"Oh my, why did I hear a flock of crows cawing so early in the morning? Ha, it turns out they weren't crows, but you, Auntie Three and Auntie Four?"
Zheng Mudan was about to get out of bed, and had just walked out of the hospital when she saw this scene.
She is not Su Zhen, who is very sharp-tongued. She can talk so fast that the faces of the old ladies turn pale and blue.
People in rural areas are most afraid of hearing the word "crow", as it represents bad luck.
What's more, calling them crows, if someone else had said that, the three aunts would not have been polite.
The scary thing is Zheng Mudan. Even the combined life skills of these old ladies are better than hers.
At this point, the third aunt could only say awkwardly, "Mudan, why are you saying that?"
"Hard to hear?" Zheng Mudan raised her eyebrows. "Oh, Third Auntie, you know what you say is hard to hear. But you keep mentioning Yuzhu and her baby, and what are you pretending to be thinking? If you think about it, what you say is not just hard to hear, it's vicious. You're a vicious woman."
"Ah, what you said..."
The old face of the third aunt suddenly turned red.
The others didn't dare to say a word.
Zheng Mudan didn't bother to pay any more attention to them. She walked forward and said, "Ah Zhen, come to my house. I have eggs." After saying that, she rolled her eyes at the three aunts and the others and said, "It's okay. My family is reliable. It's not difficult to send a dozen or twenty eggs occasionally."
Why does this sound a bit boastful?
The three aunts looked at each other, feeling a little envious and jealous.
Yes, Zheng Mudan just wants to show off, and these old nagging people just want to make them jealous to feel comfortable.
Seeing them like that, Su Zhen couldn't help laughing after walking a few steps. "Sister-in-law, the three aunts have to obey you. Otherwise, no one in the whole village can beat them in a quarrel."
Zheng Mudan also laughed and said, "When facing people like this, we should break the law and not admit defeat. We can say whatever we want to them. If we give them a chance, they will just take advantage of us!"
"Yes, I will learn from you slowly."
Su Zhen went to Zheng Mudan's house to take twenty eggs and insisted on keeping the money.
After returning home, she waited for the sound of Tian Yuzhu getting up in her room, and then she hurried to the kitchen to light a fire and cook some poached eggs in sugar water.
Chengcheng and Doudou knew that Second Aunt was not feeling well and wanted to eat eggs, so they did not argue or be greedy, but stayed in the main room with the old ancestor.
Su Zhen was afraid that Tian Yuzhu would be reluctant to eat after seeing the baby, so she went back to the house and asked Chengcheng and Doudou to go to the village to play with other children.
The two little ones ran out of the house sensibly. After a while, Tian Yuzhu got up.
In fact, she fainted yesterday not because of hypoglycemia, but she couldn't explain this to anyone, so she used hypoglycemia as a cover-up.
Unexpectedly, when I woke up, I saw a big bowl of poached eggs in sugar water.
"Listen, sister-in-law. You have to eat all these eggs no matter what. Even if you don't care about yourself, you have to take care of the baby in your belly. Besides, our family conditions are better now than before, so we don't need them."
Su Zhen wiped the water droplets from her hands with her apron, and her face had never been so serious.
He looked like he wouldn't leave until she finished eating.
Tian Yuzhu looked helplessly at Shi Zhentang, then at the old lady: "Grandma, is my sister-in-law treating me like a pig?"
The old lady smiled and said, "Girl, your sister-in-law is right. I support her this time. You must finish eating."
"But... five eggs!!!"
Shi Zhentang pursed his lips and said, "I have to go to town and call to ask for leave. Just eat obediently."
Hey, this man ran away at the critical moment when he was needed.
Tian Yuzhu could only bite the bullet and reason with Su Zhen: "It's like this, sister-in-law. You know I can't eat that much with my normal appetite. What if I can only eat two of the five eggs, and the remaining three will be wasted in the soup? Otherwise, you can bring a bowl and I will divide three into them first. If you want more after eating two, you can pour more."
Su Zhen was embarrassed: "I just want you to eat it all."
The old lady was at a loss whether to laugh or cry: "Alright, alright, Ah Zhen, don't make it difficult for her. Just do as the girl says. If she can't finish it in one meal, let her eat it in two meals."
"Why!"
Only then did Su Zhen happily go to get the bowl.
Tian Yuzhu had a miserable life. With her grandmother and sister-in-law watching over her, she couldn't even leave the eggs for Chengcheng and Doudou.
Sure enough, he felt relieved only after feeding her five cocks in two meals.
At lunch time, I was fed buns again and I was so full that I couldn’t stand it anymore.
Fortunately, Shi Zhentang, who had gone to make the phone call, brought back good news: "Grandma, we have to leave this afternoon. The troops will be moving in two days, and I have no choice but to leave!"
In the afternoon, the couple drove directly to the provincial capital to stay for one night and took the train the next day.
Tian Yuzhu was secretly happy to hear that she could leave in the afternoon. At home, Su Zhen stared at her closely, wanting to stuff all the food into her mouth.
The old lady was a little unhappy. "I was thinking of letting Yuzhu recuperate for a few more days. Why are your military leaders so unsympathetic?"
"Grandma, military orders are as heavy as a mountain. You know this principle best." Tian Yuzhu immediately hugged her and coaxed her: "Don't worry, you see how energetic I am today. I'm fine."
Shi Zhentang realized that his daughter-in-law was fed up with the way her sister-in-law fed her.
He clearly received his wife's pleading eyes, so he added solemnly: "Yes, military orders are like mountains, there is nothing I can do."
"well!"
The old lady didn't enjoy her meal.
After the meal, Su Zhen was busy cleaning up. She boiled the remaining eggs into boiled eggs for the children to eat on the way, and also prepared some pickled vegetables.
She was busy kneading dough and making pancakes. She was in a panic for a moment and was stopped by Tian Yuzhu: "Don't be anxious, sister-in-law, take your time. I have to go next door to make medicine for Xiaoli. It will be a while before I leave."
"Okay, okay." Su Zhen was no longer in a panic and prepared food for them on the road in an orderly manner.
Here, Shi Zhentang accompanied Tian Yuzhu to the old courtyard.
Shi Weiqiang was not at home. When asked, Shi De said that he had gone to see the land that had been allocated to his family.
Shi Zhentang said, "Dad, don't you want to go and take a look?"
Who wouldn't want to see the newly divided land? Every farmer loves his land like his life. Shi De was also itching to see some of it, so he said, "Then you guys take care of Xiao Li. I'll be back soon."
"Don't worry, Yuzhu will need to make medicine for her, it will take more than an hour."
"Okay." Shi De felt a little embarrassed to look at his daughter-in-law. He treated her like an unfaithful elder, so he quickly left the old house.
After he left, Shi Zhentang went to lock the courtyard door from the inside.
The next task of boiling the medicine was left to him, and Tian Yuzhu went directly to the inner room to hypnotize Shi Xiaoli.
After several days of Chinese medicine treatment, Shi Xiaoli has greatly improved her stress response. She is no longer afraid of people and no longer crawls under the table.
She would not pull her hair like crazy, and even when Tian Yuzhu entered the room, she dared to look at her.
"Do you know who I am?"
Tian Yuzhu sat opposite her.
At this time, Shi Zhentang in the kitchen put the medicine in a clay pot and hurried over to take a look. Seeing that Shi Xiaoli was very quiet and his wife was not in danger, he felt relieved and continued to boil the medicine.
