Lin Mei came in with peanuts and just heard this.
She had always thought Sun Jiaxue was a nice person, and now she treated her as a good friend.
She didn't understand why her sister-in-law was so disgusted.
"Come, have some fried peanuts to savory your mouth."
Lin Mei came in happily and said.
Li Dahua stood up and left immediately after seeing her come in. She had always disliked Lin Mei. But she couldn't let outsiders see it during the New Year, lest she become a laughing stock.
Lin Qianxia took two fried peanuts, peeled them with her fair little hands, rubbed the skin and put them in her mouth.
Lin Mei was stunned by her exquisite taste in eating.
Farmers don’t rub off the thin layer of peanuts when eating them. They just eat them directly.
"Mingqing wife, you are about to give birth, right?"
"Yes, there's still another month."
"If you didn't look at your belly, you wouldn't be able to tell you were going to be a mother. You look like an unmarried girl."
Sun Jiaxue felt a little embarrassed by what she said and said, "Did you go out to pay New Year's greetings just now?"
"I went out for a while, took a walk and came back."
Li Xianghong came over and asked, "Sister-in-law, have you seen the new red hairband I bought?"
"On the table in the main room."
When she heard this, she ran to get the hairband.
Li Mingqing was chatting with the team leader and the village chief in the house.
Since everyone was not busy, Li Mingqing said, "Village chief, I went out a while ago and saw peanut seeds, sweet potato seeds, and corn seeds for sale. I think the varieties are better than those grown in the village. I think we can exchange seeds."
"Is it reliable? I hope it doesn't sprout after planting."
"It's definitely reliable. I'll bring it to you in a couple of days after I get to work and you can take a look at it before you decide."
"Okay, it's amazing that you still care about your fellow villagers."
"What are you talking about, village chief? How can I not think about my fellow villagers when I grew up in the village?"
After saying this, Li Mingqing left and prepared to go home.
"Jiaxue, let's go."
He went over and kindly helped Sun Jiaxue up from the bench.
Sun Jiaxue was already used to it and didn't think anything was wrong.
Li Dahua saw it and thought to herself, it's just a pregnancy, there's no need to make such a fuss.
The village chief and Li Mingqing went out together.
As soon as Li Mingqing turned the corner out of the alley, he saw Old Lady Xu.
She stood there basking in the sun with Xu Yaozu in her arms.
As soon as he saw Li Mingqing, he immediately came over with the child in his arms; "Happy New Year! Come, grandson, wish your uncle Li a happy new year."
The child looked up at Li Mingqing, not understanding anything.
Old Mrs. Xu manually asked her child to bow his head to wish a happy new year.
She said awkwardly, "Don't you think children should show some respect when wishing you a happy new year?"
This is a legitimate way to ask for New Year's money.
She is on par with Zhou Xiaoshuang.
"Yaozu, Happy New Year, may you be healthy and happy in the new year."
After he said that, he pulled Sun Jiaxue and continued walking home.
Seeing them about to leave, Old Lady Xu said in dissatisfaction, "The child is so young, shouldn't he be given some New Year's money?"
"If you say so, I'll call all my nephews and nieces over to wish you a happy new year. You can give each of them lucky money. Children are so thoughtful, and as an elder, you can't just be perfunctory. Auntie, don't you agree?"
Old Lady Xu was choked for a moment.
The Li family has so many children that I can’t afford it, I really can’t.
As a result, Li Mingqing had just taken two steps when he heard the muffled sound of firecrackers.
Maybe someone's kid is being naughty again.
After he took another step, Wang Dafeng ran to Li's house in a panic. She was so anxious that she didn't even see Li Mingqing standing there.
Lin Yan followed behind and saw him and shouted, "Dafeng, Mingqing is here."
"What's wrong?"
"The naughty kid stole some firecrackers from home to play with, and they hit his eye. He's bleeding a lot. Go check it out."
Li Mingqing patted Sun Jiaxue's hand and said, "Wife, go home first."
When he arrived, he saw Lin Jinbao sitting there, covering his eyes with his hands, crying heart-wrenchingly.
You can tell at a glance that the injury is extremely serious.
Old Lady Lin cried and asked, "Mingqing, is the child's eyes okay?"
"I don't know yet. I have to go to the county hospital."
"County Hospital?"
"Yes, the county hospital. We need surgery. I'll stop the bleeding first. Jinbao, go lie down and don't move."
When Lin Yan heard that he had to go to the hospital, he immediately went to the village chief to borrow a cow and a cart.
The village’s cattle are important property and cannot be lent out at will, but since human lives are at stake, the village chief immediately agreed.
Wang Dafeng was about to go too, but Old Lady Lin said, "Don't go. Lin Yan and I can go."
She got off the donkey cart with a worried look on her face, and Li Mingqing followed her to the county town.
The villagers sent them to the village entrance and then went back.
"You damned child, why don't you keep a close eye on your brother? If anything happens to Jinbao, I will definitely not forgive you. Just wait for it."
She cried and scolded Lin Zhaodi.
The captain said, "Why are you scolding the child? Zhaodi is so frightened, so just say a few words."
Wang Dafeng squatted down and cried.
She didn't pay attention at all and caused a disaster, and she felt scared.
The village chief drove the ox cart quickly, trying to shorten the time as much as possible.
No one feels good about this happening during the Chinese New Year.
In previous years, there were also naughty kids who got injured because of secretly setting off firecrackers, but they were just some skin breaks, nothing that serious.
Lin Jinbao was tired of crying and lay quietly on the cart.
Lin Yan worriedly comforted him, "Jinbao, don't sleep, we'll be at the hospital soon."
A small stone blown up by firecrackers flew into his eye. Fortunately, it did not injure any vital parts, but he needed surgery to remove it.
