The woman who suddenly broke in startled all four people in the house, and Liu Guangqi's mother-in-law put the two pieces of bacon behind her like a thief.

The woman who broke in was not an outsider, it was Qin Huairu's second aunt, that is, Qin Dazhuang's younger daughter-in-law, Qin Jingru's mother, who was holding Qin Jingru's younger brother who was more than a year old, but because of malnutrition, the little guy was only seven or eight months old, and he didn't have any energy at all.

"Her second aunt, it's not that we don't borrow it, our family doesn't have extra food, this bit of food was just sent by Guangqi, if it is lent to you, what will our family of three eat."

Hearing that she was going to borrow food, Liu Guangqi's mother-in-law was not happy, and held the rice bag tightly.

"Sister-in-law, you have pity on the poor dog, he hasn't eaten enough for months, and if he doesn't eat some serious food, he will really starve to death. Big brother, the dog is your own nephew, you can't care about his life or death. Big brother, look at the dog. ”

Saying that, Qin Huairu's second aunt knelt and moved two steps forward, lifting the child in her arms in front of Qin Dazhuang.

", or borrow it"

Looking at his dying nephew, Qin Dazhuang's heart softened, this is his flesh and blood relative, watching his nephew starve to death, he really can't do it.

"Her second aunt, it's not that I don't want to borrow, it's really that this child came at the wrong time, a total of this bit of food, even if I give it all to you, I can't support this child, just rely on this little thing that this child can't survive this winter."

As a mother, Liu Guangqi's mother-in-law understands her brother-in-law's feelings very well, but she knows that this little food can't support this child. And this opening can't be seen, Qin Dazhuang still has several brothers, if he lends it to her, the others will definitely come over to borrow it, that is, no matter how much food is enough.

"Then what should I do, I can't watch this child starve to death. Woo."

Seeing that Qin Dazhuang and his wife refused to borrow food, Qin Huairu's second aunt directly sat on the ground with the child in her arms and cried bitterly.

"Big brother, I beg you, you can lend us some food, I have been looking forward to such a son for so many years. If he's gone, I'll be dead. ”

Hearing his daughter-in-law's crying, Qin Dali, who had been standing outside, also walked in. followed by Qin Jingru and a six or seven-year-old girl.

"What do you mean by this, if I don't borrow it, are you going to rob it?"

Looking at Qin Dali, who suddenly broke in, Qin Dazhuang's face changed.

"Big brother, I really can't help it, I can't watch the child starve to death, this time it's a brother who can't stand you, and when you get through this year, I will kowtow to you and confess."

After that, Qin Dali walked towards Liu Guangqi's mother-in-law, intending to snatch the grain.

"You dare, it's the other way around."

Seeing that his brother was planning to shoot food, Qin Dazhuang didn't care about any brotherhood, and directly threw himself at Qin, and the two brothers immediately tore together.

Seeing this, Qin Huairu's second aunt also stuffed the child in her arms into Qin Jingru's arms, and pounced on Liu Guangqi's mother-in-law, and the two of them also followed suit, Qin Xiaozhuang saw that someone robbed his family's food and joined the war group, but he couldn't beat his uncle, so he helped his mother beat his aunt, and the whole room was a mess for a while.

"Enough, isn't it just a little food, as for it?"

Looking at the chaos in front of him, Liu Guangqi pinched his eyebrows with a headache, and then nodded at everyone.

Hearing Liu Guangqi's scolding, the two families who were torn together suddenly remembered that there was an outsider here, so they immediately stopped what they were doing and looked at Liu Guangqi quietly.

Seeing that the two families stopped fighting, Liu Guangqi got up and walked in front of Qin Jingru, now Qin Jingru is fifteen years old, compared with when he was a child, he has grown a lot taller, darker, and lost a lot of weight, but he can still see that he is a beautiful embryo.

"Brother-in-law"

Looking at Liu Guangqi in front of him, Qin Jingru timidly called out to his brother-in-law.

