Song Lili understood clearly that good health is the most important thing. If you are reluctant to eat well, and your health collapses in the end, all the money you save will not be enough to pay for medical treatment and recuperation.
Therefore, taking good care of your health is the most important thing.
You can tell the difference between their two children just by looking at them.
Not only is he physically strong, but he is also taller than his peers and has great strength, so he is not afraid of being bullied by others.
Ahem, I digress. Let's get back to the present.
The little boy's eyes lit up immediately when he heard that he would be having egg pancakes for dinner.
"I want to eat, Mom, I want to eat egg pancakes."
He loves eating egg pancakes, finds them very delicious, and thinks to himself, "I wish I could eat them every day."
Little did he know that even if he couldn't eat it every day, he could eat it every other day.
"Then tell me, where did Da Da go?" Song Lili was persistent, determined to get the little bun to tell her where Zhang Qinghua went.
"They fought, and Grandpa went to see." The little boy wrinkled his nose. "I'm not a good boy. I don't fight. I'll let Grandpa spank me."
He still remembered his mother's words of scare tactics: if they fought, she would spank him.
"A fight? Who's fighting?" Song Lili asked in surprise, not expecting a fight to have happened.
But who is it?
Little Baozi had no idea; he had only overheard a sentence while playing and remembered it.
When Song Lili asked for details, he couldn't answer.
He ignored Song Lili and climbed to the corner of the kang (a heated brick bed), hiding behind the quilt, saying, "Mom, come find me."
Looking at those tender little feet, Song Lili really wanted to say, "Son, could you at least hide them properly before you say anything?"
Helpless, I could only comply, "Okay, hide well, I'm coming to find you."
Ha, I'll stand right here and see how long you can hide.
Surprisingly, this kid is quite patient. He hides behind the blanket and doesn't come out, showing no signs of being in a hurry.
If it weren't for the occasional twitch of his little feet, Song Lili would have thought he was asleep.
Bored while waiting, she lay on the kang (a heated brick bed), muttering to herself, "Where is it hidden? I can't find it!"
Otherwise, the brat will ask, "Mom, where are you?"
As she continued to deceive him, Song Lili fell asleep and slept soundly, ignoring her son.
This is the scene that Zhang Qinghua saw when he came in.
Song Lili lay down fully clothed, breathing evenly, clearly asleep. She wasn't even covered by a blanket, but thankfully the kang (heated brick bed) beneath her was warm, so she wouldn't catch a cold.
He walked over helplessly, touched Song Lili's cheek, which was warm, and then took the blanket to cover her with it.
But who could have imagined that as soon as the blanket was moved, a little bun suddenly fell over, startling Zhang Qinghua so much that he quickly threw down the blanket and caught the little bun's head.
Upon closer inspection, I was both amused and exasperated to find that the little guy had fallen asleep and was even snoring softly.
Zhang Qinghua was getting annoyed. What were these two doing? They were both asleep, and in such a strange way at that.
One was lying down, and the other was sitting.
He laid the mother and child side by side, covered them with a blanket, and then went out the door.
"Brother, what happened?" Zhang Qingguo asked, as he was setting up a small stool in the yard.
"Yes, a few educated youths got into an argument, and then they couldn't agree and started fighting," Zhang Qinghua said casually, sitting next to him and helping out.
"Don't you think these educated youths have too much free time? Why do they have so many things to do every day? They're always arguing or fighting."
“When have they ever stopped coming here? It gives me a headache,” Zhang Qingguo shouted in a loud voice.
"Keep your voice down, your sister-in-law and Xiao Chen are sleeping, don't wake them up." Zhang Qinghua glared at him.
"Brother, you're such a good husband to your wife. Everyone says you're such a good man."
Everyone in the village who has seen how Zhang Qinghua treats Song Lili says that Song Lili married the right person and is enjoying a good life.
She treated her like a precious gem, even more tenderly than other families raise their daughters.
This is not the treatment a daughter-in-law receives; even a daughter wouldn't be treated the same. That's why everyone says that.
Of course, while some praised him, others looked down on him, saying that Zhang Qinghua was spineless and afraid of his wife.
Zhang Qinghua didn't care about any of that, as long as they were doing well.
"No matter what he says, your sister-in-law has already suffered a lot since she married me, so I can't treat her any worse."
Feeling wronged? Where did you feel wronged? How come he doesn't know?
Zhang Qingguo scratched the back of his head, unable to understand what had wronged him.
Zhang Qinghua knew that a young woman in the prime of her life who marries you not only has to take care of your family, but also be filial to your parents and bear your children. Isn't that a hardship?
If a man doesn't treat his wife better, he doesn't deserve to be married.
Besides, Lili is such a good daughter-in-law.
"You should treat your wife better too," Zhang Qinghua said to Zhang Qingguo, his voice filled with emotion.
Zhang Qingguo felt wronged. How had he ever treated his wife badly? He had only followed his older brother's example, okay?
Although it wasn't to the extent that an older brother treats his sister-in-law, he was still very good to Lin Xue.
"Um"
In the end, he reluctantly agreed. He had followed his older brother since he was a child, and he would listen to whatever his older brother said.
Song Lili had no idea that while she was sleeping, Zhang Qinghua had given Zhang Qingguo a lesson. When she woke up, she realized it was getting late.
Thinking that she had promised Xiao Baozi she would make him egg pancakes, she quickly got up and saw Xiao Baozi sleeping next to her.
She wasn't surprised; such things happened all the time. Waking up in a different place or direction often happened, and she was used to it.
He patted the little dumpling's face, yawned, and then lazily went out.
"You're awake?" Zhang Qinghua was sitting by the door, and she saw him as soon as she came out.
"You're back? Xiao Chen said there was a fight? Who was fighting?"
"A few educated youths got into a fight over a disagreement."
Song Lili stopped in her tracks. "Sent-down youth? Why?"
Is it really because they have nothing better to do than start a conflict now?
"They said someone was going to return to the city in a few years, and then the others were envious. They said a few sarcastic things, and then a fight broke out."
This reason is quite absurd.
Song Lili seemed a little lost in thought. Back to the city?
It seems that ever since the educated youth were sent to the countryside, there have always been educated youth returning to the city, right? However, the peak of educated youth returning to the city is coming soon.
She couldn't help but mutter, "What's there to be envious of, jealous of, or resentful about? In another year or two, everyone will be able to go back. What's there to fight over?"
She spoke softly, and was so engrossed in her thoughts that she didn't notice Zhang Qinghua had walked up to her and overheard everything she had just said.
You're saying you can all go back to the city in a year or two? How will you go back?
Zhang Qinghua looked at Song Lili with deep, inquisitive eyes and a knowing look, a thoughtful expression in his gaze.
