Chapter 67: You silly girl, what did you just say?
The fields are busy all year round.
After the wheat is harvested, it is time to start planting rice.
When Grain in Ear comes, the rainfall will increase, so after harvesting wheat, we have to start planting rice quickly.
If there is more rain and dew after the rice is planted, it will be easier to produce a good yield in the fall.
Ever since she went to the hospital for a checkup and a doctor diagnosed her with a brain aneurysm, Gu Qijiao has not been out of bed since.
Of course she is not idle either, she writes articles at home every day.
She calculated that manuscripts were slow to send, and estimated that it would take half a month to go back and forth.
In her previous life, she had opened a column in that newspaper, so now she could definitely get her manuscripts accepted. Once her manuscripts were accepted, she could send them to the newspaper regularly.
Now she can write more and save it first.
Gu Dagan and Xie Jinxiang were anxious when they saw that Gu Qijiao had not gone to work for several days.
The rumor was everywhere in the village that Zheng Yunsheng had asked for leave to accompany Gu Qijiao to see a doctor, but in fact he was just hanging out with Gu Qijiao, and when they came back, both of them were carrying full bags.
He also said that Zheng Yunsheng was also led astray by Gu Qijiao, and the couple were both idle, and they didn't know how they would live in the future.
Whenever gossipers mentioned the couple, they would shake their heads and sigh, as if Zheng Yunsheng and Gu Qijiao were really too lazy to make ends meet.
Gu Dagan and Xie Jinxiang never doubted the truth of the rumor. Although Gu Qijiao had changed a little recently, how much could she change?
We are your daughters, and we know what kind of person she is.
It's not like Gu Qijiao hasn't done this before, always using excuses like stomachache, headache, or menstruation to avoid going to work.
Sometimes she lied and forgot, and she did it twice in the past month when she asked for leave on the pretext of menstruation.
Now it is entirely possible to go to the city and go shopping under the pretext of seeing a doctor.
Before they got married, the old couple of the Gu family could still let Gu Qijiao be lazy.
But getting married is different. She is a wife now and will be a mother in the future. Children have to make their own living, so she can't be lazy all her life.
So the old couple decided to go home and persuade Gu Qijiao after discussing it.
But when they arrived at the hospital, they ran into Gu Qijiao taking medicine, and only then did they know that Gu Qijiao was really ill.
The old couple blamed themselves very much, saying that they should have come to check on their precious daughter earlier. Their precious daughter was already sick, and they, as parents, were still outside listening to other people's nonsense, which was really disappointing to their child.
Gu Qijiao didn't tell her parents about the results of the hospital's medical examination. Her parents were illiterate, so she told them that something had grown in her brain, which must have scared them.
He only said that the doctor had advised him not to go out for fear that his condition would worsen and that he could only work after he got better.
The old couple loved their daughter very much. Gu Qijiao was taking medicine now, so they would definitely not bring up the matter of letting her work in the fields.
I just told Gu Qijiao to take good care of her.
There were not many good things to nourish people in the countryside, so Xie Jinxiang asked Gu Qijiao to eat more eggs to nourish her body.
Speaking of eggs, Xie Jinxiang felt uncomfortable. She didn't know what was going on during this period. Xia Xing next door suddenly locked up the chickens.
The two chickens never came to Xie Jinxiang's chicken coop to lay eggs again.
Obviously, it was not hers, but Xie Jinxiang was so distressed by the sudden income that she couldn't sleep.
She had already thought about it. This year, she could sell so many more eggs and use the money to buy something for her family.
But I don't know how Xia Xing suddenly got it.
Thinking of this, Xie Jinxiang couldn't help but sigh.
Seeing her mother's miserable face, Gu Qijiao thought that her mother was worried about her illness, so she couldn't help but comfort her:
"Mom, don't worry, I'm in good health. The doctor said that as long as I take these medicines, I'll be fine, ah!"
"Your mother has been worried for several days. She is upset because Xia Xing'er's chickens suddenly stopped coming to our house to lay eggs!" Gu Dagan told Gu Qijiao the truth directly.
Fortunately, Zheng Yunsheng was not here, otherwise it would be really embarrassing. Gu Qijiao hesitated for a moment and decided to tell her mother the truth.
"Mom, it's not easy for Xia. She married a man, but her mother-in-law died and her husband left. She is the only one at home. She can't even make enough money to eat all year round. She depends on raising those chickens. Don't think of taking advantage of her."
After finishing speaking, Gu Qijiao hesitated for a moment before continuing:
"I told her that her chickens came to our house to lay eggs. Not only that, I also compensated her for the eggs that we had taken away before."
Her mother would definitely be angry if she said this, and Gu Qijiao knew it.
But she didn't expect her mother to react so strongly. She was originally sitting on a stool in the yard, but suddenly she stood up and stared at Gu Qijiao with sparkling eyes:
"What did you just say, you little bitch?"
