Good Fortune Arrives at the Door of a Rural Doctor's Daughter
For the arrival of his daughter and son-in-law, Mr. Fu was very happy. Early in the morning before dawn, he got up personally and ran to the kitchen, "The young lady loves to eat crystal shrimp dumplings, Liu Mama go buy some from Chen's place, and also get a portion of lotus root cake, hmm, put the glutinous rice porridge on low heat to make it soft, add some lily and dates, the young lady loves to eat them..."
"Come on, sir, please leave. I've been serving the young lady for so many years, can't you see that I know what she likes to eat? This isn't a place for you. Don't worry, I'll take care of everything."
"You'd better keep an eye on her, that little girl's mouth is very sharp. The dumplings can't be steamed too long, and the fire for cooking congee can't be too big." He was still muttering to himself when Liu Mama had already turned around and instructed the little maid, "Quickly go and stew that black chicken, hmm, add two slices of ginseng would be good. Oh, and what about the bird's nest we cooked earlier? Take it to the young lady first, she's not alone now. It's still early for breakfast, having something to fill her stomach is also good."
Not feeling at ease, Master Fu stood outside for a while longer, and when he saw that Mrs. Liu was indeed capable of handling everything, he felt slightly more at ease, and after instructing Little Er again, he turned around and went back inside. In the kitchen, Mrs. Liu's face was beaming with smiles, her footsteps light as air, and in her heart, she was both happy and a little sentimental - from when Fugui's wife had first started learning to speak, Mrs. Liu had been holding her hand, and now, looking at that tiny person who used to be like a jade doll, it seemed like the blink of an eye, and yet that small person had already become someone's wife, and was now about to become someone's mother?
A surge of emotions in her heart, but her movements were swift and urgent. "Hurry up, be careful, young lady is not as pampered as the old master or grandfather, all of you must perk up, otherwise, I'll have your hides first."
After a big commotion in the kitchen, Fu Qiu Lian was still sleeping soundly. When she opened her eyes, it was already bright daylight. Half-dressed and sitting on the couch, looking out of the window, she blinked her eyes.
How did I manage to sleep well for a whole night?
Originally, she was quite nervous before going to bed last night.
She had the habit of recognizing her bed, and it was not easy to get used to the kang at home these days. Now that she has moved to Fu's house, she had mentally prepared for a sleepless night, but unexpectedly, she fell asleep soon after lying down, even before Qing finished reading his book on the other side.
Even she herself is unclear about when Qing goes to sleep.
Finally, she even thought that maybe her insomnia was gone? However, no matter what, after a good sleep, the mood is still great. So when Qing heard the noise and lifted the curtain to walk in, he saw his wife Fow Autumn Lotus with a bright smile on her face. He couldn't help but be infected, his footsteps lightened several points, and he went forward to support Fow Autumn Lotus who was getting out of bed. He smiled warmly, "Wife is awake? Do you want to sleep for a while longer, it's still early."
"Not sleeping anymore? What time did you get up?"
Lian Qing spoke for a while, and Fu Qiu Lian made some mental calculations. She got up at 5 o'clock, and judging from the sky outside, it should be around 8 o'clock now. She couldn't help but click her tongue, "You actually got up more than an hour ago?"
"Yes, I went to bed early last night and woke up early too. I was afraid of disturbing you, so I got up and warmed up for a while." She usually sleeps late, often after 9 pm, and doesn't even know when he falls asleep. According to his habit of sleeping at home, it's always past midnight, and one o'clock is considered early. Waking up at five o'clock means he only slept for four or five hours?
"Master, reading is important, but more important is balancing work and rest, having a good body. The premise of having a good body is to guarantee sleep, have enough rest time, if you continue like this, I will worry."
"Don't worry, I'll try to rest more from now on." Lian Qing's words "I'm fine, I can handle it" rolled off his tongue, but when he saw the dense worry in Fu Qiulian's beautiful black eyes, he changed his tone and smiled slightly at her. "Do you want to wash up now? The water is outside, I'll go get it."
"Thank you, sir."
Although there was a little maid outside the house, Lian Qing was not used to it. This was the Fu family's maid, not theirs, so he would rather serve Fu Qiu Lian himself, washing and dressing her. However, when it came to combing her hair, Lian Qing was still worried. Holding the horn comb, his movements were clumsy and stiff as he tried to tidy up her hair. With great difficulty, he managed to create a simple low bun, but just as Fu Qiu Lian stood up, her hair ornaments fell down.
The creaking sound suddenly made the old man, who was just thinking of coming in to call his daughter for dinner, stop at the door and remember that things were different now. His daughter had grown up, and there was also a stranger, her husband, inside the house. He couldn't enter as he used to when she was young, so he forced himself to stay outside and clear his throat to remind the two people inside. Just then, he heard another creaking sound, which startled him and made him think that his daughter had been wronged. He rushed in, "Daughter, where are you hurt? What's going on? Tell your father, no one can bully you with me around." As he spoke, he glared at Lian Qing, "Son-in-law, my daughter is still young and delicate, she's been spoiled since childhood, so you should be more considerate of her feelings."
The couple in the house was stunned for a moment. Looking at Fú Qiūlián standing there with a tense face, only concerned about measuring her up and down, afraid that she would lose a single hair or be wronged by Old Master Fú, Qīng was the first to react, feeling embarrassed again by his father-in-law's overprotectiveness. "Father-in-law, you misunderstood." The next words he didn't have the nerve to say out loud, how could he say that he felt sorry for his wife, tried to put up her hair, but didn't do it well, and the hairpin fell to the ground, making a noise that startled his father-in-law outside?
"Dad, I'm really fine." Fu Qiulian smiled as she looked at the tense face, and jumped in surprise when she saw the hairpin on the ground. She estimated that he thought it was thrown by Lian Qing? She quickly gave Lian Qing a signal to go out first, and then helped Old Man Fu walk slowly outside, "Dad, I'm hungry, what's good to eat for breakfast?"
As soon as it was mentioned that the baby girl was hungry, Master Fu's thoughts immediately shifted. He repeatedly urged someone to go to the kitchen to fetch breakfast while personally helping his daughter sit down, "You can't afford to be hungry now, sit here and don't move, your favorite dumplings and congee will be served right away."
"Thanks, Dad."
Lian Qing sighed on the side, as a father-in-law and elder brother-in-law who loved his daughter and sister like his own eyes, he watched this loving scene in front of him, feeling not only his dark face but also a deep sense of pressure from his wife's family - his father-in-law was too fond of his daughter, his brother-in-law was too fond of his sister, which for him as the husband, was undoubtedly an invisible whip and a stark warning.
Father-in-law: How dare you bully my daughter? Alright, let's take our daughter back home. My nephew is raised by me myself, and my daughter has me to support her. As for you, what kind of father are you, anyway?
It's okay, you can step aside now.
Big brother-in-law: What? Dare to bully my sister? Depend on it, if I don't hit you until your nose is swollen and your face is like a pig's head, our surname won't be Fu. If I don't beat you until your parents can't recognize you, you still don't know how many eyes the horse king has, or why the flowers are so red.
What's with you, always thinking you're right?
Get out! My fist is the truth. If you have the ability, come and beat me up, if you can beat me, I'll consider you a good man!
Digression
Our home has been without internet for two days. Today, I coded on my phone and had someone else send it out. I'm currently working on the network. I'll try to update twice tonight to make up for it. If not, I'll add an extra chapter once the network is fixed. Please give me some more collections in consideration of how hard I worked, typing each word on my phone...
