marriage is natural

Chapter 427
He Wei thought it was the second uncle or the second aunt who came.

Because her mother said before going out that the second uncle and his wife went to Wenzong Temple in Haicheng to worship Hu Jieying, and picked up He Xin on the way, and they agreed to go back to Hejiabu today, and they would definitely come from home when they returned.Unexpectedly, the cat saw He Meimei, covering half of her face with one hand, and kept ringing the doorbell of her house with the other.

"Sister Meimei?" He Wei opened the door, only to notice that He Meimei's right cheek was swollen and red, "You are..."

"My dad beat him. He's still losing his temper downstairs right now, don't mind if I go in and hide." He Meimei rolled a hard-boiled egg wrapped in gauze on her swollen cheeks.Although it was embarrassing to let my cousin know about being beaten, but when I thought about the 15 foreign debts on my head, and my cousin's Linglong dog that could sell at least 20, it was no longer a matter of face.

He Wei heard what she said, and asked her to come in sideways.

"Is the floor heating in your house? It's so warm!" As soon as He Meimei entered the house, it felt like spring had come, and she breathed out comfortably.

The underfloor heating has only been turned on for two days in her house so far, and her mother is heartbroken about the gas bill, so she insists on turning it on when the maximum temperature is below five degrees.

But in the winter of Hejiabu, it is rare for the maximum temperature to be lower than five degrees, unlike in the north, where the maximum temperature is more than ten degrees below zero.The temperature in Hejiabu is six to seventy-eight degrees, which looks warmer than in the north, but staying in an unheated room does not know how cold it is, and the coldness penetrates into the bones.Even if you turn on the small solar electric heater, you can only cool your hands and feet, and there is no way to be as warm as a spring like a floor heating room.

He Wei went to the kitchen and made two cups of hot milk tea.The milk tea is a gift brought back by grandma Xu's elder brother who went abroad for business. The authentic English milk tea tastes great.

Passed a cup to the cousin, held a cup himself, took a sip, and said: "The floor heating actually doesn't cost much gas. I calculated that if it is turned on every day, the gas cost of a month is about [-] for an area of ​​about [-] square meters." It’s much cheaper than turning on the air conditioner or electric heater all day.”

He Meimei pouted and said, "I'll start the car when I get back, at worst, let my mother read a few times..."

As she said that, she looked up at the decoration of He Wei's house.

This is not the first time she has come here. She went home during the summer vacation and followed her grandma to visit once, but at that time she thought that the decoration had not been finished yet, but now she is still so simple.In the huge living room and dining room, there is nothing but sofa coffee table, dining table and chairs. It is not like your own home. There are food cabinets, exhibition cabinets, sideboard cabinets, TV combination cabinets, corner wine cabinets, and Duobao Pavilion-shaped dining tables. As for the living room partition, as long as the furniture that she thought was good-looking appeared in the model room, she asked her mother to make a set.Although it is made of ordinary solid wood, it still gives people the taste of mahogany furniture after painting. Don't be too grand and elegant.

He Meimei's superior and arrogant attitude came up again, and she raised her chin and said, "Why don't you buy more furniture and decorations in your house? It feels so strange to be so empty. If you don't make a TV combination cabinet, you should get a background wall." , so directly hang the TV on the wall, even though it is covered with wallpaper, it is still so monotonous..."

He Wei smiled and said, "My house only comes back for a few days during the holidays. Why is it decorated so luxuriously?" Besides, it's not that her house can't afford furniture. What does her father do?Carpenter!Want what furniture will not fight.

The main reason is that there are many people who come to the house for dinner during the Chinese New Year. Although the dining table is a six-person solid wood round table, her father also built a round table that can seat 15 people. All the members of the He family were not afraid of being unable to sit down.It's just that in this way, the furniture in the dining room can't be placed too much, otherwise it will look crowded.Fortunately, the kitchen cabinets are custom-made with upper and lower cabinets on two walls, and the built-in shoe cabinet behind the entrance door is also very spacious, enough to store trivial items.

He Meimei shrugged. She didn't really come to visit. She didn't have time to chat with her cousin, so she turned to look for the puppy: "I heard that you brought a puppy back. Where is it? Take it out for me to see." Look, I like puppies the most." After finishing speaking, I saw Little Pearl, squatting on the soft cushion in front of the sliding door on the balcony, gnawing bones.

He Meimei was overjoyed, as it turned out to be the Linglong dog posted by her cousin on Weibo, 20 yuan, now there is no need to carry a heavy debt for the New Year, it is best to hold it today to exchange the IOU.

