Seeing Su Aobai not speaking, Ye Wanru thought that he knew he was wrong, and there was pride in his eyes, and he reached out again to take this new year's item from Su Aobai.
There were many cotton and linen factory workers in their alley. Today, the factory distributes new year goods. After receiving the item, many people rushed home to store it. Under their show and their families, the alley Everyone here knew how rich New Year items from the Cotton and Linen Factory this time were.
Ye Wanru remembered the bag of seafood that Su Aobai had brought home some time ago. I heard that it was given to him when the people in the motorcade asked him to fix the car. There was a piece of dried squid in it as long as his arm and palm were small.How could he handle seafood?He sliced pieces of dried squid and steamed them as he cooked rice.
The freshly cut squid coming out of the pan is already hot. The withered flesh of the squid absorbs water vapor and is much more viscous. You can tear it into pieces and eat it, or you can eat it straight away. , full of fresh and sweet taste, is enough to make people forget about masseter muscle fatigue.
This type of dried squid is much more palatable than the expensive and often depleted squid sold in convenience stores. You do not need to add any spices. The salty taste of seafood and its own general taste are the highest. delicacy .
I heard that eating seafood nourishes the brain. Ye Wanru was reluctant to eat more of the squid before. Su Aobai wanted to use it for drinking, but she lied to him for various reasons. The squid was so large that it was almost half the size of the Dry enamel sink, almost all of which went into his son's stomach.
Su Jiabao's food was delicious and sweet, and even after she finished eating dried squid, she still chased after him, unfortunately, it was very difficult for them to buy dried squid of the same quality here.
When Ye Wanru heard that there were also dried squid in the New Year items, he immediately thought of the fellow who gave Aobai a gift of thanks to Su Aobai earlier. This year's cotton and linen factory seafood will most likely be packed by her, and the one sent to Aobai is herself.
In that case, the squid in the seafood box was supposed to be almost the same as the one Su Aobai brought home last time.Ye Wanru had decided to steam half of it today in order for Dabao to satisfy his hunger.
In addition, there are fruits, all kinds of sugar tickets and meat tickets... This year is a good year again.
Seeing the obedient man in front of him who was persuaded by him, Ye Wanru was proud of his own charm, but also regretted his original choice.
He knew what the people in the alley talked about him, saying that he was a vixen, a man died, and he could still seduce his brother-in-law while his brothers were still alive. the law is good.
They did not know that she and Su Aobai had a relationship before marrying into the Su family.
Few people knew that Ye Wanru and Su Aobai were classmates in junior high school. At the age when they first fell in love, the two had a crush on each other, and they almost broke through the window paper. Unfortunately, in the third year of junior high school year, Ye Wanru's mother worked in the factory, when her hands were injured, the family did not dare to ask outsiders to take over, so Ye Wanru dropped out of school and joined the factory where his mother worked as an apprentice. The seeds of love between the two had just been planted, but they were cut off before they could sprout.
They meet again on a blind date arranged by a matchmaker.Ye Wanru and Su Aobai briefly recognize each other.
Compared to the excitement of his original body, Ye Wanru was much more intelligent and philistine. She knew that after she got married, her job had to be left to her sister-in-law. For her future life, she must find a man with a formal job.
Back then, the Su family was still in charge of old man Su, and he only had one job. He had already said that he would hand over this job to the eldest son. As for the youngest son, we should work on the relationship and let him apprentice. As for when he could become a full-time worker, It depended on his own creation.
The job of Mr. Su is a truck driver, and the two sons of the Su family have learned the driving skills and repair the car from him, but the job of the truck driver is a piece of gold, without giving way to Mr. Su, the, even if Su Aobai was able to find an apprentice it was definitely not a favorable position in the transportation team.
Ye Wanru's appearance was still very good, with big breasts and a big butt, known as a handsome figure in that era, and Su Aobai's older brother also caught him a glimpse.
On one hand is the truck driver of the future, and on the other is an old classmate who has a vague crush on school days but has not seen him for years, and the future is uncertain. Ye Wanru chose the former without thinking about it.
