Qin Jingru felt that she must be dreaming.

No, even in my dreams I have never dreamed of such a beautiful and noble place.

She stopped Huaihua and Xiaodang who were about to run in. She looked at the jade-white floor tiles and felt that she had to kneel down to enter this house.

Her heart was beating fast, but she didn't dare to look anymore.

She turned off the light, closed the door, dragged Xiaodang and Sophora japonica and walked to the outhouse.

"Let's go and eat! I'll make dry food for you."

"Oh, auntie, don't eat dry food, there are delicious ones!" Xiaodang broke away from Qin Jingru's hand, ran to the chest of drawers, opened the top drawer, and took out a pack of snacks from inside.

"Daoxiang Village!" Huaihua's eyes immediately lit up when she saw the packaging box, and she hurriedly broke away from Qin Jingru and ran over.

"Sister, I want to eat! I want to eat!"

"Don't worry, wait until I open it!" Xiaodang Meizi put the snack on the chair and was about to open it.

"Hey, hey, hey! What are you doing, Xiaodang!" Qin Jingru was startled, hurriedly stepped forward, grabbed the snack box, and shouted sternly: "Who told you to mess with other people's things? What did you say when you came here?

Can things be dismantled at will?"

Xiaodang hurriedly explained: "Uncle Yuanchao asked me to dismantle it. He whispered to me that there were some snacks in the top drawer of the chest and asked me to take them out to eat. He also said that there were eggs under the eucalyptus board and asked Auntie to help.

Let’s eat poached eggs.”

"I want to eat poached eggs!" Little Sophora Flower immediately exclaimed, drooling again.

"Real or false?" Qin Jingru was doubtful.

She did see Su Yi whispering to Xiao Dang, but she didn't hear anything.

"Really, really!" Xiao Dang stamped his feet anxiously, "I lied to you, I'm a dog!"

"I'm a dog too!" Sophora japonica said hurriedly, "Woof woof woof!"

She thought she could eat delicious food as a puppy.

"Oh, I said liars are dogs, but we didn't lie to people!" Xiaodang corrected his sister.

"We are not lying, auntie, we are not dogs yet." Huaihua listened to the advice and immediately changed her tune and said seriously.

"I'm telling you, Xiaodang, people kindly gave up their homes for us to stay. We must not steal other people's things or steal other people's things, otherwise we will be ungrateful!" Qin Jingru taught her two children, "No matter how good their things are,

Without other people’s consent, we absolutely can’t take or eat them. Just look at it, your eldest brother has been arrested and put in jail, right? If we also steal other people’s things, the police will also arrest the three of us and go to jail!”

"Auntie, Uncle Yuan Chao really said it, I really didn't lie to you!" Xiao Dang almost cried.

Qin Jingru put the snacks back into the chest of drawers, looked at them reluctantly, swallowed secretly, then closed the drawer, turned around and took out the dry food from the bag, and said: "I can't even say it, if I really want to

Come on, you have to tell me, an adult, what's going on with you kids? If you hear me wrong, and people come to me but not to you, then where can I go to make amends to them? We'll do it at noon

Eat solid food and forget about anything else."

"No, I want some snacks!"

"I want to eat Daoxiangcun!"

Both little girls started to make a fuss.

Qin Jingru made a serious face: "I won't do it if I say no! I'm going against you! Why are you acting like your mother at such a young age? I'm not taking advantage of you! You haven't even dismantled the things you bought with money, so why do you eat them? He

He’s not your biological father! Just eat solid food! I tell you, don’t cry, I’ll beat anyone who cries with the sole of my shoe!”

The two younger ones were really afraid of Qin Jingru. They were holding back tears and endured their grievances, and suddenly they didn't dare to say anything.

Qin Jingru went to the eucalyptus board to get a bowl, broke open the dried steamed buns and soaked it in the bowl. She also went to put a thermos bottle on it, and found that there was still boiling water in it, and she immediately became happy: "Hey, we can still have something hot to eat!"

Soon, three bowls of steamed buns soaked in boiling water were freshly baked.

Although the two little girls didn't want to eat this and were still thinking about the box of snacks, they came out of the countryside early in the morning without even drinking a sip of water. They were both riding in the car and walking. They were really hungry, so they picked up the bowls and started eating.

stand up.

After the three of them had eaten, Qin Jingru quickly cleaned up the dishes. She glanced at the clean sink, hesitated, and still didn't dare to use it.

"I see there is a faucet in the yard, right?" She turned to ask Xiaodang.

"Yes, auntie, our family always uses water from the yard." Xiaodang replied.

"Come on, you all come out with me, I'm going to wash the dishes." Qin Jingru said.

"Auntie, we don't know how to wash dishes." Huaihua said hurriedly.

"You are not allowed to wash, but you have to come with me so that you don't steal other people's snacks when I go out." Qin Jingru said.

Xiaodang's face turned red and he defended: "I won't steal! Uncle Yuanchao really told me to eat it!"

