Chapter 188: Sleepless Night
Li Li and Sun Wei have been in love for so long, and she found that Sun Wei has an advantage, that is, he is decisive in doing things and does not drag his feet, which is vividly displayed on the way to buy paint, and it also pleases Li Li even more.
The temperature is already low in winter, and as soon as the car runs out of the square, the wind blowing on the face is like a fine burr wrapped in ice, which makes people hurt and numb. Originally, when she went to the second factory, because when she sat behind Sun Wei, she was covered by Sun Wei, and Li Li didn't feel how cold it was, but now Li Li is sitting in the sidecar, her lower body curled up with a windshield and can bear it, but her upper body is blown by the wind because it is not covered, and there is no warmth in her whole body, and she can't help but shiver when she is freezing.
Sun Wei found out about all this not long after he ran, so he hurriedly lowered his speed and slowly slid forward. He thought that he was going to take off his clothes to her, but seeing that he was only wearing a leather coat, Li Li would definitely not agree if he really took it off. But how can this be done? Li Li is a girl, and she is frozen, isn't it even more uncomfortable than freezing herself! Don't run again! I have to think of a way to do it, or I have to talk to Li Li about it, do it another day or send her back first. Thinking like this, Sun Wei parked the car on the side of the road, got out of the car, came over and pulled Li Li up and said, "It's frozen!" As he spoke, he took advantage of the situation to grab her hands and put them in his arms to warm them, and told Li Li what he thought.
Li Li's hands were like popsicles, cold and stiff. She didn't expect Sun Wei to have such a warm move, and she knew that it hurt people, and her frozen heart melted in an instant. Usually the two are together, and more emotional exchanges are just expressions between words, although there are occasional delicate movements between the limbs, but more are mutual requests or giving, and Sun Wei is so natural this time, so that Li Li really feels her status in Sun Wei's heart and Sun Wei's care and love for herself from the heart.
put it on Sun Wei's hot chest, warmed his hands, and sweetened his heart. She couldn't bear it, she was afraid of freezing Sun Wei, but she didn't want to lose this sweet moment. Hearing Sun Wei say this, he thought for a while and said, "Let's not do that!" Aunt Xinlan is in a hurry to paint, if we don't go to what we promised, what should Aunt Xinlan think of the two of us? Besides, we're all out so far, there's no need to turn back! I'll bear with me! ”
"Endure what!? Our aunt's business must be done, but we can't bear the sin! Let me figure it out. As he spoke, there happened to be a haberdashery store next to him that caught Sun Wei's eyes, and seeing people shopping in and out, Sun Wei said in his heart, there must be gloves here, and let me go in and have a look, without saying more. So, he asked Li Li to guard the car and trotted into the department store by himself. The store is not big, and the counter is slipped from one end to the other, and all the goods are in full view. Sun Wei's original intention was to find gloves, but he didn't expect that the first thing that caught his eye was a red woolen scarf. He asked the salesman to take it out and take a look, and as soon as his hand came into contact, he was attracted to it. The feel is so soft! That's it! Sun Wei made a decision without the slightest hesitation, then picked out the gloves, paid for it, and walked out of the store with it. When he returned to the car, he handed the gloves to Li Li, and then put the scarf around Li Li, looking left and right, only to feel that Li Li looked better the more she looked, and Li Li was embarrassed to see it, so he used the gloves to beat Sun Wei. Here, Sun Wei hurriedly hugged Li Li and said with a smile: "It's really good, it's really a person with clothes and a horse with a saddle, this scarf is warm with you, not to mention, just saying that this is beautiful makes people unbearable!" ”
Li Li didn't expect him to buy gloves but bought this back. Although I think it is best for Sun Wei to discuss with himself, after all, such a good thing is not cheap, but Sun Wei has already bought it back, what else can he say! Besides, he bought it for himself, and he couldn't cold his heart no matter what. Li Li thought like this, enjoying the warmth brought by Sun Wei, and couldn't help but feel happiness overflowing her face, praising Sun Wei and saying, "Do you know? It's the best thing you've done in all this time you've known! ”
Listening to Li Li praise herself, Sun Wei was proud. He didn't say much, let Li Li sit down again, and then stepped into the car in a chic manner, started the motorcycle, the car slid slowly, and after a while, it ran quickly again. In this way, they first went to the labor market outside the south gate, and found out from the workers the detailed address of the paint sold and the current work market, and then went to the place where the paint was sold, ordered the workers and the paint, paid the deposit, and agreed to work in the new house during the working hours of the factory the next morning, and settle the bill.
