Chapter 69 Don’t cry, come and hug me
Qi Erya playfully glanced at Qi Daya, who was running in the field in a panic, and said with a laugh, "She is just like that, cousin, don't worry about her."
She has been listening to him complaining about the unfairness of God while making up nonsense for more than ten years and has long been accustomed to it.
It's getting dark.
Cuckoo--
Qi Man's lower abdomen growled at an inopportune moment. She touched her shriveled stomach and stared at Qi Erya eagerly: "I'm hungry."
"I see." Qi Erya smiled and replied, "I knew you would be hungry when you came back, so I cooked some pork ribs porridge. You can eat some liquid food at night to help digestion."
After spending some time together, Qi Erya was well aware of Qi Man's love of food, so she would always keep some food at home.
In addition to three meals a day, some filling food should be prepared in advance at night to prevent Qi Man from being hungry.
Qi Man's eyes lit up, and she turned around and ran into the house. She entered the kitchen, where there was still steam coming out of the pot.
As soon as the lid is opened, a rich meaty aroma hits you in the face. The mushrooms and ribs are visible to the naked eye, and a layer of chopped green onions is sprinkled on top. It looks very appetizing and tempting.
Qi Man was about to drool, and she hurriedly served herself a bowl of hot porridge, and ate it with gusto, regardless of how hot it was.
Although he ate quickly, his movements were quite elegant and graceful.
Qi Erya was terrified and reminded her worriedly, "Cousin, eat slowly. No one will snatch it from you."
Qi Man held a pork chop in her mouth and gave a thumbs up to Qi Erya who was sitting opposite her. She spoke a little unclearly: "Good...good time!"
fragrant!
This made Qi Erya laugh and cry. She quickly poured a glass of water and placed it next to Qi Man. She supported her chin with one hand and looked at her cousin who was eating with relish with a smile. She felt that her life now was extremely happy.
I have a kind grandfather and a cousin whom I haven't seen for decades but treats me like her own sister. I can eat well and wear warm clothes.
Things like these were something she had never dared to imagine before.
As I thought about it, my eyes couldn't help but become moist and turned a little red. I tried hard not to cry, but tears overflowed from the corners of my eyes.
Qi Man, who was enjoying her meal, suddenly noticed something was wrong. She looked up at Qi Erya, whose eyes were red, and wiped away the tears from her eyes with her fingertips. She said softly, "Don't cry. Come here and give me a hug."
This one sentence made Qi Erya unable to hold back any longer and she threw herself into Qi Man's arms and burst into tears.
"Cousin... I, I really don't know how to thank you and Grandpa."
Qi Man glanced at the pork chop porridge that she hadn't finished yet, then slowly set her eyes on Qi Erya, stroked her fluffy hair, and consoled her: "You're welcome, we're family."
Qi Erya cried more fiercely. After nearly half a quarter of an hour, she gradually stopped crying. She raised her head from Qi Man's arms and looked at her delicate little dress covered with tears. She said with some guilt, "Cousin... Cousin, I'm sorry! I soiled your clothes."
I heard from my grandfather that my cousin’s little dresses are very expensive, costing several hundred yuan, and sometimes you can’t even buy one like this for a few hundred yuan.
Qi Man looked down at the water stains on her belly, without any change in expression. Instead, she silently picked up the half bowl of pork rib porridge that was still a little warm, took a bite of the ribs, and said vaguely:
"It's okay. No matter what, you have to wash the clothes!"
After saying that, he quickly swallowed the half bowl of salty porridge.
Looking at her cousin who had her cheeks stuffed up like a little hamster, Qi Erya blew snot bubbles and couldn't help laughing: "Yes, I wash them all."
After a bowl of pork chop porridge, Qi Man was extremely satisfied. She gently pinched Qi Erya's sagging face and said, "As long as you don't touch my bottom line, I will protect you forever. Do whatever you want. I'm behind you."
Just based on Qi Erya's cooking skills, Qi Man has to protect her own little chef.
Qi Erya was so moved that she almost burst into tears. She forced herself to hold the tears back and forced a smile.
"good!"
Qi Man touched her slightly bulging belly, blinked her eyes, looked at Qi Erya blankly, and said, "Grandpa and brothers?"
"Grandpa went to bed early, and my brother went to the county town to find a job today and hasn't come back yet." You answered Qi Man's question while cleaning up the dishes.
Qi Man took a sip of water to moisten her throat, and patted her chest with a solemn promise: "When my brother comes back, tell him not to go out and look for a job, because I'm here for you."
Now I am a wealthy woman. Even if I have to support a hundred people who eat for free, it is no problem.
"Okay! I'll tell my brother when he comes back."
Although she didn't know why her cousin was so confident, Qi Erya still chose to trust her unconditionally.
Nowadays, resources are scarce, most people are not well fed and clothed, it is hard to find a job in the county town, and one has to earn work points every day to exchange them for food the next month. Although life is hard, it is fulfilling.
At the same time, Qi Erya was also very fortunate that she would be taken under the wing of her cousin.
There was meat to eat every meal and new clothes to wear.
With nothing to do, Qi Man returned to her room. On the surface, she was sleeping, but in fact, she had entered the space to absorb the zombie crystal cores and improve her own strength to ensure that she could escape unscathed if she encountered difficult problems in the future and have the ability to protect the people she wanted to protect.
The next day, when Qi Man woke up, it was already noon. Grandpa Qi was walking in the yard. He saw his granddaughter rubbing her eyes and walking out of the room with a hazy face. He smiled kindly, "Man Man, wake up. There's food in the kitchen. Come on and eat. Erya and your brother have gone to work."
"Okay!" Qi Man responded sweetly and went into the kitchen. When she opened the lid of the pot, there were braised pork with preserved vegetables, some green vegetables, and half a bowl of soup. It was quite rich.
After a simple wash, she took out the hot dishes and rice from the pot and ate while chatting with Grandpa Qi.
"This is the game that Xiao Xie brought early in the morning. He asked us to keep it in the chicken coop and kill it when we want to eat it."
Qi Man heard the sound and looked through the fence. She saw a lot of game in the chicken coop, including pheasants with clipped wings, little wild boars with injured legs, and some rabbits. These were enough to eat for several days.
Old Master Qi was still mumbling to the side: "Xiao Xie is so thoughtful. I heard that he was going on a long trip today, but he sent so many game to our house early in the morning. I have lived in Qingyun Village for so long, but this is the first time I see Xiao Xie caring so much about someone."
While muttering, he would occasionally observe Qi Man's attention.
The latter, however, was enjoying the food seriously, and didn't notice the hidden meaning in Mr. Qi's words at all. He nodded his head and said, "It's really thoughtful. I'll return the gift when Comrade Xie comes back. We won't take advantage of Comrade Xie."
Mr. Qi: ...
