Wutongshu Courtyard.
When she was still a few hundred meters away from the courtyard, Ding Qiunan wanted him to stop. She wanted to walk home by herself.
"If you don't want to become a cripple in the future, then get off the car yourself."
Zhou Jimin knew that the other party was shy and was afraid that the neighbors would gossip.
But compared to these, isn’t the body more important?
Besides, now is a new era, which values ​​free love.
If it really doesn’t work, you can pretend to be a classmate.
When the bicycle arrived at the entrance of the courtyard, Zhou Jimin parked the bicycle and helped Ding Qiunan to walk inside.
"Hey, Qiu Nan is back by car. Is this young man your date?"
At the entrance of the courtyard, an aunt who was drying her quilt smiled enthusiastically.
Before Ding Qiunan spoke, Zhou Jimin smiled and said:
"Hello, aunt, I am her classmate. I accidentally hurt her foot. I have to come and apologize."
The reason why he helps the other party so much is not because of his mother, but because he likes the other party.
He is happy to protect the other party's reputation within the scope of his ability.
Besides, if you lower your profile, you can still win Ding Qiunan's favor. You can achieve multiple things with one stone, so why not?
When Ding Qiunan heard this, he was stunned and at the same time felt sweet in his heart.
Immediately ignoring the shyness, he said hello to the aunt and went in.
Watching the two disappear at the door, the aunt squinted her eyes and smiled, "What a talented man and beautiful woman. She also has a bicycle. Tsk, tsk, it seems Qiu Nan is lucky."
After a while, Zhou Jimin sent Ding Qiunan to her home. Her parents were at home, as well as a younger sister and younger brother.
So there is no need to bother him about applying the medicine.
Ding Qiunan took the initiative to tell her parents what happened, and after applying the medicine, she also took the initiative to give the money to Zhou Jimin.
"Thank you for sending me back, classmate Zhou Jimin." Ding Qiunan said the word "classmate" very strongly, "Thank you for what happened at the door just now."
The latter did not refuse, took the money and said with a smile: "You're welcome."
Her parents were very enthusiastic, especially her mother. While helping Ding Qiunan apply the medicine, she was also busy chatting with Zhou Jimin.
In fact, it’s not just chatting, but asking for news about him.
"Auntie, actually Qiunan and I are not classmates, and today is the first time we meet. Since she is fine now, I will leave now and see Qiunan next time."
Unable to resist, Zhou Jimin had no choice but to implement a roundabout tactic and retreat first out of respect.
If he knew the situation of his family, it would be difficult for him to have any idea of ​​​​Ding Qiunan again.
After all, from the surface, the current Zhou family has a total of five children, and only he, Zhou Jimin, an apprentice, earns a monthly salary of 23 yuan.
Although Lao Zhou had been compensated 500 yuan before, and Zhou’s mother also left her job, the steel rolling mill also paid 300 yuan in compensation.
But if you are sitting on nothing, how can you support it with just this little family background?
Another point is that Zhou Jimin is only fifteen years old, but Ding Qiunan is already eighteen years old.
Regardless of which era, people are all realistic animals, and when facing marriage, they must have realistic considerations.
No one wants to push their child into a pit of fire, right?
Therefore, in order to avoid this, Zhou Jimin had no choice but to leave first.
Watching him leave, the Ding parents looked at each other, and Ding Qiunan blushed and glared at her mother.
Ding Qiunan picked up the pole on the side and used it as a crutch, and took Zhou Jimin to the door of his house.
"Go back and rest quickly. I'll come see you in two days."
"Okay." She nodded shyly, but looked at him until he disappeared at the door of the courtyard.
After leaving Ding's house, Zhou Jimin looked up and saw that it was almost noon.
So, hurry home.
When he rode his bicycle back to the vicinity of the courtyard, still two miles away, he found a deserted place and threw the bicycle back into the warehouse space.
Living in a courtyard house, you have to keep a low profile.
"Brother, you are back."
In the front yard of the courtyard, as soon as Zhou Jimin stepped in, Zhou Shumin, who was playing hide and seek, saw him and immediately exclaimed.
Picking up the little one, Zhou Jimin held her in his arms and said with a smile:
"Are you hungry? Do you want to go home with me?"
"I wasn't hungry just now, but I'm a little hungry now. Brother, what should we eat for lunch?"
"Hahaha, you little greedy cat only knows how to eat, walk, and go home to cook."
"Really? What's something delicious, brother?"
The conversation between the two siblings aroused the envy of other children.
In comparison, no other family in the courtyard loves his sister as much as Zhou Jimin.
The little kid from the Yan family pretended to be brave and ran in front of Zhou Jimin, "Brother Zhou, you are so awesome. Can I go to your house to play with the little goldfish?"
Under the influence of Yan Bugui, Yan Jiedi is more or less capable of scheming.
"Okay, you are welcome to come." Zhou Jimin said with a smile, and the group of little kids in front of him suddenly cheered.
Even Zhou Shumin was so happy that she kissed her brother on the cheek, struggled down, and ran home jumping with her friends.
What a passionate little silly girl.
At home, the second sister and the third brother are doing homework, but the fourth brother is fooling around somewhere.
"Brother, you are back."
When the two siblings saw Zhou Jimin, their eyes lit up and they quickly stood up.
"Are you hungry?" Zhou Jimin touched their heads and said, "Let's eat dumplings for lunch. Let's go and light the fire."
He is 1.73 meters tall. Except for his thin body and tender face, he is no different from an adult.
Besides, there are no adults in the Zhou family anymore, so he is the head.
When the sensible Zhou Jikang heard this, he happily ran to the kitchen and got busy.
On the contrary, it was the second sister, Zhou Shuqing, who looked worried and said:
"Brother, we eat so well every day, what will we do if we have no money in the future?"
"You don't have to worry about this. Studying hard is what you should do."
Although Zhou Jimin was so comforting, she obviously didn't believe it.
Who are you trying to fool?
Looking at her expression, Zhou Jimin sighed.
It is not unreasonable to say that children from poor families should become masters early.
I didn’t have my father’s care and companionship before, and now even my mother has left. If I don’t take charge of the family soon, I will starve to death.
"Go and close the door and call the third child back."
The obedient second sister quickly pulled the third child back and carefully closed the door.
Zhou Jimin looked at the two of them and said:
"Lao Si and Min Min are still young, and I'm worried that they can't keep their mouths shut, so today's family meeting is just the three of us."
"However, you should also remember that the content of the upcoming meeting, no matter when, no matter what the circumstances, as long as I don't speak, you are not allowed to leak out, do you hear me?"
When the two heard this, they quickly raised their hands and swore.
The third child is very excited. According to the eldest brother, he is also a little adult.
