Chapter 12: Big Brother Comes Home
Time is very fast, and in such a flash, the New Year is getting closer and closer. During this period, Qian Duoduo wanted to call Zhao Minhui several times, but he just lifted the phone and put it down again, but he still didn't have the courage.
Perhaps, it was just a drunken prank by the other party that day. After experiencing the last failed relationship, he was a little scared inside.
"Second brother, your brother said that he was here this afternoon, you can pick it up!" said Yang Huifang, who was cooking in the kitchen.
"Okay, I'll go after lunch!" In the final analysis, it is caused by inconvenient transportation, every Chinese New Year, people who come home from work outside, need to go to one or two to help with luggage at home.
After lunch, Qian Duoduo set off slowly, taking a flat pole with him. Anyway, he said that it would only arrive in the afternoon, and he was not in a hurry.
"Jingle bell..."
A ringing of the mobile phone disturbed his interest in watching the scenery, but when he saw the caller displayed on the phone, he didn't dare to answer it, and when the mobile phone rang for almost ten times, he mustered up the courage to answer.
"Class leader, what are your instructions for finding the little one?"
"Idiot, are you going home?" Zhao Minhui's resentful voice came from the other side.
Qian Duoduo can't figure it out, but it's not the time to care about it. Then he replied, "It's been a few days!"
"Don't call me when you go back, you irresponsible man, hum!" At this time, Zhao Minhui's tone rose by eight points, quite murderous.
"Damn, class leader, you have to speak with your conscience, I cheapened you that night, and it should be you who said that you were irresponsible!" Qian Duoduo said confidently.
"Fuck off, when will the old lady take advantage of you... Honk... Toot toot..."
As soon as I finished listening to half of the sentence, before I finished speaking, a busy tone came from the phone. Qian Duoduo had no choice but to call back, but the line was still busy, so he had to send a message and continue to hurry.
Finally, it took him two hours to get to the village, which was originally less than an hour's road.
"Teacher Qian, Teacher Qian, this way!"
Hearing that someone seemed to be calling himself, Qian Duoduo looked around, and finally on the other side of the street, he saw his eldest brother, Qian Jie, and there was a woman standing next to him, about one meter six tall, about twenty years old, not to mention outstanding, at least it is also a good-looking type, it seems that it should be his future sister-in-law, Qian Jie often mentioned it to him on the phone, saying that he found him a sister-in-law younger than him.
But he didn't say that he would take it home for the New Year. Burying the doubts in his heart, Qian Duoduo walked over.
"Brother, sister-in-law is good!" Qian Duoduo greeted with a smile.
"Yo, our teacher Qian, it's much more handsome, you can!" Qian Jie looked at his younger brother carefully, and lightly punched him in the shoulder, he only saw him once a year, and occasionally saw his face on the phone and video, but only during the New Year, he could see me, and he was happier than anyone else in his heart that his younger brother could eat public food.
The woman next to Qian Jie shyly whispered a "Hey!" and didn't speak.
"Look at me, I forgot to introduce it, my brother has a lot of money! Your sister-in-law, Xu Mei!" Qian Jie said simply.
"Let's go, let's go home first, I guess, if the family knows that you brought your sister-in-law home, they can't even smile from ear to ear, and they won't even say anything, and they won't be prepared!" Saying that, Qian Duoduo tied the luggage of the two of them to the two ends of the flat shoulder.
"What else do you want to buy at home?" asked Qian Jie.
"No, it's the New Year in two days, and we'll talk about it then!" After speaking, he picked up his luggage and headed home.
Along the way, Xu Mei only said a few words to Qian Jie, and then concentrated on dealing with this mountain road. It can be seen that it should be a person who rarely walks the mountain road, and after walking a few steps, he stopped to rest for a while.
It was originally an hour's journey, and Qian Duoduo estimated that it was a question of whether he could get home before dark. Of course, he didn't dare to complain about anything, he didn't see Xu Mei sweating profusely and insisting on walking, and she didn't turn around and run, which was already good.
"Little brother, your sister-in-law has it, so slow down!" Seizing the opportunity, Qian Jie whispered in Qian Duoduo's ear.
This is a bit too much information, Qian Duoduo was stunned for a while, and then asked with a surprised face: "Really?"
"Really!" Qian Jie nodded affirmatively.
"Okay, great, haha, it's really you!" Qian Duoduo was very happy, the third generation of the Qian family had reached the age of being urged to marry, and his brother was directly in place in one step, and the fourth generation had it, which was indeed good news.
In the final analysis, he is afraid of being urged, and now that he has the boss on top, he has nothing to do. Since the last time my mother said that she would save money for him to find a daughter-in-law, during this time, he was worried about living at home.
The three of them continued to hurry, and Qian Jie looked at Xu Mei's appearance and felt distressed.
"Sister-in-law, thank you for your hard work, it will be fine next year, this road will be completed in March next year, and it will be open to traffic by then." Qian Duoduo said.
"It's okay, it's just a few steps!" Xu Meiwan smiled and said.
By the time they got home, it was already getting dark, and they could only see the road vaguely.
"Grandpa, Mom and Dad, who do you see coming?" Before entering the door, Qian Duoduo yelled excitedly.
"You bastard, isn't it your brother who is back, what are you yelling about!" Qian Weiguo said dissatisfiedly. Despite what he said, he came out.
When I went out, there was a woman next to my eldest grandson, who was suddenly not calm, and hurriedly shouted into the house: "Mingsheng, Huifang, come out!"
"What's wrong Dad!" Hearing her father-in-law's shout, Yang Huifang hurriedly came out, thinking that something was wrong, and when she saw that her eldest son was still followed by a woman, she didn't react to what was going on for a while. How could there be a woman, my brain didn't react for a while.
"Oh, you two bastards, let the girl come in, it's really, it's not sensible!" Yang Huifang, who reacted, hurriedly walked over, took Xu Mei's hand, and walked into the house, with a happy face that couldn't be concealed.
Qian Duoduo's father came a little late, but after seeing his daughter-in-law pulling a girl into the house, he understood what was going on. So he hurriedly walked to the chicken pen, grabbed a big rooster, and raised the knife in his hand, clean and neat.
The Qian family ate a little late for this meal, but everyone had a smile on their faces. Especially after Qian Duoduo told Yang Huifang about his sister-in-law's pregnancy, the smile on his face became even bigger.
As soon as dinner was finished, Yang Huifang hurriedly went upstairs to make the bed for her eldest son, and the sheets and quilts were all replaced with those originally intended for Qian Jie's wedding, which were bright red and very festive.
At nine o'clock in the evening, Qian Jie took Xu Mei upstairs.
"Wa Dad, Xiaomei is from Xujiazhai, do you see this?" Seeing her daughter-in-law go upstairs, the smile on Yang Huifang's face at this time had faded, and she was more worried.
"Xujiazhai?" After Qian Minsheng heard this, his face became solemn.
"What's the matter? there's a problem here?" asked Qian Duoduo uncertainly.
"You don't understand, this is a problem left over from the elders, in short, it means that Xujiazhai belongs to a wealthy village, and has always looked down on our side, I heard that the bride price for marrying a daughter is at least 380,000, a lot of money, where can our family get so much money!" Yang Huifang became more and more excited.
"It's really not good, I'll let go of this old face!" Qian Weiguo said in a deep voice.
But there is a sentence, Qian Duoduo didn't ask, although I don't know what kind of connections my grandfather has, but you, a veteran of the Anti-Japanese War, a comrade-in-arms who have not been in touch for many years, suddenly went to borrow money from others, can they give it to you.
