Chapter 559: Counting Beans to Kill Time
"Is there a letter from liberation? It's been more than half a month. Ding's father looked at her and asked.
"I've had two letters, and Xing'er has taken good care of him, thank them so much." Ding Mingyue said sincerely, "With them watching, liberation will not be bad." ”
"Be thankful and sincere!" Ding's father smiled and said.
"What sincerity does Big Brother want?" Ding Mingyue chuckled and nodded.
"Isn't my little sister good at embroidery? Embroider something for your nephew. Dad Ding said directly.
"I didn't embroider a belly pocket for my child." Ding Mingyue said with a smile.
"Where's that enough! None of them even had a change of washing. Dad Ding looked at her 'complaining' and said.
"Okay, I'll embroider it for your grandson." Ding Mingyue happily agreed.
"Is that right? You aunt can't be in vain. Ding's father smiled, and suddenly sighed, "It's a pity that I can't know what my grandson looks like?" Is it more like mom, or more like dad. ”
Ding Mingyue also looked regretful, and then smiled again, "My sister-in-law will definitely bring a full moon photo when she comes back, and I won't know it by then." ”
"I know, but I'll have to wait a month! Isn't this anxious? Ding's father rubbed his hands and said anxiously, "If I can't leave now, I really want to take a car to the city to see my grandson." ”
Ding Mingyue sighed, "Originally, I wouldn't be too busy after the autumn harvest and sowing, it's a bit like sweet potatoes!" It can be harvested even if it is frosty, and this year I came to sea farming, and kelp likes low temperatures, so it is really busier than usual. ”
"Forget it, let's not talk about it." Dad Ding looked at the two brothers and sisters now, and his eyes as deep as the ocean crossed a glint and said, "That...... Mingyue, I've always had a question that I want to ask you before I die. You'll answer me! He looked at her with a look of hope.
Ding Mingyue squinted at him and said, "Before I die, or before you die." Say something depressing! It's a good day, and I'm going to live a long life. ”
"Oops! I'll just say that, no matter who dies first between the two of us, it's not all the same, who can pull whom. Dad Ding smiled.
"Big brother, don't pull me, I'm more than ten years younger than you!" Ding Mingyue said with a disdainful face, and then said with a smile, "Say it!" What a problem. If you're in a good mood today, listen to what you want to say? ”
Dad Ding looked at her cautiously and said, "You can't be angry!" ”
Ding Mingyue put down the chopsticks in his hand, looked at him and said, "If you say a question that will make me angry, don't ask it." ”
Now that we've said it all, how can we not say it! Dad Ding looked at her with small eyes and said, "I'm curious, have you never thought of remarrying?" ”
Ding Mingyue looked at him in surprise, and Ding's father continued, "You haven't thought about men! ”
Ding Mingyue looked at him dumbfounded, "You ......"
"You and I are brother and sister, what is there to say." Dad Ding looked at her quietly and said.
"Alright! What kind of answer do you want to hear. Ding Mingyue sat up straight and looked back at him.
"I want to hear your honesty!" Dad Ding looked at her and said seriously.
"Do you want to hear me say that I count beans every night to kill time, or do I endure it because I prick my thigh with a needle?" Ding Mingyue looked at him and said in a weird manner.
Ding's father looked at her gossip and said, "Have you thought about it! ”
"Tut-tut......" Ding Mingyue glanced at it and said, "Big brother, you should really look in the mirror, you look like a mother-in-law on the beach." continued, "As a man, you actually inquire about your sister's private affairs, you are really good. ”
"You ......" Ding's father was choked half to death by his sister's poisonous tongue.
"Brother, what do you want to say today? Let's be more direct, don't ramble, I'm still waiting for dinner! Ding Mingyue picked up the chopsticks and said.
Speaking of which, Ding's father simply said directly, "That...... Are you really not remarrying? Now that I'm liberated, I've gone to high school, and when I come back to college, I guess I won't go back to Xinghuapo, you're not alone! ”
"Big brother, if you are a widower, will you marry someone else immediately! Marry a young and beautiful one again. Ding Mingyue squinted his eyes slightly and looked at his eldest brother and quipped.
"Ahh Ding's father looked at her with his mouth wide open, and immediately said angrily when he came back to his senses, "Little sister, what are you talking about?" I'm not so ruthless and unrighteous. ”
"Then you let the girl be a ruthless and unrighteous person?" Ding Mingyue's eyes widened to let him clearly see the persistence in his eyes.
"That's different, my brother-in-law has been gone for many years." Dad Ding looked at her and continued.
"It doesn't make a difference to me." Ding Mingyue rubbed his index finger on the bridge of his nose and said, "Big brother, you won't do anything bad behind my back, right!" ”
"No, no." Dad Ding hurriedly waved his hand and muttered in his heart: I just want to do something bad, and I have to get your consent!
"I just feel sorry for you, my brother-in-law has been gone for so many years, how did you spend this lonely day." Ding's father explained in a panic.
Ding Mingyue said deliberately in a huff, "I live by pricking my thigh with a needle, okay?" Are you satisfied? Glaring at him, he said angrily, "It's a nice sunny morning, and you've been completely ruined." ”
"Why are you so fierce? Do I just care about you? I didn't say anything excessive. Ding's father shrunk his neck and defended like a battered little daughter-in-law, "You said that the children are gone one by one, the work is going well, they get married and have children, and they will come back for the New Year's holidays." If the place of work is far away, it is not easy to come back, and it will take a few years to see each other. I'm older than you, and I must have left earlier than you, and when you are alone, how can I explain to my father and mother when I get down. ”
"When I think about it, I shudder and be afraid, when I think of my sister, alone in a cold home, in the cold wind and rain, and when she is sick, there is no one to bring you a cup of hot water. A person curling old age and dying in a hut, it is difficult to think about it! I won't be able to close my eyes even under the ground. Ding's father said as his nose was sour, and the corners of his eyes moistened.
Ding Mingyue looked at the eldest brother singing and playing with an expression of watching the play, "Brother, your imagination is really rich, and halfway couples can have one heart." ”
"Didn't you say that a house full of children is better than a halfway couple?" Dad Ding raised his arm and wiped the corners of his eyes and said, "Old companion, how good it is to have someone who knows cold and hot to accompany you." ”
"I'm not a fool, I know the pros and cons of this with or without a wife." Ding Mingyue said lightly, "I just choose not to remarry now, and I can get the benefits, in other words, give up the disadvantages after remarrying." ”
Facing his sharp-toothed sister, Ding's father couldn't say a word when he was scared.
