Chapter 154 154. Sudden Trouble
After walking for 20 days, he finally returned home. The moment he entered the house, Yue Wenxuan was smiling from inside to outside, and his whole body was filled with joy.

It happened to be [-] noon, the old lady and Lin Suzhi had just finished lunch and were setting the table.

Lin Suzhi, who was setting the bowl, looked up and saw Yue Wenxuan who pushed the door and walked in. At this moment, Yue Wenxuan was the only one left in her whole world, and the smile on her face was like a rose in full bloom. Splendid and beautiful.

Yue Wenxuan put down the things in his hands, walked to the dining table in two or three steps, and just hugged his lover in his arms.

Neither of them spoke, the sound of each other's heavy breathing in their ears, and the beating of their hearts were already so beautiful that they didn't need to be broken by words.

I am used to being accompanied by such a person every day. Suddenly, after being separated for such a long time, when I wake up alone in the middle of the night, I will deeply realize how important the other person is.

Such happiness and beauty, the two had just enjoyed a moment when they were broken by the cry of the baby.

The two let go of their arms at the same time and ran into the house.

Yue Wenxuan's speed was faster, and he hugged the precious girl first, and kept shaking her while teasing her to talk.

Just after shaking for a few times, the baby girl stopped crying, and Yue Wenxuan proudly said to Lin Suzhi who ran over afterwards:

"You see, our girl's memory is really good. I've been away for so long, and she doesn't cry when she sees me. This must have recognized me."

Lin Suzhi rolled her eyes at her lover, and said mercilessly: "Your daughter is heartless, no matter who hugs her, she won't cry."

"This is my daughter who is sensible, not heartless." Yue Wenxuan kissed his daughter on the forehead, "Isn't it? Sisi."

Lin Suzhi said: "I'll leave Sisi to you, the child is quite obedient, you don't want to make her cry.

I don't have your portion for lunch, so I'll cook something for you and make two steamed buns by the way.

How many steamed buns will you bake, is three enough? "

While coaxing his daughter, Yue Wenxuan replied by the way: "Two are enough, I won't be hungry anywhere, my stomach is still so big, and my appetite hasn't changed."

He hugged his daughter, followed behind his wife, walked to the kitchen and said hello to grandma.

Seeing her grandson came back, the old lady was very happy. She frantically cooked two delicious dishes for Yue Wenxuan and asked him if he wanted some wine.

Everything is ready-made, and it is very quick to make. In more than 20 minutes, the food is on the table.

Too complicated things, time is too tight, too late to do.

The old lady and Lin Suzhi fried a fried bacon with green peppers, fried a plate of eggs, and fried radish that Yue Wenxuan had prepared before entering the house. There were three dishes, which were considered top dishes in this difficult period. Very rich.

The staple food is Wotou and steamed buns from Erhe noodles. Usually, the steamed buns are specially made for the old lady. Today, Yue Wenxuan has just returned home, so he can also enjoy the old lady's treatment.

Yue Wenxuan said contentedly while eating with big mouthfuls:

"The food at home is still delicious, and the steamed buns at home are better than the steamed buns outside.

If there is nothing important in the future, I really don't want to go on a business trip. It's better to stay at home wherever I go. "

Neither the old lady nor Lin Suzhi was in a hurry to ask him about his business trip, and now they wanted to make Yue Wenxuan eat well, and kept persuading him to eat more.

The whole family ate their fill, cleared the table, and the family sat in the living room. Lin Suzhi and the old lady sat opposite Yue Wenxuan, one on the left and one on the right, and asked him about his business trip.

What Lin Suzhi was most concerned about was the situation of her friend Gao Manhua. Yue Wenxuan explained it in detail and did not hide it from her.

After listening, Lin Suzhi couldn't help but shed tears.

"Manhua has never suffered a little bit since she was a child, and she has suffered a little bit of grievance, but now she has to endure hunger and starvation in the mountains, and she can't even eat enough to eat when she is pregnant. How can she live a life like this?

We are thousands of miles away from her, and we can't help her in any difficulties, so I can send something.It's too difficult for her, so I'd better find a way to send her more in the future. "

Yue Wenxuan said: "We should send as much as possible, but we should not be too out of line, her side is too backward, and it would be very difficult to go to the town to get things.

The identities of the two of them are a little sensitive, and they can't send too frequently.

In the future, I will prepare more receipts for them, whether it is for their own use or for exchanging things with fellow villagers. "

He knew how severe the situation in the next few years would be, so he thought more and was more thoughtful.

