Siheyuan diet for men and women
Chapter 319
Chapter 319
Yu Li put down her job and said: "I'll go with you, the condition of the rain is not very good today."
Li Xuewu hasn't told Yu Li about taking care of the rainwater yet, but because Yu Li lives in a house with rainwater, she gets along well with Sha Zhu during this period, so she wants to go and see with Li Xuewu.
"Is it ready to eat? You can go later"
Yu Li waved her hand and said: "Eat well, grandma and the others came back late, so I'll take a bite."
Li Xuewu nodded, put on his overcoat and took Yu Li out the door.
After entering the front yard, Li Xuewu asked Yu Li, "Do you know about the rain?"
Yu Li nodded and said, "I've heard some, but I don't know much."
Li Xuewu stood still, and said to Yu Li: "This time, the one who went on a mission with me has the object of rain, and he died during the mission."
"what?!"
Yu Li looked at Li Xuewu in surprise and asked, "Are you okay?"
"What do you say?"
Hearing Yu Li's nervousness, Li Xuewu couldn't help but feel warm in his heart. This woman's mind is always on her own health.
Yu Li breathed a sigh of relief, knowing that this question was unnecessary.
"Can you not be so risky and bring more people next time?"
"Uh-huh"
Li Xuewu nodded and said: "Listen to you, take a company."
"Fuck you, seriously, no matter how powerful you are alone, you can't beat a group of people, right?"
Li Xuewu nodded formally, and then said: "Brother Zhuzi means to bring back the rainwater. The house over there was bought for Jing Yongjie by Jing Yongjie's parents. The two are not married yet. Brother Zhuzi It’s also because I’m afraid of the rain when I see things and think about others, and I’m too sad.”
Yu Li looked at Li Xuewu and said, "Then clean up the east room. I'll live in the east room. I'll be away from Chun'er for a few days."
"Pull it down!"
Li Xuewu shook his head and said: "I told Brother Zhuzi, you can take care of the rain for him these few days. Anyway, there is nothing else to do in the house after the Chinese New Year. We will talk about it after the New Year."
"As for the place where you live, Brother Zhuzi means that you two go to the big house, and he goes to the Yushui house."
"it is good"
Yu Li agreed very simply, without any hesitation in Li Xuewu's arrangement.
Li Xuewu nodded and said: "Then let's go in and have a look, you talk to Yushui more."
After speaking, he took Yu Li to the middle courtyard.
Seeing that the main room of Shazhu's house was lit and there were still people talking in the room, Li Xuewu lifted the curtain of the door, saw from the door glass that the inside hadn't rested yet, and pushed the door open.
"Xuewu is here"
"Well, I just came back from outside, come and have a look"
Li Xuewu walked in, while Yu Li closed the door behind him.
There are not only two silly brothers and sisters in the room, but also the uncle, mother, and Qin Huairu.
It seemed that they had been here for quite a while, and Da Ma and Qin Huairu were sitting around He Yushui.
Although the three families are not related by blood, the three families have been neighbors for many years.
Qin Huairu came late and didn't see He Daqing leave, but the brother and sister Shazhu grew up pointing to the uncle and the old lady in the backyard to take care of them.
Otherwise, how could a brat like Sha Zhu bring a younger sister?
The first mother still has a deep affection for Yushui, and later Qin Huairu spent a lot of time with Yushui because of her neighbor relationship.
Coupled with the care of Shazhu later, Qin Huairu got along very well with Yushui.
Seeing that Qin Huairu was also there, Yu Li couldn't help but froze for a moment, then eased up, walked to the edge of the rainwater and asked softly, "Have you eaten dinner for tonight? Do you want to eat? I'll make it for you."
Silly Zhu stood aside and said: "Don't just take two bites and leave your job."
Seeing the two of them coming in, Yu Shui kept looking at Li Xuewu, with remorse and sadness in his eyes.
Maybe this is regret teaching her husband and son-in-law to seek a title.
Li Xuewu stood at the door, looked at Yushui, and said, "I am ashamed of you both in public and in private. It is because I did not lead the team well. If you have any demands, I will try my best to meet them."
There were still tears in Yushui's eyes, and even more tears fell down when he heard Li Xuewu's words.
"I have nothing to ask"
Replying to Li Xuewu, Yushui lowered his head, looked at his hands and said, "I didn't let him fight for the deputy director, but he went anyway. I said he seemed to stop him from making progress. Who can blame now?" .
Li Xuewu looked at Sha Zhu and asked, "When is the funeral scheduled?"
Silly Zhu glanced at the rain, and then replied: "Tomorrow, tomorrow morning".
"So early?"
Li Xuewu frowned and said something, then asked: "How did the Jing family arrange it?"
Sha Zhu put his hands in his trouser pockets, nodded his arms and said: "The public asked for the opinion of Jing Yongjie's father, saying that he doesn't want his son to suffer any more, and wants to be buried as soon as possible."
"Is there no ceremony?"
Although it was simple at this time, Li Xuewu had already reported to Zheng Fuhua his confirmation of Jing Yongjie's sacrifice. Logically speaking, it shouldn't be so simple.
Sha Zhu shook his head and said: "Not on business, but on my own family, Jing Yongjie has been transferred back home."
Li Xuewu nodded and asked, "How is the arrangement here?"
Perhaps it was Zheng Fuhua who told Father Jing about the actual situation of the trip to the Northeast, or the Jing family's usual low profile, which meant that everything was kept simple.
Sha Zhu shook his head again and said, "I didn't say anything."
Hearing this, Li Xuewu frowned again, looked at He Yushui, and found that Yushui was crying even more now.
Seeing Li Xuewu frowning, Shazhu also frowned and said: "I went to collect the rainwater, but Jing Yongjie's mother didn't say anything, so she asked for the key to the rainwater, saying that she was picking up the belongings at night."
Yu Li took Yushui's hand, went to the washbasin at the door, poured hot water through it, and used a towel to help Yushui wipe away her tears.
Qin Huairu stood up and poured a glass of warm water, and drank it with the help of the rain.
Hearing what Shazhu said at this moment, the uncle sat on the bench, leaned on his knees and sighed.
"Are you going tomorrow?"
Hearing Li Xuewu's question, Silly Zhu looked at his sister Yushui, and said, "I'm going to go there in a while. I'll keep watch overnight, and I'll come out with her spirit tomorrow, but I'm worried about Yushui's appearance."
In fact, Shazhu also knew that what Li Xuewu asked was whether the rain would go or not.
Yushui wiped away his tears and said, "It's okay, bro, I'll go tomorrow morning, I'll see him off...".
I couldn't continue talking until here, my throat was choked and uncomfortable.
Li Xuewu said to Shazhu: "Tomorrow morning, take my car and go back together."
Silly Zhu looked at Li Xuewu, knowing that there was something in his words, and then looked at his sister.
He Yushui also raised his head to look at Li Xuewu.
"We are all in the same courtyard. The uncle is here too. That's all I can do. Your brother has to go to work here. Sister-in-law Yu Li will take care of you during this time."
Seeing the tears on He Yushui's face, Li Xuewu continued: "Humbleness is hard and the truth is true. Fate is bound to be helpless. We all hope that you can cheer up as soon as possible. If there is anything in the future, you can ask your brother to find me. Can you help me?" I will definitely help."
After speaking to He Yushui, Li Xuewu turned his head and said to Shazhu: "You have a clear conscience, just follow the etiquette, don't get angry and annoy you, it won't make sense."
Seeing that Li Xuewu was about to leave, the uncle also stood up and said: "Xuewu is right, don't think about those messy things, let's just be polite, and you should keep vigil at night."
Li Xuewu nodded and left, leaving Yu Li to take care of Yushui.
Seeing Li Xuewu coming out, Sha Zhu and the uncle also came out, and the three of them stood in the courtyard and sighed.
Sha Zhu nodded to Li Xuewu and said: "Then you will work hard tomorrow."
Li Xuewu shook his head and said, "They're all buddies. Don't talk about this, I should go both public and private, and I will go to the branch office as well."
"Okay, let Xuewu go back and rest, Zhuzi, you should go too, don't let people say anything, did you burn the paper?"
Sha Zhu nodded and said: "I borrowed money from the Sun family and typed two hundred pieces."
Responding to the old man's words, Sha Zhu turned his head to Li Xuewu and said, "I left one hundred sheets for the rain, remember to bring them tomorrow."
Li Xuewu nodded, indicating that he understood.
After seeing off Silly Zhu, Li Xuewu greeted the uncle and turned back to the backyard.
As soon as he reached the Moon Gate, Qin Huairu followed up from behind and called Li Xuewu.
"Learning martial arts"
Li Xuewu looked back and asked, "What's wrong?"
"Tell you something"
After answering, Qin Huairu followed Li Xuewu back to the backyard.
