Chapter 43: Who Bullies Whom? ③

Nie Qiu almost wanted to sneer, "My mother's life naturally can't be exchanged for anything, but Li Kai ...... You don't mean to say, let me pay for my life, do you? Or do you want me to give you all my belongings in return for saving your life? ”

The aggressiveness in Nie Qiu's words made Li Kai speechless, and he looked at Nie Qiu, who was completely different from before, and was silent.

Seeing that Li Kai didn't speak, Nie Qiu snorted lightly, turned his head and continued to read the book in his hand.

After school, Nie Qiu had long forgotten what Wang Chaolei said to let her stay, and only remembered that Nie Aiwen had said that she was going to their house for dinner, so she hurried back to eat together.

Nie Aifang sandwiched the dishes for Nie Qiu, and said with a smile: "Eat slowly, there is still in the pot." ”

Nie Qiu buried his head in a mouthful of rice, ate the dish that Nie Aifang sandwiched to himself, smiled and gave Nie Aifang a chopstick beef, looked up with a smile and said, "Mom, you eat too." ”

"Qiuqiu is not fair, why does your mother have me?" Nie Aiwen smiled and stretched out the bowl in his hand and looked at Nie Qiu with a smile.

Nie Qiu smiled and gave Nie Aiwen a chopstick to stir-fry the fat sausage, "Uncle, you eat slowly, just treat it as your own home, you're welcome." She could see just now that her uncle didn't like to eat this fat sausage.

However, fat sausage is one of the cheapest meats on pigs, and it is not surprising that Nie Aifang will buy this Nie Qiu.

Sure enough, as soon as Nie Qiu put the fat intestine in Nie Aiwen's bowl, Nie Aiwen's face turned dark, and he looked at Nie Qiu with a sense of gnashing his teeth.

"What's wrong? Awen, didn't you like to eat fat sausages before? I bought three catties today and fried a lot, so let's eat it! Nie Aifang didn't realize it, she just smiled and filled a bowl of soup for Nie Qiu and Nie Aiwen and put it in front of the two.

"Sister, don't be busy, sit down and eat together!" Nie Aiwen picked up the fat intestine in the bowl, and ate the chopsticks fat intestine that Nie Qiu gave him, as if he was going to the execution ground.

"There's another dish that I'll eat when it's served. Eat first! Nie Aifang, who turned around and walked towards the kitchen, didn't hear it, but Nie Qiu looked down and kept picking up the rice, and trembled with laughter.

Nie Aifang took out a fried shredded pork with green peppers, and sat down to eat with Nie Qiu and Nie Aiwen, on the way, she kept sandwiching beef for Nie Qiu, and also kept sandwiching fat intestines for Nie Aiwen, Nie Qiu watched Nie Aiwen eat it with a smile, and couldn't help but feel funny.

After dinner, Nie Aifang was still washing the dishes, Nie Aiwen was about to say goodbye and leave, and Nie Qiu was ordered to send Nie Aiwen downstairs.

"Uncle, why don't you like to eat fat sausages, but your mother gives you a clip and you still have to eat it? If it were me, I wouldn't eat it. The two went downstairs, and Nie Qiu looked up and asked Nie Aiwen.

Nie Aiwen rubbed Nie Qiu's head with a smile, and said with a smile: "Children of your age, even if they endure hardship, they can't suffer as hard as before, your grandmother was so hungry that she ate loess back then, and she couldn't pull out after eating, but there was no way at that time, she was hungry!" When we were children, we were actually a lot better, at least we could eat bran, but I still couldn't eat a meal of meat for two or three months, your grandfather worked in the pig killing factory, and stealing pork would be dismissed, but every month the head of the team would send us some pig intestines, I liked to eat at that time, and your mother let me eat it, and when I grew up, I ate more meat, and I didn't like to eat fat intestines so much. When I was a child, I was already dying. ”

Nie Qiu was stunned, Nie Qiu had not experienced the things of that era, whether it was her parents' generation or her grandparents' generation, they were all intermediary intellectuals, intellectuals were very popular at that time, because Chairman Mao was advocating Marxism Mao Zedong Thought, and was advocating resisting superstition and believing in science, she didn't understand how people at the bottom of the countryside lived, and she didn't know how the rural people at that time were miserable.

