12 Come
Yu Pei came to Beicheng to give birth, she is 33 years old and belongs to the advanced maternal age, blood sugar is especially high in the third trimester, the local doctors in Yuancheng advised her not to risk walking, and the couple still insisted on taking the train to find Zhang's family.
When my brother and sister-in-law came to defect, Lu Qing naturally didn't say anything, and now that they are living so well with the Zhang family, there is no reason why the rest of their family can't be stained.
Lu Yong has been in Yuancheng for many years, high or low, taking over his parents' class to sit in an office in a steel mill, getting more than 3,000 yuan a month, idleness on weekdays, eating, drinking and having fun without saving money, and the family's income and expenditure are supplemented by his parents' pension.
He didn't care about Lu Qing's marriage, but when the rich family money in January and January hit the old man's card, he also became curious, learned a lot through Internet searches, and watched for a long time, and finally found an opportunity to come to Beicheng to explore the truth.
He made a score in his heart, and the wealth of the Zhang family he saw with his own eyes was still far beyond expectations, which was purely unexpected.
At dinnertime, Zhang Peiming specially rushed back from the company.
It is rare for the family to reunite, but Lu Qing is still happy and asked her aunt to prepare a lot of dishes.
During the meal, each person served a case of bird's nest, and Lu Yong pushed his share to Yu Pei with a shy face: "Come, you eat more." ”
Lu Qing looked at it and smiled: "How strange, I haven't seen you for a few months, and you have learned to love your wife?" There are still some at home, I asked my aunt to stew some more at night, and you can eat it before going to bed. ”
Lu Yong smiled and said happily: "This is now a great hero of the Lu family, don't dare to slack off." ”
Seeing that they didn't know why, Lu Yong patted Yu Pei's stomach proudly: "Boy, I just found out last month." ”
Lu Qing's smile froze when she heard this, and she subconsciously glanced at Lu Yinong beside her, she lowered her eyes and picked up the fish bones, without saying a word, as if she hadn't heard anything.
Zhang Peiming said on the side: "Boys and girls are the same, I have always wanted a daughter." ”
"Yes, yes," Lu Yong immediately raised his voice, "It's the same for boys and girls, don't I have a girl?" Have another son, make up both children and daughters, and make a 'good'. Pei Ming, if you like your daughter, ask Lu Qing for one. ”
"Why did it hit me again?" Lu Qing got up with a smile and added some red wine to Zhang Peiming's cup.
Lu Yong looked sharp, stretched out his legs and kicked the stool on the opposite side: "Get up and toast my uncle." ”
Lu Yinong raised his head and looked at him coldly.
I haven't seen her for a few months, but her daughter has changed a lot, she is no longer as pure and simple as she was in Yuancheng, she is dressed up and down her body everywhere, and even her hair has been finely maintained, and she can't see a trace of frizz.
Her gaze made Lu Yong very uncomfortable, and because Zhang Peiming was there, he still maintained his father's majesty.
"Isn't it rude? Do you have a sense of gratitude? Uncle has raised you for so long in vain, won't he be able to toast and thank him? ”
Zhang Peiming treats her gently and easy-going, and after getting along for a few months, he naturally doesn't pay attention to this set.
Raising the cup awkwardly, and putting the cup away was rude, Lu Yong pushed her into an embarrassing situation.
Lu Yi blushed.
"Can the family come to this set less? Say what to say thank you or not. Lu Qing couldn't help but complain about him.
Zhang Peiming covered her hand, picked up the wine glass again, and said with a smile: "Xiaoqing is right, Yinong is my niece, and thanking her is a blessing." I'll welcome you with a glass of wine. ”
Everyone raised their wine glasses and brushed off this embarrassing episode, Lu Yong smiled, but turned around and threw Lu Yinong a warning look.
When she was in Yuancheng, this look might have been able to shock her, but in the wider world, Lu Yinong only read the four words "Se Li Nei Ying".
After washing up at night, Lu Yinong lay on the bedside and read the book, "The Little Prince" borrowed from Su Shenzhen, she had read it many times, and there should be no chance to return it.
She sees the little prince come to the third planet and meet the drunkard. Drunkards are ashamed because they drink, and they are drunk because they are ashamed.
The cycle goes on and on, with no end.
Lu Qing knocked on the door and walked in.
The room was beautiful, with light green silk pillows, dresser and wardrobe in cream white, and a draped tassel curtain hanging from the doorway of the bathroom.
The steel mill dormitory where she grew up had only two bedrooms and one living room, one room for her grandfather and grandmother, and one room for her and aunt.
Lu Qing studied and lived on campus, so she lived alone most of the time. The room is poorly decorated, the uneven ground plastered with cement, the green and white walls like school classrooms, and the white putty on the roof often falls off when the south is damp and falls off, bare and leaking.
There was no desk in the room, so she would do her homework on the coffee table or dining table in the living room. Wait until grandma serves the food, and then hurriedly take the homework away, being careful not to get the oil on it.
She is happy most of the time, as long as Lu Yong and Yu Pei don't come.
Yu Pei is a very typical stepmother, and she doesn't abuse her much, but she is just a little neglect and occasional sudden cynicism.
When he was 11 years old, his mother died, and Lu Yong got married to Yu Pei in less than three months.
