Chapter 142: She Became Their Benefactor
"You're going to have to come over again, or you're embarrassed to come over for your dinner. Du Muhao joked with Mrs. Hua.
When Zhu Junmei heard this, she said very generously:
"Then I'll go over and cook first, and I'll come back later, and invite you to dinner. ”
After that, he smiled happily.
Du Muhao watched Zhu Junmei and them walk out of the hall, and then told Li Xinke in a low voice: "I heard that their boss, Mr. Shu, is the brother-in-law of Tu Yiming's girlfriend." That person is also the nephew of Yan Jia's grandmother, Professor Shu, and the family is rich......"
"Mom, you asked my sister and me not to take care of other people's affairs, why do you care?" Li Shanshan grinned and asked Du Muhao.
This question made Du Muhao unhappy.
Shanshan, this child, used to be relatively well-behaved. Since Shanshan followed Coke and went to the city to play a few times, she has become a mouthful.
What point of view do you mean, Shanshan thinks there are different opinions, and I want to tell you.
Sometimes you say a few words, she feels that she has been wronged, and she has to tell you in person.
This made Du Muhao feel that Shanshan, the child, was not as sensible as before. looked at Li Shanshan with serious eyes and asked:
"Elders speak, why do you want to talk back?"
Li Shanshan looked at Du Muhao with aggrieved eyes and said, "I just told the truth, is it also called backtalking?"
Li Xinke reached out and patted Li Shanshan's shoulder and said, "Apologize to my mother." ”
Li Shanshan was very unhappy, but in order not to make her mother angry, she still whispered: "Mom, it's me who is not good, I'm sorry." ”
So he went into the bedroom, took some of the clothes he had changed, put them in a large iron basin, and took them to the well to wash them.
When Li Shanshan walked out of the living room, Li Xinke whispered to Du Muhao:
"Mom, my sister has grown up, and I'm still a little sensible......"
There are some things that we don't tell her, even when we're at home. But when she goes to school, she will also learn some things from other classmates.
You say, you can still follow her all the time, supervise her, and don't talk about other people's affairs?
The last two sentences, Li Xinke didn't say anything good to Du Mu. However, Du Muhao himself guessed what Li Xinke wanted to say to her.
Just say it truthfully:
"I understand what you say. I don't let you take care of other people's affairs, and it's for your own good. Because we said at home that we were used to it, and when we went out, we would be careless, so we continued. In this way, it is inevitable that people will overhear it. At that time, once it is spread out by others, it will be easy to provoke right and wrong. ”
In this regard, Du Muhao has a deep understanding. That's why Li Xinke and Li Shanshan are persuaded like this.
Li Xinke nodded and said:
"That's it. ”
She understood her mother's kindness. I also understand that some rights and wrongs are inadvertently invited. It's better to have less than more.
Du Muhao bent the index finger and middle finger of his right hand, gestured to Li Xinke, and said:
"Let's continue with the conversation. The jobs you found for Zhuzi's uncle and aunt, they are very satisfied. They are not tired from work, and the wages of the two husbands and wives together, together they have more than 3,000 yuan a month......
Du Muhao emphasized again, "The two of them can earn more than 3,000 yuan a month!"
"That's the money that my uncle and aunt earned by themselves. It doesn't have much to do with me helping them introduce them to work. The corners of Li Xinke's lips hooked up a warm arc and said.
"I also want to go to the construction site and cook for the workers. Find a boss to take care of food and housing, and a construction site close to home, go to cook, and earn some wages. Du Muhao looked at Li Xinke with some expectant eyes and said.
Li Xinke heard Du Muhao mention this, so she said truthfully: "Mom, actually, Yan Jia told me a long time ago that he wanted to introduce you to a job." It's just that I didn't promise ......"
Du Mu listened to it and understood Li Xinke's thoughts very well.
I also know in my heart that her body, doing farm work at home, is not as good as before. If one day he faints again, the boss will have to hire someone to cook for the workers......
After thinking about it, he smiled and explained:
"Coke, that's all I mentioned. Don't take it personally. In fact, the crops grown by our family are enough for our family to eat. The money from the sale of potatoes and the money from the sale of pigs is enough for our expenses. ”
Coke and Shanshan's tuition fees are earned by Coke herself.
At this point, Du Muhao still admires Li Xinke.
The mother and daughter sat in the hall and talked for a while. Du Muhao said to Li Xinke: "Keke'er, I'll go get some pigweed first." After a while, when it is eleven o'clock, you and Shanshan will go over for dinner early. ”
"Okay, Mom. ”
Li Xinke nodded and replied with a smile.
"Your grandfather and grandmother may not come back until dinner. For today's dinner, let's make more dishes, so that we can invite Granny Hua and her family to come to our house for dinner. ”
As Du Muhao spoke, he stretched out his finger and pointed to the fruits and non-staple foods on the wooden table. Said to Li Xinke:
"You see, the two husbands and wives of the sons, as well as the two husbands and uncles, will send us some gifts every week. If we let us buy those gifts ourselves, we will also need money......"
Li Xinke smiled knowingly and said:
"That's, that's. ”
Du Muhao put on his gloves, took a sickle, and went out with a bamboo basket.
Eleven o'clock sharp.
Li Xinke and Li Shanshan arrived at the neighbor's house on time.
Standing at the door, the neighbor's big yellow dog hurriedly ran, wagging its tail happily.
Li Shanshan reached out and touched the dog's ear lightly, and said:
"Good, good. ”
There was cheerful laughter at the door.
"Haha, hahaha. ”
After this burst of laughter fell, Hua Siyuan's father walked out and personally welcomed the two sisters, Li Xinke and Li Shanshan, to the living room to sit.
On the coffee table in the living room, several plates of fruit are placed. There are apples, there are fragrant jiao, and there are red dates and August melons.
Hua Siyuan invited Li Xinke and the two sisters to eat fruit, walked to the TV cabinet again, grabbed some loose biscuits, put them on an empty plate, and invited the two sisters to eat.
"Wow, I heard from one of my classmates that her relatives recently traveled to the ancient city of Lingyan. In the scenic spot over there, like this August melon, it can be sold for 12 yuan a catty. ”
Li Xinke said.
Hua Siyuan divided August to Li Xinke, as well as Li Shanshan, and said:
"That's in the scenic area, it's so expensive. With me, I don't need money. This is what I picked up in the mountains after work, when I was idle. Your aunt also said that I, when I'm full, I have nothing to do, go pick some August melon, and have a ...... to eat."
"Haha. Li Xinke listened and smiled awkwardly.
Here in Meiling Village, sometimes I go to the mountains to pick wild mushrooms, and I can pick August melons to eat. In the eyes of the people here, August melons are everywhere, and they are not a rare item in the first place.
But in the eyes of the people in the city, August melon is a fruit with high nutritional value.
In the previous world, Li Xinke went to the scenic spot for a meeting, and he specially wanted to buy some August melons and share them with his family.
Because August melon is a fruit, rich in sugar, vitamin C, and more than ten kinds of amino acids, the nutritional value is extremely high. It is still a real pollution-free green food that grows in the mountains.
