Chapter 141
The eldest sister was wearing a blue cotton jacket and her hair was braided into two braids. Her eyes kept looking at Bai Xiuxiu's face.
Bai Xiuxiu smiled at her and greeted her warmly: "Yes, we just moved here today. My last name is Bai and my husband's last name is Wang. What's your name, big sister?"
"Me? I'm the second daughter-in-law of the old Lin family next door. My name is Ning Meimei, you can just call me Sister Ning. Let me tell you, a few days ago, my mother-in-law's relatives also came to see this house. They were driven out by the old lady in this yard.
My mother-in-law came home and cursed angrily for two days.
I have always been curious about who buys the house.”
Ning Meimei looked at Bai Xiuxiu and thought to herself, among other things, how pretty this young wife was.
In the room, Wang Qinghe put his things away and came out.
When Ning Meimei saw him, her eyes almost popped out.
How come this guy is so handsome?
"Xiu Xiu, it's cold outside, go inside. I'll drive the ox cart into the yard." Wang Qinghe looked at his wife's face which was a little red from the cold, and wanted to let her go inside out of pity.
"No need. The ox cart will be sent back soon. It's very troublesome to rush into the yard. Let's move quickly. There are not many things to begin with. Mingming and Yueyue, you two follow dad into the house first." Bai Xiu Xiu handed the two children to him.
Seeing that she was unwilling to enter the house, Wang Qinghe simply moved a few more things in one go.
Several bags were carried on shoulders.
How come this person has so much strength?
"Is this your man?" Ning Meimei asked after everyone entered the house.
Bai Xiuxiu nodded: "Yes."
"You two are so good-looking. Now I know why old lady Qigu sold the house to you. The old lady just likes good-looking people." Ning Meimei sighed.
"Second son's wife, mother wants you to go back and cook. It's your turn to cook today, so don't delay the men in our family from coming back for lunch." From the next yard, a woman with a stern face and about the same age as Ning Meimei came out.
She looked tired, and her eyes were critical of everyone she looked at. Her dull hair was cut short.
When he saw Bai Xiu Xiu with Ning Mei Mei, he became even more picky.
There was a hint of disdain in her eyes: "Don't chat with anyone all day long, go back quickly. I won't help you with the work, I'd rather make clothes for my son if I have the time."
After saying that, he returned to the yard.
"I'm sorry, my sister-in-law is a bit rigid. Well, I'll go back first and come to play with you another day." Ning Meimei said and hurried back to the yard.
In just a few minutes, Bai Xiu Xiu had a general impression of the two daughters-in-law she saw in the yard next door.
Ning Meimei is a cheerful and talkative person, while her sister-in-law seems a little difficult to get along with.
Wang Qinghe quickly moved all the things into the house.
Just after they finished moving, the two guys who were helping them move the furniture came over with another ox cart.
"Brother Wang, sister-in-law, let us help you move in. We will also drive an ox cart for you later." The two young men followed Xiao Zhang to work. Xiao Zhang had told them early in the morning to rush to do everything.
With two more people helping, everything in the house was moved in quickly.
"Xiu Xiu, let's go send the ox cart back to the village." Wang Qinghe looked at Bai Xiu Xiu worriedly.
"Hurry up, I'm not a child, why should I be afraid of being alone at home? When you come back later, let's go to the state-owned hotel for a meal." Bai Xiu Xiu knew that he was worried that something might happen to her when she was alone at home.
"Then I'll go first. I'll do the housework when I come back. You should have a good rest." Wang Qinghe looked back every few steps and gave repeated instructions before leaving.
After everyone left, Bai Xiu Xiu put away the small items in the house.
Inside the house, both rooms were not dirty. Bai Xiu Xiu took the two children to the east room.
On the kang in the east room, her and Wang Qinghe's cabinet had been placed on the east side of the kang, tightly wrapped with a quilt and not yet opened.
The table was also placed in the innermost corner of the house. Bai Xiuxiu took out cups and other things that might not fall from the space, washed them carefully, and then placed them on the table.
"Mom, are we going to live here in the future?" Yueyue grabbed the corner of Bai Xiuxiu's clothes, her big eyes full of curiosity about this house.
Bai Xiuxiu was so touched by her daughter's eyes that she picked her up and kissed her a few times before letting her go. Her good mood about moving also spread: "Yes, from now on, this whole house and the yard will belong to us.
This is Mom and Dad’s room. Mom will take you to see your room later.”
"Okay." Yueyue looked expectant.
Mingming also tugged at Bai Xiuxiu's clothes. Bai Xiuxiu looked at her son and picked him up with a little confusion: "What's wrong with Mingming?"
"Mom, can my sister and I play in the yard?" His face was full of desire. Recently, Mom didn't allow them to play in the yard at home.
Bai Xiu Xiu suddenly felt even more distressed for her two babies.
"Sure, as long as you don't go out with strangers. This is our own home, you can play freely in the yard."
With Bai Xiu Xiu's consent, the two children ran out directly.
Seeing this, Bai Xiu Xiu quickly closed the door before they moved in, so that the two children would not play crazy and run out again.
Since the two children were not in the room, it was more convenient for Bai Xiuxiu to pack up some small items.
When Wang Qinghe came back, Bai Xiuxiu had almost put all the small items in the house in order.
As soon as he entered the house, he saw his wife was still busy, so he quickly took over the work: "Didn't we agree that you can do it when I come back? You've been busy with her these past two days, and you're exhausted."
Wang Qinghe felt extremely distressed.
Tired? Bai Xiuxiu thought about the past few days and couldn't think of what kind of heavy work she had done.
However, why didn’t the two guys who helped them come over?
"Why didn't the two guys Xiao Zhang found for us come back with us? If they help us with work, we should at least treat them to a meal." Bai Xiu Xiu wondered.
"Xiao Zhang called the people away, saying that he had something urgent to do, so I asked Xiao Zhang to bring two red envelopes to them. Only if Xiao Zhang gave them the red envelopes would they accept them. If we had given them the red envelopes, they would still have to worry about whether Xiao Zhang would give them the red envelopes.
Xiao Zhang will come over in the evening." Wang Qinghe pulled Bai Xiuxiu to sit down.
Don't let her work with you.
Bai Xiuxiu felt relieved after hearing this. She looked at her husband busying himself and smiled, "What are we having for dinner? I just checked the stove and it's fine."
"What do you want to eat? I'll make it." Wang Qinghe glanced at his wife and felt that his dream seemed to have come true.
Have a house of their own, a job that can support her, and have her and the children by their side.
Later he went out to work and she waited for him to come back home.
Next, he just needs to help Xiuxiu hide the matter of the bracelet and deal with those people who might appear in the provincial capital.
He could live happily with Xiuxiu for the rest of his life.
