Yoshida Mii

Chapter 54
At night, Li's cough was severe, and Dong Bao cried even louder, even drowning out Li's coughing, and no one in the noisy Song family could sleep.

Second Aunt Song beat the bed angrily, pushed Second Uncle Song desperately, and asked him to go out and yell twice, "Is this going to make people sleep? That girl Dongbao is crying, her mother is dead or something? Come on!" There are too many people who are sick? What is she trying to do? Delicate! No matter how precious she is, what about me who is pregnant? My stomach is the seed of your old Song family!"

"Okay, okay, I'll go talk to my sister-in-law!" Second Uncle Song couldn't sit still anymore, but it was out of face that he didn't want to go to the widow's door in the middle of the night. Seeing that Second Aunt Song was about to lose her temper, he put on a jacket out the door.

Through the door of the east room, Second Uncle Song put his hands on his hips and shouted, "Dongbao, what are you doing crying and howling in the middle of the night!"

Dong Bao cried loudly: "Second uncle, my mother is very sick! I beg you, go to the town and find a doctor for her!"

"Why are you crazy?" Second Uncle Song scolded, "I'll invite a ghost in the middle of the night! Sister-in-law, don't worry about it, let's see what this damn girl has become!"

What answered him was Li Shi's coughing and Dong Bao's crying.

Huang's voice came from the main room, stern and impatient, "What are you arguing about? Second child, what are you doing up? Hurry up and go back to bed! Get up early tomorrow morning to clean the vegetable field!"

Second Uncle Song stomped his feet angrily, and turned his head to stare at the dark east room. He didn't dare not listen to Mrs. Huang's words, but he was reluctant in his heart. If Mrs. Li was in good health, would he still need him to work?
"God's order! There is no time to rest. I cut so much rapeseed yesterday. I was so tired that I couldn't straighten my waist. I was asked to send my third child off early this morning. It’s too bad that people don’t work, and they can’t even eat white noodles!” Second Uncle Song muttered a few words in the hall, and before Mrs. Huang could say anything, he hurried into the west wing room and closed the door.

Crying and screaming at the top of his voice for most of the night, Dong Bao was so tired that he and Li Shi fell asleep in a daze.

At noon the next day, Dong Bao came to urge Mrs. Huang several times, asking Mrs. Huang to go to the town to get medicine for Mrs. Huang, finally couldn't sit still, and asked her second child to build a shelf for the beans and cucumbers in the vegetable garden in the morning. The second child dawdled for a whole morning and didn't finish the work, the shelf was staggering, and seeing the second child's reluctance and laziness, she was very angry.

In good conscience, apart from not giving birth to a son, Mrs. Li has nothing to dissatisfy Mrs. Huang, especially when it comes to work. , even old man Song is not as capable as Mrs. Li.

Mrs. Li has been ill for the past two days, but Mrs. Huang has been very anxious. She didn't say anything on the surface, but she was already anxious. As soon as Mrs. Li let go, the second daughter-in-law did nothing because she had a baby in her stomach. , now she has to do all the cooking, washing clothes, etc. Huang's heart is full of anger. She is already an old man, and her granddaughter is about to say goodbye. She has to serve these sons-in-law and daughters-in-law .

I want Mrs. Li to get better soon and go to work, but Mrs. Huang is reluctant to pay for the medicine. She remembers what the doctor said clearly. They said that it may not be cured after several doses of medicine. If not, she has to lie in bed ... After thinking about it, Huang's heart jumped up, what if the eldest daughter-in-law fell ill like this?Selling Dongbao will not solve the Song family's plight.

At this time Lin Shi came over, and the handsome young man Xin Chang stood at the door of the east room and asked Dong Bao: "Dong Bao, how is your aunt?"

Dong Bao shook his head, and said loudly with a crying voice: "Brother Dashi, my mother hasn't taken the medicine yet, how can she be well?"

Lin Shi turned his head to look at Mrs. Huang, looked at Mrs. Huang with extreme disapproval, and said in a polite tone, "Grandma Song, why don't you prescribe medicine for auntie? This disease can't be delayed, the more it drags on, the worse it gets!"

When the neighbor boy said that, Huang's old face felt a little offended. Lin Shi was not her grandson, she could be beaten and scolded at will, so she could only vaguely say: "I've been busy these two days, so I didn't take care of..." As he spoke, Huang Shi rolled his eyes on Lin Shi and said, "Dashi, our family has been busy working in the fields these two days, and we really can't get away. If you're okay, help grandma go to town and grab some medicines." Come back and feed your aunt."

"Okay." Lin Shi readily agreed, "I'll go right away."

Huang's smile was from ear to ear, as she expected, Lin Shi is a kind young man, Tagouji is well-known, anyone who mentions Lin Shi will have a thumbs up.

Seeing that Lin Shi turned around and was about to leave, Dong Bao hurriedly said, "Grandma, you haven't paid Brother Da Shi for the medicine yet!"

Huang's eyelids twitched in anger, and he gave Dong Bao a hard look, this dead girl with no winks, just like her mother, is so stupid!
Dashi, who was walking out, also stopped, and looked back at Mrs. Huang.

"This... Dashi, if you don't have a lot of money, go grab the medicine first." Huang waved at Lin Shi, and the wrinkles on his face smiled into a blooming chrysanthemum, "When you Grandpa Song comes back, I will Ask him for the key to open the box and get you money."

