Chapter 56: Dividing pastries
This problem of using one's spear to attack the other's shield cannot trouble Zhang Yunniang at all.
She quietly put a coat on her partiality and said: "Your two brothers didn't accompany my mother all morning. When my mother was working, I turned around and saw Niuniu accompanying me. I don't know how happy I was. This bowl Plumeria are the reward given by my mother to my good boy.”
Niu Niu was only five years old and was easily fooled by Zhang Yunniang. While eating frangipani, she was still immersed in the joy of being praised by her mother for being a good child.
After eating the frangipani, Niu Niu touched her belly and said, "Mom, I won't have breakfast."
Zhang Yunniang was slightly surprised when she heard this and asked, "Is a bowl of plumeria flowers enough?"
Although Niu Niu is small, her appetite is not small. She needs at least a bowl of frangipani and a bowl of porridge in the morning, as well as a vegetable steamed bun as big as a baby's fist.
Niuniu said seriously: "I'm really full. If I eat a little more, I might vomit it out."
For people in the countryside, the most important thing is to eat. The child who has always been the most active in eating suddenly said that he could not eat anymore, and Zhang Yuniang was naturally worried.
She reached out and touched Niuniu's forehead. The temperature seemed to be normal.
"Are you feeling uncomfortable somewhere? Do you have a headache or dizziness? Do you want to sleep?"
Listening to Zhang Yuniang's series of questions, Niu Niu shook her head and said, "I'm not feeling uncomfortable. It's just that my little belly said that I really can't eat anymore."
Zhang Yunniang's heart was still in doubt, and she asked again: "Don't want to eat porridge and vegetable steamed buns? It's my fault, you make this every day, are you tired of it?"
Niu Niu shook her head and said, "My mother's breakfast is the most delicious. Niu Niu will never get tired of it."
Zhang Yunniang thought for a while, turned around and walked into the room, taking out a piece of fragrant soft cake.
Niu Niu didn't answer and said: "Mom, if you eat it for me, you will spit it out. It's a waste. I may have to wait for a while before I can eat."
Zhang Yunniang had no choice but to put away the piece of soft cake, but unexpectedly she was looked at by Gu Zhao who had just gotten up.
"There's something good to eat!" Gu Zhao cheered and immediately surrounded Zhang Yunniang, clamoring for food.
Zhang Yunniang was so noisy that her head hurt, so she split the soft cake into three parts.
Gu Zhao almost devoured the third of it as soon as he got it.
Then he looked at the remaining two-thirds with longing eyes, but Zhang Yunniang had no intention of breaking the rules.
When Gu Zhao saw that dinner was about to begin, he immediately jumped up and said, "I'll call Brother to eat!"
After Gu Yan came in, Gu Zhao immediately circled around his elder brother like a little tail, his eyes constantly glancing at the piece of pastry.
After all, Gu Yan was the eldest brother, and his habit of taking care of his younger brother for many years made him want to pass one-third of his share of pastries to Gu Zhao.
"Don't give it to him, don't let him get into the habit of begging for help!" Zhang Yunniang stopped her.
Gu Yan sighed and gave Gu Zhao a helpless look, but he did not eat the pastry. Instead, he wrapped it in a handkerchief and put it in his pocket. He explained to his mother: "My son will eat it when he is tired from studying in the morning." ”
Although Gu Zhao was very greedy, he still wanted to save his face and would not ask for food from his sister. Instead, he urged Niu Niu: "Eat quickly, I just tasted it, it's delicious!"
Niuniu shook her head helplessly.
Zhang Yunniang wrapped up her daughter's share and stuffed it into the small purse around Niu Niu's waist. She also told Gu Zhao: "You are not allowed to coax your sister to eat snacks. Do you remember?"
Gu Zhao raised his head and chest and said, "Mom, who are you looking down on? I'm an elder brother, a manly man. I can't even protect my sister. How could I **** her food!"
Of course, if his sister offered him food, he wouldn't be stupid enough to refuse.
After breakfast, Zhang Yunniang hurriedly washed the dishes and invited Liu Xiaoru over: "Sister, help me look after the two older ones. I'll take Niuniu to the medical clinic."
When Liu Xiaoru heard that Niuniu was going to see a doctor, she was even more anxious than Zhang Yunniang. She kept asking: "What's wrong, dear baby? Where is the discomfort? Sister, do you have enough money? Don't spend it on me first!" Zhang Yunniang couldn't help but feel funny after hearing this. , but in the end, Liu Xiaoru’s panicked look diluted her inner worries.
"Can't eat."
When Liu Xiaoru heard this explanation, she was not relieved, but said: "It's a big deal if you can't eat! Sister, take her to the hospital quickly!"
Of course, according to Liu Xiaoru's level of concern for Niu Niu, maybe it would be a big deal if Niu Niu broke the skin on her hand.
The medical center is not far away, and the doctor took my pulse and got the results very quickly.
"There's nothing wrong with this child. He just eats less. It shouldn't be a big deal." The old doctor said.
However, Zhang Yunniang was still worried. After all, her daughter immediately became unable to eat after making a wish in her dream. Who knows if there is still a hidden disease hidden in her body.
The old doctor said: "Now the child can run and jump, and her pulse is very stable. If she still eats less in a few days, you can bring her over again."
Zhang Yunniang hurriedly asked: "How many days will it take?"
The old doctor thought for a while and said, "Five days."
Zhang Yunniang took out her purse to pay for the consultation and took out a handful of copper coins.
The old doctor hurriedly said: "There is nothing wrong with the child, so why should I pay him?"
Zhang Yunniang still insisted on giving money.
The old doctor said: "Neighbors come to see me. As long as there is nothing wrong, I don't charge any medical fees. Don't break my rules."
Only then did Zhang Yunniang give up.
Niu Niu looked at this scene and felt it was very familiar, as if it had happened before. She tilted her head and said skillfully: "Thank you, doctor, grandpa, and I wish you a long life!"
Although the old doctor is not the same person as the previous doctor in the town, there is no old man who does not like to hear this. Hearing this, he said with a smile: "You have such a sweet mouth, grandpa, I wish you health and safety!"
Zhang Yuniang led her child out of the hospital and couldn't help but sigh: "Niuniu is so amazing. She doesn't spend money every time she enters the hospital."
Niu Niu grinned and said, "Grandpa with white beard told me that I don't have to take the bitter medicine."
Zhang Yunniang looked shocked. She didn't know that such a thing could make a wish. Doesn't it mean that Niuniu will always be in good health?
When Liu Xiaoru returned to the rental house, she immediately breathed a sigh of relief when she learned that Niuniu was fine.
Gu Zhao let out a cheer and pulled his sister to find the bug.
Gu Yan glanced at her mother and followed her with the book. After she was out of the adult's sight, Gu Yan took out the third piece of cake from the morning, divided it into two pieces, and handed it to his younger siblings.
"Eat quickly." Gu Yan urged.
Gu Zhao moved more swiftly than anyone else, but Niu Niu didn't take it, but said: "I really can't eat it, I will vomit it out if I eat it."
Gu Yan touched her head and asked, "Do you feel uncomfortable?"
Niu Niu shook her head and said: "It's not uncomfortable, but I'm a little greedy. It may be fine in a few days. Brother, eat quickly and I'll give you some too."
Gu Zhao looked at the cakes Niuniu took out from her purse and couldn't help but swallowed again.
Gu Yan glanced at the idiot brother who was almost drooling aside, and thought to himself: Brats like that are really nothing compared to my obedient and soft sister!