As soon as she entered the door, Qin Huairu sized up Li Xuewu for a while, and then replied, "Are you okay?"
Li Xuewu smiled and said: "It's okay, the two groups are leading the action, and Han Zhan is with him."
Qin Huairu breathed a sigh of relief and said, "The letter I heard from the aunt yesterday morning scared me half to death."
The waiter Li Xuewu took off his outer coat, shook it and hung it in the cloakroom.
"The last time I came here, I looked at it in a daze, and my eyes were always fixed on your police uniform, alas"
Seeing Li Xuewu sitting on the sofa, he went to the bathroom to fetch hot water, came out with a hot towel and handed it to Li Xuewu, saying: "It's so pitiful, I don't know whether to say it's regrettable or lucky." ".
Li Xuewu took a hot towel and applied it to his face, then lay on the back of the sofa with his head up.
Seeing that Li Xuewu didn't speak, Qin Huairu turned around and went to the bathroom to take out the basin and put it at Li Xuewu's feet.
While helping Li Xuewu take off his socks, he said, "Is this case almost over? There won't be any danger, right?"
Feeling the temperature of his feet stepping into the hot water, he stiffened and did not take it out. He took off the towel on his face and wiped his face and neck.
"Who can say for sure, it's too involved."
Qin Huairu rolled up Li Xuewu's trouser legs, stood up, took the towel in Li Xuewu's hand, and went to the bathroom.
"It's not right to see the attitude of the leaders today"
"Um"
Li Xuewu agreed, and continued to rest on the back of the sofa.
Qin Huairu came out again with a hot towel, carefully spread it on Li Xuewu's face, and asked softly, "Is it hot?"
"Well, okay"
Hearing Li Xuewu say yes, Qin Huairu spread out the towel to cover Li Xuewu's entire face, stood behind Li Xuewu and pinched Li Xuewu's head with his fingers.
"Director Yang looked quite satisfied, and Deputy Director Li also talked about it, but he still had a gun in his words, thanks to Director Xu and Director Xu who answered the conversation quickly."
"The other leaders didn't say anything. Director Zhang even said that he would come over to select someone, but Fu Bin saw that his face was not right, so he left after eating."
He told Li Xuewu about the resumption of business of the guest house in the factory today, and then put his hand on Li Xuewu's shoulder and squeezed it.
"Did anyone ask you?"
"No"
Qin Huairu pinched his shoulders for a while, touched the towel on Li Xuewu's face, saw that it was cold, took it out again, and applied it again.
"Who would pay attention to such a small person like me? Besides, there are so many people in the guest house, why should they pay attention to me?"
While speaking, he helped Li Xuewu pinch his cervical spine, and said: "There is a director Xu in the institute, it's fine."
Intermittently, Qin Huairu reported some things that happened in the rolling mill during the days when Li Xuewu was away.
Because Qin Huairu is now a cadre of an office, and a cadre of a leisurely and comfortable guest house, Qin Huairu has also heard a lot of private news during his work contacts.
The women in the office are like this, they have to discuss something if they have something to do.
After rubbing the cervical spine, he helped Li Xuewu wipe his neck and arms, put the towel and went back to the living room to help Li Xuewu pinch his feet.
Li Xuewu lay on the sofa and thought for a while and said: "Don't inquire about the affairs in the agency, try to avoid such discussions."
He looked up at Qin Huairu and said, "I don't need you to help me find out the news. The news that can reach my ears through you is already outdated. You just need to do a good job in the guest house."
Qin Huairu's hand paused, then nodded and continued to pinch.
"understood"
"Familiar with and master the guest house as soon as possible, after the next year, I will transfer Xu Ning away after the next year, you have to be able to hold it"
Li Xuewu lay back tiredly again.
"So fast?"
"Um"
Li Xuewu signaled that it was all right, put his feet back and stood up.
"I'll give you another month to master the guest house"
"Can I do it? Not all the guest houses are nice to me"
Li Xuewu looked into Qin Huairu's eyes and said: "You don't have to use those who are good with you. You want to use those who are obedient. If you are not obedient, find a reason to send them back to the service office, including those who came with you. Give both kindness and strength, don't engage in human relationship management, as time goes by, the tail will not be lost."
Qin Huairu nodded, poured out the footwashing water, and took Li Xuewu's pajamas out to help Li Xuewu change.
The changed clothes helped to hang up again.
He took off Li Xuewu's gun and put it next to the pillow, and said to Li Xuewu who was on the kang, "Tomorrow the rolling mill is on holiday, and you still have to go to work?"
Li Xuewu lay on the pillow, closed his eyes and said, "Well, go to the branch office and try this case."
Touching Li Xuewu's forehead, Qin Huairu sat aside and said, "Pay attention to your body, Yu Li takes care of the rain, what about your New Year's Eve dinner?"
Li Xuewu thought for a while and said: "Let Brother Zhuzi come over and take the spoon."
"Let's live together. I bought noodles. Silly Zhu said that he bought meat and picked up the old lady in the backyard."
Li Xuewu touched Qin Huairu's hand on his forehead, and said: "Tomorrow, you can make a fuss. I heard that San'er's family is coming, and Xiaoyan'er and his wife will also come. Let's have dinner in the inverted room. The room is big, and you can sit down." open".
"Um"
Qin Huairu agreed, and said, "Will I call Jingru here after the next year?"
Li Xuewu looked up and asked, "What's wrong?"
"It's an old lady"
Looking down at Li Xuewu's eyes, he said: "Silly Zhu told the old lady in the backyard that we should celebrate the New Year together, and the old lady urged him to find a wife quickly. Didn't this mention it again? I have written letters to my family, but But it caught up with the rain again."
"Do you have a place to put her?"
Knowing that Li Xuewu doesn't want to see his sister, maybe Li Xuewu heard something when he sneaked away last time.
"I'll live in my house after the next year, and my family will send me a letter about her, I don't care what happens"
"Let's figure it out, it would be best if we can succeed with Zhuzi."
"Learning martial arts..."
"Don't talk"
Li Xuewu closed his eyes and said, "You know what's going on in the rolling mill, and you also know how many people are waiting to be arranged at the service office, let alone the guest house, so don't make trouble for yourself."
"That……"
"The recycle bin is too busy. Besides, do you think girls can do that job?"
Leaning on Li Xuewu's body, Qin Huairu discussed: "You see, Xiao Yan'er and Yu Li are also doing it, she has quick hands and feet, and she can speak well."
"Look at her attitude, you have seen it too, there is no shortage of people"
"it is good"
After Li Xuewu let go, Qin Huairu helped Li Xuewu cover the quilt and prepared to go back.
Li Xuewu closed his eyes and said: "I asked Wen San'er to leave a car for you. It will make commuting easier, and I will go to the warehouse to get it tomorrow."
"Really?"
Seeing Li Xuewu ignoring him, Qin Huairu walked to the kang in surprise, opened Li Xuewu's eyes and asked, "Is it true?"
"You're lying if you don't let me sleep anymore"
"Well"
With a blushing face, Qin Huairu raised her head and leaned into Li Xuewu's ear and said, "I reserved a room for you on the third floor of the guest house."
After saying this, Qin Huairu turned around and left.
Hearing the sound of closing the door, Li Xuewu murmured, "You girls have failed in school" and fell asleep.
Qin Huairu did not dare to stay overnight at Li Xuewu's house, one was the psychological shadow of last time, and the other was the image.
Although Qin Huairu doesn't have much image in Li Xuewu's family, outside he is already someone who can talk in the courtyard.
Since becoming a cadre at the unit level, Qin Huairu herself can feel the changes in the attitudes of the people in the courtyard and the unit towards her.
Even her own mother-in-law knows not to gossip outside and save face for herself, so Qin Huairu can't do anything reckless in the courtyard.
Qin Huairu knew that her situation was different from Yu Li's. Yu Li's life was just like this in the courtyard, busy, cleaning up in name, who can tell what.
Her father-in-law, mother-in-law, and husband are all virtuous. For the sake of her family and herself, Yu Li pretended not to see it when she saw it.
I wish there would be more excitement at their house, this is not better than a big show.
But the situation of Qin Huairu's family is different. She still has a son and a daughter. As Li Xuewu said before, she has to think about the future of the children.
That's why Qin Huairu reserved a room for Li Xuewu in the guest house and never stayed in the backyard.
As soon as she entered the room, she saw her mother-in-law washing the feet of the children of Banggan, and the children also looked at Qin Huairu.
"How's the rain?"
Jia Zhang went back to the house with Sophora japonica in her arms, Qin Huairu stretched out her arms to hug Xiao Dang and followed into the back room.
"What else can I do? As soon as Silly Zhu went to pick her up, the other side let her back. Even if she is engaged, she is not married yet, so she can still take care of her."
