Who can stand this?
Sun Jiaxue felt the chill on her chest and whispered, "Oh, Mom is still downstairs."
"It's hard to cook in a short time."
"But--"
"It's okay, just keep your voice down," he teased.
Sun Jiaxue's face flushed red after hearing this.
She bit his shoulder lightly.
…
Xiaohong and Xiaozhe came back from playing chess at Ding's house.
Niu Niu comes back from school.
As soon as I entered the door, I ran to the kitchen to see what delicious food was cooked.
"Grandma, you cooked so many dishes?"
"Your father made a little more when he came back. Go wash your hands and wait for dinner."
"Where's Dad?"
"Ahem, rest upstairs. You guys watch TV for a while."
The two brothers who originally wanted to go upstairs to look for someone sat down and watched TV obediently after hearing this.
Niu Niu went to the kitchen to help.
"Grandma, isn't Mommy back yet?"
"I'm back. I'll be down soon. Please bring the cooked food to the table first."
Mrs. Li breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that she didn't ask any more questions.
I was sweating profusely.
Young people can understand.
Li Mingqing and Sun Jiaxue went downstairs and saw Old Lady Li just putting the noodles into the pot.
Just in time for dinner.
She looked at Old Lady Li somewhat embarrassedly.
"Mom, let me do it. You sit down and rest for a while."
Old Lady Li said cheerfully, "No need, it will be ready soon."
When Xiaohong and Xiaozhe saw Li Mingqing, they immediately rushed over and shouted, "Dad, did you bring anything fun?"
"Yes, let's play after dinner."
"Great—"
"By the way, your Grandma Xu also bought a lot."
Niuniu said happily, "We wrote a letter to Grandma Xu a few days ago, and also wrote letters to Teacher Bi and Teacher Miao and sent them to the capital."
"Well, I guess they miss you kids too."
Old Lady Li brought the noodles to the table.
"Mingqing, you're finally back. To be honest, it's really uncomfortable for me to stay here alone. I don't know anyone, unlike in the village where I can chat with people across the wall at my doorstep."
This is the truth.
The small wall in the village really can't keep people out.
"Mom, there are a lot of old men and women in the small park next to us in the afternoon."
"We can't talk much, but we feel more at ease in the village."
After saying this, Old Lady Li smiled and continued, "Those old men and women were very polite to me when they found out I was your mother. They all said I raised a good son and married him to a good daughter-in-law."
My own child is really promising.
I traveled all over the country, mainly to big cities.
Her face also benefited from it.
Because of this, she was even more afraid that her words and actions would embarrass Li Mingqing and that she would say the wrong thing.
"Mom, why don't you let Dad come over and keep you company."
"Don't worry, your father and I are doing well in the village. Let's put it another way, we can't leave our house unattended. Think about your new brick house. There must be someone in the village who's been paying attention to it."
Li Mingqing smiled and said, "That's true. But our homestead can't be taken away by others."
"Some people don't care about that. If they see a house hasn't been occupied for a long time, they'll just move in. After five or six years, it becomes someone else's."
"Mom, it's not that exaggerated. I go back every now and then. Besides, my brother and the others still live in the village."
Seeing that he was not taking it seriously, Mrs. Li said, "Don't take it lightly. The Wang family from the next village had been living away from home for a long time and their house was taken away. It happened just last month."
"Is there really such a person?"
"Of course. Who wouldn't want to live in a nice house? Even Zhou Jingli, the educated youth, wants to live in one."
Li Mingqing nodded.
Zhou Jingli had told him this no less than ten times.
Every time we meet, we will say a few words to each other.
I really want to live in it.
Who wouldn’t want to get a bargain on a ready-made house?
"Mom, let's go back to the village tomorrow. I brought some things back from Shanghai."
"Just keep it for yourselves."
"It's a book that the big girl and the others can use."
"It's hard for you to move back from Shanghai. It's so heavy."
"I had to carry it back on the train. The train was tired."
Li Mingqing said with a smile.
Xiaohong and Xiaozhe said excitedly, "Dad, we will go back to the village tomorrow too."
"Okay, let's go back together."
Going back to the village is for fun.
The next morning.
Sun Jiaxue and Old Lady Li were busy packing up the things they were taking back.
Li Mingqing took out a lot of things.
Malted milk, canned food, powdered milk, everything you need.
"How can I take them all away?"
"Mom, I can't finish it. Look at how much is placed under the TV cabinet. If you don't eat it now, it will go bad. Take it home and don't be reluctant to eat it with Dad."
Other people can't eat such good food all year round.
It actually got spoiled by Li Mingqing.
If others heard it, they would think he was bragging.
Looking at the full box, Old Lady Li's eyelids twitched.
It’s really a blessing.
Sun Jiaxue went to work and went out with Niu Niu.
"Daughter, do you want to eat lunch at school or go home?"
“Eat it at school.”
"Okay, do you have any meal tickets?"
"I exchanged a lot of meal tickets last time, but I haven't used half of them yet."
County town fork in the road.
Li Mingqing, Old Lady Li and their two brothers were standing there waiting for the bus.
Met Li Minglan and Jiang Feng.
This was the first time Li Mingqing met the couple.
Jiang Feng looks honest and simple, and is more reliable than He Ming.
"Minglan, are you going back to your parents' home?"
"Yes, I came to the county town to buy some food for my two nephews."
Li Minglan said with a smile.
It looked like he was living a good life, and there was a little boy standing next to him.
