"Zhou Zhuo, I meant what I said in the cinema. We'll get married when you recover. I want to keep you by my side to prevent you from being seduced away by others. Also, I can't take care of the child, so you'll be the one taking care of him in the future."
Zhou Zhuo suddenly hit her harder, and Lin Qingqing let out a low cry.
His second brother insisted on standing up, and Zhou Zhuo squatted in pain, trying his best not to let his wife see.
The pair of small feet were as white and tender as lotus roots, and the ten toes were round, pink and tender, beautiful like a work of art. As Zhou Zhuo looked at them, he felt the blood rushing to his forehead, and then a warm current gushed out from under his nose. He was bleeding from the nose.
Lin Qingqing screamed: "Ah, your nose is bleeding, go wash it!"
Zhou Zhuo covered his nose, bent over and ran to the faucet in the yard. He used cold water to cool his nose for a while and finally stopped the bleeding.
He felt hot all over, so he took off his sweater and cooled down in the yard for a while.
Lin Qingqing muttered to herself in the room: "I've eaten too much meat these days, and Xiao Zhouzhou is getting irritated."
Zhou Zhuo calmed down in the yard for a while, and the heat finally faded away. When he entered the house, his wife had already gotten into bed, her whole body wrapped in the quilt, with only her little head exposed.
"Zhou Zhuo, go to sleep quickly. Tomorrow is New Year's Eve, and Mom has to go back to the village."
Zhou Zhuo didn't say anything. He filled the infusion bottle with a hot water bag and quietly put it under her feet.
He couldn't sleep. Sleeping was torture for him now.
He turned off the light and sat at the desk reading by flashlight.
Lin Qingqing felt that Zhou Zhuo had become more and more fond of reading recently, but she wondered if he could understand the words on the books. She fell asleep while thinking about it.
Zhou Zhuo stayed up until midnight before quietly going to bed and lying down far away from his wife, reciting mathematical formulas in his mind.
Only memorizing can calm him down and help him fall asleep quickly.
The next day was New Year's Eve. People got up early in the morning to set off firecrackers. Xue Guixiang also got up early to cook dumplings.
The two got up, ate dumplings, and then went back to the village with Xue Guixiang.
No one except the village chief Zhou Dafu knew that the Zhou family was doing business in the county town, especially the old Lin family. Zhou Dafu kept it a secret.
Besides, the Zhou family left quietly, and Xue Guixiang didn't interact much with the villagers, so no one noticed that his house had been empty for a long time.
Xue Guixiang took a bottle of wine and two fish and sent them to the village chief. She offered the rest to the various gods in her family and the rest to her parents' graves.
She first offered sacrifices to the various gods in the house, burned incense, and asked Lin Qingqing to watch over the incense. Then she set out for Xiaoma Village to visit her parents' graves.
Zhou Zhuo wanted to take her there by bicycle, but Xue Guixiang said no and asked him to stay at home with his wife.
Xue Guixiang hurried all the way to Xiaoma Village, burned some paper on her parents' graves, cried for a while, said a few words to her parents in the underworld, and then went to Xue Guibao's house with fish and meat.
It's the New Year, and I wonder if her younger brother has cut some meat for the children. It's okay for adults to suffer a little, but she doesn't want to see her three children suffer.
Unexpectedly, the broken fence door of Xue Guibao's house was closed tightly, and no one answered her after she shouted for a long time.
She got anxious, kicked the broken door open, and went into the house carrying her things.
There was no spark in the room, it was as cold as an ice cellar, and the table was covered with a layer of dust, as if no one had lived there for several months.
Her heart tightened. Did something happen at home?
Just as I was thinking about it, I suddenly heard the door open and someone came in.
