The Dog King of Siheyuan Tears and Rebirth
Chapter 103 The Medicine is Bitter, but the Heart is Even More Bitter
Because the birth went smoothly and without any problems, Lou Xiao'e was discharged from the hospital and went to the Lou family that afternoon.
When they arrived at the Lou family, Lou Tan said, "Zhu Zi, don't rush to take Xiao'e back, at least not before the New Year. There's no one at home to take care of her, so don't let Xiao'e get sick again. Got it?"
"Haha, Mom, don't worry, let's wait until he's fully recovered. I guess it will be almost before the New Year! There are still several months left," He Yuzhu agreed.
"Mom, it's been almost two months since I started nursing my baby. I have to go back early. How can I stay at my parents' house and not go home? I really miss home!" said Lou Xiao'e.
"Look, look, I didn't believe people who said girls were extroverts! Look at you now? If I didn't feel sorry for you, I wouldn't want to serve you! Eat well and take good care of yourself, then get out of here soon!" Lou Tan said dissatisfiedly.
"Mom..." Lou Xiao'e said coquettishly.
……
The next day at noon, after He Yuzhu prepared lunch for Lou Xiao'e, he went to the street. He wanted to take advantage of the holiday to buy some potatoes and cabbages from his home, as it happened to be the time when these things were on the market in large quantities.
When he came to the street, He Yuzhu saw cabbage sales points everywhere. In front of the sales points, people lined up in long queues with tickets and money in their hands. He Yuzhu knew that everyone was preparing vegetables for the family for the winter. Even buying cabbage at this time was a legitimate reason for workers to ask for leave, and it was also a good opportunity for a son-in-law to show his courtesy to his mother-in-law's family.
Soon, He Yuzhu also joined the team. After a long time, it was finally his turn. After paying the money and ticket, He Yuzhu picked a total of 900 kilograms of cabbage.
Then he hired two cart pullers, one to deliver the cabbages to Lou's house, and the other to buy other things with him.
In just one afternoon, He Yuzhu filled his car with shopping, including green onions, potatoes, carrots and radishes.
After buying these, He Yuzhu brought Wo Bo'er back to the courtyard. When they arrived at the door, He Yuzhu directed Wo Bo'er to move the vegetables inside.
At this time, everyone in the courtyard had already gone off work, finished their meals, and were chatting and bragging in the courtyard.
When people saw He Yuzhu coming back with a man carrying cabbages, they were very surprised, because He Yuzhu had not appeared for two whole months.
"Hey, Zhuzi, you're back! And you bought some vegetables for the winter?" Auntie Chen asked with a smile, "You're such an active cook. Can you tell me about the prices of vegetables this year?"
"Haha, Auntie, it's about the same as last year. You should hurry up too! If you're late, they will be the ones left over by others." He Yuzhu said.
"Of course, I'll go buy them for my two boys tomorrow. It's hard to say if it's too late," the aunt said with a smile, "By the way, Zhuzi, has your wife given birth yet? It should be about the right time, right?"
"Yes, she gave birth yesterday."
"Haha, it's good that the baby is born, it's good that the baby is born. Then when will your wife come back?" asked the aunt.
"Hey, there's no one to take care of you at home. Let's wait until you finish your confinement at my parents' house!" He Yuzhu said casually.
"Oh, that's right. Was it a son? Or a daughter?" An aunt finally asked the question that everyone wanted to ask.
In an instant, everyone around pricked up their ears, afraid of missing any news.
Especially Jia Zhang in the corner, she stopped sewing the shoe soles with the awl in her hand and listened carefully.
"Haha," He Yuzhu looked at the people around him and said, "It's good to have a daughter."
"Haha, that's right. Look, my family is full of boys. It's so annoying. I will just have to wait until the second one is a son." said an aunt.
"That's right, I like my daughter, how nice!" He Yuzhu said, "Auntie, you go and do your work, I'll go clean up the cellar, otherwise it will be bad if it breaks down."
"go Go!"
After He Yuzhu left, Jia Zhang immediately jumped up and walked happily towards the house. As soon as she entered the door, she shouted, "Huai Ru, Huai Ru, the He family's little extinct family is really a extinct family. They gave birth to a daughter. It's really God's will. May Old Jia bless you, Dongxu... Dongxu bless you, hey, anyway, Sha Zhu gave birth to a money-losing thing, hahahaha..."
"Is it really a daughter?" Qin Huairu asked.
"Of course it's true! That little bastard said it himself. He even pretended to love my daughter. I think he is just being stubborn. He was too embarrassed to even bring the child home. I think he has no shame..." Jia Zhang talked incessantly, and she looked happier than if she had picked up a hundred yuan.
Qin Huairu was also very happy after confirming that He Yuzhu gave birth to a daughter. It was good that she didn't give birth to a son, as there was still a chance.
While the Jia family was rejoicing, there was a man standing at the door, boiling medicine with a miserable look on his face.
That’s right, this person is Chen Caihong. After hearing the noise in the yard just now, the couple ran to the central courtyard to listen and learned that He Yuzhu had given birth to a daughter.
After hearing the news, although they were not greatly shocked, they returned home with mixed feelings.
Especially Chen Caihong, after returning home, she came out again to boil medicine on the coal stove at the door.
She wanted to cure her "illness" as soon as possible and get pregnant, even if it was a daughter, because as long as she had one, she would have a second one.
On the stove, a black casserole was bubbling with steam and emitting a disgusting smell.
Why did she say nausea? Ever since Xu Damao took her to see a Chinese doctor, the doctor told her that she had a yin deficiency constitution, which was why she couldn't get pregnant, so he prescribed her a lot of Chinese medicine.
From then on, Chinese medicine became her daily routine, and boiling and drinking medicine after get off work every day became her regular job.
It is said that good medicine tastes bitter but is good for the disease, and honest advice is unpleasant to the ears but is beneficial for action. However, for more than half a year, she almost vomited after drinking it, but there was still no movement in her stomach.
Although she didn't want to drink the bitter medicine, her heart was even more bitter than the unpalatable medicine. In order to cure the bitterness in her heart, she decisively accepted the bitterness in her mouth.
Because only she herself knew how much of a blow those rumors in the courtyard had caused her, especially from a few gossipers led by Jia Zhang, who saw that her family was living a better life than hers, so they began to gossip secretly.
What does it matter if life is good? It's still a fate that the family will be extinct. It's not like her family, where grandchildren run around the house.
For a while, Chen Caihong wanted to kill several children of the Jia family to vent her pain, but in the end she forced herself to endure it.
Soon, the medicine on the stove was almost cooked. Chen Caihong took a rag and then took the casserole to the kitchen.
After a skilled operation, a bowl of black bitter medicine soup appeared in front of her.
Thinking about the bitterness in her heart, Chen Caihong still endured the feeling of nausea, picked up two bowls and poured them out to cool the medicine.
After a while, feeling the warmth coming from the bowl, Chen Caihong made up her mind and drank it down with gulp.
"Nonsence!"
"It's too bitter. I hope this medicine can work!" Chen Caihong thought to herself.
After putting down the bowl, Chen Caihong went to find Damao to prepare for today's sports meeting.
