However, Qin Yao waited for a long time, but the pain he imagined did not appear. Instead, a hand rubbed his head.
While rubbing it, he complained, "It's all greasy. How long have you not washed your hair?"
"I'm not going to hit you, just hold your head up."
Qin Yao raised his head tentatively, and the next second, his forehead was lightly tapped.
Although it didn't hurt, Qin Yao still covered his forehead and stared at Lin Su with resentful eyes.
Lin Su laughed out loud, "This is a small punishment for your ingratitude, Qin Yao. Not every stepmother is vicious. I understand that you don't trust me, but time will tell. During this period, can we get along well?"
Qin Yao didn't reply to her.
Lin Su was not discouraged. She sighed lightly, touched his head, and finally left with his accusing eyes.
As soon as Lin Su left, she took away the only remaining light source. Qin Yao suddenly felt cold and quickly got into the quilt.
The quilt was still warm, but Qin Yao suddenly couldn't sleep.
The next day.
It’s not easy to take care of three kids, so Lin Su only goes to town with her grandmother.
There were many people waiting to ride the ox cart. Grandma Lin was afraid that there would be no good seats later, so she pulled Lin Su to stand in the front.
After the old man pulled the ox cart over, Grandma Lin quickly took the best position and pulled the weak Lin Su up.
In order to prevent her from being blown by the wind, he wrapped her in the military coat that he had prepared long ago.
Lin Su was also afraid that her grandmother would be cold, so she opened half of her clothes and let her cover herself with them.
Only after everyone was seated did the old man drive the ox cart and set off.
It was still dark and the ox cart was shaking. Lin Su felt a little sleepy. Just as she was about to fall asleep, she suddenly heard the aunts who were gossiping turn their attention to her.
"Su girl, is your guy coming back?"
Lin Su was about to answer when Grandma Lin suddenly grabbed her hand and squeezed it, then completely covered her face with her military coat.
"The boy from the Qin family is the deputy head of the group and is very busy, but he should be back soon. By the way, Maodan's mother, is Maodan feeling better?" Grandma Lin responded perfunctorily and quickly changed the subject.
She knew these aunts had no ill intentions, but once they started asking questions, the conversation would go on and on, adding more gossip.
Lin Su pretended to be asleep, listening to them change the topic to other places, and her thoughts gradually drifted away.
I don’t know if Qin Sui is coming back soon.
After calculating that not much time had passed, Lin Su thought that his situation shouldn't be that fast, so she stopped thinking about it.
When she was sitting there until her whole body was numb, they finally arrived at the town and it was daybreak.
While Lin Su was still looking around curiously, Grandma Lin pulled her directly to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy cloth with a clear purpose.
There were too many people, and Grandma Lin was afraid that Lin Su would be squeezed in, so she asked her to wait aside while she squeezed in.
Although Grandma Lin is old, her fighting ability should not be underestimated. None of the young people around her can squeeze past her.
Lin Su was stunned. If she tried to squeeze in with her thin body, she would be squeezed into a dough stick.
After a while, Grandma Lin came out with a pile of cloth. Without waiting for Lin Su to speak, she stuffed the cloth into Lin Su's hands and went back to fight.
Seeing her grandmother squeezing in to buy things with a rosy face, Lin Su felt amused but also sad.
If my body was the same as that of an ordinary person, I wouldn't have to squeeze with my grandma and a bunch of young people.
Just as I was feeling sentimental, grandma came out with a bunch of things in her arms.
There are vanishing cream, biscuits, flour, sugar, salt, matches, towels, shampoo, etc.
There were too many, and Lin Su’s two eyes were not enough to see them all.
"Grandma, how come you buy so fast?" she asked curiously.
Grandma Lin stuffed the things into the backpack and covered it with a rag. She smiled and said, "It's all based on experience. Besides, there are so many people that I can't choose. I just take whatever they give me."
Lin Su felt that she had learned something new.
After buying enough things, the two of them left without staying for long. Afraid that the three children at home would panic when they woke up and couldn't find anyone, Lin Su and Grandma Lin walked quickly towards the uncle's ox cart.
There were many people waiting for the bus after shopping. Seeing that almost everyone was there, the old man did not delay any longer and drove the cows away.
When Lin Su and Grandma Lin returned home, the three children were awake. Qin Ni was washing Qin Keke's face, and Qin Yao was sweeping the yard.
That comfortable state is as if he treats this place as his own home.
Lin Su and Grandma Lin smiled at each other.
"Come and see what Grandpa bought for you." Lin Su said.
Qin Yao just glanced over here and didn't come over and continued sweeping his floor. Qin Ni saw the exposed biscuits and was moved, but she was worried about Lin Su, so she hesitated again and again and didn't go over.
Only Qin Keke, who was young, didn't think too much about it and walked towards Lin Su when she heard the voice.
He was staggering, and Lin Su was afraid that he would fall so she quickly hugged him.
Maybe he was used to Lin Su's scent, or maybe the food attracted most of Qin Keke's attention, so he didn't push Lin Su away at the first moment.
Lin Su didn't hold them for long. She took out the biscuits and candies and put them in a basket, then asked Qin Keke to share them with her brothers and sisters.
Qin Keke did as she was told.
It was getting late, so Lin Su went into the kitchen to help her grandmother make breakfast.
In the yard, Qin Yao looked at the biscuits and candies in his palms with a complicated expression.
If they were at grandma's house, not only would they not be able to eat it, even if they got it, grandma would take it away and share it with the kids from my uncle's family.
They have always only been able to watch but not eat.
Now at his vicious stepmother's house, his initial thought was that it would be even worse than at his grandmother's house, but that was not the case.
Here they can get up early or late at will, and they can eat their fill without working. The most important thing is that they can sleep on the kang and cover themselves with thick quilts, which is very warm.
They were not beaten or scolded, and they were given snacks from time to time, such as cookies and candies, and no one snatched them away from them.
Afterwards, they will have new clothes to wear.
