Liu San held her head and retreated backwards. Usually, when Duan Xiaohe was doing these kinds of things, she would not be so proactive. Was she possessed today?
"Wife, let's talk properly."
Duan Xiaohe threw him down, causing Liu San to be dumbstruck, "My wife, what medicine did you eat?"
"hubby, are you tired of me?"
No, not … After which, he went up to welcome them.
After finishing this fight, Liu San put on his clothes again and said that he wanted to go next door. Duan Xiaohe sat on the brick bed and dressed up, telling him to pick up two things from the kitchen and send them there.
Only after Liu San left did she cover his lower abdomen with his hands and lie back down, feeling a little uncomfortable.
After resting for a while, she got up and got dressed again. As she walked out of the room, she heard the crying of a child next door. There was a man who was coaxing her.
Liu San pushed the door open and entered hurriedly. Duan Xiaohe asked him what he wanted, and the Liu San said that he wanted to give two eggs to the child to eat.
She said what kind of eggs did the children eat, and the children had to drink milk.
Liu San stammered for a while, then embarrassedly said that the woman and child were helpless, and the child was hungry to the point of crying.
After they gave birth, there would always be delicious food, whether it be chicken soup or eggs. She was made by a married woman, and now there wasn't even a stammer. How could a child eat milk?
Duan Xiaohe followed her to the kitchen. Seeing her come in, the Liu San put down the two eggs in her hand, leaving the other two behind.
She sighed, "The child is too young to eat the egg. You take all these eggs to Widow Li's wife for nourishment. Even if you don't have any milk, you have to give your child two more mouthfuls. The child can only have some rice soup at the moment. Bring the things over, I'll make some rice soup here first. "
Liu San was startled, he never thought that she would be so generous.
"Hurry up and go."
Liu San decided to just stand there, "I'll wait for you."
Duan Xiaohe stopped what she was doing, and heard the child next door crying in a hoarse voice, as if she couldn't bear it any longer. You prepare the rice soup and bring it over, I'll go first. "
She placed the eggs back into Liu San's hands. Liu San thought that she did not want to give those eggs to Yue Yang, but since it was necessary, she decided to persuade him otherwise. She picked up another basket of eggs and took out a jar of sweet osmanthus flowers.
The corner of Liu San's mouth twitched. He knew from the start that she wasn't really that heartless.
When Duan Xiaohe arrived next door, she saw that Liu Er was coaxing the children in the courtyard, so she quickly put down the things in her hands and reached out to pick the children up.
Liu Er held the child and looked at her cautiously, his tone unkind as he said that even if he gave birth to a daughter, she would still be a treasure.
She snappily said that the child was too young, so it wasn't appropriate for her to be in such a good mood right now. Pointing to the things he brought over, he told her to use warm water to prepare a bowl of sweet osmanthus flower. As for the taste, it was lighter, she coaxed the child first.
Liu Er looked at the basket of eggs and the small jar of stuff and was completely stunned. Duan Xiaohe took the child and said that if she didn't want this child to cry because he was sick, then she had to hurry and get the things.
In her previous life, although she hadn't gotten married and had no children, she had held both of her elder sisters' children. At this moment, although he had some new hands, the little child became much more obedient after hugging and coaxing him for a while.
Old Man Liu, who was listening inside, was standing in front of his own door looking at Duan Xiaohe, who was coaxing the child. Her posture was even better than Liu Er's.
When Liu Er washed a bowl of sweet osmanthus flowers, he could immediately tell that the taste was too strong just by looking at the color. He also told to cut the amount in half and dilute it a little. Liu Er was startled, and immediately used up all the sugar bowl and poured another bowl out.
She had lived in this house before and knew that the light wasn't good, so she didn't go in. She found a corner to avoid the wind and used a small spoon to feed the child some sweet water. The little child tasted the sweetness and came over with his mouth wide open.
Duan Xiaohe watched and laughed, and carefully fed her another spoonful.
Liu San was worried and came over to take a look. When he just entered the door, he saw the scene and his heart immediately went soft like mud.
