Chapter 568: Holding Hands and Growing Old
My son said you weren't feeling well, so I poured hot water for you. ”
Qu Weiyang also looked inexplicable, his daughter-in-law was clearly fine, how could his son think that his daughter-in-law was uncomfortable?
At this time, Jiakang entered the house with hot water, "Mom, if you don't feel well, lie down."
Carrying so many things all the way back, you must be tired and sweating to let the wind blow, and you lie down and rest.
There are Jiayuan and Yushu in the meal, don't worry about other work, I'll do it. ”
Jiakang sent the hot water to Qiao Lian and said with concern.
"Son, mom isn't uncomfortable, I'm fine."
Qiao Lian's face was inexplicable, but looking at her son's concerned face, she was full of joy.
Look, his eldest son knows that he feels sorry for people, and he will know how to hurt his daughter-in-law if he has a daughter-in-law in the future.
But son, you can't just learn how to pour hot water, and you have to learn a little more in the future.
"Didn't you always shake your head just now? I thought you were making the wind blow uncomfortable, didn't you? ”
Jiakang was stunned, is my mother very good?
Qiao Lian suddenly wanted to laugh, because she wanted to understand how this misunderstanding had happened.
But in front of her son, she couldn't explain it clearly, so she could only cough lightly twice.
"Well, I was a little dizzy just now, but it'll be fine now." Qiao Lian lowered her head and drank saliva.
"Okay, go to the kitchen and see, is the dinner ready for the evening? I'll just take a break. ”
Jiakang watched his mother drink water, then took the cup and turned to go out, as soon as Jiakang came out of the house, Qiaolian couldn't help but start laughing.
At this time, there was no one else in the house, and the old lady led the three small ones to play in the outhouse, and there were only Qu Weiyang and Qiaolian in the house.
Qu Weiyang couldn't help but feel a little strange when he saw Qiao Lian smiling. "What the hell is going on?"
"I just remembered that our son has grown up after the sixteenth year of the year.
It is estimated that in a few years, I should marry a daughter-in-law and have children, and I should be a mother-in-law and a grandmother.
Hahaha, I scared the hell out of the thought.
You know I've always thought I was quite young, and it didn't take me a few years to become a grandmother, and I scared myself, and I probably shook my head subconsciously. ”
"I didn't think that Jiakang misunderstood, thinking that I was letting the wind blow, and my head was dizzy and uncomfortable." Qiao Lian still couldn't help but laugh non-stop.
When Qu Weiyang heard this, he was also laughing, "You, you don't know what you're thinking about in your head for a day, just thinking wildly."
It's a shame that you didn't say it in front of Jiakang just now, if you said this, he would definitely be embarrassed, and ran out with a red face. ”
"Well, the child is older, look at Jiakang Jiayuan, it will be almost sixteen in a blink of an eye.
When you married me, you were only fifteen, and fifteen or sixteen years have passed, and we are both in our thirties.
In another six or seven years, shouldn't you be a grandparent? When Qu Weiyang thought of that situation, he also felt a little emotional.
"But you're really not old, you're young, you don't look old at all, and you haven't changed much like when I came back to see you."
Qu Weiyang sat down next to Qiao Lian, stretched out his hand and pulled Qiao Lian's hand, the two of them intertwined their fingers and smiled at each other.
"I have to hold these hands for the rest of my life, and the two of us will walk together for another three or five or five years."
Is this an affectionate confession?
Qiao Lian was in a good mood, looked up at Qu Weiyang, and took advantage of the fact that there was no one in the room to quickly kiss him on the face.
"Well, although it's an old husband and wife, this love story is still beautiful, and I still love to hear it."
The two have been separated for so long, if they don't want to panic, it would be a lie, Qu Weiyang let his daughter-in-law grow grass in her heart.
But I haven't eaten dinner yet, so I can't do anything. "Let's have a good talk in the evening."
While talking, there was movement from the outhouse, "Dad, Mom, it's time to eat, dinner is ready, hurry up and eat." ”
It was the Jiayuan sisters who cooked the meal and called Qiaolian and his wife out to eat.
So the couple came out of the house, and the big guys sat around the table, and the food was already on the table.
A pot of salted mustard greens and potatoes, a pot of cabbage, a large plate of sliced radishes with a bowl of sauce, and a plate of pickles.
In the winter of the Northeast, it is rare to see green leafy vegetables, which are basically radishes, cabbage and potatoes.
The diligent daughter-in-law dried some dried vegetables in the summer, pickled two jars of sauerkraut and pickles in the autumn, and ate them with this.
In previous years, when there were workshops in the commune, there were tofu and vermicelli in winter, and the big guys could add two more tricks to cooking.
Nowadays, there is not enough food for people to eat, and the workshop has no raw materials at all, so it has long been suspended.
So the big guy's dinner table is even more monotonous.
Four dishes, the staple food is the cake, the golden bud rice flour cake, which is steamed very well at a glance, especially simmering.
Nowadays, there are very few people who can still eat pure bud rice flour cakes.
The pure grain cakes have a sweet aroma and taste more fragrant than white flour steamed buns.
"Mom, let's eat, there's nothing else at home, just these dishes.
Wait for tomorrow to stew sauerkraut and eat, our family has pickled three large jars of sauerkraut this year, and we have eaten a lot of this time, and there is less than one jar left. ”
Jia Yuan said as she handed over the dishes and chopsticks.
"Even if our family is good, there are still pure grain cakes to eat at this time.
We used to be at school, and the black cakes in the school cafeteria were limited, but then I heard that they also started to mix rice bran with bran. ”
Hearing the girl's words, Qu Weiyang and his wife couldn't help but sigh.
Yes, in this day and age, it is already the best life to be able to eat cakes with pure grain and no wild vegetables, rice bran and bran.
Fortunately, Qiaolian has a system in place, fortunately, their family worked hard a few years ago and saved a lot of points, which has finally come in handy now.
At the very least, the family does not go hungry and can maintain a certain standard of living.
"Well, you are all young, and it is the time to grow your body, and you can't lack food.
It's okay, with me and your dad, no matter what, we can provide you with enough food. ”
Qiao Lian sighed, in such a year, she could only try her best to give the children a little good conditions.
But life like before is certainly not guaranteed.
After all, no one else can eat enough, and if their family still has rice, white flour, and fish all day long, it will make people suspicious.
"Come, let's eat, I'll rest early after eating, and tomorrow is the New Year."
No matter what, this year is the first year that Yushu has come to our house, so we must celebrate and celebrate.
Let's make dumplings to eat tomorrow, which can be regarded as celebrating the end of your mother's study and picking up the wind for your mother. ”
Qu Weiyang didn't want to mention these things more, so he quickly changed the topic.
"Yes, yes, hurry up and eat, our family is thanks to your father and Yushu who have supplies, and everyone can eat enough.
Come on, you all use chopsticks to eat, and after eating, your mother will talk to you for a while. ”
Qiao Lian didn't like these heavy topics very much, so she changed the topic according to Qu Weiyang's meaning.
"Jiayuan, Yushu, you two have done a good meal, the cakes are steamed very well, and the dishes are also delicious.
Okay, it's all been experienced. Qiao Lian took the opportunity to praise her daughter.