Shit!Dong Bao curled his lips, when did old man Song have the right to be in charge of the house keys?Isn't the whole family's money in Huang's hands!

Lin Shi smiled, glanced at Dongbao, winked at her quietly, turned around and said to Mrs. Huang, "There is no rush for money, I have enough. Grandma Song, I'll go first. Dongbao, take good care of Madam." ah!"

Dong Bao hurriedly said "Hey", and said gratefully: "Brother Dashi, please!"

At this meeting, the curtain of the west wing room was lifted, and Song Zhaodi changed into a water-red calico dress, walked up to Lin Shi shyly with a blushing face, and whispered, "Brother Dashi, I... Let's go to the town together to get medicine for the aunt."

Lin Shi looked at Song Zhaodi in surprise, he was not stupid, and Aunt Qiuxia had reminded him several times, she immediately waved her hand and said with a smile: "No need, the road is slippery, I can go alone."

Song Zhaodi said "oh", her face darkened, she stood there awkwardly, wanted to leave but was reluctant to leave, and dared not say anything more.

Second Aunt Song stood in front of the curtain and stomped her feet angrily when she saw her daughter's disappointment.

After Lin Shi left, Mrs. Huang glared at Song Zhaodi, stepped forward and grabbed Song Zhaodi's ear, wanting to curse, but worried that Dongbao was still a little girl, finally twisted Song Zhaodi's ear hard, gritted her teeth and cursed in a low voice: "You What do you want to do? Let me tell you, our old Song family has no shameless brats! Go back to the house and stay!"

After cursing, Huang went into the main room. Song Zhaodi covered her ears and shed tears, her eyes were red, she caught a glimpse of Dongbao standing beside her, thinking that Dongbao had seen all this, she felt ashamed and indignant for a moment, ruthlessly He gave her a ruthless look, said "wait!", and ran into the west wing crying.

Dong Bao was stunned for a long time before she came to her senses, what does this have to do with her?Song Zhaodi's ability to bully the weak and fear the strong has improved again, making people dumbfounded. Dong Bao stuck out his tongue, made a face at Song Zhaodi's back, and then ran to the stove, and couldn't help laughing when he squatted in front of the stove. It seems that after staying in this ten-year-old girl's body for a long time, she has become childish.How could she compare with a 12-year-old girl!
It was estimated that half an hour later, Dongbao ran to the stove and pulled out the stones buried in the stove ash, packed them and smuggled them into the east room, stuffed them into Li Shi's bed, and urged Li Shi to "perform" "Are.

Sitting in the main room, Mrs. Huang knelt on the ground and beat the rapeseed. Hearing Mrs. Li's coughing in the east room, she felt very gloomy, sad and angry.

After removing the stones, Dong Bao took a bunch of firewood and went to the stove, and started to boil water. In fact, Mrs. Li was indeed ill, but she was in good health. It got better slowly, if it wasn't for pretending to be ill, Mrs. Huang would never have kindly let Mrs. Li rest. I'm afraid she would really be very sick if it dragged on until today.

It rained for several days, and the firewood was a little damp. Dong Bao had to light the fire for a long time before he ignited the firewood. White smoke billowed out of the chimney.

"What are you doing?" Song Zhaodi stood in the doorway of the stove and shouted with her hips on her hips, "Why don't you cook and burn in broad daylight?"

Dong Bao fanned the white smoke in front of her. The girl had an expression of "I'm here to find fault". She didn't want to talk to Song Zhaodi at first, but after thinking about it, she turned around and said, "Sister, I'll boil water for my mother."

"Water is boiled all day long, and the firewood is blown down by the strong wind from the sky?" Song Zhaodi muttered with a sullen face, and the person with a vivid expression was a collection of Uncle Song and Aunt Song, "Don't burn it, it's not bad to drink less saliva." Why, the smoke is so heavy, my mother is pregnant with Mao Mao, she can't bear it!"

Dong Bao pursed his lips and endured it for a long time, then said: "It will be ready soon." He continued to add firewood to the stove, and when the water in the cauldron boiled, Dong Bao scooped up a bowl of water with a ladle and held it with both hands. Holding it, he deliberately bypassed Song Zhaodi and walked out.

Song Zhaodi looked at Dong Bao, her cousin was thin and small, and the clothes on her body were also Li's old clothes, but her face was fair and upright, especially her pair of black and bright eyes, which were very beautiful.

Thinking of Lin Shi's attitude towards Dongbao, and then thinking about Lin Shi's attitude towards her, Song Zhaodi was ashamed and annoyed, furious. Originally, she was leaning on the door frame of the kitchen with her hands clasped, but she couldn't hold back anymore and ran in two steps. In the past, he pushed hard Dong Bao who was walking slowly with his head down.

As soon as Dong Bao walked out of the kitchen, he heard footsteps behind him. Before he could dodge the scalding water, he was pushed from behind by Song Zhaodi and pushed to the ground. After going a long way, fortunately, the boiling water was spilled on the ground, and the stoneware bowl was broken.

Lin Shi happened to lead the doctor to the door, and when he saw this scene, he immediately ran into the yard in shock, and helped Dong Bao up. Although he has always been good-tempered, he couldn't bear it now, and said under pressure: "Why do you bully Dong Bao like this!"
