Chapter 66 OK.
When Shi Qingqing returned home, she found Shi Shi eating a fried fish again.
When Zhao Fengnian saw Shi Qingqing coming back, he looked a little embarrassed.
"I'm full, but I just feel like taking a bite when I think of it."
Shi Qingqing laughed: "There are only two of us at home, so eat whatever you want. I remember there are two bottles of beer, would you like to have a drink?"
Zhao Fengnian's eyes sparkled at that moment.
"Honey, I'm telling you, you're really good. When I was a kid, I stole some dried radish and was beaten by my mother with a fork on the ground. But we were so poor back then, and it wasn't just me, it was the same for my other brothers and sisters.
At first, my brother was not beaten, but after my mother got together with my uncle and I was born, even my brother could not eat whatever he wanted at home, not even a single moldy bean..."
Shi Qingqing was not impatient. She felt that she was used to the way Zhao Fengnian would mutter to himself whenever he got upset.
The beer was poured into the glass, and a thick layer of white foam quickly accumulated on the top.
On this day, the beer is cool even without a refrigerator.
Only one piece of fish was left for Zhao Fengnian to satisfy his craving for a while, and the rest was quickly braised. It was cooked through in just ten minutes. The puff pastry was cooked by the sauce, and a small part of it spread out and absorbed the sauce. It probably had the taste of fish even though it didn't have the texture of fish.
I grabbed a handful of the drunkard peanuts I bought last time and threw them onto a flat plate.
Just had a drink, didn't do much.
The two of them clinked glasses at the small dining table. Zhao Fengnian ate his fish happily, occasionally putting a peanut in his mouth, feeling comfortable and free.
After eating and drinking, Zhao Fengnian finished his work and told Shi Qingqing that he would go out to buy materials and tools starting tomorrow and start tinkering with the walls and circuits at home.
"good."
The two of them settled down to rest. Zhao Fengnian seemed to be in a good mood after drinking some wine, and talked for a while. Shi Qingqing fell asleep while he was talking like this.
…
Zhao Fengnian was arrested.
Shi Qingqing was at a loss and had no one to turn to for help.
She even only got a reason without details and context, that Zhao Fengnian was involved in private lending and stole a large amount of money from it.
Shi Qingqing finally got the chance to meet Zhao Fengnian, but the usually talkative Zhao Fengnian was like a saw-mouthed gourd and just asked her not to wait for him.
Shi Qingqing didn't know how she left the police station.
In the days that followed, in addition to running around to get news, she also had to face contempt and abuse from all kinds of people, saying that she was the wife of a criminal, and who knew whether Zhao Fengnian's money was spent on her.
Her parents accepted her at this time, provided her with food and shelter, and bought her new clothes.
But when she was at her mother's house, she would always see several strange men taking turns appearing at the dinner table, and she would always be notified in advance to prepare a good meal.
Later, even though there were two women from her mother's family at the dinner table, her reputation became even worse, to the point where someone threw dirty things into her yard.
Some people even threw used paper and toilet paper from public toilets in front of her door and burned them.
Shi Qingqing left her parents' home and worked several jobs every day, but was paid less than others.
Even the best food in the work lunch would be taken away openly.
Later, she felt that she might be going crazy, but without a diploma, special skills, connections, or the courage to go out, she could only die in such a circle and atmosphere.
Before he went completely crazy, Zhao Fengnian came back.
The pain was so intense that she had no place to vent it. The two of them were entangled again, but she also lost her first child in this crazy endurance.
Zhao Fengnian could only say that he was wrong, he was wrong.
After that, I don’t know whether it was because they had given up or just followed the crowd, but their relationship continued.
Later children were born, but they inherited their parents' poor life. It was not easy for them to grow up, and she did not blame the children for not being so active in visiting friends.
Because they are children from poor families, their parents cannot provide them with resources and help, and the children are not geniuses, so they are destined to do their best to make a living.
Later, she became paralyzed before she was old enough to become a grandmother. Zhao Fengnian also seemed to be ill. Sometimes he would suddenly have an attack and beat himself. She would also mock Zhao Fengnian sarcastically, wanting everyone to get out so that she could die alone.
The dream seemed to repeat itself roughly, and Shi Qingqing heard the question again: Did she really regret spending her whole life with him?
I still regret it.
The two people have different personalities and different views on life. After a long time, it is hard to say which one is right and which one is wrong. Anyway, when they look back on it when they are old, there are still many regrets. Zhao Fengnian doesn't like to lose face, and he must be tired.
He loves to brag, is very concerned about his reputation, is foolishly filial, trusts others too easily, always thinks about others, and has asked her, his wife, to put herself in a difficult position countless times.
As for myself, I am strong-willed and cannot help comparing myself with others. I wonder why only others can live a good life and I cannot stand Zhao Fengnian's so-called loyalty.
Another reason is that they are too poor, but they still hold on to the extravagant hope that things will get better in a few years.
Faced with the dilemma of being poor, the two huddled together for warmth while hiding their inner pain from each other.
When Shi Qingqing opened her eyes again, she found that tears had been flowing down her face without her noticing, wetting the area around her.
Zhao Fengnian was not around.
Shi Qingqing stood up, wiped away her tears silently, changed the pillowcase for a clean one, and washed the previous one.
This dream may have some truth in it.
But there was no Haihuo Mall in the dream, and there was no process in which the two people broke up and then reunited and the situation improved.
"It's different." Shi Qingqing murmured.
After she washed up, Zhao Fengnian prepared breakfast and she just had to eat it.
The two of them had their own plans in the morning. Shi Qingqing gave a key to Zhao Fengnian, who simply strung them together and hung them around his neck.
Shi Qingqing jumped onto her fishing boat and thought about how many people had greeted her along the way. She thought her plan had made a good start.
The weather is good today. Shi Qingqing harvested three spots given by the Haihuo Mall. One of them was even composed of only a few reefs, but it was also counted as a spot. It is estimated that the nearest spots have been "cut down" by her, the wild oyster killer.
Shi Qingqing would scatter the bait when she was resting, and if she saw any movement while she was eating, she would cast a net.
If they can be sold, the points will be sold directly to the mall. If they cannot be sold, they will be left to soak in the seawater storage room.
But that's stagnant water and it won't last long.
Therefore, Shi Qingqing is not greedy.
Just bring back some gains each time, and there won't be any new topics to talk about.
There was someone at home, so Shi Qingqing didn't plan to stay up late today. She walked home carrying a bucket of fish and found that someone was cooking at home.
The overbearing rice aroma spread.
Shi Qingqing carried the heavy bucket to the door and put it directly on the ground.
There were some packaging bags, bricks and piles of sand scattered outside the yard.
One side of the wall has been completed. Shi Qingqing raised her eyebrows. The efficiency is pretty good.
I went out to buy the materials, and came back to build a wall by myself.
Shi Qingqing knocked on the door, and her man walked out of the yard with faint yellow light. He first held her hand to warm it, and muttered something like you can't wear gloves when catching fish.
Then he picked up the bucket with one hand and went in.
Zhao Fengnian said that he had already cut and prepared everything and would start cooking soon, so we could eat in half an hour.
"Okay." Shi Qingqing said.
