Yeah, who would have thought that it would be worn like this.
"Thank goodness you prepared so many things!"
Before going to bed, Qin Jianye heard this and smiled with satisfaction.
The morning sun shone through the windowsill, and Qin Jianye woke up from his sleep and wiped the sweat from his forehead.
He turned around to look at his wife and daughter, and seeing that they were still sleeping soundly, he got up quietly and went back to Lao Qin's house in the morning light to report the news.
The old lady was furious when she found out that the family had gone out last night. She thought, why can't I take a bath at home instead of going to someone else's house?
Qin Jianye comforted her: "It would be a shame if you didn't live in it. It's such a big house, it would be a shame to leave it empty!"
They are really mother and son. When the old lady heard this, her eyes lit up.
Without saying anything, he asked Qin Jianye to come back and handed him a bowl of porridge: "Okay, you can stay for two more days if you want!"
Qin Jianye finished drinking and went back to the house to remove the cloth outside the cotton quilt.
He wrapped himself up and went out: "Mom, there is a lot of firewood over there. I will go over there to wash and come back when I am done."
"What about the meal? Come back for it?"
"No, I found a few sweet potatoes in the Wei family's kitchen last night. Just fill them up. I'll leave the food at home to my two brothers."
Qin Jianye said this, looked around, and seeing that there was no one around, he stuffed a palm-sized roasted sweet potato into the old lady's hand.
The soft touch made the old lady subconsciously hide the sweet potato in her arms. Unexpectedly, she got burned.
Even so, she couldn't bear to take it out. Even through her cotton-padded jacket, she could smell the sweet sweet potato. She couldn't help but swallow.
He smiled and said, "Mom, you know, my old son loves me!"
Qin Jianye said nothing, waved his hand and left.
The morning breeze blew through his hair, and Qin Jianye hummed a little song proudly: "Today is a good day..."
I didn't meet anyone along the way and arrived at the Wei family courtyard.
Qin Jianye opened the door and went in, throwing the quilt cover into the basin. When he entered the room, he saw that his wife and daughter were still asleep.
They were not idle either, lighting a fire to boil water. After boiling two pots of hot water, Chen Yunwei and Qin Siyue finally got up and drowsily washed their faces and brushed their teeth.
Then the family sat on small benches and started their first full meal after the journey.
On the table were steamed fish and garlic crispy chicken that were taken out of the space and ordered from a five-star hotel.
Although it is a meat dish, it does not contain much fat and is full of protein, which is suitable for their current stomachs.
There is also a vegetarian dish, stir-fried mushrooms, which is very light but tastes good.
Qin Jianye brought out the rice cooker and served rice to the group. The family of three ate and chatted in a harmonious atmosphere.
After eating and drinking, Qin Siyue washed dishes in the kitchen, Qin Jianye washed clothes and quilt covers in the yard, and Chen Yunwei was in the house, altering clothes for the three of them.
Qin Siyue was the fastest and went back to help Chen Yunwei after finishing his work. He also praised her: "Mom, with your skills, it would be a shame if you didn't become a tailor!"
Chen Yun chuckled softly: "It's okay in the future. Nowadays, every woman in every household knows how to tailor clothes. What I do is nothing!"
Qin Siyue was horrified: "Even if I don't know how to do it, I still want to learn it!"
"That depends on what kind of partner you're looking for."
Chen Yun skillfully threaded the needle without even looking up. "Find someone who has a job. If you need anything, you can go to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy it. Find someone who works in the countryside farming. Besides making clothes, you also have to raise chickens and pigs."
Qin Siyue shuddered and pouted: "Mom, you scared me again!"
"Why would I scare you? Didn't you see how haggard your aunt is? If you don't have a job and a good partner, you will end up like thousands of young wives in rural areas."
Qin Siyue rolled her eyes: "Mom, are you afraid that I'm a celibate and are you saying this on purpose?"
"They see through it but don't say it out loud, they are still good mother and daughter." Chen Yunwei sighed: "In the past, society was tolerant, so I didn't say anything.
But it's the 1960s now. Even if you delay getting married, people will still talk about you. I, your mother, don't want to be judged."
As he spoke, he glanced at Qin Siyue with a warning in his eyes: "So, take it easy. If you can't find it yourself, don't blame me and your dad for it!"
Qin Siyue pouted and was about to cry. She felt that after traveling through time, her mother no longer loved her.
"Alright, alright, stop pretending. We all know each other." Chen Yunwei picked up the tailored autumn clothes and said, "Stretch out your arms!"
Qin Siyue raised his arm reflexively.
Chen Yunwei compared it to her: "Well, it's not bad, the skills haven't deteriorated."
Qin Siyue took a look and found it was true. He pursed his lips and said nothing.
Qin Jianye came in to take the two people's dirty clothes and asked, "What's wrong with my daughter?"
"Nothing, just chatting." Chen Yun didn't care.
Qin Jianye looked at him questioningly: "Speak for yourself."
Qin Siyue spread his hands and said, "What are you talking about? I'm being held captive!"
Unable to resist, she lay down, she gave in, she obeyed.
***
Two days passed quickly.
During these two days, the family of three ate and slept at Wei Xu's house, feeling very comfortable.
Apart from the old lady coming to check on him from time to time, which forced Qin Jianye to pack up his tent twice in a hurry, and the villagers discovering that someone was living here, becoming jealous and reporting it to the team leader, there was nothing else going on.
Qin Jianye certainly responded calmly to these "accidents".
I packed two kilograms of cornmeal for the old lady, saying it was bought from outside. I also sent half a bag of brown sugar to the family to sweeten the mouths of the younger generation.
As for the villagers, Qin Jianye didn't bother to show up. Wei Xu had made all the arrangements before leaving, and the team leader gave them a few perfunctory words before sending them away.
I thought the man would just leave, but unexpectedly, he climbed over the wall in the middle of the night.
Just as he was about to steal the clothes and quilt covers that were drying in the yard, Qin Jianye grabbed his head and hit him.
Qin Jianye didn't care who the person was and just spanked the other person's butt hard.
The man was hit with a broom again and again, and he screamed in pain, waking up all the neighbors.
Although everyone was very weak, they were still worried about something happening in the village.
After thinking it over, he got dressed, got off the bed, picked up his weapon and looked out the door.
"Ah, it hurts, it hurts, stop chasing me, stop chasing me!"
"Someone come, catch the thief!"
Compared to the man's dull cry of pain, Qin Siyue's small voice seemed more penetrating.
In a few seconds, the surrounding residents were attracted. Through the moonlight, they could see the situation in the yard and everyone gasped.
Oh my god, this Qin Lao San is so violent. He beat that so-and-so, oh, the village scoundrel, to a pulp.
Er Laizi had been running for so long that he was exhausted. Seeing his familiar fellow villagers, he sat down on the ground and then jumped up with a cry of "Ah!" "My butt, my butt, it hurts so much!"
The villagers, who had just been awakened from their sleepiness, couldn't help laughing when they saw this scene.
They all joked: "Wang Ergou, why are you not sleeping in the middle of the night and coming to Xiao Wei's house?"
Wang Ergou was as fearless as a dead pig: "Sleep, what else can I do? Why, Qin Laosan can sleep, but I, Wang Ergou, can't?"
Qin Jianye threw the broom away and bowed to his fellow villagers: "Sorry to disturb your sleep. I really didn't expect that someone would dare to break into a private house. Especially the home of an active-duty soldier!"
