Reborn 1980's Petite Wife

Chapter 7 The Kid Next Door

Xu Jiaren pestered grandma for a long time asking when "father" would come, but grandma would change the topic and avoid answering.

In desperation, Xu Jiaren had no choice but to temporarily give up asking.

Mom will have one day off every week, so let's ask about it when she comes to grandma's place.

"Xu Jiaren, I heard that you were kicked out of the kindergarten, right?"

Xu Jiaren was sitting at the door of her house and was thinking about it, when the voice of a child interrupted her thoughts.

The opposite door didn't know when it opened.

A dark-skinned little boy wearing a red scarf was standing at the door looking at her.

"Are you strong?" Xu Jiaren asked.

The little boy was not happy when he heard it.

He walked up to Xu Jiaren, flicked "Bengdou" on her forehead with his finger, and said angrily, "Didn't I tell you? You want to call Brother Qiangqiang, why did you forget?"

Xu Jiaren always remembers "Brother Strong".

In the memory of this dark and narrow tube building, the "strong brother" opposite the door is her only little friend.

The two of them often spread calendar paper on the dirty floor at the door, and then lie on it to play house.

At that time, Qiangqiang's mother always joked that she would be her daughter-in-law in the future.

Although his appearance is blurred in memory, the happy time of playing together as a child is still deeply in my mind.

But now let her 35-year-old aunt call this kid "brother?"

What a joke!
"How can a brother bully a sister? You still play me Bengdou, I don't want to call you!"

Xu Jiaren protested, covering her forehead.

"Where did I bully you? I didn't breathe just now!"

When playing Bengdou, if you breathe on your hand, it will hurt a little.

Thinking about it carefully, the little guy really didn't exhale just now.

Xu Jiaren pouted, "Why are you breathing out, I'm in pain anyway!"

Qiangqiang was very depressed, couldn't help frowning and said: "Why are you unreasonable?"

Boy, I am teaching you the most important lesson in life - don't reason with women.

Xu Jiaren stood up and walked in front of Qiangqiang.

Damn it, she is actually a head shorter than others!

In terms of momentum, he was crushed by this kid.

"Here, if you give me something delicious, I'll forgive you, how about it?" Xu Jiaren stepped forward and said seriously.

"delicious?"

Qiangqiang rolled his eyes, pointed at the little one in front of him, and suddenly realized: "So you are hungry?"

Xu Jiaren was suddenly embarrassed, and thought: This kid is not easy to fool.

Just as he was thinking about how to find a way to get down, he reached out and rubbed Xu Jiaren's forehead, and said with a smile, "My mother made beef jerky, I'll get it for you."

After finishing speaking, he turned and entered the opposite door.

Xu Jiaren touched her forehead, thinking that this "Bengdou" was not in vain.

After eating Zamian buns and Zamian noodles for two days, she felt a strange taste in her mouth.

Now she desperately needs a change!
After waiting at the door for a long time, Qiangqiang "gone forever", and there seemed to be a faint sound of arguing inside the door.

Could it be that Qiangqiang wants to take out the food and be scolded?
Xu Jiaren tiptoed over.

"I said last month that I would send it to be made into a skirt, but your sister had a baby, and it cost me ten yuan! Now it's all right, I want to wear a skirt that I don't have! The foreign guests will come the day after tomorrow, so I will send it to a tailor now It's too late!"

"We in Qingbei City can't wear skirts a few times throughout the year. How did I know that your hospital will have foreign guests?"

"How do you know? Okay, it doesn't matter if you don't know, just say what to do now?!"

"How about going to Yang Hong to borrow one?"

"Lu Weiming! Are you crazy? She and I are the ones elected by the hospital to receive foreign guests this time! If I hadn't voted for me more, she would have gone! Do you think she would borrow it?!"

"I'm just saying—"

"I think you just like him! Woooooooo—"

Xu Jiaren breathed a sigh of relief when she heard that it was none of her business.

He was about to "snap away" quietly, but Qiang Qiang saw her with sharp eyes.

"Xu Jiaren! What are you doing?"

With Qiangqiang's shout, the crying in the room stopped abruptly.

Soon, the door was opened from the inside, and Xu Jiaren was caught.

Qiangqiang's mother opened the door and saw the little girl opposite, she wiped her eyes, "Isn't this a bitch? Come, come in and play."

Xu Jiaren is not a person with no eyesight. The couple is having conflicts. What is she going in to play?

Just about to refuse, Qiangqiang ran out and took her hand and went in, saying as he walked, "Mom, take out the beef jerky for Xu Jiaren to eat."

"You kid..."

Gan Li was a little helpless, she turned around and went to the cabinet to take out the beef jerky.

The beef was bought two catties last month when her husband, Lu Weiming, asked someone to leave and issued a meat ticket.

Neither she nor her husband was willing to eat it, and she was afraid that the meat would spoil, so she made dried meat and planned to save it for her son to eat slowly.

My son is fine, take it out for others to eat.

Gan Li couldn't say this in front of the children, so she grabbed a few beef cubes from a small plate.

"Eat quickly, there will be more after eating."

Qiangqiang handed the small dish directly to Xu Jiaren.

"You child..." Gan Li was completely helpless.

Xu Jiaren glanced at the four meatballs on the small plate, and took one and put it in her mouth without being polite.

She could see that Qiangqiang's mother was reluctant to part with it, but she couldn't blame others for it. Beef is also a precious thing now.

Don't underestimate the four pieces of meat on the plate, some people may not be able to eat them for a year.

For example, she and grandma are in this situation.

"Girl, where's your grandma?" Gan Li asked.

Xu Jiaren said obediently: "Grandma went downstairs to buy vegetables, I'll be back later."

"That's all right, you and Brother Qiangqiang are playing at our house. Auntie is cooking too." While talking, Gan Li picked up the piece of fabric on the bed and gave her husband a wink.

Lu Weiming, who was sitting by the window, sighed and followed out.

Come to think of it, Qiangqiang's mother didn't cook, but continued to discuss the issue of "skirts".

Xu Jiaren stuffed another beef cube into her mouth and looked around the room.

This room is the same as the one she and grandma lived in, but it looks much cleaner and tidy than grandma's.

The size of the room is limited, but it has everything it should have, a large wardrobe with a mirror, a foldable square table, and a large double bed.

Coupled with a few pots of green plants on the window sill, this room has a little more vitality and vitality.

A room of the same size can give people completely different feelings.

"Qiangqiang, what do your parents do?" Xu Jiaren asked while sitting at the square table.

The square table is open, with books and homework spread out on it.

"You don't even know what my parents do."

Qiangqiang walked to the square table, pulled over a folding chair, and said, "I'll tell you when you go to school and learn how to read."

Seeing the serious look of this kid, Xu Jiaren secretly rolled her eyes.

It seems to be true, he must not know it himself.

Still waiting for her to read?
She has been literate for thirty years, okay?
Xu Jiaren reached for the textbook on the table, looked at the name written on the cover, and thought: So the name of "Brother Qiangqiang" in her memory is Lu Qiang.
