MTL - Rebirth 90s: Sweetheart Cub-Chapter 5 Because Qiqi earned her mother-in-law's love by herself
Chapter 5 Because Qi Qi earns her mother-in-law’s love by herself
Zhang Xifeng squatted down and looked at Wa'er at the same level.
Her throat was clogged badly, as if stuck by something sticky.
My heart was swollen and astringent.
After a long time, she stretched out her hand with deformed and rough joints, and stroked the baby's little head.
"Qiqi did the right thing. With what you earn, you can only hold it securely."
"You can stay at your mother-in-law's house in the future."
"You help mother-in-law with work, and mother-in-law gives you food every day, would Qiqi be willing?"
Qiqi was a little confused.
Mother-in-law wants to keep her?
If she agrees, she will never have to wander the streets again.
This is a great temptation for Qiqi.
Her heart was beating violently, and there seemed to be a voice in her ear desperately urging her to agree.
Although she is young, she understands.
My mother-in-law said this because she wanted to support her.
Qiqi tried to open her mouth, but what she said was, "...Why?"
Why are you willing to raise her?
"Because," the old woman smiled, her smile was kind and sincere, "Qiqi earned her mother-in-law's favor by herself."
In the pigsty, the little piglets lay sleepily behind the wooden fence, making a whimper or two from time to time.
The little boy stood blankly in front of the pigsty, his eyes widened, his mouth half-opened, and he couldn't recover from the old woman's answer for a long time.
…
The sea of consciousness.
The little egg man lay reclining with one hand on his cheek, quietly watching the scene in front of him.
In the energy storage pool next to the little egg man, the bottom of the pool, which was originally empty, now has a wisp of purple energy.
As a ten-direction system, using the host as the medium, by absorbing others' true love for the host, transforming the true value into energy.
After its storage pool is full of energy and completes ten stages of tasks, it will be able to return to its own place.
So in the eyes of Little Eggman, the host is just a tool to help it complete its tasks.
"Hey, you like it because you earned it?" The little egg man changed his posture, raised his legs, "boring."
It was born with a golden spoon in its mouth, standing high on the top of the pyramid.
Since childhood, as long as it wants something, others will rush to give it to it.
It doesn't need to fight, win, let alone earn.
So it doesn't understand, why does the little boy show that expression?
Stupid.
…
Qiqi didn't answer.
Zhang Xifeng is not in a hurry, give the baby some time to think about it slowly, it will only happen if the baby is willing.
She took a wooden ladle and handed it to the little baby, "Today, Qiqi will help mother-in-law feed the pigs. After feeding, you can exchange for today's food and that little set of clothes."
Qi Qi's eyes lit up, and she took the wooden ladle, "Don't worry, mother-in-law, I will do a good job!"
This answer made Zhang Xifeng burst into laughter again, and even the melancholy that was suppressed in her heart was relieved a lot.
Little Piggy is sick and anorexic, she knows it well, and guesses that Little Piggy won't be able to eat much even if he eats.
I would say that mainly to find some work for my baby.
lest she be obsessed with repaying it.
Qiqi held a wooden ladle with a serious expression on her face, as if she was about to go to the battlefield to do something important.
Open the wooden fence of the pigsty, and scoop the warm pig's manure into the food bowl. The smell of pig's manure quickly mixed into the air, mixing with the smell in the pigsty, which is not pleasant.
Qiqi didn't feel any discomfort, and continued to add pigskin to the food bowl.
In the sea of consciousness, the little egg man who dislikes the little boy suddenly waved his noodle hand at this time. The wisp of purple air that just emerged from the storage pool flew out along with its movements, and finally flowed into the food bowl along the little baby's hand.
"Hey, hey..." The two little piglets lying sleepily by the food bowl moved their noses, then got up on their legs, and put their heads into the food bowl.
Taste one bite, two bites.
A moment later, the two piglets began to scramble for food, and the scene was very lively.
Zhang Xifeng, "..."
Did she remember wrongly? Is the little piggy not sick?
Still slept for a long time, the disease has been cured?
She has raised pigs for so many years, and she has never seen such a scene. The two pigs seemed to be afraid that they would miss a bite. The food bowl dominates the world.
"..."
"Mother-in-law!" The little boy turned his head, the smile on his little face was bright with surprise, and his eyes were dazzling, "The little piggy eats so deliciously!"
Zhang Xifeng nodded blankly, "Ah, yes, this is so delicious."
The little egg man in the sea of consciousness turned over and lay on his back, with his eyes closed, the corners of his mouth curled up lazily, "Stupid bastard."
After feeding the pigs, Zhang Xifeng looked at the sky and stopped going out, and stayed at home for the rest of the afternoon to observe the piglets.
If the little piggy didn't continue to breed, I guess there would be no major problem, and there would be no need to go to the town to hire a veterinarian tomorrow.
Their village is remote, and the consultation fee for inviting people from afar is indispensable.
Farmers earn hard-earned money. If they can save it, who would like to spend it for nothing?
When Zhang Xifeng was guarding the little piggy, Qiqi was not idle, she found a bamboo broom in the corner of the yard, and cleaned the yard inside and out.
Until now, she had no time to look at the house.
Granny Zhang’s house is not big, surrounded by fences. There is only one mud-tiled house in the innermost part of the yard. The outer wall has not been painted, and the bare wall is rammed with yellow mud. It may be a long time ago. The wind and rain, the wall has been uneven.
On the left side of the main house is a stove room with the same mud tile structure. Opposite the stove room is a pigsty built with pillars and wooden fences, where two piglets are raised.
In the corner of the courtyard gate, there is also a loquat tree planted with lush branches and leaves, nearly half of the branches stretch out from the fence, covering the path outside the courtyard with shade.
Although the yard of Zhang’s family is not big, it is well cleaned inside, and the firewood and household items are neatly arranged, giving people a sense of tidiness.
After the yard was cleaned, Qiqi sat down on the porch, quietly raised her eyes to look at the back of the old woman who was in front of the pigpen and then went to check on the little piglets, the words that the old woman asked her to stay were repeated in her mind.
"Dandan, my mother-in-law said she wanted to raise me. Do you think I can stay?" She subconsciously asked Xiaodanren for help.
Eggy said that they are already bound, it is a bound relationship.
Qiqi doesn't know what binding is, but she vaguely understands what relationship means.
She has a relationship with Dandan, that is to say, Dandan will be her little partner in the future.
In my mind, the voice of the little egg boy came lazily, "It's useless to ask me, you have to ask yourself."
Didn't get a useful answer, Qiqi clutched her little hands and lowered her head sadly.
Grandma Zhang is very kind, she looks like grandma when she smiles and talks.
In the past, grandma often smiled at her and spoke softly to her.
At that time, grandma always said, "Grandma likes our big girl the most", "Day girl is so good, grandma really hurts my heart."
However, when she was beaten by her parents and smashed by her younger brother with things every day, she said that she liked her and loved her grandma, but she just watched indifferently.
Never protected her, never saved her once.
Later, she no longer believed what grandma said.
