Chapter 136 Shuijing and Qin Jingru’s Fear

 He ​​Yuzhu was very angry, and the consequences were serious.

Therefore, in the face of Liu Guangfu's provocation, he fought with the opponent again.

Qin Huairu couldn't stand it, and didn't even dare to get close because she was afraid of being beaten.

It wasn't until Yi Haizhong came to the toilet that the fight was stopped.

At this time, there were already many onlookers nearby.

After eating a lot, Zhou Jimin finally left with satisfaction.

Liu Guangfu had to spend money to eliminate disasters today, and Qin Huairu didn't know if he could get compensation from Damantou.

However, according to Qin Huairu's acting skills, there is a high probability that she can get it.

After all, Liu Guangfu just ate a big steamed bun.

Silly Zhu was the most pitiful, he got nothing, his beating and punishment were all in vain.

Fortunately, Qin Huairu gave him a pink punch, which gave him some comfort.

For Silly Zhu, even if Qin Huairu did nothing but stood in front of him and smiled at him, he would be so happy that he couldn't find anything to do with it.

It would be even happier if there was physical contact.

It's summer now, so I don't have much clothes to wear.

If you have physical contact, you will feel better than in winter.

Not to mention the disturbance from everyone in the courtyard, after Zhou Jimin got the steel bars, he went home and started to expand and stabilize the ice cellar.

It took three days to make the ice cellar twice as big as before and divided into two floors.

A lot of ice and food are stored.

After finishing it, he led Ding Qiunan and the others to the ice cellar for a tour.

I gave them a detailed introduction.

And tell them that there are labels on each category of shelves.

There is also an overview form at the door of the ice cellar, so you can quickly find what you want.

Such meticulous management is no different from a supermarket warehouse.

In the past, when Zhou Jimin was here, there would be no shortage of fresh meat, frozen meat, ham and sausages at home.

However, Zhou Jimin left immediately.

If these things are not prepared, they will definitely go hungry.

"You must, must not go to the pigeon market. Even if the meat in the ice cellar is finished, I would rather go to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy meat than go to the pigeon market. Do you hear me?"

Although the meat at Pigeon Market is diverse and fresh.

The key is that it does not require meat tickets.

But what if that place is blocked by the armband team?

He, Zhou Jimin, is not afraid. Ding Qiunan and the others will not be able to escape as long as they are blocked.

Therefore, his advice is very necessary.

"I will try to see if I can apply to go home once every six months or a year."

He is not used to being away from home for too long.

Following his instructions, Ding Qiunan and the others were already in tears.

The three little guys didn't know what happened, but when they saw everyone crying, they wiped away their tears.

"No, why are you crying? It's not like I won't come back? If you are crying like this, will I go?"

Zhou Jimin's heart was heavy, but on the surface he pretended to be relaxed.

There is a saying that when the spring breeze is triumphant, the horse's hoofs are diseased, but you don't believe that there is separation in the world.

Only at the moment of separation did he realize that every bit of his life had been engraved in his blood.

When you step on the train to a distant place, the scenery of your hometown comes into your heart.

Only when you miss me from afar will you understand that this is life, this is life.

When the sky was still white, Zhou Jimin had already washed himself and dressed up.

The luggage has been placed on the jeep at the door.

Ding Qiunan and the others all stood and watched him leave.

Zhou Qingxian's three little ones are still sleeping, because Zhou Jimin doesn't want them to know, otherwise he won't be able to leave today.

When the jeep he was sitting in disappeared around the corner, Ding Qiunan and the others couldn't help but burst into tears.

Looking at the receding scenery in the rear mirror, Zhou Jimin's eyes turned red.

The jeep arrived at the train station soon.

In scientific research tasks, there is no trace of affection between children, but only a sense of suffocating pressure and tension.

Along the way, Zhou Jimin was indifferent to these things.

He is only interested in scenery.

"What's going on?"

On the train, Zhou Zhennan, who was setting out with the brigade, looked at Zhou Jimin and asked Lao Lin beside him.

The latter rolled his eyes and lost two words: hypocritical!

Zhou Zhennan suddenly felt a toothache, but after thinking about it, it was normal.

When he first joined the army, he also missed home.

Later, I got used to it and felt that it was just like that.

Life is full of reunions, joys and sorrows, and it is normal to not be able to empathize with them.

Amidst the clanging sound, Zhou Jimin changed completely in less than five days.

When I left home, I was just eighteen years old.

Now, there is no difference between young and middle-aged people in their thirties and forties.

If you don’t shave, you will look untidy.

My hair has not been washed and is very greasy.

My lips are chapped and my expression is very sad.

"I said, it's been almost a week, and we are about to arrive at our destination. Why don't you take this opportunity to take a shower?"

At the transfer station base, Zhou Zhennan couldn't help but give him a reminder when he saw Zhou Jimin sitting in a daze on the steps at the door.

