"It's cold, Jinfeng, I'll help you wash the vegetables!" Lu Jianguo held Tuantuan in one hand and freed up the other hand to say to Li Jinfeng.
Li Jinfeng turned around, shook her head and smiled at him, "It's okay, I washed the vegetables with hot water, they're not cold! But you, have you come back for dinner? Are you hungry?"
Lu Jianguo shook his head, "I'm not hungry!"
Although he didn't have breakfast, his heart was filled with happiness when he saw his wife and children, so how could he feel hungry?
Having said that, Li Jinfeng still took advantage of the large pocket of her cotton-padded jacket to take out a cooked egg from the space, peeled the eggshell for Lu Jianguo, and handed the egg to Lu Jianguo, "Eat an egg first, I'll be done in a moment!"
Lu Jianguo couldn't bear to refuse the eggs peeled by his wife.
But before eating, he still asked: "Have you eaten?"
"Of course! Our family's financial situation is not such that I can't afford to crack an egg. This is what I couldn't eat this morning. I kept it covered in my cotton-padded clothes, and it's still warm now." Li Jinfeng said casually.
After hearing this, Lu Jianguo ate the eggs with peace of mind.
After he finished eating, Li Jinfeng handed him a cup of warm water.
Then I started preparing lunch.
While preparing lunch, Li Jinfeng asked about Xia Weidong.
Li Jinfeng still clearly remembered Miao Hong's hesitation last time.
However, she hadn't been back to the compound for a long time, so she didn't know the specific situation.
Speaking of Xia Weidong, Lu Jianguo also expressed regret.
"He is still down there, saying he's at the research institute, and he's just helping to organize files every day. He and I spoke on the phone once because of work, and he's not doing well right now," said Lu Jianguo.
"Then he..."
"When he left, he left all the food coupons, food coupons, and money to Miao Hong and the children. He even had food to eat. I asked my colleagues to bring him some money and food coupons, but unexpectedly, he returned them to me intact, saying that he had not paid back what he owed me before and now he didn't want to owe it to me anymore." Lu Jianguo said.
Li Jinfeng could see that Lu Jianguo still cared about his friend Xia Weidong.
Li Jinfeng told Lu Jianguo about her encounter with Miao Hong.
This includes Miao Hong's changing attitude.
"It's time for her to change. If the institute hadn't remembered Old Xia's contributions over the years, they would have stopped letting her live in that yard long ago," said Lu Jianguo.
Xia Weidong was destroyed by Miao Hong herself.
If she hadn't been so narrow-minded, trusting, and talking nonsense, Xia Weidong wouldn't be like this now.
Thinking of this, Lu Jianguo felt lucky again.
He never mentions his wife or even his own occupation to others.
Even to my own family, I always said that I was in the seed business and never defended myself.
In fact, as long as she says that she is engaged in scientific research, everyone knows without thinking how much those people outside will respect her.
But she didn't, she didn't want to cause him trouble.
If Miao Hong had had the same attitude at the beginning, why would Old Xia have acted like this!
I can only say that it is fate that plays tricks on me.
"Brother Jianguo, should we... help Comrade Xia?" Li Jinfeng asked.
"I want to help too, but how can I help?" Lu Jianguo asked.
"Do you still remember your classmate at the Northeast Forest Farm?" Li Jinfeng asked.
"kindness?"
"Didn't I send him some food back then, and he sent us a lot of dried meat? Comrade Xia, let's do the same here."