Xiao Dang took off the headbands of the two shofar braids and put them under the pillow, saying, "I saw Aunt Yushui crying."
"I saw it too"
Seeing what her sister said, Huaihua followed suit.
Qin Huairu helped her mother-in-law tuck the two children into the bed, and told the two children: "Don't go to the silly uncle's house to make trouble, and don't talk to Aunt Yushui about crying."
"understood"
After settling down the two children, Qin Huairu continued to say to her mother-in-law: "Silly Zhu went to watch the night tonight, and Yu Li will take care of the rainwater."
"Hey! She is diligent~"
"No way, it was arranged by Li Xuewu"
Qin Huairu followed her mother-in-law out of the back room, and let her mother-in-law wash the feet of the stick, while she helped make the bed for the stick.
"Silly column has been open for a year, but there is no class. Li Xuewu asked Yu Li to take care of the rainwater."
Hearing that Yu Li was arranged by Li Xuewu, Jia Zhang stopped talking about Yu Li.
In fact, she didn't want to talk about Li Xuewu. She was very afraid of Li Xuewu now. Others only listened to Li Xuewu's good words, and all they talked about was Li Xuewu's prestige.
But Jia Zhang went to inquire about Li Xuewu's ruthlessness, so is there a good thing to say?
Now it is rumored on the street that Li Erbalu is almost a ruthless person who cannibalizes human flesh, especially when he heard the nickname of Li Erbalu, it almost scared Jia Zhang to pee.
If it weren't for the support of her daughter-in-law here, Jia Zhang would have wanted to explain to Li Xuewu that she didn't pass on the name.
This Li Erba is so sick now that he twists people's heads, shoots and kills people, and cleans up the punks on the street crying for their father and mother to do labor.
Mrs. Jia Zhang just eats hard but not soft, so he is afraid of people like Li Xuewu.
Why!I will not reason with you, nor will I ink with you. If you refuse to accept it, I will shoot you in the head.
"We've brought back the rainwater, why is Silly Zhu going to watch the night?"
Don't talk about Li Xuewu, you can always talk about silly Zhu.
"He's really stupid. He's just throwing out the rain."
Qin Huairu glanced at her mother-in-law, and said: "They are all engaged, so the rain doesn't have to go, why don't people go here, the uncle also said that they should go."
"Cut~~"
Mrs. Jia Zhang curled her lips when she heard the old man, and then said: "It's just a cat crying and a mouse pretending to be merciful. If you want me to say, their family just didn't have such a life. At that time, Yushui was engaged, and they didn't even invite me here. Please, that object has never come."
"Isn't the rainwater doing it by itself?"
Qin Huairu also knew about the situation of Yushui and Jing Yongjie. It was introduced by Yushui's colleague in the textile factory, and the two got married.
"It was Jing Yongjie's mother who disagreed with the two, but didn't she agree later?"
Jiazhang said with hanging eyes: "Remember, the woman has to be in charge of this house at all times, and you can judge people accurately."
While talking, after washing Banggen's feet, he asked Banggen to pull his shoes and jump onto the bed by himself, and continued to say to Qin Huairu, "Grandma Yushui was here last time, and I saw her, so she is not a good person to get along with. How tricky, there is no mother, and there is a father who is not in tune, and his face is like a donkey."
Seeing her mother-in-law talking about others, Qin Huairu didn't bother to take the slap in the face. This is the crow standing on the pig, only seeing that others are black, but not seeing any virtue in herself.
Covering Bang Geng with a quilt, Bang Geng took Qin Huairu's hand and asked, "Mom, is Uncle Wu back?"
"I'm back. I'm resting in the backyard. I just came back from your Uncle Wu's house. I talked about the guest house for a while."
Pulling her son's hand into the bed, Qin Huairu raised her head and said to her mother-in-law: "Now Li Xuewu is the leader of the sub-bureau, and he has to go to Jing's house on behalf of the public tomorrow morning, saying that he will go with the rain tomorrow morning."
"What the hell?"
Mrs. Jia Zhang just went outside to pour water for washing her feet, and when she entered the house, she heard her daughter-in-law say who the leader of the sub-bureau was Li Xuewu, so she couldn't help asking in surprise.
"What branch? Branch factory?"
Qin Huairu said while untying her hair: "It's the branch office. The people from the police office seem to have been promoted to the branch office to become the deputy director. The unit is across the street in Daxing Hutong. I also heard that the guest house resumed business today." What the leader said at the dinner table."
"Scared! Tsk tsk tsk~"
Jia Zhang put the basin in his hand on the shelf, looked at Qin Huairu and asked, "How big an official is that? What is the rank of the deputy? He quit the rolling mill?"
Qin Huairu loosened her hair, hung the headband on her hand, and said, "Why do you ask how old you are? Anyway, you are quite the boss, better than the section chief. They had dinner at noon and said what are the two lines? The rolling mill is here. They are doing it, and the sub-bureau is also doing it."
Mrs. Jia Zhang couldn't help saying: "He just passed the new year, and he has only been on shift for a few days now. He can really toss."
Qin Huairu fetched hot water to wash his feet, sat on the edge of the kang and said, "You can do it just by tossing around. Didn't you see how many years of service he has? Didn't you see that people in the Northeast have put their lives there?"
"Not always!"
Jiazhang took off his coat and got into bed, pulled the quilt for the two sleeping children and said: "He is the leader, so there is no need to rush ahead, and death is not death."
Qin Huairu's feet were hot, but her back was cold. She grabbed the padded jacket from the kang and put it on her back, shivering involuntarily.
"It happened a few years ago. Someone shot him in the arm. He was shot through from the top to the bottom. He was so lucky to save his life. You think he is relaxed. He sleeps with a gun next to his pillow."
"tsk tsk"
Lying on the kang, Jia Zhang said: "We don't envy his life. It's good to stop and go, but we don't dare to be like him. How is this different from the braided army whose head was stuck on the waistband of the trousers earlier."
"Don't go out and mess around, it's a big difference, who is he doing it for? Isn't it for the safety of the street, can it be the same as the whip army you saw?"
Seeing Qin Huairu talking about the street, Jia Zhang asked: "Is it true what was reported on the street? They said that Li Xuewu arrested two or three hundred people and beat them on the beams of the house. Many of them would lose their heads if they were recruited." of".
Qin Huairu tilted her head and looked at her mother-in-law and said, "Didn't you say you can't gossip on the street?"
Jia Zhang grinned and said, "Didn't you tell the old lady from the Shen family next door when the concierge was on duty? I didn't say it, just listened to it."
"Don't talk nonsense, there is no one hanging from the roof, the street judge, how many houses and beams there are!"
"She said, she only recruited when she was hanging from above."
"pure bullshit"
Qin Huairu took a foot wipe and wiped her feet, and said: "Old lady Shen can't get out of the house, where can I know that there are no hangings on the hanging room, the wind is like rain, besides, even if the hanging beams are on, It can still be seen."
"Too"
Jia Zhang has also thought about Wei'er now, and got second-hand news about his feelings.
Qin Huairu took the footwashing water and poured it into the bucket at the door, went back to the back room, took off her coat and got on the kang.
"There are so many people arrested, but some of them made mistakes. Most of the others are street bastards. Those are the people who work on the street these days."
"What I said, why did it spread so wickedly!"
Jia Zhang turned her body and looked at Qin Huairu who was pulling the light rope, and said: "They said that Li Xuewu took a lot of things from those people, and they all went to the West Courtyard. Do you think this is true?"
Afraid that Qin Huairu would not believe it, Jia Zhang supported her body and said, "That day I saw Wen San'er and the others using a tricycle to dump things in the west courtyard."
"what"
Qin Huairu said angrily, "Didn't you hear what Da Ma said, those are all confiscated, and the streets and police offices entrusted them to sell them here, in order to make up for those who lost their things."
"Hey what can I tell her"
Qin Huairu was too lazy to talk to her mother-in-law, she only listened to small talk, and refused to listen to serious talk.
"Didn't the third master just receive the compensation, otherwise he would be willing to buy another car? And the old seven in the hall"
Hearing Qin Huairu's words, Jia Zhang said: "I said, why did Yan Laokouer buy a car again, hey, just be on guard."
Qin Huairu knew that her mother-in-law was talking about the third master adding anti-theft measures to the car.
In order not to lose his beloved car again, the third uncle pushed the car into the house every day and never dared to put it under the window again, otherwise he would not be able to sleep all night, so he would take a look at it later.
This matter and the courtyard have become a daily bustle, comparable to Zhao Si'er who carried a bicycle upstairs to find his hometown and elder.
Qin Huairu ignored her nagging mother-in-law and fell asleep on her side.
Li Xuewu was woken up by the uncle who came to the room in the morning, and looked at his watch, it was only after five o'clock.