"It's so difficult to go to the town, so what should she do when she gives birth? Isn't it too dangerous to give birth at home instead of going to the hospital?"

Lin Suzhi became even more worried when she thought of the difficulties she had in giving birth.

"We don't have to worry about this. When I went to Shudu, I met Aunt Lin Shulin. My aunt said that she would rush over before the due date and come back after confinement."

Hearing this news, Lin Suzhi immediately felt relieved, "It's okay if my mother wants to go there, my mother has always been in good health, and she is a doctor herself, so it is quite reassuring."

The old lady cared more about her in-laws and asked, "Grandma Sisi and grandpa, are they in good health?"

It has been nearly a year since Lin Suzhi and her mother separated, and she was very concerned about it, and asked all kinds of questions.

The family sat in the living room chatting until it was working time, when Lin Suzhi hurried out.

In the afternoon, while his daughter was asleep, Yue Wenxuan went to the vegetable cellar to check the things left before he left.

He walked for 20 days, but his things didn't move much. It can be seen that the old lady and Lin Suzhi must have lived frugally during this period, and the food was not good.

It was already a thing of the past, even if he wanted to persuade him, it was already too late, so he could only sigh in his heart.

Before he left, he had already expected this result, so he specially exhorted him, but the two of them didn't listen to what he said at all.

He could understand the thoughts of the two of them. After all, in this period, everyone is having a very difficult time, and the two of them will inevitably be affected by the people around them.

It is good to be able to eat enough in normal times. If you eat too well, it is easy to make people have a criminal mentality.

This time, he could use an excuse to bring back a lot of things and replenish the various supplies that were missing at home.

He has been away on business for such a long time, and when he comes back, he must also tell his father.

He simply went to the No. [-] Machine Tool Factory before leaving get off work, picked up his father, elder brother and brother-in-law, and went home for dinner together.

There are many people in the family today, and Yue Wenxuan brought back a lot of food, of course he had to eat something good.

The old lady showed her skills and prepared a table of sumptuous meals before everyone entered the door.

When he entered the door and smelled the strong aroma of food, Yue Wenjie couldn't help asking: "Grandma's cooking is really getting better and better. What kind of good food is this again? This smell is too fragrant!"

The old lady just came out of the kitchen with a basin in her hand, and said triumphantly:

"Today you are lucky, Wenxuan brought back a lot of mountain treasures this time, all of which are rare items that you have never seen before.

I stewed a cured duck, and just put some dried mushrooms in it, but I didn't expect the taste to be so fragrant. "

Went to the Southwest for a trip, and Yue Wenxuan just had an excuse to bring out some mountain delicacies from the Southwest.These things are rare in the north, and he usually doesn't take them home, but today he just let his family taste them.

Today's main dish is stewed duck with mountain delicacies. Yue Wenxuan opened a jar of 30-year-old Fenjiu, and the four elders drank it lively.

When Yue Yunxuan was at home, with him subsidizing everyone from time to time, the lives of several families were not difficult, at least they would not go hungry, and occasionally they could improve their lives.

But after he left, without his subsidy, the lives of several families suddenly fell to the bottom.

Not to mention improving your life occasionally, it is not easy to get enough to eat. No matter what you eat, you have to plan carefully. I am afraid that if you eat too much in the first half of the month, you will be hungry in the second half of the month.

Yue Wenxuan also took this situation into consideration, and specially asked grandma to make it richer, so as to improve and supplement everyone's nutrition.

The second half of this year is the most difficult period in the past few years. By next year, especially the second half of [-], the situation will be much better, and various supplies will gradually return to their previous normal levels.

As the family gathers, the main topic of conversation is the increasingly tight supply situation during this period.

When it comes to this topic, everyone's heart is inevitably a little heavy.

It's rare for a family to get together, and they must be happy. Yue Wenxuan noticed that the atmosphere at the dinner table was a little off, so he quickly changed the subject:

"Dad, I went to the Southwest this time, and my friend brought two Xuanwei hams.

Each leg has to weigh more than 20 kilograms, and the four of us share one point.

Xuanwei ham is very famous, and it is said to taste very good, so let's try it too. "

Yue Bingjiang said with a moving face: "Xuanwei ham is a good thing. I ate it once before liberation, and it tasted really good. I can't forget the taste so far.

Your friend is really generous enough to give you two legs. This is a big favor.

