Chapter 578 Where Did All the Food Go?
There was no proper bed in the house, only kangs that were several meters long and wide.
Lu Yuanzheng originally stayed in the side room in the courtyard.
When He Hongjin came over, Lu Yuanzheng moved to Tang Mei's room.
There is nothing to be afraid of even though there are three children in between.
The original side room was cleaned up and allowed He Hongjin to live in.
Fu Jingyou was almost ten days away from home, and he was so impatient that he couldn't stop asking about how his family was and how his children were doing on the way.
Lu Yuanzheng answered all of them yes.
He Hongjin noticed Fu Jingyou's anxiety and couldn't help but think more about it.
If it weren't for his illness, the children would be reunited and living a comfortable life.
How can it be so troublesome?
He Hongjin felt heavy in his heart and said nothing along the way.
Fu Jingyou thought he was tired after sitting in the car for a long time, so he didn't bother him much.
The car started from the station and drove back slowly for about an hour before arriving behind Xi'er Hutong.
Fu Jingyou helped He Hongjin back to the yard first, while Lu Yuanzheng followed behind to unload things.
Lu Miao was listening to the noise at home. When he heard someone knocking on the gate, he guessed that someone had arrived.
He immediately stood up and waved to the children:
"Be polite and call me grandpa later, do you hear me?"
Shi An nodded seriously, followed by two little mouths shouting sweetly:
"I know, Mom~"
Shi An ran in front and pulled the bolt of the yard gate on tiptoe.
Dabao and Erbao followed behind Diandian.
The gate opened, revealing a figure.
The three children were about to say "Grandpa", but they changed their words at the last moment:
"uncle!"
"Ahh, Daddy, Daddy!"
Erbao looked for his father at home for several days.
As soon as he saw his father's face, the little guy stood on tiptoe and raised his two little hands impatiently:
“Dad, Dad!”
Dabao was almost there, but when he saw a familiar face behind him, he raised his hand and went up as well:
"grandfather!"
Seeing something was wrong, the boy was a little slow and confused:
"Grandpa, why is your face crooked?"
Fu Jingyou patted his son lightly on the head.
He bent down and picked up Erbao with his elbow, and with his other hand, he supported He Hongjin and continued walking towards the yard:
"Miaomiao, uncle is here."
He Hongjin stared at the chubby Dabao.
I wanted to hug the boy, but my physical condition prevented me from doing so.
Dabao ran beside He Hongjin's legs. Shi An shouted "Grandpa" loudly and also ran beside him.
"Uncle."
Lu Miao had already come out and was standing at the gate.
He Hongjin was speechless, so he raised his chin repeatedly to signal her.
After some trouble, they entered the house. Fu Jingyou helped He Hongjin sit down at the table, and Lu Miao poured water for He Hongjin.
The three children ran around and looked at their grandfather curiously, especially the eldest and second children.
The two little ones didn't understand why their grandfather's face changed, so they leaned against He Hongjin's legs and tilted their heads to look.
Lu Miao felt it was impolite and was about to intervene, but Fu Jingyou stopped him:
"That's it. Uncle likes a few little ones."
Lu Miao turned his eyes to look at him, and his palm-sized face looked even more pointed with his chin.
He looked even thinner than when he left a few days ago.
Just then, Tang Mei called out "relatives" and brought out some shredded pork noodles from the kitchen to treat He Hongjin.
Under the watchful eyes of his elders, Fu Jingyou quietly led Lu Miao into the room.
Can he be a good person?
Definitely not.
He entered the room, closed the door, held the person in his arms, sat on the edge of the kang, and began to caress, kiss and rub his body all over.
"Didn't you say you ate well? Where did all the food go? Have you lost weight again?"
"No, don't push it!"
He hadn't shaved for several days, and a light blue color had appeared on his chin.
Lu Miao's face and neck were rubbed by him, causing him to feel pain and itchiness.
Lu Miao gently pushed him and carefully moved from his legs to the kang, protecting her belly.
"I really eat well, really. I eat more these days than before. If you don't believe me, ask my aunt."
They hadn't seen each other for nearly ten days, and Fu Jingyou missed her so much that he almost died.
After finally coming back to see her, he just wanted to cling to her.
But when he saw her protecting her belly, Fu Jingyou frowned and felt a little unhappy in an instant.
Lu Miao noticed his mood change, put his hands on his arms, and shook them flatteringly:
"Brother You~!"
Fu Jingyou frowned at her and sighed helplessly:
"Let's talk about this tonight. You entertain Uncle. He's probably tired. After dinner, let him sit in the side room for a while. I'll go move some things and come back to get him some water to wash."
Lu Miao is a girl.
Tang Mei is also a woman.
He is definitely the most suitable person to take care of He Hongjin.
Fu Jingyou stood up while speaking.
Lu Miao followed closely behind:
"What are these?"
"You'll know in a moment."
Lu Miao had no choice but to nod.
When Fu Jingyou went out to move things, she stayed at home with her three children, and kept calling He Hongjin "grandfather" all the time.
He Hongjin spoke incoherently, so he touched the children's heads one by one.
Of course Shi An was not left behind either.
He Hongjin had adopted Fu Jingyou before, so he was not opposed to Shi An, this little cabbage.
On the contrary, there was a bit more pity.
I feel that it is really pitiful that the child has lost his parents at such a young age and his maternal family is unreliable.
As for Fu Jingyou, when he went to the backstage of the alley to move things, Lu Yuanzheng had been waiting for a while.
Fu Jingyou only remembered that his father-in-law was waiting for him after he left the house.
Lu Yuanzheng had already unloaded all the things. He stood there watching them while Fu Jingyou moved them back and forth.
The fifteen chickens in the two long cages are the most eye-catching.
When Fu Jingyou took it home, the chickens were clucking in the cage.
The neighbors in the alley all stuck their heads out to look.
Many people asked how much it would cost to buy so many chickens.
After hearing Fu Jingyou's explanation that he brought it from his hometown, the neighbors were extremely envious.
Someone quietly asked if it was for sale and wanted to buy it at a lower price.
Fu Jingyou confessed directly that his wife was pregnant and these were brought by the elders for her health.
A dozen chickens seemed like a lot, and he had taken great pains to bring them here. They were not enough for his wife and children to eat, so how could he sell them?
People in the alley praised Lu Miao for being lucky, saying that her husband treated her well and her in-laws cherished her, and she was willing to give away more than ten chickens.
Fu Jingyou smiled without saying anything, and quickly ran two more times to take the rest of the things home.
My father-in-law helped carry some of the things behind us before we could get them all into the yard.
Fu Jingyou couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
It took two of them so long. If he had done it alone, it would have been a life-threatening task to get it back from the station.
Tang Mei and Lu Miao in the courtyard were also surprised when they saw what they had brought back:
"You've moved your entire hometown here!"
Fu Jingyou pursed his lips, worried that He Hongjin would feel uneasy staying here, so he explained:
"I said I didn't want to take it, because it would be too much trouble to take it, but my uncle and aunt refused to agree, saying that it was a token of my appreciation, otherwise they wouldn't come with me."
He Hongjin nodded, pointed at Lu Miao and several other children and agreed:
"It's raised at home... Don't worry about eating it. It's for the benefit of the people."
