Chapter 162 Brother, you are awesome!
A lot of diapers have been made. Lin Xia is operating the sewing machine very fast. She is making a schoolbag for the little one.
Thinking that she is still young and even when she goes to elementary school, she won’t be able to hold many books, so I made it into a cross-body bag.
Most of the school bags of this era are of this style, and they usually have the words "Serve the People" printed on them. Lin Xia didn't do anything else. She used drawing powder to draw a fish on the little guy's school bag, which was round and fat, and then drew a circle around it with thread.
Because the fabric used was strong, Lin Xia used an awl to poke a small shell and sewed it on the cover as a button. It was both decorative and practical.
Seeing that the little girl was having fun playing in the yard, Lin Xia did not disturb her and would just wait two days before giving it to her.
There was a knock on the door. Since Lu Yuxiu raised the gate to the yard, the little guy couldn't see who was coming. He asked curiously, "Who are you looking for?"
"Hello, I'm looking for Comrade Lin." A strange voice came, and An An was a little confused. She had never heard this voice before.
Remembering what his mother said not to open the door to strangers, the little guy ran into the house and shouted, "Mom, there's someone knocking at the door. It's an aunt I don't know."
Lin Xia patted her head and said, "Good job, baby. You can't open the door to strangers."
Ever since it was confirmed that the little one was going to school, Lin Xia began to consciously teach her some things. Not following strangers and not opening the door to strangers are the simplest ones.
An An, who was very happy to be praised, followed Lin Xia to the yard. Lin Xia walked to the gate of the yard and asked outside. Clothes could be seen through the crack of the door, indicating that someone was still there: "Who are you?"
"I'm Su Qiuhua. Comrade Lin, can you let me in to talk?" There was a hint of apology in her voice.
Su Qiuhua, Mrs. Zhou's daughter-in-law.
Lin Xia didn't know why she came here and was a little worried that something might happen, when a voice happened to come.
"Comrade, who are you looking for?" It was Wang Guilan who had just returned from shopping for groceries.
When Lin Xia saw her coming back, she opened the door. Su Qiuhua looked haggard. Her facial features were quite good, but her complexion was not good, and she looked a little dull. When she saw Lin Xia opening the door, her eyes lit up.
"Come in and talk." Lin Xia invited her in.
Su Qiuhua nodded to thank her, and when she entered the yard, she saw An An playing on the slide. The little girl was fair and cute. She fell silent when she was asked a question. It seemed that she had gone to look for someone.
When Wang Guilan saw Lin Xia inviting the female comrade into the house, she thought they knew each other and didn't think much about it, so she followed her in. It was still early and there was no rush to make lunch, so Wang Guilan put on her hat and went to the yard to pull weeds.
Su Qiuhua looked at Wang Guilan. He had no idea what her relationship with Lin Xia was. Seeing that she didn't say much and just went to work, he guessed in his mind, but didn't ask much. He thought that she came here today for other things.
"I don't know how Comrade Lin is doing. These things are for you to replenish your body. I'm sorry about what happened to my mother-in-law." Su Qiuhua put the basket in her hand on the table.
It was covered with a cloth, and Lin Xia didn't open it to look. She looked at Su Qiuhua and said, "Do you want to exchange my house?"
Su Qiuhua didn't expect her to ask this. She smiled bitterly and shook her head: "It may be fate that I don't have children, or it may be my body... How can it be related to a house?"
"But they said that I was able to get pregnant because of this house." Lin Xia said with a smile, touching her belly.
Su Qiuhua thought of the books she had read and really couldn't lie to herself, "Comrade Lin has also been to school, right? So have I."
Seeing that she understood what he said, Lin Xia gave up the temptation and said seriously, "That matter has nothing to do with you. You are you and she is her. I can't let you bear the responsibility that she should bear."
"But I am her daughter-in-law after all...I..." Su Qiuhua felt warm in her heart when she heard Lin Xia say this, but it was impossible to cut off this relationship. Could they get a divorce?
"But if you didn't do it, then it has nothing to do with you. To put it bluntly, even if there is responsibility to be attributed, it should be her son's." If this matter has something to do with Su Qiuhua, she would not cut her off.
Even if Old Mrs. Zhou couldn't be found, her son could still be found. Lin Xia would not hold an innocent person accountable.
"Take the things back. This has nothing to do with you." Lin Xia smiled and refused the gifts she gave her.
Seeing that she really didn't want to accept it, Su Qiuhua felt an indescribable feeling in her heart. Looking at her belly, a hint of envy flashed in her eyes.
Lin Xia stood up to see her out and took the basket for her.
Su Qiuhua seemed to remember something, turned to look at Lin Xia and said embarrassedly, "You...you..."
"Is there anything wrong?" Lin Xia asked gently when she saw her hesitation.
"Is it true that the inability to conceive may be due to problems with the man?" Su Qiuhua's voice was a little low, with a hint of seeking confirmation in her tone.
"It's true." Lin Xia saw her eyes light up when she heard the answer, as if she saw hope, and thought to herself.
When Su Qiuhua heard the definite answer, he seemed to be motivated and went out.
Wang Guilan was weeding and looked at her curiously when she saw her leaving.
"Come in and have a rest. The sun is too strong." Lin Xia saw her squatting in the sun and called her to come in. She felt so hot after standing for a while that she was sweating all over.
"I'll be there right away." Wang Guilan didn't think it was a big deal. If she didn't come here to work, she would have to go to work under such a hot sun.
Lin Xia was afraid that the person would get a heat stroke, which would be troublesome, so she said, "Come on, it's time to cook."
When she heard that it was time to cook, Wang Guilan did not dare to delay. She prepared to finish cooking before doing anything else. She got up and went into the house where it was much cooler.
Lin Xia took out a special cup and poured boiled water for her. People would come to their house from time to time, so she specially bought a few cups for the guests.
Seeing that she was about to get busy, Lin Xia asked her to sit in front of the fan and drink some water first. Only then did Lin Xia set a rule: "Don't work under the scorching sun in the future. If you do, you will get a heat stroke and I will have to replace you in the end."
When Wang Guilan heard about the replacement, she panicked and said, "No, no, I'll just come earlier next time."
"Just come normally. There's not much to do at home. We can finish it in a few days." Lin Xia was like this before. She could never finish housework all at once.
The same goes for the grass in the field. Apart from the fact that it will grow again, there is no rush.
Wang Guilan didn't expect that someone would stop her from working, but she knew in her heart that although Lin Xia's words sounded impolite, she was actually taking advantage of him. She felt happy that she had met a good family.
Wang Guilan rested for a while and then went to cook.
In the army canteen, a group of rough men lined up to get their meals.
Standing next to Lu Yuxiu were familiar comrades. Someone bumped into him and winked at him, saying, "Brother, you are awesome!"
The brothers who heard this also laughed and looked at Lu Yuxiu with some envy in their eyes.
