Chu Heng and Ni Yinghong were busy in the front room for a while before returning to the back room with satisfaction.
As soon as she sat down in the office, Xiao Ni saw that there was no water in her husband's water glass. She reached out to pick up the glass and stood up to fill him with water.
"Sit down quickly!"
Chu Heng was not willing to let her pour the water. He stood up in a hurry and walked over to snatch the cup. He touched his wife's head with a look of pity and said softly: "You don't know what kind of body you have now? What if you touch it?"
What should I do? From now on, you won’t have to do these jobs, and you’ll just keep supporting me honestly, do you understand?”
"Oh, how can you be so squeamish?" Ni Yinghong looked at her overly nervous husband with crooked eyebrows, touched her belly, and felt warm in her heart: "Yu Li just did whatever she was supposed to do when she was pregnant.
Well, nothing happened?"
"She is a family, and we won't compare with her. You have to listen to me on this matter." Chu Heng, who had always loved his wife, stubbornly glared and said, "If you're not afraid of 10,000, then you're afraid of what happens if it's not? From today on, you are Lafayette.
You don’t have to do anything, I’ll cook the food, wash the clothes, clean up, and you can just take charge of the command.”
"Then I will no longer be Miss Jiao." Ni Yinghong said, dumbfounded: "Can I not be like this? I really want to stop doing anything because of pregnancy.
I can't help but make people laugh to death.
"Let's see who dares to talk nonsense! I smashed my teeth and he has the same teeth." Chu Heng suddenly showed his domineering attitude, and there was a touch of coldness on his handsome face:
"My wife, I can feel pain as much as I want! Anyone who dares to compete with me will get me killed!"
So manly!
Ni Yinghong's eyes were suddenly full of little stars, and she bit her lip immediately and decided to fight for herself: "Then I can't just do nothing. How can I stay here?"
"This matter is not negotiable. If you can't stay, stay with me."
Unexpectedly, Chu Heng, who used to be very talkative in the past, was surprisingly overbearing at this time. He refused without even thinking about it. Then the guy happily moved a stool and sat next to his wife, saying: "Hey, we have nothing to do.
It’s time to discuss the name of the child.”
There is also something wrong with this guy. When his wife was not pregnant, she was disgusted with him. Now that he is an expectant father, he is as happy as anything.
"I've thought about it a long time ago!"
Ni Yinghong has been thinking about her child these days. Don't mention her name. She has even planned where her child will go to work in the future. When Chu Heng said this, she quickly mentioned the two things she had been thinking about.
The good name came out.
"How about if the boy is called Wei Wu and the girl is Shengnan? That's great!"
After saying that, the girl raised her smooth chin and gave Chu Heng an expectant look that said, "please praise me now."
Not a bad daddy!
These two names are almost on the streets, okay?!
Chu Heng smacked his lips speechlessly, and immediately wanted to complain about these two bad names, but when he saw his wife's cute little face waiting for praise, he couldn't bear to hold back the words, and then nodded against his will: "Very good,
It’s pretty good, I’ll call it this from now on.”
Forget it, forget it, why am I arguing with a pregnant woman?
Anyway, this name is not for him. If the child complains in the future, then go to his/her mother.
"Yeah, this is what I've been thinking about for a long time." Ni Yinghong suddenly smiled like a flower, blinked her big eyes, and couldn't wait to tell her what she had imagined these days, talking non-stop.
She said that the child would have to take over her class in the future. Chu Hengguan was too big and it would not be worthwhile to take over his class. He also said that he would move out in the future and Xiaolihua’s yard would be used for the child’s wedding...
She talked a lot, and most of them were beautiful thoughts about the future.
However, these are all based on the unchanging foundation of this society.
I don’t know what Xiao Ni will think when one day he witnesses some changes such as the iron rice bowl will be laid off, the house can be sold for tens of thousands, the foot-washing city does not wash feet, and other changes.
At noon, the news of Ni Yinghong's pregnancy had spread among the aunties in the store through unintentional spread.
This can be regarded as a small melon. After all, Chu Heng and Xiao Ni, a handsome man and a beautiful woman, are also a topic of conversation on the street. Things related to them can only be talked about, especially those little wives.
People like to talk about some topics about Chu Heng, such as how handsome he is and what a donkey he is.
Moreover, they have been married for such a long time and still have no children, and someone has already said behind their back that they cannot have children. Now that the rumors are self-defeating, they must talk about it and slap those talkative women in the face.
Shen Yuqin, director of the subdistrict office, also learned the news while chatting with the sisters in the work unit after lunch.
After hearing this, the woman who was called a dominatrix thought for a while, then hurried back to her house to get some tickets for supplements, and rushed to the grain store, intending to express her concern to the people on behalf of the street office...