After entering the desert, it is truly no man's land.

At that time, it will be impossible to take a bath.

The most expensive thing in that place is water.

"Is there any difference between taking a bath and not washing in this wretched place?"

It's hot, dry, and there are sandstorms, so taking a shower is useless.

Seeing that he was disobedient, Zhou Zhennan stopped saying anything.

Soon, the large army set off.

The means of transportation is also very touching, that is, the horse-drawn carriage.

The animal pulling the carriage is not a horse, but a camel.

In the desert, camels are the best means of transportation.

The person driving the carriage was not an old man, but a young man.

Judging from the childish face and thin body of the other party, he is probably about the same age as the third child.

But the face is very old and cracked.

Zhou Jimin didn't show any kindness, and he didn't even have the desire to chat with the other party.

Just sitting quietly, looking into the distance.

The young man was very eager to study. When driving the carriage, he did not forget to hold a book and glance at it from time to time.

I probably knew something, so I didn’t talk to anyone else along the way.

The principle of confidentiality.

Along the Gobi, passing through the desert, and crossing an unknown distance.

At dusk, Zhou Jimin and his party finally arrived at their destination.

This place is the Gobi Desert between desert and desert.

Not to mention that there is no map navigation now, even if there is, it is probably still unclear.

The natural environment is extremely harsh.

Although it is summer now, the temperature begins to drop not long after the sun disappears below the horizon.

According to locals, in the early morning, the temperature can plummet to single digits above zero.

Sometimes, it can even reach subzero temperatures, and snowfall in June is not surprising.

Zhou Jimin cheered up a little and started his desert journey.

On the first day when I arrived at the station, because it was too late, I didn’t have a meeting or chat with anyone else after dinner, nor did I take a shower, so I just fell asleep.

The next day, he got up immediately and went out for a run.

Running is just an excuse, getting to know the entire camp is the purpose.

I learned from the soldiers guarding the area that this place is not big, but there are still a brigade of people stationed there.

It is unknown how many soldiers there are and how many scientific researchers there are.

Those who can come here are not ordinary people.

I was told long ago to keep it a secret.

If the soldier hadn't been detained by his superiors, Zhou Jimin would have been taken to the dark room for interrogation.

After running around the station a few times and breaking out in a sweat, I returned to my place of residence.

In the next few days, there will be various meetings.

Meetings like this will become the norm for a long time to come.

After the novelty wore off, Zhou Jimin began to plan to create some benefits for himself.

First of all, the first problem that needs to be solved is drinking water.

The nearest village to the station is more than a hundred kilometers away. Want to drink water?

You can only rely on others to deliver it.

There is a small oasis more than 20 kilometers away from the station.

However, there is no water there, otherwise the station must be placed over the oasis.

Therefore, if Zhou Jimin wants to solve the drinking water problem, he can only rely on looking for underground water.

In fact, before setting off, he had stored a lot of water resources in the space.

But this water must not be used directly.

Return to space, turn on the computer, and search for how to find underground water sources in the desert.

A lot of answers came out.

Search for ancient river channels, dive in rivers, dive at the edge of lake basins, etc.

The location of the station is itself a basin.

The terrain is high on all sides and low in the middle.

There are also several entrances and exits. If nothing unexpected happens, this should be the former river.

However, there are many scientific researchers in the station itself, doesn’t anyone understand this?

Then there are the locals, who will definitely understand better.

Then no one has found groundwater. It seems that there is a problem here.

After tinkering for nearly a week, Zhou Jimin finally found a place to dig a water well in the northeast of the station.

Everyone laughed when they heard him talk about digging a well in this damn place.

Zhou Zhennan, who was about to leave, was also very happy.

"Comrade Jimin, if you can really dig a well, I will give you a reward from above on your behalf."

"I don't want awards, I want to take leave!"

"This doesn't work, everyone can't take leave, no exceptions."

He knew he couldn't ask for leave, so he wasn't disappointed.

After pouting, continue working.

"Comrade Zhou, don't bother yourself. Geologists have confirmed before that there is no water here."

An old man in his fifties reminded kindly.

The old man Fang Jiuchun is a mechanical expert and an eighth-level worker with a strong body.

Several other experts and scholars nearby also spoke out to persuade.

Zhou Jimin remained unmoved and just did it.

The soldiers stationed at the station also came to watch, as if they were watching a monkey show.

While taking a break, Zhou Jimin frowned and said dissatisfied:

"Are you all done? Why don't you come over to help?"

Everyone laughed loudly, many shook their heads and left, but more people still did not leave.

"I tell you, if I dig out water, don't use the water I drink if you don't help me."

The soldier leader at the station, a school officer-level cadre Zhang Qingquan, smiled and said:

"Comrade Zhou, we promise not to drink the water you dug out."

