Chapter 37: Liu Jia's comeback

Maybe I didn't sleep well at night, I woke up at half past seven in the morning, I hurriedly got up for Yangyang hot milk, steamed eggs, dressing and washing face, after feeding Yangyang a full meal, I didn't care about dressing up, hurriedly went downstairs, and rode him to the kindergarten. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

When I came to the gate of the kindergarten, I saw that the gate was closed, and there were few people around, and I was wondering, but the uncle who watched the gate came out and told me that today was Saturday and that I was resting! Only then did I wake up, and it was Saturday and Sunday again, not only did Yangyang not have to go to kindergarten, but I also didn't have to go to work! I was so confused that I didn't even know what day of the week it was. But the thought of being able to rest today makes me ecstatic, and the unexpected good thing is that it makes people more excited than knowing in advance, and it feels like an extra gift from God.

So what are you going to do today? Take Yangyang to the park to play? Or take him to his grandmother's house in the countryside? Go to the countryside, I haven't been back to my parents' house for two weeks.

I turned around and took Yangyang back home. I took out the roast chicken that I didn't care about eating last night and put it in a plastic bag, and then went downstairs to buy a big watermelon for my mother outside the community, put these things in the front frame of the bicycle, and took Yangyang on the road.

As soon as we walked out of the community about 100 meters away, I heard someone shouting my name behind me, and when I looked back, I was very surprised, it was Liu Jia! I got off my bicycle, stopped on the side of the road, and watched Liu Jia come with her son, and I didn't know how to greet her for a while.

"Where are you going?" Liu Jia spoke first.

"I'm - just wandering around, it's nothing. "I'm just afraid that if something happens, Liu Jia will walk away.

"If you're okay, let's find a place to sit for a while. Liu Jiadong looked around, trying to find a suitable place for the two of us to chat.

"Go to my house!" I said, and immediately pushed up the bicycle and took Liu Jia back to the community.

I saw that Liu Jia's face had returned to her previous smile, but her body was thinner, her face was not as smooth as before, and she looked a few years older. And his son Kai Kai has grown significantly taller.

Back home, I cut a watermelon for Liu Jia to eat, and Yangyang also enthusiastically took out his animal combination toys to entertain the little brother.

"Still living with your mother?" I asked Liu Jia carefully, just afraid that I would accidentally touch her sore spot.

"I'm gone, I'm renting a house in the city. Liu Jia said.

"It's good to come back, Kaikai should go to kindergarten too. I said.

"Yes, I should go out to work too, I can't let my mother support me all the time. Liu Jia's smile showed a hint of helplessness.

"What are you going to do?" I asked.

"I don't have any plans, I can commute to work normally, but there are a few stores that recruit salespeople, but I won't be allowed to go home at noon, so I won't be able to take care of Kaikai." Liu Jia looked at me and said.

At this time, I suddenly remembered that Lu Tao said two days ago that their insurance company was recruiting people again, so I said to Liu Jia: "How about the insurance company? The working hours of the insurance company are more flexible, the salary is linked to the performance, and the more you do, you can earn more, if you pull a big customer, you can rest for half a month." ā€

"Okay, I'll go to the insurance company and ask in a moment." Liu Jia nodded and said.

"You don't need to go, just let Lu Tao help you ask, he works in the insurance company, and their unit is recruiting people these days. As I spoke, I immediately got up and took the phone to paged Lu Tao.

While waiting for Lu Tao to call back, Liu Jia and I talked a lot, and I said more naturally some words of encouragement and comfort, but Liu Jia was concerned about the things between me and Lu Tao, she advised me to cherish everything now and live a good life with Lu Tao. Hearing this, I still clearly felt Liu Jia's pessimistic disappointment and longing for Wu Tian. In fact, after Wu Tian's accident, I have also rethought my life many times, so I don't divorce Lu Tao easily now. Although Lu Tao still has a lot of disappointments for me, and it still often makes me sad, I understand that the two of us are not completely emotionless, it is not that we can't spend a day together, but a feeling of hating each other. I hope that one day we can grind into two identical pieces of iron or steel.

But seeing that the hour hand was pointing to twelve o'clock, Lu Tao hadn't replied to the phone yet, Liu Jia got up to leave, and said Come back in the afternoon, I forced them to stay and didn't let their mother and son go, under the pretext that I wanted to eat stuffy noodles and wouldn't let her help me.

I ate the stuffy noodles made by Liu Jia once at her house, they were so delicious that they had reached the level of my mother-in-law, and the stuffy noodles were as thin as cow's hair, not dry or wet, soft and delicious. I also often make stuffy noodles at home to eat, but every time I make stuffy noodles, the stuffy noodles are either too hard or too wet, and there are a few times when I add less water, the base is mushy, and the whole pot smells burnt.

This time, I was in charge of washing the beans, and Liu Jia was in charge of mixing and rolling the dough, and she taught me her experience while helping: "The stuffy noodles must be hard to match, so that they can be rolled out thin and finely cut, and they will not stick together when they are stuffy in the pot." If you are worried that the noodles will stick together, put a few drops of sesame oil on the cut noodles in the pot and stir them, put the noodles in the pot when the beans are ripe, sprinkle a small amount of water on the noodles every five minutes, and they will be ready to come out of the pot in 20 minutes. ā€

With Liu Jia's help, I finally ate top-notch stuffy noodles at home, and with roast chicken nuggets, it was even more delicious.

Lu Tao didn't go home for dinner at noon, nor did he return the phone, and after Liu Jia and I took care of the two children for a nap, we paged him a few times in a row.

"Is Lu Tao usually so busy?" asked Liu Jia.

