Chapter 69 It’s all the lunch box that caused the trouble
After wandering into the middle courtyard, there was a figure under the locust tree of the Jia family. If he looked carefully, he saw that it was Sister Qin. When he saw Qin Huairu, so did Silly Zhu. It's very contradictory. I was borrowed five yuan and ten pounds of sticks just a few days ago. If I hadn't been a cook, I wouldn't have enough food this month.
My sister’s words are still in my ears, and the people under the tree have already floated over. It’s really not easy for Sister Qin, and I know it, but I really have a lot of help. If I hadn’t made some family dinner, I would have The pockets were also empty.
Qin Huairu didn’t speak, but quietly looked at Shazhu with her big eyes. Her eyes under the moonlight were full of sadness. Although it was dark, the temperature had not dropped yet, and Shazhu felt obviously hot. .
A while passed. The two of them didn't say a word. They just looked at each other. Qin Huairu slowly stretched out her hand towards the lunch box. By some mistake, Silly Zhu involuntarily handed it over.
"Thank you Brother Zhuzhu, I will thank you very much when Dongxu comes out."
The people left long ago, Silly Zhu woke up and saw that his hands were empty, forget it, this section of Sister Qin's house Time is very hard. A woman has to take care of her elders at home, and look after her younger ones at the next. She is still pregnant, and the family has no income. She also has to take care of Brother Jia. Give it all to them, just add a few extra dishes.
Silly Zhu glanced at Jia's house, the lights turned on, and there were several surprises. Aren't you surprised? It's so rich. Most people can't get it during the New Year.
......
"Lao Yi, there is one bag missing of coarse grains at home. Did you send it to Jia's family again?"
Yi Zhonghai nodded, picked up the big enamel cup and took a sip of tea. It was a bit bitter because he put too much tea leaves.
"This is not a long-term solution. There is a big hole in the house. There are four people in their family. We can't support it just by relying on our family."
< br>Yi Zhonghai let out a long sigh.
“One mistake will lead to eternal regret. At that time, we had to pay all the compensation money directly. How can such things happen now? I regret it to death, and there is Dongxu’s mother, this old Pixiu, it is really harmful. I'm so miserable."
Shaked his head, his face full of disbelief.
“I really didn’t expect that she could just let go of her own son.”
When Yi Zhonghai said this, he felt a little excited and couldn’t help but lightly pound the table a few times. His face was full of annoyance and frustration.
The aunt quickly stepped forward to stop him and held the uncle's hand.
"Lao Yi, don't hurt yourself. It's not worth it. It's not worth it. I think this Cuihua thought Zhu Xuefeng was just scaring her. As the saying goes, that mother doesn't care."
"But we still have to think of a way. It won't be a problem if this continues. Don't help until the end. We will still be hungry."
...
Yi Zhonghai’s eyes were red and he looked a little scary.
“If Lao Jia hadn’t grabbed my hand tightly before leaving and entrusted their whole family to me, or if I hadn’t been afraid that I wouldn’t be able to explain it to Lao Jia a hundred years later, I would have wanted to let go. I really can’t. Get up.”
Looking at her helpless wife, the aunt felt so distressed that she held her husband’s head and massaged it gently.
After a while, Yi Zhonghai seemed to feel a little better, and his eyes slowly returned to clarity.
"You said, how about we convene another hospital-wide meeting to raise donations for their family? Money, food, and oil are all fine, but we have to wait until Dongxu comes out."
...
Qin Huairu suppressed her greed and put down her lunch box. Now it was ready. She had meat and vegetables for several days. They were all good things that she had never seen before.
When I came back after pouring Banggeng's foot washing water, I saw Banggeng squatting on the kang with a piece of meat in his mouth and still chewing it.
"Banggan, what's in your mouth? How do you eat it secretly? Leave it to tomorrow and the day after tomorrow. You can eat it for several days, you ignorant child."
There was a pain in my heart. It hurt that the child had not seen any meat during this period and his chubby little face had lost a lot of weight. It also hurt that the child was ignorant and was about to go to bed. He even ate it secretly. It would be better to save it until tomorrow.
When I opened the lunch box, I saw that the first box was gone and only a few side dishes were still there. I quickly looked at the second box and gasped. There were only a few shrimps left and the meat was gone.
