Chapter 492: Concealment
"Daddy, what's the team? Uncle and uncle, are they okay? ”
When Zhang's mother saw her wife coming in, she hurriedly got a bowl of cold boiled water.
Speaking of cold boiled water, Zhang's mother thought of her old son. If her own Xiaowu knew that she would be boastful, she resolutely carried out her son's repeated orders.
This good day has passed, and Zhang's mother is not as enthusiastic about returning to her hometown as her wife. In the summer, there are many mosquitoes in the village, and the food and accommodation are not as comfortable as in the city. She is getting more and more used to staying in the county.
No, she hasn't gone back with her wife much these times. When I went back to see the big guy busy farming, she didn't do it empty-handed and worried about being seen, why bother?
"The whole village was so busy that they hit the back of their heels in the head. Fortunately, you didn't go back, this time as soon as the above policy came out, when the farm was over, the village canteen would be disbanded, and everyone would come to me now to ask where to buy pots. ”
After Dad Zhang finished speaking, he shook his head. After a while, where to buy this pot.
"What did you say? Don't say yes. The former supply and marketing cooperatives also let you bring a broken pot to buy a new pot. Who do you say if there is a broken pot and don't make up for it, who wants to spend that money? It's just that you have to buy it when you don't have a pot, so it's good, it's not that people won't buy it. ”
After Zhang's mother finished speaking, she didn't care about the wet towel in her hand dripping water, and stared at her wife tightly.
Dad Zhang smiled: "Am I stupid? Is this something I can promise me? Let them use clay pots to deal with them first. ”
"Sister-in-law, brother and sister, didn't you let me talk?"
"I'm an old man, why are they coming to me if they have nothing to do? If they want to buy a pot, they will only look for the second child, isn't that better than looking for our old two? ”
"It's useless to look for it. The second child in our family is not as enthusiastic as the fifth child. It's really not good, the family took a bite out and let them use it first, so that they don't have to write a letter to Xiao Wu and make my old son embarrassed. ”
Dad Zhang took the towel from his wife's hand, wrung it out and hung it on the basin stand. After a while, he shook his head and said, "You can't move it at home, just one bite, it's not appropriate to give it to anyone." Big brother, they won't send a letter to Xiao Wu. You think, it's just that Xiao Wu bought the pot, and it took a lot of money to send it back. ”
The old couple chatted in the room. After a while, there was the sound of Zhang Lao Er shouting and Xizi opening the courtyard door outside.
"Why is this kid not coming to work?"
"How do I know, there may be something urgent."
When Zhang Lao Er came in, he didn't forget to ask Xizi to pour a glass of water. took the bowl and rolled his eyes, "Your uncle is stinky, don't learn this." ”
Xizi smiled at him and said defiantly: "Second uncle, don't use shampoo and soap for your errands, I can smell it." ”
"Stinky boy, you're getting fat."
Zhang's mother slapped at him, "I see that you are not cowardly, and you will not save your salary, so you will be happy." ”
"Mother, you misunderstood. This was given to me by Xiao Wu two years ago, and I was usually reluctant to use it, so I washed it in the summer. Really, there are honey locusts at home. ”
Father Zhang watched his second son being beaten by his wife and begging for mercy, and the eldest grandson covered his mouth gloating and snickered, and slapped him on the head, "Happy?" Go and pour another bowl of water for your second uncle. ”
"Well, my son is so old, he won't be unreliable. Let's see what happened to the second child first? ”
Zhang Lao Er smiled: "Dad, my mother is reluctant to beat me, it's almost like scratching an itch, I'm comfortable." I didn't come to see if you were back, I thought you had to stay until the end of the farming. ”
Father Zhang glanced at his wife, "Your mother told me that I must come back today, do I dare?" ”
Zhang's mother was amused by him.
"Dead old men are all blind."
Zhang Lao Er can't hear the obscure word 'death' now. He hurriedly asked his mother to spit on the ground, muttering about a long life.
