"Old Crutch has been a bachelor all his life. Where did he get a wife?" Zhao Di couldn't help but wonder.
After a long while, Zhao Chunfang turned her head and stared at her daughter with a smile. She didn't say anything.
"Is my face dirty?" Her mother's gaze was very strange, and Zhao Di felt a little scared.
Zhao Chunfang said, "You're not an old bachelor. He Zhou is almost thirty. How can you talk about him?"
"Why are you talking about me?" Zhao Di knew that her matter was a knot in her mother's heart, but she could only leave her mother with regrets.
Zhao Chunfang said, "Old Crutch used to have a wife. He wasn't meant to be a bachelor all his life.
That was the first year I entered the He family. I remember that it was snowing heavily.
Old Crutch's wife had a difficult delivery of Li Hui. She died halfway before she could be sent to the town hospital.
After that, Li Jinguo took Li Hui away. Don't think that Liu Guangqin is usually arrogant, but she didn't even fart. She was still raising someone else's son. "
"What you said is so confusing." Zhao Di forced a smile and said, "Do you mean that Li Hui was born from Li Jinguo and Old Crutch's wife?"
She couldn't digest this news for a while.
Zhao Chunfang raised her lips and said, "What else do you think?"
"But …" In Zhao Di's impression, Li Jinguo was such an honest person, and Liu Guangqin had always been arrogant and domineering. Compared to her mother, she was not much inferior.
Therefore, she was very suspicious of what her mother said.
However, her mother's confident look made her choose to believe it.
She was about the same age as Li Hui, Li He, Chen Yongqiang, and the others. It could be said that they grew up together.
She suddenly recalled that Liu Guangqin's attitude towards Li Hui was a little strange. She was really willing to hit Li Hui. In the past, she just thought that she was unreasonable, but now it seemed that there was a direct reason.
Later on, Li Hui had been working behind Zhao Di, so she knew about his family's affairs.
Li Hui often complained to her that he hadn't earned any money yet, and his mother had used all of it to subsidize his sisters.
At that time, she had envied the older sisters of the Li family. They had a younger brother to take care of them and their mother to pay attention to them. Compared to them, her sisters were like heaven and earth.
Zhao Chunfang squinted at her for a while, then closed her eyes and smiled. She did not have the strength to make a sound.
It rained heavily during the Qingming Festival, and the passers-by felt their souls break.
At three o 'clock in the morning, He Zhou received the news that his grandmother had passed away.
He squeezed into the car in the rain, but the ignition was not lit. He turned the key several times, but it was still useless.
If the modification master gave him a good beating, he would have spent more than four million yuan, and now he was lying on the ground?
What do you mean by one is stronger than ten taels?
Boasting!
He slammed the car door shut and walked to the intersection. It was the middle of the night and it was raining. There wasn't even a passing car, let alone a taxi.
"Where?" He thought of Chu Dongpo. After asking for Chu Dongpo's location, he said, "I'm walking along Chessboard Street towards the hospital. Follow the road and find me."
The county hospital had moved out of the city, and it was seven or eight miles away from their current residence. It was not practical to walk there.
The wind was blowing fiercely and the rain fell on his body. Soon, he was soaked.
He found a place to hide under the eaves and waited for Chu Dongpo's car to arrive.
After he got into the car, he happened to find an old shirt of Chu Dongpo's. He changed into it regardless of whether it was clean or not. It was better than wearing wet clothes.
It was a rainy night.
Under normal circumstances, this should be the quietest time of the day in the hospital. However, at this moment, it was very lively. There were buses and cars parked at the entrance.
There was a continuous flow of people.
When He Zhou arrived at the hospital, the ward was full of people. When Chu Yang saw him, he gestured for everyone to make some space for him to enter.
The He brothers and sisters were crying bitterly by the bedside.
He Zhou wanted to cry, but his throat seemed to be blocked, and he could not cry.
His grandmother's funeral was held in the countryside. After three days of cremation, she was buried next to his grandfather.
He looked at his mother in a daze. He saw white hair on her head. At this moment, his tears flowed down.
After that, his uncle wanted to separate from the family.
What did he have at home?
It was nothing more than his grandmother's savings. It was about three million yuan, and it was all given by his mother and a few aunts.
All that was left was the house.
His mother made the decision and gave the savings to his uncle, but she insisted on not giving him the house.
Anyway, the house was not worth much, so his uncle did not insist. He took the compensation of five hundred thousand yuan and left happily.
"You should also go back to Pujiang. There is nothing to do at home." After the seventh day, Zhao Di began to drive He Zhou away.
In the old house, her parents were no longer there. In fact, there was no need for her to stay there anymore. However, suddenly, she did not want to leave.
Her son had grown up and could take care of some things for her outside.
For a moment, she wanted to retire at home, grow vegetables, and walk the dog.
"After the seventh day, I have nothing to do at home." He Zhou was worried about leaving his mother alone at home.
Just like that, he stayed at home for more than a month before returning to Pujiang.
Less than a week after returning to Pujiang, Qufu came to Pujiang from his hometown to register.
He Zhou personally went to the train station to pick him up.
"I'm sorry." Qufu lowered his head. He only wanted He Zhou to send him to the school gate, and insisted on registering himself.
A circle of people surrounded his car, pointing at him and smiling bitterly. They seemed to have understood something.
When Qufu's military training was over, he would come to find Qufu. He would either take a taxi, a bus, or the subway.
"How is it? You've been here for so long. Are you used to it? "He Zhou treated her to ground pot chicken.
"The school steamed buns taste terrible." Qufu sighed. "The noodles are stir-fried noodles. I can't do anything about it. Also, I want to cook my own noodles, but I can't use electrical appliances in the dormitory."
"Come to my place when you have time. I have a kitchen. You can eat whatever you want." He Zhou expressed that he understood. After all, he was also a person who ate noodles.
Qufu said, "You're in Pudong. It's so far away. I'm not going there."
He ordered a bowl of noodles and finished it while he was talking to He Zhou.
She put down her chopsticks and smacked her lips without caring about her image. "I don't care. It's fine once you get used to it. As long as you're willing to spend money, there's still a lot of good food."
"Is Uncle Qu's allowance enough?" He Zhou asked.
"No need. The county gave me a bonus of three thousand yuan. I haven't finished spending it yet," Qufu said with a smile. "I'm not nervous about my first year, so I found a tutor who pays me eighty yuan per lesson."
"Oh, it's that high?" He Zhou asked with a smile.
Qufu said proudly, "I got full marks in physics, chemistry, and mathematics. I think I'm still lacking."
He Zhou gave him a thumbs up. "You're the best."
When he got home, he realized that he lived in Pudong. It was indeed a bit far for him to go to Puxi to work every day.
He was wondering if he should move to Puxi.
