Chapter 25 Condoms as Balloons
The Dragon Boat Festival was approaching, and Huo Qingqing finally received a letter from her mother, saying that her mother and elder brother would arrive in Hanjiagou before the Dragon Boat Festival. Huo Qingqing's mood, which had been depressed for a long time, finally improved.
It was Han Jianwu who brought the letter back for her. After reading the letter, she started spinning around on the spot again, and her skirt started spinning with her. The two kids and Han Jianwu were stunned!
Niu Niu said in a baby voice, "Mommy turned into flowers and clouds!"
Huo Qingqing hugged her daughter and kissed her hard, "Oh my god, my girl actually has a talent for literature! What the hell!"
The son pouted, "Mom doesn't like me~"
This stinky son refused to acknowledge her as his biological mother in his previous life. Huo Qingqing was really not as good to him as she was to her daughter. The main reason was that her daughter was never found in her previous life, so she had to compensate her extra in this life! Of course, she loves their son very much too!
Huo Qingqing squatted on the ground and hugged the two children in her arms, kissing them left and right, "Mom loves you two so much! Grandma and uncle are coming to see us! Are you happy, babies?"
The two kids saw the photos of their grandma and uncle a while ago and said, "So happy!"
Niuniu: "Dad is happy too!"
Han Jianwu squatted down and hugged the three of them in his arms, "Yes, Dad is happy too!"
Niuniu, "Mommy wants to kiss Daddy too!"
"???"
How could this daughter be so good!
The little girl's speech has been getting better and better lately, but she is still very quiet and likes to observe, especially the interaction between her parents. She has noticed that her parents are different recently.
Dad would often hug Mom, and Mom would stand on tiptoes to kiss Dad, just like she kissed her and her brother!
Han Jianwu kissed Huo Qingqing on the cheek. The two little ones covered their faces with their hands, leaving only a peek through the gaps between their fingers, and they were giggling!
Han Jianwu, "Qingqing, I'm so nervous."
Huo Qingqing, "Uh! You are the troublemaker in Hanjiagou! Why are you so nervous?"
Han Jianwu, "How can I not be nervous when I'm going to meet my mother-in-law and my brother-in-law?"
Huo Qingqing patted Han Jianwu on the shoulder. "Comrade Han Jianwu, don't be nervous. Didn't you read my mother's reply? She said that the man I like must be a good person. They also respect my choice. They are very satisfied with you."
Han Jianwu, "If they come and want to take you away, will you go?" Han Jianwu asked carefully.
The incident with Gao Yunxia and Lin Anan made Han Jianwu lose confidence in Huo Qingqing once again. These country bumpkins still looked down on the city people. No matter how poor they were, they were still better off than these country folk. They committed such a serious crime, but they were able to handle it.
It is said that it is difficult for educated youth to return to the city because it is difficult to find jobs, but weren’t Gao Yunxia and Lin Anan also sent back by their families?
Huo Qingqing said, "Don't worry. I'm different from them. As long as someone comes to receive them, the brigade can handle the formalities for them. But I'm different. I'm no longer an educated youth, but a villager of Hanjiagou. My household registration is in the same book as yours. Our family of four are farmers, and I can't leave." If she wanted to leave, she would have to abandon her husband and children.
Han Jianwu was also aware of this truth. There were also male educated youth in other brigades of the commune who married local girls, but later the men abandoned their wives and children when they had the chance. But it seems that Han Jianwu is the only local farmer in Guanshan Commune who married a female educated youth.
Han Jianwu sighed, "Tell me the truth, do you want to leave?"
Huo Qingqing looked at Han Jianwu and said, "To be honest, who would want to stay here, working from sunrise to sunset and not having enough to eat or wear warm clothes? You don't want to, do you? But your ancestors have been like this for generations and have no choice, while the educated youth have a choice.
But I can't bear to leave you and the children, but I want to pass the college entrance examination and return to the city. Han Jianwu, do you want to go to college? Let’s take the college entrance examination together? ”
Han Jianwu stared at Huo Qingqing for a while, then sighed, "Let's not talk about the fact that there is no such thing as the college entrance examination now. Even if I could take the exam, I wouldn't be able to do it. How can it be that easy to get into college? I didn't even finish junior high school, okay?"
Huo Qingqing, "It doesn't matter if you didn't finish junior high school. As long as you want to take the exam, you still have a chance. I have so many books now. My mother and eldest brother will also bring some books this time. Can you read with me? I will tutor you and be your teacher. You will definitely pass the exam."
Han Jianwu, "Even if they all pass the exam, what should we do with the children? Should we just leave them here?"
Huo Qingqing, "How could that be? We both went to the provincial capital to study at university, and brought the child back to my house to raise him."
Han Jianwu, "What about the money for college? Do you want your parents to pay for their milk powder, food, drink and toilet expenses? Qingqing, you think too simply."
Huo Qingqing, "University doesn't charge tuition and there's a living allowance. We can do small business to make money on weekends and during summer and winter vacations! It's better than being here anyway."
Han Jianwu, "Are you so sure that the college entrance examination will be resumed next year?"
Huo Qingqing, "I'm not sure, but you can see that many policies are changing this year. The college entrance examination is the most discussed and most concerned issue! I think it's very likely. The college entrance examination does not distinguish between workers, cadres, soldiers, farmers, etc., so we can both take it!"
Han Jianwu touched Huo Qingqing's head and said, "I'd better forget it. I've put down my textbooks for so many years. You should study hard. If the college entrance examination is really restored, then go and take it! I will support you and your child."
Huo Qingqing, "Isn't it time yet? You still have time to study!"
Han Jianwu, "But I don't have the time and energy. You see, I have to drive a horse carriage during the day, go home to take care of the children at night, and go to the market four times a month. This is under normal circumstances. It's the harvest season soon. Don't you know how busy it is? Don't say anything. I won't take the exam. You study hard and pass the college entrance examination for us in the future so that your man can also benefit from it!"
Huo Qingqing snorted and pretended to be angry, "You still know that you are my man?"
Han Jianwu, "Of course I know! How could I not know about this?"
Huo Qingqing, "Since you know he's my man, why don't you fulfill your responsibilities?"
Han Jianwu, "I." He noticed that Huo Qingqing blushed, and then he thought of something. He smiled and whispered in her ear, "Are you talking about that? Do you think I don't want to? Am I worried that you will regret it one day?"
Huo Qingqing said, "I don't want to tell you any more. Believe it or not. Give the condoms you bought to the two kids to use as balloons!"
Han Jianwu chuckled and said, "Nonsense, how can you use it as a balloon?"
Niuniu, "Mom, I want to play with balloons!"
“Puff!”
Huo Qingqing's face turned black again, and she asked, "Do you want to keep it for you and that so-and-so?"
Han Jianwu was shocked. "What nonsense are you talking about? How could I have anything to do with anyone?"
Huo Qingqing pouted, "Stop pretending. Do you dare to say that there is nothing between you and that Li Lianhua?"
Han Jianwu, "Oh~ It's nothing! It was just a joke among the villagers when we were young. Do you take it seriously?"
Huo Qingqing looked at the anxious Han Jianwu and said, "But Lianhua has been waiting for you!"
