Pastoral little master

Chapter 60 No More Trust
For the first time, Qiduo went to eavesdrop with Liuju with the mood of being a thief.

As soon as the sisters arrived at the chashou veranda in the west wing, Qiduo heard the sound of beating coming from Mrs. Wu's room, as well as her ugly howling.

"Hush!" Liuju raised her finger and made a silent gesture.

Qiduo nodded slightly, and walked towards Wu's room with her waist bent.

Walking under the window, the voices in the room came into the ears more clearly, besides Wu's exaggerated howling, there were also low voices.

"Father, it's almost there." It was Sizao's voice.

"No, mother, your voice doesn't look real, you pretend to be a little bit." It was Erlang's voice.

"Little debt collector, if it wasn't for you, my old lady would have endured this wretch, her head and face were torn apart by that dead old woman." Wu's voice was full of anger.

However, the sound is a bit rough.

It seems that Zhao Shi really beat him hard.

"Father, keep hitting, don't break the stool, hit the ground." Erlang urged.

Wu's shouts came from the house again.

Qiduo instantly understood what was going on, and quietly gave a thumbs up to the window, awesome!

People can't be judged by their appearance, it really is so, Tan Decai, who is honest and honest, turned out to be a master of acting.

But at this moment, he has no contempt for Tan Decai, because he did this to protect his wife, not for anything else.

"Qiduo, what are you doing under Sanniang's window?" When Qiduo was about to persuade Liuju to leave, Sandao's malicious voice suddenly came from the east chamber.

Qiduo's back froze, and she hurriedly looked sideways at the East Chamber.

Sandao was standing inside the house, looking at her through the window and smiling, deliberately.

I haven't seen her for a few days, and Sandao has lost a lot of weight, and there seems to be a slight melancholy between her brows and eyes.

There was a sound of 'squeak', and the door of Mrs. Wu's room was opened.

"Liuju, Qiduo, what are you two doing?" Erlang asked with a dark face.

Qiduo hurriedly pulled Liuju to stand up straight, looked inside, and said with concern, "Second brother, we are worried that our third uncle will beat Sanniang, so we want to persuade him. Since Sanniang is fine, let's go first ah."

After speaking, without waiting for Erlang's reaction, the two sisters flew away like butterflies.

Liuju glared at Sandao bitterly.

Sandao sneered, and slammed the window shut with a bang.

"Qi Duo, Qi Duo!" Tan Dejin ran out from the upper room, shouting hurriedly while running, his face full of panic.

Qiduo and Liuju greeted them, and Qiduo hurriedly asked, "Father, what's the matter?"

"Grandma is ill, and she is about to pass out from the pain. Let's invite Mrs. Shen to have a look." Tan Dejin said anxiously.

Qiduo rolled her eyes, and quickly remembered what Zheng Wanru had said to her, her heart was relieved, and her anxious heart calmed down.

"Father, auntie is still in town, and she won't be back until tomorrow. But auntie told me that if grandma is in severe pain these two days, don't worry, it's a sign that she's about to recover." Qiduo said in her mouth After saying that, the person has already walked quickly to the upper room.

Tan Dejin scratched his head, a little confused about the meaning of Qiduo's words, but he also followed behind.

Mrs. Zhao had been carried into the room by Tan Dejin and Tan Deyin, and she was put on the bed. Her face was pale and bloodless, and her face was covered with beads of sweat. She was rolling vigorously on the bed, and her wailing became weaker and weaker.

Everyone looked helpless.

Yang is complaining, "Mother has been doing well these days, she must have been injured by Sanniang just now, Sanniang is really rebellious, it's too vicious to dare to be so cruel to Mother."

"Daughter-in-law beats mother-in-law, not to mention in our Tan family, even in our Tan family village, this is the first time." Tan Deyin thumped the table angrily.

Seeing Qiduo and Tan Dejin coming in, but not seeing Zheng Wanru, Mr. Tan became anxious, "Qiduo, where is Mrs. Shen?"

"Auntie is still in town." Qiduo answered simply, rolled up her sleeves and walked to the bed.

"Ah, what should I do? Your grandma is in pain." Old Man Tan stomped his feet anxiously.

Qiduo hurriedly comforted, "Master, don't worry, my aunt told me two days ago that it's normal for grandma to be in pain like this, and she taught me how to deal with it. When grandma's pain passes, she will be sick within two days. It's all good, and I don't need to take medicine anymore."