"I told you, wait until he comes back and ask him in front of me!" Qin Jingru couldn't help but said, holding the bowl in one hand and pushing the two girls out of the door with the other.

The rural girl worked quickly. She washed the dishes and took the two little girls back to the house.

The three of them stared at each other in the house for a while. Qin Jingru played a game played by rural children and played with the two of them with great interest.

In the afternoon, Huaihua was so sleepy that she nodded, and Qin Jingru carried her into the back room to sleep.

Xiao Dang rolled around on Su Yi's bed for a while and fell asleep.

After watching the two children fall asleep, Qin Jingru quietly got up. She walked around every corner of the inner and outer rooms and touched every piece of furniture.

She looked at everything in the house with almost obsession and greed, imagining the scene where she would do housework, rest, work, and wait for her husband to get off work.

This is her dream city life.

When you eat commercial food, you no longer have to earn work points or live a hard life.

The reason why the family entrusted her to send Xiaodang and Sophora japonica back to the city this time was because the rural rations were limited. If there were two more mouths, the family would have to tighten their belts and save everyone's food share for the children. Now is the time

During the spring plowing season, adults, regardless of gender, have to work in the fields. If they share the food with their children, how will they have the strength to survive the whole day?

The second reason is that the elderly people in rural areas think more about whether the two little girls will be "smashed" in their hands when Qin Huairu is taken away by the police. This is not possible. With two more mouths to eat for nothing, everyone will

I couldn't bear it. So I had to send the two little girls back to the city. If no one really took care of them, they would be given to the government and let the government take care of them. In short, they couldn't be taken back again.

The reason why she was sent out, Qin Jingru, was because she was young and a girl. She earned the least centimeters from working, but she did not eat less. It was not cost-effective to keep her in the countryside, so she was sent here.

people.

On the other hand, he also fantasized about whether Qin Huairu's family's troubles could be solved and he could find her a husband's family in the city and let her stay in the city.

In this era, girls raised in rural areas are indeed a burden with low or even no return for a family. This is a very real problem.

When girls get married, they are not often given sky-high betrothal gifts like in later generations. These days, they are not called betrothal gifts, but betrothal gifts, which are usually a few yuan or more than ten yuan. In Qinjia Village, the betrothal gift is usually four yuan plus two.

Kilograms of sugar.

The value of such a betrothal gift is obviously not comparable to the cost of raising a daughter for more than ten years, so marrying off a daughter in rural areas is often one of the ways to reduce the family burden.

As for whether a girl will repay her mother's family after she gets married, it is of course one of the important considerations for her mother's family when marrying a girl.

The Qin family has always had the "dream of moving into the city," or in other words, most rural people now have the dream of moving into the city. When Qin Huairu married into the city, the Qin family was full of longing, hoping that Qin Huairu would be able to turn around after he established a foothold.

Help your family members and bring them all to the city to eat commercial food and enjoy happiness.

But they didn't expect that after Qin Huairu entered the city, not only did she not bring any benefits to the family, but she would often ask her family to provide her with mountain goods for her mother-in-law and husband to try. The Qin family thought that they could not bear to let the children go to trap the wolf, so they endured the sacrifice, but

Unexpectedly, Qin Huairu died soon and the man became a widow. She had to raise her mother-in-law and raise three children by herself, and her life was very difficult.

After being "harvested" by Qin Huairu several times, the relationship between the Qin family and Qin Huairu began to become very tense. Later, when nothing could be harvested, Qin Huairu rarely returned to her parents' home.

I went back for the first time in two years.

The dream of entering the city was shattered for Qin Huairu, but he did not give up on Qin Jingru. One of the two most charming daughters of the old Qin family was dead, but there was still another one waiting to be released, so they put their hope of changing their destiny in

On Qin Jingru’s body.

It can be said seriously that Qin Jingru's visit to the city also carries the hopes of the whole family.

For Qin Jingru herself, her first priority is not to take care of her two nieces, but to find a suitable husband for herself.

She thought she had found it.

At around five o'clock in the afternoon, Qin Jingru, who was lying on the table with her chin in her hands and fantasizing, was awakened by the sound of the door opening. She jumped up like a frightened rabbit. She thought that the person who came in would be the person she had fantasized about all afternoon, but she didn't.

I thought it was a woman.

A tall, fair-skinned woman.

Qin Jingru's heart began to sink.

A woman who came in casually, what is her relationship with Su Yuanchao?

Yu Li looked at Qin Jingru in surprise and asked, "Who are you? Why are you here?"

The tone of a hostess.

Disappointment, grievance, depression, jealousy, anger...

It's hard to describe Qin Jingru's current mood. She stood up in a panic and answered almost instinctively: "I, I am Xiaodang and Huaihua's aunt. I, I was allowed to be here by the uncle. The two children are sleeping in it."

Her words were incoherent and she didn't even know what she was going to say.

Yu Li looked at Qin Jingru, smiled and said, "Huairu's sister? Is it the kiss or the cousin?"
To be continued...
