Chapter 116: Experience
Lu Xiaobao was woken up by his own mother in a daze. He didn't even open his eyes. He just twisted his little body and waved his little fleshy hands in the air in a tantrum. Read
Now Xiaobao rarely wakes up at night. He wakes up once at most, and sleeps until dawn after feeding. Unlike before, he had to feed once every hour.
Su Qingmei was eager to know whether the golden finger would work on Lu Xiaobao, so she made a can of milk powder and woke him up.
Seeing that he was moving, she hurriedly put the pacifier to his mouth, and watched with a clenched heart, without blinking.
Seeing that Lu Xiaobao's lips touched the pacifier, he closed his eyes and turned his head to the side.
Su Qingmei's heart tightened. Did he see it? Did he feel the existence of the thing?
Unwilling to give up, she put the pacifier into his mouth again...
This time, the little thing opened his mouth and took the pacifier in. He even smacked it unconsciously a few times.
Su Qingmei hurriedly lifted the bottle up, staring at Lu Xiaobao, watching him suck unconsciously with his eyes closed, and then turned her head stiffly to look at the bottle...
Seeing the milk in the bottle falling down bit by bit, Su Qingmei cried excitedly.
This golden finger is useful for her son!
Her son can feel it and enjoy the things in the golden finger like her!
She complained about this useless system countless times. She couldn't make a fortune with the golden finger. It was useless. Why give her the system? The door was closed, and the window was open as if it was not open. What's the point of coming here! Did they just send her here by mistake as compensation to ensure that she would not starve to death and that she would have medicine when she was sick?
But now it seems that she gave birth to him, so she also wanted to ensure that he would not starve and that he would have medicine when he was sick?
Su Qingmei bowed gratefully on the bed. That's enough, that's enough.
In the past, I thought that a person came naked and would leave naked in the future, without any worries. Now there is a little life brought by her. It is enough to not let him go hungry or sick without medicine. I don’t feel guilty anymore.
Su Qingmei’s panic was relieved a lot.
Unconsciously, she fed Lu Xiaobao a whole bottle of milk. Lu Xiaobao was never satisfied and ate the whole bottle of milk.
I don’t know if he was full.
Su Qingmei was a little panicked and wanted to shake him up, but she didn’t expect that the little thing would fall asleep after eating, and she couldn’t wake him up no matter how she shook him.
Su Qingmei had no choice but to let him go. She stared at him blankly all night, and saw that he didn’t spit up milk or anything unusual, so she was relieved. At dawn, she changed his diaper three times.
She didn’t sleep all night.
At dawn, Lu Xiaobao woke up regularly at the usual time, babbling and calling Su Qingmei. Su Qingmei looked sleepy, and told Xiao Qingxing to carry him out, and fell on the bed to catch up on sleep.
In the next few days, Su Qingmei tried a few more times. After confirming that Lv Xiaobao could really see and use the things in the system, Su Qingmei felt relieved.
Her messy heart calmed down.
Now people on the street still line up in long queues every day to buy salt. After the price of salt rose, Su Qingmei no longer made pickles and kimchi to sell in the store. Most people's families have also started to live a life of less salt and light food, and a whole family often does not need a little salt for a meal.
In the past, Su Qingmei would often buy some coarse salt to make salt-baked chicken for everyone to eat, and would also make it and sell it in the store. Since the price of salt rose, she has never done it again. When Grandma Zhou cooked in the store, she was reluctant to put even salt, and the soup was no different from plain water.
Xiao Qingxing often complained to Grandma Zhou, saying that the soup was the same as plain water and tasteless.
Grandma Zhou told her earnestly that in the past, some families could not afford salt. A family could not eat salt for half a month or a month. They were sore and weak all over, and felt nauseous when walking. So the whole family had to lie in bed together.
Xiao Qingxing was scared when she heard this. She dared not complain about the lack of salt in the food anymore. Less salt is better than no salt.
Every day, the two brothers and sisters ran outside to watch secretly. They saw that there were people queuing in front of the salt shop before dawn every day. Sometimes, they would secretly give a small paper bag of salt to the children like them because they felt so pitiful.
