Chapter 113: An Army of Fleas
The next day, after Lu Hao and Xiao Yun went to the supermarket to buy large bags of things, they went straight to the station and got into a van bound for Lamimo Village.
Along the way, Lu Hao's mood was extremely complicated, he wanted to take his wife to meet his family as soon as possible, but he was also afraid that Xiao Yun would be disappointed when he saw the situation at home.
And Lu Hao's parents, when they learned that Lu Hao was going to return with their daughter-in-law who had never met, were happy. Early in the morning, I called relatives and friends to help, killing chickens and cooking, so it was not lively.
It's a pity that Tiangong is a little unpretty, last night suddenly came to the interest, arranged a rain that is not too small, after the guide Xiao Yun got out of the car, when he saw the muddy road, he had the idea of where to come and where to go.
"Dad..."Seeing Lu Haijin, who was standing on the side of the road and came to pick them up, Lu Hao hurriedly greeted him.
"Give me everything..."Lu Haijin took off the basket on his back, took the things in Lu Hao's hand and put them in.
Lu Hao pushed Xiao Yun in front of Lu Haijin: "Dad, this is Xiao Yun..."
"Hello uncle..."
Lu Hao reminded: "Xiao Yun, you should be called 'Dad'..."
Xiao Yun's little face was a little red: "Dad..."
Lu Haijin nodded with a smile, and wiped his hands on his mud-stained pants in a restrained manner, before taking Xiao Yun's bag: "I'll take this too..."
Carrying the heavy basket, Lu Haijin walked silently in front of the two. And Lu Hao is responsible for supporting Xiao Yun, who is struggling.
The road was full of stagnant water and thick yellow mud, Xiao Yun wore a pair of sandals with a middle heel, and when he stepped on the mud, he either couldn't stand on his feet slippery, or his shoes were stuck and couldn't pull them out.
It was originally a fifteen-minute journey, Xiao Yun walked for more than half an hour, and several times if it wasn't for Lu Hao's appeasement, she really wanted to turn around and go back.
When they came to the courtyard of Lu Hao's house, everyone looked at this fashionably dressed and outstanding-looking girl, and they all showed a look of surprise. How could such a girl be willing to marry into their poor village?
Surprised, I had to envy Lu Hao's good fortune. Some people secretly sweated for him, such a beautiful daughter-in-law, can Lu Hao really keep it?
Xiao Yun, whose feet were covered in mud, didn't bother to recognize any relatives, just smiled and looked at everyone, then took off his shoes and asked for cleaning.
"You sit down first, I'll go fetch water for you..."Lu Hao knew Xiao Yun's cleanliness, and hurriedly brought a small wooden stool to her, and then ran to the kitchen to fetch water.
At this time, a woman with kind eyebrows came over and picked up the shoes that Xiao Yun threw aside: "I'll help you wash it..."
The woman walked away with her shoes, and when Xiao Yun said the word "no", she had already entered the kitchen.
Lu Hao said hello to his relatives and friends briefly, and came out with water, Xiao Yun asked curiously, "Who is the aunt who took my shoes away just now?" â
"She's my mother..."Lu Hao squatted in front of Xiao Yun and reached out to wash her feet.
Xiao Yun retracted his feet embarrassedly: "Don't... I'll wash it myself... So many people are watching..."
"I'll help you... There is mud on your feet, and I'm afraid you won't be able to wash it..."
When Lu Hao helped Xiao Yun wash his feet, Ye Ju also came out with his cleaned shoes.
"Thank you, Mom..." Xiao Yun took the shoes with both hands, a little reluctant. This first meeting will make my mother-in-law wash her shoes, and my mother-in-law must be very uncomfortable...
Ye Ju didn't say anything, just smiled and nodded, turned around and went back to the kitchen to work.
Xiao Yun put on his shoes and asked worriedly, "Lu Hao, don't your parents like me?" I called them, and they didn't agree..."
"No... Don't be cranky... Mom and Dad just don't talk much..."Lu Hao took Xiao Yun's hand, "Let's go... I'll take you to the house first, and I'll introduce you to other relatives later..."
Looking at the two-story building in front of him, Xiao Yun really didn't want to go in. The low adobe houses, with their old double-opening wooden doors, dusty glass windows, and shiny black walls, were more dilapidated than the houses they had seen when they went to the students.
Seeing Xiao Yun's embarrassed face, Lu Hao froze: "If you don't want to go in, just sit in the courtyard for a while..."
"Let's go in..."Since he is married to Lu Hao, how can he dislike his family? Xiao Yun pulled Lu Hao into the house, and the little boy who was watching a cartoon in the house quickly stood up and looked at Xiao Yun stiffly without speaking.
"This is my sister's son, called Awen..."Lu Hao reached out and touched Awen's head, "Don't you call 'aunt'..."
Arwen screamed timidly, and then ran out with a puff of smoke.
"This guy is still so timid..."Lu Hao tidied up the messy sofa and asked Xiao Yun to sit down, "You sit down for a while, I'll also deal with the mud on my shoes, and I'll come back soon..."
"Hmm..." After Lu Hao left, Xiao Yun looked around the entire living room, except for two shabby sofas, a wooden table and an old TV, it was really a home.
Xiao Yun looked around boredly and found that there were two bedrooms in the whole house, one was full of food and miscellaneous items, and the other room was placed with two wooden beds, and the bedding on the beds was dirty, as if no one had used it for a long time.
There is a compartment behind the TV in the living room, and inside is a wooden staircase leading to the second floor. Walking to the staircase and looking at the second floor of the black hole, Xiao Yun felt a little eerie and terrifying, and hesitated to go up to have a look.
