Chapter 87 Chapter 87 She might be dying.
Zhao Ruyue knew that her daughter usually wouldn't make a fuss, and she might have something to tell her that she didn't want her father and brother to know.
This is so rare. In the past, whenever the two children encountered problems, they could solve them by discussing it, and rarely did they need their parents to give advice.
The only role the parents played was to help with some of the work that their two children were too young to do.
It is true that this is very worry-free, but as a parent, while you are happy that your child is independent and has strong hands-on skills, you will inevitably feel a little frustrated.
Sometimes it is not that children cannot live without their parents, but that parents cannot live without their children.
Zhao Ruyue didn't realize this before, but now she does. However, now that her daughter suddenly insists on sleeping with her, she can't help but feel a sense of satisfaction in her heart because she is needed.
But she hadn't taken a shower yet, so she said to her daughter, "Go back to your room and wait for me. I'll take a shower first."
"Okay," Ning Shixia nodded obediently, but still reminded him worriedly, "Mom must come, Dad is not allowed to snatch Mom from me!"
Ning Shaoming was both angry and amused when he heard this: "This is my wife, we met first."
Ning Shixia paused, thought about it and realized that what his father said was indeed right: "Okay, I will compete with you, but I will only compete for one day."
She stretched out her short, fat index finger and made a number 1 seriously.
Ning Shaoming said with a smile: "Okay, I'll let you grab it for a day."
Zhao Ruyue ignored the childish father and son and walked towards the bathroom carrying the small basket of clothes.
After taking a shower, wash your clothes and hang them on the clothesline.
Ning Shaoming had just finished taking a bath and had washed the clothes of the two children and put them up to dry.
Normally, whoever sees dirty clothes at home will rub them.
They both agreed that whoever had more free time would do more housework.
After so many years of marriage, they have never had conflicts over these daily trivial matters because neither of them is blind.
But it’s not so bad now that it’s summer. In winter, washing clothes for a family of four is a very strenuous task, and the water is freezing my hands.
Zhao Ruyue plans to check at the end of this month to see how the store’s revenue will be after launching new products.
If I have some spare money, I will buy a washing machine before winter after I purchase a commercial oven.
After hanging the clothes, her hair, which was wet from taking a shower, was almost dry.
I went back to my daughter's room and opened the door. It was a little dark inside, with only light coming from the desk.
The little girl was sitting at the desk, turning on the desk lamp and reading a picture story book.
Hearing the noise, Ning Shixia turned around and saw that it was her mother coming. She put down the storybook, turned on the main light in the room and turned off the desk lamp.
Pulling Zhao Ruyue to climb onto the bed, he said, "Come here, mom, let's talk in private."
Zhao Ruyue followed her daughter and climbed onto the bed.
In order to create an atmosphere for whispering, her daughter even got a blanket and the two of them covered themselves with it, not feeling hot even in such hot weather.
Zhao Ruyue was also happy to play along with her, and asked in a low voice, "What do you want to whisper to mom?"
Ning Shixia leaned close to Zhao Ruyue's ear and said something that shocked her in a very low voice: "Sister Danping said that she is seriously ill and may be dying soon. She wants you to take her to the county town to fulfill one of her wishes, otherwise she will die with regrets."
"Ah?" Zhao Ruyue was shocked when she heard it at first, and thought it was true.
But she had just seen Ning Danping during the last weekend holiday in junior high school, and she didn't look sick.
Not only did she not look sick, but after Ning Shichun came to work in the store, he prepared delicious food for her every week when she was on vacation and when she returned to school.
The restaurant cooked delicious food, and Ning Shaoming was unwilling to send it back to the old house to give to those who had caused him trouble in the past, so he asked Ning Shichun to send some to the school for Ning Danping to eat.
Ning Danping's food improved, and her complexion looked much healthier and rosier than before. After a period of time, she also gained some weight and was no longer as skinny as before.
"Didn't you tell Danping's family about her illness?" Zhao Ruyue suspected that the illness was just an excuse.
Because she heard Ning Shiqiu say that Ning Danping borrowed his bicycle to take her classmates to earn money in order to save money to buy something she had wanted to buy for a long time.
Maybe the things Ning Danping wanted to buy were only available in the county town, but Ning Danping had to go home to help with housework every time she had a holiday. She was probably afraid that her family would find out about her saving and have her money confiscated.
She didn't dare to make an excuse to go to the county town to buy it by herself, so she came up with this idea and wanted me to take her there.
Ning Shixia really thought that her cousin was going to die, and she felt very sad: "Sister Danping didn't dare to tell her, she was afraid that her aunt would scold her. My uncle is a man, she was embarrassed to tell him, and she didn't allow me to tell my father, brother and grandfather.
Mom, please help Sister Danping. She is so pitiful. She has been bleeding a lot. She said that she has been bleeding every month for the past two months. The first time she bled, it was very little, but in the past two months, the bleeding has been getting more and more.
She also showed me the paper she used to wipe the blood. It was a large red patch, and she couldn't wipe it off even if she stacked several pieces of paper together. The teacher said that if a lot of blood was shed over time, the person would really die, and we might never see her again. ”
Zhao Ruyue frowned at first, but as she listened she felt something was wrong. After hearing the rest of the story, she relaxed and changed her mind.
My guess was probably wrong. Ning Danping was not trying to find an excuse to go to the county town, but she just didn't have much knowledge of physiology.
Schools and students nowadays are very reluctant to talk about these things. The schools may not have taught them seriously, and when biology teachers come to class, they are likely to skip over the relevant content.
But her daughter is so grown up now, but Wang Haiyan, as a mother, doesn’t even teach her. She is not as reliable as her mother who was born before the founding of the People’s Republic of China!
Ning Danping probably really believed that she was bleeding every month because of illness.