"Ah, is it true or not?" Mr. Tan was a little in disbelief.

But Tan Dejin is looking forward to it.

Yang Shi glanced at Tan Deyin, and he shook his head lightly, signaling her not to worry.

Qiduo walked to the bed, saw Mrs. Zhao rolling around on it, unable to calm down, and said to Mr. Tan, "Grandpa, let grandma lie on her back."

"Boss and second, quickly hold your mother down." Mr. Tan hurriedly said, now he has no choice but to trust Qiduo.

Moreover, Qiduo's confident and calm expression made him inexplicably at ease, and he was willing to believe it.

Tan Dejin and Tan Deyin stepped forward, one pressed his shoulders, the other pressed his legs, and laid Zhao on his back.

"Ah yo, it hurts so much, let me go." Zhao shouted.

Perhaps because of the pain, his tone was weak and weak, and he was no longer as fierce as before.

Qiduo got on the step in front of the bed, lifted up Zhao's long coat, and exposed her abdomen, which swelled like a ball.

She pursed her lips tightly, and according to what Zheng Wanru said, she pressed her hands on Zhao's abdomen through the shirt and rubbed it gently.

"Get out, get out!" Mrs. Zhao raised her hand to push Qi Duo, refusing to let her massage.

Qiduo looked at Zhao's eyes that were bruised and swollen by Wu's beating, the corners of her eyes twitched, wanting to laugh.

But Mrs. Zhao's actions made her irritated, and she said coldly, "Grandma, your body is your own. If you really don't want to recover from your illness, then I will go as you wish."

"Old woman, please be quiet, otherwise, we won't care about you." Mr. Tan also scolded dissatisfiedly.

I don't know whose words worked, anyway, Mrs. Zhao raised her hand and slowly lowered it, only calling out, but not adding to the chaos.

Qi Duo's strength gradually increased.

Zhao Shi didn't say anything, but she knew very well in her heart that after Qiduo pressed her abdomen like this, she felt warm and comfortable in her stomach, and the pain also eased quite a bit.

I can't help but feel less resistance to Qiduo.

Qiduo was tired from pressing, so he took a break.

Repeatedly like this, about half an hour later, Zhao suddenly felt a pain in her abdomen, so she hurriedly said it for convenience.

Qiduo was overjoyed and asked Tan Dejin to help Mrs. Zhao up.

"Er Niang, help grandma go quickly." Qi Duo looked at Yang Shi and said with a smile.

Mrs. Yang frowned slightly in disgust, but in front of Mrs. Zhao and Mr. Tan, it was difficult to refuse, so she said, "Qiduo, let's go together."

Qiduo didn't refuse, and together with Yang Shi, helped Zhao Shi out.

After going to the toilet several times like this, Zhao's ball-like stomach miraculously disappeared. She only felt comfortable all over her body and her limbs were light. She hadn't felt this way for a long time.

"Grandma, do you feel better?" Qiduo asked.

Mrs. Zhao didn't lie this time, and nodded with a smile, "It's much more comfortable. I didn't expect you to be so stupid. Mrs. Shen taught you, you still remember. Mrs. Shen is really amazing, knowing that I will suddenly It hurts so much, if you press it a few times, the stomach will disappear."

This was the first time she spoke to Qiduo in such a peaceful and kind tone.

This is what elders should look like.

Qiduo smiled and said, "Grandma, it's really nice of you to look like this."

Mrs. Zhao was stunned, and Qiduo said again, "Grandma, you should take a good rest. Your aunt said that your stomach has disappeared at this time. But a few days ago, your body was very weak. You should not sit for a long time and be tired. You need to rest for a few days. When my aunt comes back tomorrow, I'll ask her to come and check your pulse, so I'll go back first."

Then I lifted the curtain and went out. I was very tired and wanted to take a hot bath to rest.

Mr. Tan waited for everyone in the house to leave, and said to Mrs. Zhao, "Old woman, treat Qiduo better in the future. She picked up your illness. Without her, you don't know what would happen now. .”

Zhao shi was silent for a long while and then curled her lips, "If the boss had sent her away, I would have recovered."

Mr. Tan glared at her, "You are still so confused."

"But that's what Deyin said at the beginning." Zhao argued.

