Chapter 22 Marriage

The next day, Xu Le stood on the bed and took out a small gold-painted box from the closet. It belonged to his grandma. It used to be used by his father to store money. Later, Xu Le followed Cao Yuwen to Hebei and brought it with him .

At first, it was filled with the little thing that Xu Xinmin left for Xu Le—an old silver bracelet, which was handed down from the old Xu family. When Xu Le's mother left, he took it off and returned it, and there was still 60 yuan. The money was collected by the elders in the village. They always felt that Xu Le had to leave his hometown to follow someone with a different surname, so he needed some money in order not to suffer.

Later, Cao Yuwen went to work and started selling spicy cabbage again, earning money.He originally planned to keep the money with the old lady, after all, it was his mother, but the old lady said that she was not Cao Yuwen's mother alone, and she would not take anyone's money.Don't look at this badly, and just think about taking that stuff to help this one. In the end, it won't be good either way.The old lady asked Cao Yuwen to keep it for herself.

So, Cao Yuwen gave the money to Xu Le, put it in his gold-painted box, and completely handed over Xiaojia's financial rights.After the two started selling spicy cabbage, they earned a total of 500 yuan a month, including their wages. A total of 15 yuan was spent on the five pocket money.

Now it is May of the second year, even though I spent 100 yuan at the beginning of spring, it has already started to pay back, so Xu Le still has more than 300 yuan in this small box.

Xu Le put the box on his lap, took out a key from his body and opened the lock, only to reveal this neat pile of money. Cao Yuwen stretched his head while putting on his clothes, rubbed his little head and said, "Xu Le Rich man, reward the little one!"

With a serious face, Xu Le counted out ten cards of Great Unity one by one, and handed them to him, "Here, it's for you, don't spend it indiscriminately." Cao Yuwen laughed immediately, took the money and kicked it in his pocket , I said, "Hurry up and put it away. When you are free in two days, let's open a bank account and save it. How can there be so much money at home."

"That's for you to go to Aunt Zhou's house to buy gifts on weekends." Xu Le didn't look up, and then counted the money, "I asked Zhang Xiaoting, who was upstairs with Aunt Zhou, and she said that Aunt Zhou's father was cute smoking and drinking Well, you will probably be happy if you buy some. Cashmere scarves are popular recently, you buy one for Grandma Zhou, she will definitely like it. By the way, don’t forget to buy one for grandma too, grandma likes red ones, I asked about it.”

Xu Le was sitting on the bed in autumn clothes and chatting while counting money, how cute he looked, Cao Yuwen was warmed by what he said.If the kid didn't miss him, how could he even inquire about other people's preferences, even he himself was so busy with these two things that he forgot to go to Zhou Jie's house.

He leaned against Xu Le and pinched his little nose. Xu Le hummed dissatisfiedly, handed him the other 100 yuan, and said, "Godfather, Li Gui and the money are in front of the hospital." The dean and the principal of the school should ask for it in person."

Cao Yuwen nodded, "Yes, and Director Chen of our unit, he came forward to deal with it, and he also decided on the compensation."

"Then when you give the money, you should let them see it. Otherwise, they will think that our family will not implement it." Xu Le said seriously, "Zhang Xiaohong in our class borrowed money, but turned around and refused to admit it. Fei Uncle Fei is like that, who knows if he will turn his face and deny it, godfather, don't give it to him in private."

Cao Yuwen didn't know what to say now, he didn't think as much for an adult as for a child.Can't help but say, "My godfather is still caring, godfather likes you the most." Xu Le laughed when he heard it, turned his head and tilted his head on Cao Yuwen's body, twisted his body and acted like a baby, "Godfather is also caring, and Lele also loves you." My favorite godfather."

The old lady opened the door and came in, and when she heard the father and son, she had a rare smile on her face, "Okay, it's already seven o'clock, come out to eat quickly, your brother has already gone to pick up Guixiang, and he will be back soon, you all say bye Then, Lele, you and Feifei go to school, and Yuwen should go to work too. You are not a regular worker there, and after so many days of delay, your factory manager is afraid that there will be opinions, so please say something nice."

As soon as the compensation issue was finished yesterday, Li Guixiang's body was set to be burned this morning.She died of illness in middle age, and she died suddenly. She was not in the mood to set up a sacrificial shed or display wine. Originally, the ashes could be stored directly in the crematorium, but Lao Cao's family still had a cemetery in their hometown, so they agreed to put the ashes away Bring it back, wait for the summer vacation, take Cao Fei back to his hometown for burial.

So, early this morning, Cao Yuwu took Cao Fei and followed the car to the crematorium. Cao Yuwen was also busy outside for a long time, and only Xu Le slept in. After all, he is not from the old Cao family.

A few minutes after Xu Le had eaten, Cao Yuwu and Cao Fei came back. Both father and son's faces were dusty, and they couldn't tell whether they were ugly or covered in dust. Cao Fei hugged the black A crock with a picture of Li Guixiang stuck on it.This photo is probably taken in the early years. She still has two big braids and a smile on her face. She is completely different from the mean woman Xu Le saw.