Now there is a shortage of meat everywhere in the country. The price of Xuanwei ham is much more expensive than fresh meat. Even if it is cheap, it will cost a lot of money. "

"It's a good thing the ham can be stored. The longer it is stored, the better the taste. My comrade's family has good conditions. These hams were smoked by fellow villagers in Tuoshan two years ago. Because they are resistant to storage, they have been kept until now.

I rarely go there, it's cheap for me. "Yue Wenxuan explained simply.

Of course, this was just an excuse. Yue Wenxuan did have a few comrades in arms in the Southwest, but they all lived in remote places. He didn't have time to visit this time, so he could only send something to each of them.

After a period of time, the family will definitely receive their gifts in return, even if it is not pickled cured goods, mountain delicacies and the like will definitely be indispensable.

After eating and drinking, Yue Wenxuan took out two hams and began to divide them.

Originally, he planned to give each of them ten catties, but the three of them disagreed desperately.

Yue Bingjiang said: "You still have so many comrades-in-arms and colleagues. You went to the Southwest once and brought so many things. Everyone gets a point. How can we share it all with our own family.

If you have many friends, if you share a little bit with each of them, it will be gone.This time I'm in charge. If you give us two catties each, that's already a lot.

If it wasn't for the consideration that the ham could be stored and eaten slowly, two catties would be too much for me, and one catty would be enough. "

What Dad said made sense, but Yue Wenxuan couldn't tell him the truth, so he could only do what he said.

At most, when the knife is cut, the hand is a little looser. It is said that it is two catties, but it is actually three catties for each person.

The next day, Yue Wenxuan officially reported to the factory and started another day of work.

Just as the family was about to have dinner at night, there was a knock on the door.

Yue Wenxuan opened the door and saw that it was his father who came over. Seeing that his face was not very good, he quickly invited him in.

Although Yue Wenxuan never made his family hungry, due to the influence of the environment, the old lady has always been able to cook well, and she can cook as much as she eats, and she will never cook too much.

Now suddenly there was one more person to eat, Lin Suzhi hurriedly cooked a dish and made two extra steamed buns.

It's simple and fast. The family sits and talks for a while, and the food is served on the table.

Dad came so late, Yue Wenxuan knew something must be wrong, but he didn't ask before the meal, so as not to affect the whole family's meal.

Lin Suzhi and the old lady went to the kitchen to wash the dishes. Before Yue Wenxuan asked, Yue Bingjiang said with a gloomy expression:
"This Liu Yongming is really lingering, and he has disturbed all the good days.

I didn't expect that he had already gone in, and he could cause such a big trouble for the family, it really drove me to death! "

Yue Wenxuan didn't expect that it was because of Liu Yongming. Just like what his father said, Liu Yongming had already entered, so what trouble could he cause? He couldn't figure it out, so he asked:
"The more I listen, the more confused I become. Liu Yongming has already gone in. How can he still have the ability to cause trouble for our family?"

"He went in, but his wife and children are still outside.

His mother-in-law's health was not good, and life is so difficult now, and she passed away some time ago.

Only his wife and a few children are left at home.

His wife is also delicate and frail. I don't know if it's because of too much pressure or poor physique. After sending her old mother away, she became bedridden.

You said she is a paralyzed person who can't even take care of herself, how can she take care of her children? "

Hearing this, Yue Wenxuan already had a guess.

He didn't interrupt, Yue Bingjiang continued: "Since Liu Yongming went in, Fang Dahong would go over to see those children from time to time, and secretly make up for it.

I've always known about this, but I can't say it.

After all, those children are her own granddaughters and grandsons. Life is so difficult these days, and I can't just watch them die. If I forcefully stop her from approaching, it won't make sense, it seems that I am too cold-blooded.

As long as she doesn't go too far and helps a little, I'll just pretend I don't know.

It's all right now, Liu Yongming's wife is paralyzed on the bed, unable to take care of the children, and the Niu family has no relatives, so these children are very popular!

Fang Dahong is such a thief!

She knew that I would definitely not let these children in, so she told Wenhua about it in private.

What can Wenhua do?

Liu Yongming is his half-brother, and his children are his nieces and nephews.

As an uncle, he is also a married person now, he is considered an adult, how can he still watch his own niece and nephew have nowhere to go?

That must make people poke the spine!
This brat was worried that I would not agree and did not discuss with me, so he took these children into the house.

It really pissed me off, seeing those brats made me angry.

I am blind, and raised a white-eyed wolf like Liu Yongming, but now that I am cured, I have to raise a little white-eyed wolf for him.

