80s Raising a Baby

Chapter 19 019: Chen Zhongwen Comes Back
After hearing this, Chen Laoer responded with aggrieved expression: "That's my mother, there are so many children, we can't even eat a few bites, so we still have the strength to work."

Mrs. Chen has been the family for half her life, and that allowed them to question themselves, and when they were about to get angry and curse, they heard Old Man Chen say: "Okay, don't talk about this matter, just follow what you said, divide the table into two tables, separate the adults from the children. .”

Seeing that old man Chen didn't listen to her and had to make decisions on her own, old lady Chen's face was livid, she turned her head and wanted to curse, but seeing the cold light flashing in old man Chen's eyes, she stopped talking again.

On the surface, this family is run by Mrs. Chen, but in reality, Mrs. Chen has the final say. Don't look at Mrs. Chen who is usually silent. If Mrs. Chen really annoys him, he will talk to Mrs. Do it, and it's the kind of dead hand.

After the agreement was made, everyone dispersed, because Ye Qian was going to take care of the children, she was responsible for cooking at home, cleaning the yard and feeding the pigs and chickens, while the others continued to work in the fields.

Because corn and peanuts are planted, seeds need to be sown, so all the children over 6 years old in the family went to the field, leaving a milk doll and Jingli. Jingyue is at home. Jingyue is the youngest daughter of Mrs. Chen. Li is the same age.

After Ye Qian went back to the house and finished feeding Jing Hui, she opened the doors and windows for ventilation, then called the two sisters to let them watch Jing Hui, while she went to tidy up the house.

First, I cleaned the dishes, then cleaned the kitchen, and then went to feed the pigs and chickens. Ye Qian took the weeds that Jingchun had cut and almost died of suffocation. There was a thick layer of chicken manure and pig manure inside. Nobody dealt with it.

In this day and age, manure is used as fertilizer, and I don't know how long they have been saving it, so Ye Qian hastily threw wild vegetables in and ran away. She wanted to help clean up, but the scene was too grand, and she was powerless .

After feeding them, Ye Qian cleaned the yard again. Fortunately, there are a few girls at home who can help with some work, so the yard is relatively clean.

After tidying up, Ye Qian had time to rest, and when she returned to the room, she saw Jingli and Jingyue lying beside the bed, extremely honest.

Speaking of which, the two sisters are also pitiful, because the original owner is patriarchal and ignores Jing Li's existence at all, and Jing Yue is even more pitiful than Jing Li. Aunt Chen's son who has always been thinking of her has suddenly become a daughter, so she doesn't like this little daughter very much. If you pretend not to see, you pretend not to see.

The clothes on the two sisters were rotten, and their hair was greasy, and no one helped to take care of it.

Ye Qian really couldn't stand it anymore, so she went to the kitchen and boiled a large pot of hot water, and washed the two sisters from head to toe, and the two sisters were a little satisfied after seeing how clean they were.

Having done so much work early in the morning after confinement, Ye Qian was a little exhausted, so she went back to the house, took a stool and hugged Jing Hui to bask in the sun in the yard.

It was the first time that Jingli and Jingyue felt being valued by others, and they gathered around Ye Qian without going out to play, basking in the sun with her.

At about 11 o'clock, a young man riding a bicycle suddenly rushed into the yard. He was about the same height as Chen Zhongwu, but thinner than him, and looked a little frail.

Seeing Ye Qian hugging the child in the yard basking in the sun, she bluntly shouted: "Sister-in-law, is there any water at home? I'm dying of thirst."

Only then did Ye Qian realize that this should be Chen Zhongwu's fourth brother, Chen Zhongwen.

"There is cold water in the main room, you can drink it directly." Ye Qian responded lightly.

Chen Zhongwen parked his bicycle in the yard, and immediately strode towards the house, drinking from a water bottle while going out, "Sister-in-law, is there any food at home?"

"I'm starving to death."

Ye Qian: "No, I've finished my morning meal, and I haven't cooked my lunch meal yet."

Chen Zhongwen pouted immediately when he heard this, and strode towards the old lady's room, presumably to go through the old lady's things, the old lady gave Chen Zhongwen the things Chen Zhongwu brought last time, this time Where is there to eat.

Chen Zhongwen rummaged around but couldn't find anything to eat, so he said to Ye Qian angrily when he left the house, "Third brother didn't bring anything back from his business trip this time."

His tone was like Ye Qian owed him, and Ye Qian replied angrily when she heard him being rude: "I didn't bring it."

Chen Zhongwen also felt her indifference, a glint of misery flashed in his eyes, and he went back to the room angrily.

Seeing him like that, Ye Qian simply couldn't see her and carried the child back to her room, while the two little girls were sent out to play by her. They should be carefree at this age, so there's no need to think so much.

An hour later, the old Chen's people came back one after another, all of them were sweating profusely, and they were very tired at first sight, especially Jing Cheng, not only was he sweating profusely, but he didn't even know where his shoes went .

"Mom, is there any water at home? I'm thirsty." Jing Cheng rushed into Ye Qian's room and shouted loudly.

After getting along during this period of time, Jing Cheng could also see that his mother had changed a lot, and she was no longer indifferent to them, so the relationship with Ye Qian became much more harmonious.

Ye Qian had just put Jing Hui to sleep, but when he yelled so loudly, the little milk baby shivered suddenly, Ye Qian gave Jing Cheng an angry look, "It's cool, put it on the table .”

Jing Cheng was not afraid of Ye Qian's white eyes at all, he smiled heartlessly, picked up the cold water on the table and drank it in big gulps, sipping the taste while drinking.

These days Ye Qian would give them cold water, and put a little bit of malted milk in the water, which was sweet.

"Where's your elder brother?"

Jing Cheng: "In the back, I'll call him." After speaking, he strode outside and dragged Jing Hong back after a while.

Jing Hong was obviously also very tired, his face was red.

Jing Cheng pulled Jing Hong to the table, looked at the bowl on the table and muttered in a low voice: "Try it quickly, there is sugar in it, it's sweet."

Jing Hong cast a glance at Jing Cheng, and in his expectant eyes, he slowly picked up the bowl and drank it in small sips. His mother would prepare cold water for them these days, and he was used to it.

Standing by the side, Jing Cheng watched his brother swallow subconsciously, and asked impatiently, "Brother, is it sweet?"

Jing Hong gave him a blank look, "Didn't you finish all your drinks?"

Jing Cheng smiled embarrassingly, "I drank it too fast, I didn't feel it carefully, can you?" Before he finished speaking, Jing Hong drank the remaining half of the bowl with a blank expression.

Jing Chengqi immediately darkened his face, and muttered in a low voice: "Stingy."

Jing Hong didn't seem to feel Jing Cheng's resentment at all, he calmly put down the bowl and strode outside, Jing Cheng looked at the bowl on the table distressedly, leaned up to Ye Qian, and asked in a low voice: "Mother, Can I still drink this sugar water in the afternoon?"

Ye Qian raised her head and looked at him with a smile from the corner of her eyes, "No, drinking too much will damage your teeth."

Jing Cheng: "I'm not afraid!"
