Chapter 81 Cracks

Xu Xiaoyou came over with a few strings of taro. She knew that her aunt and uncle were here, so she shared the taro with them.

Xu Shihua was a junior high school teacher, and Lu Hehuan was an elementary school teacher. The family had a lot of work points, and someone always sent something to Xu Shihua, so there was no shortage of food at home.

Xu Xiaoyou found that she always thought that the family was poor and hungry, but it was actually her grandmother who did it on purpose.

She brought the last two taro into the house and gave them to Lin Shu.

Lu Shaocai gave her a fierce look, he had a big opinion of Lin Shu.

These days when Lin Shu came, he looked more and more like a waste.

He was always worried that the brigade would let Lin Shu be the official accountant, not to mention replacing him as the brigade accountant, even the production team accountant was not acceptable.

If she became the production team accountant, then he would be useless and would suffer a lot?

So he stopped scolding the accountants of the production teams these days, and treated them kindly and tried to win them over, fearing that if he scolded too much, the brigade leader and the brigade secretary would replace Lu Changgong with Lin Shu.

In order to squeeze out Lin Shu, he deliberately treated Lu Changgong with extra affection, asked him about his health, asked him to drink more water, and asked if he had any questions that he could teach him, which made Lu Changgong feel uneasy and always felt that he had bad intentions.

Lu Changgong wanted to go back to the production team headquarters instead of working in the brigade.

But Lu Shaocai would not let him go, "It's spacious here, with many people and it's lively, and we can help each other. If you don't know how to do something, just ask me and I'll teach you."

Lin Shu found it funny and ignored him.

Xu Xiaoyou handed the taro to Lin Shu, "Auntie, have some taro."

Lin Shu smiled at her, stopped, took the taro and took Xu Xiaoyou outside to talk.

Lu Shaocai: "You are working, why eat taro? Why didn't you eat? If you come here to eat, your work points will be deducted."

Lu Changgong glanced at him, quickly lowered his head and clacked the abacus.

Outside, Lin Shu sat among the children and asked Xu Xiaoyou how he was doing recently.

Xu Xiaoyou lowered his head slightly, a little embarrassed, "Aunt, I caused my parents to quarrel."

Lin Shu: "Why quarrel?"

Panpan stopped listening to the comic book and came over to listen to her talk about the quarrel.

He is a gossiper.

Xu Xiaoyou told her.

Wasn't it Mid-Autumn Festival yesterday? Fang Dihua went to deliver food to the Xu family, and Xu Xiaoyou imitated her aunt and gave a return gift.

Xu's mother kept mumbling, unhappy, and wanted to pinch her.

Xu Xiaoyou ran to the door and shouted loudly: "Aunt Fang sent big pomegranates, big apples, big pears and dates, and we only gave a few taro, why did you hit me? You can't just take advantage, right?"

The neighbors heard it and naturally came out to ask.

Xu's mother was so angry that she kept nagging Lu Hehuan, "Why did your mother come here? Is she deliberately instigating discord between us?"

Lu Hehuan was not happy either, "My mother came to bring food, is there anything wrong? My mother didn't say anything, what is she instigating?"

Xu's mother said she didn't care.

Xu Shihua was unhappy when he came back and heard it. He felt that his wife and mother quarreled all day long, which gave him a headache.

In the afternoon, he went to work alone without Lu Hehuan.

Lu Hehuan was naturally unhappy at dinner time in the evening, and Xu Shihua was also unhappy.

Xu's mother was also nagging, Xu Yaoyao was making a fuss, and Xu Xiaoyou was busy running around.

It is still necessary to eat moon cakes, apples, pomegranates and other things to suit the occasion during the Mid-Autumn Festival.

Looking at the big and round moon in the sky, Lu Hehuan softened and took the initiative to show his good will to Xu Shihua.

She took the mooncake, broke it open and handed it to Xu Shihua, "Shihua, it's Mid-Autumn Festival, it's family reunion day, eat mooncakes."

Xu Shihua frowned

and said, "No." Lu Hehuan peeled a pomegranate for him, "This pomegranate is very sweet, eat it."

Xu Shihua's expression became even colder, and his voice was also cold: "No."

Lu Hehuan gave him hawthorn, date and apple mooncakes, but he refused to eat them. "Can you please stop bothering me?"

Lu Hehuan felt very aggrieved and stood there frozen, not knowing what to do.

Xu's mother was gloating over the misfortune, "You have no sense at all."

