Chapter 30: A Pair of Sneakers

His sweetheart was neatly dressed at all times, his body exuded a good smell of fragrant pancreas, his hair was combed neatly, his skin was as delicate and fair as that of the eldest lady in the city, and his hands were slender and delicate, as if he had done farm work.

And what about the man in front of him, hehe, it's hard to say......

At this time, the second and third sisters who went to school went home one after another, Qinglian was busy in the kitchen to make dinner, and her father helped to cook it together, but her mother never went into the kitchen.

But the second sister's words broke the apparent calm of this family. The second sister lowered her head and said with difficulty: "Dad, mother, tomorrow the teacher said that the school will organize a winter sports meeting, and everyone is required to buy a pair of sneakers." ”

"Sneakers!" He Hongshan gasped.

Wang Xiuli frowned. She said coldly: "Your eldest sister bought you all new cotton shoe cloth, and I was about to make it for you, but I don't have money to buy sneakers." ”

She is still angry that her eldest daughter took the money from selling eggs herself. She was still puzzled: Why did this eldest daughter suddenly remember to be in charge? And why did she agree in a daze?

The second sister Honglian's eyes became wet when she heard this, yes, how can the family afford to buy sneakers, and if she can afford it, she won't buy it for her.

"Second sister, when are you going to use sneakers?" Qinglian asked her sister brightly.

The second sister looked at the eldest sister in disbelief, and then muttered: "I will use it next Monday, there are still 5 days." ”

Qinglian replied lightly: "No problem, I will be able to put on your new sneakers on Monday." ”

The whole family watched her, where did she get the money to buy sneakers? Didn't she spend all the money from selling eggs? In another 5 days, I won't be able to save a few eggs.

Qinglian understood everyone's eyes, so she waved her hand and said, "Don't worry about it, leave this matter to me." ”

After that, he hummed a song and grabbed the corn grits one by one and threw them into the pot of boiling water.

At dinner, the family had their own agendas.

He Hongshan didn't get relaxed because of Qinglian's "package ticket", how could she get the money to buy sneakers. He began to wonder if he could go to the casino and win some money. But he was immediately discouraged, he didn't have a penny of gambling books, who would bet with him.

Wang Xiuli won't care about this, she can't afford to buy sneakers, so she can't participate in the games. She only thought about whether to divorce or not. Honglian was thinking about whether she could wear her sneakers, while Qinglian was thinking about how to make money, and she promised her sister that she must do it, she couldn't let her sister go without sneakers on Monday.

Wang Xiuli put down the chopsticks and said to her husband in a cold voice: "Someone has to take care of the livestock, you can still sleep in the livestock house." ”

Although she said this to her husband alone, Qinglian heard it. She felt a sigh in her heart: Did my mother really decide to divorce her father?

Don't worry, there are still a few days to go, if the mother really wants to leave, that's not bad, so that she can see the true face of that man earlier, and maybe she can change her mind.

I'm afraid that my father won't be able to accept it.

She looked up and looked sympathetically at her father. Daddy's face is wooden.

However, the most important thing at the moment is to give birth to my sister's sneaker money, a pair of sneakers is very expensive, it costs more than ten yuan, and she has 5 cents left in her hand, and there is a difference of 9 yuan and 5 cents, hehe.

After eating, the second and third sisters all gathered together to write their homework under the dim kerosene lamp, and the third sister was writing words, and she was writing and reading: ice, fish......

"Ice, fish!" Qinglian's mind lit up.

In her previous life, she learned the skill of catching fish in winter with her disabled and lazy husband, which was to pierce a hole in the frozen thick ice with a sharp weapon, and then shine a flashlight at the hole.

There is an old ditch behind their village, where there is water all year round, and there are many fish in it, and no one catches fish in winter.

She was almost jumping.

She told her father to go to Brother Qingjun, then hugged her head and face with a thick woolen scarf, picked up a flashlight and walked out of the house with a wooden barrel at home.

At night, she didn't dare to go to the ditch behind the village, and besides, she had to dig a hole in the thick ice, she really couldn't do it as a girl, so she went straight to Brother Qingjun.

Brother Qingjun is 6 years older than Qinglian, and he is already married and has a boy, but his daughter-in-law died of illness last year, how can he take care of the child as a big man, the child is raised by his grandmother, Brother Qingjun is very comfortable with the whole family not starving, and he refuses to marry again if anyone says matchmaker.

Actually, Qinglian knew his thoughts.

"Brother Qingjun!" She shouted as soon as she entered.

Qingjun was wiping his earthen gun, and when he heard his baby cousin shouting, he immediately flew out, listened to his cousin's words, and without saying a word, he loaded a bullet into the earthen gun and walked with his cousin.

Qinglian likes Brother Qingjun the most, as long as you call him, he will go with him, no matter how outrageous your request is. Catching fish late at night this winter is outrageous, right? But he didn't ask and followed.

The two of them walked on the path to the back of the village, and the moon rose up, and the thin crescent moon made the cold night even colder. Qinglian looked up at the starry night sky and the clear moon, and sighed that the night sky in this era is really pure.

"Qinglian, the rabbit meat last time was delicious, right?" Qingjun asked his cousin with a smile.

Qinglian nodded again and again and said that it was too delicious. Qingjun was very happy to hear this, so he said, "I will send it back to you after beating it again, and let the second uncle stew it for you to eat." ”

Qinglian hurriedly refused and said: "No, no, no, Brother Qingjun, we can't afford to eat this rabbit meat, you better sell it for money, Xiaodoudou still has to eat milk powder." ”

This kid doesn't eat well, and his grandmother hurts his motherless child pitifully, and he still eats milk powder when he is more than two years old.

Qingjun smiled and said nothing.

Qinglian quietly looked at her cousin, he was tall and strong, with dark skin, thick eyebrows and big eyes, he was a very handsome young man.

Feeling his cousin looking at him, he raised his eyebrows and looked at his cousin and asked, "Look at what your brother is doing, is your brother good-looking?" ”

Qinglian smiled mischievously and said, "Well, it's good-looking, the more I look at my brother, the better it looks." ”

"Hey, hey, hey." Qingjun laughed embarrassedly.

Qinglian asked him quietly, "Brother, have you been looking for her again?" ”

Qingjun blushed when he heard this, and made a posture to scorn her: "Don't talk nonsense, people are widows, and they value their reputation." ”

Qinglian Baileng glanced at him and said: "Fame can still be eaten, if you want me to say that she is a fool, what age is she still paying attention to good women not marrying second husbands, and what are you afraid that children will look down on her in the future, hum, a tragic woman who is poisoned by old ideas and bad habits." ”

Qingjun was silent when he heard his cousin's words, he sighed and said: "Who said no, but she has a tendon, saying that she has in-laws and sons, and if she remarries, she will be laughed at, and her in-laws and mother's family have instilled in her the idea that she can't marry again, and her brain has been instilled by them." Cut, what do you do with all that bullshit, I'm only 24 years old, can I just stay up until I get old......"

He was also full of resentment when he mentioned her.
