It's no wonder that Qin Lei stood there stupidly. The main reason is that Wei Ling looked very young, so young that no one expected that he held an important position in the army.
The less you cared at the time, the more you regret now.
Once again, Qin Lei complained about his wife in his heart. Isn't it just a matter of lowering your head? By lowering your head, you can not only get meat to eat, but also have a powerful backer. Everyone knows that soldiers are the most popular in this era.
Since the son of widow Wang from Tunkou joined the army, not only has it been easy for him to find a wife, but widow Wang doesn't have to work in the fields and her family has enough food and drink. But for genuine farmers like them, they have to work hard and earn work points every year. If they earn less work points, the family will have to tighten their belts and diet!
The more I thought about Qin Lei, the more I felt wronged, and the worse my mood became.
Auntie Ayun saw Qin Lei in the crowd and quickly nudged the people around her with her elbow. When people looked at her, she pouted in Qin Lei's direction. Her expression remained unchanged, but her eyes were filled with schadenfreude.
Zhu Hongxia had a bad temper and had offended many people in the village.
At least I have offended her.
The person who was hit followed Auntie Ayun's gaze and saw Qin Lei, who looked frustrated. He curled his lips, and although he didn't say anything sarcastic, he didn't look down on Qin Lei's family. Everyone in that family was not a good person.
"Go home, hurry home. It's cold, go home and warm up. I'll ask the children to warm a bottle of wine for you."
As it got darker, the temperature dropped sharply, and every wife took her husband home.
Zheng Anguo was also heading home greeted by his son. On the way, his son told him in detail what had happened in the village after he went up the mountain, with emphasis on the Qin family.
"Third brother, fourth brother, let's go to second brother's house for dinner. We have wine."
As soon as the crowd dispersed, Qin Lei came to his senses and quickly called Qin Shu and Qin Shi to his home. The quarrels between the daughters-in-law were a matter between the daughters-in-law, and they, as brothers, should not be estranged from each other. He also hoped to use the brotherhood to ease the discord between the daughters-in-law of several families.
Qin Shu and Qin Shi had seen Qin Lei earlier. They originally wanted to say a few words to their son, but when they heard Qin Lei's greeting, they ignored their son's hesitant expression and walked towards Qin Lei's house with a smile.
The brothers have a good relationship, so they will definitely get together after returning from this trip up the mountain and take the opportunity to chat.
Qin Defu and Qin Anping watched their father enter their second uncle's courtyard in amazement, then looked at each other.
"Brother, what should we do?" Qin Anping asked Qin Defu.
Qin Defu wiped the snot from his nose, said "I don't care" and went back.
Qin Anping looked at Qin Defu's back, then looked at the closed gate of his second uncle's house, and simply went home. He was there to pick him up anyway, and it was none of his business if his father didn't go home with him.
When he returned home, Qin Anping was questioned by Yao Chunying as expected.
Qin Anping did not hide anything and honestly said that his father had gone to his second uncle's house. This kind of situation was a common occurrence in the past. If his mother knew that his father had gone to his second uncle's house, she would prepare two dishes and bring them over. He didn't know if his father was treated like this today.
Yao Chunying had no idea what her son was thinking, and her face had already darkened as she sat leaning against the head of the kang.
Qin Anping and Qin Huihui in the room looked at their mother's expressions and didn't dare to say a word.
Ever since Yao Chunying was injured, her temper has become worse and worse, and she gets angry at the slightest provocation. Usually Qin Anping is quite domineering at home because he relies on being a boy, but these past two days he has been behaving very cautiously, for fear of being scolded by his mother.
"Huihui, go and stew the meat."
Yao Chunying's expression flickered for a long time before she uttered this sentence.
"Mom, are you going to send meat to your second uncle's house?" Qin Anping was shocked. In order for his father to eat the meat sent by his cousin Qingman, his family only cut a little bit for cooking last night. He didn't expect that the meat would fly to his second uncle's house before it was warmed.
Qin Anping was dissatisfied and in a very bad mood.
"Why send meat to your second uncle's house? You treat them as your second uncle, but they don't treat us as family. No, Huihui, stew all the meat and the three of us will have a good meal." Yao Chunying glared at her stupid son.
