Lu Haici was so happy to hear his mother laugh, and continued: "When my aunt took me to the countryside, I saw a big dog chasing a big cock, so a small dog must be better than a small cock."
Lin Qingqing listened and couldn't help but be curious: "Why did my aunt take you to the countryside?" Lu Cheng's aunt's family is in the county town... But it's strange, how could Lu Cheng be raised by his aunt? Lu Cheng didn't tell the original owner about this, and the original owner knew a little about it. First, her classmates mentioned it to her, and then before they got married, Lu Cheng mentioned it, but Lu Cheng didn't say the details.
Lin Qingqing understood the reason that Lu Cheng did not say. If the two were in a normal relationship, they would definitely mention the family affairs. However, Lu Cheng was threatened by the original owner, so he naturally would not think of mentioning the family affairs. But even if Lu Cheng was threatened by the original owner, he did not get angry with the original owner. Whether on the way to the army or after arriving at the family compound, he gave the original owner the dignity and care he deserved.
"My aunt's hometown is in the countryside." Lu Haici said, "But I don't like to go to my aunt's hometown."
Lin Qingqing washed his hair and body, then wiped him dry and changed him into clean clothes: "Why don't you like to go to my aunt's hometown?" Fortunately, Lu Haici did have clothes, and the child's clothes were not bad.
"Because the kids there all say I have no parents." Lu Haici's tone was a little disappointed for a moment, but then he said proudly, "But now I have a father and a mother. When I go back, I will tell them." The kids he was talking about were the relatives of his aunt and uncle.
Lin Qingqing felt sad when she heard this. She could understand Lu Haici's feelings at that time because she had experienced it. Thinking of this, Lin Qingqing said softly, "Okay, when we go back, we will tell them that our little Lu Haici also has a father and a mother." If at the beginning, Lin Qingqing treated him as a child in the kindergarten and herself as a kindergarten teacher, then now, she has more empathy.
Lu Haici smiled immediately: "Yeah."
Lin Qingqing took out a palm-leaf fan from the house, which she had taken out when she was tidying up the room: "Little Haici, use the fan to dry your hair, I'm going to take a shower." The child's hair was short, and the towel had already wiped it half dry. If he blew it with a fan, it would dry faster.
"Hey." Lu Haici liked to respond loudly, and he was very energetic.
Lin Qingqing rubbed his hair and took the water to take a shower.
She took a quick shower. Although the original owner was lazy, she still loved to be clean, and she was also very diligent in taking a shower and washing her hair. Therefore, Lin Qingqing finished taking a shower and washing her hair in less than 30 minutes. If it were in modern times, with a shower, she could finish in less than 10 minutes.
After taking a bath, the two of them blew their hair together with fans in the yard. Finally, little Lu Haici couldn't sit still anymore, so he stood behind Lin Qingqing and blew her hair.
Xu Huijuan from next door came out to pour water and glanced at Lu's house. Seeing this scene, she couldn't help thinking that Lin Qingqing couldn't pretend anymore and took advantage of Lu Haici to fan her when no one was paying attention. Xu Huijuan shook her head. She was determined to be a good military wife, a good wife, and a good mother in this life, and she would not get close to Lin Qingqing again. However, Lu Haici was a poor child after all. You have to know that in his previous life, even if Lu Cheng and Lin Qingqing divorced later, he was still very withdrawn because of the shadow of his childhood.
Thinking of this, Xu Huijuan decided to give Lu Cheng a heads up when he came back. After all, he was an innocent child, and she would help if she could.
When Lin Qingqing's hair was about 70% dry, she went back to the room with Lu Haici. But she didn't go to bed right away, because she had to go to the carpenter's house to order some furniture tomorrow, so Lin Qingqing was going to draw the sample picture. The original owner, a poor student, didn't have paper and pen, but fortunately Lu Haici did. Although he was a kindergarten kid, he still had all the school supplies.
So, Lu Haici lay aside and watched Lin Qingqing draw.
Lin Qingqing didn't draw much, just three things. One is a five-drawer closet, which can be used to store clothes. In addition to winter coats and cotton-padded jackets, sweaters, bed sheets, quilt covers, etc. can all be put in. She plans to order three five-drawer closets, one for each of her, Lu Haici, and Lu Cheng, and put their things in their own five-drawer closets. This is not only convenient for finding things, but also clean.
The second is a shoe closet, which is placed at the entrance of the living room, with slippers on it to avoid outdoor shoes coming in and out and making the floor dirty.
The third is a simple double-door wardrobe, with quilts placed under the wardrobe and coats, cotton-padded jackets, and other clothes hung on top.
Because she will not leave the Lu family for the time being, she has sorted out her life first.
While she was drawing, Lu Haici stood quietly by her side. When she finished, Lu Haici's eyelids were fighting, but the child was still trying to sleep. Lin Qingqing smiled and picked him up: "Let's go to bed." Although with the strength of this body, it is not possible to hold a five-year-old child for a long time, but the distance from the desk to the bed is still possible.
