Chapter Eighty-Five: Reaping the Consequences

Mao Mao hurriedly greeted him enthusiastically and said, "Brother Qiwa-"

"I heard my dad works in your brick factory?"

"Yes-" Mao Mao replied very straightforwardly: "I'm also old, and my legs and feet are not smooth in farm work, so he beckons me to burn the kiln, or does his old job, and I can take care of it." ”

"Ahh ”

"Give—your father—and bring you back five hundred yuan," Mao Mao said, took out a wad of money from his bosom, counted it and stuffed it to Qiwa, and said, "Your father has confessed, let you buy some fertilizer, there is a shortage of manpower, and he is busy and can't come back for the time being." ”

Qiwa took the money, looked at Yuxia with a depressed face, and then looked at what Hongbin wanted to say, but couldn't speak:

“……”

"I haven't slept well for two nights, you and Yuxia go to Qiva's house," Mao Mao turned around, looked at Yuxia and Hongbin, and said, "Explain this to my sister-in-law." ”

Hongbin nodded happily, Yuxia was a little awkward, and said, "What do you say?" ”

"What's that? I said—" Hongbin said confidently, "because we both mentioned this matter together in Linghou." ”

"Ahh ”

"Oops—it's nothing, look at what makes you nervous—" Hongbin said disapprerovingly, "Let's go—"

Mao Mao led Zhou Jian back to his home to sleep, and in this way, Liu Maomao once again resolved a turmoil; The next day, before dawn, they went to take the car and left, but, for now, Zhou Jian still has a home and can't return, and Qiwa's "two-pole" temper makes him unpredictable.

Zhou Jian returned to the brick factory, and Liu Maomao was going to the city to see his mother.

"Mother-I'm back-" Mao Mao shouted loudly as soon as she entered the door: "Mother-"

"Mao Mao-" Chun Tao hurriedly walked out on crutches, knocking back and forth, shouting: "Mao Mao is back." ”

Mao Mao was holding a big bag of things in one hand, and went up to support Chun Tao with the other hand, so that she could sit on the stool.

"What's going on? Brick factory these times? ”

"Liang Liang went, and Jianbo also went," Mao Mao said very happily, "They went, and I was very happy in my heart." ”

"Yes-in addition to being a gossip, you are actually quite a good person," Chun Tao said with a smile full of joy: "Everyone in our village knows that he is a good hand." ”

"I didn't say anything about the bricks burned by Jianbo."

"Where's Liangliang? What kind of work do you want the baby to do? ”

"I can't stop, leave this here."

"You Aunt Qiuye, to hand over the baby to you is to trust you, but you have to take good care of him, Liangliang this baby Han-" Chun Tao said and leaned his cane against the bed, and continued to smile and said: "Liangliang, this baby has been unable to rest since he was a child, and he is very diligent." ”

"I went home this time and gave Aunt Akiba 6,000 yuan, of which 1,000 was Zhang Zhongwang's meeting gift." Mao Mao looked at her mother affectionately and said, "That's his salary." ”

"So many?" Chun Tao suddenly put away her smile: "Do you partners know?" Don't let them say you're biased. ”

"No, Zhang Zhongwang also recognized Liangliang as his godson," Mao Mao giggled and said: "Hehehe, Zhang Zhongwang was very happy, saying that Liangliang and him have father and son, that is, they look quite alike." ”

"There are no books written by coincidence, and sometimes there are some things that are really unclear." Chun Tao smiled and said, "Maybe that's the fate between people." ”

Chun Tao listened to Mao Mao very patiently, and told Chun Tao in detail about the process of going back with Zhou Jian this time, and Chun Tao was overjoyed.

"Maomao-you-" Chun Tao said in a beautiful voice, "Did you find it?" You are more and more like your uncle, but you are more tactful than him, his temper is too dry, if not, he is still alive now. ”

"If only I could be like grandpa, no-mother-" Mao Mao sighed and said, "My grandfather's righteousness, I will never be able to catch up." ”

Chun Tao couldn't help but feel a little surprised, but she still had no choice but to deny it, no matter how angry she was, she wouldn't do anything hurtful, after all, we were born in a poor family.

Chun Tao sighed deeply.

"What's wrong—mother—" Mao Mao tilted her head to look at Chun Tao and said, "You have something on your mind?" ”

"Let's live in this house."

"What's wrong with this house?" Mao Mao looked at her mother's face suspiciously, and asked, "Didn't you say that it was given to us?" I'm still thinking about closing the property. ”

"Rong Ping's mother has been here......"

"What did you say?" Mao Mao didn't wait for Chun Tao to finish speaking, and asked eagerly: "Did something happen to her?" ”

"Hey-this old woman is not a serious person, she speaks with prickliness, which is unacceptable, the transfer is okay, and the transfer is in Niuniu's name."

"Hehe-that's good, then it's in Niuniu's name."

