It wasn't until evening, when Du Fei returned to the courtyard after get off work, that he saw Qin Jingru again.
At this time, Qin Jingru had changed out of her daytime outfit and was wearing the light blue floral cotton-padded jacket that she usually liked to wear.
She has two braids and a white and rosy face, and she is excitedly telling a group of people in the yard about her legendary experiences during the day.
Among them were not only old women, but also many men who were idle in the courtyard, who were also stunned by what they heard.
Du Fei was pushing his bicycle and just arrived under the hanging flower door when he happened to see this scene.
Although Qin Jingru still looked the same silly and pretty girl as before, Du Fei felt inexplicably that some invisible changes seemed to have taken place in her.
But when I think about it again, it seems natural.
After this time, Qin Jingru has seen the world.
Today, she met Sister Wang, Director Zhang, and several other aunts from the District Women's Federation, who were higher than their county magistrates.
If I mentioned this back to the village, the secretary of the production team would be very interested.
At this time, Qin Jingru also saw Du Fei and immediately shouted excitedly, "Brother Du Fei!"
Du Fei smiled and nodded at her.
Qin Jingru changed her previous shyness and said loudly, "Brother Du Fei, thank you. If you hadn't introduced Aunt Zheng, I wouldn't have been able to find the entrance to the Women's Federation today."
When everyone heard this, they immediately realized that there was something about Du Fei that had been causing trouble for a long time.
This was something Du Fei had agreed with Qin Jingru in advance, claiming that Du Fei had helped a little bit.
Although the three uncles in the courtyard knew some inside information and Du Fei took over the matter, the three uncles were shrewd and would never let it out casually.
First of all, Du Fei didn't publicize it in a big way, because he clearly didn't want to be in the limelight.
Secondly, once this is done, Du Fei's abilities and methods will be shown, which will be even worse for the status of the three uncles in the courtyard.
Since Du Fei was not happy to show his face, they were even more happy to see the results.
On the contrary, it was Qin Jingru's state that surprised Du Fei even more.
If looking at her from a distance just now, she felt something was different about Qin Jingru, then it became even more obvious now.
No matter the tone and demeanor of speaking, or the look in Du Fei's eyes, they all showed a different charm from the past.
Moreover, his speaking voice was crisp and bright, and he seemed full of vitality.
Du Fei looked at it, feeling a little confused. He didn't know what kind of poisonous chicken soup those aunts and uncles from the Women's Federation had given to this girl Qin Jingru, which caused her mental outlook to change so drastically.
After passing through the middle courtyard, Du Fei returned home.
Not long after, Qin Huairu came and asked him to stop cooking and come over to eat together tonight.
He also said that the deaf old lady and the old man and his mother would also go.
Du Fei thought for a moment, then shook his head, made an excuse, and declined politely.
The sage said that only villains and women are difficult to raise. Those who are close will not be inferior, and those who are far away will be resentful.
Du Fei knew the temperaments of Qin Huairu and Jia Zhangshi.
At this time, you have to be careful and don't let them feel that you are too close to them.
Qin Huairu tried to persuade Du Fei, but he couldn't persuade him, so he had to go back angrily.
The Jia family in the middle courtyard.
Jia Zhang was making noodles, while Qin Jingru was cutting cabbage stuffing.
In the afternoon, Qin Huairu received the letter and came back to buy a small piece of meat and prepare to make some dumplings. The deaf old lady was also there. She looked at Qin Huairu with a smile and said, "What am I talking about? That kid will definitely not come."
Qin Jingru's face was filled with disappointment.
Qin Huairu snorted angrily, "I'm used to his bad temper! If you don't come here, let's eat it and we'll starve him to death."
Because Du Fei was not present, Qin Huairu spoke very harshly.
And the grandpa's house is across from the middle courtyard.
Xiaojun was lying on the window watching, and suddenly shouted, "Mom, you're back!"
The aunt immediately came over, leaned against the window and looked outside, and happened to see Qin Huairu coming back from the backyard and entering Jia's house.
Yi Zhonghai sat behind without moving his buttocks and asked, "Is Xiao Du here?"
"Not here~" the eldest mother responded, "Old man, I really made you guess!"
"I knew it!" Yi Zhonghai smiled, and the old man said, "Come on, let's not wait anymore, let's cook and eat by ourselves."
The eldest mother asked, "Qin Huairu didn't say anything just now, why don't you go to Nan's house to eat dumplings tonight?"
Yi Zhonghai coughed and said, "Hey~ We can't help this time! Come and call us, mainly because you want me to be your companion, otherwise Du Fei is a man, and he can't go. Now.
Du Fei isn't going, so what are we going to do if we get together? There's no shortage of those who stutter."
The aunt nodded, started working on dinner, and then said, "You said~ Qin Huairu is different when he is transferred to the office. He is not as fussy about things as before, and he will use nice words to bully people.
."
The uncle said disapprovingly, "This has nothing to do with her not being able to go to the office."
The eldest mother said, "Then you tell me, if it's not because of this, why?"
Yi Zhonghai lit another cigarette, "Qin Huairu's salary is modest, which is barely enough for their family's expenses. It's so tight that they can't free up their hands. Even if they moved offices, they didn't get a salary increase..."
While picking vegetables, the aunt continued, "That's right~ You said the salary hasn't been increased yet, it's still the same money, why did she..."
At this point, the eldest mother suddenly reacted and blurted out, "Xiao Du gave it to me?"
The uncle said matter-of-factly, "What else do you think? Didn't you see that Qin Huairu has also ridden a bicycle in the past few days, and also bought scented ice cream. In the past, she had never been willing to give it up. She felt that her face was dry in winter, so she went to the infirmary to get some prescription.
Selu just wiped it on."
The aunt agreed, "That's true. Yesterday, I saw her wearing a new pair of leather clothes under her sweater. Her hands were slippery to the touch. They were not like calluses in the past."
Yi Zhonghai sighed, "She is like a dead tree that has blossomed."
The aunt glared at him and said, "Hey, old man, what else do you have in mind?"
Yi Zhonghai didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He touched his nose and said, "Hey, why did you pull this on me? I provoked someone."
The eldest mother said casually, not really worried about the relationship between the eldest uncle and Qin Huairu, and then said, "To be honest, Qin Huairu's life is really full of twists and turns. A country girl married into the city and thought she was blessed. Who knows?
Chengxiang, after just a few years, he died and became a widow, and he still had to serve Jia and Zhang..."
The old man gulped and spit, he had a strong desire to survive and did not dare to continue.
The eldest mother continued, "I didn't expect that after years of hard work, I would fall in love with Du Fei again! Human life... there is really no place to look at!"
Yi Zhonghai sighed casually, "How many years can it take? She is in her thirties this year? Xiao Du is not married now, otherwise..."
"Alas~" The eldest mother had a good heart and sighed, "As long as I can get through these few years as a widow, what else do I want to do?" She picked up the picked vegetables and went into the kitchen. In the evening, Du Fei returned to the courtyard after get off work and saw Qin Jingru again.
At this time, Qin Jingru had changed out of her daytime outfit and was wearing the light blue floral cotton-padded jacket that she usually liked to wear.
