Chapter 98 Chapter 98 Zhou Lin and Wu Yun
Because Qiao Anchuan had returned, Liu Hongying explained a bunch of things and left, under the pretext of not disturbing him from developing a relationship with his daughter and son. In reality...
Whoever has the daughter or son should serve him or her!
Before her son came back, she did it for him. Now that her son is back, she does it herself.
So in the morning, Zhuo Jia went out for a walk while the two children were asleep, and saw Qiao Anchuan squatting by the well washing diapers.
Such a big man, sitting huddled on a small stool, looks quite pitiful!
"The child is asleep. Are you hungry? I'll make you something you want to eat." Qiao Anchuan heard the noise, turned around and saw Zhuo Jia. She immediately stood up and asked.
When his mother left, she said that because Zhuo Jia had to feed two children, now one person was eating for three people, and they would get hungry quickly, so they had to have snacks in between.
Zhuo Jia quickly shook her head: "I'm not hungry, I won't eat, I can eat it with lunch."
As Baobao's appetite grows bigger and bigger, no matter how much she eats, she can't feed these two children, so let's add milk powder to Meat Pie!
Qiao Anchuan, who had already half stood up and wiped his hands: "..."
He asked doubtfully, "Are you really not hungry?"
He has already decided what to make: steamed egg custard for Jia Jia!
Zhuo Jia shook her head. She found a small stool and sat next to Qiao Anchuan. She propped up her chin and said, "While the child is asleep, let's chat."
Ahem, to be honest, after being apart for such a long time, she still misses Comrade Qiao Anchuan a lot!
Qiao Anchuan sat back down and nodded with a smile, "Okay."
Although he didn't know what to say, he could talk about what he knew and could say, and also about Zhuo Jia's caring good friend Sun Jing!
Zhuo Jia, who had already learned a lot from Sun Jingxin, said: "..."
It's rare that Comrade Qiao Anchuan has so much to say, so she'd better not interrupt him!
After Qiao Anchuan finished speaking, Zhuo Jia very discreetly handed him a glass of water: "Drink water!"
Someone who has never spoken so much before must be very thirsty if he suddenly speaks so much!
Sure enough, Qiao Anchuan finished the glass of water, drank two more glasses in a row, and then put the glass down with satisfaction.
The reunited couple didn't talk for long because Roubing and Baobao, who were sleeping in the bed, woke up. One of them started crying, and then the other started crying too. So the couple didn't say anything and just hugged one of them to comfort them.
According to the previous habit, Zhuo Jia picked up Bao Bao and fed him first, then asked Qiao Anchuan to hold Rou Bing and coax him first, and then fed Rou Bing after feeding Bao Bao.
In fact, Roubing is a very easy child to take care of. He usually doesn't cry or make a fuss. But there is one bad thing about him, which is that he can't be hungry. Once he is hungry, he will cry immediately. No one can comfort him unless he is given food.
While feeding him, Zhuo Jia said to Qiao Anchuan, "Hold Roubing and coax him first. If he still cries, go outside and make some milk powder. Don't make too much. Put more milk powder and less water. The bottle should be in the bag in the main room. Look for it."
After saying that, she no longer cared about Qiao Anchuan and Roubing. She asked her to feed Bao Bao first, otherwise she would worry that Bao Bao would be too hungry to cry!
Seeing her lift up her clothes and feed him, Qiao Anchuan's ears immediately turned red. He tried to act serious and said, "Well, I can't coax Roubing. I'll go out and make some milk powder for Roubing. You can feed him first. There's no rush."
After saying that, he went out with the meat pie.
Zhuo Jia, who hadn't realized what was going on, said: "..."
The two new parents, no, it was a new father, hurriedly made a bottle of milk powder for their son, and finally coaxed him to sleep. After Zhuo Jia put Bao Bao down, Qiao Anchuan immediately handed over the meat pie: "You continue to feed the meat pie. The meat pie doesn't seem to be full. I'll go out to cook. What do you want to eat?"
His mother had told him to avoid certain foods before she left, so it was still possible to make lunch!
Zhuo Jia said indifferently, "Anything is fine."
Everything she eats has tasted bland this month, so now she doesn't even look forward to eating.
Qiao Anchuan: "..."
Okay, he went out to see if there was anything else to eat at home!