He looks smart at ordinary times, but he doesn't get involved at critical moments.
Qin Anping was not annoyed at all when he was scolded. The only thing in his mind was: Eat meat with your belly full.
"Hehehehe - eat meat, eat it open," Qin Anping was so happy that he became a fool.
Yao Chunying was too lazy to look at the fool, so she sent her son and daughter out of the bedroom to cook.
Li Meina's family is in the same situation as Yao Chunying's family.
Li Meina's idea is the same as Yao Chunying's. If the head of the family cares about the brotherhood, then just eat and drink well at the brother's house and don't worry about them.
Qin Shu and Qin Shi had no idea that they had angered their daughters-in-law. At this moment, they were wiping themselves with a basin of water in the living room of Qin Lei's house.
I also took off my sweaty underwear and washed it. After washing, I put it next to the stove to dry. After dinner, the underwear should be dry.
"Third brother, fourth brother, what's the situation on the mountain? Tell me quickly. Can we still hunt and share prey this year?" Qin Lei asked as he added firewood to the stove. He didn't go up the mountain this time and had no idea what the specific situation was like.
Qin Shi washed himself first, then sat down, took the hot water handed to him by Qin Jianjun, took a sip and then talked about the situation on the mountain.
After cleaning up, Qin Shu sat beside him and added something from time to time.
At Qin Lei's house, Qin Lei and his sons in the living room listened carefully to the explanation of the situation on the mountain by Qin Shu and his brother. Zhu Hongxia, who was recuperating in the house, also listened with her ears tilted up. She was also anxious about whether she could get a share of meat before the New Year.
If we can’t hunt any prey in the village this year, we can finish the food in one meal with just the meat distributed by the team.
In the hall, when they heard Qin Shu and the others talking about the wolf pack, both Qin Lei and Qin Jianming's faces turned pale.
At the same time, he was also thankful in his heart that they did not follow them up the mountain. It is a rare opportunity to escape unscathed from a wolf pack. If one is unlucky, it would be a life-and-death situation, or even death.
Fortunately, fortunately they did not go up the mountain this time.
After talking about the situation on the mountain, Qin Shu and Qin Shi both felt extremely hungry. They couldn't help but look back at Qin Lei's kitchen. They didn't seem to smell the fragrance of food. His second brother wouldn't be stingy with a meal, would he?
Qin Lei also noticed the surprise of his two younger brothers, and hurriedly shouted to the kitchen: "Caiyun, Caiyun, is the meal ready? Your third and fourth uncles are hungry, hurry up."
"Dad, it will be ready soon."
In the kitchen, Qin Caiyun calmly opened the lid of the pot, revealing a pot of stewed potatoes.
Her family had been robbed by Qin Qingman twice in a row, and food was tight. Recently, they had been eating sweet potatoes, potatoes, and corn grits, and only occasionally making black flour steamed buns. Today, her third and fourth uncles came back unexpectedly, so there was definitely no time to make the dough, so they could only make potatoes, which were easier to cook.
As for the dishes, just take out two heads of sauerkraut from the jar and stew them.
Qin Caiyun's engagement was broken off, and she was not that devoted to this family. She just did things perfunctorily as much as she could. No one would show any appreciation for her no matter how well she did.
Just make do with it.
Five minutes later, Qin Caiyun entered the hall carrying a pot of stewed potatoes.
Seeing the potatoes placed in front of them, both Qin Shu and Qin Shi were silent for a moment.
What does it mean?
Let them eat potatoes?
It’s not that they can’t eat potatoes, but eating potatoes at home and being treated to guests with potatoes are two different concepts. Could it be that they dislike them for eating free meals?
After looking at each other, Qin Shi smiled at Qin Lei and said, "Second brother, why don't you see second sister-in-law?" He remembered that Zhu Hongxia used to be the chef and Qin Caiyun was her assistant. Today, they sat for a long time but didn't see Zhu Hongxia. This seemed a little wrong.
Qin Lei had been waiting for this sentence. He sighed and said, "Your second sister-in-law is injured."
"Was my second sister-in-law hit by a wild boar in the mountains?" Qin Shi and Qin Shu asked in unison.
