Chapter 6 Do You Believe?
"That's right, my mother hopes that you will all smile more, so that your mother will be happy, and you will be happy yourself."
In adversity, a smile is precious, and facing life with a smile is of great benefit to oneself and others.
Dafu's ears were red, and he was kissed by his mother, he was undoubtedly happy, but at the same time he felt so embarrassed, so how uncomfortable his expression was at this time.
"Mother kissed you, should you also kiss your mother?"
Noticing Daifuku's awkward appearance, Ye Xia only felt funny, and couldn't help but smile and ask for a kiss.
Sanfu and Erfu are quite cooperative, and when they came to Dafu, they first frowned and hesitated for a while, and then they blushed and learned from their two younger brothers to give their mothers a kiss.
"Mother, you rest, I'll take our dirty clothes to the stream to wash."
With that, Daifuku ran to the thatched hut to get his dirty clothes.
"You guys, it doesn't take much time for my mother to wash these clothes." After taking the dirty clothes that Dafu took out, Ye Xia put them in the basin, picked them up and walked towards the gate of the courtyard: "Dafu, I will take care of my two younger brothers by the stream in a while." ”
Daifuku walked beside her with Erfu Sanfu and nodded obediently.
"Fourth sister-in-law?" Yuemei held her six-month-old belly and came out of the courtyard next door: "Fourth sister-in-law, you are really the fourth sister-in-law!" ”
Ye Xia stopped, looked at the young pregnant woman who was also carrying a basin of dirty clothes, with a delicate appearance, but also a little thin, but a lot better complexion than her, pursed her lips and smiled: "It's me." ”
"Aunt Five, do you think my mother looks good like this?"
Erfu asked with a smile as he looked at the young pregnant woman.
"Well, your mother's two braids are very good-looking, and the fifth aunt almost didn't recognize it!"
Yuemei's surname is Nie, she is the sister of Lu Xiangbei's classmate and friend Nie Wenshan, before she got married, she and Ye Xia were in the same village, both were daughters of Yuyao Village, and after getting married, she and Ye Xia became concubines again, and compared to Ye Xia's status in Mrs. Lu's house, she was quite valued in her in-law's family.
Not far from the county hospital on the road.
"Running errands around here?"
Hearing the sound of the car's brakes beside him, Nie Wenshan instinctively turned his head, and saw his friend get out of the car, and immediately, a smile appeared on his face: "It's not my family, I was noisy to go to the hospital to give birth yesterday, I couldn't help but just sent it to my mother, no, the child hasn't been born yet, and I yelled that I want to drink chicken soup, I have no way, I have to go home and stew for her." ”
After a pause, he looked suspicious: "Will you ...... with me when you come back suddenly?"
Lu Xiangbei was silent for a moment, and said: "I am not a competent husband, let alone a competent father. ”
"I'm worried about affecting your work, I didn't want to write to you, but the things Yuemei said to me made me really can't help it, I thought that you must not know that your wife and children at home are living like that, otherwise, how can they suffer in their hometown, so, I thought about it again and again, and decided to write a letter to you, if you think I shouldn't be nosy, here, I say sorry to you."
Nie Wenshan's attitude was very sincere.
"We are classmates, friends and colleagues, I naturally trust you, besides, what is the situation of that home, in fact, I can guess a little, but ......" Lu Xiangbei said, sighing deeply: "Take advantage of this time to go home to recuperate, I will completely solve the problem." ”
"That's good." Nie Wenshan nodded approvingly, and then, he looked at Lu Xiangbei with a concerned face: "Is your body okay?" ”
Lu Xiangbei said in a light tone: "It's not a big deal." ”
"Tired and collapsed in the laboratory, in a coma for three days, and the body functions were greatly depleted, how can this be called no big deal." Xiao Wang stood on the side, and when he heard his teacher talk about his physical condition, he couldn't help but mutter.
