Chapter 231
Three months later, Xu Damao looked at the gate of the courtyard and had the illusion that he did not dare to enter.
"Why are you standing there? Hurry up and get into the hospital!"
Behind Xu Damao, Xu Fugui lowered his hands slightly to his sides and followed with a gloomy expression.
Behind him was Xu Yueling, who was too timid to speak.
Seeing that Xu Damao didn't answer, Xu Fugui simply turned his head and looked at Xu Yueling, who was shrinking her neck:
"Why don't you go in and see if your mother has prepared the brazier!"
It was obviously a reprimand, but to Xu Yueling's ears it sounded like a huge pardon.
"Hey! I'm going right now!"
Xu Yueling lowered her head and walked around Xu Damao in a hurry.
When the two of them crossed paths, Xu Yueling didn't even dare to look up.
They were still the same people, but Xu Damao now had an aura that made Xu Yueling feel intimidated.
Obviously I have been visiting him frequently in the past three months.
Xu Damao came out of it, but he was not as meek as he was inside.
'Could it be that my brother is just pretending? '
This thought flashed through Xu Yueling's mind.
Feeling the gaze cast behind her, Xu Yueling couldn't help but shudder, shook her head slightly, and tried to throw the speculation out of her mind.
Entering the front yard, Xu Yueling looked around but didn't see the brazier.
After entering the middle courtyard, Xu Yueling saw a crackling brazier at the connection between the backyard and the middle courtyard. There were several branches beside the brazier.
Seeing Xu Yueling come in alone, her mother couldn't help but put her hands on her hips and widened her eyes:
"Why are you the only one coming back?
Where are your father and brother? ! "
"They are at the door. Let me come in first to see if the brazier is ready."
Xu Yueling shrank her neck and did not dare to raise her eyes when speaking.
"The things are ready, let them come in quickly!"
"Hey, I'll do it."
Xu Yueling lowered her head and answered, wandering back and forth in the courtyard like a busy waiter.
At this time, at the entrance of the courtyard.
Xu Fugui raised his arm and squeezed Xu Damao's shoulder hard.
"Stop the expression on your face. Don't do anything else but look gloomy. Our family is very upright. This time we were tricked by Yi Zhonghai. It's no big deal."
"I know dad, I'm going to laugh."
Xu Damao twitched the corners of his mouth stiffly, and in the next second, a smile that had been tempered for thousands of years and made people feel harmonious at first glance appeared.
Just for this smile, Xu Damao suffered a lot.
"Hey, by the way, you should smile.
No matter what you think in your heart, we just have to laugh now. "
Xu Fugui patted Xu Damao's shoulder heavily. Xu Damao naturally understood what this meant.
"After passing the brazier, your mother and I will go back.
As for Yueling?
Let her stay with you for a while until I find a job again. "
As Xu Fugui said this, he took back the hand that just fell on Xu Damao's shoulder.
Still hanging down by his legs, a smile similar to that of Xu Damao appeared at the corner of his mouth:
"Let's go to the hospital first.
It's already this late, and some people may be impatient to wait. "
Just watching the Xu family's father and son twitching their lips, they walked towards the courtyard one after another.
There was nothing yet in the front yard.
When he arrived at the entrance of Lao Jia's house in the middle courtyard, Xu Damao suddenly stopped.
"I'm going to step over the brazier here."
Xu Damao said without surprise or joy.
Just when Xu Damao was talking like this, there was a sudden sound of pots and pans clashing in Lao Jia's house with the door closed.
Looking at the disturbed curtains of Lao Jia's house and the motionless door, Xu Damao glanced up from the corner of his mouth.
"At this?"
Xu Fugui looked at Lao Jia's family and Xu Damao who refused to compromise.
Outsiders couldn't see it, so how could he, a father, not see the psychological impact these three months had on Xu Damao.
Take a deep breath and let it out slowly.
“Since you want to be here, we’ll be here.
Anyway, it was Jia Dongxu who owed it to our family. Even if he told the world about this matter, his family would ignore it. "
After saying this, Xu Fugui simply stopped.
As a rule, the two of them cannot turn back before coming out of the fire pit.
"Yue Ling! Go find two sticks and bring the brazier over with your mother."
"Hey, okay."
Xu Yueling responded.
Anyway, as long as she is not allowed to get into Xu Damao's troubles, she can do anything.
Not long after, the brazier was moved to the door of Lao Jia's house.
Xu Fugui walked in front and crossed the brazier first.
After him was Xu Damao.
After being beaten by a branch and taking away the bad luck, Xu Fugui turned around and said:
"I don't want bedding or anything else. It makes people uncomfortable just looking at it. Just throw it in front of Lao Jia's house and burn it.
Our family still has a lot of cotton that we saved in the past. It was originally for you to prepare for your wedding, so you might as well use it now. "Xu Damao didn't reply, but nodded in response.
At this moment, Xu Damao's eyes were fixed on the window of Lao Jia's house.