"I don't like to hear you when you say this," Chun Tao said with a serious face: "Niuniu has grown up and got married, where do we live?" Where do you live when you get married? Niuniu and her grandmother, it's just nonsense, duplicity, she said good things before, and now she has to change her hexagram, is this a human thing? ”

"How much is this house worth now?" Mao Mao asked Chun Tao seriously: "Do you know? ”

"I went out and asked, it's worth thirty or forty thousand yuan," Chun Tao said reluctantly: "The house price will still rise in the future." ”

"What did Aunt Rong Ping say?"

"What can she say? She is not at home, she doesn't care what she says, she Rongping doesn't dare to say anything. Chun Tao touched the cane, held it in her hand, and then said: "What Rong Ping said means is to transfer the ownership to your name, and Zhihao said the same." ”

"Let's not fight with them, isn't it just thirty or forty thousand yuan?" Mao Mao said disapprecantly: "We have money now, not before, what are you afraid of?" ”

"Bragging again, how much money can you have?"

"Like this house, why don't you buy three or four of it?"

"Is there that much money?" Chun Tao asked in surprise: "How much does that cost-"

"I'll give you a passbook when I come back, you keep it well," Mao Mao said naturally: "The business of the brick factory is also good, the income is also considerable, I also have a share, and I have saved some money in the past two years, hello, there is a suitable house here, let's buy a set." ”

"It would be nice if this was the case," Chun Tao didn't have a trace of a smile on his face, but looked much calmer, and said, "In the future, we will have our own house, and we will live in a steady heart." ”

"How is Niu Niu studying? Does she come back often? Mao Mao looked at her mother's face and asked: "Niuniu often comes back in those days, and these times, I heard that there is an exam, and the number of times I come back is not so diligent." ”

"Hey—" Mao Mao scratched his head and sighed, trying to say something, but he held back when the words came to his lips.

"That Rongping and Xiu, I have been pounding Niuniu, I don't think Niuniu's heart is here with my mother," Chun Tao said sadly: "Niuniu is also older, my eyes are not angry, I am still a visually impaired, I have never been to a parent-teacher conference, Niuniu doesn't want me to go, I'm afraid I will embarrass her, there is a way: Son is not ugly, it seems that this girl's heart has changed." ”

Mao Mao sat there silently, silent, he glanced at his mother with pity, licked his lips vigorously with his tongue, and stopped for a while.

"I don't want to worry about it, but now the good thing is that we have money, and we can live a prosperous life in the future." Mao Mao looked at her mother and comforted: "There is food and drink, and what are you afraid of wearing?" Isn't it all about those coins now? ”

"What you said is shallow, Niu Niu is a piece of my mother's heart-"

"I'll take the time to see Niuniu," Mao Mao said helplessly: "After all, she grew up in the countryside, and she should be very sensible." ”

"That's right, Niuzi often says that she misses her brother, and often asks me when you'll come back." A smile gradually appeared on Chun Tao's face, and she said, "Besides, you two grew up together, and when she was a child, you were the only one who loved her the most." ”

Although Chun Tao said this, but Niu Niu ruthlessly snubbed herself, making her feel lost and painful, some of her words she just said lightly to Mao Mao, in fact, she was very afraid of Niu Niu, so she became more and more estranged from herself, for this Chun Tao has been insomnia for a long time, she came to the city to be able to be with Niu Niu, not to let Niu Niu be angry, but the current situation makes Chun Tao's heart suspended, and she is afraid all day long.

Mother's kind of helpless sadness, Mao Mao can see it, and see it very clearly, this is something Mao Mao did not expect, Mao Mao felt tricky, in this increasingly prosperous city, it is also the easiest environment to create a vanity, not to mention the rural people who were so poor before that they were more likely to be greedy, easier to be selfish, including their own minds, which are also expanding uncontrollably;

Save Niuniu, the only thing is that Liu Maomao does not lose confidence is that he is already a well-known brick factory owner, and he can also take out money to show off, but it is a very difficult thing to make a person's heart settle down, how to make his mother's heart comfortable, this problem is gradually heavy in Maomao's heart, he wants to find Niuniu, sit down alone with Niuniu, and patiently enlighten her.

Mao Mao was carefully planning this plan, he racked his brains to think about how to make Niuniu and her mother get along cordially like before, and not lose the relationship between Niuniu and Shen Rongping and Xiu, Shen Rongping said well;

Niuniu's grandmother show, listening to her mother's tone, this is a difficult guy to deal with; But how did Uncle Gao win the show at that time? Mao Mao couldn't help but smile when he thought of Uncle Gao, at this moment Mao Mao felt extra missed, that resourceful grandfather, if his old man was alive, would his Shen Rongping's family dare to act easily? Maomao decided to stay and stay at home for a few days, first, to accompany her mother, and second, to meet Niuniu, and the brother and sister have not seen each other for a long time.