I was so unlucky for eight lifetimes that I married Fang Dahong! "

Yue Wenxuan understood his father's mood very well. His father must be very angry when such a incident happened, but he was more helpless.

Given how much my father hates Liu Yongming, he is definitely not willing to raise a child for him. It is best for the two families to never have any contact with each other.

But now that Liu Yongming has gone in, his wife is paralyzed in bed again and can't take care of the children. Yue Wenhua, who is an uncle, has the responsibility to take care of these children until Liu Yongming comes out.

Can he forcefully stop it?

If Yue Wenhua really didn't care, and the children were reduced to such a point where he couldn't survive, he would definitely be stabbed in the back.

Moreover, Yue Wenhua was originally a person of integrity. If he didn't care about it, he would definitely feel sorry for his conscience and would definitely take on this burden.

Things have come to this point, we can only accept the reality.

Yue Wenxuan also had no good solution. Before Liu Yongming came out, these children must live with Yue Wenhua for a period of time.

He could only persuade him: "Dad, a person who understands like you shouldn't be angry about this.

No matter what happens, you have to find a way to solve it, and you can do whatever you want. It's useless to be angry.

Wenhua is the uncle of several children. When the children are desperate, they must take the responsibility of raising and educating them.

If he really doesn't care, it's up to you to decide. I think you'll have to pretend to be confused in the end, and let Fang Dahong take over the child.

Who made you kind?You can't just watch a few children die.

If you want me to say, out of sight, out of mind, you might as well move me to live here.

It just so happens that my grandma is getting old, and I don't feel at ease in the house alone at night. With you by my side to take care of her at all times, everything will be fine.

Whenever you miss Wenhua, let the couple come over for a meal, that's not very good. "

Yue Bingjiang was really tempted by Yue Wenxuan's suggestion.

He certainly couldn't live here forever, and he would also be worried if he really left the courtyard to Fang Dahong.

But right now he is angry, and he is annoyed when he sees those children of Liu Yongming, so he hides temporarily, out of sight and out of mind, and can be quiet.

After a period of time, the breath in my heart will naturally slowly dissipate. If I go back at that time, I should be able to get used to it.

Dad didn't refuse immediately, he was obviously a little tempted, Yue Wenxuan struck while the iron was hot:
"Then it's settled, you will stay here today and won't leave.

I have food and drink here, and no neighbors have come to disturb me. The yard is also spacious, and it is convenient to take a walk after eating. You will definitely not want to leave after staying for a few days. "

Seeing that his son really wanted him to stay, Yue Bingjiang made up his mind, "Then I'll stay here for a while, but I definitely can't live with you forever, I still have to go back to the courtyard.

I'll stay here for a month. After such a long time, the breath in my heart should be gone.

I'm just unhappy, but I have to do what I want to do, and it's useless to escape.

Who made it unlucky for me to marry a daughter-in-law like Fang Dahong, that is to say, she has no relatives, otherwise, there would be more troubles. "

Speaking out the resentment in his heart, Yue Bingjiang felt much more relaxed.

When Yue Wenxuan's family was about to go to bed, there was another knock on the door.

Opening the door, it was Yue Wenhua and Ma Xuejuan who came.

After entering the door, Yue Wenhua asked in the first sentence: "Second brother, is your father here?"

"Here, didn't our dad tell you to come to my place?"

"I said it, but I didn't say that I would live with you. Xuejuan and I were worried, so we came over to have a look."

When Yue Wenhua spoke, he didn't dare to meet the second brother's eyes, he looked guilty.

The whole family was still awake, and when they heard the movement outside, they all came to the living room.

The old lady and Lin Suzhi also knew about the troubles in the courtyard. This matter has nothing to do with Lin Suzhi, so naturally they don't care about it, let alone worry about it.

Yue Wenhua was the grandson of the old lady, and the old lady was very worried about him when such a thing happened.

After the family sat down, the old lady said first:
"Wenhua, don't be so sad. There is no obstacle in this world. Your father is not angry with you anymore. You can just live your own life in the future."

Knowing that his father was no longer angry with him, Yue Wenhua was very happy when he finally heard good news, with a smile on his face, he said to grandma:

"It's all my fault. This matter should be discussed with my family first, and I shouldn't make my own decisions and make my dad angry.

As long as my dad doesn't get angry and life is a little bit harder, I'm not afraid. What can I do if something like this happens?The tube still has to be tubed.

