Traveling into the 1980s: A Cannon Fodder Female Supporter's Guide to Self-Rescue

Could it be that the cousin's love for the child is not sincere and everything is just superficial?

After hesitating for a full quarter of an hour, my cousin closed his eyes and wiped his old face.

Then he finally said to Chang Zhirong Qi Yulan: "Sister, brother-in-law, I, I -"

"Third brother will stay at our house for these ten days." Qi Yulan directly cut off the conversation, saving the last bit of face for the honest man.

Chang Zhirong also said: "Yes, third brother, Yulan often talks about third brother and three sister-in-law at home. It is rare to be a guest at home, and I will definitely stay for a few more days."

Only then did Jiang Tang understand the reason for his cousin's hesitation just now.

These days, unless you are very close to someone, you generally won’t go to someone else’s house to eat, especially spend the night.

If you go there, a sensible person will definitely bring their own food rations or equivalent gifts.

My cousin came home empty-handed with his children. Not to mention Jiang Tang's medical expenses, even if he lived here for ten days, he would still have expenses.

This is the fundamental reason for this honest man's hesitation, but let's face it, after all, the current owner of the Chang family is still her parents-in-law.

Naturally, it was necessary for the second elder to come forward. She just said to her cousin:

"I heard you say before that Ergouzi still coughs sometimes, especially at night, and he can't sleep all night long.

There is children's cough syrup at the health station. One bottle can last for about ten days. My cousin, I will go to the health station to get it back tomorrow.

But after all, the child is still young, and it is not good to drink too much medicine. You don't need to wait for the bottle to be finished every time you give him half a spoonful.

Basically, you can stop once you stop coughing. However, if a bottle has been opened, it is best not to drink it after three months. "

During the Chinese New Year, no one is on duty at the health station, but Lao Wang lives nearby, so Jiang Tang can still buy it from the system mall.

She just needed to find a source for the medicine she bought.

After thinking about it, Jiang Tang added: "This medicine is sweet and very thick, but when you have a severe cough, it is best to drink it directly without mixing it with water.

But precisely because the medicine is sweet, children like to drink sugar water, but the medicine cannot make them drink too much. "

Bala, bala, Jiang Tang talked a lot, and many of them were professional terms.

She wasn't afraid that her cousin wouldn't understand. She just wanted to show off her professionalism and make her cousin more eager to stay.

Even if she came here just to change the fate of the cannon fodder female supporting role, but well, things are like birds of a feather.

There are many kind people who do not live very well either.

Jiang Tang felt that she was willing to lend a helping hand if she could help others within her ability.

The cousin tried hard to remember what Xiao Mo's wife said, but he didn't understand most of those words and couldn't remember them at all.

In particular, a lot of medicine was prepared for Er Gouzi, but Xiao Mo's wife said she didn't need money.

"It's not just you, cousin. I don't charge for treating people in the village. I also go up the mountain to collect these herbs myself. As for the cough syrup I'll get back tomorrow, it depends on how much the health station charges. Cousin, don't worry. .”

When he heard that so many good things were free of charge, my cousin was shocked. It took him a long time to whisper:

"Little Wife-in-law Mo, this won't work. This is all your fault. I..."

For a long time, my cousin didn't know what to say. He wanted to say that he should give money.

But in fact, he couldn't spare any money. He spent all his family's money on Ergouzi's medical treatment a year ago.

It’s true that a penny can’t defeat a heroic man.

And Qi Yulan had already seen the third brother's dilemma and directly made the decision for him:

"Well, since I have called you cousin, this is what the children want. Third brother, don't refuse." So the cousin took Er Gouzi to live in Lao Chang's house. It happened that Chang Wuwen and Cao Dahua happened to be here these days. There is a vacant house for them to live in if they don’t come back.

Of course, Qi Yulan put away the bed rolls originally used by the elder and his wife, and made another layer for relatives to live in.

However, my cousin only stayed for three days and planned to go back. First, Xiao Mo's wife was really good, and the medicine she prescribed was much better than the doctor in their commune.

Er Gouzi has only been drinking for three days, but it is obvious that his breath | color | is much better and his face | color | is gradually becoming rosy.

Naturally, my cousin can't stay here any longer. Even though he works from morning to night every day, he takes his children to eat and live at his house.

Every time, my cousin fed them well and the food was very good, which made my cousin feel uneasy.

He also heard from Jingyi that the second sister-in-law likes wild game and other wild products very much, and his cousin plans to go into the mountains to have a look when he returns home.

In the past, Er Gouzi was in poor health, and he and his mother-in-law did not dare to go out.

Now seeing that Ergouzi is much better, my cousin is very happy.

Moreover, Xiao Mo's wife also taught him to recognize some herbs, which are also available in their mountains. When the time comes, he can pick them and cook them for Er Gouzi to drink.

When it was time to leave, Qi Yulan prepared a large backpack with food ready for the father and son to eat along the way.

There were not many things, five kilograms of rice and noodles each, and a large piece of dried bacon.

There is also a pack of white sugar and a pack of brown sugar, and some cakes and candies are also prepared.

These latter things were all bought by Tangtang from someone else. The supply and marketing cooperative that had just celebrated the New Year did not have many good goods.

In fact, there were already a lot of these things, but when she was about to pack them up, Jiang Tang brought another large sack.

Contained inside are some old clothes.

Jiang Tang said this:

"Mom, don't dislike Bi Mi Tai. These are old clothes that some people in the city don't want, which I specially found.

The patches on it might look a little ugly, but I think it's better than what my cousin is wearing anyway. "

She now understands Qi Yulan's personality better, so she said this mainly because she knew her mother-in-law would not be angry after hearing this.

In fact, of course they are not tattered old clothes. They are clothes on sale that Jiang Tang bought in the mall. He tried to pick those that looked older and had rougher colors.

Qi Yulan held Jiang Tang's little hand, "My child, I knew you were good. To them, these are all good things, how could they dislike it?"

The rest is easy to say, but there is no hemp or cloth weaving in the mountains, and there are no cloth tickets.

Not to mention year-round, there are many people who have not made new clothes for several years or even more than ten years.

There are even families with many members who only have one set of clothes, which is worn by each person when they go out.

Jiang Tang's attentiveness made Qi Yulan very pleased, and once again lamented that the second daughter-in-law proved to be much more considerate and sensible than the eldest daughter-in-law.

Then Qi Yulan explained: "If there is a car or take a car on this road, it will save money if you walk all the time, but why should adults and children suffer?"

Of course, she didn't say this in vain. Qi Yulan knew that the old man gave the third brother ten yuan yesterday.

The third brother refused to accept it, so the old man directly told him to pay him an IOU and just remember to pay it back in the future.

He also said: "Er Gouzi still needs to be taken care of after we go back, so his hands must not be empty.

Besides, Er Gouzi is in better health and Third Brother has more opportunities to go out to work. Are you still afraid that you won't be able to earn any money and pay it back to me? "