"Are you sure?"

"Of course, we soldiers are the most reasonable."

"Let's make a pledge!"

Another leader of the same level, Lin Wuwang, spoke quarrelsomely.

"Old Lin, shut up, why are you everywhere?"

Zhang Qingquan said angrily, but Lin Wuwang continued to tease him with a smile.

Zhou Jimin was speechless. It turned out that these two people were mortal enemies.

Forget it, I don’t want to be like these fools.

During the first day of rest, we only dug a few square meters in total, and the depth was only more than ten centimeters.

Suddenly, he turned on the violent mode.

In just one morning, I reached a depth of more than half a meter.

The soldiers who came back from the exercise were all shocked when they saw it.

"Damn it, this weak scholar has such good physical strength?"

"Officer Zhou is so awesome!"

"Too cruel!"

Fang Jiuchun and other experts who were preparing to work were also surprised when they saw this scene.

During the meeting, I was even more amazed when I saw that Zhou Jimin was no different from usual, still in high spirits.

Xu Aiguo, one of the big bosses at the station, suddenly praised Zhou Jimin, saying that those of us who do scientific research must have the courage and determination to move forward.

Don't worry about other people's opinions, just like when we were fighting, no one would think much of it, okay?

What now?

Therefore, don’t be discouraged if you feel frustrated or frustrated for a while.

Just hold your breath and rush forward.

All the experts were so ashamed that they lowered their heads.

Zhou Jimin said modestly and then made no further remarks.

It's just chicken soup, it has nothing to do with him.

After work that day, there were many people coming to help at the well.

Fang Jiuchun didn't feel embarrassed when he saw Zhou Jimin's surprised look, but smiled and said:

"Comrade Zhou, you are right. No matter what the outcome is, I still support you."

"I am not as good as you young people in terms of innovation and creation, but I still have a lot of strength."

"Come on!"

The latter nodded and said nothing.

Lin Wuwang led a few soldiers, waving hoes and digging hard.

This scene actually surprised Zhou Jimin.

But he said nothing.

He has changed like this since he came to the desert.

Silence is golden!

From that day on, the work of digging wells accelerated a lot.

Until half a month later, it was dug to 20 meters underground.

The soil is still dry, without any trace of moisture.

Everyone gave up in frustration.

Zhang Qingquan jumped out again and proudly said to Lin Wuwang:

"Have you given up? I have already said that there is no water, so what if you insist on saying that there is water? Do you want to admit defeat?"

The latter was speechless, cursed secretly that a villain has succeeded, and turned around to leave.

Looking at his desolate back, I must feel very uncomfortable.

Zhou Jimin was also pulled by Fang Jiuchun, preventing him from continuing to work in the well.

"It's just a little bit close. Hold on, maybe there is water at a depth of 21 meters?"

"You also said this when we were ten meters or fifteen meters away. Will we still believe it?"

The soldiers also nodded repeatedly.

You can tell by looking at their expressions that this incident is a big blow to them.

It’s not that bad, I’ve been busy for more than half a month, but I’ve gotten nothing.

It’s normal to feel frustrated.

Starting from 20 meters away, Zhou Jimin was left alone to dig the well.

Lin Wuwang and the others were all helping to dump the sediment on the well and holding the rope to prevent Zhou Jimin from having an accident.

Fortunately, the soil in the Gobi Desert is still hard, so no accidents occurred.

When we reached twenty-five meters, there was still no water.

This completely shocked the local bosses.

Xu Aiguo also specifically talked to Zhou Jimin, asking him to stop digging wells because his health was important.

"Leader, don't worry, I'm in good health. I get a good rest every day and I have enough energy to complete my work tasks."

Scientific research is never something you just start doing.

There are so many big guys here, and we have already planned the plan, and just complete the task step by step.

If you encounter a problem, discuss it together, verify the feasibility, and then proceed to the next step.

Therefore, Zhou Jimin only needs to complete the corresponding computer work every day and occasionally express some constructive opinions or ideas.

It’s not that he doesn’t want to advance the accelerated project.

The key is that he has almost no right to speak.

Even if you dig a well, you will be criticized.

What about others?

Maybe when he was in the capital, his abilities in all aspects were very powerful.

But this is a desert, where big guys from all fields gather. He is just an eighteen-year-old young man, nothing more.

Not to mention him, like Fang Jiuchun, he is not only proficient in machine tools, machinery, automobiles and other technologies, but he is also an eighth-level worker. He can be said to be a cutting-edge talent in this field.

Such a talented person also has little say in the station.

In this day and age, people who have drunk foreign ink are still very popular.

"Well, if you dig to a depth of thirty meters and there is still no water, can you just give up?"

Xu Aiguo was silent for a moment, gave up his sincere rhetoric, and directly stated the results.

