The Happiness of Rebirth in the 80s

Chapter 25

Liu Tao'er took a plate of dumplings that Gao Xiu'er brought her and went out quickly. She didn't plan to stay here any longer. After all, the child was still in the neighbor's house. If it wasn't for Bai Jing to pick trouble, she would have left long ago.

After leaving her husband's house, she went to Gao'ai country with a plate of pork ribs.Gao Aiguo and his wife were very happy to see her. Although Gao Mingming, a six-year-old leather monkey, was drooling over the plate of spare ribs, he thanked Liu Taoer and went to eat it with a cry.Gao Tiantian thinks she has grown up because she has started elementary school now, so even though she is very coveted, she still insists on sending Liu Taoer out of the house first.Liu Tao'er couldn't help sighing that the two children of the sister-in-law's family taught them very well.

Although the reform and opening up is now in place, people's living standards are still very low, that is, they only cut two catties of meat and eat it when they have guests at home. After all, not everyone has such a high salary as Gao Aimin. Jun I don't see that Gao Aijun and his wife are both serious public officials, but they still come back from time to time because of the difficult conditions at home.So the plate of meat that Liu Taoer sent was not bad.

It wasn't until Liu Taoer took the child back from Wang Guilan's house that she sat down at the dinner table and had a bite of food before she felt relieved.This human relationship is also a tiring job. She was used to being clean before, and basically stayed in her own yard behind closed doors or went to live in a village outside the city for a while. It is really uncomfortable to live the life of this era now. .Besides, this era is so different from the Great Yan Dynasty, she must always be careful not to let herself be exposed.

But Liu Tao'er, who was extremely tired and lay on the bed with his daughter early in the morning, didn't know that what he did today was quite surprising.

Wang Guilan's house next door
Sitting at the dining table, Yu Zhenhai saw the bowl of stewed pork ribs, and couldn't help but wondered, "Who brought this?" Yu Zhenhai knew his wife very well, and she couldn't bear to buy this expensive thing.In fact, it's not that the daughter-in-law is stingy, but that when the two got married, their parents didn't build a new house, so they allocated a room in the old house at home.When their son is born, of course they will come out to build a house. To build the house, the two owed a lot of foreign debts. In the past three or four years, they have risked their lives to pay off the money owed. How can the wife be willing to buy ribs? To eat, even if it is during the holidays, I just buy some of the cheapest pork to satisfy my hunger.

Wang Guilan put a piece of meaty bone for her husband in a bowl, and picked another piece of tender meat for her son Stinky. I had a child and wanted to bring food to Uncle Gao, so I asked her to put Tongtong here for a while. I didn't expect her to bring a bowl when she came to pick up the child."

Yu Zhenhai is not surprised to hear that, after all, it is like this in the countryside, anyone who cooks something delicious has to give the neighbors a taste, although Yu Zhenhai's family is poor, but he is very righteous and gets along with the neighbors around him not bad.Besides, he and Gao Aimin are good brothers, so there's nothing to be polite about.

He finished gnawing on the bone that Wang Guilan gave him, and said with a smile: "It's Aimin who is back, don't tell me, although his wife won't come, this pork rib is really good. It's very tasty." Yu Zhenhai has been a neighbor of Gao Aimin's family for several years, and he knows Liu Taoer well, he didn't think at all that this dish was sent by Liu Taoer himself, he thought it was Gao Aimin who asked her to delivered.

Wang Guilan was watching her son gnawing on a bone. Although Stinky Dan could eat anything at the age of four, she was still afraid that the bone would choke the child's throat, so she watched intently from the sidelines.As soon as her husband said this, she laughed: "Ah, Aimin is not at home, she is out of the car, and this is sent by Aimin's wife." Wang Guilan is also very strange, after all, Liu Taoer is not such a troublesome person , but she did indeed see Gao Aimin riding away this morning.

"Really, then this is so strange?" Now Yu Zhenhai was also surprised.

"It's not that it's so strange today. Aimin's daughter-in-law saw me today, but she smiled and called her sister-in-law. If she didn't know her very well, she would have thought she was a different person." Wang Guilan thought of Liu Taoer It seems strange to come to pick up the child.

"Maybe, who said it, but it's good if she understands something, and Aimin can be more relaxed." Although Yu Zhenhai was curious, his old man's thinking was much simpler and better than Wang Guilan's. Of course it's a good thing, and my brother can relax.

