Long years (47)

"My letter?" Qingning was a little excited. It was the first time in her life. "Who wrote it?" She took it over and glanced at the envelope. "Oh! It's my sister."

Can I still guess that it is Qingping?

Otherwise, who can ask Lin Yulong to help me mail the letter.

She looked surprised and said, "Really? What do you want from me?"

Qing Ning paused when she was about to open the letter, then turned around and scurried back to her room, "Mom, this is a private letter. You see, I didn't even pry when you received the letter..."

"Who wrote a letter to your mother?" Fourth Master came out of the study with a cup in his hand. He was afraid that he might have come out to refill the cup, so he picked up a handle as soon as he came out and asked as he answered.

Qingning poked her head out of the room, blinked at her mother, and then made an innocent look to her father, "Didn't my mother tell you?" She opened her mouth in an exaggerated way,

Then she stretched out her hand and covered it again, as if breaking her promise, and said to her mother: "What should I do? I told my mother's secret, what should I do? I didn't mean to!" Then she looked at her father again, "My mother must be sure.

I didn't hide it from you on purpose...really..." After saying that, he retracted his head, and the two of them only heard the daughter's more exaggerated voice: "Don't take it to heart...I really don't want to stir up trouble...

…It’s really…”

Drama queen!

The two of them were left looking at each other.

Fourth Master said, "What's going on?" He asked as he walked to the kitchen.

As a result, Lin Yutong opened his mouth and said, "What..."

The fourth master paused in his steps. He was really just asking casually, but something seemed wrong. There was something wrong!

Ouch! There are really people who want to take advantage of the wall.

The fourth master just said "ha", and the aftertaste was quite worth remembering.

Lin Yutong rolled her eyes and stared at him secretly, "What the hell!"

Qing Ning covered her mouth and snickered as she entered, singing cheers and cheers, feeling quite complacent. Look! No one has remembered to ask about his personal letters.

Huh! It's not that easy to pry into my private affairs.

He sat down at his desk seriously, turned on the desk lamp, and opened the letter.

Then my brows furrowed. The pinyin thing was really weird to read. When I finished reading, my brows were so furrowed that they could pick up mosquitoes.

She took out paper and pen to reply. She had no problem writing letters with the characters she recognized now. But she had to ask Qingping to read without difficulty. She also had to write one line with a blank line and then mark the pinyin after she finished writing.

But how should I write this letter?

Biting the end of the pencil, I secretly ate two candies, and then I wrote the word 'sister' at the beginning.

If you don’t know how to write, just speak and write.

So she wrote: Sister, why are you so hard to think about?

After writing, after another pause, what she actually wanted to say was: Sister, why are you so stupid?

Some things can be seen secretly, but cannot be listened to openly.

Every time when adults come to the house to talk about something, do they just say hello and hide away without seeing me? In the words of adults, tell adults to leave the children alone, because they can't do it anyway.

It was wrong for her to stay and listen, and it was wrong for her to interrupt the adults. It was also wrong for her to go to Yan'er just after what happened.

But then again, the countryside is different from the city, and the second uncle's house is different from my own house. I have a room that I can go to. But the second uncle's house has many rooms, but the whole family only lives in one room.

The living room, bedroom and dining room can be collectively referred to as the multi-functional hall. There is really no place to hide if she wants to. Unless she stands in the corridor and blows the wind.

If it were me, I would definitely doze off if I had nowhere to go.

Even if you hear it, you pretend not to hear it.

This is what my father said, don’t look at or hear anything inappropriate. If you read or hear anything, you will get into trouble.

She wrote these words to Qing Ping tactfully. Then she said, don't think you are better than adults. Trust your second uncle and aunt, of course they will not ask Yan'er to be a nanny.

Just pretending that you don't understand anything is better than helping your friends on that occasion.

So, she said again: Just having good intentions is not enough, you also have to be kind and be able to do good things. Of course, doing good things doesn’t necessarily mean people will appreciate it. Just like this time, people didn’t appreciate it, but instead held grudges.

She wrote this truth to Qingping, thinking that it would be too annoying to write so many words about Qingping. So she changed her tone and said again: No one is the roundworm in someone's belly, and who knows her?

What would you think in your heart? If you had hidden away at that time, she might have resented you and felt that you were too indifferent to her. If you had not spoken to help, she would have resented you for just standing aside and watching the joke.

There is something wrong with what you did, but the unsatisfactory things in her family are not caused by you. It is not your fault that she has developed such a temper. Sometimes people tend to get angry when their lives are not going well.

She also gave an example, saying that her parents didn't give Qingyuan candy, and Qingyuan was so angry that she didn't dare to show her teeth to her parents, but she got angry at the old lady.

That's what Yan'er means, venting her unhappiness to the person who cares about her but she can handle it.

Finally, she made a suggestion, saying that you don't have to please her. You don't owe her anything, so why should you be responsible for coaxing her? Just don't talk to her and see what she will do.

After writing the letter, Qingning still frowned and sighed and said to her mother: "My sister was raised badly by my aunt..."

Lin Yutong almost sprayed it, "Why did it get bad?"

