Second Marriage in the 1970s - Chapter 61

Departing in the morning, it took a whole day on the road to reach the provincial capital.

In addition, there is another unexpected thing, that is, Zhang Qiaoer’s motion sickness is very serious, and the sky is dim all the way, Jiahui looks a little unbearable, and feels a little guilty to let an old man follow along.

On the road, Meixiang took care of Zhang Qiao’er, Jiahui took care of him, and Donglin and Dong came to see Yingbao’s black eggs and the other for things. The family was a little dizzy. When the car reached the destination, everyone followed loose. Take a sigh of relief.

“Oh my god, I’m finally there.”

When Zhang Qiaoer got out of the car, her legs couldn’t stand still, and she shivered softly. Meixiang supported her.

Jiahui hugged and let go and asked with concern, “Mom, how are you? I’m sorry, let you follow us and suffer.”

According to conscience, it is not easy for a mother-in-law to follow into the city. Not to mention this era, there are still many old people in the 21st century who are unwilling to leave their homeland to live in the city.

Of course, Jiahui also knew that her mother-in-law was willing to suffer this hardship not for herself but for the children, and because she knew that when Jiahui was persuading her, she focused on the black egg going to school.

The relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law is naturally difficult, but it can be said to be easy and easy. It is to give the mother-in-law enough respect and put her husband and children first. Those who are daughter-in-law must understand that a daughter-in-law is a daughter-in-law, and an outsider in a mother-in-law’s house. While being self-reliant, don’t think of yourself too much, so that the relationship will get along better.

Zhang Qiao’er was originally not very good in her body and heart, but her daughter-in-law said that she was embarrassed to say something, and waved her hand, “It’s nothing, just let me take it easy.”

Jiahui smiled and turned to ask Zhao Donglin, “Is the place still far away? It’s really inconvenient for us to bring so many things. Why don’t we find a place to eat slowly?”

Zhao Donglin raised his wrist to check the time, shook his head and said, “It’s late, and we can’t get on the bus late. Let’s work harder. Go and settle down first.”

Since Zhao Donglin said so, Jiahui naturally had no objection. After all, Zhao Donglin had come to know the road, and everyone else had come to the provincial capital for the first time and had no experience.

On the other hand, she just took the children, not as good as the two brothers carrying luggage and carrying baskets all the way.

Several people walked to the bus station with their children’s luggage and waited for about 20 minutes before they waited for the bus passing by Wudong University. When they got on the bus, they were “looked differently” by other passengers on the bus because they were carrying baskets. Mei Xiang is still a little girl, a little embarrassed to receive such “attention” for the first time, her face blushed when she grabbed the corners of her clothes, while Jiahui was more at ease, turning a blind eye to those strange eyes.

If it was before the crossing, she might think it was a shame. After experiencing the crossing, experiencing this era, and experiencing the country life day after day, Jiahui’s mentality naturally changed.

Poverty does not mean inferiority. Although they seem to be full of rural flavors and incompatible with this city, they are using their own efforts to change their destiny. I believe that in the near future, they will be able to get rid of poverty, and they will never be easy to talk because of their clothes. Well, ridiculed.

There were a few seats on the bus. Jiahui asked Zhang Qiao’er to sit down first, and she and Meixiang also took the children with them.

As soon as Zhang Qiaoer got into the car, she started to feel dizzy and nauseous again. Zhao Donglin opened the window for her and asked her to breathe air out of the window.

A middle-aged woman sitting next to Zhang Qiao’er rolled her eyes in disgust, and said something, because it was so far away, Jiahui didn’t hear it either, but only noticed that Zhao Donglin glanced at the woman and turned her head. .

The car drove for about a quarter of an hour, and they got off at the “Wudong University” station.

Wudong University is the highest institution in Wudong Province and has a history of hundreds of years. Even in the 21st century, although Wudong University is not as good as Peking University and Tsinghua University, it is also one of the top ten universities in China.

The towering and quaint school gate is more than ten meters wide. Two huge stone lions are shocked. They look through the iron gate into the school. They can’t see the end at a glance. Zhang Qiao’er gave birth to awe, Meixiang and Zhao Donglin. The same, one regrets that he failed to pass the entrance exam to Wu Dong, and the other is envious that his eldest brother and sister-in-law can study in such a culturally full school.

There are four brothers and sisters in the family. The elder brother and the younger sister are promising. The eldest sister is too old to mention. As a younger brother, he doesn’t even have the courage to try. So now, he can only look at it with envy, but he can’t get it. The honor.

