Meng Xiaoxing was so embarrassed that he blushed and was at a loss for the arrival of the two guests, Lao Liang and Zhou Jimin.
Because there is really no place to sit at home, and there are no extra cups to pour water for the two guests, let alone drink tea.
In fact, in this day and age, when people come to the house, the most they can do is drink a glass of water.
You don’t even have to think about tea.
Unless they are from a cadre family or a wealthy family, no one will buy tea.
In this day and age, for most people, the most luxurious thing is to make a cup of malted milk.
"No need to work too hard, Lao Meng, let me introduce to you. This is Zhou Jimin, a young genius from our steel rolling mill. He invented distribution boxes, transformer modifications, large truck water tanks, etc. He is a young man with strong innovation ability."<
/p>
Lao Liang praised him so fiercely that Zhou Jimin couldn't stop him.
Then he introduced Meng Xiaoxing. There were seven children in the family, and he was the only laborer. It was clear at a glance how hard life was.
After Zhou Jimin and Meng Xiaoxing shook hands and exchanged greetings, Lao Liang looked at the former.
To help or not to help?
Before Zhou Jimin could say anything, a little kid walked out of the room. He was similar to a small goldfish, but very thin, probably more than ten or twenty pounds. He was very pitiful.
Just one glance made Zhou Jimin's heart tremble.
"Wait for me!"
After saying that, Zhou Jimin ran out.
Meng Xiaoxing was dumbfounded and looked at Lao Liang hurriedly, "Did I offend him?"
His daughter Meng Zitong was also frightened. She flattened her mouth and was about to cry.
Lao Liang secretly scolded Zhou Jimin for his poor performance, but he could only comfort Meng Xiaoxing and his daughter.
The other children in the room, because they had no clothes, could only stare, anxious and helpless.
However, Zhou Jimin left and returned not long after.
At the same time, he also carried two big bags.
"Give."
The sack was full of coarse grains, and the most valuable item was a piece of bacon weighing about two kilograms.
The other sack contains clothes. It can be seen that they are old clothes that have been worn, um, with patches.
But these clothes are very good, and you can still smell the faint fragrance of lavender when you open them.
The moment he squatted down, Zhou Jimin handed Meng Zitong a White Rabbit toffee.
The latter stared blankly, her eyes widened, and she swallowed, but still looked at her father.
Meng Xiaoxing was very moved and grateful, but still shook his head and refused.
Although he knew that in order to take care of him, Zhou Ji gave him coarse grains instead of fine grains, but he could not accept it.
Because he doesn't want to cause trouble to the other party.
Lao Liang was very happy, but very angry at Lao Meng's rejection.
Immediately, Lao Liang said thank you to Zhou Jimin, picked up the sack full of clothes and entered the house.
Meng Xiaoxing behind him was so anxious that he stamped his feet, but he had no choice but to thank Zhou Jimin repeatedly.
The latter's move really solved his urgent need and was a real help in times of need.
This winter was extremely cold, but as a father, he made his children naked, endure the biting cold, and hunger.
"Dad, Dad, I have clothes."
A big boy ran out of the house. He was about eleven or twelve years old, but he didn't look as tall as Zhou Jikang, nor as strong as Zhou Jitong.
Meng Xiaoxing wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, called the big boy to Zhou Jimin, and bowed to thank him.
Zhou Jimin repeatedly stopped and supported the other party without letting him actually bow to him.
There were also a few little kids in the back who all put on their clothes and came out.
Zhou Jimin felt a little uncomfortable being surrounded by a group of little kids.
If it weren't for him, Zhou Shuqing's four little ones would probably be similar to the children in front of her.
"Dad, it's so sweet, eat it!"
Meng Zitong licked the white rabbit, and his eyes suddenly lit up.
But she handed the candy to her father.
Lao Meng couldn't resist his daughter's heartwarming gesture and almost cried.
Zhou Jimin retreated quietly and whispered to Lao Liang, "I will talk about Lao Meng's matter at the meeting tomorrow morning and try to get Lao Meng to come over. By the way, do you know if the steel rolling mill can still arrange accommodation?"
From this brief contact, he was able to confirm that Lao Meng's family had good tutoring.
Even though they are so poor, they still abide by the rules, which is hundreds of times better than the neighbors in the courtyard.
Therefore, he really wants to be a neighbor with such a person.
Because it’s very comfortable and reassuring.
"How do I know this?"
Lao Liang spread his hands, but he showed him the way.
Ask Sister Li from the Human Resources Department.
That’s no problem!
After finalizing the matter, Zhou Jimin and Lao Liang also said goodbye.
Lao Meng's family was very grateful and enthusiastic, and wanted to stay with the two of them for dinner.
Of course they didn't stay.
After returning home, Zhou Jimin told Ding Qiunan about the matter, and the latter's eyes suddenly turned red.
Women are kind-hearted and easy to be moved.
He didn't say anything more, but when he saw that the little goldfish was still angry and humming even after eating, he suddenly felt funny.
The little kid is really childish.
Obviously I want to surrender, but I also want to maintain my self-esteem, so I am hesitant and torn.
A few days later, the weather became even colder.
In the ground floor space, the six puppies have grown up a lot.
Thinking of the two old hens and rabbits at home, Zhou Jimin fed the six puppies space spring water.
He didn't dare to feed him more for fear of adverse reactions.
After training a few little guys, Zhou Jimin finally exited the bottom space.
I looked at the gloomy sky and felt that there might be snow today, so I couldn't help but sigh.
Ever since Lao Meng's family came back, images of Lao Meng's children wearing half-cloths have always flashed up when I went to bed these days.
I feel a little heavy.
After traveling to this time and space, he has no lofty ambitions, he just wants his wife and children to be on the bed.
However, when he saw these pictures, he still felt as if someone had grabbed him with his hands and felt uncomfortable!
Nowadays, the country is in dire straits, and there are all kinds of unfortunate families at the feet of the emperor, not to mention other places?
He does not have the ability to save so many people.
But he felt that he could help the people around him wherever he could.
Of course they are those who are worthy of help, forget about white-eyed wolves.
Before it snowed, Zhou Jimin went out on his bicycle.
I won’t go to Pigeon Market today because the food and vegetables haven’t been harvested yet.
Ding Qiunan got up a little late. He didn't see anyone when he arrived. He waited for a few minutes before he saw her hurriedly coming out with a cart.
"Jimin, it's so cold today, why don't I skip breakfast tomorrow and make you wait for a long time."
"It's not okay to skip breakfast. Let's do this. You can stay at home tonight and sleep in the same room as Xiaoqing and the others."
Whoa!
She blushed immediately.
Then, he shook his head and refused.
With this ostrich mentality that is so obvious, who in the entire courtyard doesn’t know that Ding Qiunan is Zhou Jimin’s fiancée?
Everyone in her family knew about it, and when it snowed a few times in winter, Zhou Jimin sent meat there.
In other words, both families and neighbors know about it.
All we need is a certificate.
Looking at her shy and pretty face, Zhou Jimin felt a little hot inside.
Unfortunately, my age does not allow it, and I have not built a wedding room yet, so I can only temporarily suppress the restlessness in my heart.
Back in the courtyard, Ding Qiunan came to the basement, but was struggling with what to eat for breakfast.
There are many ingredients at home, and there are many options to choose from.
The menu was so rich that she began to have difficulty choosing.
Maybe this is the trouble of happiness.
Then she remembered that other people's families couldn't have breakfast, but she should be worrying here.