"Xiao Yun, don't go up..."Lu Hao came back with a glass of water, and when he saw that Xiao Yun wanted to go upstairs, he hurriedly stopped, "There is a pile of millet on it, there is nothing to see..."
"Oh..." Xiao Yun didn't really plan to go up, walked up to Lu Hao, and asked, "Isn't there any other house at home?" â
"Hmm..."Lu Hao put down the cup and held Xiao Yun's hand with some concern, "Xiao Yun, my family is like this, you won't dislike me and regret marrying me, right?" â
"This is really ...... It's old..."Xiao Yun patted Lu Hao's hand soothingly, "However, we can tear it down and rebuild it..."
Lu Hao sighed: "I'm also thinking about this, but I don't have so much money on hand now, let's save some money in a few years..."
"It's fine... I ...... money."
Lu Hao knew what Xiao Yun wanted to say, so he hurriedly interrupted her words and made his position clear: "No... I can't use your money... And it's your parents', it's not yours... Since you are married to me, I will shoulder the affairs of the family. â
"Well... You're the head of the family, and you're in charge... Then let's take out a loan to build a house, and then the two of them will pay it back with their salaries together, right? Xiao Yun saw that Lu Hao still wanted to object, so he made a final decision, "It's so decided... Let my parents live a better life as soon as possible, this is also our filial piety..."
"Xiao Yun, thank you..."
"Fool... Hurry up and help in the kitchen, I'm almost hungry..."Xiao Yun pushed Lu Hao out of the door, and he sat on the sofa to study how to use the remote control of the old-fashioned TV.
As soon as Lu Hao entered the kitchen, everyone gathered around and asked Lu Hao about Xiao Yun's situation:
"Ah Hao, where is your daughter-in-law?"
"Bihai City's..."
"Hao, what does her family do?"
"Her parents and brother are both businessmen..."
"Yo... That's a rich man..."
"Not really... Just a little business......"
During the meal, Lu Hao solemnly introduced everyone present to Xiao Yun, what aunt, second aunt, uncle, cousin, cousin, a lot of cousins, Xiao Yun was dazzled, and after a while, he couldn't tell who was who.
However, everyone is very enthusiastic, eating and drinking, chatting at the same time, having a good time, giving people a very warm feeling of home.
After eating, Lu Hao helped the family with farm work, and Xiao Yun had nothing to do, so he had to nest on the sofa and play with his mobile phone boredly.
In the yard, Ye Ju and a few women were washing dishes and vegetables. Seeing Xiao Yun, who didn't do any work when she went home for the first time, a woman muttered dissatisfiedly: "Ah Hao's daughter-in-law is really lazy, and she doesn't know how to help her mother-in-law..."
Lu Hao heard someone say that Xiao Yun was not, and his face was a little unpleasant: "Cousin, Xiao Yun can't do housework, let alone work, so you should take care more..."
"I didn't expect Ah Hao to love his daughter-in-law so much..."Cousin Lu Li's face was full of mockery.
"Ali, that kid is from a big city, he doesn't know how to do housework and nothing, as long as he is good to Ah Hao..."Although Ye Ju helped Xiao Yun speak, she couldn't help but discount Xiao Yun's love in her heart.
If the daughter-in-law can't even do housework such as laundry and cooking, won't the son be very hard in the future?
As he was talking, Xiao Yun's exclamation suddenly came from the room: "Lu Hao, come quickly... Lu Hao ......"
When Lu Hao heard this, he was startled, threw down the work in his hand and ran into the house: "Xiao Yun, what's wrong?" â
"Just now there was a little black dot crawling on my lap, and as soon as I reached for it, it was gone." Xiao Yun stretched out his hand and gestured, "It's the size of a sesame seed." â
"That's supposed to be a flea." Lu Hao understood as soon as he heard it.
"Fleas?" Is there still such a thing as zĂ i? Xiao Yun was stunned.
"Then the red bumps on my body must be its masterpiece, right?" Xiao Yun held his mouth and lifted his clothes to show Lu Hao.
Seeing that red spots of different sizes appeared on Xiao Yun's arms, thighs, and stomach, and there were scratches on them, Lu Hao was distressed: "Why didn't you tell me earlier?" â
"I thought it was my skin allergy, but I didn't expect it to be bitten by a flea..."Xiao Yun scratched the red bump on his arm, and pouted his little mouth and blew, "It's so itchy, what should I do?" â
Lu Hao rummaged through the cabinet and found a small red pill box the size of a coin: "First smear some 'cooling oil' on the pimple, and it will be fine soon..."
After applying the medicine, the itching pain is indeed reduced a lot, the skin is cool and silky, and there is a strong mint smell, which is very comfortable.
Lu Hao put away the medicine box and said, "Follow me to the back room, take off your clothes, I'll help you catch those fleas, and it won't itch..."
"You...... You mean, I have more than one flea on me? Xiao Yun's eyes widened, and he suddenly felt creepy. Could it be that an army of fleas has set up camp on itself?
Lu Hao nodded, afraid that Xiao Yun would be bitten by fleas again, and said, "If you change all the clothes inside and out, I will soak them in the water, and the fleas will be drowned." â
"And what if other fleas jump on me again?" This method is not a cure for the symptoms, not the root cause... Do you have to change your clothes all the time? "Or ...... Let's go back to the Fuyuan community..."
"How's that going to work? We had just come back and were in a hurry to go. The people in the village will gossip..."Lu Hao put his arm around Xiao Yun's shoulders and pleaded, "I'll take some medicine in the house later, the fleas will all die soon..."
"Well... That's the only way..."Xiao Yun nodded helplessly, and he was distressed that Lu Hao had been living in such an environment...
