Liu Guihua raised her hand and touched Daman's head: "Daman, it's true that your uncle is a doctor, but he can't cure every disease. You are a child, and children should not get involved in matters between adults."
Daman nodded, not quite understanding, but thinking of the happy time he had with Uncle Jiang today, he couldn't help but say, "Mom, if Uncle can help Uncle Jiang heal his leg, Aunt Ye will definitely be very happy."
"Well, Mom knows. Go eat your cookies now!"
"good."
In the blink of an eye, another week has passed.
Ye Li worked an overtime shift on Saturday and left the factory early in the afternoon.
She did not return to the slum, but went straight to Liu Guihua's house.
Liu Guihua was cutting up her old clothes at home, trying to make two new clothes for her two sons.
She had no cloth coupons and could not buy cloth, so she had only this method.
...
...
Hearing a knock on the door, Liu Guihua got up to open it, but unexpectedly, the person standing outside the door was Ye Li.
"Ye Li, why are you here?"
"Sister Guihua, I'm working overtime today. I'll come to see you after get off work."
"Come in quickly!" Liu Guihua hurriedly invited Ye Li into the house and quickly put away the clothes that she had cut into pieces.
Seeing this, Ye Li laughed: "Sister Guihua, do you remember what I told you before? When I came back from the factory today, I picked out two pieces of defective cloth. You can cut some clothes for the two children."
"This... How can this be so embarrassing?"
"What's the big deal? My defective cloth has some flaws, but it's not a big problem. It's still suitable for making clothes. You can cut a few clothes for Daman and Xiaoman."
"This defective cloth is also in short supply. Ye Li, how much is it? I don't have cloth coupons, but I can pay you!" Liu Guihua took out a roll of wool coupons from her pocket and was about to give it to Ye Li.
"It's not much money, just take it."
"That won't do! If you do this, I won't dare let you in again! You have to!"
Ye Li smiled and said, "Sister Guihua, it's really hard for others to buy this defective cloth. I'm close to you, so it's not difficult for me to get some defective cloth. How about this, I don't want your money this time, but if you need cloth in the future, just tell me, and then you can spend money to buy my cloth! Do you think this is okay?"
"Just accept it this time, I'll come back to you later."
"Sister Guihua, if you give me money this time, I won't give you cloth in the future."
"this……"
"What's this, what's that? Hurry up and put the cloth away!"
"Then I'll be welcome."
"You're welcome to talk to me."
"I feel really bad for always bothering you."
Ye Li smiled and said, "If you feel bad, you can help me when I need your help in the future."
"Okay, don't worry, as long as you need me, I will definitely help you."
"Okay." Ye Li agreed, "Sister Guihua, I'll go back now. Jiang Xun is alone at home. It's inconvenient for him without me around."
After Liu Guihua hesitated for a while, she asked, "Ye Li, Jiang Xun's leg... have you found a doctor?"
Ye Li nodded. "I've been looking for one! I heard there's a good doctor in the People's Hospital, but later he refused to hold a scalpel! My friend in the hospital said he's really capable, and he used to be an orthopedic doctor. I was thinking of asking him around to see if he could check Jiang Xun's leg."
Liu Guihua opened her mouth, but finally suppressed the words: "Okay, you ask around first."
Ye Li was implementing his plan step by step, and Jiang Xun was focusing on improving the design of the engine every day.
The couple stayed in the room at night, one sat at the table reading a book, while the other was thinking about how to make money.
Every time Zhao Xingmei passed by her eldest son's window, she could not hear any movement inside the house.
I'm quite anxious.
"Jiang Xi, have your brother and sister-in-law been active recently?"
In the kitchen, Zhao Xingmei asked her son Jiang Xi while picking leeks.
Jiang Xi lazily sat on the stool, helping Zhao Xingmei with her work listlessly: "What's the noise?"
"What do you think? Don't play dumb. There's only a wall between your room and your brother's room, so it's not very soundproof... In their room, isn't there any squeaking sound from the bed shaking at night?"
Jiang Xi glanced at his mother and sneered, "No. It's not that there is no, it's that there has never been one at all!"
"No? I see your brother and sister-in-law have a good relationship?" Zhao Xingmei asked.
"Good relationship? Maybe it's just a superficial phenomenon. Look at what time my sister-in-law comes home every day? There is no movement in the house after she comes back! These days, I can't hear them say a word in the whole night."
"real?"
"Can I still lie to you?"
"This...what's going on? Why do I feel like your sister-in-law has been acting strange recently? She leaves early and comes back late, and she doesn't cook...do you think these two are having some kind of quarrel?"
Jiang Xi sneered, "We've been married for such a long time, and I haven't heard anything. It's strange that you can't tell me there's a problem! Mom, do you think my brother is... not good enough?"
"Bah, bah, bah! Stop talking nonsense!"
"Otherwise, why are the two of them still not having sex?" Jiang Xi said, and then suddenly said, "Could it be that my brother doesn't know what to do? Or... my sister-in-law dislikes him?"
"Pfft! Stop guessing! Get on with your job!"
Jiang Xi shrugged: "You were the one who asked me the question, and you were also the one who told me not to guess blindly! If you really want to know why my brother didn't do that with Ye Li...why don't you go and ask him in person?"
"Why are you asking? I think we should look for the reason and find a chance to give them a push, and then the matter will be settled." Zhao Xingmei said.
"Everything is done, Aunt Zhao!" Huang Xiuxiu's voice rang out.
Zhao Xingmei was startled. She turned around and saw Huang Xiuxiu standing outside the door holding an empty bowl. "Oh, you scared me to death!"
"Aunt Zhao, I'm so sorry, I'm out of soy sauce at home and I just happened to be cooking. I'll take some soy sauce from you and return it to you tomorrow."
Zhao Xingmei usually doesn't want to pay attention to Huang Xiuxiu, but today, she came to the door with a bowl in her hand. It was just a matter of having a sip of soy sauce, so she agreed.
"Here, I'll pour you some."
"Thank you, Aunt Zhao!"
After Huang Xiuxiu borrowed the soy sauce, she carried it back.
The conversation between Jiang Xi and Aunt Zhao kept echoing in her head.
It turns out that these two people have never done anything intimate between husband and wife?
Could there be something going on between the two of them?
At this moment, a bold idea jumped into her mind, and Huang Xiuxiu felt that her chance had come.