Zhou Jimin slowly shook his head and said:

"With our current technology, digging to a depth of fifty meters will not be a big problem. Therefore, I will not agree to a depth of thirty meters."

Upon hearing this, Xu Aiguo almost jumped up.

Nima, the depth of fifty meters?

It’s so scary!

I absolutely cannot agree to this, but Zhou Jimin is a stubborn donkey and no one can convince him.

As for filling up the well and tying up Zhou Jimin, that is not a solution to the problem.

Xu Aiguo, who had no choice but to find a few other big guys, could only discuss it.

The result of the discussion was to leave him alone for now.

Digging a well will not alarm so many people.

Right now, scientific research tasks are still important.

In the blink of an eye, another half month has passed.

The depth of the well has reached thirty-six meters.

Lin Wuwang, who was bored, worked hard to pull up a basket of soil and poured it out without paying any attention.

The soldier next to him noticed something was wrong. The soil was actually wet?

After a thrill, the soldier quickly shouted excitedly:

"Palm, the soil is wet, look at it."

Wet soil means there is water below.

Lin Wuwang jumped onto the pile of dirt next to him with a quick stride, turning over the dirt with both hands.

He also doubtfully put the soil into his mouth and tasted it.

After tasting it, he immediately shouted in surprise.

Such a crazy look frightened the soldiers standing guard not far away, and everyone ran over.

Then they looked at the soil together and touched the soil, with expressions of wretchedness and joy.

"Haha, it's really wet soil. Section Chief Zhou is so awesome. He dug all the water out of it?"

"Bah, this soil is too bitter and a bit salty. Isn't it sea water?"

"It's possible. I heard from experts that the Gobi Desert used to be an ocean, and it's normal for seawater to be buried underground."

A group of soldiers were discussing, and Lin Wuwang suddenly roared:

"Why are you arguing? Everyone is just a hindsight. You don't know a few Chinese characters, and you are still pretending to be an expert here? Is it very majestic? Would you be happy if it were sea water? You are not stupid. Get out of here!"

The soldiers dispersed in a hurry. Zhang Qingquan, who came after hearing the news, squatted in the dirt, reached out and touched a handful, put it in his mouth and tasted it.

After a while, Chong Lin Wuwang gloated:

"Haha, this water was dug out. It's a pity that it shouldn't be drinkable."

It's bitter, astringent, and salty. Even if there is water, I definitely can't drink it.

According to this situation, the underground water is either sea water or saline-alkali water.

It can’t be sweet spring water anyway.

After that, he continued:

"Old Lin, why don't you hurry up and pull Section Officer Zhou up? You're in trouble now, shouldn't you be worried?"

Lin Wuwang was also very frustrated. This incident caused, alas, all the joy was in vain.

Zhou Jimin was a little confused after being pulled up.

Before I even came up, I heard Zhang Qingquan’s words and saw Lin Wuwang with a bitter face, and I couldn’t help but be speechless.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading!

The small bucket behind him contains some clean water, which is water that overflows from the ground.

"Open your palm and try it?"

Zhang Qingquan was hesitant, but Zhou Jimin handed him the water and took a sip.

It has a sweet taste and a slightly cold taste. It is indeed a rare experience in this hot summer.

An old face turned red instantly.

One moment, he said with certainty that the underground water was not drinkable. The next moment, after pulling Zhou Jimin up, he tasted a mouthful of sweet and delicious spring water.

The slap in the face came too fast, like a tornado.

Lao Zhang wished he could jump into the well and not let everyone see him.

Lin Wuwang, who was next to him, pushed Zhang Qingquan away and carefully held the bowl of water.

After taking a sip, my eyes suddenly lit up.

"Okay, okay, this water is so sweet!"

After praising him several times, he suddenly gave Zhou Jimin a military salute.

The latter was also startled and repeatedly said that there was no need for this.

In a short time, the entire station knew about Zhou Jimin digging the well.

They all ran over in a swarm, scrambling to take a sip.

Boss Xu Aiguo quickly asked Zhang Qingquan and Lin Wuwang to maintain order and prevent trouble.

Although these few sentences are impossible, after all, everyone is a quality person.

However, for safety reasons, precautions must be taken.

The lively atmosphere passed quickly.

Many people were filled with emotion and kept throwing nice words at Zhou Jimin.

If he hadn't persisted to the end, how could we have the sweet and delicious spring water to drink now?

From now on, the station no longer needs to use horse-drawn carriages to pull water from outside.

When the young man pulling the carriage heard this, he was not happy, but depressed.

Because once there is water at the station, he no longer needs to pull the carriage.

If he can't pull the carriage, he will continue to work in the village.

But rather than facing the earth with his back to the sky, the young man prefers the life of pulling a carriage, because this way he can still study and ask questions from the resident expert teachers.

Fang Jiuchun is the person to whom young people often ask questions.