Look at Xiaodang, his mouth is also oily. It’s over. The two children have eaten too much again. They will be admitted to the hospital soon. Their hands and feet are cold for a while, and their expressions are dull.
Seeing my mother’s appearance, Bangge was also frightened.
"Mom, what's wrong with you, Mom, what's wrong with you." Qin Huairu woke up from her trance, hugged Banggan's head, shed tears, and whispered in a crying voice.
"My son, you two really don't have a long memory. You secretly eat so much that you have to go to the hospital soon."
"No, Mom. , grandma ate it, and we all endured it at first, but grandma ate all the top ones and opened the bottom ones. My sister and I only ate a few pieces. Grandma said, we eat breakfast and dinner. "
Qin Huairu felt dizzy, and her heart was bleeding. This mother-in-law was really...
Jia Zhang stopped pretending to sleep before Qin Huairu could speak.
"Isn't that the truth? Eat early and eat late. It's all in the stomach. What's the difference? I'll go to bed first. His wife, you've been tired for a day, so take the child to bed early."
Qin Huai Ru looked at the lunch box and saw a few shrimps that were particularly dazzling. Tomorrow, her mother-in-law would have to sweep the streets, so she probably wouldn't be able to keep these shrimps.
Henhenxin picked up the lunch box and pulled out the shrimp shell while the two children were stunned. His finger was pricked by the shrimp head sword and blood flowed out.
Qin Huairu put her finger into her mouth with an expressionless face, and sucked gently. The faint smell of shrimp entered her mouth, which was so fragrant.
The three peeled shrimps were quite large. Qin Huairu picked up two of them, stuffed one into each of the two children's mouths, then put the last one into his mouth, chewing it gently...< br>
Early the next morning, Jia Zhang’s curses were heard from the Jia family in the Intermediate Court, and the loud curses resounded throughout the hospital...
Why did this crazy woman curse again? Daughter-in-law...
...
In the past few days, the courtyard has returned to peace. The half-grown children have stopped making noises when they come home from school. They probably go home to do homework and review. Xu Damao didn't go to the countryside anymore, and he didn't make any noise when he saw Silly Zhu, and just slipped away and hid away.
Seeing Xu Damao's cowardice, Silly Zhu lost his temper to ridicule. Occasionally he would bring a lunch box to Qin Huairu, but the frequency was obviously reduced. Qin Huairu also seemed to have something to do and rarely washed at the sink. Clothes, on the other hand, always go out.
Zhu Xuefeng's life was also very regular. He would have breakfast with his brothers and sisters, then go their separate ways. They would do basic skills in the morning, practice in the afternoon, review and draw a few pictures in the evening, but he slept later and later.
Everything seemed harmonious, except for the occasional scolding and scolding from the mother-in-law to teach the little boy a lesson.
After cycling home from practice in the afternoon, I have to prepare dinner before my younger siblings go home. This is the main task during this time.
"Hey, Uncle Liu, why are you back so early today."
Pushing the cart into the outer courtyard, I met Uncle Liu who was also collecting the cart and going home.
"Today, I met a mover. From morning to now, I ran six or seven times. It's OK. With his old arms and legs, he won't be able to bear it anymore."
Uncle Liu is in a good mood. It seems that he has had a good day. He is resting after completing a task. You can't be greedy in this industry. You will be exhausted in one day and will not be able to recover for many days. It is not worth the loss for a small gain.
"What you said is right. We have to live this life day by day, and the water must flow slowly. Okay, I'm going in. You have a good rest."
"Zhu Xuefeng is back, hurry up and go home Well, there is a guest at your house, saying he is your classmate, and there is no one in your house. He is teasing your fish.”
I met the third aunt who was going out to take out the garbage, and learned that there was no one at home. Classmates are here.
Entering the courtyard, several classmates were playing in the water in front of the fish tank. The one squatting in front of Aunt Zou and chatting was probably the school committee member Liu Jiaqi.
"Xiaowen, Zezi, why are you here? School is out early this afternoon?"
These are Zhu Xuefeng's two childhood friends. They are usually very close to each other, but these few There are not many people here, they are all reviewing, and I am too embarrassed to hang out.
"Xiao Feng is back, let me give my brother a hug."
The three of them were laughing and hugging each other, which was the excitement only for teenagers.
"You just can't see the girl, right? You don't pay attention to such a big two. You really shouldn't be here today."
