Zou He watched the two children happily building snowmen and passed by in no hurry.
Instead, he sat at the door and started to read.
When Qin Jingru saw Zou He coming back, she brought a bowl of hot tea out of the house and handed it to Zou He, "It's been cold all the way back, right? Drink some hot tea!"
Zou He took it with a smile and said, "It's not cold at all, but I'm actually sweating when I walk."
Qin Jingru smiled sweetly and said, "It seems that you are in good health!"
Zou He looked at Qin Jingru and teased her with a smile: "You should know best whether my health is good or not, right?"
When Qin Jingru heard this and saw the half-smiling expression on Zou He's face, she immediately understood.
His face immediately turned red.
Jiao said angrily: "What nonsense are you talking about!"
After saying that, he quickly turned around and went back to the house.
Zou He smiled and turned to look at Jinlong and Baofeng who were busy building a snowman not far away.
Jinlong walked to Baofeng and said, "Give me your scarf!"
After Baofeng heard this, she didn't know what her brother was going to do, but she still took it down obediently.
The golden dragon took the scarf and carefully wrapped it under the snowman's big head.
With such a decoration, the whole snowman immediately comes to life.
It has a snow-white body, a red pot hat, a nose made of carrots, a mouth made of red dates, big eyes made of black round buttons, buttons made of black carbon blocks on its body, and a red scarf around its neck.
Baofeng looked at such an exquisite and cute snowman and jumped up and down with joy.
"It's done! It's done! It's so beautiful!"
"This snowman is my sister, and that snowman is my brother! Now the snowman has company!"
Seeing Baofeng smiling so happily with no trace of tears on his face, Jin Long suddenly understood.
Said: "It turns out you were pretending to cry when you fell down just now! Just to trick me into building a snowman for you!"
Baofeng giggled, stuck out her tongue, and said playfully: "Brother is so easy to fool! Thank you brother for the snowman, hehe!"
Jinlong couldn't laugh or cry. He immediately grabbed a handful of snow from the ground, rolled it into a snowball, and chased Baofeng and shouted: "Look how I will punish you today! Stop!"
When Baofeng saw that Jinlong was trying to hit him with snowballs, he quickly ran away with a smile, shouting as he ran: "I was wrong, brother! I don't dare anymore! Please spare me!"
Zou He watched from the side and couldn't help laughing.
Hearing Zou He's laughter, Baofeng's eyes suddenly lit up. Alliance ran towards Zou He, threw herself into Zou He's arms, and shouted: "Dad, save me! Brother is going to hit me with a snowball!"
Zou He took advantage of the situation and picked up Baofeng. Baofeng hid in Zou He's arms. He immediately felt dependent and started to laugh happily again.
"Dad, isn't Baofeng very powerful? Did you pretend to cry just now? Even my brother was fooled by me!"
Zou He scratched Baofeng's nose and said dotingly: "You are such a clever little devil!"
After Jinlong chased after him, he smashed the snowball on Baofeng's feet and said, "Humph! You little liar!"
After saying that, he actually laughed first.
Zou He held Baofeng in one hand and held up Jinlong with the other. When he touched Jinlong's hands, which were cold from the cold, he asked, "Your hands are so cold? Are you cold?"
Jin Long smiled and shook his head, saying, "I'm not cold at all! Dad, when did you come back?"
Zou He hugged Baofeng and pulled Jinlong toward the house, saying, "I've been back for a while and I was watching you two build a snowman."
"Let's go back to the house and warm ourselves by the fire!"
Back in the house, Zou He added a few more pieces of charcoal to the charcoal stove, and the stove immediately started to burn even more vigorously.
Zou He took the hands of the two children and baked them on top of the stove, watching as Jin Long Baofeng's cold little hands were baked with traces of white steam.
Zou He saw that Baofeng's neat little braids were a little loose due to the play just now, so he untied her braids and wanted to braid them again.
But after they dispersed, Zou He was holding his daughter's soft hair in his hands, but he was a little at a loss what to do.
Baofeng felt that her father was at a loss and giggled again.
"Dad, you don't know how to braid your hair, right?"
After hearing this, Zou He said unconvinced: "How is that possible? There is nothing in this world that your father and I can't do."
After saying that, he grabbed his daughter's hair and studied it carefully.
