Return to 1981 and start from breaking off the engagement

Chapter 156
"What are you talking about, kid!" Grandma scolded with a smile and patted Yao Weijun's arm, "Don't pretend to be like me. Xiunan is pregnant now. I'm warning you, don't make her angry. Otherwise, if you let me know, you'll be fine." I can’t spare you!”

"Yes, you made Xiunan suffer, and I'm not done with you either!"

Mother Zhu Mei also said with a straight face, but the next moment she covered her mouth and laughed.

"Okay, okay, Lao Wu just came back by car. Let him rest for a while. I'm going to the agency. I'll cook two more dishes tonight and the whole family will have a good meal!"

His father, Yao Xiangui, waved his hand to interrupt. After speaking to his mother, he put on his coat and went out.

After Yao Weijun put all the items he bought from Jinggang on the table, he left the main room where his grandma lived and returned to his own room with his canvas bag.

The stove in the hallway outside the house had been lit two months ago. When I walked into the house, there was a warm air, just like grandma's place, warm and comfortable.

Yao Weijun took off his cotton coat and "General's coat", and lay down on the bed wearing a fleece coat. He suddenly felt extremely comfortable, and his body and mind were completely relaxed.

He rested in the house for a while, then put on his coat and went out. He first went to the south courtyard to greet his sister-in-law, checked on the canned goods and roasted seeds and nuts, and then went around the greenhouse outside.

Seeing that it was almost time for school to end in the afternoon, he pushed out his motorcycle and set fire to it, then went out.

I rode Yu Xiunan's bicycle back from school in the afternoon, and now I need to pick her up and take her home from get off work.

Because he had plenty of time, Yao Weijun made a special trip to the cooperative after arriving at Daliu Commune, bought a lot of food and drinks, and tied them in the back seat of the car. When he arrived at Xiangyang Elementary School, he happened to hear the school bell ringing.

"Uncle Five!"

Xiao Hua and Li Wen Liwu were the first to follow the students and ran out of the school gate. The three little guys were all dressed like little penguins and wrapped up tightly. When they saw Yao Weijun, they rushed over excitedly.

"Are you all freezing? Come on, get warm in Grandpa Mai's car. When you get home later, I'll give you gifts!"

Yao Weijun squeezed their little hands and found that they were all warm, but their little faces were cold, so he urged them with a gentle smile.

Now it is the coldest time of the year. The oxcart used by Lao Maitou to transport children to and from school is tied to the carport and sealed with a circle of canvas. From a distance, it looks like a small car with a carport.

Children in Jianchang Village squeeze into cars to go to and from school every day. Because there is a canvas to block the wind, the inside of the car is much warmer than outside.

"Uncle Wu, I was still dreaming last night. The first dream was that you would come back today and bring me a lot of food. Then I dreamed about my father and my mother, who also came back to see me. , and bought me new clothes!”

The youngest Liwu raised his little face in excitement, sniffed his nose and said loudly.

"Haha... That's okay, Liwu. You're really dreaming. Your father and your mother did buy you new clothes, but because they were quite busy at work, they asked me to bring them back. Hurry to the car. Sit on it and I’ll give it to you when I get home!”

Yao Weijun couldn't bear to let him down, so he smiled and followed the words.

"Well! Thank you, Uncle Wu!"

Liwu became even more excited when he heard this, and jumped up and took Xiaohua's hand to the old Maitou oxcart.

"Uncle Wu, you are lying. My father and mother will not buy us new clothes. They only care about making money now and don't want us at all..."

Li Wen did not leave, but lowered his head and muttered in great disappointment.

"Liwen, you are wrong to think so. Your father and mother are working hard to earn money outside in such a cold weather just so that you and Liwu can live a good life in the future. How could they not want you?"

Yao Weijun knelt down, patted Li Wen on the shoulder, and encouraged: "You usually like to read little picture books. The protagonists in them have been very strong since they were young. You should learn from them and be a strong little man.

Uncle Wu didn't lie to you. All your new clothes are on my motorcycle, but you can't look at them now. I'll show them to you when you get home.

Be obedient and get warm in the car. Otherwise, if you catch a cold, your studies will be delayed and your parents will be worried. "

"Yes!" Li Wen nodded firmly, and just as he was about to turn around, he said to Yao Weijun: "Fifth Uncle, I think you are the most capable person in our family, and you are very kind to me, Li Wu, and Xiao Hua. I will wait for you later. When I grow up, I will definitely be filial to you!"

"I asked you to tell me this. Your parents treat you better, and you should be filial to them in the future, you know?" Yao Weijun smiled gently, and after speaking patiently, he asked Li Wen to take the bus to Lao Maitou.

