Chapter 221: Chinese New Year's Eve
Chinese New Year is a big event, and in this last week, no matter what is at hand, everyone rushes to deal with it before the end of the year.
On the fourth day after Qin Huairu was taken away, someone came to the police station, and Qin Huairu's verdict came down.
Because she had a good attitude in admitting her guilt and took the initiative to cooperate with the investigation of the Public Security Bureau, she was sentenced to eight years of squatting.
Tomorrow she will be transferred from the detention center to the fence, and today she asked her family to bring some daily necessities.
Jia Zhang's family was embarrassed, and he couldn't live or die, and in the end, he was a small person who followed the people from the police station with a big burden.
He Yuzhu looked at the small figure of the stick terrier, and couldn't tell what it was like in his heart.
For Qin Huairu, he didn't have any sympathy for this woman, he only felt that she deserved it.
It's just that the three children of the stick terrier, Xiaodang, and Huaihua are bitter.
Xiaodang and Huaihua are still young, and they don't understand many things, but the stick terrier is different.
He may have been able to predict what a mother who was squatting on the fence would mean to his life.
On the twenty-ninth day of the lunar month, under the auspices of the three masters, another general meeting of the whole house was held.
Saying goodbye to the old and welcoming the new year, writing couplets, and celebrating the Spring Festival are all major events in the courtyard.
It is worth mentioning that the Guangfu and Guangdang of the second uncle's family have also returned.
When I came back, I was wearing new clothes and carrying a lot of things in both hands, and I was beaming.
Everyone in the courtyard could see that the two children had not only grown taller, but also gained weight.
It seems that the life of the master is not bad.
At least it's better than at home!
The second aunt couldn't close her mouth happily, and was busy making food for the two children.
Although the second uncle was unhappy, he looked at the tall son of the two people, and it was the New Year, and he didn't want to make the chickens fly and the dogs jump, so he had to drink stuffy wine with peanuts alone.
In the Chinese New Year's Eve, some people began to set off firecrackers one after another, and the children in the yard also took small firecrackers to set off.
Only the stick terrier was alone, with his two younger sisters standing aside to watch.
In the past, during the Chinese New Year, he loved to set off firecrackers, but he didn't have the money to buy them, so he always pestered his mother to buy a few more.
During the Chinese New Year this year, he had the money to buy firecrackers, but he didn't have the heart to set off firecrackers.
Wearing a new cotton jacket and new cotton pants that my grandmother had changed, although my body was warm, my heart was cold.
In the evening, He Yuzhu picked up the deaf old lady and called the old man and his mother-in-law to the house to celebrate the New Year together.
There are many people, and it is lively.
An uncle and an aunt took Xiaojun Lingxi to Jia's house to spend the New Year with Jia Zhang's family and three children.
The rest of the dishes are all placed in Jia's house, but Jia Zhang's family can't close his mouth.
Xiaodang and Huaihua ate with a round belly, a mouth full of oil, and played in the yard with Xiaojun and Lingxi.
Carrying a small bench, the stick terrier sat at the door of the house and watched the other people's families reunite.
On the night of the Chinese New Year's Eve, the yard must be lit all night.
The light shone on the face of the stick terrier, and Lou Xiao'e found that his cheeks were obviously sunken.
Yes, in the few days after Qin Huairu was taken away, the stick terrier lost a lot of weight.
He sat alone in the doorway, his eyes blank, tears slowly pouring out.
The sound of firecrackers all over the yard, the laughter of children, and the noise of adults seemed to be far, far away from him.
He could only see it, but he couldn't touch it. Those joys no longer belong to him.
Lou Xiao'e's belly was already very big, and He Yuzhu gave her a pulse, saying that she should be born in early February.
Lou's father and Lou's mother went home after eating and staying for a while, and Yushui also went back to his house to review.
The college entrance examination is coming up next year, and she has to seize all the time to study.
He Yuzhu helped the deaf old lady to the backyard, and Lou Xiao'e stood at the door of the house, her eyes naturally falling on the stick terrier.
"Terrier."
Lou Xiao'e shouted and beckoned to him.
The stick terrier came back to his senses and saw Lou Xiao'e calling him, so he got up from the small bench and walked over to Lou Xiao'e:
"Aunt Lou."
"It's the New Year, let's eat a piece of candy."
As Lou Xiao'e spoke, she took out a handful of candy from her pocket and stuffed it into the stick terrier's hand.
There are white rabbit toffee, fruit candy, halva.
"Hey, thank you, Aunt Lou."
The stick terrier took the candy, took a piece of it blankly, peeled off the candy wrapper and stuffed it into his mouth.
The sudden sweetness made his eyes squint slightly.
"Stick terrier, you'll be eight years old during the Chinese New Year."
Lou Xiao'e touched the head of the stick terrier and said softly:
"You have to eat well, study well, sleep well, and take care of yourself.
You are the only man in your family, and if you fall ill, who will take care of Xiaodang and Huaihua."
"Well, I see, Aunt Lou."
The stick terrier nodded, his eyes were red, and he finally held back his tears.
He knew that his mother was arrested by the police, and there was a reason for Uncle He.
It's not that he didn't want to hate Uncle He, but sometimes he hates his mother even more, and hates why she keeps doing it even though she knows that those things are wrong.
Hates her for being able to do anything in order to make money.
However, he hated himself even more, hated that he was incompetent, and always let his mother worry about it.
Or, what he hates the most is his dad, if he hadn't died early, wouldn't his mother have to be like this?
However, the stick terrier never had a trace of hatred for Lou Xiao'e in his heart.
She was the only one in the yard who had beaten herself, but she was teaching her a lesson as if she were a man.
No one has ever told him that stealing is wrong, that there is a price to be paid for doing something wrong, that you should not get involved in adult things, and that you can do what you can do well......
There was never anyone who could listen to him quietly, encourage him, help him, even if his mother had done so many excesses to them.
The stick terrier has thought countless times in his heart, how good it would be if he was Lou Xiao'e. new
Just like now, everyone in the courtyard is laughing so happily, only Aunt Lou saw him sitting quietly and came over to give him candy.
The stick terrier stood quietly beside Lou Xiao'e, motionless and silent.
Lou Xiao'e seems to be exuding a powerful force, encircling the stick terrier little by little.
In a trance, the stick terrier felt that the person standing next to him was not Aunt Lou, but his mother.
That warmth and tranquility only existed in the deep, deep places of his memory.
He vaguely remembered that when his father was still around, his mother seemed to be like this.
When He Yuzhu came back from the backyard, he looked at the stick terrier standing against his daughter-in-law, and the two of them inexplicably looked like a pair of mother and son.
"Ahh
Realizing the thought that popped up in his mind, He Yuzhu immediately removed this strange thought from his mind.
This is my daughter-in-law, my daughter-in-law!
"Daughter-in-law, it's cold outside, let's go inside."
He Yuzhu walked over quickly and held Lou Xiao'e's hands.
A faint smile appeared on Lou Xiao'e's face:
"It's okay, it's not cold, I'll see them fire their guns later." By the way, didn't we buy firecrackers, hang them out and let the stick terriers play with them."
"Yes, I bought ten hangers, enough for him to go from the first day of junior high to the fifteenth."
He Yuzhu said with a smile, went into the house and took out two hundred firecrackers and handed them to the stick terrier:
"Be careful, don't fall into your own hands!"
"Hey, I see, thank you Uncle He."
Somehow, the stick terrier suddenly became happy, took the firecrackers, joined the little friends in the yard, and began to set off firecrackers.
