Chapter 436: Shi An
"I heard there are two college students in this house!"
"Wow, that's incredible!"
He can afford to support two college students and still live such a comfortable life.
Some of the people who were chatting together speculated about the background of the Fu family.
Some also praised the young wife of the Fu family for her pretty appearance.
There were also a few older women with pigtails tied crookedly on their chests who looked at each other and joked that the young man had a great physique.
I walked such a long way carrying the sewing machine.
He doesn't even breathe hard, and looks energetic.
Under the shadow of the tree, a few younger female comrades on the edge blushed with embarrassment.
There is no need to explain where the power is.
Most of the people present were married, and they all knew what that meant.
Men aren't the only ones who make dirty jokes.
Sometimes women do too.
…
It’s still early and it will take some time for lunch to be ready at home.
Fu Jingyou went into the house, set up the sewing machine, said hello to Lu Miao, and went to the ice factory.
In the past, he always tried to hide his feelings, but now everything is legitimate and aboveboard. Without any psychological burden, Fu Jingyou ran lightly and quickly.
The excitement on their part was hard to ignore.
Zhou Hong looked at him and said:
"What's going on? Are you dating? You look so happy?"
Fu Jingyou shook his head, rubbed the back of his head and said with a smile:
"I've been married for several years... Before I came here to work, my wife didn't know, and I always felt heavy inside."
"What? Do you know now?"
Fu Jingyou nodded: "Yeah, the one standing at that street corner looking this way last time was my wife."
"Oh my, you're great, boy. You're handsome, and your wife is pretty too! What does your wife do?"
We chatted while working, all about daily life, nothing to hide.
Fu Jingyou always said directly: "My wife is a student at the Military Region University."
"Oh, that's incredible! I heard that Military Region University is one of the best universities in the country!"
Fu Jingyou nodded and said "yes" with a smile.
When others praised his wife, he felt warmed, happy and proud, and worked harder.
Today's work was done even faster than before.
Fu Jingyou took the money, chatted with Zhou Hong for a while and was about to go back when he suddenly heard someone calling "Dad".
With two children at home, Fu Jingyou developed a habit of looking back subconsciously.
A head with dark hair and dark skin popped out from the passenger seat of the Dongfeng pickup truck.
"Brother Zhou, what is this?"
"Haha, I forgot to mention that."
Zhou Hong opened the passenger door, unfastened the seat belt, and lifted the little black boy down.
The little kid is as tall as an adult, probably around four years old.
"This is my son Zhou Shian, he's four years old now."
"His mother passed away early, so he was raised by his grandmother in Northeast China. Now that his grandfather has passed away, his wife, brother-in-law and husband sent him here."
Zhou Hong patted his son's messy head:
"Kid, this is your Uncle Fu. You have to call him Uncle when you see him from now on. Do you understand?"
Zhou Shian's eyebrows were furrowed together and his face was stern. Not only did he not want to be kind to Fu Jingyou, he even refused to be kind to his own father.
She slapped her father's hand away and climbed into the car with her little butt twisted.
Zhou Hong laughed heartily, "Hahahaha," "The brat is so shy just after arriving here, Brother Xiao Fu, don't take it to heart."
Fu Jingyou shook his head. Why would he bother with a child?
Zhou Hong closed the car door.
He and Zhou Hong stood at the rear of the car and talked:
"So you'll take your child with you when you travel in the future?"
Zhou Hong rubbed his short hair, with a smile on his face, and was very optimistic about life:
"I can't leave it alone. It's still too small. I'm worried about leaving it at home alone."
Fu Jingyou had a general understanding of Zhou Hong's situation.
He previously thought Zhou Hong was single, but after further investigation today he found out that his wife had died.
It is really not easy for a man to take care of a child, especially one so young.
Fu Jingyou recalled the difficult time before and could empathize with Zhou Hong's predicament.
Zhou Hong was quite tolerant of his work at the ice factory.
"I have children at home, and I live close to here..."
After thinking for a while, Fu Jingyou said:
"If it's inconvenient for you to take the kid with you, you can leave him at my place during the day."
Zhou Hong paused for a moment, and for the first time, he seemed a little embarrassed:
"Is this okay? Is this too intrusive?"
Fu Jingyou shook his head, turned around and pointed the way directly:
"Go into Qingta Hutong over there, walk to the end and you'll see an old locust tree. The house with a private entrance facing the tree is my home."
“That… that’s fine!”
Zhou Hong hesitated for a moment, then Fang Liluo nodded, "If it works, then Brother Xiao Fu will be in real trouble in the future."
Fu Jingyou waved his hand, glanced behind him at the little black boy who was secretly sticking his head out to look at him, laughed, and walked straight towards the market.
Before going home, Fu Jingyou went to the scrap yard again.
He was a regular customer, and Liu Xiaozhu smiled when he saw him:
"Brother Xiao Fu, are you here to look for wood again today?"
Fu Jingyou nodded generously and warmly:
"Really? The house is still short of a small table."
"Yes, I guessed you'd come back, so I sent a batch over the day before yesterday. I've kept all the good ones for you!"
Liu Xiaozhu led Fu Jingyou inside.
There is indeed a lot of good stuff this time.
Not only is it made of solid wood, the surface is also very smooth, and the varnish on many surfaces is intact.
Fu Jingyou bought it all.
The house is still empty at this stage. I will get the wood and nail a small table with a drawer for my wife first. I will put the rest aside for now and see what to do with it later.
"Xiaofu brother, do you want me to send it to you?"
"No, I'll just make one more trip and buy some other things on the way."
"Okay!"
Fu Jingyou made two trips to transport the wood back.
There were not enough nails at home, so he bought some locks along the way.
I also bought a small brass lock.
These two little brats are ignorant. Last time they tore my wife's letter of recommendation. We have to be careful to prevent them from tearing other books in the future.
Once the small desk drawer is finished, lock the textbooks that you will not be using in the future in the drawer.
He did what he thought. After returning home and having dinner, Fu Jingyou set up a bench in the yard and started working by stepping on the wooden planks.
Lu Miao was playing with the two children. It was a rare Saturday when his aunt could have some free time.
"I met a big brother when I worked in the ice factory before. He took good care of me."
While Fu Jingyou was busy, he mentioned Zhou Hong in passing.
Lu Miao hugged Erbao in the shade of the eaves.
There was a small stool in front of her, and Dabao was lying on her knees, teaching the two children to learn the Hundred Family Surnames in a serious manner.
Fu Jingyou spoke, she looked up and glanced at him, then quickly lowered her head to look at the child intently:
"Then what?"
Fu Jingyou scratched his head and told his wife everything he had said to Zhou Hong at the ice factory.
Lu Miao was stunned for a moment, without much objection, but said worriedly:
"Let's talk about it when it really comes."