When he was a child, Liu Guangqi often took the three sisters into the city to play together, but as Liu Guangqi took Qin Huairu and Qin Huiru sisters to the city, Liu Guangqi came to Qinjiazhuang less often, and had less contact with Qin Jingru, and the relationship between the two was inevitably a little rusty.

"I'm thin, I'm hungry these days."

Liu Guangqi stretched out his hand and wiped it on Qin Jingru's head, perhaps because of long-term hunger, the little girl's hair felt like a pile of hay.

Hearing Liu Guangqi's gentle voice, Qin Jingru couldn't help but think of the days when Liu Guangqi took her into the city to watch a big drama and eat roast chicken when she was a child, and tears involuntarily flowed down her cheeks.

"What are you crying about, give me the child, and I'll show him."

Looking at the aggrieved Qin Jingru, Liu Guangqi reached out to wipe away the tears on the little girl's face, and then stretched out his hands. But Qin Jingru did not hand over the child to Liu Guangqi as soon as possible, but looked at Qin Dali.

"Look at what I'm doing, hurry up and give your brother to your brother-in-law, let your brother-in-law see, you stupid girl."

Although Qin Dali was reckless, he also understood the truth that he could not offend the God of Wealth, and the grain was sent by Liu Guangqi.

"Guangqi, you show my brother, this child is almost two years old, and he still can't walk, what's wrong with this."

Seeing Liu Guangqi take the child, Qin Dali shook off Qin Dazhuang and walked in front of Liu Guangqi and said earnestly.

"Mom, I'm a little hungry, you cook me some porridge and stir-fry."

Liu Guangqi ignored Qin Dali and walked to the kang with the child in his arms, and gave an order to the mother-in-law standing aside.

"Okay, I'll do it."

Although the mother-in-law couldn't figure out what Liu Guangqi was thinking, she still obediently took the food to the kitchen.

"You can't support this child, his body is too weak, he needs to be well cared for, you don't have that condition, let me take it to the city to raise it, and after these two years, I will send him back to you when the days are better."

"Good, good"

Liu Guangqi stared at the child for a long time, and the first words he said frightened the people present. Immediately after that, Qin Dali was in ecstasy, and he hurriedly agreed.

The second aunt on the side wanted to ask why, but as soon as she opened her mouth, she was glared back by Qin Dali, for fear that her stinky girl's words would make Liu Guangqi unhappy, and she would regret it again.

"Second uncle, it's not me who said you, you're doing this too unreasonably, you went to someone's house to borrow food, and if they didn't give it, they would rob it. Isn't it a bit too much. ”

Taking advantage of the cooking, Liu Guangqi sat on the kang and teased Qin Huairu's second uncle.

"Yes, I did the right thing, but I was also forced to the point that I couldn't help it, I couldn't watch my children starve to death. You haven't been hungry, Guangqi, you don't know what it's like to be hungry, if people are hungry, they are scratching their hearts and livers, and they can do anything, I was hungry and faint just now. How else I could have done such a thing. ”

Qin Dali looked at Liu Guangqi with a look of shame.

"I know what you said, so let's do it, second uncle, there are fifty catties of grain here, and you can take twenty catties in a while,"

"Guangqi, you"

Hearing that Liu Guangqi had divided half of the food for his family, Qin Dazhuang on the side suddenly became anxious, and was about to say something, but was glared back by Liu Guangqi.

"Second uncle, second aunt, while the meal is not ready yet, you go back to pack the children's clothes, and I should go back after eating in a while, otherwise I won't be able to catch the last bus."

"Alright, alright."

Waiting for Liu Guangqi's orders, Qin Dali and his wife immediately walked towards their home. When he left, he also took 20 catties of grain with him.

"Guangqi, what are you doing here, why did you lend so much food at once."

After Qin Dali's family left, Qin Dazhuang couldn't hold back the doubts in his heart anymore, and asked in a hurry

"Don't worry, Dad, listen to me, this time I didn't think it through, I didn't expect there to be so many people at the entrance of the village, I should have picked someone to come when there were few.

