Dressed up as a Real Mom - Chapter 7
After Wei Jianhua came back, one more person worked at home, and He Xiaoyun and Feng Qiuyue were still in charge of cooking.
At noon, they made a bacon-fried garlic seedlings with bacon saved during the Chinese New Year, a stir-fried squash, and a bowl of vegetable soup.
As usual, He Xiaoyun delivered the meal to Wang Chunhua and the others, and then went to the riverside. Wei Jianwei and Wei Jianhua were working at the same place.
Wei Jianhua looked like he followed the Wei family’s thick eyebrows and eyes, with the youthful vigor, and He Xiaoyun felt that by looking at him, he would be able to foresee what Wei Yuanhang will look like in the future at his age.
Unlike the rest of the Wei family’s reticence, Wei Jianhua speaks a lot, and Wei Yuanhang also resembles his younger uncle in this regard.
“Today’s meal is delicious, second sister-in-law and sister-in-law are really good at crafts.” He was obviously hungry and panicked, and he didn’t forget to flatter while eating.
He Xiaoyun felt that this kid was on the road more than someone next to him who only knew how to pick up rice, at least they knew how to eat soft mouths.
She listened with a sense of comfort, picked up the saucer containing the bacon, and swiped it into Wei Jianhua’s bowl. There was not much meat, but she was halfway through.
“Enough is enough, second sister-in-law, leave some for the second brother.” Wei Jianhua said hurriedly.
He Xiaoyun said: “It’s okay, your second brother will let you.”
Wei Jianhua laughed dryly and glanced at his second brother.
The second brother and the second sister-in-law have a bad relationship. He has always known about it. But this time when I came back, I always felt that the two of them were a bit strange. Seeing what the two of them were talking about, I really wanted to talk about strangers. There was no such subtle aura between strangers.
Yes, subtle.
Wei Jianhua highly praised the word he found in his heart.
Isn’t it subtle? When did the second sister-in-law be so enthusiastic about him in the past? He kept filling his bowl with meat. The meat was delicious. But if he eats more meat, the second brother has less meat. The second brother may not settle accounts with the second sister-in-law, but he will definitely ask him to settle the accounts.
As a follower who followed his second brother since he was a child, Wei Jianhua couldn’t understand his brother better.
Since childhood, every elder said that his second brother is a good boy, sensible and obedient. Only these children know that second brother fights can be fierce. In the past, the little gangsters in the commune loved to bully good children, but none of them dared. To mess with the second brother, those who used to have no eyesight were beaten in fear.
What makes the punks even more angry is that even if they lose a fight with their second brother and go to the elders to file a complaint, no one will believe it, because everyone in the brigade knows that the second brother of the Wei family is honest, how could it be possible? fight! Over time, the bad boys saw the second brother and walked around. Fortunately, as his younger brother, Wei Jianhua has hardly been bullied.
But not letting others bully him does not mean that the second elder brother will not bully himself. For example, at the moment, although the second elder brother doesn’t watch him when he eats, Wei Jianhua feels that he has been targeted because of the meat in the bowl.
He struggled hard, feeling that the meat was really fragrant, and fearing that if he ate it all, he would be cleaned up by his second brother.
Suddenly, he saw a familiar figure in front of him, and hurriedly changed the subject: “Isn’t that Teacher Zhang? She is also here to deliver food?”
He Xiaoyun looked at him. Not far away, there was a twenty-four-five-five young girl with two big braids. She looked very gentle. The young men and women who were eating next to her looked all the same. The people on the brigade were different. He Xiaoyun remembered that they were educated youths from the city.
Teacher Zhang in Wei Jianhua’s mouth, named Zhang Yurong, is a private teacher in the team’s elementary school. The current private teacher has almost the same meaning as the substitute teacher in the future.
This is nothing. Coincidentally, this Zhang Yurong was once Wei Jianwei’s blind date.
Speaking of **** words, Wei Jianwei is 28 years old this year. Four years ago, his age was even an older young man in the countryside. So Wang Chunhua arbitrarily gave him a match, and someone introduced Zhang Yurong, an educated youth.
Although the educated youth are from the city, there is no way out and there is no hope of returning to the city this year. Many people choose to marry and have children locally. Although Wei Jianwei was born in the countryside, he has been promoted by the army and the conditions are very good. It’s also fairly close.
The bad thing is that there is another original owner, He Xiaoyun, who is about the same age as Zhang Yurong, and looks slightly better than her. She has always been a sought-after object of young men in the brigade, but after Zhang Yurong came, many people compared the two of them and felt that Although the original owner is beautiful, his personality is not good, and he is not as literate as Zhang Yurong.
The original owner has always been so strong. Hearing this kind of remarks, he unilaterally took Zhang Yurong’s original opponent and tried to crush the opponent everywhere. When other people introduced Wei Jianwei to Zhang Yurong, the He family happened to be preparing to introduce him to the original owner, but the conditions were not as good as Wei Jianwei. When the original owner saw it, his heart suddenly became unbalanced. That’s why he later pretended to fall into the water and relied on Wei Jianwei.
