Chapter 12: The heart is in turmoil
The next day, early in the morning, when Wang Chongchen came back from practice, he saw that the door of his house was open, and the windows and curtains of the inner room were also opened.
"Brother is back!" Qin Huairu listened to the movement, and saw Wang Chong, who had just entered the house, through the Bogu shelf between the inner room and the living room.
"Sister Qin? When did you come over? ”
"Just came here for a while." Qin Huairu replied with a smile, and the feather duster in his hand did not stop, cleaning up the dust on the bookshelf.
"Your house is really clean, it's all men, and the stupid house is like a kennel compared to you." It is not a secret that Qin Huairu helps Silly Zhu clean up the house and wash his clothes on weekdays, and most of the leftovers that Silly Zhu brought back from the canteen are also for Qin Huairu.
"I prefer to be clean, by the way, I'll have to trouble wiping the tables, chairs and benches in the hall later, and tidy up the kitchen."
"Don't worry, my sister will wipe it clean."
"Then Sister Qin, you are busy first!"
While speaking, Wang Chong pushed the door into the bathroom, and after a while, the sound of rushing water came to Qin Huairu's ears.
Looking at the bathroom standing next to the kitchen, Qin Huairu's eyes were full of curiosity, when Wang reopened the bathroom and toilet, there was a lot of movement in the courtyard.
After many people have seen Wang Chong's bathroom and toilet, they have moved their minds, but the people who live in this courtyard, except for Wang Chong and Silly Zhu, which family is not dragging the family with a mouth, the house is almost unplugged, where is there any extra place to build a toilet, in the end, this matter will naturally be over.
Listening to the sound of rushing water, Qin Huairu's mind couldn't help but think of the whole picture of the bathroom and toilet she saw when she first came in just now, when she went to the toilet to get a basin for water.
An iron pipe goes along the wall, turns back from mid-air, forms a rain sprinkler, and at the bottom is a wooden bath barrel brushed with tung oil, nearly two meters long, seventy or eighty centimeters wide, Wang Chong must be lying in the bath barrel this time, turning on the faucet, while drenching water, while taking a bath!
Qin Huairu's mind couldn't help but think of Wang Chong lying naked in the bathtub, his thick chest and angular abdominal muscles soaked in the water, tilting his head and letting the dripping water column pour down his head.
Rao is a cheeky person who has been trained by Qin Huairu as a widow for three years, and he actually has a fever at the moment, so he just wants to pack up and leave Wang Chong's house quickly.
Qin Huairu had just cleaned up in the kitchen, and the sound of water in the bathroom stopped, and in a moment, the neatly dressed Wang Chong pulled open the door with wet hair and a half-dry white towel around his neck and walked out.
"Sister Qin, I'll have to bother you to take out the garbage when you leave later."
"No problem."
Wang Zhong took out a plate of cut braised beef, a small dish of oily secret sauce, and the boiled corn porridge that had been in the casserole from the cabinet.
"Sister Qin, have you eaten, do you want to eat some together?"
Qin Huairu looked at the white-flour steamed buns and braised beef on the table, secreted jin liquid in her mouth, tried her best to swallow the saliva in her mouth, and said forcibly: "No need, brother, you can eat it yourself, my sister had breakfast before going out!" ”
"Then I'm not going to be polite to you." Saying that, Wang Chong picked up the steamed bun and gnawed it down, two mouthfuls of steamed bread and meat together, and then drank a bowl of cold corn porridge, seeing that Qin Huairu next to him had a great appetite, fortunately, Wang Chong's eating speed was not slow, but there was no meat left in the steamed bun.
Qin Huairu hurriedly helped Wang Chong wash the dishes and clean up the kitchen before leaving.
Yushui watched Qin Huairu come out of Wang Chong's house, and asked with a shocked face, "Sister Qin, why are you here····· Coming out of Brother Wang's house? ”
Qin Huairu hurriedly took Yushui's hand and explained: "Don't get me wrong about Yushui, it's Brother Wang Chong who sees that my family is having a hard time, takes care of me, and hires me to clean up the house for him!" ”
"Brother Wang Chong hired you to help him clean up the house?" Yushui said with a surprised face, the shock on his face went a little, there is no need for Qin Huairu to joke about this kind of thing.
Qin Huairu said: "You think, he is a big man, where does he have the heart to clean up the house." ”
The surprise on Yushui's face gradually dissipated, Yushui was close to Qin Huairu's family, and naturally knew the difficulties in Qin Huairu's family, so he didn't say anything more.
It's just that seeing Wang Chong, Yushui couldn't help but ask about Qin Huairu, Wang Chong did this matter above board, so he was naturally not afraid of people knowing, so he admitted it directly.