This scene was so beautiful that no one could bear to disturb it. This was her wife. The only thing that was lacking was a child that belonged to them …
Seeing that the little child had pretty much finished his meal and had stopped making noise, he closed his eyes adorably. It looked much better than it had on the day he was born. She told Liu Er to cook two or three sweet and watery eggs for Widow Li to mend. Seeing Liu San standing at the door, she also told him to take the money to buy a fat chicken to stew.
The little child had already fallen asleep, so Duan Xiaohe carried her into the house. The widow Li was sleeping with her back to her body, completely ignoring the child.
Duan Xiaohe stood at the side and looked at it, her tone ice-cold. "I see that you don't want this child. How about I tell Father that we'll take this child to my second wife. At least this child will have some hot soup to drink."
With a 'whoosh', the woman stood up and glared at Xiao Yumei with her red and swollen eyes. Duan Xiaohe ignored her, carried the child and left the house. Li Ao and the woman became anxious, they jumped off the brick bed and grabbed onto her, and reached out to grab her.
The sleeping child was awakened and began to wail loudly. The woman immediately retracted her hand. Her eyes were even redder than before.
It was obvious that she was heartbroken.
Duan Xiaohe pursed her lips and sighed, "Go back and lie down."
The woman looked at her nervously and immediately climbed onto the brick bed obediently.
The weather right now was a little colder than when Duan Xiaohe was living in the house. Cold wind blew in through the cracks, whooshing sounds could be heard.
Wife Li was sitting on the brick bed with her hands outstretched, trying to hug the child. Her eyes were filled with anticipation, but also sadness and pity.
As soon as she passed the child over, Widow Li tightly held the child in her arms. She wanted to coax him but didn't know how. The only thing she could do was keep the child in her embrace. Hearing the child's muffled cry, Duan Xiaohe quickly asked her to let go, otherwise the child would be bored to death.
Wife Li then carried the child out in a panic. When she saw her daughter crying so much that her face changed, tears of anxiousness flowed down her face.
Duan Xiaohe reached out and took it, gently patting the child, and gently coaxing him. The child gradually stopped crying and fell asleep again.
Widow Li was dumbstruck and carefully remembered all of her actions of coaxing the child into her mind. She thought that if the child cried again in the future, she would do the same.
"This room is too small. If we don't talk about the ventilation, it would be a bit too dark. Go back to the big house and live more comfortably with the kids. "
Just as they were talking, Liu Er walked in. There were three eggs lying on top of a big bowl, accompanied by the soup, it looked very appetizing.
"Yun Xiang, quickly eat this. After you eat this, you will have milk to drink. "Ol 'Three went to buy some chickens to drink the chicken stew."
Widow Li finally raised her head and looked at the sweet egg in Liu Er's hand, and gulped down her saliva in hunger. As she thought about what he had just said, tears once again flowed down her face.
"Liu Er's heart ached, and he helped her wipe it. Don't cry after giving birth. You must take care of yourself. When the child is asleep, just leave it for now and quickly eat the egg while it's still warm. "
Widow Li glanced at Duan Xiaohe gratefully, then placed the child down and prepared to eat. But the moment he was put down, he started to cry. Liu Er hugged him and coaxed him a few times but he did not stop.
"Hurry up and eat. I'm not used to carrying children for others."
Widow Li was gobbling down the egg in large mouthfuls. She felt that she had never eaten anything so fragrant in her life before. Duan Xiaohe shook her head when she saw her expression, reminding her to eat more slowly and chew more carefully. Hearing that, the Widow Li slowed down her pace and started to eat slowly.
After she finished eating, Duan Xiaohe returned the child to her. The little child did not cause any more trouble and obediently went to sleep.
Duan Xiaohe called Liu Er out and told him to clean up the big house and let the two girls stay there later. He then took out four to five liang of silver and asked him to make some good supplements for the child.
Although he said it was to supplement the child's health, in truth, it was not for the Widow Li to eat. Liu Er took the silver and fell silent for a moment, then nodded his head heavily.
She told him that if he just randomly spent the money, she wouldn't give him money even if he didn't get any to eat. Since Liu San was going to join the army, and both sides were separated, the life and death of the had nothing to do with her.
Liu Er was shocked. Third Bro is going to join the army? "
Old Man Liu was extremely grateful that Duan Xiaohe was able to do something like that. After hearing what Duan Xiaohe said, she quickly rushed over.
"Third brother's wife, what did you say?"
