Chapter 10: Rumors Begin

Ming Hao looked at Li Qiufang, who was in tears, and called Mom dryly.

Li Qiufang took her hand, gently brushed her hair with a concerned face, and stuffed a hot egg into her hand, "Does it hurt or not, sit down and help you roll, such a big bag is bruised." ”

Li Qiufang is a woman in her forties, with short ear-length haircuts, a pigtail tied with a hair ring on her head, a navy blue shirt and pants, and patches on her elbows and knees, which is not much different from the women of this era.

In Minghao's impression, his mother-in-law is by no means the kind of weak person, in my memory, someone muttered that Minghao, a fat man, marrying Chu Tiankuo is to burn high incense, the Chu family is unlucky or something, Li Qiufang can go back in person.

How can a widow living alone with a pair of children and a weak person survive?

But she is very good to herself, and now, it is just a sentence of caring for an egg, but Minghao feels that her nose is sour.

She is just a daughter-in-law who is completely high in the eyes of outsiders, but she is treated like a daughter.

I have already told Chu Tiankuo that I will continue to live here, so I naturally know how to repay the favor, "Mom, how can it be so delicate, just use hot water to compress, don't worry, the eggs are left for Achu to eat." ”

Li Qiufang looked at this daughter-in-law and was even more satisfied, she pulled Ming Hao to sit down under the bench under the eaves.

"Minghao, don't worry, eggs are expensive things, our family can't afford to eat them, we also inquired about the little soldier who sent Tiankuo back, Tiankuo just came back to recuperate, he was injured at work, and he also received money every month, Achu went to school, and I also went to work in the machinery factory, only we lived in this warehouse, so you suffered." Li Qiufang said sincerely,

Ming Hao was stunned, and he didn't know which tendon was wrong, so he didn't want to think about it, so he said, "Then let's go back." ”

As soon as she finished speaking, she began to regret it, but there was no way to take back the water that she spilled when she said it.

Li Qiufang's face stiffened, and said: "It's all my own family, and I won't hide it from you, Grandpa Tiankuo's side has always felt that I have defeated his father, and my uncle and uncle are even more ...... Tiankuo is nothing outside, Ah Chu is the granddaughter of the Chu family, and she is not the girl of the Chu family, I must let her read the book, we just don't live over there, we can still live well! ”

The amount of information in these words is a bit large, and Ming Hao automatically made up it in his mind, his father-in-law passed away, his mother-in-law was said to be Kefu, and he had uncles and brothers, and the eccentric grandparents naturally thought more about the rest of their sons, listening to Li Qiufang's tone, I was afraid that Ah Chu would not be allowed to study, and he would hold on to something else.

Li Qiufang can directly break away from the family and live like this, but it is tough.

Ming Hao looked at her with more admiration in his eyes, and said in agreement: "Mom, you're right, as long as we are upright and upright, we can live well without relying on anyone!" ”

Li Qiufang didn't expect Ming Hao to say this, she also knew how Ming Hao lived in the Shen family, it seems that the rumors are not necessarily true.

Looking at Minghao, I became more and more satisfied.

The mother-in-law looked at her daughter-in-law and felt sensible and reasonable, and the daughter-in-law looked at her mother-in-law and felt self-reliant, and she felt a little sympathetic for a while.

Until the sound of someone shouting outside to eat came.

After a general rationalization, the situation was completely clarified.

The Chu family is about four kilometers away from Qingyun Town, and the Li family is nearly two kilometers away from the town.

The place where I live is a warehouse before the second production team in Qingshan Village, which is also abandoned, and I pay a rent of one yuan a month.

With the help of her mother's brother, Li Qiufang built a ceiling with bamboo chips, and then separated the bamboo walls inside, pasted them with old newspapers, and lived like this.

Lunch was divided into two tables.

The men of the Li family sat around a table, almost all of them were uncles and cousins, and there was wine on the table.

Ming Hao followed Li Qiufang, sitting at a table on the woman's side, there was a big pot of rice on the table, there was also porridge, it was still a green little cabbage, or the appearance of vegetable seedlings was fried in a big pot, a pot of golden pumpkin, a plate is a neatly arranged taro piece, on which there are bright bacon slices, and two spoonfuls of red and bright chopped peppers, exuding a strong aroma.

Minghao's heart was slightly relieved, and fortunately in the misfortune, he was back in the early eighties, not the time of natural disasters, nor the time of the ten-year movement.

"It's all Qiu Fang's craftsmanship, this child can cook since he was a child! In the autumn harvest these days, let's eat together! "The one who smiled with chrysanthemum folds on her face was undoubtedly the old grandmother.

Ming Hao smiled sweetly, ate silently, and quietly observed these people at the same table.

The one who kept putting meat in the bowl, with a round face and a crisp speech, was the second aunt Ning Fengxia, who spoke a little fast, and the chopsticks were even faster.

The one on the side, who was slightly fat, with long braids, spoke in the period of Ai Ai, and had a somewhat bitter face, was the little aunt Zhong Chunxiang, who looked at Ming Hao with a sympathetic eye from time to time.

The one who muttered and talked to Achu was her cousin Li Xiaoli, and on the other side, a seventeen or eighteen-year-old girl was eating calmly, and she remembered to go to the stove room from time to time, it was her cousin Li Xiaoling, who could see that she was a sharp person.

After looking around, he is good at observing words and colors, and he has figured out the situation clearly.

"Minghao, what is said outside can't be true, right?" Ning Fengxia said.

Minghao looked up at her blankly.

Ning Fengxia slapped her thigh, and the food in her mouth hadn't been swallowed yet, so she chattered endlessly, "I just said that this thing can't be true, it is the same as the truth, what did you say that you didn't go to see Tiankuo after you went out, and you went to find that college student, people and college students have a good relationship, you fought with someone and was injured, and when you came back, you saw that Tiankuo's legs were a little bad, and you still wanted to run ......"

"Who said that!" As soon as Li Qiufang's chopsticks were put down, his face sank.

Ning Fengxia pouted, "Don't yell at me, don't I listen to ......?"

"Who said you wouldn't take it back with a big mouth, so you still need to come back and learn!" Li Qiufang snorted.

Ning Fengxia knew that her sister-in-law was powerful, so she didn't dare to say more.

Zhong Chunxiang persuaded on the side, "This is a good meal, don't talk about this, people are good, how can they say these things, if this is spread, how can it be good." ”

As he spoke, the originally bitter face became even more bitter.

Li Qiufang's face was a little gloomy.

Achu glared at Ming Hao, "It's all your fault!" If flies don't bite seamless eggs, they can cause trouble! ”

"Achu!" Li Qiufang scolded.

Ming Hao curled the corners of his mouth, and said with a nonchalant look: "Eat and eat, this word will not be passed on tomorrow." ”

If you don't deal with it well, will you still keep it for the New Year?
