Chapter 53 Liu Dalin’s thoughts

"Thank you uncle, the master in the factory is very kind to me." Liu Hai also sat down and said.

Liu Hai has complicated feelings towards Liu Dalin, but he will never tell the truth, even Wang Hongmei Liu Hai can only tell part of the truth.

"Is it dirty work?" Liu Dalin felt a little disappointed when he heard this, so he asked.

"Uncle, I'm a regular worker now. I don't work very hard. I go to work every day, without sun or rain."

"Do old workers bully newcomers?"

"No, my master is very good to me."

"Are you coming back this time?"

"I just want to come back and see how Hongmei is doing."

"It's okay, it's okay." The two chatted dryly, and then Liu Dalin left.

Looking at Liu Dalin's hunched back, who looks older than 2020 years old in 70, Liu Hai also sighed in his heart, there is no way, the times are like this.

"Could it be that I have a problem?" Liu Hai murmured in his heart. After all, the number of times with Wang Hongmei is not small. If Wang Hongmei is not pregnant, I don't know if it is his problem or someone else's problem.

For future generations, bangs are not as important as this era. As a person of the new era, bangs has a casual attitude towards future generations. When we come to this era, that feeling is even stronger. Compared with those young people who bury their bones in the mountains. , I am already pretty good.

Whenever someone feels that they have lived a hard life, they can go to those cemeteries. Some of them can still see black and white photos, while others only have cold words. If you look at their age, you will feel that you can let go of everything.

Liu Hai doesn't have any close people. In the afternoon, Liu Hai continues to clean up the bushes around the house. If they don't clean up, these bushes will grow up quickly.

After Liu Dalin went back, Liu Dalin's wife asked, "How is it?"

"What else can I do? Xiaohai is now a regular worker. He earns 24 yuan a month, so he is not afraid of the wind and the sun." Liu Dalin said while sullen.

When Liu Dalin's wife heard this, she said, "It's actually good, as long as he goes back to the village, it will be better if Hongmei is pregnant. You said that if you are pregnant, Liu Hai is still at home, and that's a bad thing." Well, by then, Hongmei may have second thoughts."

When Liu Dalin heard this, it made sense. If Liu Hai was at home, maybe Hongmei would go to Liu Hai when she had a child. Now that Liu Hai is in the city, Hongmei would not go to the city when she has a child.

"Well, you give Hongmei a few eggs."

"There are no eggs in the house, and the hens are all brooding."

"Go and borrow a few."

When Wang Hongmei heard that Liu Hai was back, she felt very complicated. She didn't know how she felt because she was not very educated. She thought about Liu Hai's kindness, but Liu Dalin and his wife were also very kind to her.

In the evening, the captain came again, seeing how long Liu Hai had been in the city, he changed.

"Xiao Hai, how do you feel in the city?" The captain also sipped on the dry tobacco and asked.

"Uncle, it's okay. Just go to get off work on time every day."

"How's the food?"

"Cabbage, steamed buns."

"How often do you eat meat?"

"It's hard to say."

"Do you need money for food?"

"Yes, we will give you food stamps and meal stamps when you eat. If you don't have enough, you have to spend money."

"Does it cost money to drink water?"

"I also need tap water."

"Oh, how is the second baby in the village?"

"We separated when we arrived in the city. We were in different factories. I don't know which factory we were in."

"Do it well." The captain encouraged Liu Hai before leaving.

"Ah."

Liu Hai didn't have a good impression of the captain. At this time, the villagers were basically illiterate, so the village cadres' style of work was very rough.

Liu Hai didn’t have a good impression because of the last time he was sent to the factory. There weren’t many opportunities to get along with him in the future. We just said hello to each other when we met.

In the evening Wang Hongmei came with ten eggs, and she was a little embarrassed when they first met, so Liu Hai pulled Wang Hongmei to sit down.

Wang Hongmei looked at Liu Hai under the oil lamp, and found that Liu Hai's skin was much paler and her face was ruddy, so she mustered up her courage and asked, "Are you okay?"

"I'm fine, how about you?" Liu Hai asked, looking at Wang Hongmei's blue dress and her bulging chest.

"Go to work, work." Wang Hongmei looked at Liu Hai's work clothes, feeling very complicated and not knowing how to express her thoughts.

"This is the fire sugar cake I bought, eat one, and take the rest home and eat slowly." Liu Hai took out the fire sugar cake, handed one to Wang Hongmei, and said.

Wang Hongmei was not polite either. In Wang Hongmei's heart, Liu Hai regarded her as her man.

"You eat half of it." The sugar cake was wrapped in straw paper. Wang Hongmei tore half of it open and handed it to Liu Hai.

"I won't eat it, you can eat it." Liu Hai shook his head. Being a farmer is hard work. Wang Hongmei's hands were a little rough.

The sesame seeds on the sugar cake were so fragrant and the inside was so sweet, Wang Hongmei went to the back room after eating, and went to the kang by herself.

Liu Hai is not hypocritical, blowing out the oil lamp, just like a husband and wife....

The night temperature in the north in May can be said to be a bit cold. After a bout, Liu Hai also felt the sweetness in his mouth, which was the taste of Wang Hongmei eating sugar cakes.

Wang Hongmei has a good figure, and her legs are strong, strong and elastic.

Holding Wang Hongmei in her arms, Bangs felt very comfortable. Wang Hongmei was breathing evenly. She didn't care about Bangs' hands, let alone her hands. She just opened her mouth and was chewing randomly. She asked, "How many days will it take to come back this time?"

"Three days, but the next time is estimated to have to wait a few months. This time I will go back to participate in militia training." Liu Hai whispered.

Upon hearing this, Wang Hongmei continued to ask, "Is it hard work in the factory?"

"It's okay. I bought you cloth, some candy, and a headscarf."

"What kind of hood...."

Liu Hai had no choice but to light the oil lamp and take out the cloth and the blue and white headscarf. Due to the strong wind and sand in the north, women in many places have the custom of wearing headscarves. The main reason is that women have a lot of hair and it is difficult to wash it.

Wang Hongmei looked at the new headscarf Liu Hai bought for herself in the small round mirror, and felt very happy.

The bangs made my mouth go dry when I looked at them. The light, the woman, the light of the oil lamp was warm.

"Don't look, let's work first."

Wang Hongmei quickly said: "Put down the headscarf and then talk..."

"that's all……."

"Turn on the lights... woo woo woo."

The next morning, Wang Hongmei left with her tired body, took away the headscarf, took away part of the candy, and put the remaining part on her bangs. Later, Wang Hongmei would pick it up herself, and the cloth was also taken away.

After going down several times, Liu Hai felt that it was okay. If Wang Hongmei hadn't wanted to leave, he would have come back two more times after resting.

When Wang Hongmei returned home, Liu Dalin's wife got up. Looking at the things in Wang Hongmei's hand, she felt a little worried and said, "Hongmei, go to bed first. Don't go to work today."