While waiting for dinner, Zhuo Jia fell silent as she looked at the stewed winter melon with vermicelli on the table. Well, there was meat in it. She glanced at Qiao Anchuan, picked up the food with chopsticks and took a bite. Then she said nothing and just lowered her head to eat.
For the past month, she had been eating food that was as if it had no salt in it. Now she finally tasted the saltiness. It was really...
So exciting!
Seeing Zhuo Jia eating with chopsticks one after another, Qiao Anchuan was stunned. He carefully picked up a chopstick and tasted it. Hmm, it still tasted the same. His cooking skills have improved, but it doesn’t seem to be so delicious that people can’t put their chopsticks down, right?
Seeing how delicious Zhuo Jia was eating, Qiao Anchuan couldn't help but eat a little more...
Qiao Anchuan, who was full and had nothing to do, washed all the diapers that the children had just changed and Zhuo Jia's clothes. There was no other way, as Zhuo Jia and the two children were already asleep.
…
The next day, Zhuo Jia was woken up by Bao Bao. She started feeding the children without opening her eyes, and then fed Bao Bao the meat pie. After coaxing the two children to sleep again, she looked up at the sky outside. It was great, it was almost ten o'clock. She had never slept so long in the hospital. It seems that there is still a difference between being at home and being in the hospital.
And she didn't wake up last night. She only seemed to hear the child crying a few times, but Qiao Anchuan quickly coaxed the child into silence, so she didn't wake up.
She got dressed and went out, then saw Qiao Anchuan drying the quilt outside like a hardworking little bee. Zhuo Jia: "..."
There’s no need to be so diligent!
"Why are you drying the quilt?" Zhuo Jia tried to hold back but couldn't help asking.
We are not without quilts now, so why take out all the quilts from the cupboard?
Qiao Anchuan was still washing diapers when he heard this. He turned around and said, "The weather is good today, so I'm going to dry the quilt in the sun in advance."
He didn't tell me how he searched through boxes and drawers at home looking for work this morning...
The house was so clean that he wanted to sweep the yard or wipe the table, but he found that he was not needed!
So it’s best to take out the quilts that have not been dried in the cupboard and dry them in the sun!
Zhuo Jia's mouth twitched. What else could she say? She changed the subject directly: "Is there any rice in the pot? I'm hungry."
Let her eat something to fill her stomach first, and then we can talk about other things.
Qiao Anchuan nodded: "Yes, there's millet porridge hot in the pot. I'll go fry an egg for you."
After saying that, he wrung the diaper in his hand hard, hung it on the rope to hang, and quickly went to the kitchen.
Zhuo Jia followed leisurely behind, looking through the shelves full of clothes as if she was inspecting something, and finally followed into the kitchen with a smile on her face.
Hardworking, Comrade Qiao Anchuan is really too hardworking, she can't compare with him, and she can't compare with him!
Zhuo Jia, who considered herself a lazy person, followed Qiao Anchuan to the kitchen and slowly drank the millet porridge handed to her. Soon, a bowl of scrambled eggs appeared in front of her.
The lazy Zhuo Jia coughed and said, "I can't finish this much. How about you eat some more?"
Just now she saw that there were still steamed buns warming in the pot, but she didn't eat steamed buns in the morning. Besides, lunch would be soon, so why eat so much now?
Qiao Anchuan said without thinking: "Okay, then I'll eat with you for a while."
I just finished digesting what I ate in the morning and I’m hungry!
So the two of them had a late lunch together, and then Qiao Anchuan said something and left. Zhuo Jia didn't take it to heart because she was sitting in a rocking chair basking in the sun while her child was sleeping.
This is a rare moment of quietness, you must enjoy it!
"Jia Jia, Jia Jia, I'm here to see my godson and goddaughter." Zhang Yunhuan rushed in from outside the door and shouted happily.
Zhuo Jia, who was still basking in the sun, slowly opened her eyes and sat up. Zhang Yunhuan said, "Three, two, one!"
The moment she uttered the last number, a full-bodied cry was heard from the room.
Zhang Yunhuan, who was still wondering what Zhuo Jia was counting, said: "..."
No, why are her godson and daughter still sleeping? It’s almost eleven o’clock now. Shouldn’t it be time for dinner?