After coming here for a while, Qin Jingru prepared the meal and when she brought the meal into the house, she still saw the same scene.
Baofeng sat on the small stool in front of Zou He and warmed his hands, while Zou He was fiddling with Baofeng's hair.
Qin Jingru couldn't help but smile and said: "I'll do it!"
Zou He waved his hand and said, "No need!"
"I don't believe it. Braiding your hair can still trouble me?"
Qin Jingru couldn't help laughing after hearing this.
In Qin Jingru's eyes, Zou He is indeed omnipotent and omnipotent.
There is nothing that Zou He cannot solve.
Whether it is work or life, Qin Jingru is never afraid of others coming to trouble her in the courtyard, because Zou He is her biggest supporter.
He is her best supporter.
She never worried that someone would bully her. At work, Zou He was a ninth-level fitter in the factory. He also handled matters at work in an orderly manner, so Qin Jingru never had to worry.
However, such a man who knows everything and can do anything is now troubled by his precious daughter's pigtails.
Zou He tossed and turned for a long time, but the hair in his hands was still loose and unbraided.
After trying for a long time, Zou He sighed and had to admit it.
There are really things in this world that he cannot do.
"No, no, I really can't make it up, you have to do it!"
Qin Jingru walked over with a smile, took up Baofeng's hair with both hands, and then twirled her fingers. After a while, a delicate braid was formed.
Zou He praised: "Daughter-in-law, your hands are so skillful!"
Qin Jingru blushed a little and said: "This little thing of braiding hair, what is there to praise? Hezi, you are busy with big things, important things."
Zou He smiled and put his arms around Qin Jingru's shoulders and said: "In my eyes, work matters are as important as braiding my children's hair, building snowmen with them, and walking with you."
Hearing what Zou He said, Qin Jingru was immediately moved. She leaned her head on Zou He's shoulder and said, "Brother Hezi, what good things did I do in my last life? I can actually meet you and be with you in this life. I
I really feel so happy!”
Zou He was also moved in his heart and said: "It's my turn to say this. How many good things have I done to be able to marry such a good wife like you and give birth to two such lovely children?
Live such a happy life!”
The two cuddled up against each other, and the warm fire danced, making the whole house feel even warmer.
…
On one side, Zou He and his family were enjoying themselves happily, with laughter and endless warmth, while on the other side, Yi Zhonghai was sitting in the room with a depressed look on his face.
Thinking of what he saw in the cafeteria today, Yi Zhonghai felt even more bitter.
He lent Qin Huairu money, gave her food, and helped her introduce jobs, so that he could get close to Qin Huairu. After Jia Dongxu died, he could marry Qin Huairu and let Qin Huairu give him a son.
But now, just when he was about to succeed, he was discovered by Xu Damao.
Xu Damao got in the way.
Before he could pull Qin Huairu's little hand, Xu Damao had already put his arms around Qin Huairu's shoulders. Thinking of the scene he saw at noon, Yi Zhonghai couldn't help but let out a long sigh, feeling extremely depressed.
Now that Xu Damao, a scoundrel like him, has come between him and Qin Huairu, when can he get closer to Qin Huairu?
Just when Yi Zhonghai was feeling depressed, he heard a gentle knock on the door. Yi Zhonghai walked over and opened the door. He saw that the person standing outside the door was Qin Huairu.
Seeing Qin Huairu, Yi Zhonghai was overjoyed at first, then thought of the scene in the canteen at noon, the joy on his face immediately disappeared, and he turned around and walked into the house with a straight face.
Qin Huairu didn't care at all about Yi Zhonghai's cold face and followed in with a smile.
"Master, what's wrong with you? I'm here and you don't pay attention to me?"
Yi Zhonghai sighed and said, "What's wrong with me? You still don't know?"
"We were having dinner last night, and we were caught by Xu Damao. I don't know if he would go out and talk nonsense. If this is revealed, the reputation and face I have saved in my life will be completely ruined."
Qin Huairu glanced around to see what was there to eat, and said, "We haven't done anything, so there's nothing to be afraid of. I'll just come and sit in your room. What can he say?"
"
Seeing a bamboo basket on the table covered with a rag, Qin Huairu knew in her heart that it must be food.
She sighed and said, "Master, you are one of the few good people in our courtyard. I believe you can clearly see how I am doing at home."
