Chapter 180: Dumplings on the bus, noodles on the bus
When Wei Jingfen came back and saw the wound on her son's face, she didn't believe it at first when she heard that it was Lin Chengfeng who scratched him.
Later, he slapped Lin Chengfeng twice, blaming Qin Shulan for not taking good care of the child.
Qin Shulan said she was cooking, and when Wei Jingfen was eating, she sarcastically implied that Lin Siyu was eating white rice at home and doing nothing.
She also deliberately took away the meat that Lin Siyu was about to take. Lin Siyu wanted to throw her chopsticks and quarrel, but was stopped by Qin Shulan.
The next day, Qin Shulan went directly to the family quarters of the municipal hospital to find Lu Tianyou.
There was no one at the Lu family except Lu Tianyou.
As soon as Lin Siyu entered the house, she complained to him, "I really can't stay in that house for a day. My mother used to take care of the children with me and made so much money, but she wouldn't lend me a hundred yuan when I asked her."
Lu Tianyou poured a glass of water in front of her and said to her, "Your mother is too heartless. She won't even lend you a hundred yuan."
Lin Siyu took a sip of water and looked up at Lu Tianyou. "I only have a few dollars on me, not even enough for the bus fare back to school. Tianyou, what should I do?"
Lu Tianyou frowned. He had reminded her not to spend money lavishly a long time ago. She was unhappy because he didn't want her to buy the red leather sandals on her feet.
"When we go back to school, I can ask my parents for a little more money. I'll pay for your bus fare. But I don't have any more money."
"Although my family is well off, my parents have always been very strict with me and don't give me much money."
Because the school provided subsidies, in the first half of the year, his parents gave him an extra 20 yuan for pocket money in addition to the round-trip fare.
In the first half of the year at school, Lin Siyu had relatively good financial resources, and she basically paid for everything from going out to playing to eating out.
But when she goes to school in the second half of the semester, if she continues to spend like before, she has no money and he definitely cannot afford to support her.
Lin Siyu held Lu Tianyou's hand and said, "I don't want to spend your money either. It's my mom who's been too much. I heard from Li Hongmei in our dormitory that you can get royalties by submitting articles to newspapers. When I return to school, I will also submit articles to newspapers to make money."
She has read a lot of literary works. When she was in school, her teachers always praised her for her good writing style and composition skills.
Lu Tianyou's eyes lit up. This was a good way to make money.
"Siyu, your writing is so good, you can definitely submit your articles to a newspaper, and maybe even become famous."
"Yeah." Lin Siyu nodded vigorously, and the scene of her manuscript being published and becoming famous had already appeared in her mind.
"Si Yu, there's no one at home, we..." Lu Tianyou scratched Lin Siyu's palm with his fingers.
The latter glared at him in reproach, looked at the bed in the corner of the living room, and frowned.
"I don't want to be in the living room..."
"Let's go to my sister's room." Lu Tianyou pulled Lin Siyu up, and the latter smiled and followed him into the room reluctantly.
…
Yu Hui got up before dawn to make dumplings.
Zhao Changying got up and saw Yu Hui busy in the kitchen so early, so she washed up and went in to help.
"Why are you making dumplings?"
Yu Hui smiled and said, "Don't people in the north say, 'Dumplings on the bus, noodles on the bus,'" he said. "Let's learn from them and have dumplings before we get on the bus and go home."
Zhao Changying said as she made dumplings, "We're not from the north, so just some porridge and pickles will be fine for breakfast."
"That doesn't mean you can't bear hunger."
"Isn't there some old bread you bought?"
The dumplings were almost ready, and Gu Qiuyan and the others got up.
Yu Hui asked Zhao Changying to check whether everything had been packed.
Gu Qiuyan didn't go back, so she didn't have to clean up much. She helped her two cousins clean up and then went into the kitchen to help.
The hot dumplings were cooked and Gu Qiuye and the others had finished cleaning up.
Four large plates of dumplings were served on the table. The dumplings were white and plump, and each one had a big pot belly.
Beibei's dumpling filling didn't have much salt in it, so it was cooked last. Yu Hui walked into the main room carrying Beibei's dumplings, and no one had started eating yet.
"Come on, try the dumplings I made," Yu Hui said as she sat down. She lowered her head, mashed Beibei's dumplings with a spoon, blew on them, and placed them in front of her.
"If it gets hot, just blow it."
"Yeah." Beibei nodded obediently, picked up the spoon and ate it himself, scooped up the dumplings, blew on them, and then put them into his mouth.
Awww, the dumplings are delicious.
"Mom, the dumplings you make are so delicious." Gu Qiuye gave Yu Hui a thumbs up with dumplings in his mouth.
Zhao Changying dipped the dumplings in vinegar and said, "Finally you changed your tune."
Yu Hui smiled and said, "If it tastes good, eat more. Come to my house for dumplings next summer vacation."
"Okay." She will definitely come again.
"Study hard and try to get into college so that our family can also have a college graduate." Yu Hui said as she put two dumplings in Gu Qiuye's bowl.
Gu Qiuyan patted her chest and said, "I will study hard and not bring shame to you, my mother."
She will never forget that it was because of her mother that she was able to continue her studies.
The opportunity to study is hard-earned, and she will definitely not let her mother down.
Yu Hui picked up two more dumplings for Gu Bin and Gu Yangyang, and said, "You two should be good and study hard. In the future, you can go to high school and get into college like your sister."
Gu Bin nodded vigorously, and Gu Yangyang, who had not yet started studying, also nodded.
After breakfast, it was time to say goodbye.
Yu Hui asked Gu Dong to stay at home to look after his younger siblings, and she and Gu Qiuyan sent Qiu Ye and the others to the train station.
Everyone was talking and laughing before leaving the house, but as soon as they walked out of the yard, their eyes were filled with tears.
"Woo woo, Brother Binbin, Brother Yangyang, Xixi will never forget you."
"You must come and play again in the future." Gu Xixi hugged Gu Bin and Gu Yang and cried reluctantly.
Although Gu Dong and Gu Nan did not cry like him, their eyes were red and full of reluctance.
After spending so many days together, the brothers have developed a deep bond.
Gu Bin hugged Gu Xixi and said with tears in his eyes, "I won't forget you either. When the New Year comes, you can come back to your hometown to play. I'll take you to set off fireworks and blow up the manure pit."
Gu Xixi: Can a cesspool be blown up?
Gu Qiuye hit his eldest brother directly on the back of the head, "You should take them to have some fun. Have you forgotten that Wang Tiedan threw firecrackers into the pit and blew up his toilet?"
He happened to be entertaining guests at home, and the flying shit splashed all over the guests.
That scene was simply amazing.
Gu Bin touched his head and said "ouch".
"Dongdong, Nannan, Xixi and Beibei are on winter vacation now. Come home with your parents to celebrate the New Year. Grandma will fry fried fruits and crispy meat for you." Zhao Changying said to her four grandchildren reluctantly.
The three brothers of the Gu family had never thought about going back to their hometown for the New Year, because their grandmother had always said that their hometown was dirty, smelly, and dilapidated, and going back there would not be fun but suffering.
But during this period, after listening to Sister Qiuyan and Brother Binbin talk about the interesting things in their hometown, and after getting along with them, they also developed feelings and bonds, and they are looking forward to returning to their hometown for the New Year.
