Chapter 630 Staying Home



"Alright, alright, you're an adult, why are you making things difficult for your own child?"

You yourself fell and hurt yourself, and didn't you see that the child was also upset?

Hey, are you alright?

"Never mind, let me help you inside first!"

Fu Hongmin didn't believe Liu Mei's usual domineering words at all; he felt that what Da Hua said was probably true.

However, Liu Mei accidentally fell and was injured.

Thinking of keeping the matter quiet, Fu Hongmin muttered a few words and then stepped forward to help Liu Mei into the house.

When Fu Dahua saw her father helping her mother in, she quickly and considerately opened the door to make it easier for them to enter the room.

Fu Hongmin was very pleased to see this.

A sensible child is always endearing.

Liu Mei, who was half-carried and half-dragged into the house by Fu Hongmin, turned pale with pain and couldn't utter a single word of the curse she had wanted to say to Fu Dahua.

Fu Hongmin roughly settled Liu Mei onto the bed and said in a muffled voice, "Since you twisted your back, you should lie down and rest!"

After saying that, he called Fu Dahua to come out of the room together.

He walked into the courtyard first, then turned to look at Fu Dahua, who was heavily pregnant, slowly moving out of the room. The words that were on the tip of his tongue were swallowed back down.

With a long sigh, Fu Hongmin said, "Why don't you go to Jianhua and Xiaohua's room and lie down for a while?"

Fu Xiaohua is already 8 years old this year. Fu Jianhua is now slow to react and seems to have a mental disability, so she has always been the one taking care of her second brother.

This morning, Fu Xiaohua took Fu Jianhua to cut grass. Now that the village has a rabbit farm, it's definitely not enough time for just two people from the rabbit farm to cut grass.

Therefore, Tan Dingguo notified the whole village that anyone willing to cut grass and deliver it to the rabbit farm could earn one work point for every basket of grass they delivered.

For adults, the time it takes to cut such a basket of grass is not as long as it takes to work in the fields!

This benefited the sensible and obedient children in the village; usually, a few children could cut at least two baskets of grass a day.

With Fu Xiaohua and Fu Jianhua by their side, they could harvest a little less than three baskets of produce in a day.

In this way, you can earn about 8 work points in three days.

Little by little, that adds up to 80 work points in a month!

So every morning, Fu Xiaohua would happily take her second brother to cut grass.

When Fu Dahua heard her father tell her to go and stay in her younger sister's and second brother's room, she couldn't help but secretly purse her lips.

However, nowadays, when you're under someone else's roof, you have no choice but to bow your head.

With tears in her eyes, she nodded and slowly moved into Fu Xiaohua and Fu Jianhua's room.

Fu Hongmin only looked away after seeing Fu Dahua enter the room.

The thought of suddenly having a pregnant woman and a patient in the family made me want to sigh again.

The eldest son is a good-for-nothing; everyone else is helping the family work in the fields to earn work points.

Even the youngest daughter and second son would go to cut grass, but the eldest son was thinking day and night about how to squeeze money out of Liu Mei's pockets.

If they can't get out, they'll steal.

After one or two instances, he was already on the verge of losing hope in his eldest son!

But thinking about what Liu Mei said, how can Jianhua, who looks so foolish now, be able to uphold the family's reputation?

If Jianhua had been taken to the hospital for treatment in time when he fell ill, would things have turned out differently?

When Fu Hongmin entered the kitchen, he saw an empty large bowl and a bowl next to it containing only a little bit of fish soup from steamed salted fish at the bottom, which smelled fishy.
