Traversing the courtyard

Chapter 263 Liu Guangtian's Blind Date

Qin Huairu smiled and said: "Okay! I also want to hear the second aunt talk about what happened in the courtyard recently."

The two walked side by side in the alley back to the courtyard, and the second aunt said, "You don't know that your cousin Qin Huairu's old lady got crazy and came back on New Year's Eve?"

Qin Jingru asked in surprise: "Ah! How did you get crazy? Can you still go home?"

The second aunt was in high spirits, and she started talking vividly from Wei Gongan's notification, even telling the story of the old woman being kicked by Yi Weidong.

Qin Jingru became very nervous in an instant, she was about to live in the same room with the mentally ill, and she didn't know when she would fall ill, if she hurt herself, it wouldn't be bad luck!
Qin Jingru said worriedly: "It's so scary after this, if I go crazy, what should I do?"

"Yeah, you're a girl, be careful not to get hurt."

The two chatted while walking, and the second aunt told Qin Jingru about the marriage of He Yuzhu and Lou Xiaoe.

Qin Jingru was also very surprised when he heard that, He Yuzhu and Lou Xiao'e were both married in a blink of an eye, and he regretted that he might as well have gotten along with He Yuzhu at that time!

Now that my innocent body was given to Xu Damao, Xu Damao married Qin Huairu instead, and I have to wait for their divorce before I can marry Xu Damao again. What is going on!

The second aunt asked tentatively: "Aunt Huaihua, didn't you find a husband's house this Spring Festival?"

Qin Jingru didn't look for her in-law's family before, but who knows if she mentioned her in-law's family around the Spring Festival. At this time, they meet and get married very quickly, and it's normal for them to get married within three to five days of meeting.

When Qin Jingru asked about her marriage, she couldn't say that she had already made an appointment with Xu Damao. As long as Xu Damao and Qin Huairu divorced, she would marry Xu Damao. Both cousins ​​were married to the same man, so they would not be laughed to death .

Qin Jingru said shyly, "Second aunt, I haven't found my husband's family yet. Last year, I just wanted my cousin to introduce someone in the city, so that I can eat the planned food."

Everyone in the courtyard knew about this matter, and the meeting between Qin Huairu and He Yuzhu was not hidden from others, of course the second aunt knew about it.

All the little girls outside the city plan to marry into the city to eat the planned food, but few of them can marry in the end. Qin Jingru is also beautiful. It is normal to have this idea. The second aunt also understands, since Qin Jingru has not yet found her husband's family. , I will discuss it with my old man later, and then ask Liu Guangtian for his opinion.

The second aunt was very happy, and looked at Qin Jingru a little more pleasing to the eye. At this time, the rural girl is good, not as delicate as the little girl in the city. She is willing to do any job, bears hardships and stands hard work. Then she can handle this daughter-in-law live.

The two chatted all the way, and when they came to the courtyard, the second aunt said: "From now on, I will come to the second aunt's room when I have nothing to do during the day. Our mother and I will make shoes and chat together, and you should stay with your mother-in-law less. Son."

The second aunt decided not to be explicit, let her son Liu Guangtian and Qin Huairu stay together, first understand, if her son is in love, then ask Qin Jingru's opinion, if Liu Guangtian is not in love, this matter will be fine , Then find another girl for a blind date.

Qin Jingru also had a headache because of being in the same room with Aunt Zhang, but now it's over, the second aunt invited herself to visit, so that she would have a place to go during the day, as long as she made lunch for Xiaodang and Huaihua every day.

Qin Jingru said with a smile: "Then I'll come and chat with Second Aunt, as long as Second Aunt doesn't bother me."

"I'm alone at home every day and no one talks to me. I'm too happy to have you to accompany me. How can I bother you!"

"Then I will often come to trouble the second aunt."

The two were polite, and the matter was settled.

It was already noon, and Qin Huairu had come back from the juvenile prison with his old woman and two little girls, seeing Qin Jingru entering the door and smiling: "Jingru, I knew you would come in the next two days, why don't you come?" Haven't eaten yet? I'll make you a hot meal."

"Sister, Aunt Zhang, I haven't eaten yet!"

Qin Jingru said hello first, then handed two catties of pastries to Xiao Dang and said, "Xiao Dang, my aunt bought you two catties of pastries, do you miss my aunt?"

"Thank you, auntie, we all miss you." Xiao Dang said happily.

"I miss my aunt too." Huai Hua said beside her.

Seeing that Qin Jingru still knew how to buy two catties of pastries, Mrs. Zhang also nodded in satisfaction and said:

"You have been in the car for half a day, so take a rest first."