The next
day For someone who stays up late all year round, I went to bed around 9:00 yesterday, which is very early. In addition, I slept for a whole day and night the day before, so I woke up very early today.
Looking at the child curled up beside him, Lin Qingqing couldn't help but want to laugh. The child's sleeping posture is too cute, isn't it?
Lin Qingqing got up quietly. From the original owner's memory, she knew that the child had not been sleeping well recently. He went to bed later than the original owner and got up earlier than the original owner. The night before yesterday, he was even more worried about her. He stayed by her bed all night. He knew it from the fact that the towel on her forehead was still wet when she woke up. So at this moment, Lin Qingqing didn't want to wake him up.
Lin Qingqing went to the kitchen to heat water in an iron pot. While heating the water, she put a bowl on the steamer. There were two potatoes and two eggs in the bowl. She was going to make mashed potatoes for breakfast. The reason why the potatoes and eggs were not placed directly on the steamer was because the water in the pot would boil. If it touched the potatoes with skin, the water would be dirty. She kept the water to cool and drink during the day.
Then, she went to wash her face and brush her teeth. The original owner had been spoiled since she was a child, so she had everything she needed. After washing up, she used the original owner's vanishing cream, but not too much, just a thin layer.
There are not many ingredients to make mashed potatoes. If it were modern times, Lin Qingqing would like to use potatoes, eggs, cucumbers, carrots, bacon or ham, and then salad. But there was no salad in this era. You can make it yourself, but it's troublesome, and there is no bacon and ham at this time, so Lin Qingqing only used potatoes, eggs, and cucumbers. But these are enough. Potatoes are carbohydrates, eggs are protein and fat, and cucumbers are vitamins.
She first sliced the cucumber thinly. But her knife skills are average, so she can only cut it slowly. There is no other way. There are too many kitchen gadgets in modern times. When she cooks food live, she uses kitchen gadgets. Her grandmother cuts the cucumbers. Her grandmother is not used to using kitchen gadgets, but her knife skills are quite amazing.
After slicing the cucumber, she marinates it with salt. Because there is no salad seasoning, she puts a little more salt than usual. If there is salad seasoning in modern times, the salt should not be too much.
After the water boils, the potatoes and eggs are ready. Two potatoes and two eggs, just one for each portion. She peeled the potatoes and cut them into pieces, then put them on a plate, mashed them with a spoon, then chopped the boiled eggs and mixed them with the mashed potatoes. After mixing, she squeezed the pickled cucumber slices with her hands to remove the water. After removing the water, the cucumber slices were flat, and then they were mixed with the mashed potatoes so that the salty taste of the cucumber slices could be mixed into the mashed potatoes.
Lin Qingqing had just finished making a portion of mashed potatoes when she heard a child's shouting from the living room: "Mom...Mom..."
Lin Qingqing: "In the kitchen."
Then, she saw Lu Haici running out barefoot. Because he had just washed his hair yesterday, his hair was fluttering, looking very cute. Lu
Haici breathed a sigh of relief when he saw his mother. When he woke up, his mother, who usually waited for him to go to the cafeteria to get breakfast when she was sick, was gone. This scared him, and his mind went blank. He immediately got out of bed to look for her. Now that he saw his mother making breakfast, he didn't even bother to put on his shoes. He just curled his feet and stood at the door of the kitchen to watch.
Seeing this, Lin Qingqing couldn't help but say, "Put on your shoes, then wash up and have breakfast. After breakfast, you have to go to kindergarten." The child hasn't been to kindergarten for half a month. Because "Mom is sick."
"Hey." Lu Haici responded, but after thinking about it, hesitantly asked, "Mom, can I not go to kindergarten?"
Lin Qingqing: "Why not go to kindergarten?" Could it be that the child was bullied in kindergarten? Thinking of the many posts about kindergarten that she had read on the Little Black Book APP, Lin Qingqing was a little worried. Lu Haici's biological mother died early, and it is possible that some rude adults mentioned some things in front of the child, and then some naughty children remembered it and hurt Lu Haici with this matter unintentionally. After all, she was once a victim of such things.
Lu Haici shook his head, and said sensibly and nostalgically, "Mom's illness hasn't healed yet, I want to stay home and take care of her." If he was nervous and expectant about Lin Qingqing (the original owner) before yesterday, then after yesterday, when Lin Qingqing cooked for him, bathed him, and held him to sleep, he became dependent on and envious of Lin Qingqing. This is the mother in his mind, one who cooks for children, bathes children, and holds children to sleep.
Lin smiled and said, "I slept well yesterday and I'm well again, so we don't need our kids to take care of me. Go to the kindergarten today and your aunt Qin and I will go buy some things. If we buy meat, we'll make you meat buns. If we don't buy meat, we'll make you something else delicious, okay?"
Lu Haici's eyes lit up when he heard it, "Okay."
