Love Chapter 46: A Visit to Aunt Kim
Qiu Feng gave birth to a daughter, she was very light when she was born, only four pounds and two taels, before she was born, Qiu Feng even thought of a name, her name is Gu Zemin, and her nickname is Doudou.
In this matter, Ah Mao Chang informed the law, but he did not go over to visit Qiu Feng.
There have been too many things in the past few days, and Teng Zhi has also gone home.
The person who took care of her confinement was Aunt Jin.
Aunt Jin is Jinyu's biological sister, she is the same as Jinyu, her hair is naturally curly, of course, Qiu Feng's hair is the same as Jinyu, it is difficult to take care of, but Jin'er does not follow Qiu Feng, her long hair reaches her waist, smooth and dark.
I have always had a mystery about Jin'er's biological father, but as long as I ask inadvertently, their eyes are dodgy, every time I see Jin'er, I feel that her demeanor, movements and temperament are slightly shadowed by her father, Jin'er's hair must also follow her biological father.
To be honest, the people I am most afraid of seeing are Aunt Jin, including Su Wei, and when she visits relatives during the holidays, what she is most afraid of is visiting Aunt Jin.
Aunt Kim spoke very verbosely, and as soon as she spoke, she was like a wild horse that had taken off the reins, and could not tame it. Because the relationship between Jinyu and Su Wei is not good, Aunt Jin will always point fingers at Su Wei and scold Huai.
I have the impression that visiting Aunt Jin is a once-a-year event, that is, on the evening of the second day of the Lunar New Year, we will visit Aunt Jin as a family.
We and Qiu Feng were divided into two teams.
Su Wei, Teng Zhi and I are in a team, and Qiu Feng, Wu Bing, Xinwen and Jin'er are in a team. Whenever it's something that is going to come together, we all "go our separate ways".
That night, Ah Mao Chang picked us up several times and took us to Aunt Kim's house. Even if we are a family, even if we meet or pass by, we will pretend to be strangers, we will not say hello, we will not say hello, and we will not sit in the same car together.
Aunt Jin's house is very remote, and there are no street lights on the way there, so Ah Mao Chang sent us to the intersection, so we got out of the car and walked to Aunt Jin's house.
The streets on both sides are full of people who set up stalls to sell vegetables, and they don't need to pay for the stalls, and the early birds have worms to eat. At night, the street outside the alley becomes a "bustling market", filled with all kinds of food, completely different from what is sold during the day. Some prepare charcoal fire and barbecue food in advance, one person is responsible for grilling food, and the other person is responsible for serving food; Some will use bamboo skewers to fill the food, cook it, and put it on a large white plate for display, people can choose the food they like, and then discuss the quality of the bamboo skewers to determine the price; Some of them are a tricycle filled with large wooden barrels filled with hot sesame paste, almond tea and tofu brain.
Everyone ate happily and didn't mind the noisy night market at all.
Su Wei won't let me eat these things. She said that it was very likely that this thing was a dead rat that was scooped up in the gutter, and then processed into meat skewers and then sold again, as well as the fragrant frying oil, I don't know how many times it was recycled. Every time I smell the smell of cumin from this barbecue, I can't help but walk forward and smell the tempting aroma.
Walking into that alley, the gray-black walls were covered with peeling lime, and there were some "psoriasis" stickers on the back, and the paste was very sticky, and I tried to tear off the paper that was sticking to the wall, but it was torn apart. Every time I walked around the corner, I was very scared, in addition to seeing Aunt Jin later, there was also a big yellow dog in the family, and whenever I approached her door, the big yellow dog would make a howling sound, as if to devour us, I subconsciously hid behind the adults.
Turn another corner and you'll arrive at Aunt Kim's house.
Aunt Kim's family has three families, and the other two houses are directly opposite her house. Even though there are three households, the average size is very narrow, and even the total area of all of them is not yet the size of my room. The decoration of her house is very simple, the roof is made of tiles, the ceiling on the top is made of plastic materials, sky blue and turquoise, and the floor has not yet been paved with bricks, so the slabs and bricks on the ground are frosted particles, and the soles of shoes are more abrasive when walking.
Every time I enter the house, the first thing I see is a picture frame hanging on the wall.
The photo in the frame is a photo of the law wearing a military uniform, as well as some photos taken as a souvenir when Jinyu was alive, and the difference this year is that there is an additional posthumous photo of Jinyu.
Directly opposite are two houses, one with a kitchen and washroom, and the other with a warehouse.
Aunt Jin sells vegetables for a living, so as soon as you approach her house, or talk to her, the smell of pickled pickles and pickled white radishes will clearly waft through her.
This time, we came early to visit Aunt Kim.
"You're here?" Aunt Kim welcomed us warmly, heard us talking in the alley, and came out to greet us.
Before I got to Aunt Jin's house, I already heard Jin'er's voice.
"They're coming so fast." Su Wei leaned close to my ear and said to me.
"Ah Zhi, why have you lost weight again." Aunt Jin made a gesture of wanting to cry and kept patting Teng Zhi's shoulder.