Seeing the young man's expression, Fang Jiuchun couldn't bear it.

But the station had rules, so Fang Jiuchun was helpless.

Finally, I told the young man that he usually relies on self-study and writes down all his questions. When he has a task, he can ask for advice when he arrives at the station.

Due to the emergence of water wells, the fate of many people has been changed, but Zhou Jimin knew nothing about it.

Even if I knew, I wouldn't care.

Human society is moving forward and cannot stand still.

If this is the case, then all their efforts at the station will be meaningless.

After the station got a water well, the biggest change was that everyone’s mental outlook completely improved.

At least I can wash my face every day and drink a little more water.

Of course, if you want to take a bath, you are still not in a position to do so.

Unable to solve the bathing problem, Zhou Jimin set his sights on a place a few kilometers away from the station and planned to dig a well there.

This time the well digging work received full support and help from the soldiers stationed there.

Moreover, no one else dared to ridicule Zhou Jimin anymore.

After all, this Gobi Desert already has its first water well.

There is strength in numbers, and with the active participation of the soldiers, the station’s second well appeared more than half a month later.

Moreover, the depth of this well is two meters deeper than the first well.

Despite this, a large amount of sweet water finally allowed the resident to achieve water freedom.

Looking at a group of people cheering and cheering on the Gobi Desert, Zhou Jimin, who was soaked to the skin, lay on the sand and faced the morning light with a bright smile.

With the appearance of the second well, there were suddenly many more people in the station.

The scientific research team that was originally located in another place has also moved here.

Because there are no wells there, so it would be too troublesome to deliver water manually.

Simply move here.

It just so happened that the station needed to be expanded to encircle the second well.

In this way, a settlement larger than a village was quickly formed.

Zhou Jimin moved his residence directly to the second well and built a stone house with his own hands.

The materials for the stone house are easy to obtain, and they are all obtained when digging wells.

It's not very strong, it just needs to be able to block wind and rain.

The walls are very thick and it’s very warm inside.

And a vegetable patch was cultivated at the door.

I still want to grow vegetables!

This shocked everyone.

Growing vegetables on the Gobi Desert?

What kind of international joke are you kidding?

However, when Zhou Jimin asked people to pull back the fertile pond bottom mud, everyone realized that this matter was not that simple.

There is no farmyard fertilizer, so we can only rely on the excrement produced on site to fertilize.

After this operation, all the local bosses were speechless.

I always feel that Zhou Jimin came to the desert not to do scientific research, but to farm.

This is not a feeling, but a fact.

Summer has passed quickly, and autumn is coming soon.

The vegetable field is still bare, and the fertilization work is still in progress.

On this day, Zhou Jimin called on the soldiers to help build a kiln.

He wants to make glass.

Such wild imagination directly made Xu Aiguo furious.

I went to talk to Zhou Jimin and tried to persuade him not to do any more petty tricks.

"Leader, did I disrupt the station? Did I fail to complete the task?"

Xu Aiguo was stunned speechless.

I thought, if it really doesn’t work, I should report it and let Lao Lin or Zhou Zhenguo deal with this problem.

Since there is no such thing, Zhou Jimin cannot be blamed.

Then, the noisy work of building the earthen kiln began.

The first thing is to find a suitable place to build a kiln, the second thing is to find the building materials for the kiln, and then comes the construction work.

In addition to these, there is also the issue of fuel.

This is quite simple. There is a small open-pit coal mine dozens of kilometers away from the station.

Using local materials, simple and crude!

It took less than a month for a small earthen kiln to appear.

Then comes the firing of the glass.

The crafting method is simple, but the difficult part is how to bake it.

However, everything is lacking in Goose Station, except intellectuals and hands-on people.

Under the leadership of Fang Jiuchun, glass firing work has progressed rapidly.

In less than a month, a lot of glass was fired.

"Officer Zhou, there is so much glass now, but you haven't said what it will be used for?"

As autumn enters, the nights at the station are already below zero.

It's very cold.

The soldier sighed and chatted with Zhou Jimin, asking curiously.

The latter smiled and shook his head, saying just wait and see.

Within a few days, Zhou Jimin started working on the vegetable field.

The vegetable plot that has been fertilized for several months now covers an area of ​​more than two acres.

There are also many stone walls built around the vegetable field.

All that needs to be done now is to cover the vegetable field with a glass top, then provide heat and grow vegetables!

Until this moment, no one knew what he wanted to do.

The big guys who were immersed in scientific research tasks immediately laughed when they heard the news.

This Zhou Jimin knows how to satisfy his appetite.

In a blink of an eye, it’s already winter.

The temperature rises during the day and can reach more than ten degrees, which is very comfortable.

At night, the temperature is ten or twenty degrees below zero, which can freeze people to death.

The houses in Zhouji built with stone houses are as warm as spring.