"Thank you, Aunt Zhang." Qin Jingru also breathed a sigh of relief seeing that Aunt Zhang was acting like a normal person. This is usually quite normal, but she never thought that she would suffer from mental illness.

After sitting down, Qin Jingru discovered that the southernmost room had been used as a wall with a large wardrobe, and a single door was installed to get out, and there was an iron lock on the door, so that the southern room was a closed single room.

Seeing Qin Jingru looking towards Nanjian, Qin Huairu said, "From now on, my mother will live in Nanjian, and we will sleep in these two rooms."

"Oh." Qin Jingru replied, and it was not when she was discussing her mental illness in front of Mrs. Zhang. She guessed that she was afraid that Mrs. Zhang would fall ill in the middle of the night, and let her live in it by herself, so as not to hurt others if she fell ill in the middle of the night.

After Qin Jingru had eaten, Qin Huairu said that he would send Xiaodang and Huaihua to school together, and called Qin Jingru out.

On the way back from primary school, Qin Huairu talked about her old lady suffering from mental illness, emphasizing that there is no harm after falling ill. problem.

Qin Jingru said, "That means Aunt Zhang will fall ill if she sees Yi Weidong?"

Qin Huairu sighed and said, "Yes, fortunately, my mother-in-law hardly ever goes out except to go to the bathroom, and Yi Weidong also goes to work every day, so there are not many chances for the two to meet each other."

"I see, I'll pay attention."

After thinking about it, Qin Huairu told the story of He Yuzhu and Lou Xiaoe's marriage. After three turns, Yi Weidong got six of them. Others had two meat dishes. He Yuzhu extravagantly served four of them, large pieces of pork. They are all piled up with vegetable pots, which shows that He Yuzhu's future life will be superior.

It would be great if Qin Jingru married He Yuzhu at that time!Why did this damn girl fall in love with that bastard Xu Damao!

Qin Huairu finally warned: "During the day, you can go to Da Ma's house, or you can find someone else, as long as you don't stay at home."

Qin Jingru is his cousin, so he still needs to take good care of Qin Jingru. It would be bad if the old woman hurt Qin Jingru.I have no choice, otherwise, who wants to face a mental illness that can go crazy at any time!
"Okay! Later, I'll go to Da Ma's house to find a shoe sample and start making shoes."

When Qin Jingru returned to the west wing, she was relieved to see that Aunt Zhang had already returned to the south room. She was still a little scared to face Aunt Zhang alone.Quickly opened my package, took the sewing kit and went out to the backyard to find the second aunt.

The second aunt was also very happy to see Qin Jingru coming over. The two sat on the edge of the bed, chatting about household chores while doing their needlework. My mother tried to find out everything about Qin Jingru's family.

Although there are many brothers and sisters, the second aunt doesn't care. It is rare for any family to have three or two children, and it is normal to have seven or eight brothers and sisters.

Although Qin Jingru was surprised that the second aunt's question was detailed enough, she didn't think too much about it. Isn't chatting just a matter of family affairs?Either talking about Qin Jingru's family or the second aunt boasting about her three sons.

The second aunt waited until the evening after dinner, and said to Liu Guangfu: "You go back to the house first, your brother and I have something to talk about."

Liu Guangfu was stunned for a moment, and suddenly realized: "It's about finding a wife for my brother again. I pick and choose every day. If I say just find a girl, I'm addicted to picking."

The second aunt shouted: "Okay, when you grow up, I will find you a random woman to live with you, that's all right!"

Liu Guangfu was so bullied that he stopped talking and obediently went into the back room.

Liu Guangtian said: "Mom, if you are still the kind of crooked melon and cracked date, you should stop arranging to meet again. How can you live with such an ugly face!"

The second aunt was so angry that she introduced it to her son only after she had a crush on her. Now she complained that the ones she introduced were crooked melons and cracked dates. Introduce the object to Zhang Luo.

The second aunt took a sip of water and said: "It's the aunt Huaihua who mentioned it to you a year ago, and her aunt came back today. I asked about it at noon, and I haven't mentioned my husband's family yet!"

The second uncle was listening to the radio at the table of the Eight Immortals, when he heard Qin Huairu's sister, he frowned and said, "Why did you call me a country girl?"

"What's wrong with the girls in the country? They don't have the squeamishness of the girls in the city. If you marry in, you will have a registered permanent residence in the city. It's no different."

The second aunt herself has a rural household registration, and she married the second uncle Liu Haizhong and went to the city to become a worker's daughter-in-law. Counting up to three generations, who is not a farmer.

Liu Guangtian thought for a while, and recalled that when he was visiting the sleeping positions of Xu Damao and Qin Huairu, he was amazed by Qin Jingru who was unconscious. trouble.

