Reborn 1980: Good Wife Gets Rich and Busy

Chapter 68 Group photo
Xue Ling looked at the somewhat worn plum blossom pattern quilt, thinking that it would be eleven o'clock when he came back.

I had to take a shower and change clothes, and find a thick quilt to cover myself with. It might be past twelve o'clock before I could go to bed, so I quickly turned around and found it.

His room was smaller than hers, with a large old cabinet, a low stool, and no furniture.

Xue Ling went straight to the small cabinet, opened it and found that it was the large snakeskin bag he had brought back from the supply and marketing cooperative.

"It should be inside!" She muttered as she pulled out the snakeskin bag.

Under the dim light, she first saw several books. Thinking that the books were a bit heavy and might get in the way of holding the quilt, she took them out one by one.

Unexpectedly, all that was left in the snakeskin bag were some clothes, a few summer ones, a few ones he usually wore, and two military-colored coats, but nothing else.

Xue Ling couldn't help but frown and looked inside the small room, only to find that there was no other place to put things.

The room was so small that it was only five or six square meters. You could see it clearly at a glance, and there was no other place to look for.

Did he only cover himself with this neatly folded thin quilt all year round? !

Xue Ling couldn't help but feel distressed.

This tough guy had a tough temper and a tight mouth. He had lived a miserable life in the past, but he never said a word to her.

If she hadn't brought him to live together in a shared apartment and eat three meals and two at home, he would still be the same as before, hungry every three days and screaming all the time.

Her quilt was a dowry. It was a pure cotton quilt that her mother bought in person at a department store. Although it was not thick, it was very comfortable and warm when covering her body.

The mornings of the past two days had been cold, but she was covered in quilt and didn't feel the cold at all.

I have to find a chance to buy him a pure cotton quilt like that tomorrow.

She zipped up the snakeskin bag, carefully folded the original clothes, and then picked up a few books.

"Crack!" Two books fell.

The weather is cold, and my hands and feet are inevitably stiff, so I might accidentally drop something. Fortunately, it’s a book, so I’m not afraid of breaking it.

She stuffed the other books back, knelt down and picked them up - but her movements stopped short!
I saw a small photo inside an old dictionary, revealing a corner like a gear.

Xue Ling was extremely curious and pulled it, revealing the three-inch photo.

The photo had obviously been stored for many years. Some of the corners were mottled and brown, but there was no wrinkle or damage at all. The owner obviously cherished it.

Xue Ling looked at the two people in the photo and was stunned.

……

At around eight o'clock, the north wind was howling non-stop, and the wind on the pier by the river was blowing, causing the small trees to bend and the big trees to dance.

Chen Min was trembling, hugging his body and shaking non-stop.

"Ayuan...can you wait?"

They only unloaded one load tonight and each made a dollar.It was too cold for everyone waiting at the pier, so they just sat in the corner, smoking cigarettes and chatting.

Cheng Tianyuan squinted his eyes and looked at the dark night sky.

"Look at the thick clouds. It's likely to rain later. The wind is too strong, and the boat will probably have to wait until dawn before landing. Let's go back."

Chen Min couldn't help but nodded and stood up. When the north wind blew, he couldn't help but shiver again.

Others saw them getting up and asked one after another: "Don't you wait?"

Cheng Tianyuan shook his head and chuckled: "I didn't wear much and was cold. I went back earlier."

A fat man with black teeth knocked the ashes from his cigarette and smiled ambiguously: "In this weather, it's better to go home and hug your wife to sleep!"

Everyone laughed.

Cheng Tianyuan also laughed.

When men get together, they like to say all kinds of dirty words, and they talk loudly and loudly.

Cheng Tianyuan waved his hand, turned around, took the bicycle, and stepped on it.

Chen Min took a different route from him and went to his home.Cheng Tianyuan felt cold and pedaled the car very fast, and his body quickly warmed up.

When he arrived at the door of his house, he raised his head as usual, looked at the dim and warm light coming from the window of Xue Ling's room, and raised a smile at the corner of his mouth.

He always urged her to go to bed early and never stay up late.But she was worried about herself and would always wait for him to open the door before turning off the lights and going to sleep.

Because of this, he tried to finish work after ten o'clock and come back around eleven o'clock, so that she would not go to bed too late.

It was really cold today and it was going to rain again. He came back early so he could chat with her and urge her to go to bed early.

He entered the door, locked it carefully, and parked his bicycle.

The small light was still on in the kitchen, and a large pot of hot water was boiling on the briquettes.

Cheng Tianyuan knew that it was cooked for him, so he lifted the pot and saw that the hot water kettle on the side was full, so he carried the hot water kettle upstairs.

Xue Ling's room was closed. Cheng Tianyuan thought she was translating, so he tiptoed back to the room to get a change of clothes, and then went downstairs to take a shower.

My body felt very cold. After taking a hot shower, I felt much better.

He wiped his hair half dry, turned off the lights, turned around, picked up the dirty clothes and went upstairs.

In the past, several grown men shared a small dormitory and had to wait for everything, which was very inconvenient.

Since he and his wife moved in together, the food has been improved, with vegetables and meat for three meals, hot water and hot water, and it is easy to use the toilet. He suddenly gained more than seven kilograms in weight.

He is tall and has a large frame, so he cannot be seen clearly.I told Xue Ling this morning, but she still didn’t believe it!

Thinking of her cute and cute appearance, he couldn't help but speed up his steps and knocked on her door.

"Come in!" A familiar voice like a warbler came from inside.

Cheng Tianyuan opened the door and said warmly: "It's cold outside. I came back earlier."

I saw Xue Ling sitting at the desk, looking at something in trance, without looking back.

Cheng Tianyuan stretched and sat on the edge of her bed.

"It's cold tonight. Don't be too tired. Get some rest early."

Unexpectedly, Xue Ling didn't reply to him, and was unusually quiet.

Cheng Tianyuan raised his thick sword eyebrows and shouted in confusion: "Daughter-in-law?"

Xue Ling turned around slowly, eyes slightly red, staring at him with a half-smile.

Cheng Tianyuan's heart skipped a beat and he rushed over.

"What's wrong?! Are you crying?! What's going on?"

His little wife's eyes were red, her pretty nose was red, her lips were pouting and she was glaring at him, as if he had done something wrong.

"What's wrong...?" He suddenly remembered something and asked tentatively: "Is it Ouyang Mei who said something? Don't believe her!"

"No!" Xue Ling smiled shyly, took a small photo from behind and handed it over.

Cheng Tianyuan looked at it with wide eyes, and his handsome face turned red.

Xue Ling looked at his embarrassment and couldn't help laughing.

"Is this the only photo we have together?" She shook the small photo in her hand.

In the photo, a boy is carrying a little girl on his back.

A seven or eight-year-old boy with a red scarf on his chest. His hair is slightly messy, his clothes are rustic, and his feet are bare. But he smiles very happily, showing his neat white teeth, but his eyes squint back, looking at his back. little girl.

The little girl had two pigtails and a round and chubby face. She pouted her little mouth and shrank back from him, as if she was avoiding the camera.

This is him and her as children.
