Not long after Lin Zhengran left, Li Fei said in a daze:
"The girl who used to love to laugh has now become quiet and intellectual. Girls really change a lot when they grow up!"
Qin Shouguo lowered his eyes and said nothing. The person next to him said:
"Xiao Man has always been sensible, and now she seems even more considerate and thoughtful."
Thoughtful about everything?
Qin Shouguo would rather she was not sensible, because the price of being sensible was too high.
"Let's go! I've arranged to meet them at the factory. After I leave, you'll have some connections to stay here. You're thirty years old, and you can't delay any longer!"
Li Fei nodded without saying anything like thank you. The relationship between him and Qin Shouguo was closer than that between brothers, so there was no need to say this between them.
When Qin Shouguo turned around, he caught a glimpse of Duobao secretly watching them from outside the door.
Qin Shouguo waved at him, and Duobao rushed up happily, but was stopped by Li Fei and picked up halfway.
"Boy, uncle will take you to eat delicious food, do you want to go?"
Duobao stretched out his hand to Qin Shouguo, "I want to go with my uncle."
"You heartless brat." Li Fei slapped him on the butt and reported to the people inside.
Lin Zhengran heard this from inside and came out and said quickly, "Duobao is allergic to peanuts and beans. Don't let him touch these. Otherwise, if it gets serious, he'll need to be hospitalized."
Li Fei couldn't believe it and said, "Food is so scarce now, and your child is still picky about food!"
"It's not that he's picky about food." Lin Zhengran was helpless and didn't know how to explain it, so he just said, "It's just that his body can't tolerate it, so he can't eat it."
"Sister, you can't drink alcohol, otherwise your face will swell up." Duobao gestured to her own face and said to Qin Shouguo.
It was impossible for a child to drink alcohol. Qin Shouguo guessed that it must be the wine added when cooking. He asked: "Sister, you can't touch the evaporated wine?"
Lin Zhengran nodded.
Li Fei exclaimed, "I've never heard of this before. Your two children are indeed a bit spoiled."
Lin Zhengran did not deny this and told them to retrieve it as soon as possible.
Ye Zi is a person who can't sit still. It's still early, so she wants to go out for a walk.
Before they left Qiang City, her mother was not used to it, but now she has adjusted to the new situation and someone is taking her out. Lin Nanfeng is looking forward to this.
She pulled out a handful of tickets to show her support for them.
Maybe because the environment was unfamiliar, Qin Xiaomei didn't want to go out and didn't move.
She and Lin Nanfeng huddled in the room, feeling somewhat depressed and uneasy, her eyes darting around like a pitiful, unwanted stray cat.
To be honest, she had often experienced similar feelings in her previous life.
What happened to others, even she herself was shuttling back and forth between a madman and a normal person.
No one can save you in such a situation. You can only save yourself, digest it on your own, and let time heal the pain.
Lin Nanfeng didn't know how to help her, so he took out a storybook and told her the story.
Qin Xiaomei was attracted by her voice. After a while, she took off her shoes and went to bed, lying on the bed like her, one listening and the other reciting.
Lin Zhengran and Ye Zi saw this scene when they came back.
"Mom, buy a radio for my aunt to pass the time."
Lin Zhengran put the things she bought at her feet, and Qin Xiaomei also looked up at her.
"Buy it." Lin Zhengran turned to Ye Zi and asked, "Did we see it in the mall just now?"
Ye Zi groaned, "That thing is expensive. It costs more than 40 yuan each, not including the ticket."
"Forty yuan." Lin Zhengran muttered to himself, "It's quite expensive."
She just went out for a walk with Ye Zi. Ye Zi was a very outgoing person and greeted everyone she met, so she asked people about her salary and Li Fei's salary.
The kitchen helper earns 23.5 yuan a month, the security department earns 30 yuan, and a meat bun costs five cents nowadays, so this salary is not low, and there are tickets every month!
This amount of money is enough to support a family and several children.
"Ask my brother to buy it," Qin Xiaomei said as she sat up. "My brother has money, so he will definitely buy it for Xiaoman."
Lin Nanfeng thought to himself: This thing was obviously bought for you. Who will have the time to read it to you every day in the future?
Lin Zhengran stroked her hair and immediately agreed to her request, "When your brother comes back, tell him, he will definitely buy it."
Qin Xiaomei nodded with satisfaction and lay down again.
Lin Nanfeng was very curious when he saw that they bought so many things, so he put down the book in his hand and went out to take a look.
"Eat first."
Lin Nanfeng suddenly realized that it was getting dark. She found the light and turned it on. Ye Zi and Qin Xiaomei both exclaimed.
Qin Xiaomei kept looking at the lights, while Ye Zi said excitedly, "We have lights at home! How come they are so bright?" Then she asked, "Is this something you have to pay for?"
"You have to pay." Lin Nanfeng said, "It's not much, just a few cents."
A few cents was not a small amount for Ye Zi before, but now they have a salary and they don’t have to grope in the dark at night anymore, so these few cents are still worth it.
Lin Nanfeng looked outside through the window and asked, "Are there lights on the roadside?"
Ye Zi ran out, followed closely by Qin Xiaomei. Lin Zhengran said, "This is a street, so it's normal to have lights. There are several state-owned stores in front."
Lin Nanfeng took his mother's hand and walked out, saying as he walked, "Life will be much more convenient from now on. It's not like in the village, where there's no electricity and you have to go out to buy things."
Outside, Ye Zi and Qin Xiaomei were cheering. It seemed like they had never seen such a scene before, or maybe they were cheering for the wonderful life from now on.
Lin Nanfeng acted strangely. There was a wire at the door to turn off the light. When she turned off the light, the voices of Qin Xiaomei and Ye Zi stopped abruptly.
The lights in the yard were out, but there were still lights on the roadside. When Ye Zi saw the mother and daughter laughing, she knew she had been fooled.
Qin Xiaomei reacted and went to turn on the light. When the light came on, the smile returned to her face. After the excitement subsided, Ye Zi said:
"Sister-in-law, let's eat outside."
Lin Nanfeng also agreed with this matter, mainly because there were too many things in the house and it was difficult to find a place to stay.
They brought the table from home, and luckily it wasn't very big, so Lin Zhengran moved it out.
Four people had four dishes, three meat dishes and one vegetable dish, one braised pork, one pork elbow, scrambled eggs with tomatoes and stir-fried cabbage.
Maybe because he was hungry, Lin Nanfeng ate with relish. Ye Zi said with a grunt, "I told my sister-in-law not to buy so much, but she wouldn't listen. These things are so expensive!"
Lin Nanfeng stuffed a piece of meat into his mouth and said vaguely: "For our first meal after moving out, of course we have to eat something delicious."
Lin Zhengran picked up a piece of meat for Xiaomei and Ye Zi, and expressed his approval.
"That's exactly what I mean."
"You can save money in the future, but you can't save money on this meal today."
Qin Xiaomei didn't say much and just focused on eating the whole time. She poured the broth on the rice and didn't forget to pour some on Lin Nanfeng as well.
"The meat smells so good, Xiaoman, eat quickly."
It seemed as if he was afraid that she wouldn't have enough to eat, so he hurriedly ate his meal while urging her on.
Whenever Lin Nanfeng stopped to talk, she would be so anxious that she wanted to help her eat.
