Chapter 62 Home Visit
When Sha Zhu came back, he was followed by two kids. Yu Zhiyuan took a look and thought, okay, the two kids know where the delicious food is and will go there.
Qiaoqiao didn’t need to be taken care of, Yu Zhiyuan just watched Wenwen eat, and he stretched out his little hands to take food from the small bowl and stuff it into his mouth.
In order to let the boy eat by himself, Yu Zhiyuan bought him a wooden bowl and a small wooden spoon.
Otherwise I don’t know how much would have been damaged.
While eating, he realized that his face was dirty, so he raised it and asked his father to wipe it. He was really nice. I took out a handkerchief from his pocket and wiped it for him. He leaned sideways, meaning to put it back to me.
Okay, you are the one who uses the most handkerchiefs in a day, and five are not enough. You will have a runny nose all day long.
I really gave birth to an ancestor for myself.
Qiaoqiao and Wenwen were finally full. They helped the siblings wash their hands and let Qiaoqiao take them home, and also took the handkerchiefs home to wash.
Only then can Yu Zhiyuan eat well.
“Brother Zhuzi, how about trying this wine? If it’s good, I’ll get some more when I have time.”
“I just drank it with Zhiqiang. It’s really good. Make more. I’ll also drink it during the New Year.”
“It’s not a festival, but you’re treating me to a meal. What’s the matter?”
“I’ve spared your family a stroller, so I’m going to treat you two brothers to a meal.”
“That’s all. My brother won’t ask any more questions. Just eat and drink.”
“Don’t worry, I have something to do. It’s the end of the year now, and I guess there’s a lot of work to do. Sha Mao is serving the old Buddha every day, so I don’t need anything.”
“Okay, I get it. Just tell me what you want in advance and I’ll prepare it for you. I think you’re really hardworking. Your dad made a lot of money that time.”
Sha Zhu shook his head and said, “Looking at your son, I know that my boy will have to spend a lot of money in the future. How can I not work hard to earn money?”
After Sha Zhu finished speaking, the three of them clinked their glasses and drank one.
“How about it, brother? Will we have the assessment again next year?”
“You have to take the test. If you don’t, my Wenwen won’t even be able to wear new pants.”
Yu Zhiyuan thought that he would be promoted to the next grade next year, but he might not be able to take the exam the year after.
If your salary doesn’t increase in ten years, you can’t raise it.
Early in the morning, Yu Zhiyuan was sleeping soundly. Qiaoqiao ran to Yu Zhiyuan’s bed and woke him up.
The three of us drank a little too much last night and went to bed a little late.
He was sleeping soundly this morning, what a poor child.
“It’s so early in the morning, can’t you let Dad sleep a little longer? What’s the matter? Why are you making a fuss? I won’t go to your grandpa.”
“Grandpa went out to the pigeon market. He said he wanted to see if there were any rare items. He wanted to buy some and make some big dumplings to eat.”
“What’s going on?” Yu Zhiyuan couldn’t sleep either. He could only get up and get dressed. He planned to send both children to his father-in-law’s house next summer. The constant quarrels gave him a headache.
“Go and have a look. Why is Wenwen’s poop black? Is she having a stomachache?”
“Oh, what do I care about you doing this all day long?” Yu Zhiyuan felt a little toothache.
“The poop is black, isn’t it serious?” Qiaoqiao asked puzzledly.
“My dear girl, you have pooped black before, but I didn’t let you see it.”
Yu Zhiyuan put on his clothes and followed Qiaoqiao out of the house. When he arrived at the back wall of the courtyard, he saw a small piece of black poop.
My son’s masterpiece.
Yu Zhiyuan pointed at the poop and said to Qiaoqiao, “Yesterday at your uncle He’s house, we had cabbage stewed with pig blood. The pig blood came out black after eating it. You ate it too. You’ll know if you look at your poop today. Go get a small shovel and throw your brother’s poop into the public toilet outside. What’s wrong with him? Can’t he just poop in the toilet?”
Qiaoqiao went to get the tools with a look of disbelief.
When I turned around, I saw Wenwen, the unfortunate child, lying on a stone bench and making snowballs.
Yu Zhiyuan shouted into the house, “Xuemei, Xuemei.”
