Traveling through time as a peasant girl to turn things around
Chapter 33: Sun Quan is sad, I won’t talk about it anymore
For several days, Sun Quan ate, slept, and then woke up to pull hemp stalks. Sun Gui finally realized his son wasn't talking to him or his mother anymore, remaining silent all day. Zhang Qing asked him questions, but he remained silent. Sun Gui went to the county to see a doctor. The doctor felt his pulse but couldn't find anything, only that he felt a lot of qi. The man was experiencing internal qi that couldn't be released, causing his aphasia.
After examining the child, the doctor said, "Your parents will know what to do by looking at the child themselves. There's no need to prescribe medicine. Parents who love their children will plan for them in the long run." With that, the old doctor stood up and left. Sun Gui hurriedly drove the ox cart to see him off.
One day, the fourth brother Jia Yu came to him and asked him to bring bricks to build the west side of my house for my relatives. Sun Quan said: "Okay." "Tomorrow." The fourth brother hurried away.
The Chai family was busy, having to go out to pull hemp stalks every night. The road was too far, so they couldn't get much. Chai Zhen and Ping'an said, "Son, take some time to go and see if there's any more nearby. If not, we can cross the river. We can use an oxcart or a cart with iron wheels." It was almost a month. "Okay, Dad."
Little Milk Bag saw that everyone in the family was thin, and that Grandma Li didn't gain weight even though she stewed fish soup every night. His consciousness returned to the space, and he pulled out thirty or forty bags of white flour and rice, filling the whole room. He said loudly, "Grandma, here's a snack tonight." In the yard, there was a thud, and a large piece of beef appeared in the yard, along with a sheep. "Baa." Chai Zhen went out, tied the sheep with a rope, and led it into the kitchen. Grandma Li brought some cabbage leaves to feed it. Li Ru held the child, feeling sorry for her daughter who was so young and had to worry about the family. The two daughters-in-law put down their work and went to the kitchen. Chai Zhen: "Raise this sheep first and stew it with beef. Granddaughter-in-law, you two steamed white flour buns." "I know, Grandpa." "Wait until the men get up and have dinner before going."
Chai Zhen returned to the west room. Little Milk Bag said to Great Grandfather, "Daddy, Uncle, and Grandpa will just use the ropes to pull the hemp stalks and tie them up. I'll collect them." "Okay." Chai Zhen carried the flour to the main room and put it under the kang. After the move, Chai Zhen was exhausted and panting. Little Milk Bag looked at Great Grandfather and took out a bag of milk for him to drink. He also took out a box of biscuits for his brother, Great Grandfather, and mother. He also took out three candy sticks, one for each of the three children. Of course, Little Milk Bag's mother held them, and she just opened her little mouth and licked them, laughing.
"The Monkey King's Birth" appeared on the computer screen. Three children and two adults sat on the kang, eating and watching. Chai Zhen thought to himself, "This is better than being a god." He's been showing two episodes a day for the past few days. Little Milk Bag said, "This is a culture from thousands of years in the future. Let's show it to everyone in advance."
After watching two episodes, Little Milk Bag was turned off. He took it away. He picked a basket of apples from the space tree; they were big and red. Chai Zhen washed a few, cut one in half, and gave half to Huanhuan and Hengheng. The apples were too big. Ru and Grandpa each got one. At midnight, the fourth child got up and moved a large table. Wang Min and Zhang Baohua brought a large pot of stewed beef and white flour buns. With a few bowls and chopsticks, everyone ate. Chai Zhen said, "Let's go after dinner. We won't be carrying a load tonight, so bring some ropes to tie it up and put it in a pile." The fourth child was the most relaxed, grinning as he ate and looked at his daughter. The others also understood. It was their baby who loved them! Each of them ate an apple when they left. They only took gloves and ropes.
The road is long and it takes more than half an hour to get there. But more work was done in one night than in four or five nights. Just pull, bundle and put a big pile, then a big hand appeared in the sky, waved and disappeared. Soon the rope fell from the sky. Chai Zhen was untying the rope at home. It was almost dawn, and the voice of a little kid came from the sky, "Grandpa, uncle, daddy. Stop, go home." Everyone tied up and carried a pile. "Whoosh." The pile of hemp stalks in front of us disappeared. Everyone walked back quickly. Not tired today. When we got home, everyone went to the water pond in the east of the yard to look. "Wow" what a big pile. Jiahe, you put it in the water and take a shower before going to bed. Go put on your raincoat. The others simply washed up and went to bed. Jiahe didn't come out until he finished putting the stalks and pressed them with stones. He was not wet or cold at all. Washed his hands and went to bed.