Seeing her standing there motionless, Zhuo Jia smiled and pointed towards the house: "Go, your daughter is calling you."
When she was in the hospital, Zhang Yunhuan went to see her often, so small things like coaxing Bao Bao were easy for him!
Zhang Yunhuan's mouth twitched. Although she came to see her goddaughter and godson, she didn't want her goddaughter to call her. She was afraid that her goddaughter would hurt her throat if she cried for too long. She glared at Zhuo Jia and walked into the house resignedly. It was really rare to find a godmother with such a miserable life like her!
Seeing Zhang Yunhuan go in to coax the child, Zhuo Jia continued to lie down and bask in the sun leisurely. Since someone was looking after the child, there was no need for her to join in the fun.
…
After coaxing him for a long time, Zhang Yunhuan finally came out, sweating profusely. She looked at Zhuo Jia and said, "Why do I feel like Bao Bao is crying longer now?"
In the past, he cried softly and could fall asleep after being held and coaxed by someone familiar. But now he cries for almost half an hour!
Even if she is not tired, she will be tired!
Zhuo Jia smiled and said, "That's for sure. Grandma Meng said that as Bao Bao gets better, he'll be able to cry longer."
Although she said this with a smile, she felt bitter in her heart. When she thought about Baobao crying all the time in the future, she felt a headache!
Zhang Yunhuan also laughed: "According to what you said, it would be a good thing if Bao Bao could cry."
It’s just not very friendly to those who come to visit the children often!
Zhuo Jia nodded vigorously: "Yes, it's a good thing, so if you have nothing to do, come and help me look after the child more."
She wished someone else could help her look after the child. When she was in the hospital, she had her mother-in-law and sister-in-law, and now she had Qiao Anchuan...
Just thinking about it makes me feel quite happy!
Zhang Yunhuan was amused by Zhuo Jia's words. Hey, before she had the baby, she urged her to go back to the city every day. Now that she had the baby, and two at once, she no longer urged her to go back to the city. Instead, she urged her to help look after the baby every day. It was really Sima Zhao's intention that was known to everyone!
"Don't worry, as long as I don't go back to the city, I will never forget to visit my godson and goddaughter." She said unhappily.
Humph, just looking after the child? She is willing to look after him!
Upon hearing this, Zhuo Jia sat up excitedly and asked, "Is your return to the city settled?"
Before, for her, Zhang Yunhuan postponed returning to the city until now. Now that her child is born and the confinement period is over, it is indeed time for Zhang Yunhuan to return to the city!
Seeing her like this, Zhang Yunhuan quickly waved his hands: "No, no, what are you thinking? How can it be so fast!"
After Zhuo Jia gave birth, she witnessed with her own eyes how Zhuo Jia's mother-in-law and sister-in-law took care of Zhuo Jia and the child. She felt relieved and wrote a letter asking her parents to find a way to let her return to the city as soon as possible. But there has been no movement so far!
But there are really few jobs in the city, and everyone is assigned a position. Even if her parents help her find a solution, she can't be impatient!
Zhuo Jia frowned and lowered her voice to whisper, "How about I ask Qiao Anchuan to see if he has any friends over there?"
The Chinese New Year is only two or three months away. It’s impossible for Zhang Yunhuan to spend the New Year here this year, right?
And it will be 76 years after the new year. If I don’t go back to the city...
Then you can find another way to go back!
Zhang Yunhuan moved her hands even faster this time. She glared at Zhuo Jia and said, "Stop talking nonsense here. I don't need Qiao Anchuan's help."
It’s not that she was embarrassed, but she was worried that after Zhuo Jia spoke, she would be inferior to Qiao Anchuan. Humph, she would never do such a stupid thing!
Zhuo Jia: "..."
She nodded perfunctorily, but in her heart she still had to ask. After all, she would only know whether there was any fruit after trying it herself.
Fearing that Zhuo Jia would say something to make her angry again, Zhang Yunhuan said she was hungry, got up and ran away. She was afraid that Zhuo Jia would keep her for dinner!
Zhuo Jia, who really wanted to keep Zhang Yunhuan for dinner, said: "..."
Zhang Yunhuan wasn't like this before. In the past, as long as she invited him to have dinner, Zhang Yunhuan would agree. But now...