Don't think I'm giving too much, what I gave out was food, but what I saved was the lives of you and my mother, as well as Xiaozhuang's family of three. ”

"What do you mean by that?"

As an honest farmer, Qin Dazhuang didn't understand why Liu Guangqi said that.

"Just look at the eyes of the people outside"

Liu Guangqi gestured out of the window with his eyes, and Qin Dazhuang immediately looked outside, only to find that the wall of his courtyard was full of villagers at some point, and these people were all staring at their own homes, and their eyes were so scary.

At this moment, Qin Dazhuang understood the meaning of Liu Guangqi's words.

"Fifty catties of grain may not be a big deal on weekdays, but it's different in this year. If a person is very hungry, he can do anything, just think about the second uncle, how honest people are on weekdays, now they can turn their faces against you for this bit of food, the second uncle is like this, not to mention those people outside. There are always one or two of them who are bold and hungry. If you break in in the middle of the night, it will be troublesome, and even rush in with a gang to shoot food, this kind of thing is not impossible. ”

Listening to Liu Guangqi's words, Qin Dazhuang was cold on his back and sweating profusely.

"Lend the grain to the second uncle, on the one hand, it is to share the attention of those people outside, on the other hand, it is also to reduce the risk, fifty catties of food is worth the risk, but twenty catties of grain is not necessarily worth it. There is also the matter of lending food to the second uncle, if something goes wrong on your side, the second uncle will definitely come over immediately. ”

"You don't have to worry about food, I'll send you some later, but next time I won't go into the village, avoid some people."

"Eh, good, good"

Hearing that Liu Guangqi was going to send food to himself, Qin Dazhuang felt unhappy and was thrown aside.

Soon Liu Guangqi's mother-in-law cooked the meal, and coincidentally, Qin Dali's family also came over with the child's clothes.

"Eat, Dad, I'll go first."

"Okay, why don't you eat it again."

"I was hungry just now, and now I'm not hungry. Let's eat it. ”

"Dad, you take this and the world is not peaceful now, take this for self-defense."

Holding the child to the door, seeing the people on the wall with terrible eyes, Liu Guangqi still felt uneasy, so he deliberately took out a real pistol from his waist and stuffed it into Qin Dazhuang's hand.

Seeing this gun, the eyes of everyone on the wall finally changed, and they climbed down from the wall with reluctance.

"Guangqi, this is"

Looking at the gun in Liu Guangqi's hand, Qin Dazhuang was also startled, he had never touched a gun at such an old age.

"Take it, Dad, this is a starting pistol, it can't hurt anyone, I usually use it to scare people. If someone does sneak in at night, you shoot and scare them. ”

"Oh, that's a good idea."

Hearing Liu Guangqi say this, Qin Dazhuang also relieved his heart and took the gun.

"Light Qi, wait, wait"

After handing over the gun to Qin Dazhuang, Liu Guangqi carried the child and pushed the cart towards the outside of the village.

Before Liu Guangqi walked out of the village, the voice of Qin Huairu's second aunt came from behind him.

"Is there anything else, second aunt, do you want to see the child again?"

Seeing the second aunt who was panting and chasing after her, Liu Guangqi thought that the other party was reluctant to have children.

"No, the child will be handed over to you, I don't worry, you can take Jingru with you, Guangqi, let her wash and cook for you and Huairu, take the child or something, don't give money, just give food."

The second aunt dragged Qin Jingru's arm and pushed Qin Jingru in front of Liu Guangqi.

……

"That's what happened, it's just like this, I don't want to take it, but your second aunt threw Jingru in front of me and ran away, I can't care about it."

When Liu Guangqi took the child and Qin Jingru back to Nanluoguxiang, the house exploded instantly, and Liu Guangqi's women thought that Qin Jingru and the child were women and illegitimate children that Liu Guangqi didn't know where to raise them, and now they took them home.

Fortunately, Qin Huairu, who came out of the house later, recognized Qin Jingru who followed Liu Guangqi behind, which avoided a bloody storm.

