Chapter 21: Door-to-door (1)
The next day, Qin Hou appeared at Mei Li's house wearing a new set of clothes, carrying two large bags of gifts in his hand, mainly food and the like, including fruits and meat.
Meiya Island knew that Qin Hou was coming, so he asked for leave with the foreman in advance, and specially planned to receive Qin Hou at home.
Mei Li stood at the door and introduced, "Hello, uncle! This is my dad. ”
Meiya Island said to Qin Hou at a loss: "... Ahem.. Are you the father of Shaotian? Hello! Come on! There is no need to break the bank, we poor families don't know how to entertain you. ”
Qin Hou looked at the black and thin Meiya Island, he didn't expect that such an ordinary man would actually cultivate two college students, and he felt a sense of admiration in his heart.
He replied humbly: "Where, I didn't buy anything, I just bought some things on the street, and I don't know if you and Lili like to eat it." ”
Mei Yadao listened to his words and hurriedly took the things in his hand: "You are too polite, please come in and sit." ”
As he spoke, he used his sleeve to dust the dust off his chair.
Qin Hou sat down on the chair, he glanced around the Mei family's house, on a simple platform in the middle of the hall, there was an old-fashioned radio and a small black and white TV, which might be a little more valuable to their family
Mei Yadao looked at Qin Hou's somewhat surprised expression, and sat opposite with self-deprecation and said, "There is nothing at home, which makes you laugh." ”
Qin Hou heard this and hurriedly said: "Where, I heard Shaotian say that it is not easy for you to pull two children to grow up by yourself!" Moreover, there are very few college students in the countryside, and your family actually reads two, which is all your credit! ”
Mei Yadao listened to Qin Hou's words, and his heart was moved, and he rarely shed two cloudy tears.
He wiped his tears and sighed: "Alas! I don't have anything, and I'm not afraid of hardship, but my two children have suffered a lot, and they have not had their mother's love since they were young, and they are much more pitiful than other children. ”
At this time, Mei Li took the cup of tea she had brewed and handed it to Qin Hou, Qin Hou looked at Mei Li who was generous, and he took the teacup in his hand and did not drink it.
He also said politely: "I drank a lot at home just now, and now I really can't drink it, don't be busy, sit down, I have something to discuss with you and your father today." ”
Mei Li listened to Qin Hou's words, and couldn't help but get nervous again.
Hearing this, Mei Yadao hurriedly asked for her daughter: "Do you have something to say, how is he okay?" ”
Qin Hou's face also showed sadness at this time, he put down the teacup, turned his head to look at Mei Li and asked, "Shaotian hasn't been home for a long time, you know?" ”
Merry's eyes widened: "... Uncle...... Why is that? Nothing happened, right? He hasn't been to our house for a long time. ”
"Hmmm! I'll just tell you the truth! It was from the time he went home and told us that your illness was cured, and his mother said that she wanted you to go to a big hospital for a re-examination and only marry him after the diagnosis, but he didn't agree when he heard that sentence, and he went to the company to eat and live, and never went home. ”
When Mei Li and Mei Ya Dao heard this, they both looked shocked, and felt that Bo Dongai was a person who liked to be suspicious.
Mei Li didn't speak, but her father Mei Ya Island said first: "Shaotian's father, I am a coolie, you look younger than me, but you are older than me, I will call you brother." Since you have come to our house to tell you what happened, then I will also tell you what my family thinks, and I will not let my daughter have anything to do with your son from now on, and I promise that she will break off with your son cleanly. ”
Looking at the angry Meiya Island, Qin Hou looked a little embarrassed: "No wonder my son didn't dare to come and tell you, he was just afraid that you would have ideas, so he left home and went to the company and didn't come back." ”
