Chapter 6: Sister Wan was punished to kneel
Under the big tree, Wan Lao Si was telling Wan Lao Tai about the crimes of Wan Dasao.
Mrs. Wan knew she was in the wrong, so she smiled awkwardly at first, then hesitated and prepared to go to Boss Wan.
"Stop, come here."
Old Mrs. Wan shouted sternly.
Mrs. Wan was so frightened that she trembled and took small steps to stand in front of Old Lady Wan.
"Kneel down."
Mrs. Wan looked at the hard Tugla ground. She was only wearing a thin pair of summer pants. If she knelt down, wouldn't her knees be broken? There was still such a long way to go, who would take care of her?
"Mom, let's talk it out nicely without resorting to family rules."
Mrs. Wan smiled shamelessly.
"Today you either kneel for half an hour or don't eat. Your choice."
"What? You won't let me eat? Why?"
Mrs. Wan screamed, but immediately lowered her head due to the sharp glare from Old Lady Wan.
"I kneel..."
Mrs. Wan knelt on the ground reluctantly, and chose a place with shade from a tree.
Old Mrs. Wan ignored her little thoughts. If this woman wasn't punished today, who knows what kind of trouble she would cause when she reunited with the Wan family in the capital tomorrow?
It's a good opportunity to teach him a lesson today and tighten his belt in advance.
Mrs. Wan Er stewed a pot of warm water in a clay pot and took little Fu Baoer from Old Lady Wan's arms.
"Fubaoer, are you hungry?"
Seeing Fubao look listless, Wan Ersao felt like needles stabbing her heart.
At this time, several boys from the Wan family came over, each holding a handful of fruit in his hand.
"Sister, I am your elder brother. This is the fruit I just picked. Try it. It is very sweet."
Wan Ersao took a look and saw that they were wild strawberries, so she did not stop them.
Fubao blinked his big eyes and looked at Wanquan, and called out softly, "Big pot."
Wanquan jumped up on the spot with joy.
"Hey, sister, eat quickly."
Watch as little Fubao’s little fleshy hands grabbed a red fruit with his pitch-black claws and put it into his mouth.
Wanquan is happier than eating it himself.
It was the first time for little Fubao to eat wild fruit, but the juicy and sweet taste of the wild strawberries immediately made little Fubao's eyes widen.
"Good relative."
Little Fubao stretched out his little hand and grabbed two and put them in his mouth. His chubby little face moved and shiny saliva kept flowing out of his mouth.
His eyes curved into crescents, and the other brothers who saw him offered their fruits one after another.
"Sister, I am the second brother, and I eat the second brother's food."
"Sister, I'm the third brother, your real brother. Look, the one I picked for you is big and red."
"Humph, what real brother? We are all real brothers. Sister, I am the fourth brother. Remember that?"
Little Fubao nodded, opened his little mouth and called out "Ah---Ah---" twice.
"Four pots of pot."
The fourth child, Wan Jiang, happily touched Fubao's face. His sister's face was so smooth!
It was still plump and pink, and I really wanted to touch it again, but Wan Xi pushed me away.
"It's my turn, it's my turn, sister. I'm the fifth brother, and I'm the best looking. Remember?"
Little Fubao immediately nodded his little head, his eyes too busy to keep up.
"And me, I'm the sixth brother Wan Hu, I'll take my sister to get bird eggs in the future."
Little Fubao clapped his hands happily and kicked his two short legs excitedly.
"Okay, your sister is going to take a shower, you brats stay away."
Wan Ersao smiled and drove away the group of brats.
Wan Ersao took out a torn bed sheet and wrapped little Fubao up, then began to take off her clothes from the inside.
Looking at little Fubao's fat body, his arms and legs are as white and tender as lotus roots, so cute.
Wan Ersao carefully wiped Fubao with a towel, especially his armpits and thighs, which were most prone to sweating. If they were not wiped clean, he would be stung and develop a rash. Little Fubao must be uncomfortable.
Mrs. Wan Er suddenly discovered a red carp birthmark on Xiao Fubao's back, which looked lifelike.
Mrs. Wan looked around and saw that no one noticed, so she quickly wrapped little Fubao up again and put on his clothes.
"The meal is ready."
Before Wan Sansao shouted, the group of kids gathered around the pot had already started yelling at the top of their lungs.
A big pot of milky white fish soup and half a pot of fish meat. Because there was enough fish, the pheasant was not stewed.
Although the Wan family was so hungry that they could eat a cow, they still followed the rules and waited for Grandma Wan to start eating first before they started eating.
Old Mrs. Wan was helped over by Liu, and Boss Wan was also helped to sit up by several brothers.
Mrs. Wan San quickly put a torn bundle under Old Lady Wan's butt.
Everyone sat in a circle around the pot, watching Old Lady Wan start eating.
"Let's eat."
At a command from Old Lady Wan, more than a dozen pairs of chopsticks were inserted into the pot.
Mrs. Wan ate voraciously, filling her bowl to the brim, and kept reaching her chopsticks into the pot.