After Wei Jianhua said that, he found that the atmosphere hadn’t improved, it seemed even stranger, and added: “Ms. Zhang taught me for a year. She played the violin really well, and she was very patient…”
While speaking, seeing that no one was answering, he was silent. After bowing his head and taking two bites of dinner, he remembered the entanglement between Teacher Zhang and his second brother and second sister-in-law. Wei Jianhua closed his eyes forcefully, wishing to slap himself a few times.
It’s true that which pot is not opened and which pot is raised. If the second sister-in-law quarrels with the second brother because of this, he may really be able to apologize.
He Xiaoyun didn’t have any thoughts after listening. She wasn’t the original owner. How could she care about this kind of thing. Moreover, as far as she knew, Wei Jianwei and Zhang Yurong had nothing to do. The two had only met for the first time, and they were disturbed. Otherwise, based on their two conditions, and their respective personalities, they really match well.
Seeing that Wei Jianhua was still upset, she simply stood up and said, “I’ll go to the river to wash my hands. You eat slowly.”
As soon as she walked away, Wei Jianhua immediately grabbed the meat from his bowl to his second brother.
“Brother, eat more, eat more.”
Wei Jianwei didn’t say a word, he still took care of his own food.
He didn’t say, Wei Jianhua had no bottom in his heart, so he had to continue to sandwich the meat, one, two, three… Seeing the fragrant meat leaving him, he almost wanted to cry without tears, and his heartache was so painful that he couldn’t help it, pitifully. : “Second brother, you have something to say.”
Wei Jianwei finally condescended to glance at him, and left a sentence, “Speak less and eat more.”
“Hey.” Wei Jianhua sniffed and nodded, thinking of the meat given away, his heart trembled and hurt.
When they finished eating, He Xiaoyun sat down by the river, packed up the dishes and brought them home. Wei Jianhua looked at her walking away, then looked at his brother, and wanted to ask if his sister-in-law was angry, but didn’t he dare to ask.
After returning home to prepare to wash the dishes, He Xiaoyun found that there was no water in the water tank.
Feng Qiuyue said: “I’ll go to the field and ask your eldest brother to come back to carry water.”
“No need for my sister-in-law, I’ll go pick it.”
“Our bucket is big, you can’t pick it up. Your eldest brother is really, knowing that there are only two of us in the house, so you don’t pick up the water first before going out in the morning.”
“The bucket is too big, I just pick eight points full.” He Xiaoyun said with a smile.
The Qingshuihe brigade has always had no shortage of water. In addition to the river at the foot of the mountain, there are three wells on the team. The people on the team usually wash clothes and go to the river, while washing vegetables and cooking use groundwater from the well.
The water at home was picked by Wei Jianwei a few days ago. He probably forgot about planting rice seedlings in the past two days.
He Xiaoyun picked up the pole and two buckets and walked to the well closest to the house. Wei Yuanhang followed her like a little tail.
The well is not far from the river, and the people planting seedlings by the river have just finished eating and are sitting and resting.
The child’s eyes were good, and he suddenly saw his family and shouted, “Dad—Uncle—”
Wei Jianhua saw his little nephew and second sister-in-law holding a bucket, so he wanted to stand up, “Is there no water at home? Let me help second sister-in-law.”
But there are people around him one step faster.
Wei Jianwei took the hat from the branch, snapped it on his head, and strode over.
The bucket at home is made of iron, and the bucket is very deep. A bucket of water is thirty or forty catties. He Xiaoyun shook the bucket twice in the well. After filling the water, she lifted it up, but found it was a bit difficult. She was preparing. Pour out some of the water in it, and suddenly a hand stretched out next to him, holding the bucket handle and lifting it up, a bucket full of water fell on the edge of the well.
“Hey?”
She turned her head and took a look, only to find that it was Wei Jianwei, the two were a little close, and he could see his profile under the hat, cold and silent. He Xiaoyun wanted to speak, but she didn’t know what to say.
“Dad is amazing!” Wei Yuanhang leaped beside the two and clapped his father vigorously.
At this point, Wei Jianwei had already filled the other bucket, picked up the pole, put on the hook rope, hooked the two buckets, and easily picked it up and walked forward.
He Xiaoyun had to lead Wei Yuanhang to keep up.
Passing by the field, a few people were resting there and saw their family of three walking by before and after. One of them joked: “I said Jianwei was going in a hurry. It turned out to be carrying water home, so I know I love my daughter-in-law, Jianwei. ?”
He Xiaoyun walked behind and couldn’t see what Wei Jianwei’s expression was. He turned his head a little over there, nodded at the person who was talking, and walked away quickly.
She also glanced over there, Zhang Yurong, whom Wei Jianhua had mentioned before, was also looking at them. She seemed to notice He Xiaoyun’s gaze, she turned her gaze to look at her, then turned away to continue talking with the person next to her.
The water well was about three to four hundred meters away from home. There were paddy fields on both sides of the road. There was no shelter. He Xiaoyun was blocking the sunlight with her hands, her eyes could not help falling on the back in front of her.
Wei family members are generally born taller. Wei Jianwei seems to be a little stronger. His clothes are soaked in sweat and are tightly attached to his back. The broad and thick back muscles rise and fall with his steps.
He turned his back to her this time, he couldn’t find her peeking, right? He Xiaoyun thought so, and deliberately glanced again and again, and said to her heart, you have the ability to have eyes on your back!
