She gave birth to three daughters in a row, and was kicked out by her mother-in-law who favored boys

"Mom, but my sister is making trouble again? Give her to me, I will comfort her." Dahua woke up in a daze at this time, and seeing her mother holding Sanhua, she thought that Sanhua had woken up and was crying.

He instinctively stretched out his arm over the sleeping Erhua to pick up Sanhua.

When Gu Qingqing saw Dahua wake up, she quickly let Sanhua lean back against her chest and face Dahua. At the same time, she pointed at Dahua and said to Sanhua, "Sister, call me sister."

"Ah, sister!" After Sanhua shouted, she stretched out her arms and was about to find Dahua, calling out "Sister, sister, sister, hug me" back and forth in her little mouth.

Dahua, who was originally sleepy, was stunned for a long time. Just when Sanhua called "Ah Jie" again, she excitedly shouted "Ah".

However, she didn't scream out completely as she covered her mouth tightly with her hands. It was still dark outside and she was afraid that her scream would scare Erhua who was still sleeping and Sanhua who was still confused.

She immediately climbed out of the quilt, stepped over Erhua, and sat on the place where Sanhua originally slept.

Seeing that she was wearing only a single layer of clothing, Gu Qingqing pulled her quilt over Dahua's lower body.

"Sanhua, you finally learned how to call for help. Are you calling for mother? Look, the one holding you is our mother. Call for mother quickly so we can hear it." Dahua said as he raised his hand to attract her attention and turned to look at Gu Qingqing.

Seeing this, Gu Qingqing changed Sanhua's position again, letting her lie in her arms so that she could see herself and Dahua at the same time.

"Mother...Ah, sister!"

Seeing this, Dahua immediately corrected her and patted Gu Qingqing's arm and said, "This is mother, call her mother! Not sister."

"Mother, ah!"

"It's mother!"

"mother!"

"Yeah, yeah, Sanhua, you are so smart. Yes, call me mother."

"mother!"

Every time Sanhua shouted "Mom", Dahua excitedly coaxed her to shout out the next word.

The two adults teased Sanhua over and over again to ask her to call for help, until they saw that she was sleepy, and then Gu Qingqing coaxed her to sleep.

Gu Qingqing looked at the dark sky outside and said to Dahua, "It's still early to get up now, let's sleep in for a while."

Dahua was very excited. She was not sleepy at all. But thinking about how her mother had to do a lot of things every day, she nodded. However, she did not return to her bed. Instead, she said to Gu Qingqing expectantly, "Mom, I want to sleep next to you and hug Sanhua."

Gu Qingqing was naturally satisfied with this little thing. She moved aside and let Dahua get into her bed.

......

Gu Qingqing had something on her mind, so she got up at daybreak. Since there were many things to do today, she would do them one by one.

She cooked porridge early, and then made a few pancakes. When others arrived, she said, "The food is ready in the kitchen. You guys eat first. I'll go out later."

After saying that, she went out with a sickle and a bamboo basket on her back.

She knew where Centella asiatica was, it would just take some time on the way. Besides, mugwort could be found everywhere, but it was most effective around the Dragon Boat Festival. A poor efficacy did not mean that it had no medicinal effect, she comforted herself.

The reason for making mugwort soap is, firstly, to improve the color of the soap and make it smell a little fragrant, and secondly, mugwort soap has the effect of dispelling wind and cold, removing dampness and relieving itching.

When she came down from the mountain stepping on the sunshine that was shining on the world, she first went to Luo Meihua and explained her purpose.

"Sister-in-law, it's nothing for me to go to town, but it's such a big restaurant. How can I expect people to believe me when I go there?"

"I've thought about this. You can just say that our two families are close neighbors, and then tell him that I have something at home these days and can't get away, so please take me there. Then you can tell him about my appearance and family characteristics. The main thing is to let him inspect our sour bamboo shoots. As long as he likes them, it'll be fine. If there are other things, just wait a few days. If you miss this period of time, the bamboo shoots on the mountain will not be delicious if they grow later." Gu Qingqing said to Luo Meihua.

"What if the other party likes you or not?"

"That's easy. If you don't like them, come back and we can share the jar among ourselves. If you like them, just ask them how much they want. No matter how much they want, just agree to it. At most, we will have to work hard for a few days. When I'm done with these two days and go back to the town to deliver the sour bamboo shoots, I can discuss the details with them."

After all, Luo Meihua had set up a stall in the town for a few months last year. Hearing Gu Qingqing say this, she felt a little uneasy. Besides, this was still her half of the profits. Not to mention asking her to make a trip today, she would be happy to deliver goods every day in the future.

"Okay, then I get it. After I have a bite of food, I will go to your house and prepare some pickled bamboo shoots for Zhiweilou." Luo Meihua replied.

"Okay, then I'll wait for you at home. Thank you for your hard work today." After saying this, Gu Qingqing walked out.

"Sister-in-law, you haven't eaten yet. The food will be ready soon at home. You can eat something here before going back." Luo Meihua tried to persuade her to stay.

Gu Qingqing turned her back to her and waved her hand, saying, "When I came out, the meal at home was ready."

When she came home, the two children, one big and one small, shouted "Mom!" in unison.

"My little darling, it's time for you to get up too." Gu Qingqing said as she took off the bamboo basket from her back and put it on the ground, then walked towards Dahua Sanhua.

"Mom, we have all eaten. There is still rice left in the pot. I'll go get it for you now." Dahua saw her mother catch Sanhua, and as she spoke she walked towards the kitchen.

Gu Qingqing saw no one in the front yard, so she followed Dahua to the kitchen and asked, "Is your uncle Zhao Dong already busy in the backyard?"

"Well, they went to the backyard after dinner. Uncle Dong told mom to go to the backyard to check when she comes back, as they are a little unsure." Dahua said.

Gu Qingqing nodded after hearing this, "Please serve the rice first, I'll go check it out."

Gu Qingqing carried Sanhua to the guardhouse. Unexpectedly, the piglets that usually surrounded her when they saw her were now sleeping head to head with their bellies bulging. When she came in, one of them just glanced in her direction and continued to sleep.

"Have the piglets been fed?" Gu Qingqing asked.

Zhao Dong, who was standing on the other side of the fence, smiled and replied, "Dahua and Daxin just gave them some food. It's just in time for you to come back. We have already filtered out the Litsea cubeba juice. Can you see if we can still make it the same way as a few days ago?"

Gu Qingqing gave some instructions here, and then said to Zhao Dong, "Brother Dong, I have other important things to do today. I'll ask Dahua to come over to help later, and you and Brother Nan will decide on the division of labor, who will pick up the paper and who will dry it? It's best to find a woman to do this job, but there's only so much, and it's a bit time-consuming to teach someone. So you and Brother Nan will have to work hard today, and I'll come over when I'm done over there."
