The middle-aged man looked puzzled.
My younger brother is my parents' late-born son. He has been well protected by my family since he was a child. He has been studying and working smoothly. He is kind and simple.
What could such a person do wrong?
It's really curious.
Just like now, even though he is so busy at work, his old mother still asks him to put down his work and pick up his younger brother to go home for dinner.
You're such a grown-up now, it's not like you can't go home by yourself.
The old mother also said that it was okay not to pick him up, but to quickly bring her a daughter-in-law. Then he would be responsible for picking up his own daughter-in-law from then on.
He didn't want to get married and was a bachelor. What could he say? He could only accept his fate and come pick her up.
The young teacher's name was Sun Wenhua, and he finally put into words what he had just heard.
She said, "There's a child in our school. When she was little, her father wanted to starve her and her to death so he could remarry. Later, the mother and daughter were rescued. When they divorced, her father signed an agreement to give up the child. Now this man wants to come back and take the child away."
"I didn't understand any of this at the time. I just thought it was unreasonable for this woman to stop a man from seeing his child. I spoke up for this man."
The middle-aged man, Sun Zehua, said, "Oh, it's not a big deal." But his brother was always kind-hearted, so he might as well go and make a formal apology.
This saves his old parents from seeing their younger brother unhappy and getting upset at home.
"Old Sun, go to the nearest phone booth."
Sun Zehua went to a phone booth, made a call, waited for a while, answered another call, and then returned to the car.
"Go to No. 15 Xuezijian Street."
Sun Wenhua asked, "What are you going there for?"
Sun Zehua said calmly, "Don't you feel guilty towards him? I'll take you there to apologize."
Sun Wenhua's depressed mood was swept away: "Brother, you are really capable. You found out their address so quickly."
Sun Zehua nodded calmly and said nothing more. Sun Wenhua had long since adapted to his brother's cold demeanor and kept to himself throughout the journey.
When they arrived at their destination, Old Sun parked the car aside. Sun Zehua got out and went to knock on the door with his brother.
Qin Zhichu was cooking when he heard someone knocking on the door.
"Yanyan, watch the fire."
In addition to the coal stove, she also had a wood stove built in the kitchen. Cooking in a large pot is more fragrant than cooking on a coal stove.
She told Yanyan to watch the fire under the stove, took off her apron and ran out.
The temperature in the kitchen was higher, and Qin Zhichu's fair and delicate oval face was covered with sweat.
Her long hair, like a waterfall, was tied into a ponytail and a handkerchief-like hairband, exuding gentleness in silence.
A white shirt with lantern sleeves, a dark yellow ankle-length skirt, and a pair of low-heeled leather shoes.
With her gentle smile, she looks like a lady from ancient times, which is eye-catching.
How could this woman look like someone abandoned by her husband? She didn't look at all haggard as one might imagine.
Who is so stupid as to leave a woman like this behind?
Seeing that he was the right person, Sun Wenhua grabbed his elder brother's arm, pulled him behind him, and squeezed forward.
"Hello, I'm the teacher at the school gate just now."
Qin Zhichu was stunned for a moment before he reacted: "Oh, yes, hello! What can I do for you?"
She didn't know the teacher, but the teacher seemed to know her daughter.
Sun Wenhua said, "I'm here to apologize for what happened just now."
Before Qin Zhichu could say anything, Yanyan's voice came from the kitchen: "Mom, if you don't put the pancakes in, the soup will dry up!"
Qin Zhichu quickly made way for him: "There are tables and chairs in the yard. Come in and sit for a while. I'm halfway through my meal."
After saying that, he turned around and trotted straight to the kitchen.
Sun Wenhua took his brother and walked in.
In the kitchen, Qin Zhichu was making braised pork ribs with pancakes.
The ribs were almost tender, so she put the chopped potatoes in first. She then divided the dough into several even portions and placed them on the edge of the pot.
It is much more convenient to cook the vegetables and staple food in one pot. I learned this method from Cao Xiu.
Sun Zehua was pulled into the courtyard by his younger brother.
There are two plots of land on the left and right sides of the door in front of each row of houses in the courtyard.
There are holly trees planted on both sides outside the main house on the south side.
In front of the east and west wing rooms, there are clusters of half-human-high roses planted. At this moment, the red, pink and yellow roses are in full bloom.
There are all kinds of small vegetables planted in front of the house on the south side. There are not many of each kind, but there are many varieties.
This was made by Qin Zhichu and Yanyan when they were free.
There is a set of stone tables and stone benches next to the vegetable garden. The benches are covered with homemade small mats, and the table is covered with a tablecloth.
The overall layout of the courtyard is simple but warm, making people feel comfortable and relaxed.
As soon as the two of them sat down, Qin Yanyan came over with two glasses of water.
The little girl had a high ponytail and wore a pure white waist-hugging dress with ruffles on the neckline and cuffs, adding a touch of beauty.
Perhaps because she had been crying recently, her eyes were bright, with a hint of red at the corners. There was a hint of dust on the tip of her small nose. She looked very pleasing.
The clothes of the mother and daughter are all produced by their own clothing factory. They usually act as models to try on the clothes and usually keep one of the new styles, so there are a lot of clothes at home.
This will seem very sophisticated in the eyes of others.
"Teacher Sun, drink some water. My mom knows you're my math teacher, so she wants you to stay for dinner."
The speaking voice is also very lively.
Sun Wenhua said embarrassedly: "No, we can just go back and eat later."
Qin Yanyan said enthusiastically, "Hey, Teacher Sun, you're welcome. Besides, my mom is busy right now, and she'd definitely feel bad for leaving you waiting."
