Chapter 55 Chapter 55 This word is really good
Zhuang Wei was on a mission outside a few days ago and did not go home. When he got home this evening, the first thing he said was that he wanted to send Zhuang Xiaohu back to his hometown in the countryside.
"Why?" Yu Lili became unhappy after hearing this.
Although she always said that she wanted to send Zhuang Xiaohu away, it was just to scare the child.
In order to free up room at home and make life more comfortable, she even sent her eldest daughter back home, just so that Zhuang Xiaohu could come here to study.
Yu Lili: "There's not even a place in my hometown where people can learn to read. Even though I don't like studying, I know this child has no future if he doesn't go to school. Isn't that what you said yourself?"
Zhuang Wei's face was very bad. "I know everything about what happened that night. Look at you. You are usually very smart and make connections everywhere, but why do you not use your brains and become confused at the critical moment?"
"What's wrong? It can't be in the army..."
"Don't worry about it." Zhuang Wei snorted coldly. "Anyway, even if Xiaohu goes to school now, he'll probably be ostracized by his classmates. It's better for him to go back than to stay here."
"No! Xiaohu has become like this. In my opinion, it's because your parents didn't teach him well. Just scare the child, but don't really send him away. I don't agree."
"You have to agree even if you don't want to. Also, come with me to apologize to Captain Zhao's family later."
"you……"
"Stop wasting your time with me. Forget about anything else. Xiaohu must be sent away."
Zhuang Xiaohu burst into tears with a "wah".
Zhuang Wei: "Cry? There's no point crying now! I've let you down for being so ignorant and causing me so much trouble. I'm lucky I didn't beat you up!"
Zhuang Wei was really angry this time. Yu Lili tried to persuade him again and again, but he became even more angry. Finally, Yu Lili had no choice but to follow Zhuang Wei and take the children to the next door.
Lu Qinghe was a little surprised, but still let them go in first.
Zhuang Wei put down the egg cake he was carrying and said, "Sister-in-law Lu, I wasn't home that night. I want to apologize to your Lu Yang on behalf of my Zhuang Xiaohu. I'm sorry."
"Kneel down!" Yu Lili shouted and forced Zhuang Xiaohu to kneel beside Lu Qinghe.
Yu Lili: "Qinghe, my Xiaohu was wrong. I beat him up when I got home. He was raised by his grandparents. They were not well-educated and they let their children do whatever they wanted. As a result, he didn't have time to learn and reform some of his bad habits and personalities. Qinghe, I asked Xiaohu to kneel down and apologize to you, but Xiaohu really can't go back to his hometown, otherwise he will have no future!"
"Yu Lili!" Zhuang Wei frowned. "You kept quiet at home. So you had this in mind."
Yu Lili sighed, "I can't help it, Qinghe, Xiaohu really knows he's wrong!"
Lu Qinghe and Zhao Zhanming looked at each other. Zhao Zhanming frowned and pulled Zhuang Xiaohu up first.
Zhao Zhanming: "We accept your apology. Lao Zhuang, you can take your wife and children back home."
Zhuang Wei looked at Lu Qinghe, "Sister-in-law Lu, this..."
Lu Qinghe hesitated for a moment before saying, "What Yu Lili said makes some sense, but I'm afraid the child will have a hard time in school in the future. Old Zhao is right. We accept the apology, and let the matter be over. As for the rest, it's your family's business, and we won't interfere."
"well……"
Zhuang Wei sighed deeply, and Yu Lili thanked Lu Qinghe before pulling Zhuang Xiaohu, who was still crying, away.
I don’t know what the couple finally discussed, but Zhuang Xiaohu was never sent back to his hometown.
It was only about a week later that Zhuang Xiaohu started going to school again.
The weather was getting warmer, and the Dragon Boat Festival in May was approaching. The supply and marketing cooperative bought a batch of mugwort and candied dates in time, and every household bought some to take home with their food coupons.
Lu Qinghe cut a few sachets out of the unworn clothes at home and hung them on the door, and also filled a few with mugwort for the children to play with.
"Mom, what's this called?"
"Longevity Thread."
Lu Qinghe found some colorful threads and made a rope for each of the children in the family to tie around their wrists. She also prepared a few sachets and longevity threads, and put them in a bamboo basket together with some salted duck egg and meat dumplings that she had prepared in advance.
"Let's go, I'll take you to play with Wei Yue today."
"Great!" Lu Yao fiddled with the string on her wrist and jumped around.
"Are we all going?" Zhao Zirui asked, "But isn't Brother Zimo at home?"
"I told him in advance, he doesn't want to go, so I'll just take you there. Wei Yue will also get along well with you. Let's go, we can also visit Aunt Liu's little brother."
As soon as I went out, I met Yu Lili who was also going out.
Ever since the last incident with Zhuang Xiaohu, Yu Lili rarely went out for a while. When she met Lu Qinghe, she just greeted him briefly and didn't say much.
However, time always dilutes many emotions. In a blink of an eye, it has been almost a month. The scratches and scars on the back of Lu Yang's hands have faded a lot. Zhuang Xiaohu has also adapted to the life here a little. Yu Lili's family has gradually returned to peace, and she speaks normally again.
"Qinghe, where are we going?" Yu Lili asked.
"I went to see my friend, the one from the Third Line Factory. She had a baby a while ago, and although she didn't celebrate the full month, she told me to go talk when I was free. I figured the kids were on vacation anyway, and the Dragon Boat Festival was coming up soon, so I went to see her."