……………………
The second day after Xinlan returned to Xijing, it happened to be a Saturday.
Here in his hometown, as soon as Lu Dongwan, who had eaten lunch, put it down, he left Liuqin to be busy in the kitchen, and he came to the carpentry shed and started to get busy. Yes, this wedding date is approaching day by day, and he still has a lot of busy marriage, but the work he promised to do for other people's families will take a few days to finish, and he can't help but hurry up.
Lu Dong used to work very homely, and he would hold back his energy and hurry up when he had a little work, so he neglected Liuqin a little, but fortunately, Liuqin also knew his strength, so he didn't bother him too much, and he helped if he could, and when he couldn't help, he went to boil him tea, brewed a cup of cold, and watched him busy; Occasionally, when he was tired of sitting, he went to talk to Guizhi; From time to time, I also go to the Four Eyes Well Square to see the excitement. Now, with this wedding date urging, Liu Qin doesn't bother him anymore. But she was afraid that Lu Dong would use herself, so after she was busy finishing the kitchen work, she made tea for Lu Dong as usual, and then went to sit on the side and knit a sweater for Lu Dong.
In this way, Lu Dong was working in the shed, Liu Qin sat outside the shed knitting a sweater to accompany Lu Dong, and the two said a few words about their marriage from time to time, until Lu Dong felt tired and thirsty and came over to drink tea, Liu Qin put down the work in his hand, came over to put the clothes on Lu Dong's body, and said to Lu Dong with concern: "If you are tired, take a break, take it easy, don't stretch your muscles but delay the time." ”
"It's okay, I'll touch it!" After Lu Dong finished speaking, he took a sip of tea, covered the cup and put it on the stool, took off the coat that Liu Qin had just put on, stretched his waist, relieved the fatigue of his body, and prepared to do it again.
Liu Qin on the side saw it and knew that he was a little tired, so he hurriedly persuaded: "I know that you are tired when I look at your posture, and you still say that you have an appointment?" Take a break! It's not like this moment. As he spoke, he went to get his clothes and put them on for Lu Dong.
When Lu Dong saw it, he had to put on his clothes and sit on the small chair again to rest, but when he rested, he didn't forget what he said just now: "If you don't hurry up, you can't do it, you really don't have time!" Seeing that the two of us are approaching day by day, there are three things that must be done in advance. ”
"What three things?" Liu Qin listened and asked hurriedly.
"First, the doors and windows of our house need to be repainted, and they must be new when the time comes; The second is that we must hurry up and discuss with our parents to see if we can save this dowry or let them convert it into money for you, otherwise we will have to work hard to consign it when we move back, which will be time-consuming and costly; Third, the most important thing that must be done is that we have to hurry up and get the marriage certificate. Lu Dong listened to the question and replied.
Hearing Lu Dong say this, Liu Qin thought for a while and said: "I think the most important thing about these three things is my dowry, if it's too late, my parents really settle into things, and it's too late, or I'll go back today and talk to the two of them first, and see what they think about it." But I really can't say it, you said that my parents are just my daughter, and they have been planning for me for a long time, and my father is still working as an accountant in the team department, you don't let them pretend to be face-stricken, how can this old couple get by? Besides, there is also my level, you talk about classmates and friends like Gui Zhi who are not married to send relatives in a queue, what do you say I should do when the time comes, is it difficult to come empty-handed, how embarrassing! As for the painting and marriage certificate, you can do it. Liu Qin thought and said.
"Why don't you say it, you're not in the same situation as me? Who would have thought of this! When I first learned to do woodwork, I wanted to learn a handicraft, and I also had an idea, that is, I wanted to wait until I got married, I must make myself the most fashionable and durable cabinet, but I didn't expect that at this critical moment, I couldn't do anything, what do you say?! Isn't it very cowardly, which makes people very unwilling! But what our mother managed to do, we can't help but go back, otherwise everything will be solved! Lu Dong said with regret.
