Chapter 42： bland

Zhong Dawa and Zhong Erwa came back after washing their faces and saw the four dishes on the small square table.

"Today is not the New Year, but in a few days it will be the Dragon Boat Festival. I will go back and find someone to exchange some glutinous rice to make dumplings for you." Song Zhaodi said, "The Dragon Boat Festival happened to be the end of the month, so let's take the remaining meat tickets. When I'm done, I'll make you a braised pork."

The big baby and the second baby are grinning happily.

Sanwa didn't quite understand what the two older brothers were laughing at, so she couldn't help giggling when they saw them so happy.

Seeing the children so happy, Song Zhaodi smiled involuntarily: "Eat it quickly, the meat will be cold later." Looking up, Zhong Jianguo frowned and thought deeply, quite surprised, " What are you thinking if you don't eat?"

"I'll be at home at the end of the month." Zhong Jianguo said.

Song Zhaodi helped her forehead, how greedy this man is: "The plan can't keep up with the changes, you're just a fool." After a while, "Are you going to the camp today?"

"Let's go again in the afternoon." Zhong Jianguo asked, "Is there any work?"

Song Zhaodi: "No. I'll make you a pair of slippers, try to see if they fit."

"Dad, look at my sandals." The big boy stretched out his feet, "Ma Zhenxing envied me very much, he also said—"

Song Zhaodi hurriedly interrupted Dawa: "You won't promise Ma Zhenxing for me again, will I make sandals for him?"

"No, no." Dawa shook his head and followed the rattle, "I told him to tell you himself, Ma Zhenxing dare not tell you, he is afraid of you."

Song Zhaodi was curious: "He hasn't been to our house very often, and he hasn't spoken to me very much. Why is he afraid of me?"

"Because you are the teacher." Zhong Dawa said, "The forest is also afraid of you."

Song Zhaodi hurriedly asked: "You didn't show your shoes to Lin Zhongxian, did you?"

"Lin Zhong asked if my shoes were made by a shoemaker, and I said no, my mother made them for me." Zhong Dawa said, her eyes suddenly widened, and she cautiously Said, "Mom, I was wrong."

Song Zhaodi smiled and said, "It's okay. Your father is too busy at home. I will take the three of you alone. They won't come to me to help make shoes."

The day before the Dragon Boat Festival, May 30th, in the morning, after eleven o'clock, Song Zhaodi came back from school not long ago, when the mother in the forest, Sister Chen, came with soles and cloth.

Song Zhaodi smiled and said, "It's unfortunate that my sister-in-law came, I have to make steamed buns with noodles later."

"It doesn't matter in the afternoon." Sister Chen blurted out.

Song Zhaodi's expression did not change, she scolded her heart, smiled and said, "Making noodles in the morning and steaming buns in the afternoon." After a pause, "I have already agreed with Aunt Liu, ask her to take care of me. Sanwa." Without waiting for Sister-in-law Chen to speak, she added, "I'm going to get some glutinous rice from the villagers on the island. I have to soak the glutinous rice in the evening, and I have to make zongzi tomorrow. Don't my sister-in-law make zongzi?"

Sister Chen pretended to have a sudden realization: "Look at my memory, I forgot the festival tomorrow, I'm sorry, Xiao Song."

"It doesn't matter." Song Zhaodi said, "It's me who should be embarrassed." He poured the water from the house into the cucumber field, and silently told Sister Chen that she still had vegetable fields. No water, very busy, "If my sister-in-law is in a hurry, ask Dawa to go to your house and take off the shoes. You can make Linzhong according to Dawa's shoes."

"That's fine too." Sister-in-law Chen's face flashed a trace of unease, and she was embarrassed to say that she could make it without looking at it when she saw the baby pass through.

Song Zhaodi pretended she couldn't make sandals, and shouted into the room, "Big baby, go to their house with Mother Chen." After a while, "Lead Sanwa over there."

"Okay." When Dawa heard the intention of Sister Chen, she was very afraid that Song Zhaodi would not cook and let his father cook. Then I heard that Song Zhaodi rejected Sister Chen, and the eldest child was so happy that she quickly pulled the third child and the second child out of the house.

Sister Duan is also cleaning up her vegetable garden at the moment. Song Zhaodi's voice is not small, and Sister Chen didn't lower her voice, so that Sister Duan, who separated the two fences, could hear it clearly.

Sister Chen returned to her room, and Sister Duan stood up, called Song Zhaodi, and asked in a low voice, "I'm looking for you again?"

"Maybe I think I'm young and thin-skinned, so I'm embarrassed to refuse." Song Zhaodi said, "The last time I helped her cut clothes, Jianguo agreed. If Jianguo didn't agree, I wouldn't be bothered.

"She does all the clothes for the young and old of the Lin family. The clothes I made for the eldest baby are very beautiful, but it is not difficult for a skilled worker like the sister-in-law of the Lin family. How to do it."

clothes."

Song Zhaodi: "It's true that children look better in clothes. Liu Wei is about to become a big boy, so he has to dress more maturely. By the way, sister-in-law, in more than a month, your family Liu Ping will graduate. Next year Liu Wei should also graduate, what are you going to ask them to do?"

"Uncle Liu wants to ask Liu Ping to be a nurse." Sister Duan said, "Liu Ping is a lazy person and doesn't want to go to high school. But we don't have high school on the island, so we have to go outside the island. go to school."

Song Zhaodi frowned slightly: "Sister-in-law, what does the high school outside mean?"

