Li Chu leisurely riding a bicycle listening to his daughter-in-law behind the crisp smiling face is full of laughter.
When I got home, it was already dark. It was always dark in winter, especially in the early morning. Everyone in the courtyard was busy cooking so that people who had been busy for a day could have a hot meal when they entered the house.
When the couple got home, they were busy cooking. It was already good to wake up at noon. Ding Qiunan was rubbing steamed buns. Li Chu had gone to make a fire for the big stove and then added water to the cauldron to prepare for steaming steamed buns.
Busy for an hour, two people finally eat.
After dinner, Ding Qiunan packed up and sat down in front of the sewing machine and began to make sofa cushions again. Li Chu sat down on the sofa and looked at Ding Qiunan and said, "Daughter-in-law, stop working first and I’ll tell you something."
When Ding Qiunan turned to Li Chu, she told her about the hospital she saw at noon, the situation in the hospital, the price, and the cost of rearranging it after buying it, and then asked, "What do you think, daughter-in-law?"
The girl cocked her head and thought for a moment and said, "I’ll buy it if you decide to buy it."
Seeing that she promised to be so frank, Li Chu couldn’t stand it. He thought about how to say Ding Qiunan. As a result, the girl didn’t follow the routine and gave him a whole trick. "How did you promise to be so happy? Shouldn’t you be distressed to spend money?"
Ding Qiunan looked at him like an idiot. "You buy a house for our family. We also have the money to buy it. It’s not a waste of money and it’s a good thing to change a big house. Why don’t I promise?"
After the girl finished speaking, she lowered her head and teased Blackie with her feet.
Li Chu listened to Ding Qiunan and paused for a while. "I took the time to go to my sister’s street office that day."
Ding Qiunan didn’t look up and said, "OK, you can go and get the money in the cupboard."
"What promised so happy? Shouldn’t! "Li Chu prepared a half-day rhetoric and didn’t feel depressed at all.
He muttered this. Ding Qiunan heard the girl look up at him. "There is another reason why I agree to change the big room."
Li Chu looked at her and asked, "Why?"
"That is, when the room is big, I can … I can give you more children." The girl was still a little shy when she said this, and she turned to continue her work.
Li Chu looked at Ding Qiunan’s back and smiled. He didn’t worry about the problem just now. He walked into the room and took out a sofa and began to watch it.
The living room was quiet, and a sewing machine buzzed when it turned.
I don’t know how long it took before knocking at the door woke up the two people who were immersed in their own affairs in the living room.
"Who is it?" Li Chu asked in letting go.
"Brother Chu is my rain" replied the outsider.
Li Chu felt a little strange that the rain had never come to the house to find him. When he opened the door, he saw a little girl with a satchel in her hand.
Rain saw the door open and said to Li Chu in the room, "Brother Chu, can you please do something?"
"Rain comes into the house first," said Li Chu, stepping aside and calling rain into the house.
When the rain came in, I saw Ding Qiunan and greeted "Sister Qiu Nan!"
Ding Qiunan nodded. "Well, the rain, sit down." Ding Qiunan looked at the thin rain and felt a little pity for her. She was already a junior high school girl, but she was still so thin and thin. It was really pitiful for such a wrong person to spread another unreliable brother.
Chapter 50 Poor
"What’s the matter with the rain? What can I do for you? " Li Chu sat down on another sofa and looked at the rain and asked.
Rain picked up his satchel and there was a hole in it. "Brother Chu, can I have a hole in your sewing machine?"
What can I do for Li Chu in the rain? That’s all. "Hi, I, what can I do for you? Give your bag to your sister Qiu Nan and ask her to mend it for you."
Here Ding Qiunan has come over and turned over the bag from the rain. He took it and walked to the sewing machine, and the rain followed him.
Ding Qiunan let the rain pull a stool and sit next to it. "Did you sew this bag of rain yourself?"
Rain shook his head. "I didn’t sew the bag if it wasn’t Qiu Nan. This is an aunt who sewed it for me. I just came to find her, but I didn’t come to you until I thought that an aunt was pregnant and needed a rest at night. Sister Qiu Nan"
"It’s okay. What’s the trouble? It’s not convenient for an aunt to show up. If you can’t do it, you can bring it to me."
"Thank you, Qiu Nan, that’s very kind of you." Rain smiled sweetly at Ding Qiunan.
At this time, Li Chu came up from behind, holding a few sweets and handing them to the rain.
Rain looked at the sugar in front of him and shook his hand. "Brother Chu can’t help me."
Ding Qiunan said, "Take the rain for you."
Li Chu handed it forward again and looked at her rain. I was embarrassed to take it. "Thank you, Brother Chu!"
"You’re welcome, rain. Did you have dinner?"
