sent her away!
Li Xiaojuan bit her lip, unwilling to let it go like this, but Li Changsheng's crying made her want to see if he was hurt from the fall.
As soon as Li Xiaojuan went out, Qiu Yuling slammed the door shut and locked it from the inside.
The more I thought about it, the more unbelievable it was. I really was a genius. I almost re-established the Way of the Holy Mother without realizing it!!!
When I’m in a bad mood, I really want to eat, but I don’t feel like cooking.
After setting up many obstacles, he quickly returned to the farm cottage.
Beer, barbecue, crayfish, ice cream, cake, turkey noodles... were ordered one after another. By the time I came to my senses, the table was already full of them.
Since you’ve already ordered, just eat as much as you want. You have to say, this high-tech pre-prepared meal has a unique flavor!
After feeling the stink of food, Qiu Yuling took a deep breath and took a milk petal bath.
After all this, my mood calmed down. I didn't want to go out and pretend to pull weeds anymore, so I just started preparing dinner.
After boiling corn and hazelnuts, I went to the backyard to dig up some leeks, put seven eggs on them, and baked a full pot of leek boxes.
The cabbages in the backyard were growing well, so I went to pick one and brought it back. In no time, I had another pot of spicy and sour cabbage.
Maybe she was full at the moment, so the food didn’t smell good and she added extra ingredients with extra force. After it came out and I took a bite, it was sour and spicy, very appetizing!
As soon as Li Qingmei entered the gate, she knew that all the arrangements for going out in the afternoon had been a waste of time.
"Woof~Woof~", Wanjin came out to cheer twice at the right time, it heard someone calling dog!