Wang Guilan is not the kind of person who talks a lot, and today is also very strange, so she just talked to her husband, and she didn't say anything more when she saw her husband say that.Seeing that the bowl of pork ribs had bottomed out, she picked up the bowl and gave some soup to the porridge for her husband and son. The pork rib soup was also very fragrant.It is said that a bowl of spare ribs is actually not a few pieces. Although Wang Guilan is not willing to eat a piece, the son and husband will soon disappear after a few chopsticks.Wang Guilan's eyes dimmed as she looked at her son who was full of oil and her husband who couldn't get enough of it. Her family had suffered a bit in recent years, but fortunately they had paid off their foreign debts, and in the future they could buy some meat for the head of the family and the stinky eggs to satisfy their hunger. .

high love country
Wu Lan waited on her son and daughter to sleep, and then climbed onto the kang. At this time, Gao Aiguo was already lying in bed.Gao Aiguo is the eldest. When he got married, he still earned work points in the village. Unlike Gao Aimin, who had retirement money in his own hand, although Gao’s mother loved her eldest son, there were still four children below her who were not married, especially her youngest. The distressed youngest son is still in school, so he didn't add any extra money, which was 800 yuan from Mr. Gao for marrying a wife and setting up a new home.

I gave Wu Lan's family 300 yuan as a betrothal gift, and the remaining 500 yuan is for the wedding, and it's nothing to add some people who live in their small family.Wu Lan was also the eldest in the family, and her natal family couldn't do much to the younger siblings, but the 300 yuan dowry was all given to her.Both of them know how to live, so they bought a bicycle and nothing else.Even the sewing machine was newly bought after the baby was born, and the days slowed down.But this TV set has never been bought, one is that it is too expensive, and the other is that tickets are not easy to get, so the two of them basically go to bed early at night except for hanging out, and today is no exception.

But even though she got under the covers, Wu Lan still didn't feel much sleepiness, so she poked Gao Aiguo next to her and said, "Aiguo, see if the second family is sensible enough to send us some ribs today."

Although Gao Aiguo agreed with his daughter-in-law's thoughts, he didn't want to talk about the rights and wrongs of his younger siblings, so he said, "What are you talking about, what is sensible, Tongtong is two years old, and now she is pregnant with another one, both of them are two. The mother of a child is already sensible."

"Okay, she's already sensible, and I don't know who asked me to persuade her all day long." Wu Lan knows her husband's temper, and he is a typical protector. As long as he is a member of the Gao family, No matter what it is, he will firmly protect it in his arms like a sweet potato, so he said with a smile.

Hearing what his daughter-in-law said, Gao Aiguo, who was originally not that confident, couldn't say anything.After all, what the daughter-in-law said is the truth, the second child's family is really poor in dealing with people, otherwise he would not always let his wife take care of him in the past.

"However, it's good for Tao'er to know more about things, so I can relax a bit in the future. Otherwise, I'll not only miss Xiu'er but also pay attention to my second son's house." Wu Lan sighed. It's not easy, the younger siblings are all married and have children, and they have to worry about whether the young couple can live a good life.

Gao Aiguo also knew that his daughter-in-law had been busy all these years, but they had many children at that time, and the adults had no time to care about them, so the older ones took care of the younger ones.It can be said that except for the elder sister who is not much different in age from him, the three below are all brought up by him. Seeing that they cannot survive, he has always been reluctant to let go, but there is not much to do now, wait Xiu'er got married this autumn and gave birth to a fat boy next year, so he can rest assured. After all, everyone is married and has children. How can he keep thinking about it? The two children in his family have also grown up. The two children saved money.At the beginning, his father saved the money for the five brothers and sisters to marry their daughter-in-law and the dowry money all his life. It is a bit late for him to start now. Besides, they are still young and he still points to his daughter-in-law to give him another son.That's another big expense.

So he took Wu Lan's hand and comforted him: "When Xiu'er gets married and has a son, we will be able to live in peace, and they all have families. Aimin and Aijun are even more capable than me. Let's How can I help you all the time. Don't worry, although I miss the younger brothers and sisters below, I put my family first, even if it's for Mingming and Tiantian, I can't always worry about them."

Hearing her husband's heart-to-heart reassurance, Wu Lan's heart was finally relieved.They have spent a lot of money for their younger siblings these years, and Patriotic is not a serious public official like the third child. Even when they are old, they still have a pension from the state.The money they earn is hard-earned money. Besides, the two children in the family are grown up. Tiantian will start the first grade this year, and she will start preschool next year. This is not a small fee.You can't keep dragging yourself down for a few younger siblings.

But her husband has such a temper, and she dare not persuade her. After all, although her husband is good to her younger siblings, she is also very kind to her natal younger siblings, and will try her best to help if any difficulties arise.She didn't have the confidence to say anything wrong about her husband.It's all right now, with her husband's guarantee, she will be able to sleep more peacefully in the future.
