Song Zhi pressed one hand on his chest and supported the wall with the other, vomiting violently.
The three little ones were frightened. They dropped the stones in their hands, ran over and nervously gathered around her.
Dabao and Erbao are boys, and they are stronger. Their eyes were wet at this moment.
San Ya burst into tears and grabbed Song Zhi's clothes and cried, "What happened to Big Sister? I don't want Big Sister to die..."
The grandma in the village vomited like this before and eventually died.
She knew what it meant to die, to never see someone again.
Dabao said with red eyes: "Saya, don't talk nonsense. Sister is just not feeling well."
The three little guys pouted as if they were about to cry, which made Nie Jinmei's heart beat fast.
These three little guys really like Song Zhi.
"Are you okay?" Nie Jinmei took the toothbrush cup from her hand and gently smoothed her back.
Song Zhi covered his chest and gasped several times before he suppressed the nausea.
The baby is four months old, and I’m afraid her pregnancy symptoms will become more and more obvious.
"I'm fine, I just feel a little upset in my stomach."
Nie Jinmei raised her eyebrows doubtfully and muttered, "Is it really just a stomach upset? Why does it feel like morning sickness? My sister-in-law had the same problem back then."
When her sister-in-law was pregnant, she vomited from morning to night and couldn't eat anything, but she especially liked to eat sour or spicy foods.
Nie Jinmei couldn't help but say, "Why don't we go to the hospital for a checkup? If it's something serious, we can get treatment sooner."
Song Zhi's heart skipped a beat and he leaned over to scoop up a handful of water to rinse his mouth.
"Don't talk nonsense. I just have a stomachache. It might be because of the cold weather and the wind."
"Really?" Nie Jinmei scratched her head hesitantly.
Why did she remember that this should be the second time Song Zhi suddenly retched...
The three little guys next to her breathed a sigh of relief. San Ya still had tears in her eyes, and when she smiled, tears started to flow down.
"Big sister, I'm glad you're okay. San Ya doesn't want you to get sick."
Song Zhi raised his hand and touched her head, sighing silently. Given how much the three little guys cared about her, it would be hard for her to stay at Ran Qiu's house without being discovered...
"What are you doing? Come and eat some candied haws."
Rong Zhengqing walked out of the room holding a few candied haws and looked at them surrounding Song Zhi with a puzzled look on his face.
On the way back to the village, she and Nie Jinmei saw an old man carrying a straw rack with many red candied haws on it, so they stopped him and asked if he wanted to sell any.
The uncle saw that there was no one around and they were both little girls, so he sold them a few.
The three little guys looked up eagerly at the candied haws in Rong Zhengqing's hand.
The bright red hawthorn fruit, covered with a layer of yellow syrup, appears crystal clear in the sun.
Just one look and Song Zhi began to drool unconsciously.
She didn’t particularly like sour food before, but maybe it’s because of her pregnancy, but now she wants to eat sour food whenever she sees it.
She wiped her mouth and walked towards Rong Zhengqing with San Ya in her hand.
Dabao and Erbao followed closely behind.
Rong Zhengqing bought five in total. She and Nie Jinmei shared one on the way, then gave one to each of the three little ones and saved one for Ran Qiu.
There were two candied haws lying quietly on the oil paper. Song Zhi licked his lips and reached out to take them.
Nie Jinmei quickly held her hand. Song Zhi was stunned and looked over with a pout.
"Aren't you feeling sick in the stomach? This candied haws is so sour, it will irritate your stomach if you eat it."
Song Zhi: “…”
She glanced at the candied haws reluctantly and said, "I vomited probably because of poor digestion. I should eat something sour to make it easier to digest."
Nie Jinmei held her hand, and she took it with her other hand and stuffed it directly into her mouth.
There was a crisp sound.
She bit off the outer syrup shell, and the sour taste of the hawthorn overflowed, filling her entire mouth.
Song Zhi narrowed his eyes in satisfaction and chewed with a crunching sound.
“It’s quite delicious.”
And the sourness was just enough to counteract the bitterness in her mouth.
Nie Jinmei and Rong Zhengqing were filled with annoyance.
They had experienced the power of candied haws, so they naturally knew how much impact Song Zhi's actions would have on them.
Nie Jinmei swallowed the saliva secreted from her mouth and grinned: "You really don't feel sour?"
This sister is really a ruthless person.
Dabao, Erbao and Sanya held the candied haws in their hands. They were in the process of changing their teeth and could only lick them in small bites. They had no idea whether the candied haws were sour or not.
At this time, Ran Qiu pushed the door open and walked in carrying a bamboo basket.
Dabao's eyes lit up and he ran towards him while shouting.
"Brother Qiu is back, Brother Qiu, what did you pick up?"
Dabao stood on tiptoe to look into the basket, and Ran Qiu lowered the bamboo basket a little to accommodate his height.
"It's a wild duck egg."
It is already March, the weather is gradually getting warmer, and the fields are slowly becoming lively.
The flocks of wild ducks in the reed marshes have returned, and March is their main egg-laying period.
Therefore, Ran Qiu gained a lot today.
Dabao smacked his lips and stuffed the candied haws into Ran Qiu's mouth, "Brother Qiu, you eat it."
Brother Qiu went out early in the morning to pick wild duck eggs so that they could have enough to eat before going to school.
Ran Qiu smiled and shook his head gently, "You eat it."
"Dabao, there is still one here." Seeing this, Nie Jinmei quickly handed the remaining one to Erbao.
Erbao staggered over and handed the candied haws to Ran Qiu.
Nie Jinmei and Rong Zhengqing waited with blinking eyes.
Dabao, Erbao and Sanya had licked the candied haws until the syrup hadn't melted yet. They were eager to know whether the candied haws were sour or not.
Ran Qiu spread his hands and said, "My hands are dirty."
"Then wash it quickly."
Rong Zhengqing and Nie Jinmei consciously split up and acted separately, one took the bamboo basket and the other helped him fetch a basin of water.
While eating, Song Zhi wondered why the two of them were so attentive to Ran Qiu?
If someone shows you kindness without any reason, he is either a traitor or a thief.
Song Zhi slowed down his movements and stared at them intently.
Ran Qiu was stunned for a moment and looked at the three little ones questioningly. The three kids just blinked their big eyes and looked at him innocently.
Ran Qiu pursed her lips and remained silent. She went over to wash her hands and took the candied haws.
He looked at the candied haws and thought, how long had it been since he had eaten candied haws?
Ran Qiu couldn't remember, so under Nie Jinmei's expectant gaze, he slowly took a bite.
The moment he took a bite, Ran Qiu understood what they meant.
He calmly rolled the hawthorn into his mouth and chewed it with a calm expression.
"How is it? Is it sour?"
Nie Jinmei looked at him curiously.
Ran Qiu calmly shook his head, quickly swallowed the candied haws, and swallowed his saliva before saying that it was not sour.
Rong Zhengqing and Nie Jinmei looked at each other and began to doubt their taste buds.
Is it really that their sense of taste is wrong?
Ran Qiu only ate one and gave the rest to the three little ones. When he looked up, he saw Song Zhi squinting in the sun.
"Did you have meal?"
