Chapter 10 Returning to the Su Family
Shuangqiao Commune, Shuangshui Brigade, the Su family at the end of the village.
The old door creaked, and Su Qianqian walked in with Su Qingyue.
Before Su Qianqian could speak, Su Qingwu put down his hoe and strode to Su Qingyue to pick up the luggage. His voice trembled, "You, you are the second sister."
Su Qingyue's eyes suddenly turned red, "Brother, it's me."
Su Mingqiang was tremblingly helped up by his little daughter. Su Qingyue walked over quickly. She wiped her eyes and called, "Father, little sister."
Su Mingqiang stared at Su Qingyue for a long time. It took a long time before he said in a choked voice, "Just like your mother, it will be good when she comes back."
"Father, are you feeling better? I'll take you to the county seat tomorrow."
"It's an old habit, why are you messing around."
Su Qingxi looked at this beautiful sister whose features resembled those of her mother, and said with a cry: "Sister, you are so beautiful."
Su Qingyue looked at her sister. The little girl was only thirteen years old, her skin was a little yellow from the sun, and her big eyes were extremely bright, with tears in them.
Su Qingyue felt extremely distressed, "Why are you crying? My sister has brought you clothes and skin care products. You can't work in the sun from now on."
Perhaps because of their blood relationship, the two became close instantly.
Su Qianqian rolled her eyes. Su Qingxi was a greedy person. She liked to be lazy when she was young, and she was not close to her at all. Now she and Su Qingyue looked like sisters when they first met.
"Uncle Su, now that Su Qingyue is back, you will have a good reunion, and I will leave first."
This sound made Uncle Su distance everyone all of a sudden. Su Mingqiang felt a chill in his heart and Su Qingwu was a little embarrassed.
Sister-in-law Li Zilan thought Su Qianqian was jealous, so she quickly went over to hold her hand and said, "Qianqian, this is your home too. Hurry up and pack for dinner. Your elder brother specially cut the meat."
Su Qianqian took out her hand and said, "No, sister-in-law, I am an educated youth going to the countryside and I will live in an educated youth home. I will return to the city next year."
Li Zilan was stunned and didn't know how to answer the question. Su Qianqian had already left the courtyard.
Su Qingwu thought of Su Qianqian's previous actions and immediately waved his hand, "Qingyue is back, let's eat."
Su Qingyue smiled and greeted her sister-in-law, and then helped serve the dishes.
The food was served, fried potato slices with black bean sauce, fried meat with chili, scrambled eggs with leeks, and finally a cold wild vegetable, which Su Qingyue didn't recognize.
The staple food was rice with white flowers. Su Qingxi swallowed with greed as she looked at the food that could only be eaten during the New Year.
A little boy ran back from the gate smelling the aroma of rice. He looked at Su Qingyue with his round eyes and asked shyly, "Are you my aunt?"
After speaking, he sniffed his nose and blew out a bubble.
"Pfft"
Su Qingyue couldn't hold back her laughter. Li Zilan's face tightened and she was about to spank her son if he caught her.
Su Qingyue stopped her quickly, tilted her head and smiled, "Sister-in-law, I just think of myself when I was a child, and I often had a lot of fun."
"Zhuang Zhuang, go wash your hands first and then come back to eat. Auntie will give you a reward later."
Su Zhuangzhuang grinned, ran to the basin with his short legs, washed his hands and face, and sat down at the dinner table obediently.
"Mom and Dad, are you celebrating the New Year today?"
Su Qingwu glared at his stupid son and said, "We welcome aunt home."
Zhuang Zhuang swallowed his saliva and said, "Auntie, please don't leave in the future, so that the family can eat white rice and meat every day."
Su Qingxi said, "Silly Zhuangzhuang has a beautiful idea. The rest of the white rice eaten today can only be eaten during the Chinese New Year."
Su Qingyue was heartbroken when she heard this. It turned out that they were living such a difficult life.
She put meat into bowls for Zhuang Zhuang and his sister, "Father, eldest brother, sister-in-law, we will be the same as before when I come back. We will eat whatever we have."
"When things are sorted out, I'll see what I can do and help the family share some of the burden."