"You two have a really good relationship."
"We grew up together."
"By the way, Qinghe, do you have any cotton thread at home? Come back and lend me some. I don't have enough thread to tie the rice dumplings."
"I use horseweed. There's some left at the door. You can go get it directly."
"Thank you Qinghe."
The two of them walked all the way to the gate of the military family compound before they parted ways. Lu Qinghe did not wait for the bus, but stood for a while. When he saw a military jeep coming from the front, he waved.
"Xiao Li."
"Hello, sister-in-law."
"Come and help me carry my things."
For fear of attracting attention, Lu Qinghe asked Zhao Zhanming to leave ten minutes earlier in the morning and put some prepared rice dumplings and smoked meat in the guardhouse.
After all the things were loaded into the car, Lu Qinghe asked the children to get in and gave Xiao Li some of the silk threads he had made for sachets.
"Thank you for your hard work, Xiao Li. You should have had a day off today, but I asked you to come over. I also prepared a portion of homemade rice dumplings for you. Take it home and try it."
Xiao Li smiled and said, "You're too polite, sister-in-law. The day after tomorrow is the Dragon Boat Festival, and we're actually officially on holiday tomorrow. Who are you going to see?"
"She's a friend I grew up with, and we both happen to be in Huashi. She gave birth to a child last month, so I wanted to visit her before the Dragon Boat Festival."
"We are all from other places here, so it's really not easy to have a fellow countryman."
"Yeah, when you get there later, just return the things you left there. It won't interfere with your other tasks."
Xiao Li thought for a moment and said, "It's okay, sister-in-law. I'll be waiting for you outside."
"I've already told Lao Zhao. It will only take up half an hour of your time."
"The orderly has nothing to occupy. Sister-in-law, please don't be polite."
"The main thing is that I want to talk to my friends. I might not be back until very late. It would be difficult to carry things with me when I go there. We can just take the bus back."
"Okay then."
They soon arrived at the staff quarters of the Third Line Factory. Xiao Li helped put the things at the gate and then left.
Lu Qinghe watched him leave, but did not leave in a hurry. After temporarily storing an extra basket at the gate, she led the children inside.
Liu Yanru's home is on the second floor and she uses a public toilet and kitchen. Before she even got there, she saw her mother-in-law hanging diapers outside.
"Qinghe is here!"
Kong Guifen shouted, and after seeing the bamboo basket in Lu Qinghe's hand, she eagerly welcomed him into the house.
Wei Yue was the first to run out, and soon gathered together with a few friends.
"Where is your mother?" Lu Qinghe asked.
"Here!" Liu Yanru poked her head out from the public kitchen at the end of the corridor. "Wait a moment, it'll be ready soon."
Lu Qinghe took a look and said, "Where is the toilet here? I'm going to the toilet first."
"On the first floor, walk east and there's a dry toilet with better conditions."
"become."
As he spoke, Lu Qinghe told the children to stay in the house and not go out, then he quickened his pace and hurried downstairs.
But when he reached the corner, Lu Qinghe changed direction, went back to the gate to get his things, then turned around and went to the door numbers one by one according to what Ye Yulian had told him before.
"Xiao Lu, here!" After walking down a street, Lu Qinghe heard Ye Yulian calling him. Behind her stood an elderly man with gray hair.
"Come now, bring anything with you!"
As soon as Lu Qinghe walked over, Ye Yulian quickly closed the door.
Lu Qinghe: "It's not much, just a little gift from me and Lao Zhao. It's the holiday season soon, so we have some homemade rice dumplings, dried meat, and some candied yellow croaker. These things are not available outside, so we're giving them to you and the old couple to try."
After saying that, Lu Qinghe stuffed the bamboo basket in his hand and turned to look at the old man, "This is..."
"It's my dad." Ye Yulian's eyes were red. "Just call me uncle."
"Well, hello Uncle Ye."
"Okay, okay, everything is okay." Ye Fuhua's voice choked unconsciously.
They had made an appointment two days in advance. In order to avoid attracting attention, Ye Yulian took Ye Fuhua to her home in advance.
"Are you... feeling okay? Zhao Zhanming is not able to come out, so he asked me to come visit you and ask you to take good care of yourself. Also...what about Aunt Ye? Is she okay?" After entering the room and sitting down, Lu Qinghe asked slowly, carefully choosing his words.
"She..." Ye Fuhua felt a little sad for a moment and sighed, "She doesn't know about this. I didn't tell her because I was afraid she would make a fuss."
Ye Yulian also smiled bitterly: "My mother is a little depressed, and she is a little dazed because of Bao Jin's incident. I was afraid that she would do something wrong, so I didn't tell her."
Lu Qinghe guessed in his heart, "That's good. If you have any difficulties in life or medical treatment, just tell me and we can help you contact a better hospital."
"It's okay, it's gotten much better these days."
Ye Fuhua didn't care about anything else and just kept looking at Lu Qinghe.
This is Mingming’s current wife, his daughter-in-law.
His appearance is indeed impeccable, and he speaks and acts in a steady and careful manner. No matter how you look at him, Ye Fuhua seems to be happy.
"Ming...what's his name now?"
"Zhao Zhanming."
"Yes, Zhao Zhanming, there is still a word called 'Ming'. This word is good, this word is really good."
Lu Qinghe felt the old man's excitement and let him look at her, with a lot of thoughts in his mind for a while.