"How can he be accurate every time, if he is really accurate, what happened to Sandao last time would not have happened." Mr. Tan said in a low voice.

He now has great distrust of Tan Deyin's fortune-telling ability.

Of course, this kind of doubt can only be said behind the scenes, only in front of Zhao Shi, and other than that, he would never say such things to anyone else.

Mrs. Zhao sighed lightly and waved her hands, "Forget it, that's right, what about Erxia's marriage? You should hurry up and find a chance to talk to the boss."

"Don't worry about it, take care of your body completely. Arranging marriage affairs is a tiring job, and you will be busy enough then." Mr. Tan waved his hand.

Mrs. Zhao nodded, "Sure, I'll sleep first, and I'll take care of that little bitch Wu Qiulian tomorrow."

Mr. Tan shook his head and sighed, none of them were fuel-efficient lamps.

Early the next morning, Qiduo and Tan Dejin came to visit Mrs. Zhao again.

After a night of rest, Zhao's complexion improved a lot, and all the sickness on his body disappeared.

"Mother, I'll take Qiduo and Liuju to cut firewood, and when Mrs. Shen comes back, I'll invite her to show you." Tan Dejin said.

Mrs. Zhao nodded, "Hey, let's go."

It was a rare time that he didn't show bad face to his eldest son.

Tan Dejin was also very happy, and walked to Jigong Mountain with Qiduo and Liuju.

Chopping firewood is still a smoke screen. This time, Qiduo is not going to dig bamboo shoots, but to fish clams.

Qiduo weighed what Uncle Nian said in his heart, Han and Lin wanted to find him, this might be a big deal, if it can be done, it can make a lot of money.

Of course, it doesn't matter if it doesn't work, as long as Yuekelai can make the clams famous, they won't have to worry about being sold. At that time, they don't have to go to the door to ask someone to sell things, it should be someone else who comes to the door to beg themselves to buy.

However, before the family was separated, she didn't really want such a situation to happen.

When she thinks of separating the family, she worries, last time Grandpa Ming moved her mind about separating the family, why suddenly there is no movement, it seems that there is another fire to be made, and it must be a raging fire.

On the Jigong Mountain, Qiduo and Liuju put on gloves and helped Tan Dejin chop firewood. Cutting firewood was not only tiring, but also hurt his hands.

In this era, there are no gloves specially used for working. Qiduo has already said what it looks like, and asked Xu and Erxia to make three pairs according to the size of their hands. Tan Dejin, Qiduo and Liuju each have a pair .

Although there is no stretchy fabric, Xu and Erxia's needlework is very delicate, and the gloves they sew fit the hand very well, and they work very neatly.

Tan Dejin looked at the gray cotton glove in his hand, smiled and shook his head, "Duo, you are smart and can think of ideas. With this thing, you won't be afraid of being stabbed in the hand."

Liuju smiled and squeezed Qiduo's face, "Yes, I didn't expect Shaduo to become smarter now, hehe."

"You are stupid." Qiduo refuted with a smile.

The two sisters were teasing while working.

Listening to the jokes of his two daughters, Tan Dejin waved the sickle more vigorously.

After chopping firewood, Tan Dejin immediately took Qiduo and Liuju to catch clams.

The three of them worked hard for nearly two hours, and they caught more than 100 catties. They also caught some snails by the way. Seeing that it was getting late, Qiduo stopped.

When Qiduo and Tan Dejin arrived at Yueke, Uncle Nian had already stood at the door looking forward to it.

"Ah, Miss Seven, you're finally here, I thought you wouldn't be here today." Uncle Nian trotted up to greet her with a big smile on his face.

Qiduo squinted her eyes and smiled, "Uncle Nian, these things didn't fall from the sky, we had to work hard to find them. We were busy all afternoon yesterday, and then another morning. It took five or six hours to get these things." .”

Tan Dejin had already carried the firewood down, revealing the river clams underneath.

Uncle Nian saw quite a few with his own eyes, and was very happy, "Okay, okay, Seventh Miss has worked hard. Brother, please go to check with Grid, and I will take Seventh Miss to see my boss."

Qiduo smiled and said to Tan Dejin, "Father, you go first, come to me when you're done."

"Hey, good." Tan Dejin nodded and left.

Uncle Nian took Qiduo to the study to wait for Han and Lin. Before the two of them sat down, Han and Lin also hurried in. Uncle Nian asked the boy to invite him.