"Tell me more, tell me more about the past." Nie Qiu looked at Nie Aiwen with longing in his eyes.

Nie Aiwen pinched Nie Qiu's nose and said with a smile: "Your grandfather's job of killing pigs is to eat public meals, just like the current civil servants, everyone wants to tie up our family, this is only after retiring as a soldier, only this luck, if you are not a soldier, it is not easy to eat public meals, our family is actually doing well." Before! You need a cloth ticket to buy cloth, a food ticket to buy grain, and a wine ticket to buy wine...... Those who sell cloth, sell rice, pull goods, and work in supply and marketing cooperatives are all people who eat public food, and there is a person who does public work at home, how many people envy it? ”

Nie Qiu nodded, looking up at Nie Aiwen, "What happened later?" ”

"Later, with the reform and opening up, there were more part-time jobs, and eating public meals was not a popular job. Your grandfather is old, he has retired, and he receives a retirement allowance of more than a dozen yuan a month. Later, because our family was an outsider in the village, we were only allocated two acres of land. It's not easy to bring me and your mother up. ”

Later, in fact, without Nie Aiwen to say, Nie Qiu could guess that Nie Aifang and Nie Aiwen grew up, and they both came to work in this city. She also didn't hear Nie Aifang talk about her parents in her hometown, that is, her grandparents and grandmothers, presumably they were also immortals.

"Alright, let's send it here!" Nie Aiwen stood still and said to Nie Qiu with a smile: "Go back quickly, go to bed early, you have to go to class tomorrow!" ”

Nie Qiu smiled and nodded, standing under the street lamp and waving to Nie Aiwen who was walking away, "Uncle, goodbye." ”

Nie Aiwen turned around and waved his hand at Nie Qiu, "Go back!" Be careful when walking, there are no street lights in the stairwells of the complex. ”

Nie Qiu smiled and nodded, "Okay." After saying that, Nie Qiu turned around and went home.

Nie Aifang had just finished washing the dishes, and when she heard the sound of Nie Qiu entering the house, she was busy wiping her hands on the apron on her body, "Come over and let my mother see, is this the dress your uncle bought for you?" ”

Nie Qiu smiled and nodded, pulled up the hem of her skirt and turned around under Nie Aifang's signal, listening to Nie Aifang's praise one by one, "Okay, it's really good, it's different from what we bought." Qiuqiu, don't worry, when the Chinese New Year comes, my mother will buy you a skirt like this. ”

Nie Qiu smiled and shook his head, "It's enough to have one skirt like this, how can I buy another one?" She also saw the brand of the skirt when she changed her skirt, it was the brand she had always liked, such a skirt would probably cost two or three thousand yuan, their family did not allow such a fee, Nie Aifang could have such a heart, which made her feel very happy.

"By the way, Qiuqiu, where did you buy the food you bought yesterday? This morning, I went to the university gate to set up a stall, and the college students there said that they didn't make as good food as last night at the night market. I think it's a matter of the dish. I also went to the vegetable market today to see it, and it was not as good as the food you bought yesterday. Nie Aifang didn't answer Nie Qiu's question, just asked. also secretly decided that she must buy some decent clothes for her daughter during the New Year, Qiuqiu used to be young and didn't know how to dress up, but now that she knows how to dress up, she is even happier.

"I bought it from one of my classmates, and I don't know where they set up their stall." Nie Qiu smiled reluctantly, in fact, it doesn't feel good to lie, if you tell a lie, you have to use other lies to round this lie, and the words that come out of your mouth can't be changed, there is nothing more uncomfortable than this.

When I came back from the stall at night, it was past early morning, Nie Qiu was lying on the bed, and when he entered the space, all he saw were some rotten vegetable patches. Nie Qiu looked at it in a daze, she remembered how difficult it was for Nie Aiwen to say at that time, these dishes actually don't need to be rotten, there are so many dishes! What a pity.

"Nie Qiu, don't be sad." Seeing Nie Qiu looking at a piece of withered vegetables in a daze, Huo comforted softly: "Look, there are tender shoots growing in that withered vegetable leaf. ”
