Chapter 31 No Money
Sigh... In the final analysis, the Zhu family is too poor and has no money to cause trouble.
Ye Yuran felt that in addition to finding a way to solve the Zhu family's food and clothing problem, she also needed to put making money on the agenda as soon as possible.
After Zhu Qi finished sipping the little red fruit in her mouth, she finally spoke and shouted obediently: "Mom!"
The barefoot doctor checked his throat and confirmed: "My throat is fine. I didn't want to speak just now. I guess I was stunned. It's fine now."
Zhu Qi blinked her innocent eyes, as if she didn't quite understand what they were talking about.
Since there was nothing else, Ye Yuran took the medicine bag from the barefoot doctor and asked brothers Zhu Da and Zhu Er to put Zhu Qi on the door panel and carry him home.
On the way back, she also discussed with Zhu Bamei and wanted Zhu Bamei to give up her room for Zhu Qi to sleep.
"Why?" Zhu Bamei was not happy when she heard this. Seventh Brother's room was so close to the latrine. It would be very smelly if she wanted to sleep in it.
Moreover, Seventh Brother is a fool. If he sleeps in her bed, how can she sleep in it in the future?
"With your seventh brother's current situation, we must take care of him nearby. How can I rest assured that he sleeps alone in a room? When the time comes, you sleep with me, the seventh brother sleeps in your room, and your father sleeps in your seventh brother's room."
Today, she had another big argument with Old Man Zhu. Ye Yuran kept thinking about this matter in her mind. She really couldn't stand this old man and lying on the same bed with him.
Not saying whether he would do anything to her, just saying that he looked cowardly, she was afraid that one night she couldn't stand it anymore and would get up in the middle of the night and blind him to death.
So whether it's for his own good or for your own good, in the end you separate him from yourself.
It just so happened that Zhu Qi's matter was also a very good excuse. She didn't believe that Mr. Zhu would not agree.
"I'll sleep with my mother, and let my father sleep in Brother Seventh's room?" Upon hearing that she wasn't sleeping in Brother Seventh's room, Zhu Bamei thought for a moment and agreed.
My parents' house has windows, which is much better than hers, and it's good to sleep in.
Zhu Bamei ran home early and quickly went into the house to take off the things on her bed to make room for herself.
When old man Zhu saw Zhu Da and Zhu Er carrying the person to their room, he was a little surprised: "Why carry him here instead of sending him back to his own room?"
Zhu Da and Zhu Er didn't dare to say anything.
"With Lao Qi looking like this, why don't you let him sleep alone? He will sleep in my little sister's room." Ye Yuran came over and motioned for the two brothers to carry him in.
When Zhu Da and Zhu Er saw that Old Zhu didn't stop him anymore, they listened to their mother's words and did as they were told.
When I arrived at the house, I discovered that the door to the inner room was a bit narrow and I couldn't get through the door panel.
The two of them put the door panel directly on the table. One person supported her from behind and the other carried her in front. They carried Zhu Qi in and placed her on Zhu Bamei's bed.
"Shoes, shoes, shoes, take off your shoes. This is a good quilt, made of cotton." Zhu Bamei shouted.
Zhu Da knelt down silently and helped Zhu Qi take off his shoes.
Zhu Bamei fanned her nose: "Brother Qi, you smell so bad. Have you not washed your feet for a long time?"
Zhu Qi blinked her innocent eyes: "Wash it."
"When did you wash it?"
"Today, I went down the river ditch."
"Is that also a wash? Oh my God, Brother Qi, you have to get a basin of water to wash your feet before going to bed every day, otherwise it will stink to death..." Thinking of the time at the barefoot doctor's house, her brother was lying on his bed with his shoes on.
, Zhu Bamei felt happy for a while.
If she had to take it off, how much more would she suffer if she stayed there?
Old man Zhu walked up to Ye Yuran and said, "You love your little sister so much, are you willing to let her sleep in the seventh child's room?"
"Then what should we do?" Ye Yuran frowned, looking embarrassed, "You can't ignore Lao Qi like this, right? Even if the younger sister is not happy, she has to give up the bed, otherwise, we can't let Lao Qi go.
Can Qi sleep in our bed?"
"How can that be done? Who will take care of the seventh child when he sleeps on our bed? He is so old and you can't sleep with him in the same bed. I will have to do it then. I can't do it. I worked hard to raise him like this.
It’s not like you have to carry a pot and urinate for him when he gets old..."
Haha! Ye Yuran really wanted to spit in his face: "Okay, if you don't want to serve, you can sleep in Lao Qi's room. My little sister will sleep with me, and I will serve Lao Qi, right?"
"Okay, I'll sleep in Lao Qi's room." Compared with having to serve his son, Old Man Zhu didn't think there was anything wrong with Lao Qi's room.
When he was young, he even slept in a pigsty.
Ye Yuran raised her eyebrows: Okay, the problem is solved, it's easier than she thought.
After entering the house, she dug out Old Zhu's changing belongings according to the memory of the original owner, packed them and sent them to Zhu Qi's room.
Well, how should I put it, Zhu Qi's room was "cleaner" than she thought.
Yes, because there was nothing in the first place, there was no way to mess it up. This saved her a lot of things. She thought she needed to clean up the house for Old Man Zhu. After all, she still had the identity of Old Man Zhu’s wife.
Isn't it?
Zhu Bamei had no idea that her mother had left them dinner, which included not only delicious sweet potato cakes, but also a bowl of fish meatball soup.
"Mom, you cook so deliciously. Why haven't I seen you do this before?"
"Can't eating stop your mouth?" Ye Yuran asked.
Zhu Bamei stuck out her tongue and ate obediently.
Next to her, Zhu Qi was sitting on the bed, eating fish meatballs intently. He picked one and put it in his mouth, chewing it slowly, and narrowed his eyes in deliciousness.
Ye Yuran discovered that the two brothers and sisters were actually quite similar. The squeamishness between Zhu Bamei's eyebrows and the childishness between Zhu Qimei's eyebrows gave the two somewhat similar faces a different feeling.
I have to admit that both the original owner and Old Man Zhu must have had good looks when they were young. The children of the Zhu family all have outstanding looks in Zhujia Village.
It's a pity that because the Zhu family talks a lot and lives a difficult life, they are all raised to be skinny, and they like to arch their backs and sleeves. Their temperament is simply - it's hard to describe in words.
No matter how good-looking your face is, it is useless if it loses its temperament.
After dinner, Ye Yuran asked Zhu Bamei to wash the dishes. This time she didn't say anything and went there obediently, including Zhu Qi's.
After my sister-in-law boiled hot water, she came back and asked, "Mom, do you want to wash your feet?"
"Do you think your Seventh Brother's feet smell bad?" Ye Yuran glanced at her.
"It's not that I dislike it, it just really stinks."
"Then when you ate just now, didn't it smell delicious?"
"Hey! Aren't you hungry?" Zhu Bamei admitted. It was because she was used to smelling it and no longer felt it.
"I'll make a pot for your seventh brother, grab a stick of mosquito repellent and squeeze some juice into it." In fact, Ye Yuran also thought that Zhu Qi's feet smelled a bit.
But she also understood that Zhu Qi was a fool. The original owner didn't care, and neither did the other brothers. No one cared about him when he came back from running for a day. After eating, he climbed into bed and went to sleep. It was normal for his feet to smell a little.
"His feet are so smelly, I don't want to wash them," Zhu Bamei said immediately.
"I didn't let you wash. Use a cleaner basin. I'm going to wipe your seventh brother's body. It's not convenient for you, a big girl."