"I’ve eaten Brother Chu." The voice rang just after the rain fell. A little girl was embarrassed to bow her head.
Ding Qiunan made a wink at Li Chu. Li Chu nodded and walked to the kitchen without saying anything. Ding Qiunan took the rain and sat down.
Li Chu came to the kitchen and saw that the briquette stove had not been extinguished, so he added some coal and didn’t cook again, so he warmed up the leftovers just now. When the food was hot, he continued to put the stove on the chimney to warm the bedroom.
I put the hot food on the living room table and said, "When the rain comes, you can eat something, and there’s nothing left. You just got to eat something alive and let your sister Qiu Nan do it."
Rain looked at Ding Qiunan and then at Li Chu. After saying thank you, he sat down at the table, picked up the steamed bread and began to eat it. If you look carefully, you will find that the rain eyes are red.
Li Chu sat on the sofa and picked it up, but she really didn’t have a mind. This little girl has 25 kilograms of ration food every month, so she can’t eat it. It’s impossible to be so hungry and so thin. This rain column doesn’t know how to take care of her sister.
The rain column class didn’t say that she would come back to cook for her sister, but she ran outside to drink by herself. On several occasions, people in the courtyard all slept before she heard that the rain column came back from drinking wine outside.
Before the rain, I didn’t eat lunch. An aunt can still take care of it. Now an aunt is pregnant and heavy. Plus, older pregnant women can take care of the backyard every day. It’s not bad for the old lady to eat. I can’t really take care of the rain.
Li Chu thought and sighed. Ah, this little girl is really a little poor.
Without much rain, I finished eating the food. Without waiting for Li Chu to speak, I ran to the pool table in the courtyard with bowls and plates to wash it.
Ding Qiunan has mended the bag for her after she put away the dishes and chopsticks.
Rain took the bag and looked at it. "It’s very kind of you to fill it up, Qiu Nan. Thank you, too. Thank you, Brother Chu." Then they both bowed.
Ding Qiunan helped the little girl up. "It’s all neighbors’ polite." He stretched out his hand and touched the rain head. "If no one cooks for you after the rain, you can come to my house to eat when I come back from your class with Xiao Chu."
Rain looked at Ding Qiunan and said, "Sister Qiu Nan, I can cook, but I came back today and found that there was no food at home and I didn’t have the money to buy it." Said the rain and lowered my head.
"Come to me if you need any help later. Go home quickly. It’s getting late," Ding Qiunan said to her.
"Thank you, Sister Qiu Nan, thank you, Brother Chu." Rain thanked them again.
Li Chu waved his hand. "Come on, rain, don’t mention it. Go back quickly."
After sending the rain away, Li Chu saw Blackie wandering around the door again. "Blackie wants to go to the toilet. This little guy is really clever. He taught it once and remembered Qiu Nan. Look, he hasn’t urinated anywhere in the house these two days."
Ding Qiunan looked at Xiao Hei, and he was so happy that he teased him with his foot. Xiao Hei also barked at her. "Come on, Li Chu, you should take him quickly. You didn’t look at it."
Li Chu just slipped the little black away and took it to the outside of the hospital, watching it solve before coming back together.
After coming back, the young couple went downstairs after washing.
Lying in bed, Ding Qiunan shrank into Li Chu’s arms and thought of the rain. He asked, "When is Rain Dad leaving?"
"I was the chef monitor of your factory before. I don’t know when I will leave. I was still in college."
"Then he’s such a good worker, wouldn’t he rather follow the widow than even their brother and sister?" Ding Qiunan asked her how to understand the practice of Rain Dad.
Li Chu thought for a moment and said, "I don’t know for what reason, but I have heard of an interesting saying."
"What statement?"
"When I was chatting with my uncle once, he said that his brother and sister had been looking for him once after they left, but he never saw them again. He said that he also heard others say that there must be something wrong with his family composition and he was afraid to stay in the 49 cities before running."
"Is there a problem with the ingredients?" Ding Qiunan was a little surprised. This is no small matter.
"Well, Yuzhu has always said that his family is a poor peasant. Fart, if their family is a poor peasant, it will be a ghost."
"How do you say? What poor peasants have problems? "
"During the Republic of China, their family was a citizen card in the city, and they always cooked for people in the city. When the children were determined after the liberation of the city, it was impossible for their family to be a poor farmer. It must be a craftsman, just like cleaning up the house for our family."
"Ah, there is this thing?"
"Oh, I said it’s a long night for my daughter-in-law. Why don’t we talk about other people’s homes? Come on, let’s do something beneficial to our physical and mental health." Then Li Chu turned his horse.
"Well, Li Chu, don’t … you have to go to bed early …"
