Not long after Ni Yinghong and the others left, Chu Heng and the others also finished eating. Qin Jingru was worried about the slippery road, so she helped the old lady and the two sisters back to the house, and then returned to the main room to help Yang Guizhi clear the table.
Chu Heng fell down on the Arhat bed and smoked like an uncle. Huniu and Chu Zhecheng were lying on either side of him. When he saw Qin Jingru coming in, he asked casually: "Jingru, what do you plan to bring back?"
"Just bring something to eat." Qin Jingru pursed her lips when she heard this: "With the virtues of my mother and my sister-in-law, even if I brought good things, I probably wouldn't be able to get them into my father's mouth, and I would have to give them to my nephew.
.”
"That's true."
Chu Heng smiled helplessly, he was also very lucky to the wonderful mother-in-law and daughter-in-law.
"Jingru's mother is really capable." Yang Guizhi couldn't help but said: "I have never seen such a mother in my life."
As she said that, she quickly piled the dishes together, picked them up and turned out.
Qin Jingru, who was cleaning the table, paused after hearing the action and sighed gloomily: "Brother, what kind of fate do you think I have? Why do I end up with such a mother?"
"Everyone has their own hardships, don't think about it too much. Besides, aren't you living a good life now?" Chu Heng comforted softly.
Qin Jingru raised her head and looked at her lover who looked like a salted fish. She smiled with happiness on her face: "Well, I don't want to think about it anymore. I am content to live the life I have now."
"That's right, you must learn to appreciate what you have, and don't always envy others. As the saying goes, you will always be happy when you have enough!"
"Well, I understand. Brother, just rest. I'll go tidy up. I'll call you when you're done."
Qin Jingru nodded with a smile, turned around and walked out of the main room carrying the rag.
Not long after.
After getting dressed, she went to the main room to find Chu Heng.
She wears a brand new set of navy blue clothes, a red scarf around her neck, a pair of small black leather shoes on her feet, and a long braid on her head, which is thick and black and hangs down to her waist. She looks very similar.
Reins.
In later generations, this look would have seemed too earthy, but now it seems that it is a very popular look, and not even wealthy people can wear it.
"Let's go, brother, let's go to the grocery store first and I'll buy something."
"Okay."
Chu Heng got up and followed her to the door. He took the general's cloth from the hanger and put it on, then tied the scarf that Ni Yinghong had knitted for him out of his younger brother's woolen pants before coming out of the room.
Soon the two of them left the yard and drove out of Banchang Hutong.
Not long after, they stopped at a nearby grocery store. Chu Heng didn't get out of the car. Qin Jingru went in and walked around on her own, then came out quickly carrying two net bags.
She really didn't buy anything.
A box of Prairie Sisters biscuits, a pack of pastries, a pack of candy bars, two bottles of cans, a pack of Warrior cigarettes, two bottles of Erguotou wine, that's all.
After she got in the car, Chu Heng looked at the things, raised his eyebrows and said, "Why did you buy so much? You haven't been back for a long time, why don't you buy more."
"No, these are enough, let's go, brother." Qin Jingru said with a smile.
"Okay."
Chu Heng shook his head and said nothing more. He skillfully put the car into gear, stepped on the accelerator and sped away.
The two chatted and laughed all the way, and soon left the city through Guangqumen.
"Hey, that's right."
At this moment, Chu Heng suddenly asked Qin Jingru, who had just tied his shoelaces, "Do you remember the film policeman who was thrown out by Duan Fengchun when we were in the Yu family courtyard yesterday?"
Qin Jingru moved her sore cheeks and asked curiously: "A little bit, what's wrong with him?"
"I feel like that guy seems to be interested in Duan Fengchun." Chu Heng said with a smile.
"Him?" Qin Jingru's eyes widened in astonishment: "Is there something wrong with him? He was beaten by Sister Feng Chun'er, but he is still interested in her?"
"I don't know this, but it's really interesting to see him like that." Chu Heng asked with a smile: "What do you think of him? How about I help them match up?"
"It's quite suitable." Qin Jingru covered her mouth and chuckled: "There's nothing else. The main thing is that he is very resistant to beatings and is suitable for Sister Feng Chun'er. After the fall yesterday, anyone else would have to lie down for two days, but he seems to be fine.
"
"Yes, I am interested in him resisting the beating. If nothing else, at least no one will be killed."
…
After Volga left the city, he drove for almost half an hour before finally arriving at the village where Qin Jingru’s mother’s family lived.
It is a little-known small village named Liuzhuang, which has never been seen on the maps of later generations.
The car quickly drove into the village from the east end, and what we saw were basically yellow mud houses, with only a few brick structures.
It was already late winter, the production team had little work to do, and the village was full of idle villagers hanging out.
So as soon as the car came in, it attracted the attention of the villagers.
"Oh, is this the village leader here?"
"Bullshit, there isn't even a big-ass Jeep in the countryside, how can we have this car?"
"Eh? I think the person sitting in the car looks like the daughter of Mr. Qin's family!"
"It's true!"
"Oh, this girl is very promising now. I heard she is a city dweller and is eating commercial food."
"What can you do if you become successful? Qin Laosan's family kicked Qin Jingru out at the beginning. How can she not hold a grudge?"
"Hey, I guess the third daughter-in-law will regret it to death now!"
"Let's go and have a look."
The car drove along, attracting many idle villagers to follow, and soon stopped outside a fenced courtyard.
Looking out the car window at the cold and cold courtyard of her parents' house, which had little affection for her, Qin Jingru took a deep breath with a complex expression, opened the door and got out of the car, then walked to the back seat and opened the door to get her things.
"Yes...Jingru is back!"
By chance, a woman came out of the house in the yard next door. At first she saw Qin Jingru, who was wearing sleek clothes and riding in a car only for leaders. She didn't dare to recognize her. She didn't dare to say anything until she saw her clearly.
"Hey, Aunt Tao, it's the Chinese New Year soon. I'll come back to see my dad." Qin Jingru took out something, looked at the woman with a smile, and said politely: "Is your family very nice?"
"Ah, it's good, it's good. What about that? I have something else to do. Let's talk later." The woman's face suddenly became unnatural. She glanced at Qin Jingru evasively, then glanced at Chu Heng who had just gotten out of the car, and hurriedly
Leave.
"Squeak!"
At this time, the door of Qin's house opened, and Qin's mother, son, daughter-in-law and others came out of the house in a panic.
"Oh, you didn't even say a word when you came back."
Qin's mother quickly greeted the two people who entered the courtyard. She looked at Chu Heng fearfully and said unnaturally: "Comrade Chu is here too."
"Um!"
Chu Heng just nodded slightly and didn't want to talk to the old lady at all.
Seeing this, Qin's mother had to smile awkwardly and greeted them: "Let's go, come in quickly."
Qin Jingru casually handed the things to her sister-in-law, who was staring straight at the net bag in her hand, and followed them to the courtyard with an expressionless face: "How is my dad doing?"
Following her question, a look of panic appeared on the faces of the whole family, and then her eldest brother blinked his eyes and said calmly: "Our dad is not at home and has gone to see a doctor in Kaifeng."
"Going to see a doctor?" Qin Jingru stopped, frowned and looked at her family, and asked in surprise: "Why did you travel so far? Who went with you?"
