ordinary human life

"What's the refund? This is for Tao Zi." Li Dalu forced the things onto him.

He Sihai could only accept it.

"Taozi, thank you, Grandpa."

"Thank you, grandpa." Taozi said obediently.

Tao Zi thinks that this vicious-looking grandpa is pretty good.

Chapter 19

"I've spoken to the foreman and also to Cuixiang, but it's not a long-term thing for you to put your sister in the shed.

The environment on the construction site is noisy and dusty, and as you know, the weather is hot now, so let’s use a steamer in the shed. "Li Dalu led He Sihai towards the work shed while saying.

Why doesn't He Sihai know, but what can he do?

"I see, Master, I will find a way."

"What can I do? I asked you to go to the factory before, but now you have a younger sister, it must be impossible. By the way, don't you have any relatives in your hometown? Can't you entrust them to take care of it?"

Li Dalu is also very worried about why Sihai.

Although such an apprentice, the relationship is very unstable, and it may even be just a title.

But as a teacher, he still does his best.

Nowadays, there are too few young people like He Sihai who are honest, reliable, hard-working, frugal and take care of their families.

He also has no daughter, otherwise he must be recruited as a son-in-law.

"Cuixiang, these are the children of He Tao and Liu Xiaojuan."

In front of the work shed, Li Dalu greeted a middle-aged woman who was washing vegetables.

In fact, I work part-time on a construction site and basically know everyone.

For example, Li Dalu, Tang Sheng before, and Yao Cuixiang who was washing vegetables...

They are all in one place.

Working outside the home, especially on these construction sites, is generally done in groups.

Otherwise, it is easy to be bullied, and there is no one to help.

In addition, they all lead one by one, and eventually they lead into a large gang.

In the past, many contractors pulled up their teams in this way.

Although Yao Cuixiang is not familiar with He Tao and his wife, they have met several times.

What's more, He Tao and his wife fell into the river and drowned, which is big news in the local area.

"This poor baby, come, give auntie a hug, and auntie will cut watermelon for you to eat." Yao Cuixiang walked up, reaching out to hug the peach.

As for He Sihai, of course she knew him, and he was very familiar with him. After all, he was the one who ate the most at noon every day.

It's just that he didn't know it was He Tao's son.

Tao Zi shrank into He Sihai's arms with some fear.

Although Yao Cuixiang is a woman, she is tall and thick, with a look of force.

In fact, it was also because of this. Otherwise, with so many people eating, she might not be able to do it alone as a chef.

But nice people.

Every time He Sihai ate, he served him a large portion of food.

So He Sihai comforted Taozi in his arms and said, "Don't be afraid, call me Grandma Yao."

In fact, the real situation is that Yao Cuixiang knows that the dishes she cooks are not good, and everyone doesn't like them very much.

He Sihai is the only one who doesn't pay too much attention, so naturally she has to give him more each time, so that she can feel more fulfilled and avoid wasting the leftovers. After all, the weather is hot now, and it will turn bad quickly.

"Grandma Yao." Since my brother said so.

Taozi let out a natural and obedient cry.

"Hey."

Yao Cuixiang happily responded.

Yao Cuixiang also has a granddaughter, who is younger than Taozi, and she hasn't seen her for a while.

Seeing Taozi, she looked very kind.

"I've given Taozi to me, you guys go to work." Yao Cuixiang was about to walk into the shed with Taozi in her arms.

He Sihai was a little worried and followed in.

Li Dalu wanted to stop him, but he swallowed the words, lit a cigarette, and squatted at the door to smoke.

Amidst the smog, he didn't know what he was thinking.

Yao Cuixiang carried the peach in, and sure enough, she found a watermelon, and wanted to cut it for the peach to eat.

He Sihai put down the Want Want gift bag in his hand, thinking about opening it directly.

"Taozi, if you want to eat, you can take it here, but after eating, remember to drink plenty of water." He Sihai reminded with some worry.

"Yeah." Tao Zi sat on the stool and nodded obediently.

"With me here, don't worry, she won't be hungry or thirsty." Yao Cuixiang, who was cutting watermelon, said.

"Thank you, Aunt Yao."

