In the Years When I Was a Father

As the year approached, the year before and after this year experienced too much. Qi Sheng planned to take advantage of the New Year and bring his family to make a big purchase every year.

The old man heard his plan, looked at the weather outside, and said, "Go with Xiaoyue and two children, our old bone, can't stand the temperature outside."

Although the old lady wanted to go shopping, she was also afraid that her body could not bear it, so she refused.

So the Qisheng family put on a thick down jacket, stepped on snow boots, and got on a heated car, and comfortably headed to the city's Green Water Park Trading Center.

Because Qi Hang was still young, Qi Sheng did not take him out in recent months, but Qi Lei followed him out twice. The child had been arguing with Qi Sheng for this matter for a long time. At this moment, he was finally able to go out and let it go, let alone much excitement.

Along the way, he looked like a bird that was released from the cage. He looked left and right, and could all admire howling fields.

Tian Yue had a headache because of her stupid son, but she was also in a good mood today, and it was rare to stop Qi Hang.

During this time, because of the agricultural products trade and transportation, the government paid special attention to several arterial roads in and out of the city, so Qisheng did not worry about any more criminals coming and going.

They arrived at the Green Water Park at more than ten o'clock, which is more lively than the scene a year ago.

In order to survive, daily necessities consume a lot of money. In order to survive, the only factories that remain are working overtime and overtime during this period of time, but let the life cycle of the entire city flow again.

Daily necessities and vegetables are the most. As for meat and fruits, they are now scarce. Qi Sheng strolled around and found that there were only a few selling live chickens. Large livestock such as beef, lamb and pork have now become luxury goods.

Qi Sheng: "I plan to buy two chickens, and we add two dishes for New Year's Eve."

Tian Yue looked at the prices of the sellers who sold chickens. A chicken needs about 15 pounds of rice or 30 pounds of potatoes, so he felt a little bit distressed: "Is buying chicken a waste, and our eggs are now also A lot. "

"Can eggs be the same as chickens? Or buy two? Our family still has this condition."

Qi Hang hasn't eaten meat for a long time now. When he heard of buying chicken and vegetables, his mouth immediately drooled.

"Mom, just listen to Dad. Our chicken and grandma are not willing to kill. I'm about to die!"

Tian Yue actually really wanted to eat. At this moment, the whole family's gluttonous insects hooked up, and it seemed that they would be guilty of not buying it. She didn't stop anymore, Qi Sheng also successfully traded with the owner of the chicken.

There is one more meat dish. Qi Sheng intends to look for fish again. Although they are inland areas here, with the wisdom of working people, the natural food in the river cannot allow them to grow freely.

As expected, Qi Sheng found a fish vendor.

Qi Sheng looked at some fat carp in the big iron basin and asked the young boy sitting next to him, "Little boss, how did you sell this fish?"

Zhao Xiaofei was looking at the novel with his head down at the moment. He didn't raise his head when he heard the words: "Five pounds of rice and a pound of fish.

Qi Sheng probably estimated the price, and found that a fish is more expensive than chicken. There is no way. Now that the price is rare, the lower the price, the higher the price. Qi Sheng plans to pick a big carp and go home to cook grilled fish for the whole family.

Qi Sheng bowed to pick a fish. When Qi Lei walked over to look for him, he looked at the teenager sitting on the small bench and was a little surprised.

"Xiaofei!"

"Lei brother!"

The two iron buddies met, and after the surprise, Qi Lei was curious: "Why did you sell the fish?"

"My little uncle's stall, let me help him to see, oh, see if there are no daily necessities, that is also his."

Qi Lei looked in the direction of Zhao Xiaofei. In front of a relatively large booth, a middle-aged couple was talking to guests. Qi Lei turned his head and looked at Zhao Xiaofei's face again, and he was relieved to see that he was not far behind what he looked a year ago.

The two have been in contact since the Internet connection, but Zhao Xiaofei was a rich second generation. Qi Lei was also worried about his psychological gap. Now looking at so many sources of supply from their family, they should have good living conditions.

Zhao Xiaofei was also the first time he saw Qi Lei's father. After saying hello to Qi Sheng, he thought of what he had heard recently and took Qi Lei to a small corner.

"Brother Lei, you don't care about Su Xue?"

"she was?"

"Yes, her recent life has not been easy, that ... and her mother, I heard that life is also very miserable."

Qi Lei and Su Xue met by chance after they went to junior high school. At that time, Qi Lei passed by and helped Su Xue who was bullied by the little girl. The little girl was grateful for the worship of the handsome and cool Qi Lei. Go to Qi Lei's school and follow him.

At that time, Xiao Suxue was a little bit of love, but unfortunately this incident was just discovered by Yang Ning. Finally, I learned that the person I like was a brother, and it was sad and happy.

Later, both of them knew each other's relationship. Qi Lei alienated Su Xue on the surface, but really saw her being bullied or would come forward without hesitation, just like Su Xue was forced to become the girlfriend of the school bully, Qi Lei Without a word, they started fighting with people.

Qi Lei couldn't help frowning at the little girl who always wanted to be close to him weakly.

"What's up with her?"

Zhao Xiaofei looked at his expression and knew that Qi Lei was still in love, so he replied: "Her, hey, at the beginning of their disaster, his father was unfortunately injured. Although the person didn't die, it was almost completely abolished. Can only be paralyzed in bed. The social order has changed, the previous money is not easy to use now, and the conditions of their family have also plummeted, and then ... "

Speaking of this, Zhao Xiaofei didn't know what to say next, Qi Lei instantly understood what he meant.