Because the wall is very thick, the wind and snow from outside cannot get in.

As long as you burn the kang in the house, it will be very warm.

On a cold day, eating hot pot, as well as all kinds of vegetables, meat, etc., don’t be too happy on this small day.

Although this place is inaccessible, it is so enjoyable to have a delicious meal.

Even in cities, such a life is rare.

It has been half a year since I entered the desert in summer.

As for the scientific research project, it is less than 3% completed so far. Many trials and errors and unnecessary steps have slowed down the overall progress.

From being a little transparent at the beginning, to now, Zhou Jimin is somewhat famous in the station.

Although he still has little say, with two wells, an earthen kiln and a glass greenhouse vegetable patch, in the minds of many people, Zhou Jimin is also a capable person.

At the meeting that day, Zhou Jimin was tired of the complicated calculation work and asked if he could build a machine to replace these tasks?

"Where did the machine come from?"

"Don't we have computers?"

"Shit, I've seen all that stuff, and it's basically useless. The simplest addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division are fine, but something a little more complicated won't work."

After a few simple conversations, Dong Wenbin, the leader of the computing team, rejected Zhou Jimin’s proposal.

The latter argued with each other, saying that of course those gadgets for elementary school students were no longer working, but couldn't they just replace them with a better one?

No money!

With just two words, Zhou Jimin was dismissed directly.

However, Zhou Jimin will not give in.

After the meeting, apply to the resident bosses immediately.

Beijing, Nanluoguxiang courtyard.

In the early morning, Qin Jingru, who was neatly dressed, checked her clothes and face again and again before opening the door and preparing to go to Zhou's house in Nanjianzi Hutong.

Qin Huairu is already squatting here at the well washing sink, washing clothes.

When I saw my cousin going out, I quickly said hello with a smile.

Qin Jingru agreed indifferently, but Qin Huairu waved to the former to come closer and chat.

"Cousin, if you have any questions, just say it directly. There is no need to do this."

Qin Jingru, who really disliked her cousin, expressed her impatience.

However, Qin Huairu suddenly whispered something, which almost made her run away.

"Jingru, are you pregnant?"

"Cousin, what are you talking about?"

Qin Jingru said with a frightened voice:

"Cousin, I'm a young lady. Don't talk nonsense, or I'll tell you, Uncle Yi, and Liu Guangfu about going into the vegetable cellar."

Ga!

Qin Huairu, who originally thought she had grabbed her cousin's braid, now widened her eyes.

The two sisters expose each other's shortcomings, both of which are fatal.

This early morning is quite lively.

Seeing that she couldn't control her cousin, Qin Huairu had no choice but to say:

"I was wrong about that, Jingru, are you going to work at his house?"

"I don't have to go to work any day? Do you think I'm just like you and have such a good life?"

Qin Jingru rolled her eyes cutely, flicked her twin ponytails, turned around and walked towards the front yard.

Behind her, Qin Huairu was secretly envious.

When you go to work at Zhou Jimin's house, you don't go to work, you go to enjoy yourself.

Taking care of the baby, doing hygiene, and cooking are not too easy tasks.

Unfortunately, this job is not for her.

Otherwise, there would be no need for her to trick Liu Guangfu?

However, thinking of Liu Guangfu, Qin Huairu's face turned red again.

Compared with Silly Zhu, Liu Guangfu is more difficult to deal with.

If she hadn't stuck to the bottom line, she would have been wiped out by Liu Guangfu.

Fortunately, she did not suffer any loss and got a lot of benefits. Anyway, she had enough money to buy steamed buns for her three children.

In the front yard, Yan Laojie is brushing his teeth in front of his house.

Seeing Qin Jingru coming out, she smiled and said hello.

But Qin Jingru still has the same zombie face that no strangers should approach, and she can’t even smile once more.

After she twisted her butt and left, Yan Bugui pooped into the ditch.

What's so cool about breaking shoes?

That's right, in Yan Laoji's opinion, Qin Jingru relied on her face and figure to win Zhou Jimin's favor and was allowed to work in the Zhou family.

Although in name only, Qin Jingru went to work at Zhou's house, it was not called work, but a place to stay.

But in fact, everyone knows what that means.

Anyway, according to the saying decades ago, she was just a maid.

As a seventh-rank official in front of the prime minister, Qin Jingru relied on Zhou Jimin's support to live a better life than the others in the courtyard. She could not hide her pride, which was normal.

After all, you can’t expect a sixteen-year-old girl to be mature enough to be indifferent to emotions, right?

That’s so hard!

Returning to Nanjianzi Alley, Qin Jingru touched Wangcai's heads and started a busy day.

In fact, it’s not too busy.

There isn't much work to do at home, just cleaning and cooking.

As for taking care of children, that’s not called work at all, it’s called relaxing.