Xu Yaoyao: "Give it to me, I'll eat it!"

Xu Xiaoyou suddenly got angry, she slammed a duck pear on the table, cut it into several pieces with a knife, and forced a few pieces on Xu Shihua and Lu Hehuan, shouting: "You don't want to eat mooncakes, pomegranates, or apples, but you want to eat pears! Give them all to me!"

She threw the kitchen knife on the table.

Xu Yaoyao was frightened and burst into tears, and Xu's mother was also startled and raised her hand to hit her.

Xu Xiaoyou grabbed a piece of pear and stuffed it into her mouth, "Eat it quickly! The pears my grandma sent are so sweet!"

Xu Xiaoyou was happy to share the pears, but she seemed to hear Xu Shihua and Lu Hehuan quarreling at night.

Listening to Xu Shihua's low voice complaining, "What does your mother mean? She comes here every now and then to show off her power, right? She beats me up? She humiliates me? And your sister-in-law? Is our family short of vegetables? What's the meaning of coming here all day to look for thieves?"

He scolded Lu Hehuan, and she didn't defend herself. He scolded his mother and sister-in-law, and Lu Hehuan was unhappy and argued with him.

Lu Hehuan: "We only have a small vegetable garden at home, and there are not enough vegetables to eat. My mother and sister-in-law are doing this for you and Yaoyao? They want you to eat better, and you still blame them?"

Later, their voices became smaller and smaller, and Xu Xiaoyou could no longer hear them.

She put the chopping board and knife next to her when she went to bed at night. This was the idea of ​​her sister-in-law, so that she could scare her grandmother from pinching her in the middle of the night.

She never thought about what she was going to do, but after doing this, her stepmother really stopped pinching her at night.

She thought her aunt was smart and had ways of doing things. Tiantian and Panpan were like her aunt, and she wanted to learn from her. She

felt that she was the one who caused the quarrel between her father and stepmother, and she felt a little guilty. She wanted to ask her aunt what to do.

Lin Shu whispered, "They didn't quarrel because of you."

Xu Xiaoyou: "Isn't it me? I lost my temper. I really can't stand my father's weird temper. He doesn't want to eat this or that."

She was mainly fed up with Xu Shihua saying that Grandma Fang and her aunt were not good.

Lin Shu: "No, sometimes adult matters are more complicated, and it's not about pomegranate mooncakes."

It's about the deep-seated tug of war and face and dignity.

She and Fang Dihua often send vegetables to the Xu family. On the surface, they care about Lu Hehuan and Xiaoyou, and outsiders think they are good people. But in fact, she and Fang Dihua know that their sending things to the Xu family is different from the Lin family sending things to the Lu family. They go to criticize Xu's mother and put pressure on Xu Shihua.

From the perspective of Xu Shihua and Xu's mother, they must be angry. They dare not get angry with her and Fang Dihua, so they lose their temper with Lu Hehuan.

Lin Shu felt that in the original book, Xu Shihua treated Lu Hehuan so badly, brainwashing, cold violence, verbal humiliation, cheating, etc., but Lu Hehuan was not crazy, which showed that Lu Hehuan was still quite slow. So what they did to the Xu family, it would not be a big deal for Xu Shihua to lose his temper with her.

In the original plot, Xu Shihua mainly used cold violence, sarcasm and the like to treat her, and rarely showed the face of a petty bourgeois chicken thief.

So even if he didn't love her, she would think he was a bright and clear man.

She put an 8,000-meter-thick filter on him.

But no matter how deep the filter is, it will be destroyed by the man's own evil.

The halo she gave him was based on her belief that he was a person who transcended the secular world.

She was not afraid of him cheating or being dissolute, because in her opinion, many artists were dissolute. She was not even afraid of him using cold violence against her or beating her, because she thought that was because he cared about her and loved her that he got angry with her.

She was afraid that he was philistine and was as calculative as an ordinary man, and that under his handsome appearance, he hid a filthy and cunning soul.

Once Xu Shihua showed her a particularly philistine and secular side, his image in her heart would collapse.

She projected some needs on him, and if he violated these needs, it would break her fantasy.

Lin Shu felt that although Lu Hehuan was obsessed with love, she was not to the extent that she could support Xu Shihua by stepping on her parents and relatives. Her current logic was that her mother and sister-in-law were clearly good to the Xu family, so why did Xu Shihua still blame them?

If she was really hopelessly obsessed with love, she would come back to blame her mother and sister-in-law as soon as Xu Shihua complained.