"You guys know that too?" Qin Lei looked in surprise at his two younger brothers who had just come down the mountain.
Qin Shi and Qin Shu nodded, "We heard about it on the mountain. If it weren't for the wild boars and wolves, we wouldn't have come down the mountain so quickly. It seems that the mountain is indeed dangerous and it is not suitable to go up the mountain in the near future."
"Oh, who said it wasn't?" Qin Lei also sighed.
His wife was injured, not only did the family lose a laborer, but it was also unknown how long it would take for her to recover. Fortunately, Liu Hechang took the initiative to pay for the medical expenses, otherwise their family would have had a very difficult year.
"Don't worry, second brother. Sister-in-law is a lucky person. Everything will be fine."
Qin Shu didn't know how to comfort Qin Lei for a moment, so he simply grabbed a potato and started eating it, changing the subject while eating, "Second brother, the potatoes are quite delicious, you guys should eat them quickly, I guess my wife will bring the food over soon."
He still looks at the problem from the perspective of old experience.
Qin Shi was also very confident. He believed that his wife would definitely send him some food.
Qin Lei had always been a little greedy for the new meat from his two younger brothers' homes, and now, hearing his two younger brothers speak so confidently and absolutely, he began to look forward to it.
He hasn't eaten pork for a long time.
Qin Jianming and Qin Jianjun, who were sitting silently on the side, swallowed hard. They also ate pork.
Although wild boar meat has a strong smell, they don't mind eating it.
"Jianming, go get some wine. I want to have a good drink with my Third Uncle and Fourth Uncle." With hope in his heart, Qin Lei became generous.
"Hey." Qin Jianming quickly got up and went to the pot in the kitchen to scoop wine.
The Northeast is winter for half a year. In such a cold place, the best way to keep warm is wine, so every family will use corn to roast wine. The alcohol content is not low, and it can be said to be authentic Shaodaozi. Shaodaozi is the biggest consumable in winter.
After a few drinks, Qin Shi and Qin Shu felt warm all over.
They also started to roll up their sleeves and make fists. Amid the lively noise, Qin Caiyun came up with the dishes.
A big pot of sauerkraut stew.
Just a little salt, the oily smell is hard to detect.
Qin Lei saw that his two younger brothers looked unhappy, so he quickly tried to smooth things over, "Third brother, fourth brother, it's not that I don't want to entertain you. You know, your sister-in-law is injured, and we don't know when she will recover. We also gave some food to Qingman, so we are a little tight on money."
After hearing Qin Lei's explanation, Qin Shu and his partner really couldn't lose face, otherwise it would seem like they had no brotherhood.
Qin Lei saw that his two younger brothers were silent, so he thought for a moment and said to Qin Caiyun, "Caiyun, go fry some eggs for your third and fourth uncles to eat with their wine. We can still afford a few eggs."
"Brother, there's no need to scramble eggs. My sister-in-law is injured, and our family is short of money. As long as we brothers are united, it doesn't matter what we eat as long as we have wine." Qin Shu raised his glass to Qin Lei.
Qin Shi also quickly agreed, "Yes, second brother, save the eggs for second sister-in-law to nourish her body."
"Third brother, fourth brother, I..." Qin Lei was moved by his two younger brothers.
While the elders were talking, Qin Jianjun kept turning his head to look at the door of the living room, taking bites of the potatoes in his hand. He was waiting for the meat from his third and fourth aunts.
When his third uncle and fourth uncle are at his house, his two aunts will definitely send them meat.
Qin Jianjun frequently turned around to remind Qin Shi and Qin Shu that they had been staying at their second brother's house for a long time, so why hadn't any food been delivered yet? What was going on? Could it be that they, as the head of the family, had lost their importance?
After drinking some wine, Qin Shu and Qin Shi showed their chauvinism in front of outsiders.
You can be embarrassed at home, but you must not be embarrassed in front of your second brother.
With a whoosh, the two brothers stood up.
"Second brother, I'll go home and take a look." Qin Shi and Qin Shu said to Qin Lei at the same time.