If not for the accident of the older brother of his original body, Ye Wanru would have never regretted this choice.
But who made him unlucky, the man died not long after marrying Su's house, and there was still a child in his stomach.
At that time, the younger brother of the Christmas family was married to his wife, and there was no place for him to sleep in the house, if the child was abandoned and remarried, he said, then he must choose a man who is also married and has children. . The condition may not be as good as home.
If the child is born, the father-in-law must remember his kindness. The parents of the Su family were life-long drivers, and he had raised a lot of money. Ye Wanru had never worried about food and drink since he married into the Su family.
If she gave birth to a son this time, with her father-in-law's preference for the eldest son, Ye Wanru had the confidence to coax all the family treasures in his hands.
Moreover, she also felt that her married brother-in-law had an unforgettable old relationship with her ...
Ye Wanru was an intelligent woman, she instantly judged which choice was most beneficial to her, now it seemed that even though she made the wrong choice for the first time, she had made the wrong choice, she would lead to the same destination with different routes, and that would not have happened long before her husband was still a truck driver with a formal job.
Ten or twenty years later, the eldest treasure of his family would take over the work of Su Aobai As for the children born to Su Aobai, Ye Wanru did not notice them at all.
Feeling satisfied with the future, Ye Wanru's fingertips had touched several bags of goods in Su Aobai's hands.
This time he failed again.
Su Aobai pulled her hand back!
Ye Wanru's heart skipped a beat, and he finally willingly looked away from the luxurious New Year items, then looked at Su Aobai's face.
It was still a familiar face, but his eyes did not seem to have the obsessions and follies he was familiar with.
Ye Wanru raised his heart, and when he looked again, it seemed like it was just his own illusion, it was clear Su Aobai was looking at him with eyes so enthusiastic, and his eyes were full only at him.
But since she liked it, why didn't she give all of this new year's stuff to her and let her share it like before?
"Wanru, when I go to the countryside to visit my aunt tomorrow, I will bring this new year's stuff, so I will not stay home. Today, Tim Wang had just finished his shift. Isn't this the first time he has set such a long distance for me? It was said that it would be a year later, but if the factory was in a hurry to catch up on goods, I might have to travel long distances by the time of the Lunar New Year. I will go to Jiangsu and Zhejiang for at least ten days and a half months. , go see an old aunt, then invite someone to stay for a while, and help me take care of those three children."
Su Aobai seemed to care about you, please praise my expression quickly.
"Don't you always say that the three bastards disobey and often make you angry? I haven't been here this whole time. If old aunt is watching, they won't bother you, so I can be sure. And when old aunt comes, she can help you." You do household chores, and you don't have to worry about the water being too cold in the winter and the cuts on your hands." WEB."
Not far from there, the older Su Xiangli and the second son Su Xiangmin listened with pierced ears, and the third son was young, still tenaciously digging out the raw yam with his small teeth.
Hearing Lao Tzu's words, the brothers were filled with hatred.
Their father was blind, he listened and believed, and was fascinated by this woman Ye Wanru.In this family, how dare they make Ye Wanru angry, Ye Wanru, it was obvious the other party was deliberately provoking trouble and trying to make him hate them.
As for the hand wound, it made no sense.
When their mother was still alive, their father was not so confused, and at that time Ye Wanru did not dare to go too far, but after his mother died, Ye Wanru did not, the woman only acts as a good aunt for a few days, helping their home.by washing, cooking, and cleaning Cleanliness, in front of their father, the, plays a good image of a gentle, virtuous and household woman. Life like this lasts for a few days. Ye Wanru used the excuse that Su Xiangli was not too young, and a good girl had to learn to do household chores ever since she was a child, let alone she was still the eldest brother, he said, she had to be a role model for her sisters, so all the housework fell on Su Xiangli.
In the winter, Ye Wanru only washed a few pieces of his own underwear, and Su Xiangli, a nine-year-old, washed all the other clothes near the well.
As for Ye Wanru, he even boiled a pot of hot water for himself, and carefully rubbed his thin little clothes with warm water, how could he be exposed to chilblains from the cold.