In the morning, when Qin Jingru and Zhou Qingxian and their three little ones were wandering around the door, they saw a woman not far away staring at them.

This scene made Qin Jingru a little nervous and dissatisfied.

"Wangcai, Dahuang, take good care of your little master."

The two big dogs barked, and Zhou Qingxian patted Wangcai's head and asked Qin Jingru, why does that big sister keep staring at us?

Qin Jingru also wants to ask this question.

"Forget it, ignore her, let's go back."

After thinking about it, Qin Jingru thought it would be better not to cause trouble, so she prepared to take Zhou Qingxian and the others back.

Unexpectedly, the woman suddenly ran forward quickly.

When they were still more than ten meters away, Wangcai and the others bared their teeth in fear and stopped in place.

"Hello, comrade, please don't get me wrong. In fact, I know her and I also know Zhou Jimin."

Li Meifeng was scared and surprised, and hurriedly explained to Qin Jingru.

The latter's face was full of suspicion and vigilance, but he did not speak.

Seeing this, Li Meifeng directly said Qin Jingru's name, as well as Zhou Qingxian's and the others' names.

Even the birthdays of Zhou Qingxian and the three little guys were accurately stated.

Qin Jingru's eyes widened in shock and she became more vigilant.

Zhou Qingxian and the other three little guys were full of curiosity, feeling that this big sister was so strange.

Especially Zhou Qingxian, she looked at the eldest sister in front of her and felt that she was very kind.

Qin Jingru waved Wangcai and Dahuang back, then looked at Li Meifeng and said:

"Excuse me, what can I do for you? Why haven't I seen you?"

"This is also my first time here. I heard from my neighbor before. By the way, my neighbor's name is Fan Zhaodi. You should have met her. She is Xiaoxian's wet nurse."

Li Meifeng was so excited that she continued to say a lot.

"I just came to see Xiaoxian. I have no other intention. Are you going home? When will you go out for a walk next time?"

"Yes, we are going back. You don't have a career to go back to."

Seeing that Li Meifeng was a little nervous, Qin Jingru didn't want to talk more, so she pulled a few children and walked home.

Zhou Qingxian suddenly said, "Hello, big sister, may I get to know you? I think you are very good-looking."

The little guy feels that the other party is friendly, but he doesn’t know how to say it.

When Li Meifeng heard this, she trembled all over and was very excited.

Squatting down, looking straight at Zhou Qingxian and saying:

"Hello, you have such a sweet mouth, but I am not a big sister. If you want to call me...Auntie, my name is Li Meifeng. Xiaoxian, do you remember it?"

The child is over two years old, and this is the first time she has seen Zhou Qingxian so close.

"I remember, big sister." Zhou Qingxian said crisply, and then invited:

"Sister, do you want to come to my house to play? We have many fun toys at home."

"No, no, Xiaoxian, Auntie will come to see you again. You have to be obedient and don't run around."

After saying that, Li Meifeng stood up and left in a hurry.

She was afraid that if it was too late, she wouldn't be able to help crying.

Zhou Qingxian was confused and asked Qin Jingru if her eldest sister was angry with her?

But my sister Zhou Qingyi suddenly said, that’s aunt, you called me the wrong sister.

The younger brother said, "She is the big sister. Dad taught us that when we see someone about the same age as our mother, we should call her big sister to be sweet.

The two twins got into an argument because of this.

Qin Jingru quickly picked up the two children and said to Zhou Qingxian: "Xiaoxian, let's go, we are going back. The aunt just now should not be angry, but she is weird, let's ignore her."

He said he should ignore the other party, but within a few days, Li Meifeng came again.

In this way, after going back and forth, Li Meifeng and Qin Jingru became familiar with each other.

Although the latter still has some vigilance, it is much lower than before.

On the contrary, Zhou Qingxian likes to stay with Li Meifeng.

In the eyes of the little one, such a beautiful aunt gives her a strange sense of intimacy, just like her mother.

Also, auntie brings a lot of gifts to her every time she comes.

Although there is no shortage of gifts at home, there are many gifts that are not available at home.

It made her and her younger siblings very happy.

Three little guys were playing nearby, while Li Meifeng was chatting with Qin Jingru.

"Sister Jingru, there is something I want to remind you, but I just don't know whether I should say it or not."

Everyone understands the principle of communicating in a simple way but speaking in a profound way.

From her neighbor Fan Zhaodi, Li Meifeng knew the Zhou family well.

Although she only had brief contact with Qin Jingru a few times, she liked Qin Jingru very much, so she couldn't help but want to remind her.

Because she really doesn’t want others to hurt Zhou Qingxian because of something.

Li Meifeng very much hopes that the Zhou family will always be safe and sound, and would rather see Zhou Qingxian grow up carefree.

She is happy to help within her ability.