Seeing that Wang Chongtan admitted it, Yushui thought that he had thought too much, and immediately stopped worrying about Qin Huairu cleaning up the house for Wang Chong, but changed his voice and asked in a twisted voice: "Brother Wang Chong, what are you doing with that ...... Is it with that Yu Haitang? ”
He Yushui is not Qin Huairu, a widow who doesn't even know where to throw her face, in this year, such a big girl with yellow flowers who has never even talked about the object, taking the initiative to ask a man about the object, it really requires the courage and determination of your younger brother.
"I'm with Yu Haitang?" Wang Zhong smiled and said, "No! Yu Haitang is indeed very beautiful, but she is beautiful and can't be eaten, a woman's youth is only a few years, what I want to find is gentle and virtuous, who knows how to hurt people, not the kind of person who wants me to change the law every day to coax her. ”
To be honest, there have been too many excellent women in the dungeon world, and Wang Chong has long had a standard for finding a partner.
Appearance is naturally also an important factor, but Wang Chong values his personality and temper more, how can the kind of fairy queen who is holding and coaxing someone look at it.
Now the king reselects the criteria for women, not to mention three from four virtues, but the most important thing is to be obedient, can live, and take care of the family, as for the level of education, it doesn't matter, even if it is illiterate who can't read, it doesn't matter, anyway, Wang Chong has time to teach slowly.
Hearing this, the corners of Yushui's cherry mouth on both sides of the mouth slowly curled up involuntarily, the willow eyebrows were crooked, and the smiling face was like a flower.
I couldn't help but secretly compare myself according to Wang Chong's requirements, gentleness and virtuousness must be no problem, my temper is also good, I am diligent in my work, and I can cook......
The more I thought about it, the brighter the smile on Yushui's face, looking at the tall and strong back in front of me, my thoughts drifted farther and farther, and I even thought of myself at home with my children.
Before the rain was most worried about Yu Begonia, Yu Begonia's beauty is obvious to all in the factory, although the rain is not bad from the lining, but there is still some gap compared with Yu Begonia, for fear that Wang Chong was hooked away by Yu Begonia, now listening to Wang Chong say this, the big stone that has been hanging in the heart of Yushui has finally fallen to the ground.
The big leaders in the mouth of the stupid pillar really came down, accompanied by Director Yang and other factory leaders, and visited the entire factory, mainly the production workshops.
The superior leaders are obviously very satisfied with the results of doubling the production efficiency of the rolling mill without investing too much cost, and are also very interested.
"Our next step is to rectify the various branches under the name of the rolling mill, but the scale of the branch is small, and the effect may not be as good as in the factory." Director Yang is now in high spirits and talks eloquently in front of a group of leaders.
Wang Chong, as the proposer and main executor of this plan, was naturally taken aside.
In those years, those who can become big leaders are either from the mountains of corpses and blood on the battlefield, or from underground intelligence personnel who have been lurking behind enemy lines for many years and have made outstanding achievements, or they are top talents in all walks of life.
The plan for the rectification of the rolling mill is not complicated, the most important thing is Wang Chong's industrial thinking model that transcends this era for decades.
First of all, we visited and inspected, and then everyone sat down together for a meeting, mainly by the main cadres of the rolling mill led by Director Yang to teach the leaders of the first cadre and the leadership of the brother factories to teach their experience and answer their questions.
But the rectification of this thing, not all the things are copied from the past, the actual situation of each plant is different, the leadership team is not the same, the rectification plan of the Red Star Rolling Mill is Wang Chong specifically for the rolling mill, after several months of research before giving out.
What is suitable for the Red Star Rolling Mill may not be suitable for other brother factories, as the saying goes: those who learn from me live, and those who resemble me die, which is the case.
Today, as the first chef of the rolling mill, the stupid pillar is destined to be unable to be idle, and he has been taking his apprentices to handle the ingredients since the afternoon to prepare for the evening banquet.
There are a lot of people who come back this time, and the leader is still the direct leader in charge of the rolling mill, although Director Li Huaide, who is in charge of logistics, does not deal with Director Yang, but he will not make trouble in receiving this kind of thing.
Silly Zhu didn't dare to slack off, he took out all his skills, in the end, he was the heir of Tan family cuisine, and he specially apprenticed to learn Sichuan cuisine, Silly Zhu's craftsmanship must not be said, and none of the leaders who ate did not say good.
When night fell, it was already dark, and Wang Chongcai returned to the courtyard with a smell of wine.
As soon as I entered the bathroom, I took a cold shower, washed off the smell of alcohol, changed my clothes and threw them into the basin, when there was a knock on the door.
"Brother Wang Chong, are you at home?"
