Shen Qingli also got up. The noise outside woke her up. She was very sleepy and looked very weak.
Zhou Yubai stepped forward and supported Shen Qingli.
"If you're not awake, just sleep a little longer."
"I'm not sleepy anymore." Shen Qingli couldn't help but yawn while speaking.
Zhou Yubai was made to feel a little amused and helpless by his own wife.
Gu Qichuan glanced at Shen Qingli, curled the corners of his lips, and served porridge to Shen Qingli and Zhou Yubai and placed them on the dining table.
Everyone greeted each other and had breakfast together.
After dinner, Gu Qichuan and Zhou Mingyue went to work.
"I'm speaking for Yu Bai. It's really not a good time to ask for leave." Sheng Qin said.
Shen Qingli is newly pregnant and she needs more care.
This was something Zhou Anning and Sheng Qin had discussed before. They had always lived in the mountains, and Sheng Qin hunted and farmed every day, so these farm tasks were not difficult for him.
"This..." Shen Qingli looked at Zhou An Ning somewhat embarrassedly.
"It's okay, Qingli. Your brother-in-law likes to do some work. We don't have to look after Maomao and Niuniu. I can lie down when I'm tired, right in your yard." Zhou An Ning said.
Zhou Yubai thanked Sheng Qin.
"I'll accompany Qingli for two days and then go to work." Zhou Yubai said.
"It's no big deal, let's go." Sheng Qin followed Gu Qichuan and Zhou Mingyue to work.
Rarity goes to school.
Zhou Yubai took care of the two pregnant women and two children at home, and also went to see Ermao who was recuperating from his injuries.
Ermao was actually a little restless. Although he had been working hard to cultivate, he still felt bored.
Ermao knew that Zhou Mingyue had moved back to her own courtyard, and Zhou Anning and the others were also there. So, he should be able to have his own room.
After breakfast, Ermao thought that Zhou Yubai and the others had gone to work, so he went to find their boss to discuss coming back to live.
As soon as Ermao entered the room, he heard Zhou Yubai gently say to Shen Qingli, "You take a rest for a while, I will accompany you and Niuniu to Erya's house. You are pregnant now, so you need to be more stable."
Ermao’s head was buzzing, what did he hear?
His brother-in-law said that his eldest daughter was pregnant.
His eldest daughter is pregnant!
Emma, his sister, his sister is pregnant.
Ermao ran in excitedly, "Sister, you have a baby?"
Shen Qingli saw Ermao was so excited that he almost hugged her, and her expression softened a little. She nodded, "Yeah."
"Oh my god, that's great, sister!" Ermao was so excited that he wanted to jump up, "Does Songque know?"
"It was just confirmed yesterday, and I haven't told her yet." Shen Qingli said, "Why did you run out?"
"My arm doesn't hurt anymore, sister. I want to come back and live here. I have to protect you." Ermao said seriously. He wanted to wave his arms, but Shen Qingli glared at him... and he calmed down.
"It's okay to come back and live here." Shen Qingli thought about it. She knew Ermao couldn't stand loneliness, and it was good enough for him to practice for two days.
"Okay, then I'll... I mean, wait for Ruirui to come back in the evening to help me pack my things." Ermao coughed lightly twice.
"Qian, let me help you clean up." Zhou Yubai said.
"Okay, thank you, brother-in-law." Ermao said without hesitation, "Brother-in-law, you go by yourself, I'll stay here to protect my sister."
Zhou Yubai was a little amused by Ermao's vigilance. He didn't say anything, went to Gu Qichuan's yard, packed up Ermao's things, locked the door, and then returned to the yard.
Ermao and Zhou Anning had already gotten to know each other by now.
"Kiyori, your brother is really good looking."
"Sister, your brother looks better." Ermao said with a smile.
Zhou Anning and Shen Qingli were both amused.
Niu Niu and Sheng Yishen were both in a bad mood. They huddled together and sat there.
"What's wrong? Niu Niu and Maomao look unhappy. Has anyone bullied you? How about your uncle help you get revenge?" Ermao approached Niu Niu.
"Uncle, we are fine, just a little sad. It's okay." Niu Niu sniffed.
"Niuniu, don't cry." Ermao looked at Shen Qingli, and Shen Qingli shook her head gently.
Ermao didn't know what was happening outside, so naturally he didn't understand why Niuniu was sad.
"Qian, we have to go out for a while, you..." Zhou Yubai was about to say that you stay at home for a while.
Ermao had already stood up, "I'll go with you."
"Sister, let me help you walk." Ermao stretched out his uninjured arm in front of Shen Qingli.
Shen Qingli: This idiot is quite cute.
She stood up holding Ermao's arm.
"Sister, we want to take Niu Niu to visit Erya's home. I'll let Shan Dian and the others guard the door." Zhou Yubai said.
"Okay, don't worry about me. I'm pregnant now and I'll be fine." Zhou An Ning said softly.
"Mom, I want to go too." Sheng Yishen wanted to accompany Niu Niu.
Zhou Anning grabbed Sheng Yishen's hand and said, "Maomao, can't you stay with your mother?"
Sheng Yishen was suddenly caught in a dilemma.
"Maomao, stay with your aunt, we will be back soon." Niuniu made the final decision and then reached out for Zhou Yubai to hug her.
Zhou Yubai held Niuniu in his arms and went out with his family. He carried 20 kilograms of brown rice.
There is a lot of food at his house, but... you can't give too much.
Zhou Yubai knows too well that kindness breeds hatred.
When Shen Qingli saw Zhou Yubai taking the food, she looked at him with admiration.
The family soon arrived at Erya's house.
The captain gave the family a day off, which was the greatest favor within his authority.
When Zhou Yubai and his friends arrived, Yang Laosan was squatting at the door of his house, and the sounds of two women crying could be heard intermittently from the room.
"Third brother." Zhou Yubai stepped forward.
When Yang Laosan saw Zhou Yubai, he stood up quickly and asked, "Brother Zhou, why are you here?"
"Let's come and take a look." Zhou Yubai handed the brown rice to Yang Laosan, "It's a token of my appreciation."
"No, we can't have it..." Yang Lao San said that he couldn't have it, but his hands didn't have enough strength to push the food back...
Their family was so poor that Arya never had a full meal until her death.
His eldest daughter has been trying hard to eat less. The child is so hungry that he can't even stand up, and his wife has become so thin that she looks unrecognizable.
Yang Laosan's eyes were filled with tears. He also wanted to live a good life.
But why is life so difficult?
He was clearly working very hard, but his life was getting worse day by day.
"Third brother, don't be like this. Everything will be fine." Zhou Yubai patted Yang Laosan on the shoulder.
Shen Qingli looked at the tall man who bent his back and felt very uncomfortable. They were too poor. The idea in her mind that she wanted everyone to be rich, at least to have enough food to eat, became clearer and firmer...
"Well, it will be fine. Come in, come in quickly." Yang Laosan invited the family into the house.
As soon as she entered the room, Shen Qingli saw Daya lying on the kang. She looked to be about seven or eight years old, with a thin face with prominent cheekbones and a very pale face.
"Let Daya go to school." Shen Qingli turned around and said to Yang Laosan.
Yang Laosan moved his lips but couldn't utter a word for a long time. He had no money.
"Rui Rui's school provides free meals. They have an egg in the morning and basically have fine grains and meat for lunch." Shen Qingli added hurriedly, fearing that they had misunderstood.
Eggs?
Fine grain?
Meat?
Yang Laosan and Erya's mother were both stunned, with disbelief written all over their faces...