Xu Xiaoyou was not an ordinary child, so Lin Shu explained to her in detail why Xu's mother and Xu Shihua were angry.

Xu Xiaoyou: "Grandma Fang and my aunt went to bring us food, and grandma and dad were unhappy. They thought you were deliberately taking advantage of them? No wonder my grandma doesn't dare to not give meals to me and mom now. Mom and I ate too much, and my grandma was unhappy, so she nagged my dad, and my dad resented Grandma Fang and my aunt? And then he took it out on my mom?"

Lin Shu smiled, "Almost. The most important thing is that you are sensible, and your grandma doesn't dare to hit you casually."

Xu Xiaoyou: "Then I know."

I have to spread the good of my Grandma Fang and my aunt, the good of my stepmother, and the good of my Grandma Lu to the neighbors.

If it weren't for my Grandma Lu, my brother's legs would be crippled!

Xu Xiaoyou learned from the experience and whispered to Tiantian, Panpan and other children.

Huahua, Huzi, Honghong and others expressed their willingness to help.

Isn't it just to tell the family that Tiantian and Panpan's aunt is a good stepmother?

They will!

At noon, Lin Shu prepared the meal and Fang Dihua came back to bring it.

Tiantian and Panpan pestered Fang Dihua to ask about daddy's return.

Tiantian: "Grandma, my dad came back last night, why didn't you wake us and grandpa up? My grandpa was asleep and I don't know."

Panpan: "Grandma, my dad kissed my feet, where did he kiss you? The palm of the hand, the sole of the foot, the mouth or the forehead?"

Fang Dihua & Lin Shu: "..."

Fang Dihua immediately knew that Lin Shu was coaxing them. She glanced at her and Lin Shu gave her a tacit look.

Fang Dihua whispered, "He came back quietly last night and didn't even have time to talk to me. He kissed you and left."

She knew the two children. If she said that she had talked to their father, they would ask endless questions. The two children were smart and would easily reveal their true intentions.

Sure enough, Dad came back quietly, was very busy and had no time, didn't even wake up Grandpa, didn't talk to Grandma, and just kissed them. These restrictions combined to satisfy the two children's little thoughts.

Ah, Dad is back and kissed us. He didn't even have time to talk to Grandma.

Hehe, Dad loves us so much.

Panpan immediately kissed Tiantian's left palm again.

Tiantian: "Don't be too hard, you'll kiss away all the kisses from Daddy."

Panpan raised his legs, "Here, here."

Fang Dihua glanced at Lin Shu, this is your fault, you should clean it up.

Lin Shu: "I haven't finished eating the meat that my sister brought back yesterday, I made it at noon, let's eat meat at noon."

As a result, the meat didn't even attract the children's attention.

They still have to wait until the evening to show it to Grandpa.

In the blink of an eye, it was the end of August. Because of Lin Shu's help, the work points of the production team and the brigade were calculated on time this year, and the accounts were clear, so the payment of public grain and the distribution of food were earlier than in previous years.

This time no one complained, because the accounts were calculated clearly, not a penny was wrong.

Lin Shu earned work points and food, and was praised by the brigade cadres. She was deeply grateful to the members, and compared Lu Shaocai to scum, which made him so angry that his nose was crooked more than Lu Ersao's.

So far, sorghum, corn, soybeans, millet, and peanuts have basically been harvested and handed over to the public grain.

But there are still a lot of sweet potatoes. We have to go to the fields to directly rub the sweet potatoes into sweet potato slices, put them on the ground to let the autumn wind blow, and dry them into sweet potato slices.

This is the main food for the members.

This year, because there is a tractor to help, the sweet potato field can be plowed with an agricultural machine, the sweet potatoes can be plowed out, and then rubbed into slices, which saves a lot of effort.

Therefore, Lu Dasao and others were praised and praised by the members every day, and they wanted to praise them to the fullest and plow more acres of land for their production team.

One day, Lin Shu suddenly received a call from her second sister.

The call was made to the commune, and Zhou Weimin came to deliver a message.

The second sister said that her second brother-in-law went to Qizhou for technical training, and she had to have a small operation, and asked Lin Shu if she could go over to take care of her for two days.

Of course Lin Shu could go!

She immediately went to the commune to call her second sister.

Lin Xia was very happy to receive the call from Sanmei. If she had never dared to trouble Sanmei before, after all, Sanmei's character couldn't bear any trouble. The eldest sister and mother were both busy, and she was too embarrassed to bother her, so she could only do it if something happened. Carry it yourself.

