Chapter 351: Keep an eye on your daughter
Chapter 351: Keep an eye on your daughter
This is what Wang thought. She thought that her niece would only stay here for two days and then go back.
After all, they are not too far away. If we want to meet each other in the future, we can just come again.
Wang still asked: "Zhaodi, it's the busy farming season now, and there is so much work to do in the brigade. Won't your mother scold you?"
If her children did not work at home or outdoors and had no other income, they would also have nothing to eat.
She was worried that if Zhaodi stayed here for too long, her elder sister would beat him again.
"I'll stay here for a few days. My mother knows about it. If you're busy here, I can go back tomorrow morning." Chen Zhaodi thought, there are so many things in her aunt's place, it's impossible for her to go back empty-handed.
"Well, go back and help your mother, earn more work points, and get more food at the end of the year." Wang knew that if it was a year of good harvest, they could eat better during the New Year. If there was a disaster or something, it would be a good thing if they didn't starve to death.
Even though Wang's family's living conditions have improved now, she knows the principle of preparing for danger in times of peace, and she has not stopped going to work to earn money.
"Well, if you go back early tomorrow morning, you will still be in time for work. It's a bit late now, and it's not safe for you to go home," said Wang, patting Zhaodi's shoulder.
My eldest sister’s family is poor.
Li Guilan now knows that this girl is the child of Lao Wang’s eldest sister.
They live not far from each other, but they haven't been in touch for many years. Now that Lao Wang can eat white flour every day, this poor relative has finally come.
Li Guilan sat on a stool, eating melon seeds and listening to them chatting.
Now she knew that this person named Zhaodi would leave early tomorrow morning, and she finally felt relieved.
This is the home of my daughter and son-in-law. I am really worried that when Mrs. Wang sees the old relative, she will mindlessly give all the things in the house to this relative.
She finished cracking the melon seeds in her hand, patted the residue on her hands, stood up with her hands on her knees: "You two can chat, it's getting late now, I'll go back too."
Now her eldest daughter-in-law has given her a big fat grandson, and she has to go home to help take care of the child.
But she didn't say it.
I was afraid that telling Lao Wang that I was going to see the child would upset him.
After all, her daughter is not pregnant now, so she can't say anything.
"Go back and take care of the child. The child is still young. If you need help, just call me," Wang said to Li with a smile.
She said this, but she felt bitter in her heart.
Li Guilan returned home.
The whole family gathered around.
"Mom, what is that girl from the Xiao family here for?" the third child said anxiously.
The second brother also stepped forward and said, "Yes, what is it for?"
Whenever any woman came to the house, they were worried about their sister's position in the Xiao family.
Li Guilan sat down, tapped the table, and looked at the kettle next to her.
The third child was smart and quickly poured his mother a glass of boiled water: "Mom, drink some water."
She gulped down a glass of water and felt less hot.
Then he slowly opened his mouth: "She is a relative of your Aunt Wang's family, her eldest sister's little daughter Zhaodi."
"What? They have relatives?" said Mr. Gu.
Li Guilan looked outside the yard and said, "Who said it wasn't? This elder sister lives only a few villages away from us, very close. We haven't seen her come to visit as a relative for more than 20 years. Now that life is better, she sends people over to ask for money."
The postman delivers letters to them every month or two.
It’s an email from Jingbei.
The Xiao family's life is much better now.
Basically, what they eat every day is much better than what the villagers eat.
Even in the city, there is no such way of eating.
Gu Yao also sent a lot of things to the Gu family, but the Gu family was reluctant to eat any of their white flour, and so they took a lot of it to the black market and exchanged it for corn flour or black flour.
There are many people in their family, and Gu Yao sent a lot of money.
The Gu family felt that as long as they exchanged it for food, they would not be worried.
If they store food at home, they don't have to worry about going hungry.
They all came from the war years and naturally knew how precious food was. As long as they could have enough to eat, that was enough.
Many families can't even get enough to eat.
Their life is good now.
We can eat white flour several times a year.
When they have free time, they can go up the mountain to hunt.
It can also make living conditions at home better.
"This is the Xiao family's affair. You should get involved less in the future and don't make things difficult for Old Wang." Father Gu also looked into the yard.
"Hey, who said it wasn't? The things sent here are all for Lao Wang to eat. If Lao Wang took them to her eldest sister's house, it seems that he will come to ask for money often in the future. Fortunately, Lao Wang suffered alone. If my daughter was at home, she would definitely not let them take the things away." Li knew that her daughter was very protective of her food.
Those who take advantage of others will not get anything good.
However, her daughter is really capable. It has only been a short time since she went to Jingbei, but she is already working in the hospital.
"Well, now my daughter is working in Beijing North, and my son-in-law is also in the army in Beijing North. It's good for them to stay in Beijing North forever." Father Gu puffed on the pipe in his hand.
"Of course, my daughter is the phoenix soaring in the sky. Naturally, she must gain a foothold in northern Beijing. This Harmony Hospital is a nationally famous hospital. Many people want to get in but don't have the chance. Our daughter was able to get in because she has her own ability." Li Guilan was so happy that she grabbed a handful of melon seeds and started cracking them.
The third brother laughed and said, "That's right, my sister is really capable."
The second brother also smiled and said, "Just tell me, among the girls in this area, who is as capable and talented as my sister? She is worthy of being my sister, haha..."
Mrs. Li directly gave the second brother a violent blow: "Laugh, laugh, laugh, you still know how to laugh. Look how old you are now. The matchmaker introduced several people to you two brothers, but you didn't like any of them. You are so lucky. If the ones introduced by the matchmaker are not suitable, you should find someone by yourselves. You are really worried about me."
Li Guilan got a headache looking at these two stupid sons.
"Mom, why are you in such a hurry? We two brothers are so good-looking, how can we stay together?"
"You two naughty kids are really shameless. You are all digging for food in the dirt, and you still want to find a golden phoenix? Stop talking nonsense to me and find a wife and start a family quickly." Li Guilan hit the second and third children on the head violently.
The second and third sons covered their heads and ran out.
The child in the inner room started crying loudly.
Only then did Li get up and go to the inner room to help.
The remaining eldest brother and Mr. Gu looked at each other.
-
The next morning, Chen Zhaodi got up before dawn and said she wanted to go back.
Wang took out twenty kilograms of white flour from the house and gave it to Chen Zhaodi: "Take this, go home and make dumplings for your mother. The busy farming season is over here, so I'll go see your mother."