"It's stuffy at home, the door is not locked, come in!"
Although it was early summer, the weather was already a little hot, and the doors and windows of Wang Chong's house were open, as if he was not worried about mosquitoes entering the house at all.
Rainwater held a steaming bowl of soup in his hand.
"My brother said you drank a lot of wine today, and this is my sobering soup!" The rain puts the decanting soup on the table.
"Then I'm not going to be polite to you." Wang Chongdao.
The corners of Yushui's mouth were lightly raised, revealing a shallow smile like a spring breeze, and two shallow dimples loomed.
If he hadn't gotten the system before, he had met a girl like He Yushui and rushed to the door by himself, Wang Chong would have fallen a long time ago, but now Wang Chong is no longer the Wuxia Amon of the past, and he has already developed resistance to women.
"Then Brother Wang Chong, you have a good rest, I won't bother you, remember to drink the sobering soup." Before the rain left, he didn't forget to remind Wang Chong.
Wang Zhong smiled and said, "Don't worry, I can't forget it." ”
The next day, early in the morning, Wang Chong came back from morning practice, and Qin Huairu was under the faucet outside the house, scrubbing the clothes that Wang Chong had changed yesterday.
"Xiao Wang is back!" When Qin Huairu saw Wang Chong, a smile immediately appeared on his face.
Wang Chongdao: "Sister Qin has worked hard! ”
"It's not hard!" Qin Huairu smiled and said, "Sister is used to it." ”
After a few words of greeting, Wang Chong went into the toilet to take a bath, and Qin Huairu also washed Wang Chong's clothes, dried them in the courtyard, and began to clean up the kitchen.
Wang Zhong sat at the edge of the dinner table, and suddenly sighed: "Brother Dongxu can marry such a virtuous daughter-in-law as Sister Qin, which is really enviable!" ”
Speaking of Jia Dongxu, Qin Huairu's face couldn't help but show a little gloom.
"Sister Qin, I'm sorry, I'm ······ for a while." Wang Zhong hurriedly explained.
Qin Huairu reluctantly squeezed out a wry smile: "It's all over, sister, it's okay, you don't have to blame yourself." ”
"Sister is a rural woman, what is there to envy."
Wang Chongdao: "What about rural women, I am also from the countryside, this girl from the countryside is diligent and capable, but she is more suitable to be a daughter-in-law than those pampered city girls." ”
Qin Huairu was a little surprised, but more of a person couldn't grasp it, she didn't know if Wang Chong's words were true or false, whether it was a compliment on her, or just Wang Chong's heart.
"Xiao Wang, you are also from the countryside?" Qin Huairu changed the subject.
Wang nodded and said: "That's not, Sister Qin, don't believe it, I don't do any worse than those decades veterans in the field." ”
"I really can't see it!" Qin Huairu looked at Wang Zhong with his head sideways, there was still a bit of quiet bookish air in his heroism, and his skin was not as dark as that of a peasant, no matter how he looked at it, he couldn't see the slightest peasant temperament.
Wang Zhong sighed with emotion: "Sister Qin, everything has been said here, let me ask one more question, Brother Dongxu has been gone for several years, what are your plans in the future?" ”
"Later?" Qin Huairu made a movement in his hand and said, "I'm thinking about raising the three of them now!" As for the future ······"
"We'll talk about that later."
Wang Zhong asked, "What about yourself?" A woman's youth is only a few years, if it passes, it will be gone, Sister Qin doesn't think about herself? ”
"And if a child doesn't have a father, he will definitely lack a lot of things when he grows up."
The reluctant smile on Qin Huairu's face became more and more bitter, and she didn't say anything more, just lowered her head and silently engaged in the hygiene of the kitchen.
In my mind, I couldn't help but remember that since I came to Wang Chong's house despite my mother-in-law's opposition, and after cleaning up the house for Wang Chong, my mother-in-law had a cold war with her, and she didn't say a word, and she kept a straight face all day long, and Qin Huairu's heart became more and more sour.
I clearly wanted to make more money, make the life of the family better, and think about the children, but my mother-in-law not only did not support herself, but she even did it.
Although Qin Huairu doesn't read much, she is not stupid, how can she not know what her mother-in-law is worried about, but Wang Chong is young and capable, and has a bright future, how can she look at herself as a widow of such an age and three children.
Thinking of her mother-in-law Jia Zhang's attitude, Qin Huairu's heart became more and more depressed.
Wang Chong didn't mean to stop: "Besides, Sister Qin, you are only in your twenties now, and there are still decades to live." ”
Qin Huairu's mouth opened, wanting to say something, but when the words came to his mouth, he didn't know how to speak.
