Chapter 22: Compensation received

Wang Tuzi smiled, but then looked at Chen Weimin obediently. You must know that men usually make the decision in the family, especially the marriage of their children.

Chen Weimin was still hesitating, and Zhao Di was a little anxious. She walked to her man and said two hundred yuan in a very low voice, and Chen Weimin nodded.

Cuihua opened her mouth slightly and saw that Chen Weimin and his wife agreed to the marriage in one fell swoop. She couldn't help but feel chilled for Chunhua. Didn't they love Chunhua the most? But she changed her mind when they saw money and bicycles.

When Tuzi Wang heard the specific answer, he nodded repeatedly, not even willing to take a sip of water. He said hello and left. He was able to break the melon again, which made him happy just thinking about it.

Seeing that things were basically going according to his arrangement, Li Huan went home relieved. There was already a large lunch box of chubby dumplings on the table in the main room. Knowing that it was for Cheng Qiao, he picked up the lunch box and prepared to leave.

"Huan'er, eat some dumplings first and then go. There's no need to come back in a hurry tomorrow."

Mother Li knew that Li Huan would stay with her tonight, so she quickly went to the kitchen and brought a large bowl of dumplings for Li Huan to eat before leaving.

"I understand, mother, you and your sister don't have to be too tired tomorrow. Our family is not short of those cents. By the way, you can take the money and give it to Cheng Qiao as a betrothal gift."

Li Huan took out three hundred yuan and handed it over. Li's mother shook her hand. She had already agreed to give Cheng Qiao two hundred yuan. You can use the money for yourself.

Li Huan smiled and put the money into his mother's hand, picked up the lunch box and left. By the time he hurried to the hospital, the sky had darkened. He was worried that Cheng Qiao was hungry, so he crawled three steps at a time.

Went upstairs.

"Cheng Qiao, are you hungry? Come and eat dumplings."

Cheng Qiao looked at the white and fat dumplings, and her heart warmed. She knew at a glance that these dumplings were made by her future mother-in-law. Li Huan must have bought the meat.

"I was lucky today. I bought some meat on the black market and gave one to the educated youth. Don't forget to collect the money from them when you go back. Forget the ticket, the money is still fifty cents short."

Cheng Qiao knew that even if there was a ticket, the price of meat on the black market would be more expensive than that in a meat joint factory. It was a pity that the meat in her space had once again lost the opportunity to show up.

"You are not allowed to go to the black market in the future. What if you get caught?"

"Daughter-in-law, I understand, isn't it the autumn harvest tomorrow? My mother and sister also need to eat."

"You're not allowed to go there anymore anyway, you know? Have you eaten yet?"

Cheng Qiao rolled her eyes at Li Huan and took the lunch box. With just this look, Li Huan's mouth turned up with joy. How could his wife be so good and care about him wholeheartedly?

"I've eaten. Are you hungry? Do you want me to feed you?"

"No, I hurt my head, not my hand, so I can't ask you to feed me."

Cheng Qiao rolled her eyes at Li Huan again, making Li Huan giggle happily.

"Daughter-in-law, let me tell you something, Chen Chunhua is getting married."

"Marry, who to marry?"

"Did you know that Butcher Wang from the Meat Factory married this guy?"

Cheng Qiao frowned slightly, "Wang Tuzi, so familiar. By the way, is he a distant relative of the Wang family's aunt's wife whose wife died."

"Li Huan, did Wang Butcher's wife die? How did his wife die?"

Li Huan touched the white gauze on Cheng Qiao's head, clenching his fists unconsciously, but his heart was unusually calm.

"Yes, Butcher Wang did kill his wife. He was beaten to death by mistake. It's just that Butcher Wang was lucky and escaped punishment."

Cheng Qiao was shocked, her eyes moistened, and she felt extremely sad. Li Huan could do this for her. In her previous life, she was really blinded by lard.

Fortunately, there is reincarnation in the way of heaven, and she was reborn with her treasure. In this life, she must hold the hand of Li Huan and grow old with him, bear children for him, respect the old and love the young for him.

"Eat it quickly, it won't taste good if it's cold, but I'll keep it warm in the pit of my heart."

Li Huan handed over the chopsticks and turned to go to the tea room. Cheng Qiao took a deep breath to calm down his excitement and started eating bite by bite.

At night, Li Huan made the bed on the bed next to Cheng Qiao. Cheng Qiao, who originally thought that with Li Huan's presence, he would lose sleep, unexpectedly found that he felt more at ease and fell asleep as soon as his head touched the pillow.

Li Huan wanted to say something to Cheng Qiao, but he found that the little girl was asleep. Seeing Cheng Qiao's long eyelashes covering her eyes like a small fan, he couldn't help but stretched out his hand.

But before his hand touched her eyelashes, he took it back. Forget it, he didn't want to disturb the little girl's sleep, but he still kissed her tender face gently, covered her with the quilt, and fell asleep on his bed.

There was nothing to say all night. Early the next morning, Li Huan called Cheng Qiao breakfast. The breakfast was very simple, including a bowl of thick rice porridge, a plate of pickles, and a big meat bun.

"Food for sick patients is good. Look at the thick rice porridge and the big meat buns. It makes me hungry just looking at it."

Cheng Qiao looked at the big meat buns with a strange expression. Isn't it? They are similar to the big meat buns in his grocery store. I don't know if the taste is the same.

Picking up the big meat bun and taking a bite, Cheng Qiao sighed. To say it tastes good, the meat buns nowadays are really delicious. The meat buns in the grocery store always lack a bit of meat flavor.

"Where's your breakfast? Why don't you eat it?"

Cheng Qiao glanced at Li Huan, who was sitting on the edge watching her eating meat buns, and couldn't help but make a fierce face. Li Huan smiled and said that when she finished eating, she would go to a state-owned restaurant to buy it. Sick rice was only provided to the sick.

He has no share.

Cheng Qiao quickly waved his hand and told him to go have breakfast quickly. Li Huan thought about it and felt that he should go back quickly, otherwise someone from the Chen family would come, and Cheng Qiao wouldn't be able to handle it alone.

Sure enough, not long after Li Huan left, Zhao Di ran into the ward with sweat on her face. Today was the autumn harvest, and the men in the family went to the fields at dawn, so she also hurried for a run.

"Cheng Zhiqing, it's time to have breakfast."

"It turns out that my aunt is here. Please sit down. This is a sick meal, so I won't invite my aunt to eat."

"No, no, no, Cheng Zhiqing, I wronged you yesterday. My Chunhua was stupid and was severely criticized by her father. This is seven hundred yuan, which is compensation for you. You should keep it."

Cheng Qiao looked at the thick wad of money he took out from a grain bag, and thought to himself that Chen Chunhua's family was really rich. Even if they received two hundred yuan as a bride price, they still had five hundred yuan.

Zhao Di originally hoped that Cheng Qiao would be embarrassed to shirk it, so that she would have a chance to take back the money, but it was Cheng Qiao who was embarrassed to ask for it anyway. Unexpectedly, Cheng Qiao took the money and slowly started counting it.

"Cheng Qiao, I won't hide it from you. Of these seven hundred yuan, two hundred yuan was borrowed from the village chief's family, and two hundred yuan was a gift from Chunhua. If you accept this money, you must promise not to report it to the police.

Also, you can't change your educated youth spot, otherwise even if I get divorced, I will still have to get the money back from you."