When she had her first period, her health was probably not as good as it is now. Also, it was her first time, so the menstruation might have been less.
Recently she has been eating well on weekends, and occasionally someone brings her delicious food. She is in better health than before, and it is normal for her menstrual flow to increase.
Zhao Ruyue wondered whether she should take this opportunity to teach her daughter, but when she looked down, she realized that her daughter was only four years old and might not understand even if she explained it to her.
I'd better just briefly mention it and teach her seriously when she is in the fourth or fifth grade.
Zhao Ruyue asked her daughter: "When did your sister Danping show you the paper she used to wipe the blood?"
Ning Shixia said, "This afternoon, she was bleeding again, so she secretly asked for leave to come to me and asked me to ask you if you can take her to the county town when she has a day off this week. Is that okay with me, mom?"
"Of course, it's not a difficult thing. I'll take some time to visit Danping at the town's junior high school tomorrow. By the way, mom will also tell you a little secret."
A little secret between you and your mom?
Ning Shixia was getting excited. Regardless of the fact that his forehead was already sweating, he got into her arms and hugged her arms: "What? Mom, tell me quickly!"
Zhao Ruyue gently wiped her sweat and said, "The secret is that when girls grow up to be as old as your sister Danping, they will bleed every month. This is very normal and will not kill you. If you encounter this situation in the future, don't be afraid. Go home and tell mom, and mom will tell you what to do."
"Really?" Ning Shixia said happily, "Then Sister Danping doesn't have to die, right?"
"Yes." She also told her daughter that the parts covered by her short-sleeved shirt and shorts should not be touched by others, including relatives and other acquaintances. If someone makes her feel uncomfortable, she can stay away from him and she doesn't have to think that it's a bad thing. She taught her to protect herself until her daughter fell asleep in her arms.
Zhao Ruyue lifted the blanket that was covering both of them, and only covered herself and Ning Shixia's waist and belly button.
I was thinking that the little boy might have encountered something bad, so I would talk to Ning Shaoming about it someday and ask him to teach his son how to guard against bad guys and protect himself.
The next morning.
After getting up and washing up, Zhao Ruyue took over the job of buying fresh meat today. When she went to get the meat, she bought two more pieces of pork belly from her elder sister-in-law, which weighed a total of four pounds.
When he got home, he asked Ning Shaoming, who was making cupcakes, to stop what he was doing and stuffed the pork with some mustard greens.
"Didn't you try to make honey-glazed barbecued pork in the rice cooker last night but failed? Don't rush to do other things yet, try again with this piece of meat. I'll take some to the town junior high school to see Danping later."
When girls have their period, they need to eat more meat to supplement their diet. The little bit of meat mixed in the dishes in the town’s junior high school cafeteria is not even enough for children to fill their teeth. How much nutrition can it provide?
Junior high school students are in the period of growth, and most of them, regardless of gender, eat a lot, and their stomachs are like bottomless pits. She plans to bring more.
In fact, it would have been better to bring beef, but unfortunately the beef stall in town was not open today, so we had to settle for the next best thing.
Ning Shaoming took the piece of meat and asked in confusion: "Why do you suddenly want to go to the town junior high school to see Danping? What happened to her?"
"This is a secret between us women."
After she said that, Ning Shaoming probably guessed it, and without asking any more questions, he quickly processed the meat and put it aside to marinate.
Zhao Ruyue was in a hurry to get it, so Ning Shaoming only marinated it for half an hour before putting it in the rice cooker and pressing the cooking button to start cooking.
In just an hour, the honey-glazed barbecued pork was successfully cooked in the rice cooker.
Ning Shaoming took out the meat, sliced it into portions, and poured sauce on it. The color was very tempting.
When Zhao Ruyue saw that the meat was cooked, her mother came to help. She didn't even wait for the morning peak period of customers to pass, and temporarily threw all the work in the store to her mother and asked her to help for a while.
Zhao Ruyue went into the room, took out a black plastic bag, put a portion of fried rice noodles, a one-pound portion of honey-glazed barbecued pork and a few Dorayaki in it, then rode her son's bicycle to the town's junior high school.
Ning Danping had also gotten up by this time. She ran to the public toilet with a stack of paper and hesitated for a long time before coming out with a grim look on her face.
Today is the second day, and the amount is even greater than yesterday. She is worried that it will seep through the paper and stain her pants.
Just when I was about to ask my classmates to help me ask the teacher for another day off, I heard someone say, "Is Ning Danping here? Your family is looking for you. She's waiting for you at the school gate. Go out and check."
Ning Danping was stunned for a moment, then came to her senses and was a little confused: "Is it my brother or my younger brother who is here?"
Although they would occasionally send her some delicious food during this period, it was usually during dinner time in the evening.
"It's not a man, it's a woman, and she said she's your third aunt."
Ning Danping's eyes lit up, thinking that her cousin had convinced her third aunt to take her to Xiacheng specifically to discuss this matter.
She didn't bother to worry about whether the paper padding in her pants would leak out, and she quickly trotted towards the school gate.
When Zhao Ruyue saw her, she didn't bother to say anything else and directly pulled her to the school's public toilet.
When she was in junior high school, she also studied in the town junior high school and still remembers where the public toilet was in the school.
The town's finances are not abundant and little money is invested in education. From the time she was in school until now, the structure of the town's junior high school has hardly changed, except for the addition of an information room for students to learn how to use computers.
This information room was actually donated by a philanthropist from Gangcheng, who also donated a comprehensive building.
But the construction has not started yet, and the information room will be moved to the comprehensive building by then.
She followed her memory and found that the public toilet was still there. At this time, most of the students had gone to the classroom and there were not many people in the public toilet.
Zhao Ruyue opened the black plastic bag and began to teach Ning Danping how to use a sanitary napkin.