Well, she just cares, but she doesn’t want to lick Da Da Heng!
When Shen Yuqin arrived at the grain store, the couple had already finished their meal. Chu Hengxian was reading the newspaper to pass the time in boredom. Ni Yinghong, who had eaten three steamed buns at noon, was holding the apple her husband had just bought for her and munching on it.
, a pair of small mouths are moist and look very attractive.
"Congratulations, Director Chu, Xiao Ni." Shen Yuqin entered the room with a smile and slapped the tickets he brought on the table: "I heard that Xiao Ni is pregnant. I came here to express my condolences on behalf of the street office, but there is nothing good.
, it’s just a little tonic ticket, and I’ll go back and buy some good tonic to replenish my body.”
The supplements used by big dogs are almost making their hair grow. Can Chu Heng appreciate this?
But they have good intentions after all, so we can’t dislike them, right?
So Chu Heng quickly put down the newspaper, stood up and shook hands with Shen Yuqin vigorously, pretending to be surprised, and said: "Oh, thank you so much.
Thank you, Director Shen, and thank you to the street. I have not made any contribution to our street. I really deserve it."
"Oh, you can't say that." Shen Yuqin sat down with a smile and opened his mouth with compliments: "If you don't say that you are an advanced member of our street, let's just say that since you took office, our street grain store has never been short of food.
, it’s not like when Director Lian was here, he would go without food for a few days every now and then, so if you can keep the people’s food bags full, that’s your greatest contribution.”
"You are really good at talking." When her husband was praised, Ni Yinghong felt as if she had been wiped with honey. She stood up with a smile and was about to pour some water.
Chu Heng calmly grabbed the cup, took the thermos and poured a glass of water for Shen Yuqin, and started exchanging commercial compliments: "You are so complimentary. It is my responsibility to ensure the food needs of the people. It is nothing.
Contribution, if you want to say this, it has to be you. If it weren't for you, the iron lady, who controls our street, we might not be in such chaos."
"Oh, please stop praising me, otherwise my tail will go up to the sky." Shen Yuqin beamed at the praise. After taking a sip from the water glass, she turned around and chatted with Xiao Ni about some women's affairs.
, most of them are things you should pay attention to during pregnancy and after delivery.
After a while, she said goodbye and left.
Not long after Shen Yuqin left, Qin Jingru and Yu Li, who also received the news, came together again.
Qin Jingru and Yu Li both came empty-handed. The former was carrying a lively old hen, and the latter was carrying a basket of eggs. Although there were only more than twenty, for the Yan family, which was stingy to the core, it was already enough.
It’s no longer young or old.
"Ah, Jingru, Yu Li, why are you here?"
Ni Yinghong was so happy to see her good sister that she didn't even bother to eat the apple she just picked up. She threw it aside and quickly stood up, holding their little hands affectionately.
A smell of plastic spreads in the air...
"Didn't I hear that you are pregnant? Let's come here to see you." Yu Li handed over her basket with a smile, and said self-deprecatingly: "Don't be too little, you know my situation. I'll get my salary."
No, I used my private money in exchange for this. If my father-in-law knew,
You may not know how to criticize me."
"Why do you dislike me? I'm very happy that you can come to see me." Thinking of the stingy Yan Bugui, Ni Yinghong couldn't help but laugh out loud, and then scolded the two of them: "You guys are serious too, buy
What are you talking about? My family doesn’t lack this, so why waste this money?”
"This is what we both want." Qin Jingru put the clucking old hen aside, glanced at the handsome guy over there, and said with envy: "This chicken has been around for several years. Sister-in-law, please look back.
Make soup and drink it to replenish your body."
"Thank you." Ni Yinghong thanked her sincerely, then took the two of them to sit down and started chatting.
Chu Heng cleverly got some water for them, washed a few apples, and quickly got out of the way. Girls had a lot of private conversations together, so he, a gentleman, would not cause any trouble.
After coming out of the office, he strolled to the front room.
There was not a single customer in the store at this time, and the aunts, who were rare, did not share the food, but gathered together with the Lian Qing brothers to study today's TV program.
Seeing this, Chu Heng suddenly remembered that he had to practice for Liu Haokong today, and he would most likely not be able to go back and watch the TV.
He couldn't help but smile bitterly.
I originally wanted to get a TV to please my wife, but unexpectedly, I suddenly turned my home into a movie theater.
Now he can't even put the TV on for a while, otherwise he will have to scare the neighbors away!
Thinking of the way the neighbors were jumping up and down yesterday because they couldn't watch the TV, Chu Heng couldn't help but laugh. Then he pondered again and waved to Lian Qing, who was smarter than him: "Lian Qing, come here."
