"Maybe it's because Wanwan felt bad after leaving Aunt Qian. She said she was uncomfortable, and she already went back to the house to rest." Li Qinghe didn't mean to help her hide it at all, although Li Fu and Li Fu would probably quarrel after saying these words, But she is not Zhao Wanwan.
Zhao Wanwan is usually at home except for busy farming. It is true that the housework is cumbersome, but she has nothing else to do besides this. Li Qinghe is different, she has to go to the wasteland every day to build a shed to work, and when the weather improves a little, she has to buy fish fry and chickens to raise, and when she has a little time, she has to do laundry and mend for herself, as well as Zhou Chengkang's clothes, which is also done by her now, actually I'm very busy, so I don't have much time to spend at home.
Li Fu was surprised when he heard this, he thought that Mrs. Qian had gone to return the things, but he didn't expect that he would run and lie down, and his expression sank as soon as he entered the door.
Yu Yan was going to help with a broom, but when she saw this situation, she lowered her voice, "I'll go back first, if... I'll come back later."
Li Qinghe sent her out and said with a smile, "I don't need you, it's just sweeping the floor. It looks cumbersome, but it won't last long."
When she turned around, she saw that Mrs. Qian had already put on her clothes and went out, angrily picked up the broom and swept the floor, saw her looking over, and sneered, "What are you looking at?"
"I think you're fine." Li Qinghe took it easy, "Didn't you say you can't breathe?"
He was so angry that his breathing was even.
Qian Shi immediately became even angrier.
At this time all the guests had left, only his family was left, Li Fu came out of the house, because someone would drink with him during the day, and it was not easy to refuse on a day like today, at this time his face was a little red, I also took a broom to sweep the floor.
When Mrs. Qian was angry, she worked very fast, and quickly cleaned half of it. After sweeping the yard, she went in to sweep again. Li Fu went to the backyard, and Li Qinghe cleaned up the tables and chairs. After an hour, it was almost done.
Dinner is the leftover food from the banquet. They are all ready-made and ready to eat when they are hot. During the meal, Li Fu glanced at Qian Shi, "I will pick Wanwan up early tomorrow morning, remember to cook."
Qian ignored it and turned his eyes away. Obviously still angry.
Li Fu put down his chopsticks, "Don't shake your face like this. Let me tell you, Wanwan is also your daughter. If you let her lose face, you will be happy yourself? Besides, when a girl gets married, she will be a guest when she returns to her mother's house. If you make her happy, she will come back more often, if you show her face, she will not be happy to come back, I don't think you have time to regret it."
"It's fine if you don't come back!" Qian said angrily, "I've been miserable all my life. Men and men are unreliable, and my daughters are for nothing. I might as well die." As she spoke, tears rolled down her cheeks.
Li Qinghe couldn't see her, got up and went out with the bowl in hand.
Li Fu's displeased voice came from behind, "Don't cry when you eat next time, it will affect your appetite!"
After saying that, he got up and went out. Seeing Li Qinghe in the yard, he softened his tone, "There is still food in the kitchen, go heat it yourself, don't go in."
Li Qinghe finished eating in two bites, "I'm full." He took the bowl into the kitchen.
When she came out again, Li Fu had already gone out of the yard to stroll on the road outside. Standing in the yard, she could clearly hear Qian's weeping, feeling very wronged.
"My father is gone." She shouted.
The crying sound in the room stopped for a while, and then disappeared. Qian came out with the bowls and chopsticks, "What are you waiting for, why don't you hurry up and clean up the bowls and chopsticks?"
Li Qinghe spread his hands, "I cook the rice, I don't accept it, you can show it if you have the skills!"
Qian Shi stomped her feet angrily, but she didn't dare to put it on as she said.
Li Qinghe went back to her room and took her clothes out to wash. She was busy for two days. In such a cold day, there were a lot of clothes to change. By the time she finished washing, it was already dark.
The next day, when Zhao Wanwan went back to her natal home, she had to be picked up by her father and brother. Li Fu left early in the morning, and Qian Shi also got up and went into the kitchen.
Li Qinghe also went to the kitchen to help with the cooking. There were still leftover meat and vegetables from yesterday, and they were prepared quickly, but there was nothing to say between the two of them, and the atmosphere was stagnant.
At dawn, Li Fu brought Zhao Wanwan back.
In the morning, the family still eats, it seems to be the same as before, but it seems a little different.
When it was noon, Hu Yanxi came and wanted to pick up Zhao Wanwan after lunch, so the marriage was considered over. After that, when Zhao Wanwan came back, it would depend on her mood except for the holidays.
In fact, what Li Fu said last night was correct, if the home is comfortable, then the daughter will definitely be willing to come back more often, if she is not happy to shake her face when she comes back, maybe she really won't come.
Mrs. Qian was very satisfied with this son-in-law, and helped him pick up vegetables several times, and asked with a smile, "When do you plan to leave for the county examination in March?"
"The sooner the better." Hu Yanxi thanked with a smile, and continued, "We have to rent a yard when we go, and the few of us make an appointment to live together, so we can save a lot of money."
Hearing this, Li Fu frowned slightly, "Uncle Wanwan is also there?"
Hu Yanxi smiled, "Uncle and I used to be classmates, but now that we are relatives, we should take care of each other."
After hearing this, Qian's smile deepened, and he picked up another piece of meat, and said, "Eat more."