There were a lot of fish today, so Mrs. Wan cooked enough to feed the whole family. Old Mrs. Wan didn't care about Mrs. Wan, but she just looked down on her in her heart.
Wan Ersao picked up a few pieces of meat from the fish's belly and fed it to little Fubao in small mouthfuls.
Little Fubao was very hungry. He grabbed the bowl in Wan Ersao's hand with one hand and tried to grab the chopsticks in Wan Ersao's hand with the other hand.
He kept making “ah-ah-” sounds from his mouth.
Mrs. Wan was afraid that little Fubao would be scalded, so she quickly spread out his little fingers one by one and moved the bowl away.
"Be good, Fubao. Mommy will feed you. Don't worry. I'll give you enough."
Little Fubao looked at the fish in the bowl eagerly and nodded his head quickly.
Mrs. Wan Er blew the fish meat until it was warm and put it into Xiao Fubao's mouth. Xiao Fubao chewed it a few times and swallowed it.
"My dear, you should chew it several times before swallowing it, or you will have indigestion later."
Although fish is easy to digest, Fubao is still young, and Wan Ersao is worried that the child will have indigestion.
After feeding him four or five pieces of fish, little Fubao stopped eating in a hurry and started to play with his little hands.
"Liang---Qi---"
Xiao Fubao pushed the bowl to Wan Ersao's mouth, indicating that Wan Ersao should eat too.
"Oh, our little Fubao knows how to love his mother at such a young age? Okay, mother will eat too."
Wan Er's wife felt as sweet as drinking honey. People say that daughters are their mothers' little cotton-padded jackets, and it is indeed true. Look at that naughty boy in her family who is just busy eating.
Wan Ersao fed Fubao another half bowl of fish soup. Fubao started to hiccup, so Wan Ersao stopped feeding him.
"My dear, can you play by yourself for a while?"
Wan Ersao spread a quilt under the big tree, so that little Fubao could put it on the quilt and crawl around playing.
Little Fubao was full and had strength again, so he nodded immediately.
“Ah-ah-ah-”
As little Fubao spoke, he stretched out his little arm and pointed at the bedding.
Wan Ersao's eyes were full of smiles. This child is so smart.
Only after settling little Fubao down did Wan Ersao start to eat.
The family ate up a big pot of fish. After they were full, they felt sleepy.
Mrs. Wan Er glanced at Xiao Fubao and saw that she was yawning, so she hurried over.
"Fubao, are you sleepy?"
Little Fubao nodded obediently and raised his big hazy eyes. His eyes were wet and it was obvious that he could not hold on any longer. His little head began to move no matter how hard he tried.
Wan Ersao quickly picked up little Fubao.
"Good boy, go to sleep. Mommy is here."
Little Fubao lay in Wan Ersao's arms, smelling her scent, and felt particularly at ease. He fell into a deep sleep soon after.
"Mom, I'll put little Fubao next to you. You can hold her and rest together. I'll go help my third brother and his wife fry all the fish into dried fish. Let them dry in the sun, so we can have some dry food to fill our stomachs on the road."
Old Lady Wan waved her hand and said, "Go ahead. You don't have to worry about Fubao. This girl is well-behaved and sensible. I like her very much."
Wan Ersao was even happier in her heart. Being favored by the old lady, Fubao's life at home would definitely be much better in the future.
Because Liu was pregnant, she was sent away by Wan San's wife to rest. Wan Da's wife never came over here. After dinner, she found a shade under a tree and lay down to snore.
Wan Ersao and Wan Sansao worked hard for an entire afternoon and finally turned the fish and pheasant into dried meat for easy carrying.
Wan Ersao glanced at Wan Lao Da who was struggling to hold on. The wound must have become inflamed. If it was not treated, someone would definitely die in such a hot day.
She wiped her hands and left to find herbs to treat the wound.
Mrs. Wan Er actually found Sanqi. She had to sigh at her good luck for the day. As if she thought of something, she glanced in the direction of Xiao Fubao.
It seems that since picking up little Fubao, the family's life has improved, and even the attitudes of the officers and soldiers have changed a little.
Wan Ersao secretly memorized the herbs, processed them, and gave them to Wan Laoer, asking him to apply them on Wan Laoda's back.
As night fell, the Wan family began to prepare for rest as they had to continue their journey tomorrow.
Thinking about being implicated and exiled by the direct descendants of the Wan family, Old Lady Wan couldn't help but sigh in her heart: It's true that disaster can come from the sky when you are at home.
When the direct descendants were enjoying wealth and glory, they were still fleeing famine. They finally took root under the big willow tree, but now they are exiled again. What a sin!
At midnight, the bright moon was hanging high in the sky and the entire Wan family was sleeping soundly.
Wan Laoer drank too much fish soup and woke up because he had to pee, so he ran behind a big tree to pee.
I opened my eyes halfway through peeing, but a flash of golden light in the bushes drove away most of my sleepiness.
He thought he was seeing things, or maybe he was still sleepy?
He rubbed his eyes hard, and seeing that the light was still there, he forced himself to hold his urine and walked forward bravely.
I gently pushed aside the grass and was immediately pinned to the ground by the thing in front of me.
