Subscribe some more, and the little cutie can immediately see me who is so excited that I am crazy~
A girl whose love has been punctured and her self-esteem has been shattered, what should she do with the person she likes, she will definitely not be able to act like nothing happened, escape, pretend to be strong, and what's more, there will be a situation where love turns into hatred.
Qiu Xiaochan was carrying a bamboo basket, and when she was about to pass the intersection, Gu Wenqian's steady voice sounded behind her as expected.
"Comrade Qiu."
Qiu Xiaochan stopped and turned her head, Gu Wenqian strode over.
"Comrade Qiu, I've already eaten eggplant pancakes, and they taste delicious. In addition, I apologize to you for my lack of rigor. I didn't mean that. I just understand that everyone's life is not easy, and I can't accept your gift with peace of mind."
After speaking, he stretched out his hand and handed the things over. Qiu Xiaochan looked down and saw that they were two food stamps that are common throughout the country, and the face value was not small.
Gu Wenqian insisted, "Please accept this."
Qiu Xiaochan bit her lip and remained silent for a long while, and finally took one of them from his strong and well-defined hands, "Comrade Gu, one is enough, I didn't spend anything, they are all vegetables and eggs from home." , at most it took a little flour."
Gu Wenqian smiled and nodded slowly, "Okay, thank you anyway."
Both of them are smart people, and they both understand each other's meaning. Since Qiu Xiaochan received the food stamps, they have never owed each other.
For Gu Wenqian, the last pumpkin pie had already "repaid" his kindness for saving people, but this time the eggplant pie was beyond the scope of repayment, and he had to pay an equivalent exchange to accept it without burden.
As for Qiu Xiaochan, she was also testing the other party a little bit, knowing that for a man like Gu Wenqian, if he wanted him to accept her sincerely, it was not enough to rely on a man's love for a woman, the harmony of souls and keeping pace with each other could really move him.
After returning home, Qiu Xiaochan started cooking, and Zhang Daying was surprised that she could buy meat back without a meat ticket.
"When I went to buy it, there was no one at the stall. After saying a few good words, the elder brother cut a piece of meat for me and asked me to keep quiet."
"That's good. You have to accept his love when someone treats you well."
Only those who have suffered will understand that goodwill is a luxury, and more of it is numbness. When you fall, no one steps up and steps on it and you have already earned it.
Although Zhang Daying has lived in the countryside all her life and has no education, the poverty of fifty years is enough for her to see through a lot.
Qiu Xiaochan nodded in response, and asked again, "Mom, pig lungs and bones are used to make soup. How do you want to eat this meat? Do you eat braised pork or chop it up for meatballs?"
Zhang Daying's eyes turned to the distance, and became distant, as if recalling something.
"Half a catty of meat, just braise it in soy sauce, you have loved it since you were a child."
She remembered that more than ten years ago, when the lunar team slaughtered New Year’s pigs, her husband was still alive at that time, and the family brought back five catties of meat. They cooked half a pot of braised pork that day. disaster, her husband got sick again, and the life of the family deteriorated year after year.
After finally waiting for the son to get married and start a business, he experienced the phrase "marrying a wife and forgetting her mother". The family separated as soon as the husband left, and only their mother was left to depend on each other. The scene of eating braised pork around the stove that year has become a memory. One of the few warm memories in my life.
The stove is gurgling and steaming. Really good cooking does not require overly complicated ingredients, but to bring out the flavor contained in the food itself.
The mouth-watering aroma wafted through the air, and everyone in the neighborhood could smell it.
"Who's opening foreign meat today, the taste will make you hungry."
"Is it Lu Laoer's house? Could it be that there are guests at home?"
It is not easy to eat meat these days. Only during festivals, when guests are at home, or when ancestors are worshipped, are they willing to buy meat.
He Min, the youngest daughter of the He family, said, "Mom, I don't think this smell is from the east, but from the west."
In order to confirm her guess, she ran to a corner and sniffed it. It was indeed the scent of Qiu's courtyard, with white smoke still rising from the chimney.
"It's really her home."
The old lady of the He family also spoke, "I remember that Changgen's memorial day is winter."
"There are no guests at home, but someone saw Xiao Chan carrying a bamboo basket to the town in the morning, and even went to the cowshed."
It was He Min's aunt who said this, and after she finished speaking, He Min's mother suddenly realized, "This is right, their lives are so tight that they are not willing to buy meat, and it is even more impossible for Chen Guilian to give them this good, So this meat must have something to do with Comrade Gu in the cowshed."
In the eyes of everyone, even if Gu Wenqian is "decentralized", he is still a skinny camel bigger than a horse. He is a city resident, and he can receive packages from the capital every once in a while, and he has no money or tickets? Maybe there is something good to eat while hiding.
Everyone can see what the days of the Qiu family were like before. How come Xiaochan has gotten better since she fell into the water once. I often smell the smell of food in their yard. Who would believe that there is no connection between them!
In fact, Qiu Xiaochan's food was pretty good in the few days before Qiu Xiaochan fell into the water, at least she could eat eggs every day, but once people have their own guesses, they will keep drilling into that idea, and overcome all difficulties to prove themselves The guess is right.
"Mom, what you said is really true. It was during this period that the life of the Qiu family got better. That Qiu Xiaochan even changed her temper."