"Third and fourth brothers, it's just a small matter. Maybe your sister-in-law delayed you. Don't worry, let's continue drinking. I'll ask Jianming to go and take a look." Qin Lei hurriedly stopped his two younger brothers. He was thinking about how to tell them about the previous conflict at home.
Qin Shu, who was addicted to alcohol, looked at Qin Shi and agreed to Qin Lei's suggestion.
"Dad, I'll go and see."
Qin Jianjun couldn't sit still any longer, and without waiting for Qin Lei's answer, he ran out of the house.
Qin Lei thought of the troubles this kid had caused before, and he was not at ease at all. He quickly told Qin Jianming, "Jianming, go and take a look with your brother. Don't make your third and fourth aunts angry."
"Got it, Dad."
Qin Jianming had to be more honest and leave as soon as he got the order.
As soon as he walked out of the door, Qin Jianjun, who was waiting outside, covered his mouth and pulled him aside. Then the two of them squatted stealthily by the wall of their own courtyard. Qin Jianjun asked his eldest brother, "Brother, do you want to eat meat?"
Gulp!
A loud swallowing sound was heard; it was Qin Jianming.
"Brother, if you want to eat meat, just listen to me." Qin Jianjun looked at Qin Jianming's flashing eyes and began to deceive him.
Qin Jianming, who wanted to eat meat so much, finally gave in and asked, "What do you want to do?"
"What can I do?" Qin Jianjun rolled his eyes at his elder brother. "You know I offended the two aunts before. The two aunts even resented our family. I'm sure they won't send us food today."
Qin Jianming frowned, "What should we do?" He also liked meat.
"I guess the two aunts must be stewing meat." Qin Jianjun took a deep breath after saying this. Believe it or not, the air was indeed filled with a mouth-watering aroma of meat. He didn't know whether it came from the two aunts' homes or from Qin Qingman's home next door.
Ever since he knew that Wei Ling was a soldier and a regiment leader, he had completely given up the idea of taking advantage of Qin Qingman's family.
Didn't you see that night when he went to steal meat, not only did he not steal any meat, but he also got four blood blisters on his buttocks. He suspected that Wei Ling had hit him with a slingshot.
He didn't dare to say anything without evidence, nor did he dare to admit that he had stolen meat at night.
Just when Qin Jianjun's thoughts were wandering, Qin Jianming's voice rang softly in his ear, "Jianjun, I want to eat meat. How can we get meat?"
"Let's split up into two groups and go see if the third and fourth aunts have stewed meat. If they have, we'll use the tone of the third and fourth uncles to ask them when they will send the meat over. If they do, we'll definitely have a share. If not, we'll go back and tell the two uncles the truth."
Qin Jianjun rolled his eyes and came up with an idea.
"You mean to use two uncles to suppress two aunts?" Qin Jianming understood Qin Jianjun's plan.
"Yes, the two uncles want to save face. If they knew that my aunt and the others were eating alone at home and didn't give them face, they would definitely be angry, and they would make a fuss when they are angry." Qin Jianjun still had this confidence.
"Okay, let's do it this way. Which one do you want to go to?" Qin Jianming asked his brother to choose.
"I'll go to my third uncle's house, and you go to my fourth uncle's house." Qin Jianjun had already made his choice in his mind. Fourth aunt Yao Chunying had a hot temper, and if he went to the house of his third aunt who had a better temper, he would at most be given a cold shoulder.
"OK."
Qin Jianming patted the snow on his butt and ran to Yao Chunying's house.
As for Qin Jianjun, he went to Li Meina's house.
Before they even entered the room, they smelled a strong aroma of meat. The meat must have been braised because they could smell the aroma of soybean paste.
As expected, facing the two brothers who came to their door, both Yao Chunying and Li Meina had bad faces and sent them out after a few words.
Faced with such a result, Qin Jianming and his brother accepted it well, because it was just what they expected anyway.
As agreed, the two brothers returned home.
What they didn't know was that their actions were discovered by Chuchu who went out to pee. Chuchu not only overheard their discussion, but also watched them rush home with excitement.
The kids don't quite understand what's going on here.
Chu Chu, full of curiosity, hurried back to the house and talked to Qin Qingman about it.
