Li Qinghe put the bun in the kitchen and found that it was cleaned up, even cleaner than when they were all at home, even the firewood in front of the stove was neatly piled up.
The woman still stood there without moving, she went directly around the house to the backyard, Li Fu was digging the ground, when she saw her coming, he dropped the hoe, "I'll take a look at the child."
He bends down to tease the child, a child who is over a hundred days old, because Li Qinghe and Li Qinghe often talk to him, and they will grin when they see people, Li Fu is overjoyed, "You know me, do you want me to hug you?"
In fact, it was just a question, he really wanted to hug him, but now his body was covered with dirt, and he was satisfied with making gestures for a while. Li Qinghe looked at his smiling eyes and asked, "Father, who is that person outside?"
"Did you see it?" He sighed, and continued, "Her surname is Liu, from Liu's Village, the sister of your aunt's natal family, she is also a poor girl, she has no man, and she takes her daughter to live. Before your aunt I went back a few days and found that she was homeless. When I came back, I told your grandparents, and your grandparents came to the door specially, saying that I should find someone to live with, so that they can rest assured."
"I have been sorry to many people in my life. I am unfilial to my parents, unfaithful to my wife, unkind to my children... I just thought, I must be worthy of someone, so I said let her take a look. Today she is the first When I came back, I insisted on working for me. I was not familiar with it, and I felt embarrassed, so I ran to the backyard to farm."
I didn't expect that this woman was actually found by Li Kui for his son, but seeing her cleaning the yard and kitchen, and washing the clothes, she is indeed a very hardworking person, and taking care of Li Fu will be fine.
When she went to the front yard with the child in her arms, Liu Shi rubbed her hands cautiously and forced a smile at her.
Li Qinghe also smiled back, and then went out to go home with the child in her arms.
In the afternoon, her grandmother and Mrs. Liu came to the door.
Li Kui, grandparents and grandchildren were all very nice to her, and they were very happy to ask them for help every time, especially Li Kui, who didn't ask for her wages every time, just had a meal, basically doing nothing.
Therefore, Li Qinghe also respected her grandmother very much. Occasionally, when she caught fish to sell, she would ask Zhou Chengkang to send one over. When the sweet potatoes were just harvested, she even asked Li Xingwang to bring some back.
Her grandmother was also from Liucun, although at that time Liucun looked at the fifth sister's family with a lot of land, but in fact Liucun lived close to the town, with less land and more people, many girls married in Wangcun.
Grandmother Quan's is a neat woman, and occasionally quarrels with Liu's, but on the whole, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law get along pretty well. After entering the door, she glanced around the yard and was quite satisfied, "I just like this house Cleaned up neatly."
Sitting down after entering the door, Quan said again, "I came here today just for your father. I asked your brother to invite you on New Year's day, but he refused to come. Then I went by myself..." She wiped her face, "There are only two dishes on the table, and the room is deserted. He even drinks by himself, and the dishes are cold. Qing He, you have become a mother too. If your son is like this..." She patted her chest, "My heart aches! That money Shi, it’s not bad, she’s just a goblin, if she can live a good life, I won’t talk about it, but she’s a slob, I can see it before we get married, go up the mountain with your father, whether it’s mowing grass It's still chopping firewood, it's your father who will help her, I knew at that time that this marriage will not work out, if it does, your father will have to take care of her for the rest of her life!"
"Actually, the Qian family asked for a high dowry at that time. Your grandfather and I were still young at that time. If we really wanted to, we could scrape together it together. At worst, we would have to pay off the ten-year debt!" The more Quan said, the more angry he became, "If a good , I can't say that I really did what he wanted, but I can't figure out why I have worked hard for more than ten years just to marry her. So, against your father's wishes, you hired your mother to come in. For this, your father also blamed me Over ten years."
"I'm sorry for your mother. I have wronged her, and I have wronged you. Your father doesn't love you. That woman from the Qian family has always been sharp-tongued. Asking her to work is like killing her..."
Liu Shi patted her on the back, "Mother, it's too far away."
Quan nodded, "I hate her when I talk about her. I can't finish talking about it for three days and three nights. What do you mean by a woman who protects a man and prevents him from interacting with his parents? Over the years, she has come to the door several times. Can I still drive her out?"
"Mother." Mrs. Liu teased her again.
Quan waved his hand, "Let's not talk about her." He took a sip of water from the cup and praised, "Actually, the spring water in the west of the village tastes very good."
"Originally, I was thinking that if your father didn't dislike Nizi, I would come here to mention this matter to you. But I heard Nizi said that you saw her today?"
Li Qinghe nodded, "I see."