"It's just a part-time job, where can I have the luxury of eating and living." Teng Zhi smiled and shrugged his shoulders.
"Su Wei, you are really, when your husband comes home, he can cook something delicious, don't go hungry Ah Zhi." Aunt Jin complained and stared at Su Wei.
"Aunt Jin is good." I nodded and said hello.
"Okay, what's your name? Nan'er or Xi'er? Aunt Kim looked at me quizzically.
Even if my name is mentioned every year, my name is repeated again, but Aunt Jin always can't remember it, and she confuses my name again and again, confusing Nan'er and Xi'er together.
"Xining."
"Yes, you see I forgot again, come in and sit down, Xinwen and Jin'er have already come." Aunt Kim grabbed me by the back and pushed me towards the door.
"Sit down here."
Aunt Kim saw that we were standing still and didn't know where to sit, so she guided us to the front position.
"Sit here."
At this time, Xinwen and Jin'er were also sitting on this long wooden chair.
"Let's sit here." Su Wei found two small stools behind the door and placed them behind me.
I saw Teng Zhi sitting next to Jin'er, without a little mustard.
"Now that everyone is here, what's going on, what's going on in your family lately?" Aunt Kim sat down slowly, one hand on her knees and looked at us.
"It's all my fault." Xinwen frowned, her eyes lost.
"Don't say whose fault it is, why do you dare to provoke the black dragon?" Aunt Kim slapped her knees, shook her head, and sighed suddenly.
"Last month, he came to the tavern to look for his father, but he happened to be absent at that time, so I was put in charge of it, and as soon as the black dragon came, he asked me to pay the protection money, and I definitely won't let it, and then he took out a knife and put it in front of me to scare me." Xinwen used his hands and feet to make the movements and expressions that the black dragon intimidated Xinwen at that time.
"Then you let me take a stake in the Upper Nine Pavilions, on this road, not to mention the three major families of the Banjing Huayuan, the ten families will also give me the face of the black dragon, if you don't pay the protection fee, let me join the shares, and I will account for half of your shares in the Upper Nine Pavilions." Xinwen imitated the voice of the black dragon, not to say that it was not like it, as soon as she opened her mouth, her expression was very similar to that of a black dragon.
"Then he asked a younger brother to throw me a wooden box and left, and the words he said after he left were, see you in a month."
"As soon as I opened the box, it turned out to be stacks of banknotes, anyway, what he said was a month, I went to the gambling house first, thinking about turning over the book, and then telling my father about it, but I didn't expect that I couldn't hide it, until the tavern was sold, I didn't dare to say it." Xinwen said that tears flowed down her eyes, and she lowered her head and repented.
"I really knew I was wrong." Xinwen suddenly knelt down towards Aunt Jin.
"Don't get excited, this matter, fortunately, Ah Feng is fine." Aunt Jin quickly stood up and bent down to help Xinwen up.
"Auntie, calm down first." Jin'er also went over to help.
Su Wei gave me a look and told me not to speak.
"I will go over to take care of Ah Feng's confinement, you look for your father now, see how this matter is handled, and pay back the black dragon's money first."
"My father?" Xinwen's words that wanted to speak and stopped caught Aunt Jin's attention.
"What's wrong with Gu Zhilu? The head of his family, just throwing the money at you doesn't care about you? I'm so, useless man. Aunt Jin sat down suddenly, covered her stomach, and felt a pain that made Aunt Jin unsteady.
"He found a woman, we fell out with him, I can't go to him." Xinwen took a deep breath and said this.
finally let Aunt Jin say this.
"What? My sister died not long ago, and he found another woman here? Aunt Kim's angry eyes were smoking.
"I'm going to go to him and tell me, where does he live now?"
"Su Wei, have you ever seen that woman?" Aunt Kim looked at us.
"I've seen a very fat woman named Zhiying." Su Wei lowered her head and looked at Aunt Jin with a twinkle in her eyes.
"Why didn't anyone tell me about this?" I saw Aunt Jin holding her stomach and cold sweat on her face.
"Are you alright?" As soon as Su Wei wanted to get up, Xinwen helped Aunt Jin.
Aunt Jin held her waist and staggered into the door, one hand propped up on the wall and walked slowly, not knowing what she was tinkering with inside, looking through behind a curtain of the door, she was rummaging for something.
"This is Jinyu's relic left to me, a handkerchief, although it is not a valuable thing, but it was handed over to me when she was hospitalized, and said that I would keep it for her in the future, saying that this is a token he gave to Jinyu when he married Zhilu, she cherished it so much, he actually found another woman so quickly?" Aunt Jin supported the threshold with her hands, leaned her whole body towards the threshold, and cried with her hands for fear of covering her eyes.
"It's chilling." Aunt Kim kept pounding her chest.
"Don't get excited, pay attention to your body, I'll go to him, pay back the money first." Xinwen walked over and stroked Aunt Kim's back.
"Yes, aunt, pay attention to your body." Teng Zhi and Su Wei echoed the call.
This handkerchief is a white silk handkerchief, embroidered with a pair of mandarin ducks, and the names of Zhilu and Jinyu are tattooed on the mandarin ducks.
