Chapter 31: What the hell is going on?
Uncle house in early summer.
Lin Baojiang, Zheng Sanqiao, Liu Meiqing and Lin Chudong sat in a circle on the kang, the flames of the small kerosene lamp were the size of beans, and they jumped from time to time, reflecting everyone's faces flickering and darkening with a hint of gloom.
Xu couldn't stand the dull atmosphere, Lin Chudong went down to the kang and found scissors to cut off the burnt part of the wick, and the lights jumped violently, and the room was finally brighter.
"Alas......" Zheng Sanqiao exhaled a long breath and looked at Lin Baojiang, who was silently tapping the cigarette pouch: "Have you thought about it?" ”
Lin Baojiang's frowning brows relaxed slightly: "Although the old secretary has retired, his reputation is there, he supports Luo Gangshun so much, I think, let's take it slowly." ”
"Alas!" Zheng Sanqiao sighed a little heavier, "In early summer, I went to her grandmother's house today and came back, bringing so many good things, she didn't listen to it when she cried to death, but when she went out, she packed half a bag of dumplings for the Luo family."
It's a family, living in the East House and the West House, and it's like this before she gets married, if she really climbs Gao Zhi'er and gets married, can she still have us in her eyes? ”
"This matter" Lin Baojiang took a puff of cigarette pouch, "It can't be all blamed on early summer, how you and Meiqing squeeze Baohe Magnolia, I'm not ignorant of the way"
Zheng Sanqiao interrupted him: "Knowing that Lu Dao and Meiqing and I squeezed them, why didn't you stop them?" Don't start pretending to be a good person now, it's useless to pretend, no matter how much you pretend to be her, you can't kiss you. ”
Liu Meiqing, who had been silent, raised her head: "Dad, my sister has been kissing me since she was a child." ”
Lin Baojiang sighed faintly: "Early summer is my niece." ”
"Dad, I'm thinking about our family, if she doesn't get close to us in early summer, then no matter who she marries, she can't help us. My sister is different, I can pack a ticket for this. ”
Zheng Sanqiao immediately echoed: "You haven't seen that kid Meifeng, in terms of appearance, it's no worse than early summer, and we are also really close, his father, anyway, the relationship between early summer and Hongqi has been decided, and we are not harming early summer." ”
"Let me think again." Lin Baojiang was still a little hesitant.
"Don't think about it, it's too late for you to think about anything." Zheng Sanqiao pushed Lin Baojiang down the kang, "You go to your father's house and talk about it now, go quickly, they will fall asleep when it's too late." ”
"Bang dang!"
Hearing the sound of the deadbolt opening, Zheng Sanqiao hurriedly changed to push, "When they enter the house, you will come out." ”
Lin Chudong, who didn't say a word from beginning to end, got up and walked out. Liu Meiqing grabbed him: "Things don't have to be right, don't welcome them." ”
"I'll go to the toilet!" Lin Chudong said in a muffled voice.
Liu Meiqing pursed her lips and let go of her hand.
"Second uncle and aunt are back?"
Seeing that it was Lin Chudong who greeted him, the family of three was a little surprised, these days, whenever they entered the door, the first one to greet them must be Liu Meiqing, how did they change the direction of the wind today?
"Chu Dong, this is going to go out?" Zhao Yulan said with a smile.
"No, I'll go to the bathroom." Lin Chudong said as he walked out.
"Is your father and mother in this house or in the other room?" Lin Baohe asked.
"Baohe, I'm here." Lin Baojiang's voice came from the house.
"Big brother, sister-in-law"
Lin Baohe didn't want to be too stiff with his eldest brother's family, and on the way back, he discussed with Zhao Yulan in early summer, and wanted to understand tonight's affairs with his eldest brother's family, so he saw his father enter the threshold of his uncle's house, and in early summer, he hurriedly pulled Zhao Yulan back to his house.
She really didn't want to look at the faces of that family, whether flattering or contemptuous.
"Head Zhou and Instructor Zhou are really real people." Entering the house, Zhao Yulan couldn't help but babble again.
"Mom, you've said it more than ten times." Chu Xia shook his head funny, and after sending Zhou Mikang and Zhou Hanliang away, everyone went back to eat for a while before closing the table, but found twenty catties of food stamps under the bowl used by Zhou Hanliang.
"So many times?" Zhao Yulan laughed, "I don't think it myself." ”
"Mother, I told you something, you are not allowed to beat me." After hesitating, Chu Xia decided to hand over the food stamps in her hand, otherwise, she would not be able to spend them.
Zhao Yulan sat up straight: "Say it." ”
Chu Xia went to the door and looked out through the crack in the door, only then did he take out the food stamps from his pocket, seeing that Zhao Yulan's mouth was getting wider and wider, Chu Xia hurriedly stepped forward to cover it: "Mother, don't call it, I didn't steal it, I didn't rob it, I got it openly." ”
Zhao Yulan nodded, pulled down Chu Xia's hand, but her face was not very good-looking: "What the hell is going on?" ”
"Mother, about the recruitment of female soldiers, when Xiaoqiong and I were in the house, Instructor Zhou told us, and said that I should make up for my body, so I was given these food stamps, and Xiaoqiong also had them." To tell the truth, it definitely won't work, and early summer turned a corner.
"Why is he doing this?" Zhao Yulan looked suspicious, "Even if the Zhou family owes the old secretary a favor, there is no need to pay it back to you, is there anything else to hide from my mother?" ”
"My mother also told them that I met them in my grandmother's village and showed them the way, but when I came back, I met them again on the road, and they brought me back.
When they saw me walking with the things they brought from my grandmother's house, they guessed that our family was poor, and they chatted with me on the way, but I was alone at that time, and they didn't want to give me food stamps suddenly, did they? ”
After pondering for a while, Zhao Yulan nodded: "Yes." Then the circles under his eyes turned red, "It's all my father's fault."
Not again! Chu Xia hurriedly interrupted her: "Mother, don't say this, didn't you say it, don't you say it again, mother, tomorrow's market, let's go to the market, okay?" ”
Zhao Yulan said happily: "Okay, it just so happens that the work in the field has been done, I have to take a two-day break, let your father go to the market with us, and buy you delicious food." ”
"Knock Knock"
A slight knock on the door came, and Chu Xia was stunned: "When did my father become so particular?" As he spoke, he opened the door and saw Lin Chudong standing at the door with a worried face, smiling at her, and quickly flashed in.
"Hatsuto?" Zhao Yulan saw that it was Lin Chudong, and she was also very puzzled, this is a little bit, what is he running here for?
"Second aunt, early summer" Lin Chudong's face was flushed, and he was stunned for a while, but he didn't say a word.
Touching the small half-bag of dumplings that was forced back by the fat aunt, Zhao Yulan suddenly said: "Chu Dong, is the bolt hungry?" ”
"No, no," Lin Chudong touched his head, "I heard that Chu Xia is going to marry Hongqi, and I haven't congratulated the second uncle and aunt and Chu Xia yet." ”
"Chu Dong, what the hell is going on?" Zhao Yulan didn't believe it, Lin Baohe was in the house over there, congratulations, Lin Chudong didn't have to come here on purpose.
