Chapter 302 Invite the Father and Daughter to Live in the Siheyuan
Chapter 302 Inviting the father and daughter to move to the courtyard
After hearing her words, Ling Jiang immediately said: "Brother and sister, if you have anything to say, just say it."
Yun Mo briefly explained Chunhua's love for telling stories, "There are only two months until the Chinese New Year, so why don't you and Chunhua live in the courtyard for the time being? I can also teach Chunhua how to read when I have time.
Wait until spring next year, and then we will discuss how to renovate this old house. When the house is repaired, we can add furniture and other things. Brother, what do you think?"
Ling Jiang hurriedly said: "I definitely have no objection, I'm just afraid it will disturb you and Chuanzi."
"Don't bother me. It just so happens that you have to help Lingchuan with work in the past two months, so it's convenient to live together. It's so cold this year, and it's easy to get sick if you live in such a humid place for a long time."
Under Yun Mo's persuasion, Ling Jiang agreed to temporarily move to a courtyard house.
After packing up their things, they went to the kindergarten to pick up Ling Chunhua, and the four of them took a taxi back to the courtyard.
After arriving home, Yun Mo asked Ling Jiang to ride a bicycle to call the Deng family over for dinner, while she and Ling Chuan took the time to go to the vegetable market to buy vegetables.
Afraid of not having enough food due to the large crowd, Yunmo bought a whole lamb front leg, which weighed ten kilograms including the meat and bones, and then bought five or six pieces of raw beef and other vegetables.
When the weather is cold, the meat itself is cold and hard. There is no need to buy ice cubes for freezing. You can directly cut it into thin slices with a blade.
Lingchuan would definitely be too busy to prepare dishes for so many people. Yun Mo found a knife and prepared to peel the radish first.
As a result, I couldn't help but grit my teeth as soon as I picked up a white radish. The radish in winter is hard and ice-cold, and it feels like a big popsicle in my hand.
She was hesitating whether to find a pair of gloves to put on when Lingchuan took the carrot in her hand and said, "Daughter-in-law, I will take care of the kitchen. You can take Chunhua to the house to learn how to read."
Yun Mo looked at the various meats and vegetables on the ground that were filled with three large bags, "There are so many, can you keep up with it?"
"Brother and Zhou Xiaowei will be back soon and can help."
"Oh well."
Yun Mo stood up to go out, but as soon as she stood up, she was hugged by the other party.
"Daughter-in-law, thank you."
Yun Mo was a little confused. He, a working person, said thank you to her, a non-working person?
But she soon heard the man's words behind him, "Thank you for your plans for brother and Chunhua. Wife, being able to marry you is the blessing I have earned in eight lifetimes."
"Don't blame me for breaking up my eldest brother's marriage on my own initiative."
"I know you are doing it for my brother and me."
With the man's words, it was not in vain for her to spend so much effort secretly.
"Aunt, dad said that he and I will stay here until the Chinese New Year before going back. Is this true?"
Yun Mo pinched the other person's fairer and tenderer face, "Then do you want to live at your aunt's house?"
Ling Chunhua nodded hastily, "I think!"
"You can stay here if you want. It doesn't matter how long you want."
Ling Chunhua's big round eyes were full of joy and excitement, but soon, the excitement on her face was replaced by worry.
"Then if I live here, won't I be able to go to kindergarten?"
The first few times I lived here, I didn't go to kindergarten, so in Ling Chunhua's heart, living here meant not going to kindergarten.
Yun Mo deliberately teased her, "Yes, if you live with your aunt, you won't be able to go to kindergarten, so will you still live there?"
Ling Chunhua's thin pink lips pursed into a line in embarrassment, her face wrinkled into a small bun, and she didn't speak for a long time.
Yunmo was not in a hurry and waited patiently for the other party to make a choice.
After a while, Ling Chunhua suddenly spoke, "Auntie, can I go to kindergarten by myself?"
This answer surprised Yun Mowei, and she was also very pleasantly surprised.
She only gave two choices, a and b, but Ling Chunhua thought of c on her own, just to see the other person's intelligence.
