According to the doctor's request, Dad Lu walked out twice every once in a while. But his movements were very limited. After walking around the yard for a while, he was quickly sent back to rest.
Lu Cheng helped him lie down on the bed, and Pearl filled a bowl of soup from the small clay pot.
"Dad, this is the stewed duck tonight, you eat some first."
The doctor told me to eat less greasy and more light foods after returning home, and to supplement nutrition appropriately.
Therefore, during the past two days of cooking, Pearl deliberately left aside the oil, reprocessed the broth, and made a separate portion for Dad Lu.
Dad Lu is also very used to it. Since the operation, he has been full of expectations for the future. He just wants to get better quickly and do some work to lighten the burden on the children. Now he is half leaning on the bed and slowly puts the baby on the bed.
The old duck ate all the bowl of winter melon.
The bowl was not much, and it was finished in a short time. However, Father Lu did not hand the bowl out immediately, but asked in a low voice:
"Lili, she..."
…
He had been hospitalized in the imperial capital for so long, and Lili never went there once. Father Lu already knew this, but he really couldn't do it to turn a blind eye to his daughter.
I just feel sorry for my daughter-in-law.
What else can Pearl say?
She hated her resume to death, but when it came to borrowing money, wouldn't it be borrowed in the end? The fact that she lost her uterus and lost the qualification to be a mother was so boring in her heart that it was difficult to vent her anger.
Of course, for Hot Pearl, the scolding on the phone last time did not relieve her anger at all.
She is such a tempered person.
…
But this is a matter for the entire family, and it cannot be cut off in such a simple and crude way. At this moment, I can only forcefully smile and say:
"She is her parents' daughter after all. I will definitely not care about her when she comes back, but don't expect anything else."
"That's enough, that's enough."
Lu Li sighed: "That's great. We won't ask her to have any contact with you in the future."
He thought: "All college students are on vacation, will our mistress be back soon?"
Lu Cheng counted the days: "No, their junior high school vacation started late."
But I can come back once every weekend, so Dad Lu nodded and stopped asking.
My younger brother Lu Hai was accidentally conceived that year.
Although she had obviously been treated, Ma Lu never thought about this possibility, and she found out a little too late.
In addition, her health was not that good at that time, so the child was born with a delay.
Fortunately, the family planning policy in this poor mountain village was not so strict at that time, so people just had children. However, the age difference between the two brothers was a bit big, they were both almost ten or twenty years old.
Lu Cheng was quite accustomed to it.
There is also a family of four or five children in the village. The younger brother is a boy and is solid. He doesn't have to worry so much about going to school. The relationship between the two brothers is still very good.
Pearl also laughed: "I will be very happy when he comes back. This kid who lives in school is probably very hungry."
When Lu Hai was growing, he wanted to eat six meals a day. Pearl also said with a smile: "When he comes back on Friday, I will stew a duck for him."
As she spoke, she thought of Lu Li sitting in the main room again, and couldn't help but curl her lips.
…
People say that one grows up from childhood. She didn't know if it was true, but she could tell a little bit by looking at Lu Li and Lu Hai.
Lu Li has always been uncomfortable with her since she got married. What? If she doesn't like it, she always thinks it's her fault.
And Lu Hai... When they got married, the little boy was still in elementary school. He secretly caught fish in the pond and sold them for a total of 35 yuan to buy a new coat for his brother.
In fact, if you buy it in a smaller size, you can still wear it.
But Lu Cheng was already quite moved.
That coat is still hanging in the closet.
From this point of view, Pearl feels that Lu Hai is 100 times better than his sister.
They were talking in the back room, Lu's mother was in the kitchen again, and Lu Li was sitting alone by the brazier playing with her mobile phone boredly, feeling excluded all the time.
In addition, the signal at home was not good and the webpage could not be opened for a long time, which made her feel irritated out of thin air.
——Everyone in this family is rejecting her, just like everyone in the dormitory is rejecting her.
Sooner or later...
Lu Li thought to herself: She is only a freshman now, and when things are good, she can make thousands of dollars a month, which is already more than many people.
Sooner or later, she will live a better life than any of them, including Ding Wei.
As long as she works hard, she can definitely do it.
…
But even though she was clearly cheering herself up like this, Lu Li couldn't help but feel depressed in her heart.
Although she didn't know Ding Wei's current royalties, she vaguely heard from their chat that Ding Wei had bought a house.
She had also learned about the housing prices in the Imperial City when she was a tutor. It was too expensive, something she could not even imagine now.
Does she really have a chance to surpass Ding Wei?
It was already dark, and the small dining table had been cleared away.
Lu Cheng and Zhenzhu were spreading the food, while Lu Li silently filled the food and sat on the dining table.
Mother Lu didn't know how to face her daughter.
Next to her sat her considerate daughter-in-law, who was indirectly delayed by her daughter...
She didn't dare to think about such a thing, so she could only weakly express her position by turning a blind eye.
Mother Lu is an honest person.
Precisely because you are an honest person, you cannot deceive yourself.
When she borrowed money from her daughter, she was absolutely certain that Lu Li had money, at least 3,000 yuan.
But in the end, even the 500 yuan came belatedly after she knelt down and kowtowed countless times.
She didn't take the initiative to speak. Lu Cheng's lips moved, but in the end he didn't meet Lu Li's eyes.
But Pearl remembered Lu Cheng's plan and asked softly:
"After the house is handed over, does it still need to be renovated?"
It is impossible to keep this matter secret for a lifetime. Pearl is an upright person by nature, and she has no intention of keeping it secret.
Besides, she also has some thoughts——
She just wants to see Lu Li unhappy now. When Lu Li is unhappy, she will be happy.
Now, when Lu Li finds out that her eldest brother now has a house in the imperial capital, let’s see if she, a girl, is jealous!
Regret or not!
Lu Cheng didn't pay attention, but seriously considered this issue:
"When the time comes, I'll close the windows and go through the water and electricity pipes. I'll make a bed when I have time, buy a gas stove, pots and pans, etc. It'll be enough to get by."
He sighed: "Renovating a house in the imperial capital is very expensive, and buying materials costs a lot of money."
Pearl also laughed at him: "Didn't you work with your cousin for many years?"
Lu Cheng was a little ashamed: "I am helping my cousin. I do everything and am not proficient in anything. We must pay more attention to our own house!"
At that time, his father was still ill, and it was impossible for him to stay out for a long time. So he worked as a handyman, doing everything and helping with everything, but he didn't learn anything well.
