Rebirth of the farmer's daughter-in-law

Chapter 11

"Yeah." She quickly agreed, "It's pitch black in the cold weather, what are you doing out here? How's uncle?"

"Brother hasn't woken up all this time, his body is terribly hot, and he keeps talking nonsense." Sanchun opened the courtyard door, clutching her skirt tightly, not knowing whether it was fear or cold, and his teeth chattered a little when he spoke.

Sanchun's heart stopped when he heard this, and he put his arms around his head and turned around, "It's okay, I'll get the medicine back, uncle will be fine!"

"Great!" After all, Sanchun was a child, only knowing how to be happy, but never thought to ask where the money for the medicine came from, and why Meng Duo came back from the town so quickly.

Meng Duo went into the room to see Meng Da, and then quickly lit a fire to boil the medicine.Fortunately, Meng Da was still able to drink the medicine. After drinking a big bowl of it, he slept much more soundly.

"You didn't eat tonight, did you?" Meng Duo had time to care about his uncle and sister-in-law, "I'll cook, you wait."

"I boiled some rice soup, but my sister couldn't eat it, so it was still in the pot." Sanchun replied.

After all, the children of poor families are in charge of the house early, and Sanchun is young, so he can help with the work inside and outside the house.He saw that his eldest brother was sick and unconscious, and his second sister-in-law went out to find a way, so he naturally had to take good care of his younger sister.

Meng Duo sighed slightly after hearing this, and then said: "If you can't eat, you have to eat, or else we will throw it down again when the uncle is well, and the family has no money to buy medicine." After finishing speaking, he went to heat up the rice.

She coaxed her brother-in-law and sister-in-law to eat, and then put them to sleep, while she sat on the edge of the kang and watched over.

After an unknown amount of time, she fell asleep in a daze.Sanchun, who was lying on the kang, opened her eyes, got up and put the quilt on her body, and stretched out her hand to touch Meng Da's forehead.

Meng Da woke up from his drowsiness and saw Meng Duo sleeping on the edge of the kang, and San Chun sitting next to him, dozing off with his little head tilted to one side.Apparently they didn't sleep well last night to take care of themselves who were sick, but Si Ya, who was not sensible, lay down on the bed and slept soundly.

He stretched out his hand to wake Meng Duo up, but when he reached the top of her head, he stopped abruptly, turned around and pushed Sanchun.

"Brother! You're awake." Sanchun rubbed her eyes and exclaimed, with a smile on her face.

Meng Duo was awakened by his voice, seeing Meng Da's eyes clear and happy, "Uncle, how do you feel?"

Meng Da sat up, although he was not dizzy, but his body was not as strong as usual.

"I'm going to make porridge right now, and then make medicine..."

"Medicine?" Meng Da was taken aback, and looked at her questioningly.

Forehead.She hurriedly staggered her eyes, turned around and went out.

Originally, I promised my uncle to send back the copper coins left by Douhua, but now the money is about the same.One is that there is a new famine in the family, and the other is that the uncle will definitely blame himself for self-assessment, even spending the money on medicines, and enduring it when he doesn't want to die.

She cooked the porridge, sent Sanchun to bring it in, and squatted outside to boil medicine, her ears perked up to listen to the movement inside the house.

Meng Da seemed to be coughing a few times, but didn't hear the sound of speaking.

"Sanchun, come out and get the medicine." She yelled guiltyly, not daring to go into the house.

After a while, Sanchun came out, "Brother asked my second sister-in-law to come in."

Meng Duo bit his lip, knowing that he could avoid it for a while but not for the rest of his life, so he hesitated for a while before entering the house.

"How many of the sixty copper coins are left?" Meng Da put down the medicine bowl and asked with a sigh.

After hearing this, Meng Duo hurriedly took out the remaining copper coins, and seeing the countless copper coins, she glanced at Meng Da again guiltily.

"Uncle..."

Meng Duo rubbed his hands helplessly, his face was full of panic and uneasiness, he was sleepy and tired after running around for half a night last night, his face was haggard, his face was flushed from the cold just now when he was boiling medicine outside.

Seeing Meng Da, how could he say a word of blame and let her sleep on the kang.

In broad daylight, she and her uncle were lying on the same kang, how decent was that?Meng Duo only said that he was not sleepy, let him rest and went out.

The firewood hanging outside the firewood room was almost dry, she started to hug it inside, and when she came out, she saw Sanchun taking out the broken straw curtains that were not used in previous years and beating them.

After a while, Sanchun took the hammer and went in again.After a while, there was clanging in the room.

She went in curiously and saw a straw curtain dividing the kang into two halves, Siya was happily moving the quilt to the side of the straw curtain.

"Second sister-in-law, elder brother said, we will live here for both of us."

Seeing her coming in, Meng Da said, "Go and close the courtyard door, and we'll all get a good night's sleep today."

After a while, all four members of the family were lying on the kang.On one side of the curtain is Meng Da with Sanchun, and on the other side is Meng Duo with Siya.

"Brother and sister, I don't mean to complain about you, but I feel a little uncomfortable." After a long time, Meng Da said quietly, "The village is so far from the town, and you, a weak woman, came back overnight. What if something happens to you? ? Don’t do such dangerous things in the future, as long as our family members are doing well. But in the end, I’m still useless, let you..."

"Uncle, I didn't think carefully about this matter. The family situation was not good at first, and now there is a famine. I will go and talk to Douhua, and I will return it to her later." Douhua did not fall asleep. It was last night.It was the first time in her life that she walked alone at night, the first time she encountered such a terrifying thing, and the first time she rode a horse...

She felt that she was in a dream. The coffin, the man, the Taoist priest, and the psychic horse all felt erratic and unreal no matter how she thought about it.

"Let me talk about it." Meng Da was already full of guilt and annoyance, and secretly scolded himself as a waste in his heart, and let a little girl like Meng Duo rush forward.Going to chat with Dou Hua right now, he can't let Meng Duo go anymore.

Seeing the increasingly difficult life at home, Meng Da was distraught.But he also knows that it is better to take care of his body as soon as possible and find a way to make money.

After a while, there were several people breathing in different depths in the room.No one came to Meng's house, they slept until the afternoon, and several of them woke up from hunger.

Siya folded the quilt, Sanchun helped Meng Duo light the fire, and Meng Da strolled back and forth in the yard.If there is no famine in the family, there is enough food in the rice jar, and the uncle buys some game every now and then to satisfy his hunger, how happy would be such a life.While thinking about it, Meng Duo put rice into the pot, hesitated for a moment and put a small handful back into the rice pot.

As soon as she turned around, she saw Douhua looking at the gate of the courtyard with a basin of clothes, and saw that she turned around to leave instead.

"Douhua?" She called out softly, but Douhua had no choice but to stop.

"I'm fine...Brother Meng is healed?" Douhua asked with a quick glance at Meng Da.

"How do you know uncle is sick?"

"Um...I see something wrong with Brother Meng's face..." Douhua was startled, and then blushed back.Yesterday she saw Meng Da coming home from a distance, walking with his feet fluttering, and he felt uncomfortable at first glance.Since yesterday, she wandered around Meng's house several times, feeling very anxious.
