Dinner was hearty with steamed marine fish, prawns and orchid crab, plus a large plate of stir-fried choy sum.

Gu Qi has been floating on the sea for more than half a month, and he has long been tired of eating seafood, and he is eating cabbage sum vigorously.

Chen Xingling saw that he was eating happily and helped him clip more.

"This is a small dish that my mother planted in the back of the house, and she gave us a few large bundles. If you like it, I'll fry it for you tomorrow while it's fresh. ”

Gu Qi nodded again and again.

Chen Xingling thought for a while and reminded: "I bought a few new aluminum lunch boxes, and the youngest one is Xiaohuzi." Remember to bring him with you tomorrow at noon when you take him to the cafeteria. The cup he drank from was the one with a 'South China Tiger', don't forget. ”

“…… Oooh. Gu Qi glanced at it and quickly remembered it.

Chen Xingling said again: "Last month, you were the only one who lived alone for a while, and the water and electricity bills at home were not much, a few cents in total. I went to the logistics department to hand it in the afternoon before yesterday, and I can hand it in on any day of the first five days of the month. ”

"Okay." Gu Qi nodded.

Chen Xingling suddenly remembered another thing and reminded: "Yesterday, I told the third brother that I didn't know where to buy honeycomb coal here, and asked him to help me make some and send it over." He made more than 100 of them early this morning with the mud and black coal from the pond and laid them on the side of the house to dry. It happens that the sun is good today, and it should be able to dry tomorrow. Tomorrow or the day after tomorrow, when the brothers go into the city to sell fish, they will be delivered. ”

"Okay." Gu Qi said: "I won't go far sooner or later, I will go home after picking up Yinmo." ”

Chen Xingling looked around the living room with a smile and said, "Just when the stove is boiling, there will be nothing missing in the living room and kitchen." By the way, I ordered a small square table for Ah Yi, and I will send it over in a few days. ”

Gu Yi glared in surprise and quickly shook his head.

"Sister-in-law, no, no! When I earn money and get paid, I'll buy it myself. My uncle and brother sent two beds over, and you and my eldest brother were useless, so they gave them to me directly. It's the bedding and the curtains, you've arranged them so thoroughly, I'll buy the rest of the small table myself. ”

Chen Xingling looked at him with a smile and whispered: "Earlier, I reminded you that you must save money well, and you have to buy furniture by yourself when you turn around?" I've already made it, and I'll send it over in two days when I get a layer of transparent paint. ”

"Thank you, sister-in-law." Gu Yi grinned gratefully, "When I make a lot of money in the future, I will definitely repay you!" ”

Chen Xingling laughed: "Okay! Then I'll wait! ”

Gu Qi saw that his wife had arranged everything in the new home, including her son and herself, properly and orderly, and couldn't help but secretly admire, and even a little incredulous.

It wasn't until he returned to the master bedroom that Gu Qi had a chance to talk to her more carefully.

"You must have been busy in the past half a month, right?"

I have to register for exams and go to school, and I have to settle down in a new home to take care of my son and brother-in-law, and I can also take care of everything in order, and what I want at home, inside and out.

If it were him, he wouldn't be able to do it 100%, otherwise he would have moved in for more than ten days before, except for moving the bed in, the whole house would hardly have changed.

Chen Xingling wiped his wet hair and chuckled.

"It's okay, it's finally busy."

Gu Qi asked something more unexpected in his heart, "You really took the test...... First place? ”

"How?" Chen Xingling looked at him amusedly, and asked rhetorically: "Suspect that the marking teacher gave me the wrong score?" Or do you suspect that your daughter-in-law tricked you before? ”

Gu Qi shook his head and smiled softly.

"I don't doubt it. It's just that you couldn't help but doze off when you read a book before, and I thought you still needed to get up. ”

She said that she had read all the high school texts on the desk in her hometown and understood them thoroughly, and even did the post-class questions several times. He was stunned at the time, and felt that Shibei should be impressed for three days.

I thought that when he came back, I would inquire about the transfer situation of Chongwen Middle School for her, and planned to find an opportunity for her to go to the first or second class of high school, hoping that she could go to the only middle school in the neighborhood to continue her studies and strive for greater progress.

Who knew that she did everything properly, and even took the first place in the first place in the first place in the first class of the third year of high school!

He was amazed by his wife's solidity, and no words could describe his mood at the moment.

has such a capable and excellent wife, when he is busy outside, he settles down and stabilizes the rear for him, takes care of the family and takes care of the old and young, and does not forget to actively work hard.

Happy, happy for her, but more with honor!

Chen Xingling told him about the two hundred yuan taken out of the money storage shell, and made up the same excuse.

"My parents were going to give us furniture for the house, but I didn't know what we liked, so they just stuffed a hundred yuan into me and asked me to buy it myself. The bedding, the curtains, and the miscellaneous things were all bought by the hundred dollars and the money with me. There are more than 100 dollars left in the withdrawn money, so let's keep it for the bike. ”

Gu Qi heard her say that she couldn't apply for a bicycle ticket, so he nodded calmly and gently.

"Don't worry, just leave it to me."

Chen Xingling's heart was sweet and snuggled on his shoulder.

"You're back, and I'm finally at ease."

Gu Qi's ears were red, and he gently reached out to hug her.

……

The next morning, Chen Xingling turned on the kerosene stove in the kitchen to boil millet porridge, quickly took out two packets of barbecued pork buns from the supermarket space, and placed them neatly in three small steamers. Millet porridge in the pot, steamer on the pot, one for two purposes.

Then, she took two newly bought aluminum lunch boxes into the space, scooped two bowls of rice from the insulated rice pot, and then ran to the fruit and vegetable section to get two large apples and stuffed them into her school bag.

Thinking that I was most likely to be hungry when I was in school, I simply took two fried chicken thighs, plus a big spoonful of cold kelp, and stuffed them into another aluminum lunch box.

At this time, Xiaohuzi woke up and ran into the master bedroom with sleepy eyes to call his mother.

Chen Xingling hurriedly came out of the space and continued to stay in the kitchen.

Gu Qi deserved to be a good father, quickly put on his coat and got out of bed, and took his son to wash his face.

After a while, Gu Yi folded the bed and came out.

Chen Xingling brought the millet porridge to the table, and the three steamers were also served.

By this time, it was almost seven o'clock in the old clock on the wall.

Chen Xingling was secretly anxious, hurriedly filled the military kettle with hot water, hurriedly nibbled on two barbecued pork buns, and grabbed one in his hand.

"Archie! I'm well fed and going to school! Hurry up and have breakfast! ”

With that, she hurriedly put on her shoes, opened the door and ran downstairs.

Gu Qi walked out with her son in tow and found that she had already run away, and the millet porridge on the table still hadn't moved.

Xiaohuzi yawned and asked in a daze, "Dad, doesn't Mom eat it?" ”

Gu Qi opened the steamer, looked at the delicate barbecued pork buns with fragrant and hot steam, and couldn't help but feel sorry for his wife.

"My mother got up early in the morning to make rice porridge for us, and she had to walk a long way to go to school.

Gu Yi, who was brushing his teeth, came out and muttered: "Big brother, sister-in-law wastes time commuting to and from school every day!" Before you weren't at home, she ran back and forth four times a day, as if she said that it took more than half an hour to walk. ”

Gu Qi frowned slightly, and explained: "We are in the north of the city, Chongwen Middle School is in the south of the city, and we have gone around most of the city, if we don't go faster, it may take about an hour." ”

"Wow! It's so far away......"

Gu Qi thought for a moment and said lightly: "Hurry up and have breakfast, I have to go to work in a while." ”
