The Pretty Eldest Daughter of a Scholar's Family

Chapter 42 Doubt
After the Yuan family and his son were sent away, Su Yunduo was even more moved when he looked back at the two loads of firewood carefully.

These two loads are all hard firewood. Compared with the pile of firewood she and Su Zexuan picked up, I don't know how much more durable this kind of firewood is.

Although two loads of firewood were far from enough for Su Yunduo's family to survive the cold winter, Yuan's father and son actually did something to send charcoal in the snow.

Compared with those relatives in the old house, the heights stand out!
Although there are two loads of hard firewood in the firewood room, the pile of firewood on the mountain still cannot be given up, which is also the best excuse for Su Yunduo to go out: "Mother, I haven't had time to carry the firewood that my brother and I picked up just now, I will carry it down the mountain." come down."

After finishing speaking, Su Yunduo was ready to go out.

"Duoduo, just stop, we will go together when Xuan'er comes back, I don't worry about you going alone!" Ning already knew that the Su Yunduo siblings were picking up firewood on the hillside behind the courtyard today, and the mountain road behind the courtyard has been dead for more than a year. People walk around, who knows what will happen along the road, how can she rest assured that Su Yunduo will go up the mountain alone, so she hastened to hold Su Yunduo to prevent her from going out.

Although Su Zexuan is only a child, but with him and Su Yunduo going up the mountain together, at least the siblings have a care.

At this time, Ning wished that she could accompany Su Yunduo up the mountain to carry firewood. Unfortunately, she looked at her big belly and sighed again. She knew that even if she could go up the mountain, Su Yunduo would not agree. With self-knowledge, even if she is not pregnant, she will not be able to do physical work.

I will not talk about it when I was a girl. There are brothers and sisters in the family, and she is a girl from the town. Although Ning is not a lady of the big family, she is definitely a Xiaojiabiyu. Her parents never asked her to do physical work. Embroidery work depends on Ning's own happiness. She can embroider if she wants to, and it doesn't matter if she doesn't want to. Anyway, the family doesn't lack the money.

After marrying Su Chengzhi, because she is good at embroidery, a budget-minded person like Yang naturally knows how to use Ning to get the most benefits. Therefore, when Ning comes to Su's house, besides doing endless embroidery, besides occasionally going to the kitchen to help The handle has never done any physical work, so asking her to carry firewood might not be as good as the eight-year-old Su Zexuan.

Seeing that Ning's attitude was resolute, Su Yunduo couldn't hold on any longer, so she had to be patient and went to the house to bring some walnuts that were drying in the sun and moved a wooden stake that was used as a stool to deal with the appearance of the walnuts. By the way, I would like to ask If Ning's family had food and silver, what should they add.

Before the mother and daughter could say a few words, another person came from outside the yard. This time, it was Liu Yuli and his son, who, like the Yuan family, had a load of firewood for each person, and they were also helping each other in a timely manner.

Su Chengzhi, who just lay down, couldn't lie down, struggled to sit up from the bed again, and wanted to go to the window to talk to Liu Yuli and his son, but was stopped by Su Yunduo.

Liu Yuli's father, Liu Dongshun, was a brother of the same generation as Liu Donglin and Liu Dongting. You're welcome, but it's just two loads of firewood. As long as we have some strength, the family in the mountains will need firewood. I only hope that Mr. Su will take good care of himself, and Yuli and the others are all waiting for Mr.'s advice!"

Hearing these words made Su Chengzhi feel warm in his heart, but at the same time, he couldn't help but feel sour and bitter, and he also questioned whether his constant concessions over the years were right or wrong.

People say that distant relatives are not as good as close neighbors, and his family is not as close as close relatives. The nearly 30-year relationship between father and son and mother is not as close as the folks in the village!

Su Yunduo didn't know that Su Chengzhi had a psychological change because of the help from the two families. If she knew, she would definitely add fuel to the flames.

At this time, Su Yunduo was feeling regretful!
Because there were two more loads of hardwood in the house, she had no excuse to go out.

Although I was very regretful and extremely worried about the situation in the old house, my heart became much more stable, and I was no longer as absent-minded as before when dealing with the walnut skin.

She doesn't worry about grannies, even if grandparents withhold money, uncle Qi and Liu Donglin must agree to it. I'm afraid it will be difficult to get the money back, so these walnuts will be the source of money for the family, so naturally they have to deal with it as soon as possible.

Su Yunduo buried himself in the walnuts, and Ning Shi also wanted to come to help, but was stopped by Su Yunduo.

Now the family still needs Ning to do some embroidery work, so naturally her hands can't do this kind of rough work.

What Su Yunduo hopes most now is that Su Chengzhi can recover as soon as possible and keep his teaching seat in the school in the town, then the family will be relieved, and the Ning family will be able to wait for the confinement with peace of mind.

Of course, this is just Su Yunduo's wishful thinking. Even if Su Chengzhi's body shows signs of improvement, it doesn't mean that it will be fine if it is good.

As the saying goes, illnesses come and go like a mountain, and Su Chengzhi's disease is not tuberculosis, but it obviously hurt his lungs. It is definitely not easy to really recover.

Even if Su Chengzhi recovers from his illness, whether he can keep his teaching position in the town school is still a question mark. After all, the tuberculosis hat on Su Chengzhi's head may not be so easy to remove, unless there is a great opportunity for him to meet a recognized genius doctor to diagnose him, but the genius doctor What is it that ordinary people like them can meet? !
In order for this family to improve, apart from Su Chengzhi recovering as soon as possible, he must also make money!
With money, even if Su Chengzhi loses his teaching seat, he can still continue his imperial examination path. With money, his younger brothers can go to school. If they are willing to study, let them study for the imperial examination.

Su Yunduo thought of ways to make money one by one, but she vetoed them one by one. She is not the kind of extremely smart person, although she is a little clever, and her little cleverness seems to be very important to the current family. It's of no use.

Ugh……

Su Yunduo sighed faintly in her heart. Although she was thinking about things like boiling a pot, her movements of peeling the skins in her hands did not decrease at all. Seeing that the walnuts she had carried back today had been handled in a mess by her, but There is still no sign of Su Zexuan, let alone the figures of Qi Shugong, Liu Donglin and others. Could it be that someone in the old house has some kind of moth, and they are not even willing to return the rice to them?

Su Yunduo finally couldn't sit still anymore, stood up and patted the walnut skins that fell on his body, poured the walnuts without the skins back into the bamboo plaque, and carried them to the back of the house to dry.

First go to the kitchen to boil Su Chengzhi's medicine, and when he came out, he saw Su Zechen who was dozing off on Ning's body, frowned and stretched out his hands to carry him to the room to lie down. Then he glanced at Ning who was also absent-minded and said: "Mother, look at some medicine on the charcoal stove, I'll go to the old house to have a look."