Su Xiangmin felt sorry for his sister. When the weather was cold, he learned from Ye Wanru to boil water, but all they had to wash was the thick clothes they wore every day. How can one or two pots of hot water be enough, and children do not do not think too much about things. Su Xiangli, who washed the clothes with hot water that day, did not suffer too much, but they accidentally finished off all the briquettes, so when they cooked at night, it was not too bad, they had to go to the aunt next door to borrow it.
Ye Wanru watched coldly as they boiled hot water during the day, and began to make trouble when their father returned at night.
The women were very expensive, and they finished all the briquettes after washing some clothes, they all washed in cold water since they were young, and none were as gentle as Su Xiangli.
He did not complain that the boy made a big fuss after washing a few pieces of clothes, he just felt sorry for Su Aobai's difficulty in making money, he said, but his own daughter doesn't even know how to feel sorry for him, an old man, and ruin him as he wishes.
These words made Yuanshen feel that the children in the family were indifferent, and also felt that Ye Wanru loved her very much, and the old love that rekindled instantly re-heated this old fireplace.
He did not think at all that Su Xiangli was wrong, In the memory of Yuanshen, his mother and wife who died not long ago did not even boil a few hot water pots while washing clothes in the winter, he said, and damage all the briquettes at home. .
Su Xiangli denied the use of hot water by Ye Wanru to wash his clothes, and Ye Wanru's denial became his misdirection.
The brothers were beaten that day, and from then on, they never dared to boil hot water to wash clothes.
Ye Wanru became anxious upon hearing Su Aobai's words Like Aunt Wang on the front page, he was shocked by the amount of information in this section.
Su Aobai actually wanted to travel far away!
In fact, he had always wished for Su Aobai to open a long-distance path, as the long-distance path was full of oil and water, he said, like the dried squid that others had given him before.If the person who opened the path was Su Aobai, his large family treasure would have been hungry, the seafood was depleted, and the, so there is no need to be happy for a few pieces of dried squid in New Year goods.
Moreover, if he did not return home for ten days and a half months on the long-distance path, he would have more opportunities to discipline the three little ones, he said, in order to save them from delusions in the future and seize property with him. The great treasures of the family, unlike now, Su Ao Bai returned home every night, and under his watch, was, he always had to consider some action when doing something.
Also for the last reason, Ye Wanru was unhappy with the old aunt who suddenly came out of Su Aobai's mouth, and he didn't want an elder in the house to accuse him.
"Old aunt, which old aunt? I've never heard of it before. She has no relationship with our family, is she willing to come and help the kids and do the housework?"
Right now, Ye Wanru did not care about this box of New Year items.
"You don't know it's normal. It's not our relatives. That's Huifen's mother's cousin, a martyr. Some children have died. Now he lives alone in the countryside. If we promise to give him a pension in the future, he will definitely want to come and help with the baby."
Su Aobai said happily.
"I asked someone to ask me before. The old woman is in good health. He's still working all day. When she came home, she could definitely take care of the children. Now hiring a babysitter could make a lot of Auntie money If she was in good spirits, she could at least take care of us for another ten or twenty years. At that time, we will provide for him in old age, and he will be replaced mostly as a martyr if he is seriously ill."
Su Aobai spoke of his calculations, Ye Wanru was currently not at all happy that there would be an old nanny in the family, instead, the veins on his forehead twitched.
Old aunt Huifen!
Hui Fen was the late wife of Su Aobai.
Wasn't that the real aunt of the three boys? Can you stand by their side because they are close relatives of the three boys?
"No, I've had enough at home. The old woman was old, so why bother plotting against her. After all, she's not the child's grandmother, so she probably won't come and take care of the child." for you."
Ye Wanru hurriedly wanted to dispel Su Aobai's thoughts.
On the other hand, the eyes of Su Xiangli and Su Xiangmin sparkled upon hearing what I said.
"I'm afraid of your hard work."
"No, no, no, I'm not afraid of hard work. In fact, it wasn't too tiring to bring Xiang Li and the others along. You can calm down and leave the boy to me."
