"It's okay, we are all family. You don't have to follow us, sister. You can go back." Deng Qingling and Deng Xiaomei chatted all the way downstairs.
Deng Xiaomei nodded and said, "Okay, I'll go upstairs after I see you go far away."
"Then I'm leaving." Deng Qingling said and walked out without looking back.
I walked to the station and the bus arrived in a short while. Maybe because I was full, I just felt a little dizzy on the bus and didn’t vomit.
After getting off the car, Deng Qingling walked directly into the depths of the bamboo forest and entered the space. She checked more than 70 yuan, took three old-fashioned flashlights and more than ten batteries, three old-fashioned lanterns, and wrapped two roast chickens and put them in a backpack, then flashed out of the space.
"Mom, I'm back! Where's Haohao?" Deng Qingling returned home and saw only her mother doing needlework in the yard, but no son.
"You're back. Your dad is taking Haohao to visit relatives." Liang Haidi heard the voice and looked up at Deng Qingling. She raised her hand, scratched her scalp with a needle, and continued to do needlework.
"Oh, Mom, whose pants are you making? They are so small." Deng Qingling looked at the size of the pants and was a little confused.
"I used old clothes to make two pairs of pants for Haohao, that's it." After Liang Haidi finished speaking, she stood up and shook her pants.
"It's so long, it doesn't fit!" Deng Qingling took it and compared the size.
"It's just a little longer so I can continue wearing it next year," said Liang Haidi.
"That's right. By the way, Mom, come in with me. I have something important to tell you." Deng Qingling walked into her parents' room carrying a backpack.
Liang Haidi entered the room and closed the door. "What's wrong? What can't you say outside?"
Deng Qingling took out ten yuan from her bag and put it in Liang Haidi's hand, "Mom, this is for you to buy something."
"Why are you giving me back my money? You're still raising a child! You just bought me clothes for my birthday. I don't want your money, take it back." Liang Haidi said as she stuffed the money back into Deng Qingling's hands.
"Mom, I have money. I made a lot today. Take these dollars and spend them." Deng Qingling was afraid that she would not believe her, so she took out the money from her bag and showed it to Liang Haidi.
I didn’t dare tell the truth about how much money I earned today, for fear of shocking my mother.
"That's so much, probably dozens of dollars! I'll take these ten dollars. My daughter is so capable. She earned dozens of dollars in just one day." There was a hint of pride in Liang Haidi's tone.
One day's salary is equivalent to two or three months' salary for others, so the risk is too great.
well!
There is no such thing as having the best of both worlds.
"There are still more than sixty yuan here." Deng Qingling said as she put the money into her bag.
Then he took out an old-fashioned flashlight and four batteries from the backpack, and an old-fashioned lantern. "These are for you, Mom. It will be more convenient for you to get up at night."
"How much do these cost? Why buy so much?" Liang Haidi saw the things in the backpack and blamed her daughter for spending money lavishly.
The speed at which money is spent is catching up with the speed at which money is earned.
Deng Qingling said, "Not much. My parents-in-law also have what you have. Otherwise, what if people find out and say I'm biased?"
Besides, my parents-in-law are pretty good to me. I always send gifts to my parents-in-law, and I would feel bad if I don’t give them anything.
"That's right. If my son-in-law knew about it, he would blame you, which would be bad." Liang Haidi thought so too. The relationship between husband and wife should not be affected by some trivial matters.
"By the way, these foods are for you." Deng Qingling just remembered that she hadn't taken out the apples and roast chicken yet.
My memory has declined since I became pregnant and gave birth, and I often forget things.
"Well, well, forget it. Mom doesn't want to say anything to you anymore. You should save money in the future because you still have a long life ahead of you!" Liang Haidi felt distressed again when she saw the big apple and roast chicken.
This spendthrift girl, even if she can earn money, she can't spend it like this!
Who can guarantee that this business will always be safe and sound?
It is right to spend money sparingly, alas!
You should save this ten dollars for her!
Deng Qingling comforted her, "Don't worry, Mom! I know what's going on. Besides, what you eat is yours, and no one can take it away."
Liang Haidi said: "As long as you know what's going on, I don't expect you to buy a lot of things. As long as you live a good life, that's enough."
It is true that raising a child for a hundred years means worrying about him for ninety-nine years.
Once you marry into someone else's family, you can't control so many things.
Deng Qingling smiled and said, "I know, I will live a good life, Mom, I will be back soon.
Go ask Dad to bring Haohao back! I'll go pack my things first."
"Okay, I'll go right away." Liang Haidi said, and went out to look for someone.
"Old man, Aqing is going to go back soon. I will take Haohao home first, and you go and borrow a bullock cart to take them back." Liang Haidi said as she took the child and told Deng Lu a few words.
Deng Lu nodded and said, "Okay, I understand. I'll go right away."
Deng Qingling had just finished packing her things when Liang Haidi and Haohao arrived home.
"Aqing, I'll cook something for you before we go back!"
Deng Qingling shook her head and said, "Mom, don't cook. I'm not hungry yet. I'd better go back early before it gets dark!"
Liang Haidi asked, "Okay! Have you packed everything?"
"Everything is packed up and here." Deng Qingling said while raising the things in her hands.
At this time, Deng Lu drove the ox cart to the door, "A Qing, come out! I'll take you back."
Deng Qingling walked to the door and saw her father on the ox cart. Her heart warmed and she asked with a smile, "Dad, is it okay to ride the ox cart up that slope?"
Deng Lu laughed and said, "It definitely won't work with more people, but it will work with just the three of us."
"Get in the car."
Liang Haidi said, "Ah Qing, put your things away and sit down. I'll hand Haohao over to you."
"Okay." Deng Qingling put her things away, sat on the bed, stretched out her hands and said, "Mom, give Haohao to me."
"Be careful." Liang Haidi said as she handed the child to Deng Qingling.
"Okay, goodbye Haohao and Podai." Deng Qingling took the child and sat him down, then waved to Haohao's hand.
Liang Haidi also waved and said, "Goodbye, Haohao. Be careful on the road and hold the child well."
"I understand. Dad, drive. I'm sitting here." Deng Qingling held Haohao in one hand and held on to the side of the car with the other.
"Okay, go." Deng Lu whipped the cow on its butt.
The cow felt pain and started running quickly. Deng Lu pulled the rope and the cow slowed down to a slow pace.
Half an hour later, we arrived at our destination.
The ox cart stopped at the gate of the yard. Deng Lu got off first and carried Haohao. Deng Qingling got off and wanted to get something.
Deng Lu said, "You hold Haohao, I'll take the things." Then he stuffed Haohao into Deng Qingling's arms.
Deng Qingling held the child and said, "Dad, it doesn't matter who takes it. It's not heavy."
"Okay, open the door and go in." Deng Lu said as he bent down to pick up something.
The gate to the courtyard was not locked, but ajar. Deng Qingling pushed it open gently.