But Li Fu was dissatisfied when he heard his answer. He glanced at Zhao Wanwan who was shy with her head down, and said, "If possible, we should live separately..."
"What nonsense?" Qian gave him a squinting look, "Isn't this close person better than that stranger?" Then he asked his daughter, "Wanwan, what do you think?"
Zhao Wanwan raised her head and smiled, but said nothing.
Embarrassed and annoyed, Qian looked helplessly at the remaining Li Qinghe, "Qinghe, what do you think?"
Li Qinghe just buried her head in her meal and didn't say a word. It's not suitable for her to talk too much on such an occasion. When she heard Qian Shi asking herself, she smiled and said, "My brother-in-law reads a lot, so I should know it well."
Hearing this, Qian looked at her appreciatively, then at Li Fu, "Qing He agrees."
Li Qinghe was speechless, and took a look at Hu Yanxi, who was eating slowly. He didn't look stupid, he was indeed someone with ideas, and whether he wanted to be together was not up to Qian to arrange.
He seemed to have answered Qian's words just now, but in fact he didn't give a correct answer. For example, when asked when to leave, he replied that the sooner the better. He said that he had made an appointment with several people to live together, and Qian asked if he wanted to bring money for the paper. They only said that relatives should take care of each other, but they didn't say that those who live together must have money to send a paper.
Therefore, what she said is also true, and people know it well.
Qian was very satisfied, and asked again, "Then you have prepared the money?"
"No." The smile on Hu Yanxi's face was reduced a little, and the brows were slightly frowned, as if he was in infinite difficulty, "However, there will always be a way."
During this period of time, the family had quarreled many times over this matter, and when it was mentioned again, the atmosphere became serious. Li Fu stood up and went in to get the wine, causing Qian's words to choke in his throat.
After eating, the two of them were sent away.
Hu Yanxi took good care of Zhao Wanwan in his actions, and the two seemed to be quite intimate in their gestures. Qian looked at her with a smile, her eyes were full of satisfaction.
Seeing the two walking away, the smile on Qian's face disappeared immediately, and she said seriously, "Father, this is your son-in-law, so you can't help me? It will be good for Wanwan and us when he passes the exam." of."
Li Qinghe turned around and entered the door, intending to change clothes and go to the field. There was still half a day left, so he could do as much as he could.
When she came out, she heard Li Fulue's angry words, "I just paid five taels of silver as a dowry, so where can I borrow money?"
He was angry, and Qian was not to be outdone, "Didn't half of the five taels go to Qinghe? In time... ”
Seeing Li Qinghe come out in a blink of an eye, Li Fu interrupted her by pulling her.
Qian Shi turned her head to see her going out, snorted coldly, raised her foot and went in.
"It's very temperamental." Li Qinghe sighed, it really is true love.
"Going to the field again?" Li Fu softened his expression, "Do you want me to help you too?"
She waved her hand and said sincerely, "No, there's so much work in the field, dad can do his own work."
When Li Fu heard this, he felt sad, and thought of the angry person in the house, he was dissatisfied. The family was busy planting spring after the new year, and she was still angry every day, so she got up and went in immediately, "Changing clothes, come with me." Go to the ground, you are afraid of the sun, just now there is no sun."
Li Qinghe went to work in the fields. She was really busy. By the end of the first month, the shacks and small houses were almost done. She went to the town with Zhou Chengkang to buy chickens.
Some people sell chicks now, but they are too small to die young, and there are not many of them. You have to take your time, and you can ask the fry.
By the time she put the fish fry in the water, it was already February, and when she went to the town again, there were rumors everywhere that those scholars were going to the county town to take part in the examination, and it was said that they would leave in a few days. He also said which family brought a book boy, which family was rich, and which family also brought a girl to serve.
When she put the fry, she fished out the remaining big fish, which weighed four to five catties each, and they were not very easy to sell, and they would be reluctant to buy such a big fish to eat back when they were free. Sometimes, sometimes I want such a big fish on purpose, and I have to make an appointment with the fish seller in advance, so I thought about asking.
She basically knew all the helpers in the restaurant. She entered directly through the back door and walked around to the kitchen. Just as she was about to say hello to them, she saw Zhao Wanwan squatting by the stove and lighting the fire.
This is also normal, no matter who it is, they just light the fire and wash the dishes when they first come.
"Sister, what are you doing here?" Zhao Wanwan stuffed a few sticks of firewood, got up and came out, "It just so happens that I have something to ask you, so go out and talk about it."
Li Qinghe raised his eyebrows, "I didn't come to see you, I have something to do."
It was still early at this time, and it was time to prepare dishes, so she entered the small room where the chef was resting. The chef of this restaurant is surnamed Chen, and he is kind to others. After hearing this, he smiled and said, "You can bring it over, and I will tell the shopkeeper when the time comes."
After the matter was settled, Li Qinghe thanked him with a smile.
Seeing her coming out, Zhao Wanwan quickly followed her out, "Sister, I have something to discuss with you."
"What's the matter?" Li Qinghe doubted that she would ask to borrow money. Hu Yanxi was about to leave. Although she had some money on hand, she actually had some plans in her heart. She was afraid that it would not be enough. It was impossible to borrow money. .
"Husband will leave for the county seat in a few days," Zhao Wanwan paused, "Many people have brought bookboys and maids with them, our family can't afford people, can you..."
Li Qinghe just waited for her to refuse as soon as she asked to borrow money, so she heard her say, "... Help me to work for two months?"
