As a matter of routine, Lu Yuanzheng finally asked Fu Jingyou about his work situation.
Fu Jingyou answered truthfully.
Lu Yuanzheng seemed to be weighing something. He stared at Fu Jingyou for a long time and asked:
"If you and your wife are separated for a few years due to work or other force majeure reasons, would you be willing? ?”
That’s a bit inappropriate, Lu Yuanzheng added:
"It's not like we can't see each other for several years. We can still see each other on New Year's Day and in the middle of the year."
Fu Jingyou didn't know why he asked, but he answered very decisively:
"Qian You can earn less and save less "Yes, if my job changes, I can make some money to rent a house, or my employer allocates a house, I can take Miaomiao and my children with me." "The reason.
But he has a clear idea that the family must be together.
Lu Yuanzheng nodded and stood up with the enamel jar:
"Call me when the meal is ready."
As he spoke, Lu Yuanzheng went upstairs again.
"..."
Seeing his tall back disappearing around the corner of the stairs, Fu Jingyou felt a little uneasy in his heart.
He and Miaomiao have been separated for several years...
What does this sentence mean?
Tang Mei finished cooking and called Lu Yuanzheng to come down for dinner.
Afterwards at the table, Lu Yuanzheng said nothing.
Supper was dull.
The night passed in panic.
Fu Jingyou woke up the next day, and there was a thin layer of snow in the courtyard again.
A faint layer of man's footprints remained in the snow. Lu Yuanzheng had been out for a while.
When we met yesterday, Lu Yuanzheng looked a little thinner, but his mental state was not bad. There should be no major problem.
Fu Jingyou feels relieved about the situation here.
At home, Fu Jingyou, worried about his wife and daughter's situation, couldn't stay in Beijing any longer, so he mentioned buying tickets that day.
There were many things going on during the year, and Tang Mei was afraid that Lu Miao would be stressed out raising two children alone in the south, so she did not persuade him to stay longer.
Just waiting for Fu Jingyou to buy the ticket and come back, Tang Mei received a package for him alone.
In addition to the ones Tang Mei bought along the way when she was shopping for new year's goods that day, there are also some that she usually tinkers with.
They are all for Lu Miao and her two children.
In addition, Tang Mei handed Fu Jingyou a heavy stack of oil-paper packages.
You can't see anything inside, but it's square like a brick, wider than a brick, and not as hard as a brick.
Fu Jingyou took the massage and felt it, and roughly guessed what it was.
Tang Mei said: "This is what your father told you before he went out. You go back and study hard. In the future, you will be able to compete with Xiaobao and come to the north together with Xiaobao."
Fu Jingyou was slightly stunned. Afterwards, he realized what the previous conversation his father-in-law meant with him.
What he always thought was that he might have been transferred away due to work reasons, thus being separated from his wife and daughter.
It turns out that my father-in-law’s concern is that if Lu Miao is admitted to the city in the future, he may not be able to transfer.
Yes...
The job can be transferred, but who can be sure that he will be transferred to Lu Miao's side?
The safest thing is to take the college entrance examination together.
Fu Jingyou hugged the stack of books tightly, his eyes deep.
My father-in-law did not reveal any information directly, but the hint was very obvious.
"Aunt, I won't let you down."
Tang Mei patted his back and said nothing.
Fu Jingyou set off from home on the fifteenth day of the twelfth lunar month, and on the twenty-first day of the twelfth lunar month, he rushed back from Beijing.
The four o'clock train arrived at the county seat of Province H at eight o'clock in the morning on the 22nd day of the twelfth lunar month.
The bicycle was stored in the courtyard of the county office. Fu Jingyou went to pick it up from there. It was a bumpy ride home, exactly ten o'clock.
Tian Zao had breakfast here and helped look after the children. He waited until Lu Miao had tidied up the house before leaving. Fu Jingyou parked his bicycle at the door, carried the box and pushed open the half-open door.
There was a stove burning in the main room, and Dabao and Dabao were sitting in the fence, babbling and playing.
Lu Miao had a small sewing basket in her arms. She had just finished adjusting the stove damper and had not yet had time to pick up the needle and thread again.
She straightened up, with a gentle smile on her fair face, and reached out to touch Erbao's black little head.
It's freezing cold outside, but the heating in the house is so warm and cozy.
But looking at the scene in front of him, Fu Jingyou felt inexplicably indebted.
Lu Miao, who has a high level of education, should not stay at home and take care of her children.
She should also have her life ideals.
"Ah, ah, dad..."
Er Bao rushed to the door, Lu Miao tilted her head, her smile was like a camellia blooming in winter.
Bright and beautiful.
"I guessed that you would be back in the next two days. Have you eaten? I stewed the ribs on the stove."
Lu Miao put down the small basket and stood up to pick up the luggage from the man's hand. However, the man avoided him. He wrapped his other hand around his waist and took her into his arms, kissing the side of his face several times.
"Don't make trouble, the Dabao and the second treasure are still there."
"They don't understand."
The box fell heavily to the ground, Fu Jingyou pinched Lu Miao's waist and let it go She locked her legs and crossed her waist, hooking her like a woodpecker, kissing her again and again.
“The day when the college entrance examination will be resumed is not far away. Capital University is re-taking... Miaomiao, from now on you go to the capital to go to university, and I will go there to find a job again and stay with you, okay? ”
"What are you talking about? You won't take the exam with me?"
"I mean, suppose I don't pass the exam."
Although Fu Jingyou can read, he has never gone to school seriously. experience, I feel really unsure.
On the way back, he thought about a lot.
The worst outcome is that Lu Miao passes the exam but he fails.
The subtext of the father-in-law's words is that he has a good job and can stay in Xixian temporarily to develop his work first.
When we meet in the middle of the year or at the end of the year, the topic is that Lu Miao is on vacation from school...
He is here alone and has no way to take care of the children. When the time comes, not only Lu Miao but also two others will leave. A child.
Fu Jingyou always puts family first.
He couldn't accept this arrangement at all.
He finally wanted to warm up his little home, his caring wife, and his lovely children. He didn't want to leave any of them behind.
"When the time comes for me to find a job again, the worst thing I can do is start from scratch. I will be more serious, work harder, and be more practical..."
"In one or two years, or three years, it will definitely be enough. I can make a name for myself.”
Fu Jingyou was worried about gains and losses, not only reluctant to separate, but also afraid of dragging down Lu Miao.
“Just trust me, Miaomiao.”
Lu Miao could vaguely guess that the elders in the north of Beijing must have said something to Fu Jingyou, so he behaved like this.
“Of course I believe you.”
Lu Miao put her arms around his neck and kissed his sexy lips.
“Don’t be unconfident. Let’s review together and we will definitely pass the exam.”
“It doesn’t matter even if you don’t pass the exam. Studying is not the only way out in this world. It’s still early. Here you go...don’t worry too much, huh?”
"Yes."
Fu Jingyou nodded, with a smile on his lips, but there was still worry in his brows.
Lu Miao picked up the meaty part and served him a bowl of pork rib soup, asking him to wash up and take a good rest after eating.
Let’s talk about other things after we get some rest.