Su Qingliu wanted to stop them, but Su Qingmei saw that they knew the limits, so she didn't say much, just reminded them once. Moreover, the amount of salt in the kitchen was limited every day. The extra salt was hidden in the cellar, and the amount in the kitchen was only enough for two or three days. They couldn't take much, so they didn't care much.
Su Qingmei's store had good business. Fruits and vegetables were abundant in summer, and it was easy to harvest them. Every day, Su's father and Su Dahu could collect several carts of dried fruits and vegetables. Su Qing'an was afraid that the price of grain would rise, so she still collected fruits and vegetables as usual, but she didn't sell the dried vegetables and fruits anymore.
Xu Shaoyan was also waiting and watching, and he didn't send anyone to collect dried fruits and vegetables. This was what the two of them had agreed on before.
Sometimes Xu Shaoyan would send someone to tell her about the news outside, and Liu Juye would occasionally come to see Xiaobao and say a few words to her. He said that it was chaotic outside and asked her to stay in the town with the child and not run around.
In early August, Lv Yuzhu got married. Because the situation in the town was not very good recently, Lv Shengcai didn't hold a big wedding. He only invited some friendly families in the town, plus Su Qing'an's family, and all the relatives of the old Lv family.
Of course, the main reason was that Lv Shengcai had stockpiled a lot of goods at home and in the store, and he was short of money. In addition, in another month, Lv Bozu would also get married, and the son of a scholar must get married in a big way, otherwise the Sun family in Pingchuan County would not agree.
As a result, the grand ceremony that Lu Yuzhu wanted was almost not achieved. This made her very angry.
Su Qingmei went to help early in the morning, and when she put on her makeup, she still had a stern face.
As the eldest sister-in-law, Su Qing'an's makeup couldn't be too bad, so she gave her a pair of gold bracelets. It was also a little thought from the eldest brother and sister-in-law. Moreover, Lu Shengcai loved his grandson Lu Xiaobao very much. Even though Su Qing'an knew that Lu Yuzhu didn't care about her as the eldest sister-in-law, she still gave Lu Shengcai enough face.
Wu was satisfied with the makeup gift Su Qing'an gave. Seeing that Lu Yuzhu didn't say anything, she scolded her.
Su Qing'an didn't care, put on her makeup and went out.
Seeing that Lu Boshou's wife Huang also brought her son to the wedding, she happily took Xiaobao over.
The two little brats stared at each other with big eyes and looked at each other in surprise. Huang's son Lu Weiji was a few months older than Xiaobao and had grown several teeth. Seeing Xiaobao's white and chubby appearance, he reached out to pull him in a friendly way.
Xiaobao was unhappy and slapped him with his hand, hitting his hand down. The child just pursed his lips and reached out to pull Xiaobao. Seeing Su Qing'an glaring at him and seeing that Lu Weiji looked harmless, Xiaobao finally reached out to him. The two brothers happily babbled incomprehensible words.
They amused everyone in the old Lu family.
Old Lu and Grandma Lu were the happiest. The two little great-grandchildren were so cute, right in front of them. The old people liked the prosperous family and the harmonious appearance of children and grandchildren around their knees.
"Wei Yang is really well raised. He is white and fat. Look at Wei Ji, he is dark and thin. He is a few months older than Wei Yang, but when the two brothers stand together, Wei Yang looks older than him."
Huang looked at the two boys held in the arms of Old Lu and Grandma Lu, and asked Su Qing'an how she raised the children.
Seeing that she didn't have any sour words, Su Qing'an gave little Wei Ji a pair of small silver bracelets, talked to her for a while, and said: "Yang Yang eats a lot, no matter how much you give him. When he was little, he ate once an hour, but now he eats once every hour and a half, and eats many meals a day."
"You eat so much, do you still drink milk?"
Su Qing'an nodded: "Yes. I still drink milk. Children who drink milk are white and fat, and grow fast."
"Really? After Wei Ji grew teeth, I didn't let him drink milk, and my milk was not enough for him."
Su Qing'an thought for a while and said: "Then see if you have goat's milk or cow's milk, feed him some."
"Ah, cow's milk or goat's milk? Can he eat it?"
"Yes..."
