Abandoning my husband and son, I raised my six daughters to live happily

Meng Qingwu's chest rose and fell violently, and he asked with trembling lips.

"Why do you want to buy me shoes?"

"Because your shoes are broken."

Because the shoes are broken, I have to buy new shoes.

What a common and normal reason.

This answer obviously surprised Meng Qingwu. He was stunned for a moment and then smiled.

Every detail of the day he spent with Meng Suisui made him feel comfortable.

Just like now, Meng Suisui didn't tell him any truth, nor did she talk to him about chicken soup, nor did she offer any meaningless comfort.

Meng Suisui treated him mentally equally, making him feel like he was being treated like a normal person, but also gave him more care when he needed help in his life.

It was Meng Suisui who made him feel that he was not worthless and made him feel the long-lost respect.

Meng Qingwu's laughter was short, but it was still caught by Meng Suisui.

Surprise filled her eyes.

At this moment, my second uncle's voice sounded in my ears.

"Didn't you tell me to try? How can I try if you don't let me go?"

Meng Suisui knew that her second uncle was unwilling to ask for help, so she quickly put the shoe box next to her second uncle.

I saw the shoe on the left side of the second uncle. He raised his foot and put the shoe on.

I pinched my toes from the outside and walked around with a cane.

"No need to change. These shoes fit me perfectly. How much do they cost? I'll give them to you tomorrow."

"No money, I bought these shoes for you, my second uncle."

As soon as Meng Suisui finished speaking, she saw her second uncle immediately had a cold face, sat down on the kang and pretended to take off his shoes, saying so.

"If you don't want money, I won't wear it. You can take it to town and return it. I only killed two pigs for you this day, but I had three meals at your house and took away so much ribs and meat. You are now You want to give me shoes again, do you think that your second uncle, I, can no longer survive and need to rely on the help of your juniors to survive?"

I didn't expect my second uncle to be so angry suddenly, Meng Suisui said quickly.

"Second uncle, I have no intention of helping you. I think it is my duty to honor my elders. I remember when I was young, although you did not go home often, you would bring new clothes for us children every time you came back. New shoes, and White Rabbit toffees, I believe you bought us things just like me, out of love, not relief."

The second uncle's expression softened a little and he said angrily.

"You are the only one who has sharp teeth and a sharp tongue, and you always talk in the same way."

Meng Suisui got an advantage and behaved, and said playfully, "Isn't this just casual?"

She made Meng Qingwu angry, but he still insisted on giving money and wanted to pay for the shoes himself.

The second uncle has nothing to spend money on over the years, so he must still have some savings.

Seeing that her second uncle insisted, Meng Suisui had no choice but to agree.

If she had known that her second uncle would have to spend his own money, she would not have allowed Liu Zhaodi to buy such expensive shoes.

She rolled her eyes and told a white lie.

"Second uncle, these shoes are off-size and on sale. I bought them for five yuan a pair."

"Yes." Meng Qingwu responded and said he understood. His eyes stayed on the old shoe.

After a while, Meng Qingwu stood up on crutches. After walking a few steps, he suddenly stopped and turned his back to Meng Suisui.

"Throw away the old shoes and the ones I can't use anymore."

Meng Suisui was thoughtful and understood her second uncle's thoughts instantly.

Leave the past behind and embrace a new life.

The second uncle began to accept the reality of having only one leg left.

She said in a hearty voice, "Okay, good night, second uncle. I'll wait for you to have breakfast at home tomorrow morning."

The second uncle paused, continued to carry the pork and left.

Even though he has been away from the army for many years, even though he has lost both legs, his back is still as straight as a loose ball when he walks.

The second uncle was in a completely different state when he left and when he came in the morning.

Meng Suisui noticed the change in her second uncle and smiled from the bottom of her heart.

There are so many miserable people in this world, it would be great if you can help them within your ability.

Giving roses to others has lingering fragrance, and helping others can bring her positive emotional feedback. That is the second thing that makes her happy besides making money.

Meng Yufan gave the children a holiday today. This was the first holiday since he started making up classes.

It was a rare opportunity for the children to relax, Meng Suisui said righteously with a wave of her hand.

"Leave the lard cooking to me later. You can do whatever you want tonight. You can relax."

I originally thought that the children would be happy if they had time to relax and do their own thing, but unexpectedly, the daughters didn’t move at all.

"I'm not tired, I'm with my mother."

"I want it too, I like working with my mother."

"We have a big family, so we can work faster together."

"When I'm with my mother, I'm happy no matter what I do."

Meng Suisui was very moved after hearing this and felt that the children were too sensible.

The women sincerely wanted to help her share the burden, and Meng Suisui didn't want to let down her daughters, so she agreed.

It is still division of labor and cooperation.

