It seems that my mother-in-law overheard what my sister-in-law said to her husband and second brother when she ran out.
She dared not stay in the room any longer, picked up the wet clothes beside her, and quietly left.
"Sister-in-law, how is Mother?"
Zhao Xueqin was standing by the door. As soon as Yang Meizi came out, she immediately met her and asked.
"Yes, Meizi, how is Mother?"
Ning An, who was originally squatting on the ground in pain, clutching her hair, immediately stood up nervously when she heard her younger sister-in-law's question and looked at Yang Meizi.
Yang Meizi glanced at Zhao Xueqin first, and then whispered to Ning An, "Mother's injuries are all superficial. They look scary, but they shouldn't have broken any bones."
However, my clothes are all wet, so I'm going to wash them!
"Sister-in-law, go and boil some ginger and brown sugar water. Give it to Mother while it's hot, or she'll catch a cold."
Hearing Yang Meizi say that, Ning An finally breathed a sigh of relief.
However, Zhao Xueqin couldn't help but purse her lips.
This sister-in-law really knows how to order people around.
However, seeing the wet clothes Yang Meizi was holding, his mind immediately started working.
Thinking with a strong sense of conspiracy, Yang Meizi was definitely waiting for her to say she didn't want to make ginger and brown sugar water, so she could push the wet clothes she was holding onto onto Yang Meizi.
On such a cold day, she didn't want to take her clothes to the river to wash them.
It's still warmer to stay by the fire in the kitchen.
After Zhao Xueqin rolled her eyes, her previously pouting and unwilling expression suddenly changed.
He said with a smile, "Don't worry, sister-in-law, I'll go and boil some ginger water right away."
After saying that, he strode towards the kitchen.
My sister-in-law said something about ginger and brown sugar water, but the brown sugar is hidden in Ning's mother's room!
If I really want to make ginger and brown sugar water, I'd have to ask Ning's mother for it. But with Ning's mother in this state, if I go in again, wouldn't that be suicide?
She didn't want to be someone else's punching bag. If it were her own daughter who had humiliated her, she would probably want to die.
Besides, if you're worried about catching a cold, just drink ginger water!
In poor families, sometimes there isn't even a slice of ginger, let alone brown sugar.
Brown sugar is just for sweetening the palate; it's for Ning's mother, so there's no need to waste it.
While lighting the fire and pursing his lips, he deftly reached into the cabinet in the corner of the kitchen and grabbed a piece of ginger the size of a fingernail.
With nimble hands and feet, I sliced the ginger into thin strips, skin and all. Then I scooped up a ladle of water, added the ginger strips, and once the water boiled, I poured out a large bowl of ginger water.
Then, while it was still hot, he carried it to Ning's mother's room.
Ning's mother was already quite pathetic, shedding tears in front of her eldest daughter-in-law.
Why would he continue to be so pathetic in front of his younger relatives?
Therefore, by the time Zhao Xueqin brought the ginger water into the house, Ning's mother had already composed herself.
Her two sons sat down beside her bed.
Seeing Zhao Xueqin come in carrying a bowl, Ning An quickly stood up and took the bowl of scalding hot ginger water.
Then he handed it to Ning's mother and said dejectedly, "Mother, drink this water first! It will warm you up."
Ning's mother would never go against anyone but her own health. Seeing that her eldest son had persuaded her, she stopped being coy, reached out and took the bowl, and then blew away the white steam rising from the water.
Then, undeterred by the heat, she actually drank the entire bowl of ginger water, sip by sip, until it was completely empty.
After drinking a large bowl of ginger water, I broke out in a sweat.
My nose was a little stuffy before, like I had a cold, but now it's completely clear!