"Thank you, it's all from the folks in the village." Yao Cuixiang said.

"Taozi, Dad is working outside. If you miss me, you can see me by standing at the door, but don't go over, just call me loudly." He Sihai urged again.

"it is good."

Taozi put the little rabbit doll and little fat chicken toy in his hand on the table in front of him, and started playing.

He Sihai wanted to say something, opened his mouth, and finally sighed helplessly.

"Aunt Yao, I'm sorry to trouble you."

"Say it, don't be shy."

He Sihai gritted his teeth, turned and walked out.

When he got to the door, he looked back at Tao Zi who was playing with his head down, and strode out.

At this time, Tao Zi raised her head, staring at his back in a daze.

"Why, you can't bear to part with my brother? My brother won't go far, he will just work in front, come and eat watermelon."

Yao Cuixiang, who brought the watermelon, happened to see this scene.

"Thank you grandma." Tao Zi said with a smile.

"Hey, your mouth is so sweet." Yao Cuixiang pinched her little cheek.

However, He Sihai seemed to claim to be his father just now?

Did you hear me wrong?

……

"Wow, Sihai, what's wrong with you? You worked so hard today?"

Today's He Sihai surprised Li Dalu.

Whether it is moving bricks or carrying ash buckets, not only the speed is fast, but also the quantity is large, and it seems that there is endless energy in the whole body.

"Hey." He Sihai smirked.

Because it's really hard to explain.

Did he say that because he was too strong, the work was too easy?

"Silly boy, don't you need to do this? Don't make yourself so tired, Taozi still needs someone to take care of her?"

Li Dalu was very touched, he is really an honest child.

Why don't I have a daughter?

He thought He Sihai was thanking him for helping to keep the peaches, so he worked hard to express his gratitude.

"Master, I know what's going on." He Sihai continued to work as he said.

But he was grabbed by Li Dalu.

"You silly boy, if you do what you do, won't you suffer? You work for a day and get a day's wages. If you rush to finish the work, who will pay you? Don't you want to rush the progress of the project?"

When He Sihai heard that he had no money, he immediately slowed down.

He turned his head and glanced in the direction of the shed, vaguely seeing Tao Zi standing at the door of the shed and looking over here.

He Sihai immediately waved his arm as a signal.

I don't know if Taozi has seen it.

When I looked back, I glanced at the place where the cemetery was discovered that day, and there was only a big pit left at the scene.

The entire tomb has been removed.

He Sihai mechanically repeated the work at hand, and glanced in the direction of the work shed from time to time.

At the same time, I was thinking about how to make money.

Fortunately, he is much stronger now, even if he is distracted, he is not slow to work.

At this moment, someone called out to take a break.

He Sihai immediately threw the ash bucket on the ground and ran towards the shed.

"This brat." Li Dalu shook his head helplessly and tidied it up.

The weather is too hot, and there is still cement in the ash bucket, so it will be difficult to handle after drying.

He Sihai hasn't arrived at the work shed yet.

Peaches rushed out of it.

"dad."

Hey, Yao Cuixiang, who was about to speak, heard clearly this time, with a puzzled look on her face.

Tao Zi ran over and wanted to hug He Sihai.

But He Sihai hurriedly avoided him.

His body is terribly dirty now, with dust, sweat, and cement mixed in.

Especially his hands, which were gray and could not see the color of his skin.

Chapter 20 Lunch Break

"Dad is dirty, I'll wash it first."

He Sihai ran to the faucet to rinse.

Tao Zi followed closely behind him.

He Sihai saw that she was covered in sweat, her hair was in strands, and her clothes were soaked.

Although the work shed was shaded, it was steaming hot when the sun was shining, and Yao Cuixiang was still cooking inside, so the temperature was even higher.

"Hot? Did you drink more water?"

Taozi immediately picked up her little yellow duck water bottle when she heard this.

"I drank three." Tao Zi said.

His face was full of excitement, and he looked proud that I was very good.

"I didn't drink three, but I drank three pots."

He Sihai pulled her over, fetched some tap water, and wiped her face.

The cool tap water made Taozi narrow her eyes.
