Chapter 151 Drinking porridge
There was silence all around, and now the sky had completely darkened. Only where Yu Qingqing and the others were, there was a flickering fire.
Looking around, it was quiet and there was no other fire.
Occasionally, you can hear a few frog calls, but here, it's not necessarily the sound of anything, it could be the croaking of a toad.
The brown rice and chayote in the pot kept rolling around. As the fire was quite strong, the porridge in the pot was cooked soon.
Then Hua Qinglu slowly and carefully poured the porridge into their broken porcelain bowls, and they could drink it after letting it cool down for a while.
"Qing'er, I think the porridge is cooked. I'll put some in the bowl and then continue cooking.
The porridge in a clay pot is not much, and it is probably not enough to fill you up. We can cook and eat at the same time.
I'll have the porridge ready in a minute. Go call your father and the others to see if they have washed up. If they have, ask them to come over and have some porridge."
Hua Qinglu tilted his head slightly, then looked at Yu Qingqing beside him and spoke to her with a smile on his face.
Yu Qingqing touched the water in the bucket and found that the temperature was about right, then she looked at Hua Qinglu.
Blinking her eyes, she said mischievously:
"Mom, I understand. I'll go check on Dad and the others right away.
The water in my bucket is ready. I'll go ask my second sister and the others to wash up, wipe their faces and so on.
This porridge can be left to cool for a while. It is too hot now and not suitable to drink.
We can let Dad and the others drink first, and then we can go wash up first."
Yu Qingqing filled the clay pot with water again and continued to boil it.
It is also good to boil water and put it in the water bag. You can drink it later.
After finishing all this, she turned to Yu Qingshu, the direction they had just gone. She was going to call them back and eat dinner first.
"Dad, big brother, are you ready? The porridge is ready, you can come and drink it first."
Yu Qingqing took a few steps and then stood there, looking into the dark night, calling out to Yu Qingshu and the others.
She didn't dare to go too far away, as it would be pitch black if she went any further, and she was still a little scared.
Yu Qingshu and others in the dark seemed to have heard Yu Qingqing's voice, so they quickly used up the last bit of water and ran over here with an empty bucket.
Yu Qingshu: "Qing'er, we are ready. We will be here soon, don't worry. You don't have to come, it's too dark here, you should go back quickly."
Before Yu Qingshu even reached Yu Qingqing, he had already started to tell her to go back.
It was really dark here, and he was worried about some danger, so he asked her to go back first.
Yu Qingqing soon saw two adults and one child walking slowly in the night. So she didn't say anything else and turned around and started walking back.
Yu Qinghai: "Dad, after I just washed up, I felt really comfortable.
The sweat smell is gone, it's great, I hope you can stay like this forever."
After Yu Qinghai simply washed up, he felt refreshed. He fantasized that he could feel like this every day in the future.
Yu Qingshu turned around and looked at his unreliable son. He felt that his son was now able to say that he was already floating in his heart.
His expression suddenly turned serious. He observed Yu Qinghai's expression, pursed his lips and said:
"I've told you this, even if someone asks you about it in the future, you can't tell anyone about it.
If I find out, you will suffer. This water is also very precious.
Nowadays, many people don’t even have drinking water, but we are still able to simply wash up, which makes us really happy.
Don't just dream about it. If our family keeps everything clean, there won't be any smell at all.
It will definitely arouse other people's suspicion, so you'd better keep a low profile.
Yu Qingshu glared at his son for a few times, looking as if he was disappointed in his son.
Now everyone else has no water to drink, but he is still dreaming. He wants every day to be like this, which makes him happy.
Yu Qinghai still had one thing that he was completely confused about. He just wanted to do this every day and just wash up.
As a result, he was scolded by his father. He hung his head and said a little aggrievedly:
"Dad, don't worry, I don't mean anything else. I just feel very happy to be able to wash off the sweat smell on my body like this every day.
I am just sighing, I don't mean anything else, I will definitely not tell anyone, you can rest assured."
After Yu Qinghai finished speaking, he quickly caught up with his father while holding Yu Qingji.
Hua Yuanyuan and Yu Qingmei also found a secluded corner.
I wiped the sweat off my body very neatly and felt refreshed.
Now, only Yu Qingqing and Hua Qinglu had not washed.
But now the porridge has almost dried up. They have to eat first, and then talk about it after eating, because there are other things to do later.
"Husband, come and drink the porridge, it's ready. After drinking the porridge, finish your work.
Go to bed early and have a good rest. You are really tired after traveling all day today. "
Hua Qinglu saw Yu Qingshu and others coming over, and then waved to Yu Qingshu.
He took a porcelain bowl in his hand, filled it with porridge and handed it to Yu Qingshu.
Yu Qingshu put the bucket in his hand aside and felt particularly happy when he saw the full bowl of porridge in front of him.
At this time, it was really not easy for their family to have food and drink.
He stared at Hua Qinglu's eyes tenderly, then took the porridge from Hua Qinglu's hand and said:
"Thank you for your hard work, my wife. I will start drinking now, you can drink with me.
You must be tired after traveling for so long today. Rest early tonight, and tomorrow may not be so tiring.
After I finish eating, I will find a way to get the cart out. This way, we will all be more relaxed tomorrow."
Yu Qingshu picked up the porridge, found a place to sit down, and began to drink it with slurps.
After taking a mouthful of porridge, I felt my whole stomach warm up and the hunger in my stomach disappeared immediately.
He finished the bowl of porridge in two or three mouthfuls, and then took the second bowl of porridge handed to him by Hua Qinglu and continued to drink it.
Soon, everyone stopped talking and focused on eating.
What I see in front of me is that I can eat such fresh bitter melon and drink delicious porridge.
It feels like all the fatigue of the day disappears without a trace in an instant.
