Chapter 101 Visiting relatives in the county
A woman came into view. The person in front of her had a gray face, sparse hair, and a pitiful appearance. Her eyes were blurred, her eyes were black and blue, her lips were chapped and peeled, and she looked like she was severely malnourished.
Wearing patched clothes and holding a broom in his hand, he looked very embarrassed.
While Qi Man was sizing up the woman, the woman was also sizing up Qi Man.
Qi Man was wearing an exquisite dark brown dress and a pair of brand-new leather shoes. Her unpainted face looked naturally beautiful. She also had a small pink bag on her body and a small black suitcase in her other hand. Very refined.
Only the dark bamboo baskets and vines behind me seemed out of place, a bit inconsistent.
The woman looked at Qi Man timidly and asked cautiously:
"who are you looking for?"
Qi Man came back to her senses, smiled slightly, and asked softly:
"Excuse me, is this Bai Tuhua's house?"
When the white earth flowers were mentioned, the woman's eyes became a little wary, her hand holding the broom tightened, and she asked tentatively:
"What do you want to do with Bai Tuhua?"
Qi Man's face did not change, and she still had a polite and gentle smile:
"I am Qi Man, the granddaughter of Qi Zhengguo. Please ask me to send you something."
Before coming here, I had already learned about Bai Tuhua's identity. She was not biologically related to Mr. Qi, but they had a good relationship. Bai Tuhua was a comrade of the original owner's parents, and they had a very close relationship.
After the original owner's parents passed away, Bai Tuhua has been secretly helping Mr. Qi. He will always think of Mr. Qi if he has any good things. Mr. Qi has long regarded Bai Tuhua as his own daughter, and often thinks of her. How are things going in the county?
Even after she got married and didn't see each other much, Bai Tuhua would try her best to get some good things for Mr. Qi to send back to Qingyun Village, and they always kept in touch.
Since he was a man of good character and had helped his grandfather, Qi Man naturally treated him as a relative.
Bai Tuhua's pupils shrank, looking at the fair-skinned little girl in front of her, she couldn't help but be a little surprised, and said in a dry tone:
"Are you Qi Man?"
"Yes." Qi Man nodded.
"Hey!" A smile appeared on Bai Tuhua's face, and she hurriedly called Qi Man in: "I'm Bai Tuhua, come on, come in and tell me if you need anything."
Qi Man followed Bai Tuhua into the yard.
The yard is also a small square and very narrow.
The sparrow is small, but it has all five internal organs.
There are some furniture that should be there. Although many things are old and old, they are still in good condition. There is also a stand in the yard with a lot of clothes hanging, both for adults and children.
Although it didn't look new, it was clean and tidy, fluttering in the wind. The only thing that stood out was a set of fully patched clothes and trousers on the edge.
It's not difficult to guess that it should be Bai Tuhua's.
Bai Tuhua put down the broom in her hand and called Qi Man into the house.
The living room is very small, with a small table placed in the center. Further inside, there is a long rectangular table with several thermos pots on it, red, green, and blue. It has a sense of age. There are also bottles and cans piled on top.
Bai Tuhua brought a glass of water to Qi Man. The cup had some gaps. She was afraid that Qi Man would dislike it. She nervously tightened the corners of her clothes with her hands and said in an embarrassed tone:
"What about that, Manman, Auntie's conditions are limited, please bear with me!"
I have long heard that Qi Man was raised abroad by her grandmother. She has received a higher education and is a beloved young lady.
It's really so unique and beautiful, but it makes Bai Tuhua feel a little embarrassed.
Qi Man lowered his eyes, glanced at the chipped water glass, picked it up without disdain and took a sip of water, then pushed the bamboo basket in front of Bai Tuhua:
"Grandpa asked me to bring this to you."
"Brother asked you to bring it to me?"
Bai Tuhua was puzzled, so she opened the layer of cloth on the bamboo basket and looked at the fresh vegetables, fruits, and some smoked bacon and sausages in the bamboo basket. She was flattered.
He hurriedly covered the cloth and quickly pushed it in front of Qi Man, with a somewhat complaining tone:
"Look at your grandpa, he always thinks of me when he has good things. He lives in poverty. My aunt is in need of everything in the city. You take the things back and give them to your grandpa."
In these days, bacon and sausages are rare and rare. The meat costs several yuan per pound, let alone so many pieces.
Qi Man comforted her: "Auntie, don't worry about grandpa eating well and gaining a lot of weight. This is wild boar meat that I bought some time ago. I couldn't finish it and made it into bacon and sausage. I'm here today. Firstly, I want to bring my grandpa to meet you and say hello to you. Secondly, grandpa wants you to go back to the village more often. Even if you are wronged at your in-laws’ house and your parents’ family doesn’t accept you, you can still go to grandpa.”
Bai Tuhua's birth was not a good one. Her parents favored sons over daughters. Fortunately, she managed to live up to her reputation and became a soldier in college. However, due to the oppression of her parents, she had to return to her hometown to get married.
Later, the life of my husband's family was unsatisfactory, and because the child had to be restrained here, it had been a long time since anyone had cared about him so much. For a moment, I was so moved that my eyes filled with tears. I couldn't hold it back and cried, with a choked voice:
"Hey, okay, I'll go back and take a look when I'm free."
"Auntie, please put this thing away and mend it."
With that said, Qi Man pushed the bamboo basket forward again.
This time Bai Tuhua did not refuse and put the things away.
While the two were chatting happily.
boom--
Suddenly there was a loud noise outside.
Bai Tuhuaxin was startled, the smile on her face disappeared, she hurriedly stood up from her seat, glanced at Qi Man worriedly, ran out in a hurry, helped the drunk man, and complained a little:
"Didn't you go to work today? Why do you smell of alcohol?"
"belch."
The drunk man burped and pushed Bai Tuhua away violently. Bai Tuhua stumbled and fell to the ground. The fall was a bit heavy, and her face was twisted in pain.
The drunk man's face was flushed, he staggered and pointed at the white soil flower in front of him, and said drunkenly:
"I've been fired. Are you happy now? I'm working hard outside to make money to support you and drink some wine!"
Bai Tuhua gritted her teeth and climbed up from the ground, explaining humbly: "I didn't mean that."
"That's not what you meant. What else could you mean? I'll feed you and clothe you, but I can't even say a few words to you, right? Is it because I haven't taught you a lesson in a few days? Are you feeling itchy?"
The drunk man was so drunk that he felt his eyes were in a trance. He shook his head violently and became more and more unhappy with the yellow-faced woman in front of him.
Qi Man looked at the two people who were arguing with each other coldly.
"I just care about you..."
"I bother!"
The drunk man spat on the ground and cursed.
"I see you are happy, right? I lost this job, and you are the happiest person."
As he spoke, he pulled Bai Tuhua's hair with brute force.
Bai Tuhua was forced to raise her head, crying in pain, forcing her to look at the drunkard.