Father Zhang looked at his son curiously. I thought something had happened? What virtue does his second child have, he doesn't know yet? What will be superstition.
Zhang Lao Er sat for a while and chatted with his parents about family life. After a while, he said, "I heard that Mrs. Zhou fell down for a while. Do you think I should mention it to Xiao Wu? ”
Father Zhang frowned, "Did the old Zhou family deliberately ask someone to hand you the message, or did you inquire?" ”
"Someone else unintentionally mentioned it, and then I went to inquire."
Zhang's mother really didn't want to tell her son and daughter-in-law about this. In case it is involved again, the in-laws must not be annoyed to death. Others have never been to the capital in person by imagination, but she and her wife have seen it with their own eyes. If he was seen by the old Zhou family, he would really not leave, and he would have to make trouble.
She looked at her husband and hoped that he would give an idea.
Dad Zhang also thought of this. What is human skin? The old Zhou family really wants to make trouble in the compound, and Brother Zhou's face is not good-looking, even if he can stand, but there must be someone behind him who takes the opportunity to reverse right and wrong and try to add chaos and smear.
"Did the old lady ask for a doctor?"
"I went to the hospital in the city once, but I didn't know what was wrong, and within a few days they took the old lady home. Now I can't go to the ground, and I'm on the kang all day. ”
After Zhang Lao Er finished speaking, he looked at his parents' frowning faces and expressed his opinion.
"Dad, the old Zhou family won't ignore the old lady, you forgot that the old lady has a retirement salary and a lot of benefits every year. If she leaves, these benefits will be gone.
So you and your mother, don't worry about being sick for a long time and having no filial son or anything. I don't think the old lady is good to take care of, so I think about whether to inform Uncle Zhou and their father and daughter......"
Before Dad Zhang could finish speaking, he immediately shook his head, "The old Zhou family didn't notify us, so you shouldn't know, and don't inquire, so you don't have to let people know." ”
After speaking, he said to his wife: "Child, I don't think Xiao Wu will come back this summer." It's not safe on the way, and with this incident, it's better for the two of them to stay outside with peace of mind. ”
"Okay. If someone mentions this, it will make Jiaojiao embarrassed. Let's just say we'll go over and see them at the end of the year and tell them not to come back. Let's lie like this first, and I'll talk about it later. ”
Seeing that his nephew on the side was listening with relish, Zhang Lao Er nodded with relish, and hurriedly ordered: "Don't tell your uncle in the letter, you know?" ”
Kiko nodded, but she didn't think so. Why do you hide it from his uncle? What if they do something bad with good intentions? What a smart man his uncle is, he still needs to hide from him. Secretly pondering how to write it is more appropriate. Well, grandma's words should also be written.
Zhang Lao Er smiled with satisfaction. This kid is still relatively obedient, and he has no doubts.
"That's it. We'll talk about it when they give us the message. You go and take a telegram to Xiao Wu first, so that he doesn't go home. ”
Dad Zhang slapped the board, and this matter was decided.
Zhang Lao Er saw that the matter was negotiated, so he got up and went to the kang to see his youngest son. I saw that the little guy was sleeping soundly, and he couldn't alarm him so loudly just now.
Zhang's mother quipped: "Thinking of your son? ”
"Hey, hey... Is my mother tired? ”
"This child is like Ping'an, he eats and sleeps, sleeps and eats, and he is very good to bring. You just stopped and let him go to the nursery, it's not that I dislike the aunt there, it's really not good, I actually let me catch lice. ”
Father Zhang didn't intervene on the side, looking at the mother and son with a smile. Since my wife has been to the compound nursery a few times, her vision is really much higher. Whose children don't have lice, that is, the big city pays attention to it.
He still remembers that his children had too many lice when they were young, and they had no choice but to shave their heads. That is, since the wife has not gone to the ground, there is free time to love tossing, and the children are clean, otherwise they will stay in the field every day like in the past, who can take care of these details of life.