He Min is two years younger than Qiu Xiaochan, so he can be regarded as the same age. As neighbors, they are all girls, so they should have a good relationship, but because Qiu Xiaochan is pretty and has been liked since she was a child, He Min has been secretly jealous of her. .
I remember when he was five years old, He Min went to Qiu's house to play, and saw that brother Ruiming from the Zhou family was there, and brought Qiu Xiaochan a lot of food, which made He Min feel hungry.
Qiu Xiaochan gave her two pieces of candy, and after He Min ate it, he realized that there are such delicious things in the world, which are sweet and fragrant in the mouth, and Qiu Xiaochan told her that it tasted like milk.
He Min still wanted to eat after eating, but she was too embarrassed to ask for more. At that time, she thought, she only had two yuan, and Qiu Xiaochan had a big tin can.
She also heard Zhou's elder brother say, "Xiao Chan, I asked my second uncle to buy this for you. If you like to eat it, I will ask my second uncle to bring it when he comes back."
"No need Brother Ruiming, my mother said that eating too much sugar will cause tooth decay, and this is enough for me for a long time."
He Min is so envious, but she can't get what others don't care about. Although she doesn't know what the difference between cloud and mud is, that's how she felt at the time.
Later, the Zhou family was quarreled, and the Zhou family's elder brother disappeared unexpectedly. Qiu Xiaochan was no longer the daughter-in-law of the landlord's family, and her life was worse than her. Only then was He Min's heart balanced, but now seeing Qiu Xiaochan becoming more and more radiant He Min's heart became unbalanced again because he was inextricably linked with Comrade Gu in the capital.
At the end of June, the temperature in the kitchen was more than five degrees higher than that outside the house. Sweat had already soaked the back, but Qiu Xiaochan didn’t feel the heat at all. The milky white pig’s lung and big bone soup was gurgling, and the red-sauce braised pork The juice was also collected, sprinkled with a handful of green garlic leaves, the color and fragrance are delicious, and the saliva is unconsciously secreted, which is the sequelae of long-term vegetarianism.
Braised pork, big bone soup, lettuce, and a pile of homemade kimchi to relieve the greasy, the small square table is almost full.
Zhang Daying smiled sadly, he didn't know how to drop the chopsticks.
"Today's meal is richer than Chinese New Year's."
Qiu Xiaochan took the fat and thin braised pork with chopsticks and put it into her bowl, "Mom, you should taste the meat first."
Zhang Daying nodded after taking a sip, "Well, it's really good, this is the best meat I've ever eaten."
Qiu Xiaochan chuckled, "Mom, you are too good at complimenting me, and this soup, drink more soup to nourish your stomach."
Zhang Daying looked at her daughter's filial piety. At this moment, she was very happy, as if she had forgotten all the troubles and pains.
The mother and daughter were eating, when the wooden door was pushed open with a "snap", Qiu Xiaochan turned around, and saw Chen Guilian standing at the gate of the courtyard with an angry face and her waist in her hands.
"Oh, I heard people say that I still don't believe it. It turns out that I really hide at home and eat meat. I'm living a better life than me. I can eat meat and use the grain we eat every day to feed you. It's a good job. Abacus."
The meat in Zhang Daying's mouth suddenly tasted bad. She knew that her daughter-in-law was here to find fault, so she must not be nice today.
The captain asked her to enter the room to talk, and finally agreed to Qiu Xiaochan's proposal, and asked someone to invite Gu Wenqian. Li Chunhua, as another party involved, was called into the room by the captain for "teaching".
"Chunhua, I remember that you are the same age as Sun Wu. You are thirty-six this year. Why do you have trouble with a little girl at such an age? You are ten years older than Xiaochan. If you married early, you would have given birth to her. I haven't heard of any trouble between you either."
Li Chunhua didn't speak, because she underestimated Qiu Xiaochan, she didn't expect this girl to really dare to complain to the captain, and regretted not stopping her halfway.
The villagers watching the excitement outside the house raised their voices, "Captain, Li Chunhua's cousin Li San wanted to marry Xiaochan, but Xiaochan didn't agree. I guess it's because of this incident that made her bear a grudge."
The captain turned his head and asked Li Chunhua, "Is that so? Just because of this, you demoted people to nothing?"
The captain's daughter-in-law brought a tea bowl to pour water for everyone, Qiu Xiaochan took it to thank her, the captain's wife looked at her several times in surprise, and finally boasted with a smile, "The girl has changed eighteen years, Xiaochan is getting more beautiful the longer she grows, I didn’t see you going out very much before, but recently you’ve become more cheerful, so young people should come out and walk around more often, since you live in a village, if you have any difficulties, everyone will definitely be willing to help you.”
Qiu Xiaochan understands what the captain’s daughter-in-law said, that is, if there is a grievance, it is necessary to speak out, and the relationship between people is born. Snow in front of the door, who would do thankless things
The original owner was too introverted before, but if he is more powerful, he will not fall to that point. In the final analysis, "character determines destiny".
Gu Wenqian arrived soon. He had already heard what happened on the way here. He knew that it was Qiu Xiaochan who was criticized in person, so he asked himself to prove his "innocence". This reminded him of the time when his family was wronged and raped. The days of indisputable.