"It's a long way to the kindergarten from here. Do you know the way?"
Ling Chunhua shook her head, "But I can learn. I have now memorized how to get from home to the place where dad sells things."
Yun Mo stroked the other party's furry little head and said, "Chunhua, you are still young now, so we don't worry about going out alone. When you are older and enter the second grade of elementary school, you can go out to school alone."
"knew."
Seeing the other person lowering his head in frustration, Yun Mo couldn't help but smile and said: "Don't worry, your father will send you to kindergarten."
Ling Chunhua's lowered head suddenly lifted up, "Really?"
"Um."
"Wow!" Ling Chunhua jumped and clapped her hands happily, and then hugged Yun Mo's legs and refused to let go. Her round eyes were full of joy and admiration, "Aunt, I like living here, I like aunt.
, I also like my uncle, and I also like Dabai Erbai, Daguai Erguai..."
Seeing the smile on her niece's face that was brighter than a flower, the faint guilt and uneasiness in Yun Mo's heart disappeared a lot.
In planning Li Li's divorce, the only person she felt ashamed of was Ling Chunhua.
She was worried that the divorce between Ling Jiang and Li Li would have a bad impact on Ling Chunhua, which was one of the reasons why she asked Ling Jiang to live with Ling Chunhua.
—
As the sky darkened, Ling Jiang and Zhou Xiaowei also returned, and the courtyard became lively.
Yun Mo couldn't help but stay in the room all the time. After teaching Ling Chunhua what to write today, she opened the door and went out.
There was a half-man-high used gasoline barrel in the yard, and Ling Jiang was cutting the iron cover on the top of the barrel with a knife.
"Brother, where did you get the bucket?"
Ling Jiang replied with a smile: "I picked it up on the way to Uncle Zhi's house. I guess someone lost it accidentally. I just happened to run into it."
Although used gasoline barrels are of no use, they are made of iron sheets and can be sold for about one yuan at a scrapyard.
The lid of the gasoline barrel was quickly cut open. It may have been abandoned for a long time. There was nothing inside, only a thick layer of rust.
Ling Jiang briefly cleaned it up, then lit some dry firewood and threw it into the bucket.
As the flames rise, an open-air oven is completed.
The firelight illuminated the smiling faces, and the cold was dispelled.
There are four members of the Deng family, and there are also four members of Yunmo's side, plus Zhou Xiaowei. There are nine people. The stone table is too small to sit on.
Yun Mo turned around and went out and knocked on Uncle Luo's door next door.
It took a while for the door to open, and it was Uncle Luo who opened it himself.
Yun Mo was a little strange and asked casually: "Uncle Luo, are you the only one at home?"
"Yes, Xiao Gao's grandson is sick and she is taking care of her grandson at home. Miss Momo, are you here to borrow the phone?"
Yun Mo waved her hand quickly, "No, I would like to borrow your big round table. Is it convenient?"
"It's convenient. What's the inconvenience? But you have to move it yourself. The table is too heavy. I can't move it with my old bones."
"Okay, I'll go over and call someone."
Yun Mo turned around and was about to go home and call someone when she suddenly thought of something, "Uncle Luo, have you had dinner?"
"Not yet. Xiao Gao made me dumplings and froze them in the refrigerator. I'll cook them later."
Hearing that Uncle Luo hadn't eaten yet, Yun Mo immediately said: "Uncle Luo, why don't you come to my house for dinner? Let's eat boiled mutton."
Uncle Luo loves mutton the most. Hearing this, he smiled from ear to ear, "That's great."
Including Uncle Luo, there were ten people in total, and a large round table was just full.
The flame in the iron bucket burst out with crackling sparks from time to time, the soup in the copper pot kept gushing and bubbling, and the plates of meat slices were lowered into the pot, and they started to rise and fall on the surface of the pot in an instant.
"It's done, let's eat."
"Eat, eat, eat, it will be gone if it's late!"
Amidst the laughter and laughter, everyone took off their chopsticks together.