Ye Wanru could not let such a big problem come to his house.
"No, I can't see you tired."
"I'm not tired!"
"Don't you say you're tired before? Stop persuading me."
"What are you afraid of? I can still endure it. In addition, the children were a little older and wiser than before. You can be sure to drive long distances and hand the kids over to me."
"Being able to withstand this fatigue means you're still tired."
…
Two people came and went, one wanted to persuade the other to change his mind, and the other wanted to persuade the other to accept his own method.
Ye Wanru suddenly felt tired.
I knew before that Su Aobai was stupid, but I didn't realize that he was still stubborn, he made up his mind, even if he lowered his body and persuaded him, he wouldn't change his mind.
"I'm not really tired. I can do it myself."
"Is taking care of the kids exhausting? Otherwise, why do you always say that Xiang Li is always mad at you?"
Another round.
As soon as these words came out, Ye Wanru instantly did not dare to stop Su Aobai.
It seemed like she would definitely go to the countryside tomorrow, and now Ye Wanru could only pray that old aunt Su Aobai said she would reject her proposal, an old lady.
Moreover, what the man said inside out was that he loved her, as long as the other party's heart was with her, she was definitely invincible.
*****
A few bags of New Year items did not reach Ye Wanru's hands in the end, Su Aobai brought him back to the room, and placed the items on top of the closet in the room.
Such a height, even if Su Jiabao stepped on the bench, she was unable to reach it.
At dinner, Su Aobai meets the Su family's precious eldest granddaughter, a plump and handsome boy.
This poor niece, who had no father in her heart since she was a child, weighed only five catties when she was born, wearing a new and thick padded jacket, her ten fingers white and soft, without calluses, and he was nimble. holding a few dishes on the dining table The meat sliced on the plate was swallowed in a large mouthful.
Her health and confidence fueled the Su Xiangli brothers at the same dining table as the outsiders.
"Xiang Min, Xiang Yan, quickly eat."
The eldest sister, Xiang Hong, quickly picked up a few pieces of meat for her younger sister who was not good at using chopsticks.
The best food they ate in a day was dinner, because most of the time, Su Aobai would come back for dinner, and he would take care of lunch at the factory.
When Su Aobai was around, Ye Wanru would not go too far, at least the two of them would not eat dry food, let Su Xianghong and his brother drink diluted food, at most when they served rice, rice, and the rice in Su Jiabao's bowl was less full of yams, but there were more yams and less rice in their bowls.
This meal, Su Xiangli would be full, and he would hastily put good food into the bowl of himself and his sisters.
"Xiang Hong, if you like meat, Auntie will buy more next time, and you can keep it for your cousin. He weighed five pounds and three taels when he was born, and his body was weak. Don't look at him, but the inside is empty. The doctor said, he you have to make up for it.
Su Xiang Lido took out two pieces of meat, and Ye Wanru spoke.
Su Xiangli lowered his head and rolled his eyes, he always drew a big cake for him next time, the next time he flanked the meat.
But after Ye Wanru said this, Su Xiangli stopped sticking out his chopsticks to patronize the meat dish.Before Ye Wanru opened his mouth, he took out a few pieces of meat and kept them.
Su Aobai did not speak, maintained his original character design, and watched the scene in silence.
Just wait until the old lady is invited.
*****
The old aunt Su Aobai said was Yu Xiaomei, and when she brought the items to the countryside, Yu Xiaomei was working on her private land.
The last time they met was in the year of Su Xiangyan's birth. Yu Xiaomei once came to see her cousin and niece who had just given birth. When Hui Fen died, Yu Xiaomei had just received news of the death of her youngest son. He wasn't a soldier, so he wasn't present at the funeral.
The two sides were actually not too close, it was Su Aobai who introduced his identity, and Yu Xiaomei remembered it.
After knowing the reason for Su Aobai's visit, Yu Xiaomei's first reaction was to refuse.
To be honest, she really felt lonely alone, but when she was young, war broke out, and there were not many relatives left in her generation, Huifen's mother, her cousin, was already considered a close relative.
