His son Guo Hongqing is 23 years old this year. In this era, 23 is already an older bachelor. He is tall and strong, has been on many blind dates but failed, and has high standards. He said that he has no feelings for people and will not settle or get married.
The younger daughter, Guo Jiaojiao, married and moved to the neighboring town of Qinglian. Because of their geographical location, Qinglian grows two rice crops a year, so they often have rice to eat. Whenever she returns to her parents' home, she brings back large and small bags. The villagers are envious of both daughters, who are so filial to their parents.
Logically speaking, the family was well-off, but the eldest uncle Liang Ying was in poor health. She had a difficult delivery when she gave birth to her youngest daughter, and she has been suffering from postpartum illness ever since. She often had to go out to buy medicine and could only do light work.
"No, I came here after having eaten here. These are the steamed buns I made. I brought them here for everyone to try. Please don't be disgusted." Deng Qingling said a little embarrassedly as she took out the buns and put them on the table. The sweet potato-flavored buns were really too embarrassing to show to others. π_π
"Well, grandma, uncle, uncle, and brother, please take your time eating. I'm going to take some to my second uncle's house." After saying that, Deng Qingling left.
I quickly walked to my second uncle's house, said hello, put down my things and left. When I returned home, I told my mother-in-law that the things had been delivered.
I took a bucket of water back to the room to wash my body and hair (washing the body means taking a bath or shower). After washing, I dried my hair while thinking about things.
What will happen next? Should I continue to stay here? Should I accept everything from the original owner?
It is unlikely that the child's husband and parents will divorce. The father cannot be absent from the child's childhood. In addition, rumors in this era can kill people.
Who would get divorced for no reason? These days, no one would rather die than get divorced, so the possibility of divorce is zero.
Besides, after spending these few days together, I really feel that the people here are very nice. Although there are some trivial matters, when there are conflicts, everyone stands together and is very united.
Well, let's take it one step at a time.
Deng Qingling yawned and felt very sleepy, but her hair was not dry yet. She dried her hair before going to sleep. After all, Deng Qingling didn't want to suffer from migraines when she got old.
It was already past seven in the morning when Deng Qingling woke up. She squinted her eyes and looked at her watch in a daze.
She was thinking about getting up to make breakfast, but she found that there was some breakfast left for her in the kitchen. She didn't see anyone else at home as they all went to work.
After washing up, Deng Qingling changed into a floral stand-up collar top and black straight-leg pants, which highlighted her slender and long thighs. She also simply tidied up her hair and braided it into a pigtail on the side.
After breakfast, I prepare to do laundry.
I took the clothes I changed out of yesterday and went to the well in the center of the village to wash them.
(The terrain here is a valley, low in the middle and high on both sides, with houses built against the hills on both sides. In the center is a well with upper and lower pools. The upper well is used for washing vegetables, and the lower well is used for bathing. The well is also a gathering place for gossip.)
When I walked to the well, I looked up and saw several women hunched over washing clothes by the well.
"Big Bom, Lan Bom, Sister Jing"
"Yeah, yeah, yeah, you come and wash clothes too," several people responded in succession.
She took a few steps forward, put down the tub, cleaned the back, and finished washing the clothes in a few quick strokes.
"Aqing, are you almost done washing? Come and chat with everyone here." Sister Jing saw that she had finished washing and was about to go home, so she hurriedly called out to her.
"It's just a few pieces of laundry, it'll be quick. Okay, let's chat about it." Deng Qingling thought that there was nothing to do at home anyway. It's not like modern times where you can watch TV or play with your phone, so it would be nice to find someone to chat with.