"It's not too busy, pull the insurance work, if you want to pull a few more customers, just be busy, if you don't care about making less money, just rest more, and control the workload yourself, as long as you meet the minimum requirements of the insurance company. I said.

"Then it seems that Lu Tao has pulled a big customer today. Liu Jia said jokingly.

"Not necessarily, maybe he went out to borrow money from his brother. I said.

"Borrow money?" asked Liu Jia curiously.

"Yes, his younger brother is getting married, and my mother-in-law wants to buy a new building for his second son, but when I married Lu Tao, my mother-in-law only gave us an old building to live in, and when I was confined, she kicked me out. I suddenly recalled the sad things I had before, and said to Liu Jia angrily.

"Don't say that, times are different, if you go back to the time when your parents got married, you didn't have to get married for a hundred yuan. Liu Jia persuaded me.

"That was decades ago, but it was only three or four years ago that I married Lu Tao?!" I still feel that I have been treated unfairly.

"Didn't I advise you to be tolerant just now? Injustice is everywhere in this world, there is no absolute fairness, on the other hand, suffering injustice is also a manifestation of your own lack of ability, if you also said at that time that you would not marry if you didn't buy a house, wouldn't you have suffered such injustice?" Liu Jia analyzed it for me from both positive and negative aspects.

"I'm embarrassed to ask for a house, and in that case it feels like I'm auctioning myself. I said.

"It's not enough, people are different, soft-hearted people often get less, even if they get it, they may give it away, so don't complain anymore. ā€

I didn't think Liu Jia had such depth before, probably because the understanding of people who have experienced a catastrophe will increase dramatically.

The two of us were lying on the bed with the two children, chatting and falling asleep, until Yangyang got up to go to the toilet, Liu Jia and I woke up, and it was already five o'clock in the afternoon.

Liu Jia asked Kai Kai to drink a cup of hot water, and then was about to take Kai Kai home, and at this moment Lu Tao finally came back.

"Yo, Liu Jia is here!" Lu Tao hurriedly greeted Liu Jia as soon as he entered the door.

"Yes, you just came back?" Liu Jia responded.

"Yes, I drank with a group of comrades in the restaurant at noon. Lu Tao said.

"Why don't you call me back?" I asked.

"After drinking, I went to the song hall to sing, and the song hall of the hotel was very noisy, and I couldn't hear the pager at all. Lu Tao explained.

I didn't ask anything more, one was because Liu Jia was present, so it was not good to dig deeper into Lu Tao, and the other was that since Lu Tao could confess that he went to the song hall to play, it means that he really drank too much, otherwise he would not admit it to me.

Just when Lu Tao was half-awake and half-drunk, I told him that Liu Jia also wanted to work in the insurance company, and asked him to go to the insurance company tomorrow to consult and register for Liu Jia, and Wu Tian agreed very happily.

While we were talking, Kai Kai came over with a cartoon album of Yangyang, and he pointed to the words on the cover and asked his mother: "Mom, is this 'Zhu Bajie eating watermelon'?"

"Yes, that's right. Liu Jia patted his son's little face and said with satisfaction.

"Does your son know how to read?" I asked Liu Jia in surprise.

"Yes, he can already recognize a thousand Chinese characters, during the time when my mother lived at my mother's house, I taught Kai Kai to read and count every day, and also learned dozens of English words, and now Kai Kai's learning level is no problem in the first grade of primary school. Liu Jia said proudly, it was the first time in half a year that I had seen her smile so happily.

"Wow, that's great!" I was even more amazed.

"Whoever is like you knows every day that you let your child play and learn nothing. Lu Tao on the side saw that his wife was inferior again, and blamed without saving face.

"I didn't teach Yangyang to read, didn't you teach either?" I retorted.

"Don't say that, you two, Yangyang is already one year younger than Kai Kai, he is still studying early, and it is not too late to study next year. ā€

At this time, Yang Yang came over with a sad face, I asked him what was wrong, and he said that there was a leopard missing from his animal group!

Is there a leopard missing? I, Lu Tao, and Liu Jia began to search the whole family, and checked under the table and bed, but no! Liu Jia also searched Kai Kai's pocket, but there was none. I had to comfort Yangyang and say that I would buy him another one another day, but Yangyang just didn't do it, crying for his leopard!

Just when we were coaxing Yang Yang to be happy, the little star on the other side knocked on the door and came in, I thought of the animal combination that Xingxing and Yang Yang had played together last night, so I asked Xingxing:

"Xingxing, tell Auntie, have you seen your brother's leopard?"

"Nope. The star shook his head.

I suddenly had an idea, and changed my words: "Xingxing, if you help my brother find the leopard, Auntie will give you this lion." As I spoke, I lifted the beast, the fiercest beast in the animal group.

As soon as the star saw the lion that was more powerful than the leopard, his eyes lit up, and he said that he would look for it, and when he had finished speaking, he went back to his house, and in a short time the star did take back the lost leopard, and I made good on my promise, and gave the lion to him, and said to him:

"Xingxing, remember that if you want to play with your brother's toys in the future, you must talk to your brother, you know?"

"Got it. When the star had finished speaking, he took the lion and went back to his house with joy.

"Are you recovering the leopard and losing the lion?" Lu Tao was not satisfied with my approach.

"These toys are not worth a few dollars, you can buy another set, but to teach this child integrity, his parents are not very educated, and may not teach much in this area. I said.

"Yes, Swift is right. Liu Jia said a word for me.

Seeing Liu Jia standing on my side, Lu Tao didn't say anything more. Next, Liu Jia left my house with Kaikai. (To be continued.) )