Although Qin Qingman had never spent much time with her third and fourth uncles, she could guess their personalities from just a few simple encounters. With such personalities, they might be henpecked under normal circumstances, but after drinking and being too concerned about their reputation, it was hard to say. It was estimated that there would be some commotion in these families today.
"Sister, what should we do? Should we go and alert the third and fourth aunts?"
Chuchu is a bit worried.
"Why do you care so much? One of us is a woman and the other is a kid. No one will listen to whoever speaks. Why do you care? Are you so anxious because you are full? Come on, stop thinking so much. If you care too much, you will not grow tall. Eat quickly and go to bed early after eating."
Qin Qingman reached out and rubbed Chuchu's head.
After only seeing Xiaxiang for two days, both she and Chuchu looked better, and even their faces were a little more rosy.
This is not the red color that can be roasted over a fire.
Just as the brother and sister were enjoying their meal, Qin Shi and Qin Shu from next door also received "complaints" from their two nephews.
The two brothers, who had already drunk three or two glasses of wine, couldn't save face in front of Qin Lei.
The two men stood up and rushed home without saying a word.
The old lady in the family was simply outrageous. She actually dared to make them lose face in front of their second brother and two nephews. In the eyes of the old lady, do they still regard them as the head of the family?
The two angry brothers kicked open their own doors.
As soon as the door opened, both Qin Shi and Qin Shu saw the fragrant pork stewed with vermicelli on the stove. Although they were surprised to see the meat, they were also furious at the same time, because in his absence, his wife was eating with her two children with their mouths full of grease.
There didn't seem to be much meat left in the pot.
This is eating alone!
Qin Shi, who saw with his own eyes that his wife was eating alone and was reluctant to bring a bowl to his second brother's house, got angry and rushed over.
"His father, come back..."
Yao Chunying was injured and unable to get up, but she was still in a good mood when she saw her man.
As a result, the man who rushed over not only did not respond to her, but also kicked the pot on the stove.
“Bang!”
A dull sound was heard, and a pot of pork stewed with vermicelli was kicked over to the ground.
This made Qin Lei's family, who followed behind, change their expressions drastically.
Oh no, it seems that not only will things not be relieved, they may even get worse!
With this thought in mind, Qin Lei didn't dare to show up. The fourth family was obviously planning a fight, and his family would definitely be implicated if they were involved. No, they couldn't show up. With this thought, Qin Lei grabbed his two sons by the scruff of the neck and dragged them out the door.
As soon as the father and his two sons walked out of the Qin Shi family's courtyard, Yao Chunying's Hedong lion roar broke out.
Similar to the Qin Shi family is the Qin Shu family.
The two brothers drank and their anger destroyed their rationality. They kicked over the pot at home impulsively, and the delicious pot of pork stewed with vermicelli was ruined.
Neither Yao Chunying nor Li Meina could tolerate this.
Ignoring the injuries on their bodies, the two women grabbed the crutches beside them and started beating their men on the face, cursing them mercilessly while beating them, saying the most nasty things. After all, they were just country women, and there was no such thing as elegant cursing.
Qin Shu and Qin Shi were immediately stunned by the beating.
Of course you have to resist after you are stunned.
"Dad, Mom is injured. She was hit by a wild boar. Grandpa Lin gave us some medicine and told us not to move. Stop it now. If you fight back, Mom will vomit blood." Qin Huihui was so anxious when she saw her parents fighting that she squeezed in between them.
Then he was beaten with a cane and fists.
But it also made Qin Shi and Yao Chunying stop.
"Were you hit by a wild boar?" Qin Shi regained his senses and the drunkenness had subsided.
"Qin Shi, you bastard, I can't live like this anymore. I want a divorce. I want a divorce from you." Yao Chunying spat out a mouthful of blood, threw down her crutches and started to hit Qin Shi in the face. What sin had she committed in her life to marry into the Qin family? There is no good person in this family.
Faced with his wife's Five Claws Skill, Qin Shi, knowing that he was in the wrong, did not dare to resist at all.
In a short while, his whole face was covered with blood sulfur.
One by one, just like a door curtain.
"Wife, don't be angry. I didn't know you were hit by a wild boar. If you knew it, how could I go to my second brother's house? I would definitely go home to see you as soon as possible." Qin Shi didn't want to get divorced, so he hurried to explain.
