Chapter 663 Ideal and Reality
He Yuzhu had not expected this situation. It was so messy and completely unlike his previous life.
After he came up with that bad idea, he completely forgot about it.
With Sister Shu Miao's intelligence, there is no way she would be led astray by Luo Qiaoyun just for that little bit of money.
Think about it, as the saying goes, distant relatives cannot separate close ones. Guo Shumiao was able to solve the complicated situation of the Guo family.
Although the Guo family has moved to the city now and the eldest son of the Guo family has taken over Lao Guo's job, Guo Lei can also justifiably ignore the eldest son.
The Guo family wanted to take care of it, but they had no money. The little pension that Guo had was barely enough for the couple's living, after all, pensions were castrated!
Even if they favor the eldest son, they don't have the nerve to ask the younger son for money to subsidize the eldest son.
With Guo Shumiao, the "little traitor", around, the old couple of the Guo family can't even pretend to be poor.
Now the eldest brother is living the city life he wanted, but he finds that it is not at all what they imagined.
Oil, salt, sauce and vinegar all consumed the boss's salary.
He had never lived a day like the life that the eldest brother of the Guo family dreamed of, wearing Dacron, riding a 28-bar bicycle, wearing loose pockets, and loosening his belt when meeting people.
This is also the first image that villagers have of "capable people". The first three are easy to understand: clothes, bicycles, and cigarettes, which are all luxuries rarely seen in the countryside today.
When I see people loosening their belts, I don’t know who started this habit.
After all, when those people go to the countryside, they are bound to eat and drink to their heart's content, so it is normal to adjust the buckle of their belt frequently.
Now the eldest brother has become weak and has been unwilling to go back to the countryside since he started working.
I really can't afford to go back. When I return to the village, I should show some appreciation to my elders, right?
The younger generation called him to show their appreciation, right?
Should we show some appreciation to our daughter-in-law’s family?
With his salary of more than 20 yuan, after paying the expenses for a family of three, there is hardly any surplus left.
The eldest son of the Guo family took on the job himself, so his wife and son still have rural household registration and no rations, and have to go to the pigeon market every month to buy expensive grain.
The key point is that the neighbors around them also know what kind of people they are and don’t pay any attention to them at all.
For example, when other people's families are in trouble, they can borrow from their neighbors.
The couple had no place to borrow money.
It’s not as good as before when I was in the countryside, with the subsidy from my second child every month.
This is life. What you have always prayed for may not necessarily be the life that suits you.
……
He Yuzhu's posture was very strange now. He was bent over, holding his eldest daughter in his arms like a cannonball.
He Yuan held a lit incense stick in her hand and blew it against her lips, sparks flickering.
He Yuan held the incense stick and trembled as she touched the fuse in front of her.
Before it was lit, little Yuanyuan started screaming, and He Yuzhu quickly picked up his daughter and ran to the back.
After running to a safe place, He Yuzhu put the baby down and covered his daughter's ears in one go, but he did not hear the sound of firecrackers going off.
Looking again, there is no sign of fire.
He Yuzhu looked down at his daughter and saw the curly-haired girl, puffing up her face and glaring at him angrily.
He Yuzhu smiled awkwardly and said, "Girl, what do you call it if you don't light it?"
"I was just about to light it, and you ran away!" He Yuan said righteously.
It’s New Year’s Eve, and it’s time for the He family to set off firecrackers.
He Yuan's words explained what it meant to be both a novice and a playful person.
It was easy to watch He Yuzhu setting off firecrackers, especially the double-shot firecracker. He Yuzhu held it in his hand and lit it at first.
"Boom, snap!"
It was quite imposing, but of course it was suppressed by Liu Ting. Later, He Yuzhu put it on the ground and lit it. As a result, the two aunts at home tried it with incense sticks. They were all scared and jumped, but they looked excited.
So He Yuan also wanted to try it. She wanted to play, but she couldn't run fast, so He Yuzhu had to hold her in his arms and go to click.
As for the curly hair on He Yuan's head, Yu Shui saw other girls with beautiful permed hair outside, but he didn't dare to try it himself, so he used He Yuan as a test subject.
Liu Ting was busy with the tongs for the whole morning and finally got her hair into big waves.
The little girl is so vain!
When you wake up every day, you don’t have to be like the Lion King anymore, letting your hair grow freely.
People are still quite tolerant these days, at least towards children.
For example, when He Yuan wears a little skirt in the summer and a hair accessory on her head, people will just praise her for being cute, and no one will take these things seriously with the child.
It is everyone’s right to pursue a beautiful life within limited living conditions.
He Yuzhu made three rules with his daughter, which were that she was not allowed to scream and could only be told to run away if she was set on fire.
Then the father and daughter tried again.
This time it finally ignited.
"Boom, snap!"
When the double bombs went off into the air, the little girl's face turned red with excitement. She jumped and shouted, "Ahhh, Dad, I set them off. Boom, bang..."
The little girl imitated the sound of firecrackers and showed off to the adults at home.
For her, it was a great accomplishment.
After the little girl's passion, she pulled He Yuzhu's trouser leg and said, "Daddy, put one more in."
At this time, there are always spoilers.
Liu Ting said seriously: "Okay, throw away the incense sticks.
Wash up and get ready for bed, play with fire, and be careful not to wet the bed.
If you wet the bed tonight, I won’t wash your sheets tomorrow. ..."
The strange thing is that it seems that every child never had a full time in his childhood.
Seeing his daughter's aggrieved face, He Yuzhu could not help but comfort her in her ear: "After the New Year's greetings tomorrow, Dad will take you to set off small firecrackers.
Daddy will buy you a bunch of them, and then we can go out and set them off secretly without letting Mom know."
He Yuzhu's voice was not small, so Liu Ting next to him would definitely be able to hear it.
But Liu Ting held back her smile and continued to play the role of her strict mother.
For He Yuan, her father at this time is the best father.
Early the next morning, as there was no New Year's greetings on the first day of the new year, the family of four slept in for a rare night.
As for the two little ones, they are just toys now and have no right to choose for themselves.
He Yuzhu let off a small door-opening whip, heralding a prosperous new year, and then he woke up the little girl who had gone crazy the night before.
As expected, the little girl wet the bed.
Fortunately, Liu Ting was well prepared and prepared a urine cocoon for her little bed, otherwise the little girl would really have flooded the Golden Mountain.
It is definitely a far-fetched argument. According to the little girl, if Liu Ting didn't prepare a urine cocoon for her, she would definitely not urinate.
She urinated just because Liu Ting prepared it.
The little girl spoke arrogantly, as if Liu Ting was the one who was unreasonable.
But when Liu Ting came out, she didn't get angry. The little girl immediately covered her mouth.
He Yuzhu whispered a few words in his daughter's ear, and the little girl's eyes lit up. She immediately ran into Yushui's room, knelt down on Yushui's cloth shoes, and said loudly, regardless of whether Yushui was asleep or not, "Happy New Year, Auntie, and may you make a fortune. Give me the red envelope!"
"Ah?" Yu Shui sat on the bed, looking confused.