However, if she directly reminds Qin Jingru, it may be a superficial exchange, or even have ulterior motives.

"What happened?"

Qin Jingru pretended to be calm and said calmly, but in fact, she felt quite panicked.

Since her cousin found out last time, she has become more cautious.

In her opinion, the reason her cousin could see through her was because she had given birth to three children and was very experienced.

Secondly, this is her first time being pregnant, so she has no experience, so it’s normal.

But now, she pays great attention to these aspects, so she shouldn’t have been discovered, right?

However, according to Murphy's Law, if you are worried about something happening, then it is more likely to happen.

"Don't blame my sister for talking too much."

Li Meifeng looked around and found no one, so she approached Qin Jingru and whispered:

"You are too careless. The baby in your belly is already four months old, right? I don't want to know who the father is, but I know you are not married, so you'd better cover your belly."

The latter immediately looked at Li Meifeng in horror. Is she clairvoyant? Can she see clearly?

Seeing the other party's expression, Li Meifeng knew she was right.

So he continued:

"I know you've made preparations, but it's not enough. When the wind blows, don't you pay attention to your belly?"

"You are lucky now. Your belly is not big yet, so most people can't tell. But any woman who has children will definitely notice it if she stays with you for a while."

"Since you are pregnant out of wedlock, you must either abort the child or make all preparations to give birth to the child alone."

At this time, Qin Jingru was completely panicked.

He quickly grabbed the other person's arm and said in a trembling voice:

"Sister Mei Feng, what should I do?"

This matter worries her to death.

Not only can you not tell others, but you must always be on guard against others.

Especially Ding Qiunan and Huang Xiaohua, if they both find out, she will be in trouble.

So, during this period of time when eating.

She basically carries the dishes and chopsticks and goes outside to eat alone.

There is no chance for others to notice her morning sickness.

Fortunately, she is lucky, her morning sickness reaction is not strong.

And it goes as quickly as it comes.

Only then did we escape.

"Sister Jingru, if you believe it, then do as I say."

"I believe it, I believe it, sister, what should I do?"

"Pretend to be fat!"

Huh?

Hearing Li Meifeng's words, Qin Jingru was dumbfounded.

Before she could say anything, Zhou Qingxian's childish voice suddenly came:

"Auntie, what do you mean by pretending to be fat?"

The little guy was most curious, and she happened to hear it again, so she had to know the answer.

"It's nothing, I'm just pretending to be fat."

Li Meifeng rubbed the little guy's head, her eyes full of doting and love, and said softly:

"Why don't you play with your younger brothers and sisters?"

"It's not fun, they always make trouble, it's so annoying."

"Haha, don't dislike your younger brothers and sisters. They are not as old as you. You are the older sister and you have to take care of your younger brothers and sisters. Do you understand?"

"Got it."

Zhou Qingxian responded crisply, and then stuck out her tongue playfully:

"As verbose as my parents, just a little bit!"

Then he ran away, making both Li Meifeng and Qin Jingru laugh.

The naive little kid is always so cute.

Next, Qin Jingru asked again.

After getting the answer she wanted, Qin Jingru breathed a sigh of relief.

Don’t you just eat more and often say you are fat?

No problem, she can do it for the sake of her children.

But there is still the most critical point, which is what to do during production?

Li Meifeng gave her the advice to give birth in the old house where she lives now.

"Then can you come over and help me then?"

The confused Qin Jingru shook her head immediately after asking this question:

"No, no, the place where I live is too messy, I will definitely be criticized."

"Sister Mei Feng, can I go to your home to give birth?"

Only in this way can she perfectly avoid the group of people in the courtyard.

After all, once she is discovered, she will be in trouble.

You will definitely be scolded secretly for the rest of your life.

It may even put Zhou Jimin into trouble.

"Yes, yes, but I'm afraid you won't be able to make it in time."

How can childbirth be so simple?

Li Meifeng thought about it and suggested that she take a few days off and then go to the hospital to give birth.

"Anyway, you must have saved some money now, so you don't have to worry about anything else when you give birth in the hospital."

"After the birth, if you feel at ease, I will help you take care of the baby."

"Wait for a while, find a reason, and then take the child with you."

Well, if we follow Li Meifeng's plan, then everything will be perfect.

But for what reason do you keep your children with you?

She is not a wealthy person and does not have a regular job. Working in the Zhou family does not count.

So, how can it be suitable to adopt a child?

Regarding this issue, I can only think about it slowly.

The most important thing now is to pretend to be a fat man, and then disguise yourself well.

Within a few days, Ding Qiunan and the others felt very curious.

Qin Jingru always says that she is fat, but she still eats a lot as usual.

What?

Have you given up treatment?

She is only sixteen years old!

However, no one pays much attention to it.

What's more, Ding Qiunan is also pregnant, so how can she have time to worry about such trivial matters?