"Nizi is very diligent, but she is unlucky. The man she married is sick. She has been away for three years, and she is still obedient. Her mother-in-law is a bastard, and she wants her to marry her uncle. It's not even normal. Yes. Your cousin’s grandfather is her uncle. After hearing about this incident, she ran to make a fuss and broke off the relationship with the other side. Then she took their mother and daughter back. But she has no home anymore , the brother and sister-in-law here won't let her in. It's been half a month since I came back, and I'm staying at your aunt's family." Quan Shi went to drink water again.
Liu Shi smiled, "Qing He, although I brought this matter up, if you don't want to, I will find someone else for her. The main reason is that I am afraid that Qian Shi will come back and make your grandmother angry."
Not to mention, it is really possible for Qian to come back. From the time when Li Fu's land deed changed her name, it can be seen that this woman regards her father's land as her own, or as it is jointly owned by her and Li Fu. Yes, that's why I came to ask for it.
Quan's sneered, "If she comes back again, this time it is your father who wants her again, and I will not refuse. If she runs to the Zhao family's yard every day and her reputation becomes like that, then she is not a person who lives a good life! Qinghe, even if It doesn't matter if you don't agree with Nizi, at worst, I will find someone else, even if your father doesn't look for her in the future, I won't let her in either!"
In fact, Li Qinghe has no objection to Li Fu's remarriage, but he can't live like Qian's. At least he can eat hot food when he comes back from work, right? Also, being angry and cold war at every turn, and not speaking for ten days and a half months, who can stand it
Holding the cup, she said frankly, "If Dad is willing, I won't object."
Quan Shi was delighted when he got the right words, "Qing He, you are indeed a sensible child."
After seeing off the two of them, it was getting dark. She moved the child's crib under the eaves and went to the kitchen to cook. The meal was not ready yet, but Zhou Chengkang had already returned and went into the kitchen to help. She couldn't help but mutter, "You Just take care of the kids and don’t need to cook.”
Then he asked with a smile, "Go to the restaurant tomorrow, are you going to the town?"
Li Qinghe wanted to go, not because he was thinking about things, but because he wanted to let the children see more people, and the lively children would not be afraid of being born.
At night, when she talked about Liu Nizi, Zhou Chengkang hugged her and asked in a low voice, "Don't you want your father-in-law to marry again?"
"No." Li Qinghe said sincerely, "If there is someone who knows how to take care of him, I can rest assured."
Alone at home, it’s okay to be young now, but when you get older in the future, to put it harshly, no one will know if you fell.
Zhou Chengkang patted her, "Father is already in his dozen years, and he knows it well. Go to sleep, you have to get up early tomorrow."
Every time they go to town, they go early and leave at dawn. This time, Li Qinghe plans to buy a piece of good material to make clothes for the child in Yu Yan's belly. Yu Yan also made clothes for her earlier. In two months, she will give birth.
When passing by Zhou's house in the morning, Zhou's mother and Fifth Sister have already woken up. They plan to go to the market today. In a few days, Fifth Sister's wedding will be coming. I have to go to the town to see if the furniture is ready. If it is not done yet , I have to remind you.
Seeing the carriage passing by the door, Mother Zhou spotted it out of the corner of her eye and shouted, "Fourth!"
Then, there were more mother and daughter in the carriage, and Zhou's mother took the child over, stretched out her hand to tease, "It's all your parents' fault for getting up so early, why did you go out so early? You can't sleep well, right? "
Lying in swaddling clothes, the child giggled at his grandmother, making Zhou's mother's smile even brighter than his.
This road was too familiar, and the journey went smoothly. At the entrance of the town, the carriage stopped, and Mother Zhou took Fifth Sister and left.
The two went to the restaurant first, seeing the child she was holding, and said with a smile, "I heard that you gave birth a long time ago, but I haven't seen it yet." He took out a dime and put it in the swaddle, seeing that she wanted to refuse, he waved his hand and said, "It's my heart."
Li Qinghe will not talk about it, and he will come back when he has a happy event in the future. Chef Chen looked outside the door and asked in a low voice, "Mrs. Liu in the back street fell a few days ago. It won't work."
Ever since he left Zhou's house, he would run into him occasionally when he came over. If he missed him, he wouldn't even say hello. Li Qinghe asked curiously, "How did you fall?"
Chef Chen shook his head, "It was a quarrel with someone. Didn't she sell her daughter-in-law's tofu recipe? The person who came to her two days ago was the one who sold the recipe. He insisted that the recipe she gave was incomplete. It's not as good as your elder brother's delicious one, let her hand over the complete recipe."
"She couldn't hand it in again. The people here were not convinced, and then they quarreled. After that, they pushed a few times. After being pushed by the woman of that family, she fell to the ground firmly. At that time, she couldn't get up. Now Still lying on the bed..."