"Learning martial arts, it's time to get up, the Jing family should be more active at six o'clock"
"Hey, I see"
Only old people like a grandpa in the courtyard understand this, so Li Xuewu got up and began to dress and wash his face.
When Li Xuewu finished packing and left, he saw that the lights at Shazhu's house were on, the lights at Uncle's house were on, and even the lights at Qin Huairu's house were on.
"Why do you get up so early?"
Seeing Qin Huairu coming out of the house, Li Xuewu tightened his coat and asked.
"Help the rain to clean up, the meal that the aunt got up early, can you take a bite?"
Li Xuewu shook his head and said: "I got up too early, I have no appetite, let's talk about it when I come back."
Qin Huairu carried two baskets in his hands and placed them on the table in front of Shazhu's house.
Li Xuewu looked at it, and saw that there were two cloth bags and a knife burning paper.
"Are you sending it too?"
Qin Huairu looked at Li Xuewu and said, "By virtue of Silly Zhu, the two pockets his grandma sewed last night were filled with fried rice and beans."
While talking, the first mother came out of the house, also carrying two bags in her hand and put them in Qin Huairu's basket.
The uncle came out of the hut in Yushui, carrying two bundles of burning paper in his hand, and took out a bundle and put it in the basket.
"Last night I typed another two hundred cards, and brought out thirty for you. This stack is yours, remember it."
"Thank you, my lord"
Li Xuewu nodded and thanked him. He originally planned to write 5 yuan for the ceremony if he opened the account, but now that the old man thinks about it, it looks a lot better.
Although they went on behalf of the public, it was the Jing family's own business after all, so they all attended according to the etiquette of the public.
The uncle waved his hand and signaled: "Yu Li got up in the morning and boiled water, you go and add water, I will clean it up for you."
Li Xuewu nodded and went to fetch water from the sitting room.
When I entered the inverted room, I saw Yu Li scooping water into the bucket.
"How long ago?"
Seeing Li Xuewu coming in, Yu Li put the ladle in her hand on the pot and said softly, "Biaozi and the others are still asleep, please keep your voice down."
Li Xuewu walked out carrying the bucket, and Yu Li followed behind and said, "I filled the first bucket, this is the second bucket, it should be enough."
Entered the garage, picked up the bucket and added it in, twisted the lid and fastened the machine cover.
Yu Li took the bucket and said: "When the spirit comes out, stand beside or behind, don't stand on the road, and don't go in front."
Seeing Yu Li's serious expression, Li Xuewu frowned and asked, "Are you talking so much?"
After tidying up Li Xuewu's clothes, he said: "After all, he died unexpectedly. If there is anything to say, well, remember not to go home directly. They will take the rainwater and find a restaurant on the road to have breakfast before returning."
Li Xuewu still knew this, nodded his head and said: "You can go back to sleep after we leave later."
"understood"
He patted Li Xuewu's coat, agreed and walked back.
When Li Xuewu drove the car to the gate of the west courtyard, the uncle and others had already brought the basket and burnt paper.
Yu Shui also stood beside Da Ma, listening to Da Ma's explanation.
Black padded jacket, black trousers, black padded shoes, all in black except for a white hairpin pinned to his head.
The uncle and Qin Huairu put the basket and burnt paper in the rear cockpit, and the uncle led He Yushui to the side co-pilot.
Seeing that He Yushui stopped crying now, but his eyes were swollen and his face was white.
Looking at his watch, Li Xuewu waved with the uncle and the others and drove out of the west courtyard.
The Jing family is not close to here, they live near the Fuxing Gate in Xicheng, and Li Xuewu drove for more than 20 minutes.
Fortunately, there were not many vehicles on the road at this time, otherwise we would not be able to reach anything.
Along the way, Li Xuewu didn't say anything to Yushui. What Yushui needs now is not comfort, but silence.
When we arrived at the alley where Jing's house was located, we saw Beixinqiao's Tricycle parked by the side of the road, and Li Xuewu pulled over the car too.
Li Xuewu jumped out of the car first, shook hands with the head of the family who came out, and said his identity. The head of the house saluted Li Xuewu, and Li Xuewu also bowed slightly in return.
Yu Shui was sitting in the car at the moment, looking at the whiteness in the yard, and cried.
Li Xuewu looked back, and asked a question to the head of the house, the head of the house looked a little embarrassed, turned around and walked quickly into the courtyard.
Xu Shi heard the sound of the car, Duan Youting and Shen Fang came out from the courtyard.
The three of them didn't speak, and lit cigarettes with each other.
Li Xuewu picked up the things he brought from the rear cockpit and put them by the side of the car, but didn't go inside because the rain was still on the car at the moment.
It wasn't that the rain didn't want to go down, nor was it because of his health, but because he didn't know whether the Jing family would let him in or not, and in what capacity.
Li Xuewu said the same thing to the host who greeted the guests just now. The host didn't dare to make decisions, so he went back to the courtyard to ask for instructions.
Because he brought the rainwater, you have to wait for the rainwater to settle down before you can go in. You can't just leave the rainwater here alone and wait.
Duan Youting and Shen Fang also saw what Li Xuewu meant, so they stood by Li Xuewu and smoked without saying anything.
After waiting for a few minutes, a middle-aged woman came out of the courtyard led by the head of the family, followed by two young women. The three of them were not wearing filial piety, but were all in black.
The middle-aged woman is Jing Yongjie's mother, and the two young women should be Jing Yongjie's sister-in-law, and one of them is still holding a filial cloth.
The middle-aged woman and her two daughters-in-law first gave Li Xuewu a lady's salute according to the introduction of the hostess, and Li Xuewu bowed slightly to express his condolences.
The middle-aged woman got up and went to the side of the car, shouting: "Rain! Woooooo".
When Yushui saw the three people come out, he stood by the car and waited, and when he heard the crying, he also started crying.
"mom!"
Jing Yongjie's mother hugged He Yushui and began to cry, and He Yushui also hugged Jing's mother and cried loudly.
After crying for a while, the head of the family persuaded: "Auntie's condolences, so as not to miss the next hour."
Jing Yongjie's two sister-in-laws also persuaded him for a while, and then Jing's mother held He Yushui's face and said, "It's not that mom is cruel, it's that mom doesn't want to delay you."
"mom!"
Seeing Yushui crying sadly, Mother Jing hugged He Yushui's head again and cried: "Mom is ruthless now, it's for your kindness, remember, I will send Xiaojie this trip, and you will have nothing to do with our family when you come back Now, don't call me mom anymore."
"Woooooo~"
"Do you understand?"
No matter how Jing's mother asked, He Yushui just cried. Jing's mother took the filial piety hat handed over by her daughter-in-law and began to wear filial piety for He Yushui.
Even though the mother-in-law looked down on Yushui's family and was so picky about Yushui in the past, but He Yushui was able to come today, and He Yushui's brother stayed there all night last night, even the most hard-hearted people were softened .
Jing's mother was also reluctant to let her son go out like this, so she agreed to He Yushui's decision.
He Yushui is benevolent and righteous, and Jing's mother can't lose her heart, so she told He Yushui outside the door, and the fate will be broken immediately after sending this off.
Seeing that He Yushui was dragged in by two sister-in-laws, Li Xuewu finished smoking the cigarette in his hand before entering the yard with the burnt paper he brought.
The mourning hall was set up in the yard. Li Xuewu put the burnt paper in his hand on the side table, bowed before Jing Yongjie's mourning, and helped Jing Yongjie's elder brother and several children who came forward to return the salute. Child, help the female relatives who are saluting.
After saying his condolences, Li Xuewu left the mourning hall.
Shen Fang gestured to Li Xuewu for the room on the side, and said, "The accounting table is placed in that room."
Li Xuewu nodded and walked into the wing room, "Colleague Li Xuewu, 5 yuan for the ceremony."
The account writer raised his head and looked at Li Xuewu. It was rare to see such a scene of Dianyi. He asked Li Xuewu's handwriting and wrote it on it.
Putting down the five yuan in his hand, he turned and left the house.
In fact, it’s not time to write the accounts yet. It should be the guests who come back from the funeral to write the accounts. However, some guests may leave after the funeral, so the account table will be paid first.
When he came out, he saw Shen Fang and Duan Youting talking with Zheng Fuhua, and Jing Yongjie's father was standing beside him.
Seeing Li Xuewu approaching, Father Jing saluted Li Xuewu, and Li Xuewu also returned a salute.
Sijiu City is like this, with many etiquettes. People from all over the world came to Sijiu City to settle down, and they brought in their customs and habits.
After hundreds of years of blending, no one in the old Lier in Sijiu City can understand it now, but the common people are mostly fools looking at the boundary wall during the New Year.
So now with the changes of the times, various customs that fit the reality have appeared.