Fortunately, there is hope for this matter. I don't need to take care of the children all the time. When others come out, they will naturally pick up the children. "

The old lady also doesn't like these children of Liu Yongming, but she can see it clearly, so she won't object, "You're right if you think so, it's just a blink of an eye, when Liu Yongming comes out, you will be relieved .

The children are not very old, and it's not time to go to school now, so it's fine if you have a stutter, so you don't have to worry too much.

Besides, there are quotas for several children, have their quotas been transferred to you? "

Ma Xuejuan then said: "Sister-in-law Niu is a sensible person, and she took the initiative to ask for the ration of several children to be transferred to our side.

She also wanted to save a share of her rations for us, but I refused.

Mrs. Niu is really pitiful. She is paralyzed in bed and can't move. The neighbors take turns to help her. "

The old lady sighed: "This is fate, what can I do? You are taking care of her children, and she has no worries. She is already very lucky.

In her situation, she must also understand in her heart that summer can survive no matter what, and winter is a big hurdle.

It's freezing cold, one depends on whether she is well taken care of, and the other depends on whether she can survive it by herself. "

Although the old lady didn't say it clearly, everyone knew what she meant.

Ma Xuejuan's old mother has been paralyzed in bed for many years. She can persist for such a long time because her family takes good care of her.

Liu Yongming's daughter-in-law did not have such a good life.With neighbors taking turns helping out, how well can that be taken care of?
When you are hungry, it would be nice to have someone to stutter. Turning over, massaging, and cleaning, each one is more burdensome than the other, so it must not be counted on.

Thinking of the difficult situation of Liu Yongming's daughter-in-law, even Yue Bingjiang felt much less resentment.

The family talked for a while, and Yue Wenhua saw that it was getting late, so he said:

"Dad, it's already 10:30, let's go, we have to get up early for work tomorrow."

It was difficult for Yue Bingjiang to answer this question, so Yue Wenxuan said quickly:
"Our dad promised to live with me for a period of time, and it took me a lot of effort to get our dad to agree.

Our dad won't go back, how did you two get here?If you don't ride a bicycle, I'll take you back home. "

"We came here by bicycle, so there is no need to send it."

Suddenly learning that his father lived with his second brother for a while, Yue Wenhua was still a little uncomfortable. He felt that his father was still angry with him, so he said a little wronged:

"Dad, I already know I was wrong, and I shouldn't make my own decisions, so don't be angry with me.

I have already told my mother that those children will live in the same room with me temporarily, and try not to let them dazzle in front of your eyes.

I think those children are quite obedient, they don't cry or make trouble, and they don't dare to speak. I will educate them more in the future, and I will definitely not be a white-eyed wolf when I grow up. "

"Why, I've stayed with your second brother for a while, do you still have an opinion?

Go home quickly, I will only live for a month at most.

During this time, you are the mainstay of your family, so you have to take good care of your family.When I go back, if it's not the case with you, let's see how I deal with you. "

After being scolded so unceremoniously by his father, Yue Wenhua was quite strong, and finally a smile appeared on his face, and he said cheerfully:

"Don't worry, I'm married and an adult, and I'm sure I can take care of the family well.

When you come back, you don't have to worry about anything, just wait and enjoy yourself. "

Yue Wenxuan said cheerfully: "This time our father gave you the opportunity to be the pillar of the family, and this is also a test for you.

After a month, it's time to test the results.If you take good care of your home, manage it in an orderly manner, and the family has food, drink, and laughter, then my dad will go back.

If you can't be the pillar of the family, and the family has little food, no drink, and misery, then I won't let our dad go back and suffer with you.

You see how good it is for my dad to follow me, eat and drink, and don't have to worry about messy things.If you fail the test, I will let my father live with me for a long time, and then don't complain. "

"That can't be done! How can our father live here forever?

Our dad has lived in a courtyard house for most of his life, so he must still be able to live in a courtyard house.

There are some old neighbors living in the yard, and they are also some factory workers. When they are resting at home, just a few people can get together to chat and talk, what a good mood.

You live in a very comfortable compound in the Red Mansion, but it's hard to find anyone to talk to.It's okay if the time is short, but if the time is long, our dad will definitely feel uncomfortable, so we still have to go back. "

Yue Wenhua definitely couldn't let his father live here for a long time, so he immediately found out a bunch of reasons.

Yue Wenxuan said, "That depends on your performance."

When Yue Wenhua left, he felt very heavy, for fear that his father would get used to living here and would not want to go back.