If I read it correctly, the curtains just moved several times.
Xu Fugui and his wife left.
Only Xu Yueling and Xu Damao were left in the room.
"Brother, do you still want to go to the factory today?"
Xu Yueling brought a cup of tea over. They had a lot of good stuff, and they could still get some tea leaves.
"In the factory? Of course I have to go, but before that, I have to go see Zhao Lihong."
Xu Damao picked up the tea cup and blew on the tea leaves floating on it.
Breathing in the scent of tea greedily, it wasn't until this moment that Xu Damao felt that he had really walked out of it.
"Ah, Zhao Lihong."
Xu Yueling pursed her lips and wanted to say something, but she didn't dare to continue.
After thinking about it for seven or eight seconds, he simply gave up the desire to speak.
After bringing the pre-heated meal to Xu Damao, Xu Yueling took off her satchel from the hanger.
"Brother, please eat first. I only took the morning off and now I have to go to school.
I have put the change of clothes at home on your bed, and the bath tickets have also been put together.
Although I don't know why you went to find Zhao Lihong, but no matter what, you have to clean yourself up. "
Xu Yueling put her backpack on her back and said as she walked.
By the time she reached the door, she had just finished speaking.
Passing by Lao Jia's house.
The previous brazier had been moved away, leaving only the burnt charcoal ash poured at the door and the burn marks on Xu Damao and Xu Fugui's bedding.
After looking at Banggan who was lying on the window sill, Xu Yueling raised her head and left.
inside the house.
Qin Huairu squatted on the ground, her eyes dull, and she curled up.
Next to the kang, next to the sewing machine.
Jia Zhang took the work in a leisurely manner. In the bamboo basket at her hand, there were five or six similar shoe soles.
Even though there are just a few, it is already all the achievements of Jia Zhang in the past three months.
When I don't use a good sewing machine, I just work on it bit by bit.
Even if Jia Dongxu goes in now, the cost of food and clothing will still squeeze Qin Huairu, who sews pockets for the garment factory.
While holding the soles of her shoes, Mrs. Jia Zhang also tilted her ears to listen to the sounds outside the door.
"Grandma! Xu Yueling in the backyard is out."
Bangge’s childish voice came:
"Grandma, Xu Yueling is gone, can I go out to play?
The man in the alley next door said he could take me to play today! "
Before Jia Zhang could reply, Qin Huairu stepped forward and held the stick in her arms:
"Hey, BangGeng, you are a good boy, let's not play with the rest of the gang, okay?
Let's stay at home and watch mom and your grandma work. "
Bangge shook his head stubbornly, his body constantly resisting:
"I don't want it, I don't want it! I'm going to play with the pigs. There's no one in our alley to play with, so I'm going to play with others!"
"Be good, BangGeng, let's not go play.
As long as you behave well, when your salary is paid at the end of the month, my mother will buy you meat, okay? "
Qin Huairu held the stick and said aggrievedly.
Ever since the news about Jia Dongxu spread, the life of the old Jia family has been getting worse day by day.
Even children who have no sense of right and wrong, no one wants to get together with Bangge.
"Can you really eat meat?
But I haven’t eaten the roast duck I mentioned last time.
Also, I talked about eating meat last month, but most of it ended up in my grandma’s stomach, and I didn’t even take a few bites. "
After hearing what Banggeng said, Qin Huairu's eyes couldn't help but turn red.
Not to mention it is a good idea, even she, a pregnant woman who is already pregnant, has not received any nutritional supplements in the past few months.
As the belly bulges more and more.
Silly Zhu's lunch boxes are rarely delivered to her.
Without Shazhu's help, Jia Zhang, a mother, refused to give up her family wealth.
Qin Huairu's stomach was feeling famine every moment during this period.
Qin Huairu said nothing. Jia Zhang glanced at Banggeng and muttered dissatisfiedly:
“What’s wrong with eating some meat? I’m already this age, what’s wrong with eating some meat?
Besides, does it have anything to do with me if Bangge doesn’t have enough to eat?After all, isn’t it Qin Huairu who is useless as a mother? !
If your hands and feet are too slow, you can't make much money sewing pockets for people.
And that silly Zhu, he is also heartless. He eats such good food every day. When he comes home and heats up the food, the whole courtyard can smell the aroma.
It tastes so delicious, I don’t know how to take it to honor this old man like me. "
Jia Zhang said in an unclean manner.
Qin Huairu has heard these words countless times in this month.
Qin Huairu hugged Banggan and covered his ears with both hands:
"Mom! What's the use of all this?
I make less money, so can't you do more work?It’s not like Director Wang from the street didn’t assign odd jobs to our family.
I'm not allowed to touch the sewing machine at home, so you can touch it at the head office.
If we add some shoe soles every month, won’t our family have enough money to buy meat for Bangge? !
I still have a big belly, so I can still do some work now, but what will happen in a few months?
If we don’t want to use our money, I won’t be able to work by then. Our family can’t live by drinking the northwest wind, right? "
