Chapter 695: Don’t endure hardship without suffering
How much does it cost to buy an electric fan?
Frugality should be appropriate. It's not like you can't make money, so why do you have to endure hardship?
Lu Miao discussed with Lu Yuanzheng at the dinner table.
Ask him to take some time to go and get the electric fan from Chongwenmen.
Back in his room to rest at night, Lu Miao handed the red envelope that Mei Zi had handed to him during the day to Fu Jingyou, and also discussed with Fu Jingyou and made a statement:
She makes the decisions about family matters, so you have to listen to her.
You should buy an electric fan.
In addition to the electric fan, Lu Miao also needs a sewing machine.
"I'm out of confinement now, so it's fine for me to use a sewing machine. If you don't buy me one, I'll have to squint my eyes and thread the needle by hand, which will hurt my neck and eyes even more."
Now that she said that, what else could Fu Jingyou say?
He nodded and promised:
"Okay, buy it, buy it."
Lu Miao was happy and rewarded him with a kiss.
She succeeded in making the man's eyes full of tenderness, and he pressed her down and kissed her several more times.
After the commotion, Lu Miao broke out in a thin sweat again. She pushed Fu Jingyou away, not allowing him to stick to her any further.
Fu Jingyou pulled the pillow over and lay down, then pulled her to lie on his chest, put one hand around her waist to prevent her from running away, and used the other hand to fan her with a palm-leaf fan.
Lu Miao narrowed his eyes, feeling extremely comfortable, and lay on his chest like a lazy cat, not running anymore.
Her fingertips, as slender and delicate as magnolia buds, drew circles on his chest.
Taking the opportunity to bring up the night school thing I had told Mei Zi during the day, I said:
"Meizi is very honest and kind-hearted. She does whatever we ask her to do. She has helped us a lot. I thought I might as well give her some substantial help. It would be a good idea to return the favor."
Fu Jingyou closed his eyes and hummed a low "hmm". His palm passed through her thin coat and gently stroked her smooth back:
"No problem, I'll do as you say... I'll take care of things at home tomorrow and then I'll go find out about the night school."
"When I'm free tomorrow, I'll ask Liu Wenpei about it."
Lu Miao rested his head on his chest and pecked his chin, thinking:
"She and Ling Yuan must have already asked."
"Well, turn off the lights and go to bed."
"good."
Lu Miao got up, stretched out his arm and pulled the light cord.
The room darkened, and she rested her head back on Fu Jingyou's chest and shoulder:
"Put a pillow on the edge of the kang over there, be careful Yangyang doesn't roll down."
The baby was just one month old and couldn’t even turn over, let alone roll over.
But it's always good to be careful.
Fu Jingyou responded softly and threw a pillow over.
He loves and cares for all the children in the family.
But the second child is obviously different from the first and second children.
Fu Jingyou's attitude towards his youngest son is much more relaxed and casual.
Lu Miao was breastfed in the early stages, and the mother-child relationship had already been established.
So she treated Yangyang and other children in the family equally and impartially.
Men are not as thoughtful as women.
When it comes to taking care of the child, as long as there are no major problems, Lu Miao will not argue with the child's father.
The palm-leaf fan created a gentle breeze, and Lu Miao closed his eyes, feeling drowsy.
When her consciousness was hazy, she always felt that there was something she hadn't said.
After thinking for a long time, she finally remembered. She raised her head in a daze, her tongue twisted in her throat due to sleepiness.
"Brother You, there's something I didn't tell you just now."
"What's the matter? If it's not important, we can talk about it tomorrow. Go to bed first."
"Well, I want to tell you now."
Lu Miao shook his head, rested his head on his arm and whispered:
"I borrowed money from Dad... I didn't tell you before because I was afraid you would feel pressured."
Fu Jingyou paused for a moment, and without asking her what she wanted to borrow the money for, he just asked her how much she borrowed.
"Two thousand."
Lu Miao told him everything frankly:
“I invested in gold…”
Fu Jingyou hummed a low "hmm" and understood what was going on.
"I know about this. I'll return the money to Dad when I make some money. Go to bed first."
Fu Jingyou patted her.
"Um……"
In his consciousness, Lu Miao nodded.
But in fact she was very sleepy.
After responding to that sound in an inaudible voice, his head felt heavy and he fell into a deep sleep.
Fu Jingyou half-stood up, pulled a small blanket and put it around her waist, then lay down and hugged her, continuing to gently fan her with a palm-leaf fan.
The moonlight flows gently, and crickets jump and climb outside the window.
After dawn, the sky in the east turned pale.
When the first ray of morning light breaks through the clouds and shines over the city, smoke from cooking fires rises from the alleys, and a new and lively day begins.
Fu Jingyou quickly met his wife's needs and bought a brand new electric fan and sewing machine.
Tang Mei kept nagging about this, but Lu Miao was like a dead pig that was not afraid of boiling water.
No matter what Ren Tangmei said, it was useless after she made her decision.
Seeing that she was so shameless, Tang Mei was angry for a while and then ignored her.
At this point, Lu Miaoru was as proud as if he had won a battle.
Fu Jingyou laughed when he saw this, shook his head and went out to find Ling Yuan and his wife to ask about night school.
Evening school courses are also divided into stages.
Some are specifically aimed at literacy, while others are specifically aimed at the college entrance examination.
Based on Mei Zi's situation, Fu Jingyou inquired about the former.
There is no tuition fee for night school literacy courses, but if you go to class, you have to share the electricity bill of 20 cents every month.
Another thing is the thirty cents fee for books.
These fifty cents must be handed in. As for the cost of other pens and notebooks, it depends on your personal circumstances and you can go to the supply and marketing cooperative or department store to buy them.
It's quite suitable.
Mei Zi was also relieved when she heard the news.
At first I thought the tuition fee would be five, six, seven or eight yuan.
If that's the case, she really can't bear to...
Apart from the textbook fee, Mei Zi only spent 20 cents a month, which was completely affordable. She quickly decided to attend this night school literacy class.
Lu Miao didn't mention money again.
Everyone in the house, big and small, is a permanent resident of the school, so there is never a shortage of pens and notebooks.
Lu Miao bought some pencils and notebooks for Mei Zi to use so that she didn't have to buy them again.
Mei Zi did not refuse and accepted the things, silently keeping in mind all the kindness her sister-in-law had shown her.
…
Fu Jingyou is destined to be very busy this summer vacation.
Not only the internship work at the electromechanical factory needs to continue.
He wanted to make more trips to Guangzhou during the school holidays.
Besides, there is another more important thing waiting for him to do.
That is the children’s household registration.
After taking care of the trivial matters at home, Fu Jingyou found the birth certificates of his three children, went to the hospital and prescribed some warming and nourishing Chinese medicine for He Hongjin according to the previous prescriptions.
After returning home, Lu Miao simply packed the package for him.
Without further delay, he waved goodbye to his wife and children, packed his bag and set out on his journey back south.
I didn't say hello in advance when I went back this time.
So when I got home two days later, I saw He Hongjin taking a nap on a chair in the main hall. I woke up to the sound of footsteps and thought I was still dreaming.
He Hongjin dozed off with his mouth open. He shook the palm-leaf fan in a daze, then patted his legs with the fan.
Get rid of those annoying flies that are scratching around.
