Chapter 68: Letter from Beijing
Liu Xiangqian immediately wanted to turn around and go back, but was stopped by Liu Cong.
"Dad, what excuse are we using now to take care of people's requests? The money is not warm when we get it! Let's talk about it in a few days!" The pain in his hand made Liu Cong a little more rational, knowing that Hua Zhao was not easy to mess with.
His dad was right, no matter how much he provokes Hua Zhao, his legs are likely to be broken.
"You know the truth, why did you forget it when it was your turn?" Liu Cong said with disgust, "I really want to be crazy about my daughter-in-law!"
"Fuck you XXX!" Liu Qiang took off the sole of his shoe and pulled it towards him, and Liu Cong ran away.
That's all for now. Come back next time when you think of an excuse.
......
The days calmed down again. Hua Zhao took Daqin, Xiaoqin, Dawei and Xiaowei up the mountain to pick mushrooms every morning. The harvest would still be distributed to each person by 1/10, and she had already agreed that they would pay their own tuition and pocket money in the future. , that's all, she doesn't give it anymore.
Everyone was happy and had no complaints because they knew the other kids weren't treated like that at all!
Whose children can share their share of the money they make by helping the family work? One is completely impossible, one is possible.
My sister has given them a lot.
Hua Zhao also likes these children a little. He is content, grateful, and diligent. This is a good boy.
In the afternoon, she taught them to study.
Of course, on the bright side, she is learning and selling now. She claimed that she learned from her grandfather last night, and she will teach them the next day.
Whether it was math or Chinese, Dawei and Xiaowei found that he couldn't compare to this older sister, who was said to have only studied for 3 months, and the remaining pride disappeared instantly.
"That's all for this semester, wait until September 1st, you can go to school again, both big and small," Hua Zhao said.
Because it is already July, and the final exam will be held in elementary school in a few days, she is afraid that Dawei and Xiaowei will also be counted down here, which will damage their confidence.
"Can we go to school too?" Daqin and Xiaoqin were all excited.
"Why not? Men and women are equal, and women hold up half the sky." Hua Zhao said.
As for Xiaoqin's lack of age, it's not a problem. Today's schools allow older brothers and sisters to bring younger siblings to school, as long as those children are not naughty.
Suddenly, there was a series of bicycle bells in the distance, and Hua Zhao's eyes lit up immediately. This date should be the postman!
Sure enough, a dark green figure appeared on the path and stopped in front of Hua Zhao's house.
Hua Zhao walked over happily like a bird.
"Hua Qiang, is Hua Qiang at home? I have your letter!" the postman shouted
Hua Zhao's footsteps stopped. In the past, the postman always called Hua Zhao. Whoever was the recipient would call him, and write it to Grandpa? Who is it?
The postman turned his head and saw Hua Zhao. He knew Hua Zhao and knew her situation. She had a man who was a soldier and a grandfather who was a veteran.
"I don't have your letter today. It was sent to your grandfather from the capital." Seeing the disappointment on Hua Zhao's face, the postman comforted: "Don't worry, there will be a letter from you tomorrow and the day after tomorrow."
It was really unbearable that such a beautiful face showed a disappointed expression.
"It's okay." Hua Zhao laughed: "Give me the letter, my grandfather is sleeping in the house at this point."
"Okay." The postman delivered the letter and rode away.
Hua Zhao looked at the address on the envelope. In a certain district of the capital, she probably guessed who wrote it.
Grandpa has sons and daughters in the capital. Wang Meng also said that they want grandpa to go back. Now, is this finally taking action?
Hua Qiang had been woken up and walked out. When he saw the letter in Hua Zhao's hand, he immediately smiled: "Xiao Ye has sent a letter again? Let's see if you came up with the child's name this time?"
Hua Zhao had asked Ye Shen to name the child before, but Ye Shen replied that he had not thought about it and had to think again.
There have been several letters back and forth, so it's time to think about it, right?
"No, this is a letter from the capital, for you." Hua Zhao said.
Hua Qiang's smile disappeared immediately.
"Grandpa, can I read it?" Hua Zhao raised the letter in his hand with a curious look on his face.
Hua Qiang couldn't refuse this small expression.
Sometimes he is in a trance, has he changed his granddaughter? Now this cute girl like a kitten, is it really his black bear-like granddaughter?
But he was only in a trance. He knew best how his granddaughter changed from a black bear to a kitten.
I only eat a small bowl of rice for one meal, and I even eat vegetables without food at night. I still climb mountains every day, work every day, grow bean sprouts, sell bean sprouts, pick mushrooms, get up early in the morning and go to the dark, and feel so tired that I stink... but I have suffered a lot. , but not thin.
The granddaughter is sensible, and there are some things that should be told to her.
"Come, come in with me." Hua Qiang said.
Hua Zhao followed behind him, intending to listen to the story. Just listening to Wang Meng's words before, she knew it was a big show, and now she can finally listen to the details.
In the days without the Internet, she also became bored and loved to gossip~
The grandfather and grandson sat on the kang, and Hua Qiang tapped the letter in her hand: "Open it and see what's going on."
He didn't even want to see it in person, what happened back then really made him sad.
Hua Zhao opened.
"Father, let's say goodbye for ten years, please forgive your son's unfilial piety, and forgive your son's helpless actions back then. It is really forced by the situation, for the sake of the overall situation..."
This first sentence made Hua Zhao unhappy. He did not admit his mistake when he came up, but directly asked for forgiveness. There was a tone between the lines that he had difficulties and should be forgiven.
After so many years, are you still aggrieved? And troubles?
Hua Zhao hurriedly read it, and it was almost as she imagined. Hua Qiang's sons and daughters begged for peace and asked him to go home. The reason was that he did something wrong in the past, and now they heard that he was not in good health. They wanted to repair their relationship and do their filial piety.
It's all for his sake anyway.
"Master, they asked you to go to the capital and stay at their house, are you going?" Hua Zhao concluded.
"Do you know who they are?" Hua Qiang was a little surprised by her calmness.
"Uncle Wang said a few words to me before." Hua Zhao said in a few words what he knew.
Hua Qiang nodded, liking this granddaughter more, Wang Meng asked her to say good things to that person, but she didn't mention a word, didn't bother him, it really was his granddaughter, and it didn't hurt in vain.
"At the end of the letter, who signed the letter?" Hua Qiang asked.
Hua Zhao glanced at it: "Hua Baoguo."
"Heh." Hua Qiang sneered suddenly, "Shouldn't it be Qi Baoguo? He has already changed his surname to Qi, and he must still be surnamed Qi now. When he wrote to me, he knew his surname was Hua."
Hua Zhao stared, she didn't know that there was another surname change, it seemed that the trouble back then was really too much.
Since Hua Zhao knew about his remarriage and remarried, Hua Qiang was too embarrassed to say: "That's right, when your grandmother was killed by the enemy, I left your father and went to serve in the army. Introduced by the old leader, he married his daughter..."
As a result, his son-in-law was disobedient, and he didn't point out where to fight as the Qi family imagined, so he was a bit tasteless. His wife's attitude toward him was not so good, and he had been lukewarm in those years.
Later, when he caught up with the sensitivity, he had a fundamental conflict with his brother-in-law again. They simply did not do it again and again, forced his children to break away from him, took the initiative to report him, and wanted to bring him down.
If it weren't for his connections, if he didn't get out early, and he was clean, how could he have any blessings now? He might have died long ago, or worked on some farm.
Their relationship was long overdue, if it wasn't for his bloodline's sake, it would be an exaggeration to say that they were enemies.
