There is Room For Abandoned Women In the 1980s

Chapter 46 A bowl of sugar water

"Mom, I want you to go back quickly." Tie Qiu ran to the backyard to look for him. Mom, no matter how young the child is in the Zheng family, they are not used to it. Running errands and delivering messages is a light job.

"Tie Qiu, can I give you some sugar water?"

Zheng Xinyue saw the iron ball coming, and she didn't like drinking sugar water so she gave it to him.

"No, Nai said, we can't worry about my sister's things."

Tie Qiu was so frightened that he hid behind his mother and carefully peeked at Zheng Xinyue with his big black and white eyes, with a trace of grievance in his voice.

"The milk is not here, I won't tell her."

Zheng Xinyue saw the pitiful appearance of this child, and then thought about the only children who were favored by heaven in modern times. It was really incomparable.

Tie Qiu didn't dare to take the sugar water and looked up at him. Mom, Li Xiuqin was a little unsure. What does sister-in-law mean?

But one thing she knew was that if she really let her son drink this sugar water, her mother-in-law would scold her for three days and three nights.

"Xinyue, how can a child deserve to drink such a good thing? Drink it quickly! My sister-in-law has gone back to work."

Li Xiuqin seemed to be running away, dragging the iron ball away reluctantly.

Zheng Xinyue shook her head with a smile and put the sugar water on the stone outside the garden.

"Xinyue, your sister-in-law is so kind to you."

Chen Sili smiled and said to Zheng Xinyue, no wonder Xinyue praised her sister-in-law, she was really good.

"Yes! Sister-in-law is very good."

Zheng Xinyue smiled lightly, her sister-in-law had a quarrel with her eldest brother last night because of her!

But this is all an internal matter within the Zheng family, and there is no need to let outsiders know.

In rural areas, simple toilets are built by one's own family. As the saying goes, the fertilizer should not flow into other people's fields, but the excrement should stay in one's own home.

Most people just use corn poles to dig a hole around it, but diligent people will use adobe to build a one-meter-high wall. Both processes of going in and squatting down will be seen by people.

Zheng Dakui was a diligent and feudal person. He had two daughters-in-law at home, so he built a very high wall around the toilet and covered it with a lid, leaving only a small door for entry. The privacy was better than other homes.

Zheng Xinyue endured the smell and went to the toilet. When she returned to the house, she saw that the meal had been prepared and put on the table. The women and children were on a table on the ground, and the men set up a kang table on the kang.

There is a large basin on each table. In the basin is wild vegetable porridge cooked with green wild vegetables and cornmeal. There is also a plate of dark-colored pickle strips cut into long strips. There is one more plate of steamed buns on the men's table than on the women's table.

This is the case in most rural areas. Men are strong laborers and must ensure that they are well fed.

"Xinyue, come over and eat quickly."

Gao Guilan was already distributing food. Each daughter-in-law received a bowl of porridge and half a dark vegetable cake. The children could only drink porridge but not cakes. Everyone was used to it and sat silently waiting for Gao Guilan's instructions before they could use their chopsticks.

"I'll wash my hands and I'll be right back."

Zheng Xinyue agreed, scooped cold water from the vat, poured it into the basin, washed her hands, dried them and entered the house. What her mother gave her was a bowl of white noodle soup?

"Eat quickly! Mom has poached eggs for you!"

Gao Guilan put on a kind smile and put the pimple soup in front of her daughter. She was already used to her favoritism. Li Xiuqin and Li Xiuli didn't dare to raise their heads and ate their own meals in silence. It would be nice if they could share half of the pie.

The sister-in-law is a lucky star and the heart of her mother-in-law, they can't compare.

Zheng Xinyue took the bowl awkwardly, her mother always drank wild vegetable porridge, why should she eat white flour?

"Mom, I want to drink some wild vegetable porridge, but I don't want to eat this."

She pushed the pimple soup in front of her mother with a look of disgust, snatched the wild vegetable porridge that Gao Guilan had not had time to drink, and drank it with her head down.