"Divorce, go live with your second brother, I won't serve you anymore."
Yao Chunying was so angry that she spat out blood again.
"Wife, I was wrong." Qin Shi squatted down and muttered, "Second brother didn't say you were injured, I really didn't know."
"Defu, tell your father how I was kicked out of the house by your second uncle's family." Yao Chunying remembered that Qin Jianming had come to her house to ask for food before, and immediately guessed that it was Qin Lei's family who had done something bad again, and quickly yelled at her son who was squatting on the ground picking meat to eat.
When called, Qin Defu quickly wiped the oil from the corners of his mouth and recounted in vivid detail what had happened in the village after Qin Shi left home.
Where did the meat come from and why his mother didn't send him any vegetables? He told him everything clearly.
After saying this, he looked at the vermicelli soaked with gravy on the ground with regret.
Unfortunately, the taste of washed ones is definitely not as good as the original ones.
After listening to Qin Defu's explanation of the reasons and consequences of not delivering the food, Qin Shi shouted and rushed out of the house. He wanted to settle the score with Qin Lei. It turned out that not only his second sister-in-law was injured by the wild boar, but his wife and third sister-in-law were also injured.
His second brother was hurt, but he only mentioned his own wife. What a crappy second brother.
If I had any family affection, I would remind myself of this.
When Qin Shi rushed to the door of Qin Lei's house, Qin Lei's door was being smashed by Qin Shu.
Qin Shu had just figured out the whole cause and effect, realizing that he had been tricked, and beaten by his wife. He also began to resent Qin Lei, so he came to demand justice, and then confronted Qin Shi face to face.
Originally, the two brothers wanted to hide the situation on their faces.
The result is the same 'curtain'.
The two brothers, who shared the same pain, resented Qin Lei even more. "Second brother, open the door. What did you promise us before we went up the mountain? You said you would help look after the house, but our two wives were injured and you chased them out of your house in such a cold weather?!"
In the room, Qin Lei was pacing with a sad face.
Originally, he planned to not talk back to his two younger brothers no matter what they said, and wait until their anger subsided before explaining. However, when it came to the fact that Yao Chunying and the others moved away, he really couldn't be blamed, so he couldn't help but make a statement in their defense.
"Third brother, fourth brother, this is just a misunderstanding. Jianjun was just talking nonsense. Don't take the child's words seriously. I will have him apologize to the two younger brothers and sisters in a moment. Let him kneel down and apologize."
"Bullshit, Qin Lei, you are trying to fool us."
Qin Shi spat out a mouthful of saliva. His wife was going to divorce him. Was this a childish thing?
"Fourth brother, I'm your second brother. How can you talk like that? Do you still see me as your second brother?" Qin Lei gave in again and again, but when his two younger brothers refused to give in and called him by his full name, he got angry.
"Second brother, if you weren't in our eyes, we wouldn't have entered your house as soon as we came back. But you, knowing that my wife and my third sister-in-law were injured, not only did you not say a word, you also deliberately misled us."
Qin Shi's drunkenness wore off and he also regained his senses.
"Second brother, if you really care about brotherhood you wouldn't treat our family like this. We were blinded by not seeing your true face. From now on, your home is your home and our home is our home. We won't take advantage of your family." Qin Shu said this angrily and went home.
He has shown his attitude. He still has to go home and coax his wife. He doesn't want to really get divorced.
After Qin Shu left, Qin Shi kicked the gate of Qin Lei's house hard and left.
The nights in Kaoshantun were very quiet. Any sound outside could be heard far away, and the noise made by the Qin brothers could be heard by the surrounding neighbors.
Jiang Linshan was even more frightened.
Fortunately, he returned home as soon as he got back. When he got home, he found that his wife was injured. Then he hurried to take care of her, so he did not encounter the misfortune of Qin Shu and his brother. Otherwise, if he went to Qin Lei's house to join in the fun, his family would definitely be restless now.
His wife is not a good-tempered person.
In Kaoshan Village, the Qin family was the cause of all the noise from morning till night. Many families in the village could not help but gossip about it at home, but Qin Qingman's family was very quiet.