He Wei added a spoonful of cool water to the dog bowl, signaling the little guy to drink some water.Floor heating is warm in the room, but it is also easy to dry, so drink more water.

He Meimei originally wanted to tell the truth to her cousin, and then asked her to agree to take the puppy away, but seeing that her cousin is so kind to the puppy, what if she disagrees?Wouldn't it be nothing to fetch water from a bamboo basket...

Thinking of this, his eyeballs rolled and he had a new idea.

Xue Hewei squatted in front of the puppy, watching it gnaw bones and grind its teeth, its saliva was like an unscrewed faucet, dripping wet the white cushion, and she felt extremely disgusted.What do you like most about puppies, pure nonsense!She is most afraid of this kind of furry beast, who knows if there are fleas, if it gets on her body, it will be disgusting... But she has to be very happy on the face: "Wow! So cute! Where did you get it, Weiwei?" of? I really want to raise one too."

"It's a gift from an elder of mine. It's said to be quite rare. It's hard to get it in pet stores." He Wei replied along the hair on the back of the little guy's neck, and then asked casually: "Sister Meimei, I remember that you didn't like cats before. Is it a dog's?"

He Meimei choked for a moment, stroked her hair unnaturally, and said, "People change. If you didn't like it when you were young, it doesn't mean you won't like it when you grow up." Then she pretended to look at the sun outside, and persuaded attentively: "The weather is so good, why don't you take it for a walk? The little animal is not healthy at home. If you don't have time, why don't I take it to play. There are many dog ​​walkers in the community, and they can make friends. "

He Wei shook her head: "No need, Sister Meimei, just went for a walk before lunch, and then I will take it down to play after dinner. It is still small, and it will get tired and wild if the interval is short. It will not be good in the future. Bring it."

He Meimei hit a wall, feeling upset and anxious, 20, when will it come to her.I was also annoyed that the end of the new year was approaching, and pet shops were basically closed. Otherwise, if I took it for money, I would not only be able to pay off the debt, but also get tens of thousands of dollars more.Lin Shuang and the others have all changed their mobile phones, but they didn't change them themselves. If things go well this time, they will go buy a new mobile phone after the new year...

As for how to explain to the cousin that the puppy is gone, in He Meimei's opinion, it is not a problem at all, just make up an excuse, such as running away, being snatched away by the dog catcher, etc.Anyway, it was given by someone else, so if you lose it, just throw it away, so you won't be able to blame yourself.

He Meimei has a good plan, but she has been unable to find a chance to use her mobile phone.

Because the second uncle's family came, and bought a lot of cooked food and snacks from Haicheng, and they said they were having dinner at the third uncle's house.

He Meimei was in a hurry at that time, how could she find a chance to take the dog away with so many people around to admire and tease the rare dog.

Fortunately, grandma was also invited, so she took advantage of the opportunity to stay and eat.I thought about finishing the meal early so that I could take the puppy downstairs alone, but the meal was not finished, and it was raining in the blind old days!And the rain is not small, so the dog walk after dinner is naturally cancelled.

He Meimei's silver teeth were almost crushed.

"What's the matter with He Meiqin today?" After dinner, seeing off the elders and the others, Hemu asked her daughter while sweeping the floor, "Did you come up by yourself in the afternoon? Was that face slapped by your uncle? According to your grandma, it seems that you went out to play with your classmates." There was some trouble, I didn't say anything about it, but at noon, looking at your uncle's face, it was probably not a good thing. I dragged your uncle to her mother's house in the afternoon, and I didn't come back until dinner time. I don't know if I'm back now ..."

He Wei washed the dishes and chopsticks, came out and wiped the dining table again, and replied: "She didn't tell me the reason, she just said that she was beaten by uncle, so she came up to hide."

Hemu chuckled, shook her head and said, "It seems that your uncle is very angry this time. But think about it, he is 19 years old and still looks like a child. According to your second aunt, Apart from eating and sleeping, I don’t do anything at home, and the monthly expenses are not small, 5000 yuan can’t afford it..."

He Wei laughed: "How did the second aunt know? Isn't sister Meiqin not coming home very often?"

"I came back and lived for more than a month this summer. It is estimated that no one asked her to film, and the living expenses were not enough. If your aunt won't give it to her, where else can she go besides home. During the period, your second aunt will visit your grandma. I have been there a few times, saying that she is so lazy. She sleeps late in the morning and doesn’t get up until lunch. In the afternoon, she either goes shopping and buys this or that, or sits on the sofa and watches TV. After watching for a long time, her buttocks don’t move. Your grandfather Seeing that it's raining and asking her to collect clothes, grandma will complain for a long time..."