The fifth and sixth children cleaned the meat to be boiled, Meng Suisui separated the fat meat from the skin, the eldest brother and the second child cut the fat meat into small pieces, the fourth child processed the pig offal, and the third child chose to hold firewood to light a fire.

There were many people working quickly, and it didn't take long for the pork suet and fat to be put into the pot. Meng Suisui put the pork liver, lungs, kidneys and pig joints cut up by Lao San into the pot and fried them together.

The two pots were boiling together, and Meng Suisui and Lao San were each watching a stove.

All she had to do now was keep an eye on the fire. Meng Suisui asked her dead daughters to go back and rest.

The daughters still didn't move and said they wanted to stay with her.

It's a good thing that her daughters like to be close to her, Meng Suisui suggested.

"Then let me tell you a story."

As soon as these words came out, the daughters' eyes lit up.

"Mom, can you tell stories?"

"Okay, okay, I want to hear my mother tell a story."

Meng Suisui asked: "What type of story do you want to hear?"

After a short silence, the second child smiled bitterly and said.

"Mom, we haven't heard stories before, so we don't know what types they are. We just listen to what mom tells us."

Daughters were not favored before, and even if the original person could tell stories, he might not tell them to his daughters.

Meng Suisui felt sorry for her daughters and said softly.

"It doesn't matter. From now on, Mom will tell you stories. Our country has a rich cultural heritage and there are many good stories from ancient times to the present. When you can recognize more words, Mom will sell story books to you."

The youngest daughter is only nine years old, so she may not understand stories about love, and ghost stories are too scary.

Meng Suisui suddenly thought of something, clapped her hands and said.

"Then let me tell you the story of Hua Mulan, okay?"

"it is good."

"In ancient times, there was a girl named Hua Mulan in Shangyi Village, Yan'an Prefecture, Shaanxi Province. She learned martial arts from her father Hua Hu since she was a child..."

When she told stories, her daughters listened attentively.

The mood changes with the story, feeling tense and relieved, gnashing teeth when angry, and cheering when happy.

After finishing speaking, the daughters felt that they still had something to say and started discussing intensely.

The children had questions and emotions, which showed that they listened.

Meng Suisui asked in a guiding light, "After listening to this story, what do you think?"

The boss said, "Hua Mulan is very filial. She chose to cross-dress and join the army to protect her father. After returning from victory, she originally had better choices, but she just wanted a fast horse to return home to accompany her relatives."

Meng Suisui nodded and said, "What the boss said is very good. Does anyone else have any other thoughts?"

The second child said, "If you want to accomplish something, you must not be afraid of difficulties, study hard, and persevere."

Lao Wu said, "Hua Mulan is very brave."

Lao Liu said, "Beautiful girls can also achieve a great career."

The third child suddenly stood up excitedly, "Mom, I understand."

Meng Suisui raised her chin gently, "Well, you tell me."

The third child said, "Women also have the ability to go into battle to kill enemies and serve the country. In ancient times, the status of girls was much lower than it is now. Hua Mulan can change other people's opinions of her with her own efforts, so I will work hard in the future. I want to prove that I am no worse than a boy. I am a girl and I can kill pigs and drive a horse like a man!

Meng Suisui's smile became more and more endearing, and when the third child finished speaking, she continued.

"You are all right. As long as you are strong enough, you will be able to break through the shackles of secularity and feudalism and gain recognition."

"As long as we have Hua Mulan's courage and unyielding spirit, each of us can break into the blue sky and help others in our own way. Women are no worse than men."

The daughters were all excited to hear this.

Not only listened to the story, but also learned something.

Meng Suisui educates invisibly. She likes to infiltrate some principles and interpersonal skills into her daughters in daily interactions, so that they can grow up unconsciously.

Feeling that the oil was almost done, Meng Suisui opened the lid of the pot, and the children immediately came over after smelling the aroma.

"Wow, it smells so good."

Meng Suisui put the pig offal on a plate, and her daughters couldn't wait to reach out and grab it.

She subconsciously stretched out her hand to stop him.

"Little greedy cat, it's very hot when it comes out of the pan. Be careful. Go grab some chopsticks and eat it. Remember to blow it to cool it before eating."

The children loved the gentle mother so much that they went to get the chopsticks with obedient expressions.

Meng Suisui asked the eldest son to get some salt, cumin, and chili noodles for the children to dip into the seasonings.

The whole family gathered around the stove and couldn't wait to taste the chopsticks after they arrived.

"too delicious."

"Crispy, crunchy and fragrant."

“I never thought pig offal could be made so delicious.”

"I like it so much, mother. From now on, all the pigs in our family can do this, okay?"

The children ate happily, and Meng Suisui smiled fondly on the side.

On this day, Meng Suisui and the children worked together until very late, but everyone was very happy and bubbling with happiness.

At the same time, a group of villagers in Huanxi Village took advantage of the darkness and left the village by a small road.

They didn't bring any lighting equipment and blended quietly into the darkness.