However, in view of Liu Guangqi's experience, Qin Huairu did not let Liu Guangqi go, and directly dragged Liu Guangqi to the room and asked about what happened.

"She doesn't care, you have to take care of it, she's taking you wrong."

"Then what should I do, I can't run away too, won't Jingru become a child that no one wants?"

"Hmph, I think you just have ulterior motives, so what's going on with this kid. Why are you doing with a child when you have nothing to do, this child has become like this, you are not afraid of something bad, my second uncle is looking for you desperately,"

Qin Huairu looked at Liu Guangqi and snorted coldly, looking at the child in Liu Guangqi's arms.

"Don't worry, this child looks sick, in fact, there is nothing serious about it, but he is malnourished and hungry. It's good to go back and give him something good to eat and make up for it slowly, and the reason why I brought him back is only my arrangement.

”

"What arrangement?"

"You'll know when the time comes"

Liu Guangqi naturally would not raise a child for someone else for no reason, and the reason why he adopted this child was because He Ruiyun suddenly proposed to him two days ago that he wanted to give him a child.

Liu Guangqi naturally would not object to giving birth to a child, and he couldn't afford to raise it, but it was still a little abrupt to suddenly have multiple children in this family.

After all, He Ruiyun has been widowed for so many years, and he always feels strange to have multiple children for no reason.

When he saw the dog today, Liu Guangqi had an idea in his heart, he could adopt a few children under the pretext of raising children for relatives, and when the children were older, he would say that people didn't want them, or he was reluctant to leave the children by his side.

Although this move seems a bit redundant, after all, no one could have thought that Liu Guangqi would have space, but Liu Guangqi still decided to take insurance, and the surrounding neighbors were mentally prepared to accept it.

"Mysterious"

Seeing that Liu Guangqi refused to say, Qin Huairu didn't ask again, anyway, it was her cousin who was adopted, and she was a blood relative, Liu Guangqi wanted to be a good person, so she naturally wouldn't object.

"Jingru, come here, I'll take you to take a shower and change your clothes. I'll take you upstairs to see the room in a moment. You'll be in the same room I used to live in. ”

After the husband and wife finished speaking, they walked out of the house, and saw Qin Jingru fidgeting at the door, quietly waiting for Qin Huairu's fall, not at all as calm as when he was a child.

It wasn't until she heard that her cousin comrade lived here that Qin Jingru breathed a sigh of relief.

"What are you nervous about, it's not like you haven't been here, when you were young, weren't you happy to run up and down, it's only been a long time since you came and you've become so restrained, don't be afraid to treat it as your own home."

Seeing Qin Jingru's anxious eyes, Liu Guangqi stepped forward and touched Qin Jingru's head, but before he touched it twice, Qin Huairu dragged Qin Jingru aside like a thief, and finally warned Liu Guangqi with his eyes.

Perhaps because he was afraid that Qin Jingru was carrying parasites and fleas, he took a bath for more than an hour, and by the time the two of them came out of the bathroom, it was already time for dinner.

It is impossible for Liu Guangqi to change the habits of the family for the sake of Qin Jingru, and the whole family is still sitting around a big round table. The table was filled with seven or eight plates, both meat and vegetarian.

Seeing the sumptuous meal on the table, Qin Jingru, who hadn't eaten a full meal for a long time, was directly dumbfounded. He stood in the doorway, unable to believe what was in front of him. If it weren't for seeing it with her own eyes, if it weren't for the pain in her thigh, she couldn't believe that all this was true.

When her family could only eat one nest head and one sweet potato every day, Liu Guangqi's family could actually eat such a sumptuous dish. Looking at the big oily piece of meat, Qin Jingru couldn't help but swallow his saliva.

"What are you doing in a daze, hurry up and sit down and eat, I specially asked my aunt to make rice porridge for you, and a few dishes you like to eat."

Seeing Qin Jingru's stunned appearance, Liu Guangqi beckoned to her.

Knowing that the spicy and fragrant big bones were put in her mouth, Qin Jingru came back to her senses and began to frantically suck the soup in the big bones.