It must be because Qiao Anchuan is back, so Zhang Yunhuan feels embarrassed!
So when Qiao Anchuan came back with the fish, he met Zhuo Jia's scrutinizing gaze.
Qiao Anchuan paused, looked down at himself carefully, then raised his head and asked cautiously, "What's wrong?"
He went out for a while, what went wrong?
Zhuo Jia shook her head, indicating that she was fine, and asked curiously, "Where did this fish come from?"
He was out for such a short time and didn't bring any tools, so it definitely couldn't have been fished out of the river!
Qiao Anchuan was processing fish by the well and said, "Someone caught this by the creek, so I exchanged it with money to make up for it for you."
His mother said that although Jia Jia has already left the confinement period, she still needs to eat more delicious food, such as fish, meat, and, yes, pig's trotters.
Although he did not buy pig's trotters when he went to the commune this morning, he had already told Lao Peng to help keep an eye out in the county. If there were pig's trotters in the county, he would ride his bicycle to get them.
After hearing that it was exchanged for money, Zhuo Jia said nothing more. This was normal, but because the fish in the stream were too difficult to catch, many people caught the fish for their own consumption, but very few sold them because they were afraid of being caught by the people in the team!
Thinking of something, Zhuo Jia looked at Qiao Anchuan and said, "The pocket money at home is in the drawer under the desk. If you run out of money, go and get it."
Although Qiao Anchuan saves money for himself every month, don't forget that he and other comrades also have to send money to the orphans of martyrs every month, so Qiao Anchuan doesn't have much money on him.
Qiao Anchuan nodded: "I know, don't worry, I will go get it if you don't have money."
Without saying a few words, he finished processing the fish in his hand!
He glanced at the time and said, "I'm going to the kitchen to cook. You take a rest."
Because there were children sleeping in the room, the two spoke in low voices. If Qiao Anchuan entered the kitchen, they would have to shout whatever they wanted to say next.
But Zhuo Jia didn't want to wake the child, so she didn't rest and got up and followed Qiao Anchuan into the kitchen.
"What's wrong?" Qiao Anchuan put the pot on the stove and asked Zhuo Jia who came with him.
Now he knows Zhuo Jia very well. When she has nothing to do, she likes to sit in the rocking chair outside and daydream. Why is she following him into the kitchen now?
Zhuo Jia whispered, "I need your help with something."
Although Zhang Yunhuan didn't let her interfere, she still wanted to ask, after all, there is strength in numbers.
"Why are you suddenly so polite?" Qiao Anchuan asked with a wary look on his face.
I always feel that Zhuo Jia has some big tricks waiting for me!
Zhuo Jia glared at him and said unhappily, "Are you going to agree or not?"
It’s just a matter of one sentence, why bother with all that nonsense!
Qiao Anchuan quickly said, "Tell me what's going on first, then I can know if I can help."
What if he agrees and then can’t do it?
He is not that kind of person!
Zhuo Jia was sure that even if someone in the yard couldn't hear what they were saying, she whispered, "It's about Zhang Yunhuan's work. I wrote to you about it before..."
She quickly recounted what had happened before, and finally asked, "Do you have any friends over there who can help Zhang Yunhuan?"
If Zhang Yunhuan couldn't return to the city this year, she would feel really guilty.
Qiao Anchuan frowned and said, "I have to ask."
If you want Zhang Yunhuan to return to the city, you have to find a job for Zhang Yunhuan in the city, and the job...
Forget it, he asked someone to help ask!
Zhuo Jia nodded: "Okay, remember to tell me when you're done asking."
This way she can communicate with Zhang Yunhuan's mother in advance!
Qiao Anchuan nodded: "Don't worry, I'll remember it."
After saying a few more words, Zhuo Jia went to lie down on the rocking chair outside again. It was still comfortable to bask in the sun outside.
In the afternoon, after taking a nap and waiting for the two children to finish their milk and fall asleep, Qiao Anchuan went out again. Zhuo Jia, who had nothing to do, said: "..."
She stared at her two children in a daze. When she was in the hospital, although she had the help of her mother-in-law and sister-in-law, she always felt extremely busy. Why did she become so idle now that she returned home?
Is Qiao Anchuan really that useful?