Nie Wenshan was stunned for a moment, and then looked solemn: "After being in a coma for three days, your body is seriously damaged, so you shouldn't toss like this." ”
"It's fine." Lu Xiangbei shook his head expressionlessly.
"The complexion is so bad, who will believe it when you say it's okay?" Nie Wenshan looked helpless and sighed: "The factory director must not be able to resist your donkey temper, so he allowed you to go home to recuperate." ”
Xiao Wang looked unhappy: "Comrade, do you speak civilly?!" ”
"Ignore this kid." Lu Xiangbei glanced at Xiao Wang lightly, then looked at Nie Wenshan and asked, "Can you still adapt to your new job?" ”
"If I have any choice, I will never leave our factory."
During the work, an accident, Nie Wenshan was seriously injured, and although he later picked up a life, he could no longer devote himself to research as before, and his parents were old, and there was no one to take care of him, so he had to leave the steel plant and leave the job he loved very much.
"The body is more important than anything else."
After graduating from Harbin Institute of Technology, engaged in the research work he loved, there was no last resort, no one was willing to leave his favorite job, based on this, Lu Xiangbei understood the discomfort in Nie Wenshan's heart, but he could only comfort him.
"You're right." Nie Wenshan tugged at the corners of his mouth, sweeping away his sourness, and then he seemed to think of something, but he showed hesitation and didn't speak for a long time.
Lu Xiangbei naturally noticed the change in his expression, and couldn't help frowning slightly: "If you have something to say, just say it." ”
"Then I'll just say it, don't worry after you hear it."
Nie Wenshan observed Lu Xiangbei's face, and lowered his voice to explain what happened in the hospital today.
He didn't see Lu Xiangbei react for a long time, and couldn't help but feel relieved: "Listening to the words that your mother scolded in the hospital, although your sister-in-law is pregnant, it should be fine, otherwise, you won't take your sixth brother to the hospital......"
"You believe it?"
How much strength does a pregnant woman who faint with hunger have to kick a grown man to the ground?
Lu Xiangbei's facial expression was cold, and his eyes were deep and bottomless, making it impossible to see his emotional changes at this time.
Hungry?
How difficult is it for the family to take his salary and make his wife and children suffer and starve?
Not to mention...... That mother four...... There is a share of earnings......
Dafu is six and a half years old, Erfu is less than five years old, and Sanfu is more than three years old...... Could it be that the family thinks that he and his wife and children owe them?
Otherwise, how can he hold his salary and treat his wife and children so harshly?
The hands hanging by his side slowly clenched, and Lu Xiangbei tried his best to control his emotions so that he didn't let himself slam his fist on the car door.
"I don't believe it, but your mother's emotions are really excited, if that matter has nothing to do with your sister-in-law, she can jump to scold her sister-in-law in the hospital corridor, and say that if your sixth brother is a good person, if your sister-in-law is not allowed to die."
Nie Wenshan didn't add fuel and vinegar, he just stated what he heard truthfully.
Lu Xiangbei's expression was dark: "Are they still in the hospital?" ”
"Your sixth brother just had a little bruise on his abdomen, and the doctor said that he didn't hurt his internal organs, so he only prescribed some medicine, and asked your mother to take someone back."
Nie Wenshan was really dumbfounded by Mrs. Lu's behavior in the hospital, but the other party was the mother of a friend, which made him have to be as tactful as possible: "I really haven't seen a little son like your mother, obviously the doctor diagnosed the need for hospitalization, and even the patient walked around by himself is not a problem, but your mother is clamoring for the doctor to take your sixth brother in the hospital for a few days, and said that she has money and can afford the hospitalization fee, and finally I don't know what your eldest brother said in your mother's ear, your mother immediately shut up, The family then carried your sixth brother on the ox cart in the team and left. ”
Lu Xiangbei pursed his lips slightly, quietly listened to Nie Wenshan's words, and said, "Thank you, I'll have time to get together for two drinks another day." ”
