Chapter 116: "Misunderstanding" caused by water
Yu Qingmei walked straight forward and took Yu Qingqing's thin little hands.
She pursed her lips awkwardly and said, "Don't worry, third sister! I can drink less water later and leave some for you and your brother. You don't have to be so frugal and put yourself at a disadvantage."
The fact that Yu Qingmei said these words clearly showed that she had misunderstood what Yu Qingqing had just said.
After Yu Qingqing heard Yu Qingmei's words, the corners of her mouth slightly raised, with a smile on her face. Then she looked sideways at Yu Qingmei and said:
"Haha! Second sister, what are you talking about? You don't have to leave water for me to drink! You misunderstood what I meant. You don't think that's what I mean, do you?
That's right, I want to tell you not to worry about the lack of water, I can solve the water problem.
You can drink as much water as you want, but don’t go to the toilet too often because you drink too much water.
Yu Qingqing blinked and laughed, trying to ease the awkward situation.
How could she be the kind of person who drinks water by herself and lets her family suffer from thirst?
After hearing Yu Qingqing's words, everyone's faces turned red. It turned out that others didn't mean that and it was just a misunderstanding.
Fortunately, we are a family and we talked it out in time, otherwise there would probably be even bigger misunderstandings.
While blushing, I was wondering how Yu Qingqing could find the water source. This is an unsolved mystery.
Now the sky was gradually getting dark, and the only thing in sight was the burning fire, which added a bit of brightness to the surrounding area.
The crackling sound of the burning wood was the only scenery in the quiet night.
"Then Third Sister, how can you find water? The land is dry and cracked everywhere now. It would be very difficult to find drinkable water.
Even if we find it, there is no guarantee that it won’t be stolen by someone else.” Yu Qinghai added a thicker piece of wood to the fire, then looked up at Yu Qingqing and asked.
When Yu Qingqing heard Yu Qinghai's words, she didn't know what to say for a moment. At least she couldn't be so stupid as to say something like "I have space".
Yu Qingshu, who was standing next to him, was at a loss when he saw his daughter. He was obviously stumped by Yu Qinghai's question, so he walked directly in front of Yu Qinghai.
"Pa!" Yu Qinghai was slapped on the head by his father.
"What are you asking? If my sister says there is a way, then there is a way. Why are you asking so clearly?"
Yu Qingshu had a serious expression on his face and was teaching Yu Qinghai a lesson very seriously.
Yu Qinghai smiled awkwardly and touched his head which had just been hit.
"Hey! Hey! Hey! I won't ask, I'll make the decision. Dad, can you please not hit me on the head next time? I'm an adult already."
Yu Qinghai looked at Yu Qingshu with a somewhat resentful look. He felt that he was so old, but his father still hit him on the head, which was really embarrassing.
Yu Qingshu looked at his somewhat unfocused son and glanced at him several times.
He felt so uncomfortable in his heart that he really wanted to beat this kid up, but in the end he held back.
Hua Qinglu looked at her husband and son and shook her head helplessly. She saw that the porridge was already cooked, so she hurried over to smooth things over.
"Okay! Okay! Husband, don't worry about him! The porridge and dishes are ready, let's eat first, and we'll talk about the rest later."
Hua Qinglu, with a smile on her face, pulled her husband over and then secretly looked back at Yu Qinghai a few times.
Yu Qinghai saw his mother looking at him and smiling foolishly.
Yu Qinghai was smiling in front of the fire, but his smile looked a little creepy against the light of the fire.
"Mom, let me help you serve the porridge. We can both have a full meal tonight and leave early tomorrow."
He laughed for a long time before he realized that it was time to eat. Yu Qinghai ran to Yu Qingshu and Hua Qinglu to show his courtesy.
"Okay! Let's serve the food together." Hua Qinglu smiled and waved to Yu Qinghai, calling him over.
Yu Qinghai didn't dwell on the previous question any more, and Yu Qingqing breathed a sigh of relief.
Yu Qingqing finally recovered from the embarrassment she had just felt, but her elder brother continued to ask questions.
She herself didn't know whether she should tell it or not.
She can tell her family about her uniqueness, but she doesn't intend to tell them all or go into great detail.
Hua Qinglu and Yu Qinghai quickly served the porridge into a broken porcelain bowl. There was porridge at the bottom of the bowl and chayote on top. The seasoning was very simple.
There was only salt, nothing else. But for everyone, this was indeed a rare delicacy.
Nowadays, there are many people who still eat tree bark and chew tree roots. What they eat is really not as good as others.
"Wow! The food tonight looks so delicious! The green vegetables look so nice! I want to eat some too! I want to eat more."
The little boy Yu Qingji, who was sitting on the side, was talking in a childish manner.
After this period of time, Yu Qingqing secretly gave spiritual spring water to her family, and Yu Qingji's originally dull and yellow face now returned to normal color.
The whole person looks more energetic than before. Although he is still very thin, this is a good start.
When Yu Qingqing saw her foodie little brother coming online, she couldn't help but laugh.
"Oh! Xiao Ji! You are so easily satisfied! If it tastes good, eat more. In the future, your third sister will buy you more delicious food and will make sure you become plump and white."
Yu Qingqing reached out and touched his younger brother's head, then spoke to him seriously.
When Yu Qingji heard that his third sister was going to buy him something delicious, his eyes immediately lit up.
"Okay! Okay! Third sister! I want to eat something delicious, please buy it for me! Please buy it for me."
Yu Qingji took Yu Qingqing's arms with his thin little hands and started to swing around, acting coquettishly and asking Yu Qingqing to buy him some food.
Yu Qingqing smiled helplessly at this. Children need to be coaxed, but it’s not the right time to buy it now.
Hua Qinglu saw his youngest son, who looked like a foodie. He lowered his head and sighed helplessly, thinking that his son was also this young.
He is obviously shorter than his peers, and it’s all because of lack of food.
Not to mention buying delicious food, if it weren’t for Qing’er and the others, I’m afraid eating would be a problem.
"Okay! Stop shaking your third sister around and make her dizzy. Drink the porridge quickly or it will get cold soon."
Yu Qingshu grabbed Yu Qingji and finally rescued Yu Qingqing.
"Come here! Second sister, this is for you, eat more! We will have to use up a lot of energy to travel tomorrow, and there is water! Please don't save it for me, it's a water problem.
You can drink without worry, but it is best to avoid others when drinking, so that others will not be jealous."
Yu Qingqing first placed a bowl of freshly prepared hot porridge made from brown rice and chayote directly in front of Yu Qingmei.