Thinking of this, Liu Guangcai realized that he had unconsciously compared others with Qin Jingru in recent blind dates, and he rejected those who were worse than Qin Jingru. It turned out that Qin Jingru had already entered his heart.

Liu Guangtian asked: "Mom, then Qin Jingru looks okay, but I don't know what kind of personality it is? Don't be ignorant, it's okay to be unreasonable."

Although Qin Jingru has passed the test in appearance, but if he is unreasonable, he can't have it!

The second aunt said: "If that's the case, why should I mention her? I asked about it yesterday. Huaihua's aunt graduated from high school, but she didn't continue to go to school because she had a large family."

Then he said: "In the afternoon, when you come back from get off work early, I will call Qin Jingru to make shoes, and you can talk about it yourself. If you fall in love with me, I will tell her about the match."

Liu Guangtian smiled and said, "Alright, I will ask for leave this afternoon and come back."

Liu Guangtian happily went back to bed and went to work the next day with an absent-minded look. Finally, in the middle of the afternoon, Liu Guangtian spoke to his monitor and rode his bicycle home.

Riding fast along the way, he parked the bicycle in front of the door, calmed his breathing, and pushed the door into his home.

The second aunt was holding the soles of the shoes with Qin Jingru, when she saw Liu Guangtian came back, she deliberately asked:
"Guangtian, why did you come back so early today?"

Liu Guangtian nodded to Qin Jingru as a greeting, and said, "Today's mission is completed, and there is nothing else to do, so I'll be back first."

Liu Guangtian sat down at the table and picked up the kettle and said, "Mom, why is there no hot water?"

"Really? Then I'll go and boil a pot of hot water." The second aunt was carrying a thermos bottle and it was true that there was no hot water, so she turned around and went out to the kitchen.

Qin Jingru and Liu Guangtian also met occasionally before, but they just nodded their friendship and said hello like have you eaten, but they never had a formal conversation.

The two stayed quietly for 2 minutes, and Liu Guangtian asked, "Is your name Qin Jingru?"

"That's right! It's the word for Beijing."

Qin Jingru has been looking for someone to ask how to buy a job, but he is not familiar with the place where he lives and has no acquaintance, so he can just ask Liu Guangtian if there is any way out.

Then he said, "Can you tell me how to get into a rolling mill?"

Liu Guangtian said: "A piece of work in a rolling mill weighs more than ten kilograms, and there are dozens of kilograms. As the saying goes: Men don't work in rolling mills, and women don't work in textile factories. This is heavy work, and it's not suitable for girls."

"Really? But my sister works in the rolling mill?" Qin Jingru asked suspiciously.

Liu Guangtian said: "That's different, your sister is in the same class as your brother-in-law, otherwise she wouldn't even be able to afford food."

In the countryside, there is still private land. If you eat a big pot of rice, you will get work points as long as you go to work. In the city, if you don’t have a job, you will have no income. If you can’t survive, go to the countryside to farm. Qin Huairu has no choice. persist in.

Qin Jingru asked: "Is it easy for someone like me to find a job?"

Before, Qin Jingru only heard about the difficulty of finding a job from Xu Damao and Qin Huairu, but now he has the opportunity to ask Liu Guangtian to hear what's new.

Liu Guangtian frowned and said, "It's very difficult to find a job now. The young people in the street are all going to the countryside to farm. If there are any recruits, they must first meet the needs of the unemployed youth in the city."

Although Qin Jingru knew this was the case, she was still very disappointed. It was so hard to find a job, so the only way to choose was to marry Xu Damao.

It's just that seeing Xu Damao and Qin Huairu wandering around in front of her every day, Qin Jingru's heart has long been disappointed with Xu Damao, so she can only take one step at a time and move in the household registration first.

Liu Guangtian asked, "Do you want to go to the city to eat the planned food?"

"Yeah, who wants to farm in the countryside? You can't even get ten yuan a year." Qin Jingru said with some complaints.

Liu Guangtian began to ask about life in the country, and after the initial formality, the conversation gradually started. Liu Guangtian also got to know Qin Jingru initially, optimistic and cheerful, diligent in doing things, quick in his hands and feet, and he didn't say that he didn't work in the fields at home, and he wasn't that kind Fierce women.

The second aunt listened to the two people talking happily outside, so she didn't go in again. It was not until after get off work that she brought a kettle into the house. Only then did Qin Jingru realize that she had to go back to make dinner.

The second aunt waited for Qin Jingru to leave, and quickly sat down and asked, "Guangtian, what do you think of Aunt Huaihua?"