Now that Sanmei gave her a feeling that she could rely on her, she called Lin Shu.

Lin Xia: "After taking medicine for a period of time, the doctor said it was about the same, but the blockage problem required surgery. I thought it would be better not to delay it, but to solve it as soon as possible."

She thought that if she could get cured quickly, she could have a baby sooner, but the result was that the money Lisheng was not very keen and insisted on going to Qizhou to study.

Lin Xia felt that it was just a training and could not be more important than giving birth to a baby.

Ren Jiang, the factory director, said that it was of little use and that technical and management capabilities had to be improved on the job.

Qian Lisheng insisted on going, saying that he could plate gold, which would help him get promoted to workshop manager.

Lin Xia felt that he wanted to compete with Tong Guoqiang, because Tong Guoqiang was keen on training.

Originally, the mother-in-law could take care of the children, but the second son's wife was pregnant again, and said that the pregnancy was not good. It's not good to force mother-in-law to serve.

Mother-in-law said that she could take care of both sides and would not let Lin Xia down, but Lin Xia felt that it was not enough.

So she called Lin Shu to ask.

Seeing that Lin Shu was happy to come, Lin Xia was also happy, "We are sisters and can rely on each other."

Lin Shu said, "Of course, sister, don't worry, no matter what happens, just come to me."

Lin Xia I really want Lin Shu to bring the two children with her. She likes children, especially Tiantian and Panpan. Besides, the elderly always say that children should be raised by one person. Tiantian and Panpan will definitely bring her healthy and lovely children. Baby.

But Lin Shu was tired enough to come and take care of her, and she was afraid that she couldn't take care of the child with her, so Lin Xia didn't mention it. After

hanging up the phone, Lin Shu went home to discuss it with her parents-in-law.

Fang Dihua and Lu Laodi naturally had no objection, and their daughter-in-law Isn't it my duty to accompany my sister in bed?

Tiantian and Panpan immediately said they would go. Tiantian: " Aunt

is so kind to us, I want to go and take care of her."

Panpan: "Yes, we will all go."

They pestered Lin Shu and insisted on going.

If they go, what if they can see their father?

They bring their father's photo with them, so they can recognize him at a glance if they see him on the road.

Lin Shu has always been soft-hearted towards the two children, and almost always agrees to their requests. She thinks that they are so well-behaved, and they will not be afraid if they go. It's not worth it to make trouble for yourself, maybe it can really help.

She agreed, and the two children smiled with big eyes.

Fang Dihua: "It's tiring for you to stay with the patient, can you handle it with two children?"

She was afraid that Lin Shu would be too tired.

Lin Shu smiled and said, "Tiantian and Panpan don't need anyone to take care of them. Look at them at home, where do they need anyone to take care of them? They still take care of others."

The two children nodded vigorously and said to each other, "We will give Mother helped."

"Don't worry, we will take good care of mother and second aunt."

As if they were the main force in taking care of the patients.

Fang Dihua had no objection.

Father Lu also agreed, after all, the child was really precious to the second aunt. Children, it's good for them.

The family all agreed, but the brigade was a little reluctant. Although they paid a little more work points and food, how much help did Lin Shu have

? That dog Lu Shaocai is really useless.

However, the small operation accompanied the bed top. It will take seven to ten days to come back, it won’t take long.

Lin Shu was going to accompany her second sister in bed, and Fang Dihua packed 200 eggs, which shocked Lin Shu.

The autumn harvest was intense and tiring. Many people had worse back and leg pains, and they all went to ask Father Lu for help. Acupuncture and cupping.

The eggs and duck eggs at home suddenly became more and more, and I couldn't finish them all.

"Mom, just take 30 or 50. I can't carry more."

Fang Dihua: It's okay, just put it on the bus and pay for one more ticket. When we get there, we can just find a rickshaw to take us to my second aunt's house. "

After going to the city, Fang Dihua is no longer the same as before. She is bold and unrestrained in everything she does.

What's the point of being afraid of not being able to lift it?

Don't we have a tricycle? It

's just a matter of spending a few cents!

We are not short of money!

There are many people in my family who make money.

Lin Shu couldn't persuade her. The old lady was very stubborn this time. She must give the child the most warmth and care. Fang Dihua looked down on Lin Xia's mother -in-law

for not serving her.

Surgery, you just ignore it?