(End of this chapter)
Yu Li put down her job and said: "I'll go with you, the condition of the rain is not very good today."
Li Xuewu hasn't told Yu Li about taking care of the rainwater yet, but because Yu Li lives in a house with rainwater, she gets along well with Sha Zhu during this period, so she wants to go and see with Li Xuewu.
"Is it ready to eat? You can go later"
Yu Li waved her hand and said: "Eat well, grandma and the others came back late, so I'll take a bite."
Li Xuewu nodded, put on his overcoat and took Yu Li out the door.
After entering the front yard, Li Xuewu asked Yu Li, "Do you know about the rain?"
Yu Li nodded and said, "I've heard some, but I don't know much."
Li Xuewu stood still, and said to Yu Li: "This time, the one who went on a mission with me has the object of rain, and he died during the mission."
"what?!"
Yu Li looked at Li Xuewu in surprise and asked, "Are you okay?"
"What do you say?"
Hearing Yu Li's nervousness, Li Xuewu couldn't help but feel warm in his heart. This woman's mind is always on her own health.
Yu Li breathed a sigh of relief, knowing that this question was unnecessary.
"Can you not be so risky and bring more people next time?"
"Uh-huh"
Li Xuewu nodded and said: "Listen to you, take a company."
"Fuck you, seriously, no matter how powerful you are alone, you can't beat a group of people, right?"
Li Xuewu nodded formally, and then said: "Brother Zhuzi means to bring back the rainwater. The house over there was bought for Jing Yongjie by Jing Yongjie's parents. The two are not married yet. Brother Zhuzi It’s also because I’m afraid of the rain when I see things and think about others, and I’m too sad.”
Yu Li looked at Li Xuewu and said, "Then clean up the east room. I'll live in the east room. I'll be away from Chun'er for a few days."
"Pull it down!"
Li Xuewu shook his head and said: "I told Brother Zhuzi, you can take care of the rain for him these few days. Anyway, there is nothing else to do in the house after the Chinese New Year. We will talk about it after the New Year."
"As for the place where you live, Brother Zhuzi means that you two go to the big house, and he goes to the Yushui house."
"it is good"
Yu Li agreed very simply, without any hesitation in Li Xuewu's arrangement.
Li Xuewu nodded and said: "Then let's go in and have a look, you talk to Yushui more."
After speaking, he took Yu Li to the middle courtyard.
Seeing that the main room of Shazhu's house was lit and there were still people talking in the room, Li Xuewu lifted the curtain of the door, saw from the door glass that the inside hadn't rested yet, and pushed the door open.
"Xuewu is here"
"Well, I just came back from outside, come and have a look"
Li Xuewu walked in, while Yu Li closed the door behind him.
There are not only two silly brothers and sisters in the room, but also the uncle, mother, and Qin Huairu.
It seemed that they had been here for quite a while, and Da Ma and Qin Huairu were sitting around He Yushui.
Although the three families are not related by blood, the three families have been neighbors for many years.
Qin Huairu came late and didn't see He Daqing leave, but the brother and sister Shazhu grew up pointing to the uncle and the old lady in the backyard to take care of them.
Otherwise, how could a brat like Sha Zhu bring a younger sister?
The first mother still has a deep affection for Yushui, and later Qin Huairu spent a lot of time with Yushui because of her neighbor relationship.
Coupled with the care of Shazhu later, Qin Huairu got along very well with Yushui.
Seeing that Qin Huairu was also there, Yu Li couldn't help but froze for a moment, then eased up, walked to the edge of the rainwater and asked softly, "Have you eaten dinner for tonight? Do you want to eat? I'll make it for you."
Silly Zhu stood aside and said: "Don't just take two bites and leave your job."
Seeing the two of them coming in, Yu Shui kept looking at Li Xuewu, with remorse and sadness in his eyes.
Maybe this is regret teaching her husband and son-in-law to seek a title.
Li Xuewu stood at the door, looked at Yushui, and said, "I am ashamed of you both in public and in private. It is because I did not lead the team well. If you have any demands, I will try my best to meet them."
There were still tears in Yushui's eyes, and even more tears fell down when he heard Li Xuewu's words.
"I have nothing to ask"
Replying to Li Xuewu, Yushui lowered his head, looked at his hands and said, "I didn't let him fight for the deputy director, but he went anyway. I said he seemed to stop him from making progress. Who can blame now?" .
Li Xuewu looked at Sha Zhu and asked, "When is the funeral scheduled?"
Silly Zhu glanced at the rain, and then replied: "Tomorrow, tomorrow morning".
"So early?"
Li Xuewu frowned and said something, then asked: "How did the Jing family arrange it?"
Sha Zhu put his hands in his trouser pockets, nodded his arms and said: "The public asked for the opinion of Jing Yongjie's father, saying that he doesn't want his son to suffer any more, and wants to be buried as soon as possible."
"Is there no ceremony?"
Although it was simple at this time, Li Xuewu had already reported to Zheng Fuhua his confirmation of Jing Yongjie's sacrifice. Logically speaking, it shouldn't be so simple.
Sha Zhu shook his head and said: "Not on business, but on my own family, Jing Yongjie has been transferred back home."
Li Xuewu nodded and asked, "How is the arrangement here?"
Perhaps it was Zheng Fuhua who told Father Jing about the actual situation of the trip to the Northeast, or the Jing family's usual low profile, which meant that everything was kept simple.
Sha Zhu shook his head again and said, "I didn't say anything."
Hearing this, Li Xuewu frowned again, looked at He Yushui, and found that Yushui was crying even more now.
Seeing Li Xuewu frowning, Shazhu also frowned and said: "I went to collect the rainwater, but Jing Yongjie's mother didn't say anything, so she asked for the key to the rainwater, saying that she was picking up the belongings at night."
Yu Li took Yushui's hand, went to the washbasin at the door, poured hot water through it, and used a towel to help Yushui wipe away her tears.
Qin Huairu stood up and poured a glass of warm water, and drank it with the help of the rain.
Hearing what Shazhu said at this moment, the uncle sat on the bench, leaned on his knees and sighed.
"Are you going tomorrow?"
Hearing Li Xuewu's question, Silly Zhu looked at his sister Yushui, and said, "I'm going to go there in a while. I'll keep watch overnight, and I'll come out with her spirit tomorrow, but I'm worried about Yushui's appearance."
In fact, Shazhu also knew that what Li Xuewu asked was whether the rain would go or not.
Yushui wiped away his tears and said, "It's okay, bro, I'll go tomorrow morning, I'll see him off...".
I couldn't continue talking until here, my throat was choked and uncomfortable.
Li Xuewu said to Shazhu: "Tomorrow morning, take my car and go back together."
Silly Zhu looked at Li Xuewu, knowing that there was something in his words, and then looked at his sister.
He Yushui also raised his head to look at Li Xuewu.
"We are all in the same courtyard. The uncle is here too. That's all I can do. Your brother has to go to work here. Sister-in-law Yu Li will take care of you during this time."
Seeing the tears on He Yushui's face, Li Xuewu continued: "Humbleness is hard and the truth is true. Fate is bound to be helpless. We all hope that you can cheer up as soon as possible. If there is anything in the future, you can ask your brother to find me. Can you help me?" I will definitely help."
After speaking to He Yushui, Li Xuewu turned his head and said to Shazhu: "You have a clear conscience, just follow the etiquette, don't get angry and annoy you, it won't make sense."
Seeing that Li Xuewu was about to leave, the uncle also stood up and said: "Xuewu is right, don't think about those messy things, let's just be polite, and you should keep vigil at night."
Li Xuewu nodded and left, leaving Yu Li to take care of Yushui.
Seeing Li Xuewu coming out, Sha Zhu and the uncle also came out, and the three of them stood in the courtyard and sighed.
Sha Zhu nodded to Li Xuewu and said: "Then you will work hard tomorrow."
Li Xuewu shook his head and said, "They're all buddies. Don't talk about this, I should go both public and private, and I will go to the branch office as well."
"Okay, let Xuewu go back and rest, Zhuzi, you should go too, don't let people say anything, did you burn the paper?"
Sha Zhu nodded and said: "I borrowed money from the Sun family and typed two hundred pieces."
Responding to the old man's words, Sha Zhu turned his head to Li Xuewu and said, "I left one hundred sheets for the rain, remember to bring them tomorrow."
Li Xuewu nodded, indicating that he understood.
After seeing off Silly Zhu, Li Xuewu greeted the uncle and turned back to the backyard.
As soon as he reached the Moon Gate, Qin Huairu followed up from behind and called Li Xuewu.
"Learning martial arts"
Li Xuewu looked back and asked, "What's wrong?"
"Tell you something"
After answering, Qin Huairu followed Li Xuewu back to the backyard.