"well.
Lian Qing agreed and quickly put down the newspaper and ran to him, curiously asking: "What's wrong, brother?"
"That's right. I'm going out for a drink tonight, so I might not be able to go back and put on the TV. I'll give you the key later, and you can put it on when the time comes."
Chu Heng smiled.
"No, no, how could I put that, brother?" Lian Qing waved his hands hastily, he didn't have the guts to touch the TV.
"If it's broken, you don't have to pay for it, so what are you afraid of?" Chu Heng glared at him, pulled the boy over, and told him how to put the TV on and how to solve common problems like he was pouring beans out of a bamboo tube.
The method was taught to him.
"It's not difficult to put on TV, just do it like this, and keep doing it...
After hearing this, Lian Qing blinked in disbelief: "Is it that simple? I thought it was so difficult."
"It's nothing more than extra antennas and multiple screens. It's no different from a radio." Chu Heng smiled and patted his head and asked, "I've taught you everything I need to teach you. Are you confident this time?"
"No problem, I'm sure nothing will go wrong." Lian Qing smiled and patted his chest, already thinking about how to show off in front of his partner at night.
After all, knowing how to make a TV at this time is also a skill!
"Exchange rags for money! Collect scrap copper and iron, broken bottles and cans."
At this moment, a loud shout sounded at the door, and Zhang Yiyan, dressed in rags, walked in carrying a tattered bag.
"Hey, Master Zhang is here! Come in, come in!" Chu Heng hurriedly greeted him, and after some polite greetings, he invited him into the small kitchen in the back room.
There was no other way, the office was occupied by the female dependents, and there were people watching outside, so I had no choice but to run to this room.
"The conditions are simple, don't be surprised." Chu Heng found two stools and sat across from him. He then handed over a cigarette and asked with a smile: "Have you finished all the things?"
"Why don't I come before it's finished?" Zhang took out a slightly worn account book from the broken bag and said with a wry smile: "If my master knew that I used this craft to make false accounts, he would have to jump out of the coffin.
No."
"This is not easy. I will buy you two knives of paper later, and you can burn more." Chu Heng said casually, happily took the newly created account book, flipped through it, and then raised a heartfelt emoji.
Thumbs up: "You really are like this!"
I have to say that Zhang Yiyan's skills are really amazing.
There is nothing wrong with this fake account book, no matter from the creases, traces of use, or handwriting. No one would have guessed it after looking at it.
This thing will be new.
"Do you need to tell me? Even the Japanese could be fooled by the calligraphy and painting I imitated back then, let alone a broken account book." Zhang sneered at his compliment, casually dropped the cigarette on his mouth, stood up, and said goodbye.
: "Come on, let's just leave it like that. I'm going to do my work. Don't forget what you promised me."
"I'll definitely not forget it. When I'm done with this, I'll go have a drink with you." Chu Hengzhen put the account book away seriously and sent Zhang out of the grain store with a polite glance.
After watching him leave, Chu Heng glanced at the Wu Lin people who were staring at him with admiration nearby, touched the account book in his arms, and returned to the shop with a sneer.
In the evening, the sky is filled with red clouds.
Outside the gate of Casserole House, Chu Heng leisurely smoked a cigarette, waiting for Liu Haokong and Shen Tian's family to come over. The bright red light reflected on his body, as if he had been covered with a layer of red gauze. He looks like a groom.
Originally, Ni Yinghong wanted to come and wait for someone else, but Chu Heng felt sorry for his wife and refused to let her out.
Although he also knew that standing or moving would not affect her belly, but he just didn't want his wife to move around.
After a while, I finished smoking a cigarette.
Shen Tian's family also appeared in Chu Heng's sight.
Shen Tian was riding a bicycle, and his eldest son Shen Long was sitting on the frame of the bicycle with an excited look on his face, looking around with his bright eyes.
Zhang Min was riding a women's bicycle behind them. She was wearing a fashionable military green dress today, shiny red leather shoes, and her black and silky hair was flying freely.
Obviously, Zhang Min deliberately went home and dressed up, which shows that she still attaches great importance to the meal.
After the family came to a stop at the entrance of the hotel, Chu Heng stepped forward to say hello with a smile, and casually touched Shen Long's head: "You've grown a lot again."
"Oh, Uncle Chu, people say that if you touch your head, you won't grow taller. Why do you always touch my head?" Shen Long shook his head in dissatisfaction and shook his hand away.
"bump!"
Shen Tian's eyes widened, he raised his leg and kicked the boy's butt, scolding: "Why are you talking to your Uncle Chu? You have no education at all!"
