Chapter 39 Shocked by falling into the water
I saw someone in the village heard the noise and looked over, but I was still messing around.
Jiaren didn't bother to waste any more words and ran away.
“Hey, you bastard! Don’t run away, leave me the money quickly, your uncle is waiting for the money to save his life!”
Wu Cuihua chased after him, but unfortunately Jiaren ran too fast and disappeared after a while.
Wu Cuihua was so angry that she fell back, slapping her thighs and crying.
"Conscienceless white-eyed wolf! You don't even know how to feel sorry for your own mother. How can you hope for nothing when you get old in the future?"
However, no matter how much she scolded, Jiaren couldn't hear her, so she could only go home angrily...
In the courtyard of the Li family, no one knew that Wu Cuihua was causing trouble again. She was currently entertaining guests. It turned out that someone wanted to invite Tao Hongying to be the chef again.
This man is also from the next village. He had the Confucius banquet that day and liked it very much.
It happened that my family would also marry a daughter-in-law one day, so I thought about doing it more decently, without having to be fooled by the village women, and hired a serious craftsman, so I found the Li family.
The Li family was naturally overjoyed. Even Tao Hongying hugged her daughter and kissed her again and again. She was stunned by the good news after she had just woken up.
I don’t understand what it means to have a dream, and what happy event happened at home.
Actually, the young and old in the family do not value money.
It was just that Li Laosi and Jiayi had just been taken to the south by **** Liu to work as escorts, and the wages were very high. Then someone else came to ask Tao Hongying to take charge.
Seeing that the life of the family is getting more and more prosperous, everyone feels extremely comfortable.
But Mrs. Li did not agree immediately. She only said that she had something to do at home and she had to think about it and would give the news tonight.
The man was not upset at all and left politely.
Mrs. Li immediately took the good news and went out for a walk. The second sister-in-law Zhang and the third sister-in-law Wu were the most well-informed, and they could find out the details of the marriage owner in just a few words.
After hearing that the family was a decent family and that there were no unruly children or grandchildren, the old lady asked Li Laosan to deliver the letter and decided on a job.
Tao Hongying’s eyes turned red with gratitude when she learned the whole story.
Mother-in-law values her safety more than money, because she doesn’t want her to be wronged.
Old Mrs. Li knocked on the cigarette pot, teasing her daughter-in-law while teasing her about the good news.
"Don't act like that. I'm your mother-in-law. Of course I have to be careful and protect you. I don't want my granddaughter's mother to be wronged. Get ready and go to work tomorrow."
Tao Hongying happily agreed. She originally thought that Jiayin would make a fuss and follow her, but it turned out that Jiayin was very good this time and had no intention of going, which was unexpected.
Actually, Jiayin also wants to go watch the fun, because it’s too boring to stay at home all day.
But the weather was getting colder and colder, and she didn't want to take the risk of catching the wind and cold, causing trouble for her family, and suffering for her small body.
Tao Hongying neatly packed her things and went to work with Li Laosan, his wife and Jia Huan.
When I came back in the evening, I brought back meat and vegetables and two taels of wages.
Hongying gave her wages to the old lady as usual, and the meat and vegetables were put back into the pot. The whole family was so happy that their mouths were watering.
Even though Wu Cuihua looked as ugly as if she had been hungry for several meals, the old lady just rolled her eyes at her and didn't care about it.
They all live in the same village, and the Li family comes and goes. Naturally, the villagers see it and become more and more envious.
The reason why the Li family has been able to establish a foothold in the village so quickly is not only because they treat people well and know how to advance and retreat, but also because the family is united and hardworking.
However, Mrs. Li disagreed after hearing this.
In her heart, the prosperous life at home is all thanks to her granddaughter.
Everyone laughed and agreed every time, but they didn't believe it in their hearts, but they were still very happy to tease the good news that had grown into glutinous rice dumplings.
After a hundred days of good news, it has learned to stand up and is now working hard to evolve into a crawling animal.
She seemed to have grown up a lot and became more and more cute. The chubby little face, the big watery eyes, the long eyelashes, and the little hands as white as lotus roots, look like the lucky dolls painted in the same year, everyone who sees them likes her.
While the weather was fine, the old lady intends to expose the bedding, and the good sound was just a nap, and she surrounded her in the quilt.
Jia'an and Jiaxi wanted to play with their sister, but were afraid of waking up their sister and being scolded by their grandma, so they ran out and went to the river with the children in the village.
Qingshui Village got its name because of the big river outside the village.
The river is very wide, and there are a lot of reeds growing on the riverside. Occasionally, wild ducks are frightened and fly away. If you are lucky, you can find wild duck eggs.
The boys in the village have nothing to do and like to come here to try their luck.
The reeds at this season are withered and yellow, some are still standing upright, while others seem to have surrendered to the cold wind in winter and are crawling along the river bank.
The naughty boys divided their territory by the river and dispersed.
Jiaxi and Jiaan burrowed into the reeds in front of them, and a wild duck actually started quacking.
The two boys were so happy that they ran inside more and more anxiously.
But I don’t know who came here to fish before and dug a big hole in the ice.
The wild duck was not caught, but the two boys fell into the river front and back.
The river water was biting, soaking through their coats and trousers, which made them even heavier. The two of them screamed loudly.
The rest of the boys panicked when they heard it. Some pulled their friends away, and some ran madly towards Li's house.
The Li family was the farthest away in the village, and the people at the entrance of the village were the first to hear the call for help.
When the young and old of the Li family ran madly to the water, Jia'an and Jiaxi had already been taken out.
Fortunately, the water level at the river was low and they were not drowned, but their lips were turned purple from the cold.
Old Mrs. Li raised her hand and gave each of her grandsons a pipe and a pot. She hated iron and said, "You are naughty and risk your life!"
“Milk…cold…” Jia An wanted to speak, but his teeth kept chattering.
Li Lao Er and Li Lao San quickly took off their cotton-padded jackets and ran home quickly, each carrying the other on their backs.
The big basin was filled with hot water. The two boys were stripped naked and stuffed into their stomachs. A large bowl of **** soup was poured into their stomachs as if they were free of charge.
The whole family was frightened. They wanted to scold him but were reluctant to do so. If they didn’t, they would get angry.
When Jiayin woke up with a yawn, she saw that the atmosphere at home was not right, and she was startled, thinking that something had happened to her father and second brother who were outside.
After finally hearing the reason from everyone's words, she couldn't help but roll her eyes.
These two youngest brothers are so naughty.
Falling into the river in the middle of winter is a real misfortune.
Sure enough, neither the hot bath nor the **** soup was of much use, but within half an hour, Jia An Jiaxi started to feel hot and her face turned red.
Old Mrs. Li endured her anxiety and gave the order immediately.
"Go to the village chief's house to borrow a car and go to the city to see the doctor. Don't delay. Be careful if the fever is severe and there will be two more fools in the house."
Jia Xi and Jia An were so frightened that they started to cry. Finally, they were made into rice dumplings and thrown on the donkey cart.
Fortunately, the county seat is close, so I came back in an hour.
Four doses of medicine, taken for two days, cost one tael of silver. It was ridiculously expensive, but it was really useful. After drinking the medicine soup, the two boys had reduced their fever.
When it got dark, each of us ate a big bowl of braised noodles. We snored all night and were full of energy the next day.
Including the good news, everyone in the Li family felt relieved.
