Time flew by.
In the blink of an eye, more than a month had passed.
Recently, the courtyard had been relatively peaceful.
There were many children setting off firecrackers on the street.
The children took apart the small hanging whips and placed the incense sticks one by one.
"Pa! Pa!"
"Pa!"
The sound of firecrackers rose and fell in the alley.
"Brother, today is the New Year. They all have firecrackers to play with. I want to play too.”
"I want to fry cow dung."
At the entrance of the courtyard, Little Dang looked at the child who was setting off firecrackers next to him and said to the stick with some envy.
"Let alone the New Year, even if it's the New Year, we don't have the money to set off firecrackers.”
The meme sighed.
He was a boy, how could he not want to set off firecrackers?
Qin Huairu's family couldn't even afford to eat cornbread, let alone buy firecrackers.
"It's all that Lin Xuan's fault. Don't let me seize the opportunity, or I'll definitely kill him.”
The stick said through gritted teeth.
Just as the stick was cursing softly, Lin Xuan's voice suddenly sounded from behind.
"Make way. Don't block the way."
Lin Xuan pushed his bicycle out of the courtyard.
There was half a bag of noodles tied to the back seat of the car. That was white noodles, not stick noodles!
Next to him was Tuan Tuan, who was wearing a new floral outfit.
There was a chicken tied to the left handle of the car, and a basket of eggs hung from the right handle.
There was a large piece of meat on the egg frame, at least three to four pounds.
The stick guy swallowed his saliva, his eyes red.
Every new year, some people would be happy while others would be sad.
As for people like the stick meme who didn't have money, they could only envy them.
The stick raised his arm and wiped his saliva with his sleeve.
"Little Dang, you and Huai Hua stay here to play first. I'll go back for a while.”
The stick terrier ran home and started shouting before he even entered the house.
"Mom, Mom, I just saw Lin Xuan. He brought back a lot of good things.”
He pushed the door open.
Qin Huairu was sitting beside the cooking pot with a worried expression, using a needle and thread to mend her clothes.
"What good stuff?"
"Good food."
"Mom, that Lin Xuan's family is really rich." Do you know what you brought?"
"He was carrying a chicken in his left hand and a basket of eggs in his right. There was even a large piece of meat on top of it.”
"Lin Xuan still has half a bag of white flour on his bicycle. It's at least ten catties.”
Qin Huairu was envious in her heart, but she said coldly," That's still his family. What does it have to do with us?"”
"Even if we get half of it, it's enough for us to eat until the new year.”
"Go to their house and ask for some."
The stick meme said excitedly.
Jia Zhangshi's voice also came from the kang in the inner room.
"The meme is right. For the sake of the child's food, you can't be shameless. It's your fault for not being capable as a mother.”
Qin Huairu stopped sewing. She really could not bring herself to go to Lin Xuan's house.
"Hey, I'm talking to you, do you hear me?”
Jia Zhang-shi's voice was already somewhat displeased.
"I'm not going."
Qin Huairu rejected him directly.
"Useless thing, you're a widow, how much can your face be worth?”
"Besides, your reputation has long been ruined by the things you've done.”
Whoosh!
Qin Huairu suddenly slammed the table and stood up.
"What are you doing? You didn't let anyone talk about what you did?”
Jia Zhang-shi wasn't afraid of her at all. Instead, her voice grew louder.
Qin Huairu couldn't take it anymore. She pushed the door open and walked out.
Coincidentally, he saw Shazhu coming back with a lunchbox.
Seeing that Silly Zhu had already walked past her and was about to head home, Qin Huiru hurriedly called out to him.
"Silly Zhu, wait."
Silly Zhu turned around and said.
"What's wrong, Sister Qin?"
"Isn't it going to be the new year soon? Our family is so sick that we can't squeeze out any food.”
"See if you have any more.”
Silly Zhu kept the lunchbox in his hand. That was his own dinner tonight.
During this period of time, he had already spent quite a lot of money on Qin Huairu. He was almost living off his wife's savings.
"Sister Qin, my life isn't any better now. Why don't you go and ask First Uncle?”
After saying that, Silly Zhu felt embarrassed and turned around to walk home.
Qin Huairu looked at Lin Xuanjia's tightly shut courtyard door and sighed. She could only give up and walk home.
