After becoming a widow, I became the mother of seven children

At about four or five o'clock in the afternoon, Li Xiangping and the others had not returned yet. Yuan Huiniang said anxiously: "Mom, my husband and the others usually go out with you and come back a long time ago. Why are they still not back at this time today?"

Yan Qingqing was also worried. After all, it was the first time for the three children to go out to do business on their own, but Yan Qingqing had to comfort Yuan Huiniang and said: "Maybe something has delayed it, let's wait a little longer.

The three of them have grown up and should be able to handle things even if they encounter them. "

Yuan Huiniang felt more at ease after hearing Yan Qingqing's words, and it was not until dark at night that Li Xiangping and the other three came back.

But the expressions of the three of them were not very good, and even Li Xiangjian, who had always been lively, looked serious. Yan Qingqing asked: "What's wrong? But what happened?"

Only then did Li Xiangping realize that he was afraid that the expressions of the three of him might have frightened Yan Qingqing, so he replied: "Mom, we are fine. It was Li Erdan and his wife who were taken away by the government."

Yan Qingqing pondered for a while and asked: "But because someone ate their food and got upset?"

Li Xiangping asked in surprise: "Mom, how did you know?"

Yan Qingqing snorted and replied: "The weather is hot now, and food can easily spoil, especially meat.

Li Erdan and his wife are also greedy for petty gains. On the one hand, the things they buy are not fresh. On the other hand, if the pig sewage is not treated well, it will also be bad for the stomach. "

Li Xiangping then said: "That's it. I ate their pig's feces yesterday and suffered vomiting and diarrhea at night. I called the doctor and said it was food poisoning."

The government found out that those who were poisoned were all because they ate pig waste yesterday.

So early in the morning the government sent someone to wait at the pier.

Fortunately, Mr. Liu testified for us that those who were poisoned were all caused by eating pig waste from Li Erdan's house. The food we sell is good.

The county magistrate beat Li Erdan thirty times and made them pay for everyone's medical treatment. He only let them go home after three days. "

Yan Qingqing sighed and said: "This is the reason why I wanted one pair even though we could buy two pairs at once.

A family like ours cannot withstand any setbacks, so you all must remember to be cautious when you are unable to deal with the aftermath. "

Li Xiangping and others nodded vigorously when they heard this, especially Li Xiangan, who felt even more ashamed. If it wasn't for his mother, he might have made a mistake.

Li Erdan's matter has no impact on Yan Qingqing. Her life is her own. She doesn't take the initiative to harm others, but don't imagine that she can sympathize with those who are disadvantageous to her.

The next day, Li Xiangping and the others still went to the pier to sell food. Yan Qingqing was wondering when to go to the city to find a market for the bows made by Yuan Huiniang and the others.

Suddenly the village chief's voice came from the door: "Is Xiang Pingniang at home?"

When Yan Qingqing saw that Li Kaishan was coming, he quickly stood up to greet him and said, "Uncle village chief, why are you here? Come and sit in the yard."

It wasn't that Yan Qingqing insisted that Li Kaishan sit in the courtyard, but that there was really no room in their house and it was inappropriate to go to anyone's room.

Li Kaishan didn't care about this.

Seeing that Li Kaishan had really sat down, Yan Qingqing knew that something must be wrong with him, so she turned to Li Yueniang and said, "Yue Niang, go and pour a bowl of sugar water for your village chief grandpa."

Li Yueniang quickly responded, put down her work and went to pour sugar water for the village chief.

Li Kaishan waved his hand and said: "The sugar water is such a precious thing, keep it for the guests, don't let Yueniang be busy."

Sugar and salt are both expensive in this day and age. If a rural family can treat themselves to sugar water, it will be a great favor to the guests.

Yan Qingqing smiled and said: "Uncle the village chief has helped our family so much, so drinking a bowl of sugar water is not what we should do."

Li Kaishan stopped refusing and said straight to the point: "Actually, I shouldn't have come to see you, but Erdan mother-in-law came to me for help. I have to come to you to ask about the situation."

After hearing this, Yan Qingqing knew for sure that Li Kaishan was here because of Li Erdan's matter.

Seeing that Yan Qingqing didn't speak, Li Kaishan continued to speak: "I know that Li Erdan followed you secretly to sell brine.

But we are from the same village after all. If the two of them commit an offense, the people in our village will be disgraced. "

After hearing this, Yan Qingqing replied calmly: "Uncle village chief, Dalang and the others came back yesterday and told me about this matter. Although no one was killed, many people suffered from vomiting and diarrhea. The doctor said it was food poisoning.

The county magistrate just slapped him thirty times and asked them to pay for the medical expenses. I don't think it was a heavy punishment. "

Li Kaishan breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this and said: "That's good, just pay some money to settle the matter, that's what it should be.

I will go back and tell Li Erdan's parents to prepare money and get the people out first. "

After seeing off the village chief, Yan Qingqing took some time off and suddenly felt a little bored.

In these ancient days, every day was busy and fulfilling, and I didn’t know what to do when I was free.

Suddenly Li Xiangkang ran in like a gust of wind.

Seeing Yan Qingqing excitedly saying, "Mom, my uncle and grandma are here!"

Yan Qingqing was suddenly startled, and then he remembered that the original owner also had his parents and three brothers. It's just that the original owner was afraid of her mother-in-law and hadn't been with her mother-in-law for several years.

Normally, Li Xiangkang should not know Mrs. Yan. Yan Qingqing asked in surprise: "How do you know that it belongs to your grandma and uncle?"

Li Xiangkang smiled and said, "I met them when I was a child. Mom, have you forgotten?"

Only then did Yan Qingqing remember that the old lady of the Yan family did come to see them four years ago, but because she was afraid that old lady Li would be dissatisfied, she sat for a while and left.

But Li Xiangkang was only two years old at that time. Does this child have such a good memory?

Just when Yan Qingqing felt incredible, an old lady with white hair and a man in his forties walked in the door.

Both of them were wearing half-worn clothes with very few patches. At first glance, he looked carefully dressed.

When the old lady saw Yan Qingqing, her tears fell down. Yan Qingqing quickly stepped forward and shouted: "Mother"!

Mrs. Yan's tears fell even more fiercely, and she pulled Yan Qingqing and choked with sobs: "My poor child, why don't you let someone tell you when such a big thing happened at home? You still have parents and brother.

We can all support you. It's all your fault that your mother taught you to be so virtuous. How will you live in the future? "

Yan Qingqing felt uncomfortable when she saw Old Mrs. Yan crying with snot and tears. Although she was not the original owner, she could feel Old Mrs. Yan's love for the original owner.

The middle-aged man on the side saw Mrs. Yan like this and quickly comforted her: "Mom, don't be like this. We are here to comfort my sister. Doesn't this make her more sad?"

The person who spoke was Yan Qingqing's eldest brother, Yan Qingshi.

Yan Qingshi has loved Yan Qingqing since he was a child, and always leaves any good things to her.

Yan Qingqing smiled at Yan Qingshi, and then called "big brother" sincerely.

Yan Qingshi exclaimed, then turned around and wiped his tears while no one was paying attention.