Father He interjected: "Okay, we can chat for so long about things that have nothing to do with us, why are Dongzi and Yuanyuan going to bed? Did you arrange it? It's getting late, it's time to get ready for bed."

"It's been arranged early." Hemu put away the broom, and walked to his son's room while talking, "Yuanyuan sleeps on the bed, and Dongzi sleeps on tatami. I dragged the floor up and down several times, so I just put the tatami on it to sleep on." That's enough, the quilt has been dried..."

Seeing that her father was relieved, He Wei couldn't help laughing.But don't tear it apart, clean up the kitchen and dining room, and turn off the lights.

Perhaps the little Pearl Pot friend was tired of being teased by everyone, and now he was sleeping soundly in the fruit basket on the bottom of the soft towel, so he didn't move it to the bedroom. Anyway, the floor heating was turned on, and all rooms Warm as spring, no matter where you sleep.

However, just because I didn't move it to the bedroom on a whim, something happened.

The next day, He Wei got up and didn't see the pearl, so she asked He Mu who went downstairs to throw out the trash and went to the nearest vegetable market to pick some fresh vegetables: "Mom, where is the pearl? Didn't you take it downstairs?"

"Why did I take it downstairs? I went to the vegetable market. It was dirty and messy. When I brought it back, its white hair might be all black." The mother asked in surprise, "Why? It's not at home?"

"No. I didn't see it when I got up. Brother and Yuanyuan were still sleeping, but Dad got up. I heard that the pearl was gone, so I went downstairs to look for it."

"It can't be He Meiqin." Hemu frowned and said, "I happened to meet her when I was going out. She said that your grandma made a pot of bean tea early and told you to go down and drink it. I told you that you were still sleeping. She didn't get up yet, she just wanted to stay and wait, saying that if she didn't tell you to go down, your grandma would be upset. Because I had an appointment with your second aunt to go to the morning market, I didn't have time to spend time with her, and I thought there was nothing wrong at home. She will keep the stuff and wait. Do you think she took the pearl down for a stroll?"

He Wei thought of He Meimei's friendliness and joy to Pearl's little friend yesterday, and felt that this possibility was relatively high, but if she really took it down, she would come up after a while.

Unexpectedly, Father He searched around but couldn't find the puppy. When he returned home and heard what the mother said, he frowned and said, "Meiqin? No. I've looked around the whole neighborhood, and I didn't see anyone walking the dog. Yes. Could it be that Meiqin left without closing the door, and the little thing ran out by himself?"

"I'll go to Uncle's house to ask." He Wei stomped out of the house in light home cotton pajamas and floor slippers without her coat and shoes on.

Wo Mu was afraid that she would catch a cold, so she put on her coat and hurriedly chased her out: "Wei Wei, Mom will go with you."

The two mothers came to the old man's house, and the old lady answered the door. She heard that she was looking for her grandson, she narrowed her eyes and said, "Qinqin is very good today. Get up early in the morning and help me boil hot water and dry the sun." Clothes, she also said that she likes the bean tea I made, let me cook more, she went to ask you to come down and eat together. Just came back and said that you are still sleeping, let me stew the bean tea..."

"What about her?" He Wei interrupted the old lady anxiously and asked.

"I said I was going to exercise, so I think I'll be back soon. Come on, come on, you two eat first, don't wait for others, who knows how long you'll sleep, the old man and I have already eaten..."

He Wei and her mother looked at each other, and asked the old lady: "Grandma, does Miss Meimei bring a mobile phone when she goes out? Do you know her number?"

"I don't know if I brought her or not. I was in the bathroom when she went out, but I remember the number. I'll give it to you, 138..." After giving the number, the old lady asked suspiciously, "Weiwei, why are you so impatient?" Do you want to go shopping together? Qinqin hasn't had breakfast yet, she will definitely be back..."

He Wei didn't have the time to deal with the old lady, and didn't bring a mobile phone with her, so she simply borrowed the landline from her uncle's house to call He Meimei.

However, even after dialing a few times, it was "The number you dialed is turned off..."

The old lady saw that she couldn't get through the phone, so she slapped her thigh and remembered: "Her mobile phone was confiscated, and her ID card, student ID card, etc. She said she didn't ask for 15 yuan and won't get it back. , otherwise the boss wouldn't beat her to death..."

"Em, what are you talking about? 15 yuan?" Hemu turned around and asked.I vaguely feel that my puppy can't be found early in the morning and it has something to do with my eldest niece.She just said, how can someone who is usually too lazy to die be so hardworking today?Getting up early and helping the old lady with work, and even taking the initiative to go upstairs to ask me to go down to have bean tea, how can I say something?If you don't have anything to do, you can either rape or steal!
