Candide in Chronology is on strike

Chapter 15 Going back to my hometown?

Qin Xi didn't do too much, she slowly got up and washed up, and then went to the kitchen to help light the fire. To her, this was just a trivial matter, and it was not worth the verbal dispute over it.

Because the time was a bit rushed, Li Chunhua became impatient seeing Qin Xi who was slowly burning the fire: "The fire is burning brighter, it's getting late."

"You think everyone in your family is as busy as you!"

"Understood, don't rush." ​​Qin Xi picked up the firewood next to him and stuffed two sticks into the mouth of the stove. Thinking of what Li Chunhua said just now, he stuffed two more sticks in.

At this time, the firewood is also precious, and when burning it, one must be careful, stuffing it into the stove like swallowing dates, and if the elders see it, they will inevitably be reprimanded.

Li Chunhua is from the older generation, so naturally she can't understand Qin Xi's waste of firewood, but thinking of the other people waiting for breakfast at home, they didn't say anything, the key is to make breakfast early.

The fire was burning, and the smell came out. Standing next to the big iron pot, Li Chunhua was the first to smell it.

"Blurred?"

Her first reaction was that Qin Xi was useless, he couldn't even make a fire, and it never occurred to her that she was the one who wanted a big fire, and that she was the shopkeeper who threw her hands away and didn't stir the pot, so that the food that sank to the bottom was burned directly.

"Tell me about you, why are you so useless!"

"I sleep late in the morning and refuse to get up. Now I just let you start a fire. The pot is still burnt. You say you, what else can you do?"

"A waste, living is a waste of the family's food."

Before Qin Xi had time to refute, Liu Qin who was outside the house rushed in as soon as she heard the movement in the kitchen: "What's the trouble?"

"What are you fussing about?"

"I see that you are free. You are eating and drinking at home. You don't have to go to work or go to school. You just cook and do housework. How can you be so fussy!"

After finishing speaking, Liu Qin looked at Li Chunhua seriously, and said very seriously: "Mother, I heard that my brother and sister gave birth to a baby boy in their hometown, do you want to go back and have a look?"

"I'm not trying to drive you away, I'm just asking. It's hard work for my brother and sister to take care of three children in their hometown alone. I don't have anything to do here for the time being. You can go back to take care of your brother and sister for confinement, and wait for her to recover. Now, when you want to come back, you can come back anytime."

The power of Liu Qin's words is tantamount to throwing a firecracker into a hot pot, and the power is so powerful.

"What? Are you going to drive me away?" Li Chunhua said in disbelief.

When she came back to her senses, she didn't care about the porridge in the pot and the person who lit the fire anymore. She was full of thoughts about Liu Qin wanting to drive her back to the countryside. The laughter of those old women is so harsh.

The Qin family's hometown is in Taohua Town under the jurisdiction of Yongxin County. The second group of Hongqi, also known as Qingou Village, is a small village. Together with the two surrounding villages, it forms the Red Flag Brigade under the jurisdiction of Taohua Town.

Qingou Village is surrounded by mountains and rivers, and it is a good place with beautiful scenery, but being poor is really poor. In the whole village, there are more than 30 households and more than 150 people. All of them rely on the 200 mu of land in the village for food. When the age is not good, eating is a big problem.

Of course, being surrounded by mountains and rivers does not mean that there are any big rivers in the area. It just means that there is a reservoir built in the local area, and there is a small river to irrigate the fertile fields in Qingou Village. Mountains do not mean high mountains and dense forests, just ordinary The hill is covered with pine trees, and there are no animal activities in it, but mushrooms grow a lot.

Everyone in Qingou Village is surnamed Qin. The ancestors of the villagers are a family who fled from other places. The Qin family has lived in the local area for more than 100 years. They have already integrated into the local environment. They married and had children here. I don't want to go, and I don't plan to go back. Qingou Village has already become their home.

"Liu Qin, let me tell you, I will never go back to Qingou Village. Even if I die, I will die in this house. Don't try to drive me back."

She really thought so, finally her son was successful, married a city wife, and she was given a solid job. She also became a city resident, so why would she want to continue to go back to Qingou Village to live a life facing the loess and back to the sky.

Besides, the daughter-in-law married by the second child has big ideas. The second child is useless. She is treated like a second grandson in front of her. , she will not go back.

She paid 200 yuan for Qin Shan's job back then, but that was her coffin book, why should she go back!She should have a share of the boss' job.

She also helped a lot when building this house. It stands to reason that she also has a share in this house. She lives here with peace of mind, why should she be driven away!
"I didn't drive you away." This point must be made clear, otherwise the old lady at home will be fooling around, and she, Liu Qin, will be ashamed.

"It's just that the younger brother and sister are born. She needs someone to take care of her. I'm busy with work and can't get away. You are the most suitable."

The second daughter-in-law had a baby last month, and she had confinement early. If a rural wife gave birth to a baby, she would be considered a kind mother-in-law if she could confine her for ten days and a half.

Li Chunhua didn't want to go back to her hometown. The second daughter-in-law had to take care of the children and also take care of the housework. After confinement, she took the children to work in the fields non-stop. It was really hard.

"There's no use for me. She's always been considerate and thoughtful. She keeps the house in order. I'd better not go back and cause trouble for her."

"Besides, she was born last month. We went back to see her together. When she was confinement, she refused my help. What's more, now that she is confinement, I still won't go back and make trouble for her. gone."

"The smell of porridge has come out, go and see if the children are awake, it's time for breakfast." Li Chunhua didn't want to continue the previous topic, and directly provoked another topic.

Anyway, no matter what Liu Qin said, no matter how she didn't give up, she just had one idea, that she would never return to the countryside.

"Okay, but as I said, you can really think about it carefully. The brothers and sisters in my hometown are really hard, and I can still support them here for the time being."

Being rejected, as expected, Liu Qin was not in a hurry, and took her time, she believed that she would be able to wear people away one day.

Seeing Liu Qin walk out of the kitchen, Li Chunhua breathed a sigh of relief, and cursed in a low voice: "You little tigress, when you were using my old lady, you coaxed me here with a good voice, now you don't need it, you just want to kick me!" Kick it open, there is no door."

After scolding, I was relieved a little bit, turned around and saw Qin Xi, who looked a little like Liu Qin, and said angrily: "What are you looking at, I don't have any sharp eyesight, why don't you get some porridge in a bowl, do you still want to have breakfast? gone?"
