On the way back, Aunt Kang thought more and more that the couple was hiding something from them.
"You can't say anything in front of everyone."
Director Gong shook his head. "Who knows what they're up to? Fortunately, the child is fine, so we can rest assured."
Damao and Ermao were very happy, and smiles finally appeared on their little faces.
The younger sister is fine, and the two sisters are the happiest.
From childhood to adulthood, the three sisters have grown up relying on each other. Although they have had headaches and fevers in the past, they have never been as thrilling as today.
Thinking about it now, I still feel scared.
"Aunt, thank you."
Zhou Damao looked at Lin Jingshu with gratitude.
Lin Jingshu noticed the timidity in her eyes and touched her hair with some heartache. "You're welcome. Damao and Ermao are both great. Sanmao is very lucky to have sisters like you."
Da Mao and Er Mao's eyes gradually brightened, and few people praised them.
When they were in their hometown, their grandparents looked down on them because they were girls, and their mother didn't protect them.
Ever since I can remember, I have been helping my family with farm work. When I was younger, I dug wild vegetables. When I grew up, I went up the mountain to look for firewood. My hands were covered with calluses at a young age.
When my mother was pregnant with Sanmao, they were finally able to leave their hometown and join the army, and no longer had to live under the contempt of others.
Damao also had the opportunity to go to school, and Ermao also had many good friends.
Everyone was happy except Mom and Dad.
When Sanmao was born, Damao clearly saw the disappointment on his parents' faces.
She looked at her third sister who was still in the cradle and had no idea what was happening, and her heart felt like it had collapsed.
Why do you dislike them because they are girls?
Damao couldn't figure it out.
"Auntie, the dog is still at home."
Ermao opened the door. Xiaobai heard the noise and ran over, sticking out his tongue and running to Lin Jingshu's feet.
"Good dog."
Lin Jingshu stroked the fur, and Xiaobai squinted his eyes comfortably.
They left in a hurry, and Lan Zi and Xiao Bai stayed at Zhou's house.
Ermao ran into the house and found the coin jar in the cabinet. There was a total of five yuan, and he took out all of it.
"Auntie gives it to you."
Lin Jingshu refused, "The buns are yours, Auntie, so keep the money."
Ermao disagreed and insisted that Lin Jingshu be taken away.
"Auntie has helped us a lot. If we don't take the money, it will be a big loss. Mom and Dad don't know how much money is in the jar."
The implication is that if all these are given to Lin Jingshu, her family will not know about it.
The little girl held up her wrist stubbornly. Lin Jingshu didn't know whether to laugh or cry, so she took the money for the buns and said, "Okay, thank you, Da Mao and Er Mao."
Da Mao and Er Mao's eyes were curved and the corners of their mouths were raised, revealing the innocent smile that should be seen at this age.
Lin Jingshu asked the two sisters and after knowing that they could eat spicy food, she left a bottle of pickled peppers.
Aunt Kang and Director Gong were still at the door, so I just shared it with them.
After taking Xiaobai home, Lin Jingshu first boiled water and took a shower. After staying in the hospital for so long, her body was full of the smell of disinfectant.
I had just finished cooking a bowl and sat down when there was a knock on the door.
Lin Jingshu looked up and found that it was Sister Su who came.
Su Hongping knew that Lin Jingshu had no classes in the afternoon. As soon as she sat down, she asked anxiously, "I heard Sanmao went to the hospital, and you and him went together. What's going on?"
Out of the corner of his eye, he noticed that Lin Jingshu hadn't eaten yet, and said apologetically, "I'm busy asking you questions. Eat first, and we'll talk after you finish."
After Lin Jingshu finished her meal, she told her the whole story.
"It's so dangerous, the child is really lucky."
The fever reached over 40 degrees Celsius, and it is no exaggeration to say that he had stepped into the gates of hell.
People in this era do not have a strong sense of prevention and think that a high fever can be cured by rubbing the body, but this is not the case.
If you encounter this situation, you must go to the hospital immediately, otherwise it would not be surprising if you get burned and become stupid.
"Each of these two is a good match, and I never noticed they were unreliable."
Su Hongping was worried.
"Who knows?"
"Let's not talk about them anymore. I'm going to pick some fruit later. Do you want to come?"
There is a wild fruit forest near the family compound, with all kinds of fruits. Not only the military families in the compound, but also the villagers nearby go there to pick them.
On the island, the thing that is most abundant is fruit, and no one is jealous of these fruits.
Therefore, they are not afraid of being reported when they pick the fruits.
"Okay, when do we leave?"
"You just got back, do you want to rest for a while?"
Lin Jingshu smiled and said, "No, I still have some strength."
Lin Jingshu likes picking fruits the most. This kind of physical activity that does not require any brainpower is suitable for a lazy person like her.
"Okay, then I'll go home and get my things."
After Su Hongping left, Lin Jingshu also hurried to put on protective equipment, changed into long-sleeved shirts and long pants, and put on a straw hat.
Xiaobai was also pulled out for a walk.
Su Hongping also brought her daughter along, as such warm moments will be rare when the child goes to school.
After walking for more than 20 minutes, we arrived at the wild fruit forest. Looking at the backpacks outside, they were already piled with mangoes. Obviously, someone was picking them.
Lin Jingshu came mainly for the lychees, and she suddenly had the idea of making some fruit wine.
The island is like spring all year round. Logically, the lychees should be gone by this time of year, but there is a variety in the wild fruit forest that matures later.
You can still find some leftover lychees here now. The taste is a little worse, but it’s better than nothing.
"Jingshu, there's a ripe banana here. Let's pick it up together."
"Here I come."
Banana trees are the most common fruit trees on the island, besides coconut trees.
After coming here, Lin Jingshu finally knew what naturally ripened bananas tasted like. It was completely incomparable to the artificially ripened bananas of later generations.
Su Hongping asked her daughter to stand further away, and took a sickle, chopping at the branches of the banana tree, easily chopping it down in a few strokes.
Lin Jingshu had already placed the backpack at the place where she fell, and the bananas fell precisely into it.
This banana tree has been visited by mice, and several ripe bananas have been eaten.
There was plenty of food, so the mice ate half and threw away the other half, then removed the rotten parts, leaving only half a plate of bananas for them.
Lin Jingshu and Su Hongping first moved the bananas to the roadside, and then went to look for a lychee tree.
After walking around one fruit tree after another, Lin Jingshu finally found the location of the lychee tree.
This lychee tree is lush and leafy. Even though the fruit-bearing season has passed, there are still many red fruits hanging on the top.
Lin Jingshu put down the backpack, put the machete behind her waist, and prepared to climb the tree.
Su Hongping followed behind and was frightened by her behavior. She didn't expect that Jingshu, who usually looked gentle and elegant, had such a brave side.
"Don't worry, Sister Su."
The original owner grew up in the countryside and was not good at doing manual labor, but he was good at climbing trees thanks to Lin Mu's guidance.
In addition, she is a member of a rock climbing club and often goes to various places around the world for field training, so she doesn't take this lychee tree seriously.
He quickly climbed to the place where the lychees were hanging, took out a machete and chopped the lychees.
Lin Jingshu was chopping at the top, while Su Hongping was picking up the souvenirs at the bottom. Soon the backpack was full.