As soon as she entered the door, Qin Huairu sized up Li Xuewu for a while, and then replied, "Are you okay?"
Li Xuewu smiled and said: "It's okay, the two groups are leading the action, and Han Zhan is with him."
Qin Huairu breathed a sigh of relief and said, "The letter I heard from the aunt yesterday morning scared me half to death."
The waiter Li Xuewu took off his outer coat, shook it and hung it in the cloakroom.
"The last time I came here, I looked at it in a daze, and my eyes were always fixed on your police uniform, alas"
Seeing Li Xuewu sitting on the sofa, he went to the bathroom to fetch hot water, came out with a hot towel and handed it to Li Xuewu, saying: "It's so pitiful, I don't know whether to say it's regrettable or lucky." ".
Li Xuewu took a hot towel and applied it to his face, then lay on the back of the sofa with his head up.
Seeing that Li Xuewu didn't speak, Qin Huairu turned around and went to the bathroom to take out the basin and put it at Li Xuewu's feet.
While helping Li Xuewu take off his socks, he said, "Is this case almost over? There won't be any danger, right?"
Feeling the temperature of his feet stepping into the hot water, he stiffened and did not take it out. He took off the towel on his face and wiped his face and neck.
"Who can say for sure, it's too involved."
Qin Huairu rolled up Li Xuewu's trouser legs, stood up, took the towel in Li Xuewu's hand, and went to the bathroom.
"It's not right to see the attitude of the leaders today"
"Um"
Li Xuewu agreed, and continued to rest on the back of the sofa.
Qin Huairu came out again with a hot towel, carefully spread it on Li Xuewu's face, and asked softly, "Is it hot?"
"Well, okay"
Hearing Li Xuewu say yes, Qin Huairu spread out the towel to cover Li Xuewu's entire face, stood behind Li Xuewu and pinched Li Xuewu's head with his fingers.
"Director Yang looked quite satisfied, and Deputy Director Li also talked about it, but he still had a gun in his words, thanks to Director Xu and Director Xu who answered the conversation quickly."
"The other leaders didn't say anything. Director Zhang even said that he would come over to select someone, but Fu Bin saw that his face was not right, so he left after eating."
He told Li Xuewu about the resumption of business of the guest house in the factory today, and then put his hand on Li Xuewu's shoulder and squeezed it.
"Did anyone ask you?"
"No"
Qin Huairu pinched his shoulders for a while, touched the towel on Li Xuewu's face, saw that it was cold, took it out again, and applied it again.
"Who would pay attention to such a small person like me? Besides, there are so many people in the guest house, why should they pay attention to me?"
While speaking, he helped Li Xuewu pinch his cervical spine, and said: "There is a director Xu in the institute, it's fine."
Intermittently, Qin Huairu reported some things that happened in the rolling mill during the days when Li Xuewu was away.
Because Qin Huairu is now a cadre of an office, and a cadre of a leisurely and comfortable guest house, Qin Huairu has also heard a lot of private news during his work contacts.
The women in the office are like this, they have to discuss something if they have something to do.
After rubbing the cervical spine, he helped Li Xuewu wipe his neck and arms, put the towel and went back to the living room to help Li Xuewu pinch his feet.
Li Xuewu lay on the sofa and thought for a while and said: "Don't inquire about the affairs in the agency, try to avoid such discussions."
He looked up at Qin Huairu and said, "I don't need you to help me find out the news. The news that can reach my ears through you is already outdated. You just need to do a good job in the guest house."
Qin Huairu's hand paused, then nodded and continued to pinch.
"understood"
"Familiar with and master the guest house as soon as possible, after the next year, I will transfer Xu Ning away after the next year, you have to be able to hold it"
Li Xuewu lay back tiredly again.
"So fast?"
"Um"
Li Xuewu signaled that it was all right, put his feet back and stood up.
"I'll give you another month to master the guest house"
"Can I do it? Not all the guest houses are nice to me"
Li Xuewu looked into Qin Huairu's eyes and said: "You don't have to use those who are good with you. You want to use those who are obedient. If you are not obedient, find a reason to send them back to the service office, including those who came with you. Give both kindness and strength, don't engage in human relationship management, as time goes by, the tail will not be lost."
Qin Huairu nodded, poured out the footwashing water, and took Li Xuewu's pajamas out to help Li Xuewu change.
The changed clothes helped to hang up again.
He took off Li Xuewu's gun and put it next to the pillow, and said to Li Xuewu who was on the kang, "Tomorrow the rolling mill is on holiday, and you still have to go to work?"
Li Xuewu lay on the pillow, closed his eyes and said, "Well, go to the branch office and try this case."
Touching Li Xuewu's forehead, Qin Huairu sat aside and said, "Pay attention to your body, Yu Li takes care of the rain, what about your New Year's Eve dinner?"
Li Xuewu thought for a while and said: "Let Brother Zhuzi come over and take the spoon."
"Let's live together. I bought noodles. Silly Zhu said that he bought meat and picked up the old lady in the backyard."
Li Xuewu touched Qin Huairu's hand on his forehead, and said: "Tomorrow, you can make a fuss. I heard that San'er's family is coming, and Xiaoyan'er and his wife will also come. Let's have dinner in the inverted room. The room is big, and you can sit down." open".
"Um"
Qin Huairu agreed, and said, "Will I call Jingru here after the next year?"
Li Xuewu looked up and asked, "What's wrong?"
"It's an old lady"
Looking down at Li Xuewu's eyes, he said: "Silly Zhu told the old lady in the backyard that we should celebrate the New Year together, and the old lady urged him to find a wife quickly. Didn't this mention it again? I have written letters to my family, but But it caught up with the rain again."
"Do you have a place to put her?"
Knowing that Li Xuewu doesn't want to see his sister, maybe Li Xuewu heard something when he sneaked away last time.
"I'll live in my house after the next year, and my family will send me a letter about her, I don't care what happens"
"Let's figure it out, it would be best if we can succeed with Zhuzi."
"Learning martial arts..."
"Don't talk"
Li Xuewu closed his eyes and said, "You know what's going on in the rolling mill, and you also know how many people are waiting to be arranged at the service office, let alone the guest house, so don't make trouble for yourself."
"That……"
"The recycle bin is too busy. Besides, do you think girls can do that job?"
Leaning on Li Xuewu's body, Qin Huairu discussed: "You see, Xiao Yan'er and Yu Li are also doing it, she has quick hands and feet, and she can speak well."
"Look at her attitude, you have seen it too, there is no shortage of people"
"it is good"
After Li Xuewu let go, Qin Huairu helped Li Xuewu cover the quilt and prepared to go back.
Li Xuewu closed his eyes and said: "I asked Wen San'er to leave a car for you. It will make commuting easier, and I will go to the warehouse to get it tomorrow."
"Really?"
Seeing Li Xuewu ignoring him, Qin Huairu walked to the kang in surprise, opened Li Xuewu's eyes and asked, "Is it true?"
"You're lying if you don't let me sleep anymore"
"Well"
With a blushing face, Qin Huairu raised her head and leaned into Li Xuewu's ear and said, "I reserved a room for you on the third floor of the guest house."
After saying this, Qin Huairu turned around and left.
Hearing the sound of closing the door, Li Xuewu murmured, "You girls have failed in school" and fell asleep.
Qin Huairu did not dare to stay overnight at Li Xuewu's house, one was the psychological shadow of last time, and the other was the image.
Although Qin Huairu doesn't have much image in Li Xuewu's family, outside he is already someone who can talk in the courtyard.
Since becoming a cadre at the unit level, Qin Huairu herself can feel the changes in the attitudes of the people in the courtyard and the unit towards her.
Even her own mother-in-law knows not to gossip outside and save face for herself, so Qin Huairu can't do anything reckless in the courtyard.
Qin Huairu knew that her situation was different from Yu Li's. Yu Li's life was just like this in the courtyard, busy, cleaning up in name, who can tell what.
Her father-in-law, mother-in-law, and husband are all virtuous. For the sake of her family and herself, Yu Li pretended not to see it when she saw it.
I wish there would be more excitement at their house, this is not better than a big show.
But the situation of Qin Huairu's family is different. She still has a son and a daughter. As Li Xuewu said before, she has to think about the future of the children.
That's why Qin Huairu reserved a room for Li Xuewu in the guest house and never stayed in the backyard.
As soon as she entered the room, she saw her mother-in-law washing the feet of the children of Banggan, and the children also looked at Qin Huairu.
"How's the rain?"
Jia Zhang went back to the house with Sophora japonica in her arms, Qin Huairu stretched out her arms to hug Xiao Dang and followed into the back room.
"What else can I do? As soon as Silly Zhu went to pick her up, the other side let her back. Even if she is engaged, she is not married yet, so she can still take care of her."
