Chapter 1011 Outsiders
Brushing the dust off Bai Chuan's forehead, Fu Jingyou patted the boy's butt and put him back into He Hongjin's arms:
"You and Auntie should just be at peace and think about the good things that happen to Miaomiao and me. We came back to help you with some work this time, and we also took a break along the way. When we go to Beijing again, we'll really be busy."
"well……"
He Hongjin sighed deeply, frowned and looked up and down at Fu Jingyou.
Seeing that Fu Jingyou was in good spirits and had not lost weight, He Hongjin felt relieved.
But after all these things have happened, it is impossible to say that I am not worried at all.
But fearing that his words might come true, He Hongjin could only keep quiet and stop saying those unlucky words.
After the fifteenth day of the first lunar month after the New Year, the Fu family's beds and furniture had already been covered with snakeskin bags by the old couple and Tian Guihua.
Considering that he would be staying at home for half a month or even longer, Fu Jingyou took off all the covers.
Fu Jingyou felt relieved that He Hongjin was looking after the child.
He rolled up his sleeves and opened the back door of the kitchen. He picked up a piece of cloth to use as a rag, wet it, and wiped the headboard, tables and chairs.
The main thing is to clean up the room first so that I have a place to stay at night.
The rest can be sorted out slowly in the next two days.
After a while, I heard Tian Guihua standing at the other end of the pond calling for dinner.
The house has not been occupied for a long time and there is nothing valuable in it.
Fu Jingyou simply left the door open to let the musty smell out, and went back with He Hongjin to eat.
When I came back in the afternoon, Chen Guifen and Tian Guihua were both there, carrying rice and grain.
One of them is to come and help with cleaning and cooking.
Secondly, Chen Guifen and Tian Guihua also cleared the bed in the side room on the right side of the door.
We agreed to fire here for a while and stay here at night.
The Fu family lives in a separate house, and the house has not been occupied for a long time, so it is empty.
Fearing that there might be something dirty hidden, Chen Guifen and Tian Guihua came over to keep the family company. With more people around, the house would become more lively and atmosphere would gather faster.
There is more rain in the south than in the north, and the drainage ditch behind the Fu family's house was blocked by collapsed soil.
Fu Jingyou and He Hong went into the back of the house to repair the ditch, while Lu Miao took the children to work in the front room with Tian Guihua and Chen Guifen.
Lu Miao knew that Minjie was in school.
However, since I haven't seen Yaozong since I came back, Lu Miao asked:
"Where's Yaozong? Was he taken away by his mother again?"
Zhao Lanxiang was imprisoned for three months. Calculating the time, she should have been released by now.
Chen Guifen said:
"No, I went to school with Minjie."
Lu Miao was surprised:
"You can go to school at such a young age?"
Tian Guihua nodded and explained:
"The children can attend the Red Education Class as young as three, but they have to pay two yuan. Villagers are reluctant to spend the money, so few families send their children to the class."
As she spoke, Tian Guihua glanced at her mother-in-law and said to Lu Miao:
"Yaozong is no longer called that name. Dad said it's not nice, so he changed his household registration name to 'Minrui'."
Lu Miao nodded:
"This name is indeed better than the previous one."
The "Yao Zong Yao Zong" in the front sounds like a reek of feudal dregs.
While talking about these things, Lu Miao suddenly asked:
"Then who is that? Didn't he come back to cause trouble after he was released?"
Tian Guihua shook her head, naturally knowing who she was talking about.
Because Chen Guifen was beside her, and fearing that Chen Guifen would be unhappy if she heard, Tian Guihua lowered her voice:
"You must have calmed her down that time. She didn't come back to cause trouble, but I heard from others that she seemed to have had quite a fight with Big Brother in the county..."
Lu Miao took a moment to react before saying indifferently:
"Let them make trouble, just don't come back to bother you..."
After that, he took Tian Guifen's hand and said:
"Second sister-in-law, we live far away, and my uncle and aunt won't tell us if something happens. You should take care of him at home. If anything happens, please write to us as soon as possible!"
Tian Guihua nodded with a smile in her eyes.
Later, Tian Guihua mentioned Minmin again and asked Minmin how things were going after she left, and whether she had caused any trouble.
Lu Miao kept shaking his head, and thought of something, so he hurried to the room to look through the wicker box containing his luggage.
Minmin is a girl from the He family after all.
Firstly, the He family was afraid that Minmin would cause them trouble, and secondly, they were also concerned about Minmin's safety.
When Lu Miao came back before, he had considered this situation, so he brought back a lot of photos.
The earliest one was taken by Lu Miao when Minmin just arrived in Beijing North in the factory yard.
The most recent one is a family photo taken half a month ago.
Lu Miao washed two copies, left one in Jingbei, and brought the other back.
Of course there is more to it than that.
Lu Miao also developed and brought back the photos and family portraits that he had taken in his hometown during the Chinese New Year.
The family photo is large in size and is placed in a file bag.
The other scattered photos are of normal size and are still in envelopes.
Lu Miao took out something, and Chen Guifen and Tian Guihua came over to take a look.
Seeing that it was a photo, Chen Guifen and Tian Guihua put down the rag and subconsciously wiped their hands on their bodies before taking it to look at it.
"This is the courtyard where we live now, this was taken in my small factory, and this one is the cultural center, where Minmin is learning a craft now..."
Every time Chen Guifen and Tian Guihua looked at a new photo, Lu Miao would add an explanation.
Tian Guihua held the family portrait that Lu Miao had taken for them by Nianbian, and looked at it with reluctance.
Chen Guifen was holding another large photo and looking at it.
These were the photos that Lu Miao had just taken from the photo studio a few days ago.
Chen Guifen raised her arm and rubbed her eyes, saying:
"She's grown better, she's really grown better! Miao girl, has Minmin grown a little taller? She looks a lot whiter, and her original pointed chin is gone. You can even see some flesh on her face!"
Not only Minmin grew up well, but all the children grew up well.
It’s just that Minmin was too thin when she left home.
Compared to the past period of time, the changes in her are the most obvious.
"Yes, the Cultural Center is a state-owned enterprise. Minmin can eat well as an apprentice there, and the food is not bad!"
Lu Miao smiled and nodded and said:
"Last time I heard her say that she could have meat for every meal."
A child of this age can't do much, but as an apprentice, not only is he provided with food, but he can also eat meat every meal. This treatment is extremely good.
Tian Guihua leaned over to look at the photo and asked curiously:
“What exactly does a cultural center do?”
The cultural center contains many things, including national culture, traditional culture, and so on.
Afraid that Tian Guihua and Chen Guifen wouldn't understand if he explained it in detail, Lu Miao just mentioned in general that he was repairing old items in the ancient imperial palace.
The two nodded, not quite understanding.
Finally, Chen Guifen carefully put away the photo, took Lu Miao's hand, and said with deep emotion:
"You are so thoughtful. It is Minmin's blessing in this life to meet you as her aunt."
Chen Guifen's words were sincere and serious, which made them seem a little too serious.
Lu Miao sighed helplessly:
"Aunt, we are all family. Aren't you treating me as an outsider by saying this?"