Thinking of Stone’s words before coming, Zhao Donghe felt guilty for the first time.

Stone said, Dad, why do all my brothers and sisters go to the city, but I stay in the country alone?

A child without a mother originally owed him a lot. Now because of his lack of motivation, his child does not even have the opportunity to go to the city to study. He feels that he is not worthy to be a father.

“This school is so big, you can’t see the head at a glance.”

My son and daughter-in-law will study in this school in the future, and I feel honored when I think about it!

Zhao Donglin felt his mother’s comfort and pointed to the distance and said, “Mom, the house we rented is right behind the school.”

*****

Shen Nianru looked at Ying Bao in Zhao Donglin’s arms, cute and cute, and then at Jiahui’s arms, she was white and chubby like a good fortune boy, her eyes were round and round like talking, and her heart suddenly softened. Into a ball.

When she was young, she was busy with her career and neglected to take care of her daughter. When her daughter grew up slim, that happened again. In this life, she owed her daughter to her. When she saw such a small baby, she thought of her little daughter. When I was older, my eyes started to sore.

Seeing them carrying burdens and bringing pots and pans over, Shen Nianru didn’t show any surprised eyes. During the few years he was put down, he lived in a cowshed, ate gluttonous rice, and ate everything. In those days The most terrifying thing is the bad elements who took the opportunity to disrupt the split and vent their anger, and the simple villagers sometimes saw them as pitiful, but from time to time under pressure to help them, so seeing the Zhao family, Shen Nianru felt cordial in her heart.

“Hello, I am Zhao Donglin’s wife, and my name is Dong Jiahui.”

“Oh, well, this daughter-in-law is so handsome.”

But isn’t it? Even though he was married and gave birth to a baby, he still looked very young, just in his early twenties, with a twisted braid, a smile on his face, a faintly lying cicada, and a small pear vortex at the corner of his mouth.

“This is my mother-in-law, Zhang Qiao’er. She has been fainted for a day in the car today and is not very comfortable.”

“I have cleaned up the house. The three front rooms are for you, and the second ones belong to our old couple. I also let someone open a small door on the side, which usually won’t disturb you.”

“Auntie, what you said is too foreign, it should have been caused by us. After Donglin went back and talked to me, I said that we met a noble person. How could we meet with such a good house? It’s on.”

Shen Zhiru always has a smile on her face. The more she looks at Jiahui, the more she likes it. This girl is handsome and has a sweet mouth. She never forgets to bring her children to school. It shows that she is a good mother who is responsible for her children and has a good relationship with her mother-in-law. , Which shows that it is not bad to be a human being.

Sometimes people’s eyesight is so simple. Whatever looks pleasing to the eye is good, and what is not pleasing to the eye is bad.

After the greeting, Shen Nianru left and returned to the backyard, leaving time for them to organize.

“By the way, have you eaten yet? I have rice, noodles, and a la carte if I didn’t eat it. I will show you some food first.”

A few people really didn’t have time to eat, and I was very grateful to hear that Shen Nianru was so thoughtful.

“Thank you so much, we really didn’t care about eating.”

Shen Nianru took a small bag of flour, potatoes, carrots, and cabbage from the backyard. Jiahui made noodle soup and gave them a pot.

“This noodle soup has the flavor I ate when I was a kid. I didn’t expect your wife to have such a good craftsmanship.”

“She is really good at cooking, she is meticulous.”

“Well, it can be seen that the children are all cleaned up.”

She has been in the countryside. The children in the countryside are like mud monkeys, and the clothes they wear are not very elegant, but the three children of the Zhao family are different. They are clean and tidy, and they are very sensible.

“These three are yours?”

“How old is Jiahui, I think your size is no longer small.”

She seems to be six or seven years old, but Jiahui doesn’t look like she is in her early twenties. It’s hard for her to marry and have children in her teens.

“Black Egg and Ying Bao were born to my ex-wife.”

“what?”

Shen Nianru really never thought that there was a hidden feeling in it.

“Are you divorced? You are not a soldier.”

Military marriages are protected by law, so it’s hard for them to look away. This Zhao Donglin is Chen Shimei who has changed his mind.

“My ex-wife is an educated youth who went to the countryside. I didn’t know what happened three years ago, because I was going to divorce me when I returned to the city. I was still in the army at that time, maybe because of self-esteem, I agreed to see her insisting. After the divorce, I was afraid that there would be no children After taking care, I left the army and returned to my hometown. Our teacher felt that it was a shame that I was discharged like this, so I got a job change.”

