break out of the ice

Chapter 236 Every festive season

Lu Hongmei saw Liu Qinqin here and said: "You don't have any idea. It's so cold today and it's a waste of time. Why did you bring the pomegranates here? The old village chief can still pick them like you." ?”

"I'm not thinking about the old man I'm close to," Liu Qinqin whispered.

At this time, Shi Mu and several old women from the village gathered around.

Advise Liu Qinqin and Xiao Shiliu to return to Mincheng with Lu Hongmei.

"The child is young and doesn't need to come over. Just let Jingqi stay here. If you want to come and accompany Chunhua, just come over tomorrow."

Shi Jingqi also persuaded Liu Qinqin to go back to Mincheng. Pan Changhe was driving today, so it was very convenient to go back and forth.

Liu Qinqin originally wanted to stay here with Shi Chunhua, but when she heard everyone trying to persuade her, she nodded.

In the room, Zhao Chunhua had already heard the noise and knew that Yan Zhengqing was here.

When he looked up, he happened to see Yan Zhengqing entering the door. He hurriedly stopped him and said, "Why are you coming into the house? Just stay outside for a while."

Yan Zhengqing didn't think it was anything, and took Zhao Chunhua's hand: "Sister Chunhua, I came here with my father's instructions. He couldn't come over, so he asked me to talk to you."

Since Yan Weidong became the director of the Commerce Bureau, Shi Jingqi rarely saw him.

However, he could still remember the old village chief, which moved Shi Chunhua. She held Yan Zhengqing's hand and said, "Thank you, Director Yan, for still remembering him."

After Yan Zhengqing brought the words, he didn't know how to comfort Shi Chunhua.

Her temperament is rational and calm. Ever since she studied law, she has become even more calm. She was like this when she faced Shunshun in the summer, and she is like this now when she is facing Shi Chunhua.

It has been a few days. Shi Chunhua has been by the old village chief's side since his symptoms began to worsen.

If we were talking about sadness, there was definitely some, but because the old village chief was older and did not suffer when he left, Shi Chunhua thought about it and felt that it was not that uncomfortable anymore.

Friends came over one after another, each trying to comfort themselves, but she didn't need it.

So when Yan Zhengqing was hesitating about how to say comforting words, she spoke first: "Did you come here by bus with Sister Hongmei? Go back to Mincheng as soon as possible. You can just take the car driven by Changhe. If it's later, you'll be gone." It’s inconvenient.”

Yan Zhengqing nodded and said yes.

Standing nearby, Liu Qinqin and Lu Hongmei went into the room to chat with Shi Chunhua for a while.

Then he came out of the house with the two of them.

When Pan Changhe left Shijiawan in a van, Lu Hongmei, Liu Qinqin, Xiao Shiliu and Yan Zhengqing were sitting in the van.

After a day of hard work, Xiao Pomegranate was already tired. As soon as the van swayed out of Shijiawan, she fell asleep in Lu Chunmei's arms.

Lu Chunmei works in the fireworks courtyard every day, and is exposed to the sun and wind. Although she is the same age as Liu Qinqin, she looks older than Liu Qinqin.

She also spoke like a sister-in-law, and said to Liu Qinqin: "The family courtyard is not cleaned and it is deserted. When you come back this time, you will still live in the small courtyard."

"Okay." Liu Qinqin said, reaching out to take the little pomegranate.

Liu Qinqin blocked her and said, "Let me hold you. You have been gone for half a year, let alone a few old people. I miss little pomegranate very much."

Pan Changhe also added: "Auntie, Xiao Pomegranate is not here, and the courtyard is not as lively as it used to be."

Liu Qinqin also touched Xiao Pomegranate's face and said, "If we stay in Wenzhou for a few more years, we will come back."

Liu Qinqin herself didn’t know exactly how many years or when it was.

The couple, Liu Guodong, He Jiale, and all the old Lengdie people who went to Wenzhou or Shenzhen, although their wages are higher than before, they have left their hometowns after all. No one knows when they can return to their hometowns. clear.

There was silence in the car for nearly a minute.

Little Pomegranate probably felt uncomfortable being held, so she moved in Lu Hongmei's arms.

Lu Hongmei adjusted her sitting position so that Xiao Pomegranate's legs could reach the car seat.Yan Zhengqing saw a small blanket next to him and took it to cover the little pomegranate.

As soon as there was news about Yan Zhengqing, Liu Qinqin and Lu Hongmei had a clear understanding and found a new topic together.

"Zhengqing, have you found a boyfriend at school?"

"Zhengqing, are you in love?"

Yan Zhengqing chuckled: "Shunshun and I have agreed that no one will fall in love."

Liu Qinqin and Lu Hongmei looked at each other and started persuasion mode.

"When you're old enough, you should fall in love."

"I already knew your brother when I was your age."

"..."

As the car drove along, several women chatted.

Little Pomegranate slept peacefully. Occasionally she encountered naughty children shooting firecrackers at the car on the road, but she just frowned.

After finishing the funeral of the old village chief, it was already the end of the year.

Liu Guodong and He Jiale also returned from Shenzhen.

When they came back, Shi Jingqi drove a van to pick them up.

Both Liu Guodong and He Jiale have become a lot darker, especially He Jiale. He used to spend a lot of time in the laboratory and was a fair scholar. After the scars were left on his face, the scars on his face became a bit obvious because of his fair skin. It's a lot darker now, but the scars are less obvious.

Liu Guodong and He Jiale made a lot of money in Shenzhen and were in a good mood, especially He Jiale. He wore a fur coat with a floral shirt underneath in the winter. When he saw Shi Jingqi, he came over to hug him.

Shi Jingqi patted his shoulder and turned to Liu Guodong: "How did you do it, turn a scholar into this in less than a year?"

Liu Guodong chuckled: "I'm not that capable."

Shi Jingqi asked He Jiale again: "Are you cold?"

He Jiale wrapped himself in a leather coat and said, "It's really a bit cold."

"Then get in the car quickly." Shi Jingqi urged.

He Jiale hurriedly declined, pointed to the car parked next to the train station, and said, "I'll just take the car back."

Having been away from home for nearly a year, it was understandable that He Jiale was homesick. Now that it was convenient to take a car, Shi Jingqi didn't insist.

However, he and Liu Guodong still watched He Jiale get into the car going back to his home, and then returned to the van.

As soon as the car started, Shi Jingqi said to Liu Guodong: "Father, mother, sister-in-law, and Dunzi all said they would come to pick you up. I saw that the weather was gloomy and I was afraid it was going to snow, so I didn't let them come. It was only half the morning." It’s just half an hour late.”

Even though Shi Jingqi told everyone not to be anxious before leaving and An An was waiting in the house, when the two of them walked to the fireworks courtyard, the whole family was still standing neatly in front of the courtyard.

Snowflakes began to fall in the sky that had been overcast all day. Liu Guodong looked at his family members waving to the car and sniffed: "It's better to be at home."

Shi Jingqi said "Hey".

As for why and what, only the two people in the car knew, or in other words, only Shi Jingqi himself knew.

Liu Guodong is also back, and the family is finally complete.

Lu Hongmei asked Pan Changhe to kill a sheep.

In the aroma of mutton soup, the Spring Festival in the fireworks courtyard has also begun.