The family felt warm and sweet after hearing this. Su Qingyue looked spoiled, but she didn't have the temper of a young lady, and she was easy-going and approachable when getting along with her. Li Zilan was very pleased, as long as her sister-in-law doesn't mind being poor and loves being rich.
She was busy picking up food for Su Qingyue, "My mother passed away at the beginning of the year, and my father has a bad back.
Qianqian took two hundred yuan when she left home. After a series of events, her family had no extra money to buy refined rice and noodles.
But it’s okay, as long as we keep our minds in one place, we can live a good life. ”
Su Qingyue smiled sweetly, her eyes firm and optimistic, "Okay, listen to my sister-in-law."
Su Mingqiang and Su Qingwu didn't talk much, and they kept picking up food for Su Qingyue.
Su Qingyue felt warm in her heart. After the meal, she opened the two wooden boxes and took out a pile of things.
"Everyone has clothes. I asked Qianqian for the size. If it doesn't fit, my sister-in-law will help you change it."
Li Zilan carefully touched the blue Bragi in her hand, "The needlework is easy."
Su Qingxi gestured with a yellow floral bragi, her face flushed with excitement, "I also have a bragi. I heard that one costs dozens. I have to wait until I get married before wearing it!"
Su Qingyue laughed out loud, "When you get married, you won't be able to fit into this dress anymore. Wear it if you want. I'll buy it for you later."
Su Mingqiang and Su Qingwu were each wearing Chinese tunic suits, and both of them were reluctant to wear them, with uncontrollable happiness in their eyes.
Zhuang Zhuang was young, so Su Qingyue bought him two sets of clothes, and the little guy immediately changed into them.
Su Qingyue opened another box and took out two boxes of malted milk, one pack of fruit candies, three packs of White Rabbit toffee, two packs of chicken cakes, two packs of biscuits, three boxes of chocolates, and three bags of bread.
Zhuang Zhuang couldn't see it anymore, he rushed over and hugged Su Qingyue's thigh, "Wow! Aunt! Can I eat White Rabbit toffee every day?!"
The little guy's voice was split with excitement, "Auntie, you are so good! Don't leave, you will stay at our house from now on!"
Li Zilan was so embarrassed by this kid that she spanked him twice and said, "You brat, this is your aunt's house!"
Su Qingyue couldn't laugh or cry, pinched Zhuang Zhuang's face and stuffed a candy into his mouth, "Auntie won't leave!"
She then opened the non-staple food and distributed it to everyone, "Sister-in-law, you put the rest away."
Li Zilan smiled and nodded, "There are many non-staple foods, so we can't eat them all at once. We have to live day by day."
Su Qingxi ate the White Rabbit toffee, and the sweet taste filled her heart.
"Qingyue, you and Qingxi live in the same house. If you are tired from the car ride, take a nap first."
The sheets and quilts looked freshly washed and smelled of the sun. "Sister-in-law, I'm not tired. I want to see my mother.
I went to the county town again to pick up the package. ”
Su Mingqiang wiped his eyes, "Yue, don't worry, we will go to your mother's grave together when we are fifteen."
The sister-in-law nodded, "The bus to the county town leaves at six o'clock every morning. The tractors are only used by the commune when there is something wrong."
"You can ride in the Pei family's bullock cart if you pay, but that rough guy has a bad temper."
"Sister-in-law, I know. I'll ask you later."
Su Xuanwu told Hao Zhuangzhuang to take his aunt around, and the family went to the fields to earn work points.
Su Qingyue asked Zhuang Zhuang to lead her to Pei's house and walked to the door of the thatched house. Zhuang Zhuang stepped back and said, "Auntie, please knock on the door. Pei Huaiye is so fierce that I'm scared."
Su Qingyue saw that this thatched house was even worse than the Su family's mud house. How could anyone live in it?
After talking to Zhuang Zhuang for a long time, I found out that Pei Huaiye had a bad relationship with his family and lived alone in a thatched hut.
She knocked on the door for a long time but no one answered.
Pei Huaimei passed by with Pigweed on her back, and her eyes widened when she saw Su Qingyue.
This is the first time a woman has approached his brother, and she is such a beautiful woman!