"What happened then? You just say it."

Zhao Xiaofei organized the language and embarrassedly said: "Then Mrs. Su took Su Xue away. Su Xue's father was taken to the relief station. Although the conditions were poor, at least there was a nest. But Mrs. Su was miserable. By the way, she still had money to buy food. Later, she spent all her money, and she lost her source of life completely. No matter what she did, anyway, Su Xue was often harassed by some messy men at her young age and wanted to escape. Nope. "

What Zhao Xiaofei did not say was that Mrs. Su, that is, Yang Ning, later started to make social flowers. It doesn't matter if he does it himself. In order to live a comfortable life, even his own daughter encourages him.

She didn't intend to let Su Xue really fall to that step, just thinking that Su Xue fully inherited her good looks. Under such a desperate situation, she still didn't rely on beauty to take the initiative to spend a lot of money on food and clothing.

Yang Ning almost bluntly talked about the situation of the mother and daughter, and also straightforwardly expressed her thoughts. Yang Ning thought that this time her daughter encouraged her to listen to it a few times, but did not expect the usually weak and weak girl, This time I actually got a temper!

The mother and daughter failed to communicate many times, and Yang Ning finally came a little bit ruthless. She didn't protect Su Xue anymore. Even when the perverts around her were filthy and sullied against Su Xue, you can imagine Su Xue's present Situation.

Qi Lei has understood all things in general. This natural disaster has plagued the entire world. He probably knows a little bit about the world outside.

Thinking of this, Qi Lei couldn't help but think of his more than a year of experience. I went back to my hometown at the beginning of the disaster, and I haven't really suffered much since.

Although the ingredients in the diet are a bit monotonous, his dad's cooking is really good, so that two or three kinds of ingredients can make him trick.

Qi Lei glanced at the fish that had been waiting for his father, thinking of the peaceful life for more than a year, thinking of his father trying his best to make them worry-free, and thinking of the days when their family was reading and painting in the library It was a bit funny to think that this natural disaster that everyone hates is the beginning of his happiness.

Qi Lei cleared his mind out of this world, and frowned and asked, "Where is she now?"

Qi Lei did not have too much affection for Su Xue, but the relationship between the two was special, and after a period of time when the relationship between the two became clear, Su Xue also cautiously pleased him.

Qi Lei knew the taste of wanting to be close to a person, so within the scope of his ability, he still wanted to help Su Xue, although this matter seemed to exceed his ability.

"They usually live in a shelter in the North District, but they may appear here in the past few days."

The trading center is a good time for Yang Ning to be a big fisherman, especially now that the Chinese New Year is approaching. After a year of hardship, the Chinese people will definitely not be stingy with this short good time. .

But yesterday Yang Ning did not come, and Zhao Xiaofei was not sure if she had found her next family.

Qi Lei Wen Yan looked back at Qi Sheng and saw that he was picking seasonings at the stall next to it.

Although this person said that he should not blame the adult on him, but because there are too many former subjects, Qi Lei is still very worried that Qi Sheng will be stimulated, and it will be him who suffers at that time!

Qi Lei thought that this could not help but smile bitterly, let alone help Su Xue now, it seems that if this person meets Yang Ning, he can't help himself.

Qi Lei talked to Zhao Xiaofei again before walking to Qi Sheng to help him with things.

Qi Sheng had already bought the seasonings, and after seeing them, they paid off the fish that had been picked and put the fish in their hands, and then said to Qi Lei, who was next to them, "Did you just go shopping and wanted to buy? Wait for us to buy things Send it to the car and buy it in the past. "

Now both sides of the transaction use food. Qi Sheng just carried chicken and fish for 20 kilograms of rice and a large bag of cooked eggs. Although this transaction method is very troublesome, no one is willing to use paper money, not even gold. At best, even if the government has been in this area for a long time, the effect is still very small, because people in disasters do n’t believe in anything else when the food is difficult to satisfy.

Qi Lei has just seen a pair of snow boots, originally planned to buy them in the past, but now he dare not mention them.

"Dad, I have nothing to buy, let's go back."

"How long has it been here, why did you go back so early? Is it uncomfortable?"

"No, it just feels like nothing is missing."

Qi Sheng said with a smile: "Why is there no shortage, it has been more than a year, and it is time to buy you some new clothes. You have learned to learn from your brother. Now you may have selected a bunch of things to buy."

Qi Sheng said that he looked around for his youngest son, planning to see where the little monkey is now.

Qi Lei looked at his dad looking for someone, and his nervous heart jumped out. Unfortunately, the more afraid he would come, the more not far ahead, Yang Ningzheng, who was dressed up, patrolled her target with a charming smile on her side. Su Xue, who was also well dressed but kept her head down.

Qi Lei saw the scene beating for a moment, but after calming down, he looked at the two strangely, and a little curiously waited for the reaction of the person in front of him.

Qi Sheng also saw the familiar woman in front of her. Although she had experienced the wind and frost and life, but the well-maintained Mrs. Fu still had the charm after deliberate dress.

Yang Ning also naturally saw Qi Sheng. To be precise, she first saw the two chickens held by Qi Sheng in her left hand and the big fish in her right hand. Behind the face, the smile and charming expression finally broke.
