"I won't give this toilet water to my sister-in-law for now. When I make the perfume later, I will give her some more," she said.
Sun said: "That's fine."
Although she did not give Yang Huamei any toilet water, Yang Ruoqing later picked up some refreshing herbs that could be used by pregnant women and had mosquito-repelling effects, and made a sachet and gave it to Yang Huamei.
"Sister-in-law, there is musk in the toilet water. You can't use it while you are pregnant. You should make do with this first."
"When I make the perfume next time, I'll give you one more."
When Yang Ruoqing brought the sachets, Mrs. Tan happened to be away, so she stayed and talked to Yang Huamei for a while.
Yang Huamei looked at the sachet in her hand over and over, with a child-like smile on her face.
"Hey, this sachet is so fragrant, I like it!" she said.
"As long as my sister-in-law likes it," Yang Ruoqing said.
Perhaps it was because of the porridge and side dishes during this period that the young lady in front of me had obviously lost a lot of weight.
Now she should weigh about 120 pounds at most.
When I was the fattest, my facial features were squeezed out of shape by the fat, and my eyes were just slits.
But now, the fat on her face spread out, revealing her true face.
This sister-in-law turned out to have thick eyebrows and big eyes.
The eyes are double eyelids, or the obvious kind of double eyelids.
If she continues to lose weight like this, my sister-in-law won’t actually be ugly.
Yang Ruoqing thought to herself that the genes of the old Yang family would not produce ugly people.
"Meier, are you asleep?"
Outside the house, Bao Suyun's voice came.
"Ah, it's the fifth sister-in-law here." Yang Ruoqing sat up straight and shouted towards the door.
"Fifth sister-in-law, I'm here, come in!"
Soon, Bao Suyun came in, holding a bowl in his hand.
Seeing Yang Ruoqing sitting on the small stool beside the bed, Bao Suyun was startled for a moment, and then smiled.
"Is Qing'er here too?" she asked.
Yang Ruoqing smiled and said: "I made a sachet for my sister-in-law and sent it to her. What are you, fifth aunt?"
Bao Suyun said: "I just made some sesame and glutinous rice dumplings with your mother, and gave two to Mei'er as a tooth-beating ceremony."
Yang Huamei's eyes lit up when she heard Nuomi Yuanzi.
"Oh, I feel sick when I think about fish and meat, so I don't like these snacks," she said.
She quickly reached out her hand to take it.
Bao Suyun handed the bowl over, but there were no chopsticks. Yang Huamei said, "The chopsticks are in the next room. That's my mother-in-law's house."
Bao Suyun said: "I'll get it."
Bao Suyun went to the next room to get chopsticks.
Here, Yang Huamei is holding a bowl and is very happy.
The chopsticks were not brought back, but Tan's curses could be heard outside the room.
"Only those little girls can put on their clothes so well. You, a mother and daughter, have such a good smell. Who do you want to seduce?"
"My fifth child is not at home, so you can't bear the loneliness?"
"I can smell that foxy smell on you from three miles away. It's not cool!"
Then, Bao Suyun's suppressed sobs came.
In the room, Yang Ruoqing's expression changed and she stood up.
Yang Huamei also frowned and shouted directly towards the door of the house: "Mom, don't scold the fifth aunt, she is here to give me glutinous rice dumplings!"
The cursing outside suddenly stopped, and Mrs. Tan entered the room.
Yang Ruoqing deliberately stood aside and said nothing.
Mrs. Tan didn't realize there was anyone else in the room, so she asked Yang Huamei when she entered the door: "What? Does that slutty vixen have such good intentions?"
Yang Huamei didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "Mom, I'm holding the bowl in my hand, and the glutinous rice balls are still hot. My fifth sister-in-law is going to help me get the chopsticks!"
"Besides, the fifth sister-in-law is applying toilet water to repel mosquitoes."
"Get rid of all the sisters-in-law and aunts in the courtyard of Third Brother's house. You can't stop scolding my Fifth Sister-in-law with those unpleasant words. Fifth Brother is not at home. It's not easy for her to raise two children by herself!"
Hearing Yang Huamei's words, Mrs. Tan was startled.
"Meier, what's wrong with you? Why did you speak for her?"
"You were bribed with just a few glutinous rice balls?"
"Are you still my daughter? Are your elbows turned outward?"
Tan's face looked ugly, and his voice was also filled with obvious displeasure.
Yang Huamei rolled her eyes and was speechless.
Tan continued: "And that damn fat girl, she's so partial!"
"I went to find out. Everyone in this yard sent toilet water, but they didn't send it to us!"
Tan babbled.
Yang Huamei was dumbfounded. She glanced at Yang Ruoqing, who was standing by the bed, and then at Tan.
I wanted to remind Mr. Tan several times, but when Mr. Tan spoke, it was difficult for ordinary people to get in.
"Don't let me touch her later. If I do, I have to talk about her..."
"Milk, you can talk to me properly now."
The sound of sudden penetration startled Tan.
"Fat girl?"
She immediately sensed Yang Ruoqing's location.
"When did you come in?"
Mrs. Tan immediately became alert, and her white chrysanthemum skin turned a layer of embarrassing red.
The old lady was a little embarrassed when someone heard her saying bad things about people behind their backs.
Yang Ruoqing twitched the corner of her mouth and did not reply to her.
Yang Huamei sighed secretly and said helpfully: "Qing'er sent me a mosquito repellent sachet before, but she didn't leave at all..."
"ah?"
Tan's face, as if drunk, turned red at a speed visible to the naked eye, and then turned red again...
"What, the sachet can also repel mosquitoes? Don't fool us!"
Tan asked.
Yang Ruoqing twitched the corner of her mouth: "Mistress, you are really good at changing the subject!"
"You answer my last question first. What do you want to say to me? I'm standing here waiting for you to say it!"
Yang Ruoqing said again.
Tan's face drooped, "You damn fat girl, you're still getting into trouble with me? I'm your grandma, your father's mother!"
Yang Ruoqing rolled her eyes, "Are you using your seniority to oppress others? You're obviously cheating."
Tan snorted, stood there with his hands folded, and said nothing.
Seeing this, Yang Huamei came out to smooth things over: "Qing'er, your grandma just said it casually, so don't argue with her."
As Yang Huamei spoke, she blinked at Yang Ruoqing and made a begging gesture.
Yang Ruoqing planned to give Yang Huamei some face.
"Sister-in-law, you can eat the glutinous rice balls while they are hot. I have to leave beforehand."
Yang Huamei said: "Qing'er, please wait a moment."
"What's wrong?" Yang Ruoqing asked.
Yang Huamei said to Mrs. Tan, "Mom, go and open the cabinet. There is a pack of crispy candies inside. Let Qing'er take it to Dabao and Mianmian."
Tan was surprised.
"What are you talking about? If there is no halva, I would have already eaten it!" She refused.
Yang Huamei emphasized her tone: "Mom!"
Tan didn't know what to do and frowned: "I'm afraid you'll be hungry at night. Why are you feeding them two? One of them is a wild species..."
"mother!"
Yang Huamei's voice was unhappy.
"If you don't take it, I'll take it myself!"
Come on, Yang Huamei really wants to get out of bed.
Mrs. Tan was anxious and scared.
"I'm an ancestor. Don't move around. Mom, come and get it. Why don't you come and get it?"