The old lady looked at her grandson distressedly, and motioned for Cao Yuwu to take over the ashes and put them in a prepared corner of the house.After laying out all the prepared offerings, he lit three incense sticks and handed them to Cao Fei. He pushed him and said, "Feifei, kowtow to your mother and tell him that you will live well, so she can rest assured."

Cao Fei pursed his lips, knelt down on the concrete floor, and kowtowed three times, shaking the whole floor.The old lady was startled, fearing that he would be injured, she hurried to help him, but as soon as her hand touched his body, she yelled, "Why is it so hot?" Cao Fei fell to the ground in response.

Xu Le later recalled the month of Li Guixiang's death, and felt that everything was chaos.First it was Li Guihe's fuss, then Cao Fei's sudden high fever, and after bringing the little guy Cao Yuan back, he cried day and night.The whole family was a mess. During the day, Cao Yuwu and Cao Yuwen had to go to work, and he had to go to school. The old lady took care of the two children, one big and one small, and cooked. At night, Cao Yuan could take care of them all by himself. Three adults and one child were completely overwhelmed, and no one knew how to keep him from crying unless he was tired and fell asleep.

Several members of Lao Cao's family lost weight at a speed that they saw, and all of them had dark circles under their eyes.Of course, it's not that they didn't think of other ways. Cao Yuwen once spent 20 yuan to hire a middle-aged woman to come over and let her look at Cao Yuan. Unfortunately, she left after working for two days, saying that she had never seen such a thing. Difficult child.

Later, when Cao Fei got better, he took over the task of watching Cao Yuan.He could hold Cao Yuan, the night cryer, all night long, talk to him, sing to him, wait for the hot weather in June, and take him to bang in the dark courtyard in the middle of the night.In this way, the people in the room can finally sleep soundly.But who would be willing, Cao Fei is only a nine-year-old child.

Xu Le looked at Cao Fei who wanted to sleep on the table every day, his thin shoulder blades could poke someone to death, and thought how could this child be so pitiful.Can't help but buy milk for him, buy calcium tablets, feed Cao Yuan for him, just want to share some for him.Cao Yuwen and Cao Yuwu regained their strength, and began to watch Cao Yuan for Cao Fei every night, but it was not long-term, the family desperately needed a mistress.

Cao Yuwen's trip to Zhou Jie's house went very smoothly.Although he is 29 years old, he is handsome, has a gentle temper, and is honest but not dull. Although he is not a regular worker, he has a small workshop and can earn money. All in all, he is a good candidate.

What's more, Xu Le reminded him that the gift he bought was indeed in his heart. The old man was happy when he saw the two bottles of Moutai, and Mrs. Li kept sighing that it was slippery while holding the cashmere scarf.Therefore, the matter between the two of them was tacit.

Now, this is the situation in the family. No matter how fair the old lady Cao is, she still puts life first. She asked Cao Yuwen, "How are you and Zhou Jie doing? Get married. This family needs a woman to take care of it."

But the old lady also said, "Our family is now big and small. Once we marry in, it's a whole house. This is too wronged. A gold ring, a pair of gold earrings, and a washing machine. When she comes, don’t worry about the children. I’ll watch. All you need to do is prepare meals for the whole family, clean up the house, and make this home feel like a home. Wait. No matter how old Cao Yuan is, I can take care of the children and cook again, so I will let you split up and live alone."

Cao Yuwen knew that the gold ring and earrings were bought by his father for his mother.Because the old lady was reluctant to wear it, she didn't find it out during the years of sports, and it has been hidden as a treasure until now.Not to mention the entire family courtyard, this condition is relatively high in the urban area.

Therefore, although Cao Yuwen felt that it would be troublesome for Zhou Jie to marry in, he also had a point of view. During the date with Zhou Jie that day, he mentioned this matter and specifically talked about the family situation. He promised, "Xiaojie, I know I've wronged you so much now, but my condition is true. What I say is blank and powerless. I can only promise you with my heart that I will treat you well for the rest of my life. .”

Zhou Jie blushed at what he said, but she didn't nod in the end. She said awkwardly, "I have to discuss this matter with my family. I can't make the decision. Just listen to me."

Cao Yuwen nodded and went home to wait.On the third day, Zhou Jie called his class and said that he was asked to go home after dinner. Cao Yuwen knew that there was a reply, so he bought cigarettes and alcohol and walked to the door.

But this time, the same Moutai old man didn't even look at it, shook his pipe and said to him, "We as parents know what you said to Xiaojie. I also know, they are all sympathetic. But marriage has nothing to do with sympathy. There is also a bride price. Your family is kind, but we can’t marry a girl just because of this. Let me just say, you, we have no objection, your family, This is not possible. Our daughter is not saying that she can't bear this tiredness, but that she has never suffered this tiredness since she has grown up. She can't do it, and we don't want to. You should think about it."