Although she was thinking, it did not affect Zhuo Jia at all and she was lying in the rocking chair outside thinking. However, this time she did not fall asleep while thinking because Aunt Ding came.
Zhuo Jia sat up and asked in surprise, "Auntie Ding, why are you here?"
Some time ago, Aunt Ding’s eldest daughter-in-law gave birth to the granddaughter that Ding Danian had been looking forward to for a long time, so Aunt Ding even went out less often!
Aunt Ding glared at her: "Look at what you said. If the county wasn't so far away, I would have gone to see you there a long time ago."
Ever since she found out Zhuo Jia had given birth to twins, a boy and a girl, she has been worried about them, but unfortunately she couldn't leave home.
Zhuo Jia: "..."
Fortunately, it was far away, otherwise she would be worried that there would be too many people in the ward!
"Is the child asleep?" Seeing her leisurely look, Aunt Ding asked knowingly.
As someone who has been through it, she knows too well what it's like to have a child!
Zhuo Jia nodded: "Everyone is asleep, I'll rest outside for a while."
Otherwise, as long as one of them is not asleep, she will not be able to sit outside for a while. Now she really understands what it means to be tied up by a child!
Aunt Ding smiled and said, "That's perfect. While the child is asleep, I'll tell you something new."
This matter was no longer a secret in the brigade, but Zhuo Jia, who had just returned from the hospital and had not yet left the house, certainly didn't know about it.
Hearing the news, Zhuo Jia's eyes lit up. She looked at Aunt Ding and asked curiously, "Aunt Ding, what's new in our brigade?"
Tell her quickly and let her know!
Aunt Ding also laughed, but she knew the child was asleep, so she lowered her voice and said, "Zhou Lin went to cause trouble for Wu Yun, and then was arrested. In the end, it was Huang Anbang who went to get him out!"
Although their brigade has been very lively since Zhou Lin married into it, this is definitely the most lively one.
Zhuo Jia was shocked. She asked in disbelief, "No, she's crazy. Why would she bother Wu Yun?"
To put it bluntly, what happened between Wu Yun and Huang Anbang wasn't Wu Yun's fault, right?
Aunt Ding shook her head and said, "Who knows about this? I heard that Zhou Lin cursed Wu Yun in a very ugly way, and Wu Yun's man heard it, and then he was arrested."
If she were to ask him, this was Zhou Lin's own fault. If she had the guts to scold Huang Anbang, she could have done so. What was the point of scolding Wu Yun?
Zhuo Jia couldn't help but shake her head. Everyone knew that Wu Yun's father-in-law was the leader of the Revolutionary Committee, so Zhou Lin was the one who was really upset!
Seeing that Aunt Ding looked like she had something else to do, Zhuo Jia couldn't help but ask, "And then?"
Wu Yun could so easily ask Huang Anbang to bring the person out, why did she not believe it!
Aunt Ding said mysteriously, "It's a rumor. I heard that when Huang Anbang was dating Wu Yun, he borrowed ten yuan from Wu Yun. After dividing the money, he never returned it to her, so Wu Yun took this opportunity to ask for the ten yuan back!"
She was shocked when she found out. Huang Anbang grew up under her care, and she never expected that he would be like this. When she thought about how she had wanted to match Zhuo Jia and Huang Anbang, she wanted to slap herself in the face!
Zhuo Jia was even more shocked: "No, Huang Anbang has done such a shameless thing before?"
He is so brave. He knows Wu Yun is a smart man, yet he dares to do such a thing!
Aunt Ding rolled her eyes and said, "It's only because his mother kept it a secret that she didn't know about it. Otherwise, she wouldn't have known about it until now."
Alas, with the return of Zhou Lin and Wu Yun this time, Huang Anbang has lost all his face, and his true face has been gradually revealed to everyone.
Thinking of the captain's wife, Zhuo Jia couldn't help shaking her head. Well, this is something the captain's wife can do. It's really...
So confused!
From now on, I'm afraid that the whole team's after-dinner fun will be Huang Anbang's business.
Zhuo Jia shook her head and asked, "With such a big fuss, Zhou Lin isn't afraid of losing Huang Anbang's job at all?"
Although she had only met Wu Yun once, she felt that based on her understanding of Wu Yun, Wu Yun would not give up so quickly. The Huang family's prosperous days were still to come.
