Xu Zhaodi felt a little guilty, and after thinking for a while, she said, "Sister, how about I leave two for you as a souvenir?"
The woman didn't say anything. The old lady said, "Take them all away. Four of them fell down before. It's a pity."
Old items still have to be destined for the right person. If it suits your taste, you may be able to use it for a few more years if you take it away."
The woman also said: "Yes, if you like it, keep it."
Xu Zhaodi smiled, said hello, and walked up the mountain.
She was smiling in her heart, not knowing whether the bowl was valuable or not. She always felt that this piece of junk must be an old thing. She could take it home and put it aside, and after a few years, she would be able to make some money.
After all this trouble, by the time Xu Zhaodi found her basket, it was already past lunchtime. She was so hungry that she was almost starving to death.
Zhao Erdan looked at the sun above his head. The time for the shift change was about to come. Why hadn’t Captain Chen’s wife come back yet?
Another young comrade, Zhang Xiwa, saw Zhao Erdan's eyes occasionally glancing up the hillside, and asked him, "Why are you always looking over there? What are you looking at?"
"Sister-in-law has been up the mountain for so long, why hasn't she come back yet? Is there anything wrong?"
Zhang Xiwa looked up the hillside and saw Xu Zhaodi carrying a basket and walking slowly towards the gate.
"She's back now, why do you care about her so much?"
"She looks like my sister, let me see what's wrong?"
"Be careful or your sister will find out and punish you."
A trace of sadness flashed across Zhao Erdan's eyes.
His sister will never come back.
When Xu Zhaodi was about to reach the door, Zhao Erdan ran over and offered to help her. This time Xu Zhaodi didn't let him help her carry the basket.
"Sister-in-law, let me help you."
"Comrade Erdan, please return to your post immediately. It's a small task for me, but the work is big. I'm not tired."
As Xu Zhaodi spoke, she strode to the table, signed, said goodbye, and left with the basket.
Zhao Erdan scratched his ear in confusion. Why didn’t his sister-in-law let him help today?
Zhang Xiwa said: "Sister-in-law is right, you should stay responsible for your post."
As the two were talking, two comrades came over to take over their shifts. They saluted each other and successfully handed over the shift.
As soon as Xu Zhaodi entered the door, she quickly went to the kitchen to make herself a bowl of malted milk. Chen Jianguo rarely touched the snacks that Jiang Wan brought more than 20 days ago. They were not spoiled yet. She didn't care whether they had expired or not and couldn't help but eat two pieces.
After she recovered, she boiled a potato and an egg, blanched the bamboo shoots, and made herself a cold dish. Then she sat down slowly to enjoy the food.
Chen Jianguo had thought that he could sit down and have lunch with his wife at noon, but it turned out that she was on holiday.
The three grown men ordered their food and sat together to eat. Jiang Dahai couldn't hide the smile on his face.
Zhang Qingdong: "Old Jiang, did you eat anything unclean this morning?"
Jiang Dahai smiled and asked, "What's wrong?"
"What's wrong? You were secretly happy during the meeting. What's the matter?"
Chen Jianguo also found out about it. He must have had an affair with his wife. What's there to ask?
Jiang Dahai looked around and whispered, "There is something wrong, but you two wouldn't understand even if I told you."
Hey, we are all adult men, what's there to not understand?
Chen Jianguo was too lazy to pay attention to his riddle, but Zhang Qingdong became interested when he heard it.
"Why don't you tell us what happened, so that we can share in the joy."
Jiang Dahai seemed to be keeping someone in suspense and smiled even more proudly.
"Well, it's not that I don't want you to share in my happiness, it's that you simply can't share in it.
Let me tell you, my wife is pregnant again.
I'm a father again. Can you understand how excited I am?"
Zhang Qingdong thought it was something else. He was not interested in children and said, "I thought it was something else. To be honest, I haven't even thought about getting married yet, let alone having children."
Jiang Dahai said: "You're right, everyone knows that Teacher Jiang came here for you.
I tell you, you are not good at playing two-timing.
Teacher Ren Jiang is pretty and well-educated, but you are a rough man, and you know what's going on."
Zhang Qingdong chuckled. Jiang Dahai's eyes fell on Chen Jianguo. He nudged him with his elbow and said, "Are you two still sleeping in separate beds?"
Chen Jianguo felt guilty, but didn't want to lose face in front of his brothers, so he said, "Who said that? Which eye did you see it with? You're talking nonsense, I can't even stop you from eating."
Jiang Dahai was choked.
Hey, this brat, he is also a bad guy.
The angrier he gets, the more it shows that he is guilty.
Jiang Dahai chuckled twice, and the three of them continued to eat.
Chen Jianguo felt depressed. Not only did he get married later than Lao Jiang, but now that Lao Jiang has a second child, they still sleep separately.
It's not a solution to continue like this.
Jiang Dahai was just showing off in front of him on purpose.
When walking back after the meeting in the afternoon, Chen Jianguo was too lazy to drive and let Jiang Dahai drive.
Xu Zhaodi hung the bamboo shoots on the balcony to dry and took time to do some laundry in the afternoon.
She threw the clothes into the basin, and thinking that Chen Jianguo had been busy attending meetings these two days and had not washed his own clothes, she went into his room and took the clothes he had changed out of from the bedside.
He seems to have mysophobia and always folds his clothes neatly.
She turned out all the pockets of the clothes and found that they were clean, so she felt at ease to wash them.
After washing the clothes, she was afraid that they would not dry in one day, so she cleaned the basket, tied a rope to the balcony to hang the basket, hung the washed clothes in the basket, pressed two clean bricks on top, and turned it hard, and it became the dehydrator of the washing machine.
Looking at the scene in front of her, she even laughed herself.
It turns out that the advancement of technology lies in human laziness.
Clothes are hung out to dry on the balcony, and the air is filled with the faint scent of laundry.
After finishing the work in my hands, I don’t know why, my stomach was rumbling all afternoon.
She didn't take it seriously, thinking that she hadn't eaten tortillas for a few days and was still a little craving for them.
Xu Zhaodi cooked millet porridge, fried shredded potatoes, made cold bamboo shoots, and baked corn tortillas and waited for Chen Jianguo to come back for dinner.
When Xu Zhaodi heard the sound of a car coming from downstairs, she knew he was back.
Chen Jianguo got out of the car and looked up to see his clothes hanging on the balcony. A warm feeling surged through his body like a flood.
Jiang Dahai followed Chen Jianguo's gaze and looked at him, teasing him: "Oh, your wife even knows to wash your clothes. It seems that you two have a really good relationship."
"roll……"
Chen Jianguo didn't bother to pay attention to him and strode into the building. Zhang Qingdong beside him kept laughing.
Jiang Dahai said: "What are you laughing at? They have someone to wash their clothes, I have someone to give birth to my children, what about you?
Who is willing to do something for you?
Still smiling."
Zhang Qingdong: …
Who did I offend?
