"No, Doctor Sheng said you need medicine for half a month," Qin Junyao said, holding onto Zhao Liangcai's hair, refusing to let go.
She could only hold his hair to keep Zhao Liangcai somewhat in check.
"Yaoyao, Doctor Sheng said the medicine for half a month would cure me. He didn't say I couldn't walk during this time," Zhao Liangcai said, secretly preparing his hands. He was determined to walk today.
"Well, Doctor Sheng also didn't say you could leave early, hey?" Zhao Liangcai suddenly grabbed Qin Junyao's wrist and twisted it backward, causing her to naturally release her grip.
By the time she tried to grab him again, Zhao Liangcai had already reached the door.
"See, I can really walk. It's nothing. Dad is slaughtering a pig today, I'll go take a look."
Qin Junyao picked up a pillow and threw it at Zhao Liangcai, "Good intentions are mistaken for donkey liver and lungs. What's so good about slaughtering a pig? Haven't you killed enough pigs in the forest?" Suda Novel Network.
Zhao Liangcai leaned against the door, "That's right, it's almost New Year, I need to take people into the forest to hunt some game."
"You dare."
Whether he dared or not, Zhao Liangcai had already gone out the door. It would be incredibly difficult for Qin Junyao to catch him now.
Zhao Liangcai didn't just talk the talk; he actually took people into the mountains. Qin Junyao was furious at home, like a toad.
"Yaoyao, Liangcai isn't a child. He knows his own body. Don't be angry, be careful not to spoil your milk," Aunt Qin the Second said, wiping the gap under Xiao Si Niu's neck with a handkerchief. He was sweating a bit from wearing too many clothes.
"Auntie, after the New Year, he's going to lead soldiers to war. What if something happens if his leg isn't healed properly?" Qin Junyao's expression was angry as she looked at the doorway, thinking of Zhao Liangcai.
The man, fearing she would nag, had taken two steamed buns from the kitchen and left without even seeing her.
"Don't worry, nothing will happen. Oh, our Langtou is awake? Do you recognize me? I'm your great-aunt's sister."
"Oh, you don't want your great-aunt's sister to hold you? You don't want to be held?" Aunt Qin the Second playfully poked Xiao Langtou's cheek, trying to get her to look at her.
Qin Junyao took a diaper from a basket by the kang and changed Xiao Langtou. Xiao Langtou, now comfortable, smiled and allowed Aunt Qin the Second to hold her.
"Daughters are indeed more considerate. Your brother cries his lungs out when he's hungry or wet. My ears are still not clear sometimes; it's all from him."
Qin Junyao took Aunt Qin the Second's handkerchief and placed it under Xiao Si Niu's neck. The fleshy folds were layered, requiring two flips to see his neck.
"Mine is worse than crying during the day; crying every night is unbearable."
"Your grandmother's method is working, isn't it? It will get better slowly. Alas! Yaoyao, is your grandmother planning to separate the family after the New Year?"
"Why do you ask like that, Auntie?" Qin Junyao let Xiao Si Niu hold her finger to play with. This child's grip wasn't as tight as Xiao Langtou's.
"When I arrived, your grandmother was just going to watch the pig slaughter. She told me to go to Yan County after the New Year to buy more bowls and chopsticks. We have enough bowls and chopsticks at home, so I thought she only wanted me to buy them because the family was going to split."
Although the Qin family now had separate houses for each branch and a kitchen for each family, they still ate together. No wonder Aunt Qin the Second was so suspicious.
"I haven't heard my grandmother mention it. Auntie, you don't want to split the family?" Qin Junyao knew that her grandmother intended to separate the family after the New Year, but she couldn't reveal this information.
If her grandmother had other plans, revealing it early might disrupt them.
Aunt Qin the Second put Xiao Langtou down, letting her lie there by herself. "Yaoyao, Auntie has always treated you and Xiao Yu like her own daughters, so I'm not afraid to tell you my thoughts."
"If it's for your father, Auntie wants to split the family. After your father became the village chief, his personality changed quite a bit."
