Chapter 41 Xi Ming
Ruan hugged her youngest son and said, "I haven't bullied it. Today, with your second uncle here, they dare not bully it."
The whole family entered the house happily.
The twelve-year-old boy, pale face and eyes stretched out. After finally meeting his relatives, the boy smiled and said, "Dad, mother, sister, are you okay? Ayun and I have been worried, are you doing anything about grandma and uncle?"
The tone of concern was the same as that of Liu Ma Ayun.
Ruan Shi smiled, "We're fine, why are you up yet? Didn't you let you lie in bed for a few days?"
"My body has been much better." When Xi Ming's little brow frowned like two sea cucumbers, he was full of disgust that his body had dragged down his family.
Ruan Shi patted his hands and said softly, "You can't be careless. Doctor Wang's prescription last time will take another three days. When the weather is warmer, I will ask A Meng to accompany you to the yard to see the vegetables. This spring, Liu Ma Xin has grown a lot of vegetables, which has grown half a chopstick. In another three or five days, you can pick it and eat it."
He asked again, "I told my mother Liu to have a chicken soup in the afternoon. Have you drunk it?"
"I drank half a bowl." Xi Ming responded with a bitter face.
In recent years, every time he became ill, his mother would ask Liu Ma to stew chicken soup and drink it for ten or half a month. During the year, he would drink chicken soup for most of the day. Now he would feel disgusted when he smelled chicken soup, but he didn't dare to tell his mother that he didn't want to drink chicken soup.
He knew that my mother had put in a lot of effort for his body, and even asked someone to raise hundreds of chickens in the farm, just to let him eat more good food and help him regulate his body.
He can't ignore Ah Niang's painstaking efforts.
Even if he really couldn't drink the chicken soup, he would force himself to drink half a bowl.
In the evening, in addition to two plates of stir-fried vegetables on the Xi family table, there is also a plate of hand-pulled chicken and a pot of chicken soup tofu.
Every time he stewed chicken soup, Xi Ming was the first person to drink chicken soup, and the rest of the Xi family also had to eat and drink with him.
A chicken weighs five or six pounds. Xi Ming can eat it alone, so he can only drink a bowl of chicken soup. The Xi family lives a frugal life and cannot bear to waste it. If Xi Ming can't eat it, Liu's mother will reprocess it and make white-cut chicken, cold-scrambled chicken, braised chicken, etc., and serve it on the table and eat it together.
Chicken is a regular customer on the Xi family table and will appear once every few days.
But even if you eat it every day, the Xi family still eats it with relish.
Even Xi Ming chewed two pieces of chicken.
After dinner, Xi Tongfang took Xi Yun to the study room. After taking Xi Yun’s homework, Ruan Shi and Xi Feng sat and talked with Xi Ming for a while. It was not until Xi Ming looked tired that Ruan urged A Meng to help him into the house to rest.
Xi Feng returned to the house, took out the half-made table screen, and continued to embroider the flowers.
Vanilla tilted the oil lamp, and the dim room suddenly lit up a little. Vanilla said, "Miss, it's getting late, so it's better to embroider it tomorrow. I won't be able to do this job."
"Tomorrow and tomorrow, how many tomorrows are there."
Xi Feng doesn't like to be procrastinate, let alone she is not sleepy. She goes to bed so early and can't sleep. It's better to finish the table screen so that the goods can be delivered as soon as possible.
In the future, she does not plan to take embroidery and earn pocket money.
It is too slow to earn money by working as an embroiderer on one needle and thread. She has to find a way to earn more money. Her eldest brother is twelve, and in a few years, it will be time to decide on a wife, but his betrothal gift is not yet settled, and there are also younger brothers. The tuition fee and the annual pen, ink, paper and inkstone will cost nearly 100 taels of silver.
