Chapter 16 Xiao Qingru's Expectations
When Xiao Qingru returned home from work, he heard about what happened between Jiang Chuan and Du Wanqiu.
"I don't know what Jiang Chuan was thinking. He insisted that Dad help me keep Du Wanqiu at home. Dad was so angry that he almost cut off all ties with me."
"During the day, my mother came to our house to chat with me, and she started crying while talking."
"You said Jiang Chuan is really stupid. If he keeps Du Wanqiu, doesn't that mean he will have to support her for the rest of her life?"
"Such a heavy responsibility is not so easy to bear, and you have to bear it for the rest of your life. Otherwise, if something happens in the future, Jiang Chuan will be blamed to death, right?"
Isn't it obvious how a man should bear the burden of a woman's second half of life?
I don't know if Jiang Chuan is really stupid or just pretending to be stupid.
Fortunately, Qingru has not married Jiangchuan yet, otherwise she would be regretting it now.
As Xiao's mother spoke, she paid attention to her daughter's expression.
Seeing her expression change, her face was full of calmness, as if she was listening to the news of an unimportant person, and she did not lose her appetite because of Jiang Chuan and Du Wanqiu's matter.
Xiao's mother couldn't help but feel happy, it seemed that her daughter had really let it go.
We all live in the same family compound, and we see each other every day. It is impossible to completely avoid the Jiang family.
At this time, Xiao's mother talked about their affairs, and at the same time she wanted to see her daughter's attitude.
On the other hand, I feel that the more you deliberately avoid some problems, the more they will deepen the traces of their existence.
We have to avoid the Jiang family as much as possible. People who don't know would think that Qingru of our family can't let go of Jiangchuan.
He snorted, wanting to let everyone see that they didn't care about Jiangchuan at all.
Missing Qingru will be a huge loss!
Xiao Huaishu glanced at his sister, thinking that he should help his brother, "Mom, don't mention people who make you feel disgusted when you are eating."
"Don't mention it again, or I'll get so angry that I'll have to beat you up one day."
Fighting is not allowed. Xiao's mother said quickly, "Okay, okay, let's not talk about it. It has nothing to do with our family anyway. Do whatever you want!"
I gave my son and daughter a steamed bun each. "It's cold, you need to eat more to keep your body warm."
"Mom, you eat too."
Xiao Qingru served her mother a bowl of hot porridge and cut the steamed bun in front of her into two.
“I can’t finish it all by myself.”
Xiao's mother took it naturally and said, "Tomorrow morning, I will cook eggs for you. I will add some ginger and brown sugar to it. I guarantee you will be warm all day long."
Because Xiao Qingru had been frozen in the snow, her mother wanted to help her recuperate.
It would be bad if the disease remains.
"The basket that Xiao Xu brought is enough for you to eat for a month. When you finish it, Mom will go to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy more, or go to the homes of fellow villagers to exchange some."
"Mom, let's eat together. It's embarrassing for me to eat alone."
"You are a patient, and you have had surgery. What's wrong with eating some good supplements?"
"The sick ones are me, and the weak ones are you. It's good for everyone to help each other."
Xiao Xiao didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "Our family is well off enough to afford eggs, but we're not living in such a tight situation. If you lose your voucher, tell me and I'll find a way."
Xiao Huaishu took out a stack of bills from his coat pocket and said, "Mom, take it first."
If you look closely, you can see grain coupons, meat coupons, oil coupons...all kinds of coupons.
"Keep your allowance and receipts for yourself. You will need them to marry a wife in the future."
"I've saved the money." He put the bill in front of his mother. "I'm already 20 years old. I can't just stay at home and eat for free."
"I'll take it, if you need it, you can get it from me."
"OK."
This time when Xiao Qingru fell ill, Xiao's mother thoroughly understood that the body is the capital of revolution.
Then, he said generously: "I will cook an egg for each of you every day."
"Don't forget your own."
"I don't go to work, why do I have to eat so well?"
No one at the table agreed with this.
Xiao Huaishu said, "Why don't you have a workday? Your workday is at home, and your job includes washing clothes, cooking, and cleaning. Which of these is not hard work? What's wrong with eating an egg?"
Xiao Qingru agreed, "You do several jobs by yourself, and you are the one who contributes the most to our family."
"Dad, you have to pay my mom."
"Hasn't my salary been paid? How can I get more money?"
Xiao's mother was overjoyed by her two children. "Your father is very clean-handed. I have to give him pocket money."
Xiao 꿵 looked embarrassed and said, "Well, let's eat."
She looked at her husband with a smile and said, "Okay, give me some face in front of the children."
Her husband was considerate and her children were sensible. They did not look down on her because she had no job and could not make money. Xiao's mother's heart was warm.
She didn't know how she could be so lucky to have such a husband and child.
"Mr. Xiao, drink more porridge. It's easier to digest."
"Alas, I can only drink porridge when I am old."
"You said that. I don't know if you would think I have treated you unfairly."
"Who dares to think so? Tell me, I'll go talk to you. Eating too much at night is not good for your health. You're really concerned about me."
"Enjoy your meal."
Looking at the way her mother and son get along, Xiao Qingru felt envious.
My father is very dignified in front of outsiders, but at home, he is just an ordinary man.
I originally thought that since she and Jiangchuan had a childhood sweetheart relationship, their relationship would be better and deeper.
But in the end, she was just being sentimental.
Although now she just wants to dance well and develop her career, Xiao Qingru still has a kind of expectation in her heart.
I hope my future husband will be like this.
She doesn't ask for much, as long as she is a good person and can firmly choose her at any time, that's enough.
