Faced with the neighbors' blame, Xiao Jiahua had to take the time to explain that Shitou was crying only because he wet the bed, and she did not hit the child. It was all a misunderstanding.
Although Wang Guiqin was skeptical, after all it was someone else's housework, so she didn't make any comments. She just blamed her own granddaughter for having to make a fuss and come to "mediate the fight."
"Yaya is also very considerate. Thank you for your concern for brother Shitou!" Xiao Jiahua smiled and grabbed another handful of sugar candies.
I bought this at the supply and marketing cooperative during the day because I knew it was for children.
Children like sweet things by nature, so they caught it reflexively. However, they didn’t want adults to teach them in time, so they immediately cried and apologized to their grandmother.
Wang Guiqin was angry and helpless: "Kid, thank your auntie quickly."
"Uh, thank you Auntie Xiaoxiao."
In a word, it's rare for a little girl to speak so eloquently.
.
When Xiao Jiahua returned to the main house, Xiao Dabao had already helped Xiao Shitou change his pants.
The two brothers shook hands and made peace, lying beside the cart and chattering.
"Mom, look!" Xiao Dabao held his hands in surprise.
They are two cylindrical milk candies with rabbit patterns printed on the candy wrappers.
"White Rabbit Milk Candy?" Xiao Jiahua was also surprised. This thing was in short supply and even the supply and marketing cooperatives couldn't buy it.
"The uncle with glasses gave it to me and said it was wedding candy!"
The White Rabbit milk candies are buried among the melon seeds and ordinary hard candies. Even if there are only two of them, they look very luxurious.
What kind of magical family is this, that they can even get White Rabbit candies as wedding candy?
"Mom, you eat it." Xiao Dabao picked one apart and stuffed it into Xiao Jiahua's mouth reverently. He bit the other one in half and shared it with his younger brother.
After several decades, the taste and recipe of the rice are still familiar. Xiao Jiahua was so moved that she wanted to cry.
But thinking about the little girl's howling, tomorrow morning, the whole Qinghe Village would probably think that her adoptive mother had done something evil again.
There's no way not to be angry.
Xiao Jiahua glared at them: "You little heartless ones, my reputation has been ruined by you."
Having said that, Xiao Jiahua still opened the cloth bag, heated up the dumplings and gave them dinner.
After dinner, she took out some malted milk and made a bowl for Dabao and Shitou respectively.
Little Shitou cried for most of the night, and just when he was feeling thirsty, he drank Gululu's milk especially sweetly.
While drinking, he smiled and shouted "Mom, Mom...", and his pronunciation was much more standard than before.
After drinking the malted milk, Xiao Shitou fell asleep contentedly, and Xiao Dabao went to wash the dishes on his own initiative.
Before going to bed, Xiao Dabao suddenly grabbed the corner of Xiao Jiahua's clothes.
"Mom, what you said today is true, right? You won't abandon me and Shitou. You will always be our mother and support us, right?"
"You wish. As your adoptive mother, I will raise you until you are 18 years old at most. It would be a blessing if you don't starve to death!" She was deliberately fierce.
Xiao Dabao smiled sweetly, he had realized that although his mother was a little cold and fierce, she always cared for them and bought them the best malted milk.
As long as my mother is around, I won’t starve to death. This is a very safe and happy knowledge.
"Eighteen is fine. I'll be grown up by then anyway. I'll earn a living, go to college, and join the People's Liberation Army..."
While Xiao Dabao was talking in his sleep, Xiao Jiahua lit the kerosene lamp and continued to organize today's work.
It didn't matter if she didn't buy the snow cream and soap. After all, this face was only eighteen years old, but it had already topped the list of the most beautiful face in the village.
Of course, Xiao Jiahua doesn't care about these. In her previous life, she was at the top of her career at the age of 30, and her name was her most powerful resource.
The little thing about makeup, except for occasionally pleasing herself, has little impact on her work and life.
Now, the most urgent priority for a qualified guardian is to prevent his child from starving to death.
The rice and flour you buy can last you one or two months. There are winter melon and cabbage planted in the yard. Xiao Dabao takes care of them every day and occasionally goes up the mountain to dig wild vegetables.
If you must say what is missing, it is... meat.
The village only slaughters pigs for meat during the Chinese New Year. To have a snack, the men would go up the mountain to hunt when the farm was not busy.
Far water cannot quench near thirst.