Not long after, the students at the school gate had gradually left. Yao Weijun greeted Lao Maitou and told the latter to slow down on the road, and then walked closer to the school gate.

At this time, with a reunion smile on his face, he looked at Yu Xiunan, who was walking happily towards him.

"Guard, have you been waiting outside for a long time? Is it cold?"

Yu Xiunan walked closer and stretched out her hand to tighten Yao Weijun's collar, with a look of distress on her face.

"I'm not cold, but you shouldn't wear more clothes. Now, put on this cotton coat. It will be very cold sitting on the motorcycle later."

Yao Weijun put the cotton coat he had prepared on Yu Xiunan's body, buttoned it up, and walked to the motorcycle holding hands.

"Xiu Nan, come with me to the cooperative and buy a new set of clothes for each of Xiaohua and the other three."

After Yao Weijun waited for Yu Xiunan to sit down, he started his motorcycle and briefly talked about meeting Li Wen at the school gate just now.

At that time, in order to appease Li Wen, he pretended that his second brother and his second sister-in-law had bought new clothes for him and his two brothers. In fact, they didn't have any, so they had to buy them now, otherwise they would lose track of what they said.

Yu Xiunan agreed very much with Yao Weijun's approach, and the two of them went to the cooperative despite the biting cold wind.

"Weijun, the Chinese New Year is coming soon. I think it's better to buy a set of clothes for my two nephews. The third sister and her family came to visit my parents a few days ago. Please take the time to send it to An Hongan. Third sister is sure Happy."

At the entrance of the cooperative, Yu Xiunan got off the motorcycle, stomped her feet that were numb from the cold, and suggested while breathing in the heat.

"Okay, you really can't favor one over the other. Then buy six sets, a new set of clothes for each of the children!"

After being reminded, Yao Weijun immediately smiled and nodded.

"Six sets? That's not..." Yu Xiunan was slightly startled. Xiaohua and the three of them, plus An Hong and An Gang, should have five sets. She didn't realize it for a moment.

"Why, as an uncle, shouldn't I buy a set of clothes for my eldest nephew?"

Yao Weijun saw her doubts and asked with a relaxed smile.

He was referring to Yu Xiunan's maternal nephew. Since he said that he could not favor one over the other, he did not leave out Yu Xiufeng's children.

"I listen to you!"

Yu Xiunan reacted after hearing this, and her pretty face, which was flushed from the cold, suddenly showed a touch of tender joy. She hugged Yao Weijun's arm and shook it a few times, speaking in a cheerful tone.

While the two were talking, they had already walked into the cooperative. It took them more than half an hour to select six sets of children's clothes of different styles. After paying the money and checking in, they left the cooperative.

The temperature was even lower at night in late winter. Yu Xiunan sat on the motorcycle, leaning closely against Yao Weijun who was driving in front, and returned to Jiachang Village together.

"Lao Wu, why are you coming back so late? If you come back a little later, your dad will already be riding his bicycle to pick you up!"

As soon as he entered the house, his mother, Zhu Mei, greeted her with a smile on her face.Hearing the commotion in the yard, Xiaohua, Liwen and Liwu rushed out quickly. Under the bright moonlight, they could see the deep anticipation and surprise on their faces.

"Oh, it's such a cold day. Why are you running out so late at night? Go back to the house quickly!"

Upon seeing this, her mother Zhu Mei raised her hands to drive them away, and scolded the little ones distressedly.

"Xiu Nan, don't take the things. Come on, I'll take you into the house and sit down to warm yourself up. Just let Lao Wu carry it in."

Seeing that the three little flowers were jumping around and didn't listen to her, she didn't care anymore. She took Yu Xiunan's hand and walked into the house, for fear that her daughter-in-law would get cold after staying in the yard for a long time.

"Mom, I'm fine. You should wear more clothes yourself. Don't be reluctant to wear the cotton-padded clothes I bought you a few days ago. I'll buy you new ones during the Chinese New Year."

Yu Xiunan took her mother-in-law's arm and reminded her with a smile.

"Don't buy any more. Just enough clothes to wear. There's no need to spend so much money, haha..." Mother Zhu Mei smiled from ear to ear, and she and Yu Xiunan took the lead in entering the house.

"Okay, Liwen! Listen to grandma and take your sister and brother into the house quickly. New clothes are here!"

Yao Weijun, carrying a lot of items in his hands, entered the house with Li Wen and the other three.

Amid the cheers of the three children, he distributed new clothes to them, took out the snacks and toys he bought from Tianjin Port, and handed them to each of them.

"Uncle Wu, you are so kind!"

"Thank you Uncle Fifth!"

"Uncle Fifth..."