Li Guang was old, and the journey was long. Chai Zhen said, "Don't go pulling hemp stalks anymore. Wait until you get to Hexi, where the road is closer. Then you can go." Dongzi was making a lot of money, so building a house wouldn't cost much, and he had enough money to marry a wife. "Come on, focus on the house for now."
The village chief also got Li Guang's household registration back and handed it to him. "After you build your house, write down the names of your neighbors and clearly state the location of your house. I'll then go to the county to get it stamped and report it."
The three of them went to measure the area of the house. Chai Zhen said, "Gui, can you build a little more to the north?" Sun Gui: "Yes, no matter how big it is, don't write too much for the foundation of the house. The maximum is ten acres. The front and back of the house are all yours.
A path was left for the west household, leading eastward. The south side of the courtyard wall of the Heping family's front yard was straightened. The north side could be extended. The space between the two households was over a thousand meters wide. The houses were measured and marked.
"Let's build the main house first. How long should we leave for the front yard?" Li Guang said, "Let's make it level with our new house. Build five rooms." "Okay." The three of them arranged the house into five rooms and measured the size. Chai Zhen said, "Give the east house a suite. Draw up a blueprint and learn something." Li Guang: "Okay."
Li Guang stayed behind to prepare the land. The village chief returned home. Chai Zhen also went home.
"Jiahe, Lidong, come here," Chai Zhen said, holding up his raincoat. "Put it on, Jiahe." "You go down into the water and fish out the hemp, Lidong, carry it out. Once it's clean, spread it out to dry." Chai Zhen began peeling the hemp; the peeled hemp would dry faster if hung out to dry. Wang Min, Zhang Baohua, Runiang, and Old Lady Li also came over to peel the hemp. Wet hemp was easier to peel and dry. The family chatted and laughed, and there was no shortage of work to do.
Li Ru cared for the three children. Little Milk Bag, full and playing with his brother, took out the picture books to learn words. Huanhuan and Hengheng recognized cabbage, white radish, and red radish. They couldn't recognize anything else. Huanhuan said, "Sister, let's look at the monkey." Little Milk Bag shook his head. "Bread," Little Milk Bag said. Huanhuan and Hengheng both looked at the picture. "It's so pretty," he asked his sister. "Is it delicious?" "Very good." Little Milk Bag pulled a large bag from his space. Each of them got one, big, fluffy, and soft. Li Ru added firewood to the kang. Looking up, she saw the three little ones eating. The brother was feeding his sister, stuffing the food into her mouth... Li Ru quickly stopped him, saying, "Sister Huanhuan doesn't eat, she only drinks milk. You eat. Sister is hungry, Auntie will feed her." Li Ru set up hot water for the children so that whoever was thirsty could drink. She held her daughter and sat on the kang.
It was almost noon when Mrs. Li went to cook. The eldest daughter-in-law felt unwell and went back to her room to rest.
A pot of stewed beef, radish and cabbage was cooked, and steamed buns were made. A side dish of carrots was also prepared. A pot of tomato and egg soup was prepared with vinegar and sesame oil. A layer of steamed buns was also steamed for the children. However, the children refused to eat. They were full of bread and biscuits. Li Ru smiled, and the little kid also laughed. Ru's mother and his father ate happily. After the meal, Ru's mother looked at her granddaughter and let Ru take a nap. Ru's father went back to his room to rest. Jia He and Li Dong had been fishing all day, and Grandma Li was waiting for them to take a bath. She even heated up the kang in the main house and the bathroom, fearing that they would catch a cold. Grandma Li called Sister Ma and asked her to find some clean clothes for her son. Grandma Li brought Jia He's clothes. The doors and windows of the bathroom were closed, and it was warm inside.
After Jiahe finished fishing in the puddle, Mali took off his raincoat and ran to the bathroom. Li Dong was already there. After washing off their fatigue, they both changed into clean clothes. They each emptied the water and cleaned the bucket, placing the dirty clothes in the basket and putting on their clean cotton coats. They all went to the west room, which was the warmest.