It was quiet, with no one coming out to watch the fun or talking behind the scenes.
After dinner, the brother and sister washed themselves, then turned down the fire in the stove and got on the kang.
Wei Ling was not at home today, so the brother and sister, who had just shared a bed for a day, slept on the same kang again. One slept in the middle of the three-meter-long kang, and the other slept at the end. They each had their own blanket and did not disturb each other.
There was limited kerosene for lighting, and since the brother and sister were lying in bed, there was no need to waste more kerosene, so Qin Qingman simply turned off the light.
A room without lights is not completely dark.
Although it wasn't snowing outside, there was a thick layer of snow on the ground. The snow reflected the moonlight in the night sky, making the night less dark. A hint of hazy light could be felt through the windows in the house.
Chuchu grabbed the quilt and couldn't fall asleep, so she kept tossing and turning on the kang.
With such a commotion, Qin Qingman would definitely not be able to sleep.
"Chu Chu." A warning voice sounded.
Chuchu, who was warned, immediately stopped rolling around and lay flat in her quilt, closing her eyes tightly. Time passed by minute by minute. After a few minutes, the child's voice rang in the room, "Sister, are you asleep?"
Qin Qingman, who was not asleep: ...
"Sister." Chu Chu seemed to turn over and face Qin Qingman.
Qin Qingman did not respond to the child, intending to wait for the child's enthusiasm to die down, but she underestimated Chuchu's patience.
"Sister." Not only did Chuchu call out again, Qin Qingman also heard rustling sounds.
Helplessly, Qin Qingman could only answer: "Can't sleep?"
Chuchu had almost stretched out her hand to Qin Qingman's face, but when she heard Qin Qingman's answer, she quickly retracted her hand, and then she lay down happily and talked to Qin Qingman, "Sister, are you also missing Brother Wei so much that you can't sleep?"
Qin Qingman:!!! Why does she miss Wei Ling so much that she can’t sleep?
She and Wei Ling have only met a few times, why does she miss him so much that she can't sleep!
"Sister, I miss Brother Wei so much. I don't know what Brother Wei is doing now. Is he sleeping on the kang like us? If he is sleeping on the kang, does he think about us as much as we think about him?" Chu Chu didn't need Qin Qingman to answer, he just wanted to say what was in his heart.
Qin Qingman could only listen to the child's simple mumbling in silence.
"Sister, when do you think Brother Wei will be back?" Chu Chu turned over to face Qin Qingman and asked the question she wanted to ask most.
"I remember that someone was unwilling to sleep on the same kang with A Ling before?" Qin Qingman deliberately teased Chu Chu.
Chuchu blushed, "Sister, I'm not used to it, you can't laugh at me anymore, Brother Wei is my brother-in-law, I'm willing to sleep with him."
Qin Qingman was caught off guard that Chuchu's boomerang would hit her, and the word "brother-in-law" made her blush.
Not only did my face turn red, but my heartbeat also quickened.
The proposal last night was very hasty and she made the decision very impulsively. Now thinking about it, Qin Qingman didn't know why she agreed to marry Wei Ling on impulse, after all, they had just met.
"Sister, you're not talking because you're thinking about your brother-in-law?" The little kid's voice continued.
Qin Qingman, who was thinking about Wei Ling, couldn't bear it any longer. She stretched out her hands and attacked Chu Chu. If you don't want to sleep, then no one should sleep.
"Hahaha~, sister, sister, I was wrong. I will never ask you if you are thinking about brother-in-law again." Chu Chu called him brother-in-law very smoothly, and it seemed a little fake to say that it was not intentional.
Is Qin Qingman someone who can be easily laughed at?
That is definitely not possible.
Chu Chu was so amused that she burst into tears of laughter, and she paid compensation and apologized.
After a noisy chat, the brother and sister fell asleep peacefully, not waking up once in the night.
In the forest, Wei Ling and his men did not return to the barracks, but found a shed to rest.
Before that, they followed the wolf's footprints around the mountain again and again, and finally came to a valley. The valley was surrounded by white snow, and at the bottom was a small lake with steam rising from it.
It's a hot spring.