"My aunt is just too thoughtful in what she does. She is afraid that others will say something bad about her." Qingning pouted, "My sister followed my aunt's example. Whenever something happens, she first thinks about whether she did something wrong. Tell me, do it.

Why, you just want to please others. What can you do if you ask them to say something nice?"

Ignore me? I don’t like to talk to you yet!

Did I stop you from studying, or did I make you a nanny? Did I cause you to be given away by your biological parents? Or did I cause your adoptive parents to treat you badly?

What does it have to do with me after all?

In my home, I will be angered just because I witnessed your misfortune.

Why am I still thinking about being nice to you and how to apologize? What’s wrong!

Let's play around.

Lin Yutong watched her daughter complain a lot, then returned to the room with a glass of water.

She didn't quite understand what happened.

However, Jin Laoer's job of finding a nanny at home did not go very smoothly.

They can talk about anything. Didn’t the second child’s family find an old lady to help look after Qing An? And the fourth child’s family is now hiring a nanny. Many people said that these two daughters-in-law are embarrassing their mother-in-law.

.

How kind your two daughters-in-law are to you, right? Then you went to look after the children for the old man. So here you have to spend money to hire someone. Over at the fourth son’s house, they don’t hire nannies for the children, but they hire nannies for the little old man.

It’s too much to hire a nanny. Look, for an old lady like that, the two of them hire a nanny. Why don’t they pay attention to you, my own mother?

This must be heart-wrenching.

How does Aunt Jin feel?

It's no wonder. All the sons feel that they are partial, but how can this be justified?

How are you living with the boss? How good! It seems like life has gone back ten years, lacking salt, vinegar and soy sauce. The boss’s wife seems to have not seen it. What are you waiting for? You are not waiting for yourself.

Are you subsidizing it?

I can subsidize Qinghui, but how can I subsidize my boss?

With the little money I have freed up, I still have to buy something every month to see my third child.

That day, the old man's second child was put to sleep, and it was time to make lunch. There was still some noodles, and the grain harvested from the fields every year would not make us hungry, but we were just short of money.

The salt shaker was gone, only a little bit stuck to the salt shaker was left.

Pour vinegar into the salt shaker, rinse it, then pour it into a bowl. Light it with soy sauce, chop up two coriander stalks growing in the yard and sprinkle them in.

Roll out the noodles, remove them from the pot, and bring them with the noodle soup.

When the couple came back, their faces drooped, and they dipped the noodles into the water again. What does it taste like to eat noodles dipped in vinegar water? Don't look at the bright white and green vegetables in the basin, but the floating green vegetables are very interesting.

I know that I found old gray cabbage in the weeds at the door, pinched the young leaves and boiled them in a pot of water.

In the morning, it’s steamed buns and porridge with cold vegetables, and at noon, it’s noodles dipped in vinegar sauce, with no trace of oil left. Who wants to eat that?

Aunt Jin made a face, "Don't wait for Qingfeng, I must have followed Qingping back to Lao Er's place to eat..." The child is very smart. He knows where the food is good, so he goes there. At least the child doesn't suffer.

"Don't take it too hard, there won't even be any vinegar for the next meal."

Salt is the last bit, vinegar is the last bit. After eating, it’s up to you what to do.

The couple ate in silence. They didn’t stay at home even after dinner. They couldn’t stay at home. There was only one room. For the past six months, the couple had been living on the same bed with my mother. I wanted to say something.

If you want to speak privately, you have to go outside.

This year, watermelons were planted in the field, and a shed was built in the melon field. The couple took a break or did something else in the melon shed. After dinner, they came out under the guise of looking at the watermelons.

The melon shed is built with branches and a few wooden sticks. From the outside, it is only one person tall, but you have to bend your waist to get in. Inside, bricks are used to support the bed board, which is just as high as an adult's calf. In addition to a bed, there are also

There was only an aisle left for people to walk sideways. There were a few irregular protruding branches, with cloth bags and kettles hung on them. In the cloth bags were steamed buns, prepared for when you were hungry.

Li Xian'er lay down on the bed, stretched out her hands to block the light that came through the gaps in the leaves, and cursed, "A pound of coarse salt is only 18 cents, and a pound of vinegar is only 7 cents. She can't even part with this little money."

Give us subsidies and keep the money to buy yourself a coffin in the future."

Jin Mancheng thought this was unpleasant, so he said to her: "You too! It's only more than 20 cents, so you can quickly buy salt and vinegar. You can eat whatever you want every day. You are so hungry in the middle of the night, you

My milk supply can’t keep up. What are you doing to relieve your anger?”

"You think I don't want to?" Li Xian'er jumped up all of a sudden, "What am I here for? That shitty director of the farm is just a blood sucker. He can't make ends meet no matter how much money he has. It's easy to save some money and give him some tobacco and alcohol.

Buying anything, he just accepts everything and doesn't do anything." After that, he scolded Jin Mancheng again, "It's not you! You are a coward. I don't expect you to have the ability of the fourth child, nor do I expect you to have it.

Even if you have the ability of the second child, even if you have the ability of the third child? No matter it’s cheating or something like that, at least you won’t suffer poverty, right?”