"Yes! It's a bit unwilling. You said it would be nice if there was no such thing! It really affects people's moods, or you don't move back, I'm not a city hukou, and I don't have to live separately in two places, let's work hard and we can't take care of ourselves, maybe it's better than living in the city in the future, so we can do a good job of our marriage, after all, it's this time for a lifetime! Liu Qin said, whining, half joking and half true in her words.
Hearing Liu Qin say this, Lu Dong didn't feel her mood! To be honest, if his parents still interfered in his marriage, he would really be able to stay here. But now there is no such thing, for the sake of future life, he still thinks it is good to return to the city, otherwise, why do people want to turn into commercial grain, just run for this, he also thinks that he should move back. But he didn't want Liuqin to have more ideas, so he went to talk to Liuqin about his future life fantasies, and promised that when he came to Xijing City in the future, he would make a set of fashionable furniture to make up for all this, and enlighten Liuqin for a while, until Liuqin's mood improved. In this way, the two of them were talking here over and over again, knowing that it was impossible to change, there was no way, what should be done had to be done, and what should have been done had to be rushed, so Lu Dong got up again and started to work, and Liu Qin also felt that it was time to prepare for dinner, so he got up and went to work in the kitchen.
But what Liu Qin didn't expect was that she was disturbed by things, so she only cared about talking to Lu Dong, and ignored that today was Saturday. Busy and busy, and when Lu Dong's two twin sisters Xiaocun and Xiaohua, who went to high school in the city, came home in the middle of the afternoon, they happened to meet Lu Nan, who went to school in other places and occasionally went home, also went home at this time, so the three of them came back together, and there were three more people in the family in an instant, which made Liu Qin, who only considered cooking for three people, busy all of a sudden, after all, it was not a matter of just adding a bowl of water. She didn't dare to go and wash the greens and sweet potatoes again as usual. Fortunately, Xiaocun and Xiaohua were clever, and when they saw Liu Qin going to choose vegetables and wash vegetables, they were busy coming over to help, and Lu Nan went to help press the water. In this way, the pressurized water well became a stage in an instant, and several people chattered and commanded each other, and after a while, the work that Liu Qin was going to do was finished. Here, Liuqin began to cook, so Xiaocun and Xiaohua went to help climb Liuqin again.
Lu Nan is a little uncle, although he came back from summer vacation and met Liu Qin twice, but because he didn't stay at home much because he was working in the field, he naturally didn't talk much, so he was even more embarrassed to talk to his sister-in-law, so he had to go to the shed to find his brother Lu Dong. Lu Dong saw that it was his younger brother coming, and he hurriedly put down the work in his hand. After asking for warmth, he told Lu Nan that his mother came back two days ago to do the relocation.
When Lu Nan heard this, he felt a "chuckle" in his heart, and couldn't help but say, "I thought it would be like this." During the summer vacation, listening to our father and you talk about this, I felt that with our mother's personality, she would not come back if she didn't do it, and when she came back, it would definitely be done. But, brother, have you heard from our mother what I will do here in the future? ”
Looking at his younger brother in front of him, who was as tall as himself, Lu Dong didn't know how to answer him for a while. He heard it from his parents' conversations, but he just said that Lu Nan is old and admitted to school, and the school assignment in the future is equivalent to taking care of himself, so he doesn't have to worry about it, as for the rest, there is really nothing. He couldn't lie to his younger brother about this, so he told Lu Nandao what his parents meant and what he thought: "Lu Nan, you have been admitted to school and have eaten commercial grain, you are a city person, and you will be assigned in the future, and the future will definitely be bright with a diploma, I don't think our parents will let you go with me, if it were me, I would not choose to move back." Unless you will go to school in the past. ”
"Brother, then you don't know. Our school is a school in the Central Plains, and the source of students is also local, and the distribution in the future will definitely be in our county, and it will not be assigned to Xijing! Looks like I'm going to stay here alone! Lu Nan said helplessly, and his head lay on his knees.