Fortunately, she grew up next to her grandparents, and she didn't hate Yu Pei for more than half a day.
She didn't expect that Yu Pei would come to Beicheng at this juncture.
What's more, when Lu Qing got married, Yu Peilai's family fanned the flames with her grandparents, openly and secretly belittled and ridiculed her for marrying an old man, she had seen it with her own eyes.
My aunt sat on the edge of the bed, and when she didn't look up, knowing that she had a mustard, she stretched out her hand to hang the strands of her hair that had fallen behind her ears.
"Don't block your eyes, it's not good for your eyesight. What kind of book do you read, show me? ”
She pulled the book out of Lu Yinong's hand and read, "Little Prince." ”
Lu Yinong did not answer.
Lu Qing sighed and returned the book to Lu Yinong's hand: "That's your father, and my identity is not just your aunt." They finally came to visit, don't be unhappy? ”
"Not unhappy." Lu Yinong muttered, closed the book, pressed it to his lap, and rubbed the edge of the page repeatedly in boredom.
Lu Qing touched her face, the little girl's face was full of collagen, and the pores were almost invisible.
She stretched her eyebrows and gently persuaded, "Let's leave the walled city, and the past will be over." Now you can read English books, study classical music, go to international schools, and they can't imagine the scenery you can see in your life. Vision determines open-mindedness, let's not worry about the trivialities in the past with them. Well? ”
The old god Lu Yinong was reading the yellow-haired little boy on the cover of the book on the ground: "The well frog can't talk to the sea, and he is confined to nothingness; Summer insects can't talk to the ice, and they can't talk to the time. ”
Lu Qing held back a smile and poked her on the door of her head: "The text you just learned? Well memorized, give you a clever one. ”
Yu Pei's belly was more than eight months old, and her legs and feet were swollen in the third trimester, so Lu Qing arranged the guest room on the first floor so that it would not be inconvenient for them to go up and down the stairs.
Zhang Rong was called home by Zhang Peiming to come to dinner, and as soon as he entered the living room, he was startled by the pregnant women walking around in front of him.
Zhang Peiming and Lu Yong sat on the sofa and watched the TV news, and turned around together when they heard the movement.
"It's the Banyan Society, right?" Lu Yong stood up with a smile on his face, "The young man is so handsome!" ”
Zhang Rong frowned, took two steps back, stayed away from the pregnant woman, and didn't answer his words.
Zhang Peiming got up and introduced him: "This is Yinong's parents, come to Beicheng to play." According to the generation, you should call your uncle and aunt. ”
Zhang Ronghui's eyes glanced to the ground, and his reaction was cold: "My uncle's name is Yu Yicheng, and he has passed away for many years. What kind of uncle is this? ”
He occasionally speaks upright and offends people, Zhang Peiming can basically come back by giving him a sloppy look, but when he talks like this to the point of being extremely unpleasant, he has no words at once, and he doesn't know how to answer.
"Ah...... Banyan will him. ”
Lu Qing came over from the kitchen and beckoned them to the dining room with a smile: "The dishes are all ready, everyone is ready to eat." ”
Zhang Peiming came back to his senses: "Yes, eat first, eat first." I'm waiting for you, let's talk slowly at the dinner table. ”
Lu Qing felt that the atmosphere at the dinner table was not quite right, Lu Yong, who usually liked to express himself the most, had no voice at the dinner table, and Yu Pei, who was beside him, buried his head in eating, not daring to say a word.
Zhang Peiming tried his best to enliven the atmosphere on the table, and only Zhang Rong would occasionally answer a few sentences.
She was confused, and watched Lu Yinong keep picking up white rice beside her, and put a piece of pork ribs in her bowl.
"Are you here as a guest? Why don't you eat vegetables? ”
The little niece also behaved strangely.
Lu Yinong's face flushed, his eyes drifted outward, and he whispered, "I, I'm losing weight." ”
Lu Qing felt that her brain was broken: "You are only 90 pounds at 1.65 meters, what kind of fat do you lose?" Don't want to grow taller? ”
Lu Yinong was speechless, hummed for a long time, picked up the ribs and stuffed them into his mouth.
Lu Qing let her go.
Zhang Peiming found a topic and continued to chat with Lu Yong: "I have done research on your steel mills before, and many of the ones that were restructured in the 90s are not good, and your factories have lasted for more than ten or twenty years. ”
Lu Yong said cautiously: "Yes." When my father was a father, he was still an iron rice bowl, and after more than ten years, he received a pension. Now the benefits are not very good. ”
Yu Pei next to him elbowed his stomach.
Zhang Peiming investigated, naturally knew the situation of the steel mill, and asked: "I went to hear that the factory is going to demolish and build a residential area?" ”
"Flip the house now to make money. To continue production, steel mills need to invest a lot of money to optimize equipment, and it is better to directly sell the factory to make more money. ”
Hearing this, Lu Qing asked, "Can our house be demolished?" Do you want to make up the money? ”
Lu Yong suddenly came to his senses: "It can be demolished, and there is a real estate certificate." On the household registration book, the old couple plus three people, each of whom is 60 square meters, can divide a house of 180 square meters. There are also more than 300,000 yuan in compensation for demolition and relocation. ”
Zhang Peiming suddenly turned his head to look at Zhang Ronghui, and slammed his fist on the table: "You give me honesty." ”