There is still some stinky old ninth sign hanging on it, and I feel that it is impossible to start the class." After a pause, "The teacher pulls out every day to be criticized, and he has no intention to teach the class. It is better to waste time in school than to learn something else. "

Song Zhaodi wanted to nod her head very much, when she thought that Liu Ping didn't like seeing her: "It's useless to press the head without drinking water, you should talk to her well, after all, it's her own business, we are parents I can't live for the kids."

Song Zhaodi smiled and said, "That's what you're used to. By the way, auntie, I'll go to the post office in the afternoon."

"Then I'll give you something later." Sister Duan said, and went back to the house to pick up dried beans and eggplant.

When the children went upstairs to sleep in the afternoon, Song Zhaodi went to the post office with half a bag of things. On the way back from the post office, I met Ma Zhenxing's mother Zhou Shufen.

Song Zhaodi had a headache when she saw her smiling shyly, but she couldn't pretend she didn't see it, so she asked, "What are you doing here?"

"Zhenxing said that Dawa's shoes are good-looking, so he had to ask me to make him a pair." Zhou Shufen said, "I think your head Zhong is not at home, you are very busy with a few children, How can I take care of it, I just want to ask you what to do with sandals."

Song Zhaodi: "It's just right, the eldest baby and the second baby are sleeping in the house at the moment, take off their shoes and put them to dry in the yard, you can just follow the eldest baby's shoes."

"I'm giving you trouble, Mr. Song." Zhou Shufen's workmanship is not good, Ma Zhenxing is clamoring for shoes, Zhou Shufen is very angry, she can't help but talk about Song Zhaodi, do something when she has nothing to do Okay, what are the sandals for the kids?

But she also knows that the weather is hot, and it is too hot to wear cloth shoes. People who can make sandals on the island make several pairs of sandals for their children to wear. She also felt that other people had children, and it was pitiful that her own children did not have sandals, so Zhou Shufen went to find Song Zhaodi while everyone was resting in the house.

Song Zhaodi didn't do it for Lin Zhong, so naturally she wouldn't do it for Ma Zhenxing, so while accepting Zhong Jianguo's soles, she instructed Zhou Shufen to sew shoes.

Zhou Shufen was a little surprised when she saw the Jiefang shoes on the corner of the wall: "Your head Zhong is back?"

"You don't know?" Song Zhaodi wondered.

Zhou Shufen: "No, our old horse didn't say that Captain Zhong was back."

"I came back last week." Song Zhaodi said, "Probably Captain Ma is too busy to know. By the way, I heard Lao Zhong mention that he came back for another group to go to sea, not you. An old horse?"

Zhou Shufen shook her head: "It's from another teacher." Speaking of which, Zhou Shufen understood, "Our old horse thinks about making meritorious deeds all day long, but this time Master Liu sent Captain Zhong out, but he didn't. They are probably not happy."

Song Zhaodi: "Our old bell is just the opposite of Captain Ma, and we can't wait to go out to sea from now on."

It’s better than seeing me. It’s not like before, I have a good relationship with him, and it’s like three years after he hasn’t seen me for one day.”

Song Zhaodi said with a smile: "We will be similar to you in the future. How come there is a sentence, no matter how much love is in the spring and snow, it will become the reality of firewood, rice, oil and salt.

"I still remember someone saying that love won't last long if it doesn't fall into the real life of dressing, eating, sleeping, and counting money. There is no love between the clocks, we just crossed the love and fell to reality. Maybe that day will not last until next year. "

"Love?" Zhou Shufen shook her head, "I used to think that love was beautiful. The incident with Teacher Yao made me understand that it is better than anything else to live a peaceful life."

Song Zhaodi nodded: "Yes. There is a saying, the most romantic thing I can think of is to grow old with you. However, this is not what I said, but also others. said."

"It's really good to say." Zhou Shufen envied, "You've been to college because you're different from me, such words come when you open your mouth."

Song Zhaodi said modestly, "I have a good memory." As soon as he finished speaking, he heard crying, and quickly said, "It should be Sanwa who woke up and didn't see me, I'll go take a look."

Zhou Shufen opened her mouth to say you go, but before the word "you" came out, Song Zhaodi ran up the stairs, Zhou Shufen saw Ma Zhonghua at night and couldn't help but tell him, Song Zhaodi is so nice, Zhong Jianguo is blessed.

Zhong Jianguo never wore slippers.

No one will do it when you are not married, and Baihua will not do it when you are married. Zhong Jianguo ran to the barracks every day, so he forgot about the slippers.

Today I took a bath and put on slippers with five toes exposed. Zhong Jianguo led the three children out for a walk, and by the way showed off their grandfather with the comrades who brought the children out to play A pair of shoes, that's called a comfortable one.

Song Zhaodi never stopped in her last life, either flying around or busy designing clothes. Originally thought she would not be used to living around the children and the stove all day long.

But every time I see a few children put down their dishes and slump on the chair, with a satisfied face, Zhong Jianguo asks her what to eat next before she finishes eating, and asks the exit for fear that she will be unhappy With a cautious look on her face, Song Zhaodi felt that this kind of life was not bad.

If Zhong Jianguo didn't die, it would be fine to just live a normal life.

Unfortunately, some people don't see her too comfortable.

After the Dragon Boat Festival, Song Zhaodi received a letter that she thought was sent from Xiao Song Village. Her parents scolded her about sending money to her family. Song Zhaodi had a bad feeling when she got her hands and saw that she was from Binhai.

Song Zhaodi opened the letter and relaxed when she saw that the title was written by Zhong Jianguo's eldest brother. But after reading the content of the letter, Song Zhaodi couldn't help scolding Zhong Jianguo's parents.