"I usually go to work and bring vegetables and steamed buns to my house when I come back. Just like this, my mother-in-law is not nice to me either. She beats and scolds me at every turn. I am really not living a human life at home!"
As Qin Huairu spoke, she wiped the corners of her eyes with her sleeves.
Yi Zhonghai was originally unhappy because of the intimate behavior between Xu Damao and Qin Huairu he saw in the cafeteria at noon, but now he saw Qin Huairu crying like a pear blossom with rain, and he immediately softened his heart again.
"I naturally see how you are doing at home. You are such a virtuous daughter-in-law, but your mother-in-law still treats you like this. It is really a bad conscience!"
"I feel heartbroken just looking at it!"
Hearing what Yi Zhonghai said, Qin Huairu felt secretly proud.
She knew that no matter what she did, as long as she squeezed out a few tears, any man would be soft-hearted.
No, as soon as he said these two words and wiped the corners of his eyes, Yi Zhonghai's attitude softened.
"Master, I know you are a good person. You are the only one in this whole courtyard who truly cares about me!"
After Qin Huairu said these two sentences, Yi Zhonghai showed a hint of joy on his face.
But when he thought of something, Yi Zhonghai's expression became hesitant again.
"Huairu, I naturally know what kind of person you are. Otherwise, I wouldn't be so kind to you, but..."
Having said this, Yi Zhonghai did not continue.
Qin Huairu was eager to suck Yi Zhonghai's blood. Seeing him hesitating, she urged: "But what?"
"Master, with our relationship, if you have anything to say, you can't say it directly!"
Hearing what Qin Huairu said, Yi Zhonghai felt as if a flower had bloomed in his heart, feeling happy.
‘Our relationship’…
It seems that Qin Huairu also feels that she has a close relationship with him!
I was busy finding her a job and lending her money, but my hospitality was not in vain.
Then he said: "Today at noon, I saw Xu Damao with my own eyes in the cafeteria. He put his arm around your shoulders..."
Hearing this, Qin Huairu immediately understood.
No wonder he came to see Yi Zhonghai. His face looked so strange. It turned out that he saw himself and Xu Damao together.
Qin Huairu didn't panic at all. She had experienced this kind of thing many times.
With her ability, she could call white things black, so it would be a piece of cake to clear up the suspicion for herself.
"Master, I thought you were unhappy because of something, but it turns out it's because of this!"
"Hey, Master, if others misunderstand me, forget it. I, Qin Huairu, will never explain to people who don't understand me. But Master, I always feel that you are the person who understands me best. Why do you even say that?
Woolen cloth……"
Seeing Qin Huairu looking like she was crying, Yi Zhonghai immediately softened his heart and said quickly: "I was just asking, I have no other intention..."
Qin Huairu continued: "Then Xu Damao bumped into me coming to your house yesterday and kept threatening me with that matter. As a woman, what can I do? I can only try my best to follow him and not anger him!"
"I didn't expect that he would go even further and even want to put his arm around my shoulders..."
"How can I, a woman, be a match for a grown man like him..."
Qin Huairu's eyes turned red as she spoke.
When Yi Zhonghai saw it, his heart melted immediately. He didn't know how to comfort him and said, "Don't cry, don't cry! It's all my fault! I asked the wrong question, I shouldn't ask you!"
"Hey! I am, just..."
"I will never ask you again!"
"OK?"
Hearing what Yi Zhonghai said, a hidden smile appeared on Qin Huairu's lips.
Sure enough! This trick of hers is really tried and true...
Seeing that Yi Zhonghai had been firmly grasped by her, Qin Huairu said: "I came back from the factory today and brought five steamed buns. As a result, my mother-in-law Jia Zhang ate two by herself.
indivual!"
"The rest was shared between Bangge and his father! But I didn't even get a bite!"
"Master, please tell me, I wholeheartedly serve this family and them, why don't any of them care about me?"
"No one asked me if I was hungry, let alone gave me something to eat..."
"I haven't eaten a single morsel of food since noon..."
"Master, tell me, why is my life so miserable?"
The more Qin Huairu talked, the more aggrieved she became and started sobbing.
Seeing this, Yi Zhonghai hurriedly said: "Don't cry, don't cry! Isn't it just food? If they don't give it to you, I will give it to you!"
