Chapter 4: Zhou Chengniang's nagging

Pei Xiu was lying on the kang, frowning. The three children were okay with it. What if there was an extra husband, they would all have to share the same bed. It's okay to be injured now, but what about when the injury heals?

Zhou Cheng finished packing the tableware and told the three children to go back to the room to sleep, then pushed open the door and entered. There were no oil lamps in the room, and he couldn't see his fingers, but it didn't affect his sight. He walked towards the kang, it was autumn now, and he didn't need to take off his clothes, just lay down.

Pei Xiu leaned against the corner of the wall, closing her eyes and pretending to be asleep. In such an embarrassing moment, it is inappropriate to say anything or sleep with your eyes closed.

Zhou Cheng knew that Pei Xiu hadn't slept, but he didn't plan to say anything. After a while, listening to the slow and steady breathing of the person next to him, he was already asleep. At this time, one foot came over. Zhou Cheng's eyebrows trembled. Go to sleep.

As soon as he arrived at Mao, the rooster croaked, Zhou Cheng woke up, glanced at Pei Xiu and continued to close his eyes. Thinking of letting her sleep more, it only takes half an hour to walk to the town, and it's not a problem to get up later.

When it was dawn, Pei Xiu woke up, and Zhou Cheng was no longer there. She doesn't know the time, and she doesn't know what time it is. But today I'm going to town, get up quickly. Pushing open the door, Zhou Cheng was chopping firewood, and when he saw Pei Xiu coming out, he said: ''Wake up, it's just 12 hours, I went to call Uncle Zhou to see if I need to change the medicine, and by the way, I went to my brother's house to push the trolley. You wash your face first, wake up the three children, the chicken soup in the pot is already hot. ''

''it is good. ''

The three children walked out of the room sleepily. The chicken soup is still half a bowl per person. Pei Xiu told the three children, "Chicken soup is very oily and can't be eaten too much. It will cause diarrhea. If you eat it now, you won't be able to eat it later. If you're hungry, let the big brother cook porridge for you. Do you know the rest? Chicken can't be eaten until evening. Mother goes to town, come back in the afternoon, don't run around at home, catch worms and earthworms to feed the chickens.'' Pei Xiu thought and added another sentence.'' Children who are disobedient will not have new clothes to wear. ''

Hammer is more honest,''Okay, mother, I will be optimistic about my brother feeding the chickens,''

At this time, Zhou Chengniang called at the gate of the hospital: 'Miss Hammer, are you okay with the injury on your head? You said that you broke your head after being sick with cold for a few days. I came over the day before yesterday to see that you were fine, so I brought it with me. Your two sisters-in-law go to your aunt's house to deliver the confinement. I didn't get home until it was dark yesterday, and I heard about it when I came back, and I don't know how to be careful, how much would it cost to see a doctor and take medicine, and how much would it cost...'' Zhou Chengniang said the more she said, the more distressed she felt, as if she had dug her heart out.

Pei Xiu put down the table and chopsticks, listening to Zhou Chengniang's nagging, interrupting her, "Have you had breakfast, mother, please have a bowl of the pheasant soup stewed last night. ''

Zhou Cheng's mother pouted, a chicken is worth more than 20 yuan, and I don't know how to sell it." I don't eat it. What kind of chicken soup do I drink when I'm old, I keep it for my three good grandchildren to make up for it. Poor, my little bench is only a handful of bones. '' Zhou Chengniang touched the back of the bench's head, and then touched his back, feeling distressed.

The bench twisted and said: ''Grandmother, don't look at me young, I have strength, and even a dog can't beat me. ''

Pei Xiu was ashamed...

Zhou Cheng put the cart at the door, and helped Dr. Zhou come in with the medicine box, ''Mother is here, I just went to the eldest brother's house to borrow the cart, and the eldest brother said you came here. When I go to town with Pei Xiu, my mother will help me take care of these three children. '' He turned his head and said to Dr. Zhou again, ''I want to trouble Uncle Zhou to show my daughter-in-law again. ''

Dr. Zhou sat at the table, took Pei Xiu's pulse, and Wang Wenwen cut it and said, "Mother Hammer's cold is no longer in the way, drink more hot water, it will be healed in two days, you don't need to take medicine, brain After the injury is replaced, don't touch the water, it will be healed in a few days. ’’ Doctor Zhou is a barefoot doctor in this village and a member of the Zhou clan. This village is called Xishan Village. There are many surnames Zhou and Wang. Everyone is relatives around the corner.

After changing the medicine, Uncle Zhou warned again, ''The wound is not healed, UUkanshu must not touch water. ''

''Thank you Uncle Zhou, you sit down first, and I'll get you the medical fee. '' Pei Xiu got up and went back to the room, found the piggy bank, and took out a pile of money. In memory, it cost about fifty cents per visit to add medicine.

''Uncle Zhou, you came over to bandage my wound the day before yesterday. I woke up yesterday morning and found out that the hammer gave you a basket of eggs. The medicine and medical fees have not been given to you. This is a lot of money. Do you think it's enough? pay. ''

Uncle Zhou took the coins, counted ten coins, and returned them to Pei Xiu. '' There were twenty eggs in the basket yesterday, worth ten cents. ''

Pei Xiu took the copper coins, which were ten cents anyway, so he could buy five meat buns.

''Okay, I'll go first, you don't need to call me if you're okay. After two days, take off the bandage yourself and let the wound scab over. '' Doctor Zhou took the medicine box and went home.

''Hammer, I will send you Grandpa Zhou out, and by the way, bring your two younger brothers to catch worms and earthworms to feed the chickens. '' Pei Xiu hurriedly sent the three children to play.

''Mother, go back first, and come over to cook for the three boys later. Pei Xiu and I went out first and went to town. '' Zhou Cheng confessed to his mother, then took the prey and put it on the door trolley.

Zhou Chengniang frowned as she walked and thought about each other, '' she was injured, she had to run to the town, and a trip would cost money...

Pei Xiu ignored her. When she didn't hear it, she went back to the room and took out the piggy bank again. After thinking about it, it was more convenient to bring money. There are many things to buy today. All the money was taken out and put in his arms. Put the piggy bank back, locked the cage, and locked the door.

When he walked out of the house, Zhou Cheng was already waiting there, and asked Pei Xiu to sit up too.

Pei Xiu was not hypocritical, after all, she was still injured.