“What’s the matter?”
“Take care of your son. He’s lying on a stone bench playing in the snow in such a cold day!”
Yang Xuemei, still wearing an apron and holding a rice spoon, came out and slapped Wenwen twice on the butt.
After beating Wenwen, before she knew what was going on, Yang Xuemei carried her into the house. Yu Zhiyuan laughed so hard, it seemed that he was not the only one who could carry a cotton coat by the neck.
After a while, I heard my mother-in-law’s voice: “What does a child know? How did he get started?”
I watched my father-in-law walk into the backyard carrying tofu in one hand and a small bamboo basket in the other.
I took the bamboo basket and looked inside. Are there loaches for sale today?
Looking at his son with tearful eyes, Yu Zhiyuan chuckled.
After having breakfast, I go to work.
After the inspection, he read a book in the conference room. Seeing that no one came to look for him, Yu Zhiyuan took his tool bag and went to sort out the waste parts.
During the lunch break, I used the machine tool to make a small cart for my mother-in-law to use when she goes out to buy things, so that she doesn’t have to carry things.
With the support of a big factory, we can do it if we can. We have to pay anyway, so we won’t take advantage of it.
After the workers finished their lunch, Yu Zhiyuan also packed up his things, took his lunch box and hurried to the canteen to eat.
He ate two large steamed buns with vegetable soup and went back to the workshop to drink tea.
The workshop director called everyone over.
“Notice, there will be a report meeting for heroes and models in front of the administration building at 1:00 p.m. this Saturday. No one can be absent, even if you are sick. Bring your own bench.”
If you sit outside on this day, you will be freezing cold.
It was almost time to get off work, so Yu Zhiyuan hurried to the second workshop to pick up his things and went straight to the welding workshop.
After the car was welded, I hurried home to show my courtesy to my mother-in-law.
Whistling as he entered the courtyard, Yan Bugui lifted the door curtain and came out.
“Zhiyuan, Qiaoqiao’s homeroom teacher wants to visit your home.”
Then, Yu Zhiyuan saw a girl wearing a red coat, about 160 cm tall, with long black hair, slightly fair skin, and a literary demeanor walking out.
“Hello, Comrade Yu, I am Ran Qiuye, Yu Qiaoqiao’s homeroom teacher.”
“Hello, hello! I am Qiaoqiao’s father.” Yu Zhiyuan pinched Ran Qiuye’s fingertips and shook them.
Ran Qiuye smiled slightly.
Yu Zhiyuan saw that his face looked constipated.
Yu Zhiyuan looked at it and thought to himself, “You wouldn’t shake hands with or touch the girl randomly, would you?”
“Teacher Ran, it’s cold in the courtyard. Why don’t you come to my house and sit down and talk.”
Yu Zhiyuan made a gesture of invitation and led Ran Qiuye through the Chuanhua Gate.
Yan Bugui and his son, what are you doing following us?
There was no choice but to ask the three of them to sit down after entering the room and pour them tea.
“Teacher Ran, why are you at my house? If you had told me earlier, I would have brought you here.” Qiaoqiao ran over and took Ran Qiuye’s hand, not forgetting to glance at the father and son of the Yan family while speaking.
“Have you prepared for your lessons?”
“I’m rehearsing now. Teacher Ran, let’s have dinner at our house. I’ll ask Uncle He to cook.”
It’s over, this little girl knows how to order people around.
Okay, the girl has spoken, so dad has to do it. Let Xuemei prepare.
“Teacher Ran, why are you here today?”
“Oh, it’s like this. During the afternoon break, Yu Qiaoqiao went to the bathroom and didn’t come back until class started. I thought something happened, so I ran to the classroom and asked my classmates, only to find out that she was in the bathroom.”
Ran Qiuye said this and took a sip of tea.
“I quickly ran to the toilet to look for her, and saw Qiaoqiao scratching with a branch. I sent her back to the classroom but didn’t dare to ask, so I came to visit her home to ask!”
When Yu Zhiyuan heard this, he wanted to spank Qiaoqiao, what an unlucky child.
Yu Zhiyuan had no choice but to tell Ran Qiuye everything that happened in the morning, and asked about Qiaoqiao’s academic progress.