As he was talking, Xiaohua and Xiaocun surrounded him excitedly. It turned out that after Liu Qin told them about their mother's return, she asked them to come over to listen to the situation, and then went to cook again.
"Brother, you go to school in the city, tell me, will we be discriminated against when we go to the city in the future?" Although Xiao Cun was happy, she was still a little worried, she didn't look at the situation, and asked Lu Nandao when she came in.
"I don't think so! Sister. Isn't the high school we are in now also in the county seat, and aren't there also urban students in it? I haven't seen them do anything to us! Xiaohua didn't wait for Lu Nan to answer, and replied first.
"That's different. Our high school is at the junction of urban and rural areas, and there are still many students in the countryside and few in the city, how can you see it! Besides, we don't speak Mandarin yet, so I'm really worried! Xiao Cun continued.
The two of them talked, only caring about their own happiness, but after saying a few words, seeing that Lu Nan didn't pick up, they felt that he must have something on his mind, so they didn't dare to speak loudly anymore, so they secretly asked Lu Dong with a look.
Lu Dong couldn't reply to them. He originally wanted to persuade Lu Nan, but when the two of them came, he felt that he couldn't persuade Lu Nan again. He thought about taking them away first, and then talking about Lu Nan, but at this moment, he heard the car bell outside the door. He heard that it was the bell of his father's bicycle, so he said to Lu Nan: "Get up!" Our dad is back! And while he had spoken, he came out of the shed.
When Lu Nan, Xiaocun and Xiaohua heard this, they also hurriedly stood up and followed to greet them. But no matter how fast everyone was, they couldn't get as fast as Fusheng's car, and after talking, Fusheng entered the yard. When he got out of the car, he saw that the children were all back, and he immediately said happily: "Okay! Good! Even Lu Nan is back, and there is no need to send this telegram, I just announce it directly. ”
When Fusheng said this, only Lu Dong and Liu Qin knew what it meant. They couldn't say anything, so the sisters asked Fusheng curiously, "What's the matter!" ”
Fusheng listened to the question, only to know that Lu Dong and Liu Qin had not told them about the marriage, so he hurriedly took off a cloth bag from the car that Lu Dong had taken, took out a few cans of red paint from it and said, "Look what this is!" This is red paint, which indicates that our family is going to have a happy event! Your brother and your sister-in-law are getting married on New Year's Day, so I don't need to notify you when you come back, don't you! Isn't that just the right time to come back? On a cloudy morning, you can also help the house clean the windows and doors, and then we can paint the ......," Fusheng said happily.
But Lu Dong on the side felt that Lu Nanzheng was uncomfortable, and said that this was not the time, so he thought about reminding his father: "Dad! Lu Nanzheng is uncomfortable because he can't move back, let alone Liu Qin and me! ”
"What, did you see Xiao Cun and Xiao Hua happy that he was uncomfortable? Ha ha! Child! You're such a stupid boy! Don't look at your two younger sisters happy, in the future, it may not be who you will cry with them and who will laugh! Do you think they are there to be happy? You don't even want to think about it, when you go to a new place, you have to work and have no job, why don't you have to start again? When the time comes, you should watch, you should be the one who should laugh! When Fusheng heard this, he persuaded Lu Nan and spoke heartily, infecting everyone, and instantly helped Lu Nan untie the knot.
"Dad! I didn't mean that. I don't want to be separated from you! Lu Nan said a little embarrassed when he heard it.
"That's it, kid! Doesn't the little bird also have to leave her mother? Not to mention people. Besides, here in our family, although your brother is married, but your sister-in-law is still a rural hukou, our family will still have roots here in the future, what are you afraid of!? Maybe we'll be back sometime! Don't feel bad! Let's eat! After eating early, your brother will give it to your sister-in-law! Fusheng said and changed the subject.
After hearing this, everyone slowly eased up, so they opened the table to eat. During the meal, naturally mentioned the marriage and arrangement of Lu Dong and Liu Qin, everyone was happy for this good thing at home, but they were confused and worried about this unknown prospect......
Night is slowly falling, and the cold of winter is at a loss for those who have a hard day and a lonely life. After dinner, the helpless people had to climb into bed early. But who can tell that this is not a sleepless night!