Xiao Dang took off the headbands of the two shofar braids and put them under the pillow, saying, "I saw Aunt Yushui crying."
"I saw it too"
Seeing what her sister said, Huaihua followed suit.
Qin Huairu helped her mother-in-law tuck the two children into the bed, and told the two children: "Don't go to the silly uncle's house to make trouble, and don't talk to Aunt Yushui about crying."
"understood"
After settling down the two children, Qin Huairu continued to say to her mother-in-law: "Silly Zhu went to watch the night tonight, and Yu Li will take care of the rainwater."
"Hey! She is diligent~"
"No way, it was arranged by Li Xuewu"
Qin Huairu followed her mother-in-law out of the back room, and let her mother-in-law wash the feet of the stick, while she helped make the bed for the stick.
"Silly column has been open for a year, but there is no class. Li Xuewu asked Yu Li to take care of the rainwater."
Hearing that Yu Li was arranged by Li Xuewu, Jia Zhang stopped talking about Yu Li.
In fact, she didn't want to talk about Li Xuewu. She was very afraid of Li Xuewu now. Others only listened to Li Xuewu's good words, and all they talked about was Li Xuewu's prestige.
But Jia Zhang went to inquire about Li Xuewu's ruthlessness, so is there a good thing to say?
Now it is rumored on the street that Li Erbalu is almost a ruthless person who cannibalizes human flesh, especially when he heard the nickname of Li Erbalu, it almost scared Jia Zhang to pee.
If it weren't for the support of her daughter-in-law here, Jia Zhang would have wanted to explain to Li Xuewu that she didn't pass on the name.
This Li Erba is so sick now that he twists people's heads, shoots and kills people, and cleans up the punks on the street crying for their father and mother to do labor.
Mrs. Jia Zhang just eats hard but not soft, so he is afraid of people like Li Xuewu.
Why!I will not reason with you, nor will I ink with you. If you refuse to accept it, I will shoot you in the head.
"We've brought back the rainwater, why is Silly Zhu going to watch the night?"
Don't talk about Li Xuewu, you can always talk about silly Zhu.
"He's really stupid. He's just throwing out the rain."
Qin Huairu glanced at her mother-in-law, and said: "They are all engaged, so the rain doesn't have to go, why don't people go here, the uncle also said that they should go."
"Cut~~"
Mrs. Jia Zhang curled her lips when she heard the old man, and then said: "It's just a cat crying and a mouse pretending to be merciful. If you want me to say, their family just didn't have such a life. At that time, Yushui was engaged, and they didn't even invite me here. Please, that object has never come."
"Isn't the rainwater doing it by itself?"
Qin Huairu also knew about the situation of Yushui and Jing Yongjie. It was introduced by Yushui's colleague in the textile factory, and the two got married.
"It was Jing Yongjie's mother who disagreed with the two, but didn't she agree later?"
Jiazhang said with hanging eyes: "Remember, the woman has to be in charge of this house at all times, and you can judge people accurately."
While talking, after washing Banggen's feet, he asked Banggen to pull his shoes and jump onto the bed by himself, and continued to say to Qin Huairu, "Grandma Yushui was here last time, and I saw her, so she is not a good person to get along with. How tricky, there is no mother, and there is a father who is not in tune, and his face is like a donkey."
Seeing her mother-in-law talking about others, Qin Huairu didn't bother to take the slap in the face. This is the crow standing on the pig, only seeing that others are black, but not seeing any virtue in herself.
Covering Bang Geng with a quilt, Bang Geng took Qin Huairu's hand and asked, "Mom, is Uncle Wu back?"
"I'm back. I'm resting in the backyard. I just came back from your Uncle Wu's house. I talked about the guest house for a while."
Pulling her son's hand into the bed, Qin Huairu raised her head and said to her mother-in-law: "Now Li Xuewu is the leader of the sub-bureau, and he has to go to Jing's house on behalf of the public tomorrow morning, saying that he will go with the rain tomorrow morning."
"What the hell?"
Mrs. Jia Zhang just went outside to pour water for washing her feet, and when she entered the house, she heard her daughter-in-law say who the leader of the sub-bureau was Li Xuewu, so she couldn't help asking in surprise.
"What branch? Branch factory?"
Qin Huairu said while untying her hair: "It's the branch office. The people from the police office seem to have been promoted to the branch office to become the deputy director. The unit is across the street in Daxing Hutong. I also heard that the guest house resumed business today." What the leader said at the dinner table."
"Scared! Tsk tsk tsk~"
Jia Zhang put the basin in his hand on the shelf, looked at Qin Huairu and asked, "How big an official is that? What is the rank of the deputy? He quit the rolling mill?"
Qin Huairu loosened her hair, hung the headband on her hand, and said, "Why do you ask how old you are? Anyway, you are quite the boss, better than the section chief. They had dinner at noon and said what are the two lines? The rolling mill is here. They are doing it, and the sub-bureau is also doing it."
Mrs. Jia Zhang couldn't help saying: "He just passed the new year, and he has only been on shift for a few days now. He can really toss."
Qin Huairu fetched hot water to wash his feet, sat on the edge of the kang and said, "You can do it just by tossing around. Didn't you see how many years of service he has? Didn't you see that people in the Northeast have put their lives there?"
"Not always!"
Jiazhang took off his coat and got into bed, pulled the quilt for the two sleeping children and said: "He is the leader, so there is no need to rush ahead, and death is not death."
Qin Huairu's feet were hot, but her back was cold. She grabbed the padded jacket from the kang and put it on her back, shivering involuntarily.
"It happened a few years ago. Someone shot him in the arm. He was shot through from the top to the bottom. He was so lucky to save his life. You think he is relaxed. He sleeps with a gun next to his pillow."
"tsk tsk"
Lying on the kang, Jia Zhang said: "We don't envy his life. It's good to stop and go, but we don't dare to be like him. How is this different from the braided army whose head was stuck on the waistband of the trousers earlier."
"Don't go out and mess around, it's a big difference, who is he doing it for? Isn't it for the safety of the street, can it be the same as the whip army you saw?"
Seeing Qin Huairu talking about the street, Jia Zhang asked: "Is it true what was reported on the street? They said that Li Xuewu arrested two or three hundred people and beat them on the beams of the house. Many of them would lose their heads if they were recruited." of".
Qin Huairu tilted her head and looked at her mother-in-law and said, "Didn't you say you can't gossip on the street?"
Jia Zhang grinned and said, "Didn't you tell the old lady from the Shen family next door when the concierge was on duty? I didn't say it, just listened to it."
"Don't talk nonsense, there is no one hanging from the roof, the street judge, how many houses and beams there are!"
"She said, she only recruited when she was hanging from above."
"pure bullshit"
Qin Huairu took a foot wipe and wiped her feet, and said: "Old lady Shen can't get out of the house, where can I know that there are no hangings on the hanging room, the wind is like rain, besides, even if the hanging beams are on, It can still be seen."
"Too"
Jia Zhang has also thought about Wei'er now, and got second-hand news about his feelings.
Qin Huairu took the footwashing water and poured it into the bucket at the door, went back to the back room, took off her coat and got on the kang.
"There are so many people arrested, but some of them made mistakes. Most of the others are street bastards. Those are the people who work on the street these days."
"What I said, why did it spread so wickedly!"
Jia Zhang turned her body and looked at Qin Huairu who was pulling the light rope, and said: "They said that Li Xuewu took a lot of things from those people, and they all went to the West Courtyard. Do you think this is true?"
Afraid that Qin Huairu would not believe it, Jia Zhang supported her body and said, "That day I saw Wen San'er and the others using a tricycle to dump things in the west courtyard."
"what"
Qin Huairu said angrily, "Didn't you hear what Da Ma said, those are all confiscated, and the streets and police offices entrusted them to sell them here, in order to make up for those who lost their things."
"Hey what can I tell her"
Qin Huairu was too lazy to talk to her mother-in-law, she only listened to small talk, and refused to listen to serious talk.
"Didn't the third master just receive the compensation, otherwise he would be willing to buy another car? And the old seven in the hall"
Hearing Qin Huairu's words, Jia Zhang said: "I said, why did Yan Laokouer buy a car again, hey, just be on guard."
Qin Huairu knew that her mother-in-law was talking about the third master adding anti-theft measures to the car.
In order not to lose his beloved car again, the third uncle pushed the car into the house every day and never dared to put it under the window again, otherwise he would not be able to sleep all night, so he would take a look at it later.
This matter and the courtyard have become a daily bustle, comparable to Zhao Si'er who carried a bicycle upstairs to find his hometown and elder.
Qin Huairu ignored her nagging mother-in-law and fell asleep on her side.
Li Xuewu was woken up by the uncle who came to the room in the morning, and looked at his watch, it was only after five o'clock.