Xiaohua, Liwen, and Liwu all shouted excitedly, excited about the new clothes, snacks and toys they got in their hands, and the noises kept coming and going.

"Okay, okay, put your clothes away first, wash your hands and eat quickly!"

Father Yao Xiangui frowned and drank lightly, but his face also had a look of joy, mixed with a hint of emotion.

Everything in front of me seemed like a dream. Even just a few months ago, it was impossible to dream of the current scene.

The fifth child, who used to be idle, not only changed a lot, started a business, lived in a large tiled house with bright windows and clean windows, but now also managed the relationship between the entire extended family so well, which made the old couple truly experience the meaning of Hanyi Nong. Sun, Cheng Huan lives a happy life.

"Lao Wu, I'm so happy today, I'll drink two cups tonight!" Yao Xiangui was filled with emotion. He didn't know how to express his feelings for a moment, so after saying this to Yao Weijun, he went to warm the wine excitedly.

"Dad, it's so lively tonight, don't drink this wine, drink Maotai!"

Yao Weijun waved to his father, went to his grandma's house, and came out with a bottle of Maotai.

"Okay! This time I listen to you and drink Maotai!" Yao Xiangui became very interested and took the bottle from Yao Weijun's hand with a smile.

Grandma was sitting on the front seat and glanced sideways at Yao Xiangui when she heard this. "What do you mean by listening to Junzi this time? Let me tell you, from now on, you should not get involved in all the big and small matters in the family. Leave it all to Junzi." , that’s right!”

"Yes, yes, I will definitely no longer belong to this family in the future. You can take care of it, Junzi, haha..."

Yao Xiangui burst out laughing. In his opinion, this was a matter of course and he didn't think there was anything wrong with it at all.

Originally, Yu Xiunan called the old couple to live here together, hoping that they would live in another bedroom, but Yao Xiangui insisted on going to the side room, which also had heating pipes, and it was not cold at all when sleeping at night.

In fact, from that time on, Yao Xiangui had already thought about it and had no idea of ​​managing the family. In his opinion, Lao Wu's ability had already far exceeded his. From now on, no matter what happened at home, he would just listen and have fun. peace of mind.

Now that Yao Weijun has returned from his trip, the whole family is in a good mood. The hall is filled with a joyful atmosphere, and they are talking and laughing as they eat dinner.

After dinner, they sat and drank tea and chatted for a while, and then they went back to their rooms to rest.

"Weijun, Brother You gave me the money when he came to purchase the goods the day before yesterday. You order it."

In the bedroom, Yu Xiunan took out a small embroidered baggage from the cabinet, opened it and put the money in front of Yao Weijun.

"Just click it and put it there first."

Yao Weijun leaned against the bedside and looked at Yu Xiunan's pretty face with a strange smile.

"Well, don't forget to save it tomorrow. I'll put it back in the cabinet..."

After Yu Xiunan finished speaking, she realized the strange look in Yao Weijun's eyes. She couldn't help but blush, and said angrily: "I just came back and thought about that. Are you tired?"

Yao Weijun smiled without saying a word, reached out and grabbed her wrist, gently pulled her into his arms...

"Slow down... Ouch!"

"..."

……

Silent all night.

When You Damin arrived the next morning, Yao Weijun had just gotten up.

"Brother Yao, you're back. Good guy, did you find any way to make money when you went out this time? Tell me about it!"

As soon as the two met, You Damin smiled and sighed.

"Brother Yu, sit in the room!"

Yao Weijun enthusiastically led him into the main room and sat down.

"Brother, I didn't say much to my siblings when you weren't here last time to purchase goods. This time it's different. Now that I see you, it's time to talk about our current cooperation again!"

You Damin said seriously after sitting down.

Yao Weijun heard that something was wrong in his tone, took a closer look, and couldn't help but smile and said: "Brother You, don't be too tight-lipped, are you going to increase your purchase volume as the Chinese New Year is approaching? If so, tell me quickly, I still have to adjust my daily processing tasks!"

"Haha... As expected, I can't hide anything from you, Brother Yao. Come on, then I won't pretend anymore and I'll show my cards!"

You Damin threw a cigarette to Yao Weijun, spread his hands and said excitedly: "The Chinese New Year is coming soon. With my current purchase volume, the melon seeds, peanuts and cans are not enough to sell. If you are like this, I will make another shipment tomorrow, and then A year ago, we still came every three days, but the volume of goods needs to increase, so please prepare it for me at about 3 yuan worth of goods!"

"I'll try my best to arrange it." Yao Weijun pondered slightly and reminded with a smile: "But Brother You, you have to tell me the specific quantities of peanuts, melon seeds and canned food, so that I can rush to process them for you."