I only heard Wang Chong still say: "Now is a new society, it is different from the old society before, and now the above policy encourages widows to remarry, you are still so young, so virtuous, and beautiful, don't worry about finding a partner."
But if you wait a few years, when you are old and your youth is gone, it will be difficult to find it when the time comes. ”
Qin Huairu was silent and did not answer, only silently doing the work in his hands.
Seeing that Qin Huairu never spoke, Wang Zhong asked, "Sister Qin, is there anything difficult about it?" ”
In the last copy world, Wang Chong had been in the officialdom for many years, and Sheng Hong's ability to observe words and feelings, and to meet the source left and right, had already been learned by Wang Chong, and he was still blue.
Qin Huairu obviously had something hidden in her heart, and Wang Zhong guessed that it must have something to do with her mother-in-law, Jia Zhang.
"No... Nothing..." Qin Huairu wanted to speak and stopped.
Wang Chongdao: "Sister Qin, I have read a lot of medical books before, and the books say that if this person is always holding things in his heart, thinking crankily, and in a bad mood, he will be easily depressed after a long time." ”
"If you are depressed for a long time, it is likely to lead to mental illness and all kinds of physical diseases, and if you really get to that time, it will be troublesome."
"Huh?" Qin Huairu was taken aback by Wang Chong's statement.
"So if there is something to keep in your heart, you should be sad alone, you have to think of ways to solve it, not drag it out, if you don't have an idea, then go and ask others, one person counts the short, and the two count the long."
"I ·····" Qin Huairu's heart was completely messed up.
"It's my mother-in-law!" Qin Huairu didn't continue to hide it after all, and said the troubles in her heart.
"She didn't agree with me coming to clean up the house for you, and since I came, she has had a cold face all day long, and she won't say a word to me······"
Before Qin Huairu finished speaking, Wang Chong burst out laughing.
Before Qin Huairu could be embarrassed, Wang Chong hurriedly explained: "Sister Qin, I'm sorry, I'm not laughing at you, I'm laughing at your mother-in-law!" ”
"Laughing at my mother-in-law?" Qin Huairu looked at Wang Chong puzzled.
Wang Zhong explained: "I really haven't seen this kind of mother-in-law who is desperately dragging her daughter-in-law back, didn't you tell her Sister Qin that I would pay you a salary?" ”
Qin Huairu said: "I told her!" ”
"Yes, it seems that your mother-in-law is worried about me!" Wang Zhong shook his head with a smile and said.
Qin Huairu didn't speak, but her slightly red cheeks and dodging gaze already said it all.
"Sister Qin, to be honest, I'm curious, it's clear that you are the one who makes money in your family, and you are supporting a large family, supporting a piece of the family, why did your mother-in-law take you to death?"
Wang Chong's voice suddenly changed.
"I ·····" Qin Huairu didn't know how to answer: "I don't know either." ”
Wang Chong said: "Why don't I give you an idea?" ”
"What's the idea?" Qin Huairu hurriedly asked, looking at Wang Chong with a faint expectation in his eyes.
Wang Chongdao: "Sister Qin, let me ask you a question, do you think you have done something wrong?" ”
"I'm not wrong!" Qin Huairu bit her lip and said in a firm tone.
Wang Chong looked at Qin Huairu and asked, "Since you are not wrong, who is wrong?" ”
Facing Wang Chong's gaze, Qin Huairu said, "Yes... My mother-in-law? ”
"Since it's your mother-in-law who is wrong, why are you upset?" Wang Chong's question stopped Qin Huairu again.
Looking at Qin Huairu, who shook his head, Wang Zhong said: "That's because your mother-in-law knows that you are kind-hearted, and she relies on her identity as an elder to take advantage of your kindness and take you to death." ”
Qin Huairu looked at Wang Chong stunned, "Isn't it appropriate to respect and be filial to your elders?" ”
"It really should be, but it is the elders who are old and virtuous, and the elders who are sensible and sensible are respected.
"Sister Qin, won't all the money in your family be in the hands of your mother-in-law, right?" Wang Zhong asked.
Qin Huairu nodded and said: "I am usually busy working in the factory, buying vegetables and cooking at home, buying grain and cloth, and my mother-in-law is mostly doing it. ”
Wang Chongdao: "After Brother Dongxu's accident, there should be a large amount of pension in the factory, which was also held by your mother-in-law?" ”
Qin Huairu nodded.
Wang Chongshu smiled and said, "No wonder your mother-in-law dares to show you face like this!" ”
Qin Huairu looked at Wang Chong in confusion, with inquiry in his eyes.
Wang Chongdao: "Give you a suggestion, find a way to hold the financial power of the family in your hands, you have to let your mother-in-law know that she is supported by you!" ”