"Learning martial arts, it's time to get up, the Jing family should be more active at six o'clock"
"Hey, I see"
Only old people like a grandpa in the courtyard understand this, so Li Xuewu got up and began to dress and wash his face.
When Li Xuewu finished packing and left, he saw that the lights at Shazhu's house were on, the lights at Uncle's house were on, and even the lights at Qin Huairu's house were on.
"Why do you get up so early?"
Seeing Qin Huairu coming out of the house, Li Xuewu tightened his coat and asked.
"Help the rain to clean up, the meal that the aunt got up early, can you take a bite?"
Li Xuewu shook his head and said: "I got up too early, I have no appetite, let's talk about it when I come back."
Qin Huairu carried two baskets in his hands and placed them on the table in front of Shazhu's house.
Li Xuewu looked at it, and saw that there were two cloth bags and a knife burning paper.
"Are you sending it too?"
Qin Huairu looked at Li Xuewu and said, "By virtue of Silly Zhu, the two pockets his grandma sewed last night were filled with fried rice and beans."
While talking, the first mother came out of the house, also carrying two bags in her hand and put them in Qin Huairu's basket.
The uncle came out of the hut in Yushui, carrying two bundles of burning paper in his hand, and took out a bundle and put it in the basket.
"Last night I typed another two hundred cards, and brought out thirty for you. This stack is yours, remember it."
"Thank you, my lord"
Li Xuewu nodded and thanked him. He originally planned to write 5 yuan for the ceremony if he opened the account, but now that the old man thinks about it, it looks a lot better.
Although they went on behalf of the public, it was the Jing family's own business after all, so they all attended according to the etiquette of the public.
The uncle waved his hand and signaled: "Yu Li got up in the morning and boiled water, you go and add water, I will clean it up for you."
Li Xuewu nodded and went to fetch water from the sitting room.
When I entered the inverted room, I saw Yu Li scooping water into the bucket.
"How long ago?"
Seeing Li Xuewu coming in, Yu Li put the ladle in her hand on the pot and said softly, "Biaozi and the others are still asleep, please keep your voice down."
Li Xuewu walked out carrying the bucket, and Yu Li followed behind and said, "I filled the first bucket, this is the second bucket, it should be enough."
Entered the garage, picked up the bucket and added it in, twisted the lid and fastened the machine cover.
Yu Li took the bucket and said: "When the spirit comes out, stand beside or behind, don't stand on the road, and don't go in front."
Seeing Yu Li's serious expression, Li Xuewu frowned and asked, "Are you talking so much?"
After tidying up Li Xuewu's clothes, he said: "After all, he died unexpectedly. If there is anything to say, well, remember not to go home directly. They will take the rainwater and find a restaurant on the road to have breakfast before returning."
Li Xuewu still knew this, nodded his head and said: "You can go back to sleep after we leave later."
"understood"
He patted Li Xuewu's coat, agreed and walked back.
When Li Xuewu drove the car to the gate of the west courtyard, the uncle and others had already brought the basket and burnt paper.
Yu Shui also stood beside Da Ma, listening to Da Ma's explanation.
Black padded jacket, black trousers, black padded shoes, all in black except for a white hairpin pinned to his head.
The uncle and Qin Huairu put the basket and burnt paper in the rear cockpit, and the uncle led He Yushui to the side co-pilot.
Seeing that He Yushui stopped crying now, but his eyes were swollen and his face was white.
Looking at his watch, Li Xuewu waved with the uncle and the others and drove out of the west courtyard.
The Jing family is not close to here, they live near the Fuxing Gate in Xicheng, and Li Xuewu drove for more than 20 minutes.
Fortunately, there were not many vehicles on the road at this time, otherwise we would not be able to reach anything.
Along the way, Li Xuewu didn't say anything to Yushui. What Yushui needs now is not comfort, but silence.
When we arrived at the alley where Jing's house was located, we saw Beixinqiao's Tricycle parked by the side of the road, and Li Xuewu pulled over the car too.
Li Xuewu jumped out of the car first, shook hands with the head of the family who came out, and said his identity. The head of the house saluted Li Xuewu, and Li Xuewu also bowed slightly in return.
Yu Shui was sitting in the car at the moment, looking at the whiteness in the yard, and cried.
Li Xuewu looked back, and asked a question to the head of the house, the head of the house looked a little embarrassed, turned around and walked quickly into the courtyard.
Xu Shi heard the sound of the car, Duan Youting and Shen Fang came out from the courtyard.
The three of them didn't speak, and lit cigarettes with each other.
Li Xuewu picked up the things he brought from the rear cockpit and put them by the side of the car, but didn't go inside because the rain was still on the car at the moment.
It wasn't that the rain didn't want to go down, nor was it because of his health, but because he didn't know whether the Jing family would let him in or not, and in what capacity.
Li Xuewu said the same thing to the host who greeted the guests just now. The host didn't dare to make decisions, so he went back to the courtyard to ask for instructions.
Because he brought the rainwater, you have to wait for the rainwater to settle down before you can go in. You can't just leave the rainwater here alone and wait.
Duan Youting and Shen Fang also saw what Li Xuewu meant, so they stood by Li Xuewu and smoked without saying anything.
After waiting for a few minutes, a middle-aged woman came out of the courtyard led by the head of the family, followed by two young women. The three of them were not wearing filial piety, but were all in black.
The middle-aged woman is Jing Yongjie's mother, and the two young women should be Jing Yongjie's sister-in-law, and one of them is still holding a filial cloth.
The middle-aged woman and her two daughters-in-law first gave Li Xuewu a lady's salute according to the introduction of the hostess, and Li Xuewu bowed slightly to express his condolences.
The middle-aged woman got up and went to the side of the car, shouting: "Rain! Woooooo".
When Yushui saw the three people come out, he stood by the car and waited, and when he heard the crying, he also started crying.
"mom!"
Jing Yongjie's mother hugged He Yushui and began to cry, and He Yushui also hugged Jing's mother and cried loudly.
After crying for a while, the head of the family persuaded: "Auntie's condolences, so as not to miss the next hour."
Jing Yongjie's two sister-in-laws also persuaded him for a while, and then Jing's mother held He Yushui's face and said, "It's not that mom is cruel, it's that mom doesn't want to delay you."
"mom!"
Seeing Yushui crying sadly, Mother Jing hugged He Yushui's head again and cried: "Mom is ruthless now, it's for your kindness, remember, I will send Xiaojie this trip, and you will have nothing to do with our family when you come back Now, don't call me mom anymore."
"Woooooo~"
"Do you understand?"
No matter how Jing's mother asked, He Yushui just cried. Jing's mother took the filial piety hat handed over by her daughter-in-law and began to wear filial piety for He Yushui.
Even though the mother-in-law looked down on Yushui's family and was so picky about Yushui in the past, but He Yushui was able to come today, and He Yushui's brother stayed there all night last night, even the most hard-hearted people were softened .
Jing's mother was also reluctant to let her son go out like this, so she agreed to He Yushui's decision.
He Yushui is benevolent and righteous, and Jing's mother can't lose her heart, so she told He Yushui outside the door, and the fate will be broken immediately after sending this off.
Seeing that He Yushui was dragged in by two sister-in-laws, Li Xuewu finished smoking the cigarette in his hand before entering the yard with the burnt paper he brought.
The mourning hall was set up in the yard. Li Xuewu put the burnt paper in his hand on the side table, bowed before Jing Yongjie's mourning, and helped Jing Yongjie's elder brother and several children who came forward to return the salute. Child, help the female relatives who are saluting.
After saying his condolences, Li Xuewu left the mourning hall.
Shen Fang gestured to Li Xuewu for the room on the side, and said, "The accounting table is placed in that room."
Li Xuewu nodded and walked into the wing room, "Colleague Li Xuewu, 5 yuan for the ceremony."
The account writer raised his head and looked at Li Xuewu. It was rare to see such a scene of Dianyi. He asked Li Xuewu's handwriting and wrote it on it.
Putting down the five yuan in his hand, he turned and left the house.
In fact, it’s not time to write the accounts yet. It should be the guests who come back from the funeral to write the accounts. However, some guests may leave after the funeral, so the account table will be paid first.
When he came out, he saw Shen Fang and Duan Youting talking with Zheng Fuhua, and Jing Yongjie's father was standing beside him.
Seeing Li Xuewu approaching, Father Jing saluted Li Xuewu, and Li Xuewu also returned a salute.
Sijiu City is like this, with many etiquettes. People from all over the world came to Sijiu City to settle down, and they brought in their customs and habits.
After hundreds of years of blending, no one in the old Lier in Sijiu City can understand it now, but the common people are mostly fools looking at the boundary wall during the New Year.
So now with the changes of the times, various customs that fit the reality have appeared.