Zhao Donglin talked about the divorce lightly, thinking that Ru Zhongdaomin had life experience, knowing that things are not that simple.

“So Jiahui is the daughter-in-law you will look for later?”

“Yes, I didn’t want to get married to delay others, but I don’t think I can find it. I picked Jiahui by myself. She is also a poor one. When I returned to my hometown, she was just driven back to her mother’s home by her ex-husband. ”

The old couple looked at each other, unexpectedly Jiahui was also divorced.

“Why, I think Jiahui is a good girl.”

“After being married for three years without having children, they all say that she can’t have children. Unfilial piety is a big deal.”

Shen Nianru shook his head and sighed. There are these foolish people.

“Then the combination of the two of you is just right.”

They are all excellent young people who have experienced the hardships of life, and have good temperaments, but they are more suitable than the previous marriage.

This also reflects the saying that if the couple can live well, they still have to be like-minded.

“I think this is okay, and the days when they came to us were a lot of fun.”

“as long as you are happy.”

Seeing that his wife was in a good mood, Zhong Daomin also felt that the thought he had suddenly flashed was good.

“This noodle soup is really delicious, but you shouldn’t eat too much. If you eat too much, you should accumulate food at night.”

For a long time, the two were often hungry. The old man was afraid that she would not have enough to eat. He always hid his share for her to eat. He was hungry and broke his stomach. Now he is hungry and full. He is full of six points for every meal.

Rough tea and light rice are also a blessing. Since the woman is gone, give the rest of the day to the school and the society to cultivate more useful talents.

After crossing, Jiahui finally used the bathroom. It was the kind of toilet with a simple washstand, a squat for flushing, and a cubicle with a shower curtain for a shower. She took a shower in a hurry. It seems to have washed away all the discomforts and inner haze after crossing, full of hope for the future life.

Yingbao ran around the house happily. This place is too fresh for her. There is no soil. There are a few pots of roses in the corner and no creek. But father said, there is a small park nearby. You can take her during the day tomorrow. Go play.

“The city is good, but I’m not used to it.”

I just need to cook in my hometown and use some gas stove to cook in the city, and said that the gas stove will explode if it is not used well, so she dare not even cook it.

There is also the toilet, so squatting is too tiring, the water is rushing, I heard that the tap water still costs money, and it is like eating and drinking Lazarus.

Of course, Zhang Qiaoer didn’t tell her daughter-in-law, but she said it to her daughter-in-law.

“Mom, you should live steadfastly first. People think that they can’t enjoy the happiness in the city. The sister-in-law is also for the sake of their nephews and nieces. Well, in the future, the black egg will be admitted to a good university, and if he makes money, he will buy food and drink for you, the grandma, and envy others to death.”

Zhang Qiao’er laughed, and sighed again. If it weren’t for her grandson, how could she have suffered this crime? She had also complained about her daughter-in-law at the beginning.

But the daughter-in-law said that left-behind children are not good, which will affect the children’s mental health.

She doesn’t understand what mental health is. Anyway, let her son and daughter-in-law make it happen. She is not afraid of suffering. As long as the children are useful and can live a good life, these sufferings are not in vain.

Jiahui didn’t go to bed until midnight. There were three rooms in the front yard. She and Zhao Donglin took them and put them in one room. Zhao Donghe was also there today. Go back to the river, that is Zhang Qiaoer’s black eggs, and Meixiang Yingbao.

The next day, Zhang Qiao’er got up just after dawn. She wanted to make breakfast, but she didn’t know how to make a gas stove, so she ordered the briquettes stove.

She didn’t have rice at home, and she didn’t know where to buy it, so she mixed the rest of the noodles to make pancakes.

Zhao Donglin was the second to get up, seeing his mother had already built the stove.

“I don’t know how to use the stove for every meter in the house, so I will do it.”

There is a market in the east. I’ll go see if there is breakfast.

Zhang Qiao’er hurriedly stopped, “What do you do with that money? Just eat it. You have to eat something? Hey, everything in this city costs money. I really can’t make it through a day.”

If I knew it, I would carry a bag of rice from home.

“Mom, it’s okay. When we start school, we can get back from school. School meals are generally cheap.”

Zhang Qiao’er just complained, and didn’t really mean to blame anyone, but there was something in her heart that prevented her from saying that she was also uncomfortable.

Jiahui slept a little longer today, and her mother-in-law had already cooked the meal after she got up.

“Let’s eat, there is no rice at home and there is no porridge, drink some boiled water.”

After breakfast, Zhao Donglin and Jiahui went out with the children, so they had to buy the things they needed at home.