If Hui Fen was still alive, the old woman might be willing to help him take care of the child, but now that Hui Fen was gone, the cousin and daughter-in-law in front of him were young, and he could remarry. pretty soon. She was a relative of a woman who used to be just to please others. I hate that.
"Auntie, I really can't find anyone, so I came to beg you."
Su Aobai looked at the old woman in front of him, he was a very well-behaved old man, although he was alone now, he was still dressed meticulously.
His hair was neatly combed to the back of his head, and the broken hair on his forehead was tied with thin black hairpins, the cotton jacket on his body was remade from an old military uniform, with fine seams, and was perfectly fitted. the cuff may have been scrubbed hard, the fabric damaged, and stitched back with leftover material to thicken it. Except for muddy shoes, there are no traces of dirt on the top and bottom. These are old shoes that are very clean women.
"I'm getting married, and my partner is my sister-in-law."
Su Aobai spoke about the problem he encountered.
The old woman was quite stable, and she only raised her eyebrows when she heard such explosive news.
"My brother died early, my sister-in-law gave birth to a posthumous child, and stayed home to look after him. Before she died, my father still held my hand and asked me to take care of my sister-in-law and my niece. It's been half a year since Huifen died. I'm alone. It was uncomfortable for a big man to bring three children, and thanks to my brother-in-law for helping me, one of us was a widower, the other was a widow, she said, and he brought my own nephew. A bit ugly, but just to watch the fun, and when they say it's annoying, it's over.
In front of the old woman, Su Aobai expressed her feelings to Ye Wanru as respect to her sister-in-law, and made a choice after considering the pros and cons of their remarriage.
"I always thought it was good. I don't need to worry about my brother-in-law remarrying, and my stepfather treating Jiabao badly, either, and I don't have to worry about the woman I married anymore secretly oppressing Xiang Li and the others. After all, I know my sister-in-law very well. He's not like that. Small type men, but—"
This is the turning point.
“Recently, after word broke out that I was getting married to my sister-in-law, some of the people I was friends with asked me to think about it and think about it for my children. The meaning behind those words seemed like maybe Wannru was not very kind to the three of them. I don't want to believe it in my heart. Wanru must have loved his own son more, but he should not have criticized Xiangli and the others, after all, he was also his nephew and nephew. Believe it or not, I always hide it in my heart. I'm a little worried about this matter, and I'll travel a long way this time."
Su Aobai sincerely looked at the old woman in front of him.
"You are the child's aunt, and you have also trained the Aijun brothers and the others. I believe in your character. I'm just asking you to help me look after these kids when I leave the car. Anyways...By the way all right, help me see what Wanru looks like."
When Su Aobai mentioned her sacrificed son, Yu Xiaomei fell silent.
Only ten days and a half months, and not taking up much trouble, the fields could also be temporarily entrusted to the people close to the village.
Su Aobai's words were correct, she was the child's real aunt, and she also hoped that these children would live well.
Yu Xiaomei finally let go.
Right now, he still felt that he would only stay at Su's house for ten days and a half months.
*****
Yu Xiaomei did as she said, as she did not know when Su Aobai would be told to go on a business trip, so she simply packed some luggage and came over. leaving them intact I brought them back.
Su Aobai refused, and the old woman said that since everything was given to her, she wanted to take it to her aunt and granddaughter whom she had not met several times, she said, and he has no right to stop it and come back.
The little old lady was neatly dressed and followed Su Aobai to the alley at the entrance of the alley, she saw three skinny monkeys facing off against a fat boy.
"Jia Bao, Xiang Li Xiang Min Xiang Yan."
Su Aobai called out some children, and Yu Xiaomei immediately identified them.
Yu Xiaomei:? ? ?
His three biological children were thin like bamboo poles, and his niece who was not his was fat like a pig that had just been killed in their village, does she still need someone to tell her that the woman she chose had treated her own children badly?
Yu Xiaomei looked at her nephew and daughter-in-law who looked quite smart.
In fact, if he doesn't need his eyes, he can donate them to those in need.
