Stepmother: 163. Sudden death
Sanwa choked: "It's not easy for you and your mother to make money, I feel sorry for you both."
"I'll give you fifty yuan when you go to college, okay?" Song Zhaodi asked.
Sanwa opened her mouth to say yes, then thought about fifty yuan minus the fare for the car, minus the money for buying pen and ink, as if she could only buy a few packs of white rabbits, and weakly said: "Not good."
"If it's not good, just eat." Zhong Jianguo said.
Sanwa pursed her lips and stuffed the shrimp into her mouth.
Second baby wanted to laugh when he saw him like this, but was afraid of angering the third baby, so he took the opportunity to splash: "Mother, I want to make you a white dress."
"White?" Zhong Jianguo glanced at Song Zhaodi, "Your mother is not suitable. Your mother has dark skin and does not look good when you wear it."
Er Wa frowned: "Dad doesn't know how to make clothes, so don't pick it up so fast."
Zhong Jianguo choked and asked in disbelief: "You said I don't understand?"
"You really don't understand." Song Zhaodi said, "Those who are not too fat look good in white clothes."
Zhong Jianguo stared at her: "You—"
"Eat." Song Zhaodi put a shrimp in his mouth, "I don't say anything, the teacher never taught you?"
Sanwa looked at his father and then at his mother: "Teacher Song again."
"Sanwazi, just shut up if you don't want to be beaten." Song Zhaodi reminded him, "People's patience is limited. A bad tempered person like your father is on the verge of breaking out."
Sanwa still remembered that his dad kicked his arrogant eldest brother down, and quickly turned to Erwa: "Second brother, can I get you a crab?"
"Thank you, I want to eat fish." Erwa annoyed him and gave him no face.
Sanwa snorted: "Zhengang, do you want it?"
"This is already the third one." Zhen Gang shook the crab in his hand, "You eat it yourself, I have to drink fish soup."
Sanwa's face changed slightly: "Don't come to me in the future."
"With our father and mother here, we can't ask you for anything." Erwa put a piece of fish in his own bowl, and another piece for Song Zhaodi and Zhong Jianguo.
Zhong Jianguo took a bite of the fish and couldn't help but say, "It's still better to eat sea bass when stewed."
"The steamed sea bass is also delicious." Song Zhaodi said, "It's a pity that one is enough for us."
Zhong Jianguo stopped: "What about the four?"
"Wrap it in batter and fry it for a few days." Song Zhaodi said, "Eat fish head at night. Fish head is not easy to fry."
Zhong Jianguo: "You can do whatever you want. I passed the school when I came today. New desks and new books have arrived. The principal should notify you tomorrow to get new textbooks."
"I'll go to the school tomorrow to see." Song Zhaodi said, "Our family's rice is running out. You go to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy a bag of rice and some miscellaneous grains, and I'll make eight-treasure porridge for you."
Zhenzhen just wondered: "Teacher, tell Dawa, they're gone, let's make delicious food every day, isn't it a joke?"
"Of course not." Zhong Jianguo said, "If your brothers call home, you are not allowed to tell them."
Zhengang swallowed: "Not so good?"
"Very good." Zhong Jianguo said, "When you go to college, there will be only Mr. Song and I at home. We make scallion pancakes and egg fried rice every day."
The second baby and the third baby looked at Zhong Jianguo at the same time.
Zhong Jianguo asked: "Do you have any opinions?"
"Parents like you and my mother can't find a second pair in the world." Sanwa glared at the two of them angrily, "I'll tell him when I get a call from my eldest brother."
Zhong Jianguo nodded: "Okay. But I have to remind you that the big baby may think you are deliberately showing off."
Sanwa was stunned, obviously not expecting this possibility.
"Stop teasing him." Song Zhaodi said, "Your brothers know that I never lie." Put down the dishes, go out to wash hands, and come back slumped on the chair, "I ate a bit too much today, so I can't eat it at night. So much."
Zhong Jianguo: "I will accompany you out to digest food at night."
"I'm pretty much with you." Song Zhaodi said, "You guys eat slowly, I'll squint for a while."
Zhong Jianguo: "The chair is a man, go upstairs to sleep."
Song Zhaodi waved her hand: "It's too hot upstairs. If you can't finish eating, put it under the fan and eat it after two hours." Suddenly, he thought, "Sanwazi, come back and ask your little brothers to come to our house to play, you guys can come together. eat."
"They dare not come when you are at home." Sanwa said, "Even if you come with me, they will not dare to eat our food."
Song Zhaodi said: "Then I will go to Shen's house to see Mrs. Shen and chat with her for a while."
"How can my mother chat with anyone." Erwa admires her, "If only I could be as good as you."
Zhong Jianguo: "Do what you like, don't talk about what you are interested in. You can also be like your mother, young and old."
Song Zhaodi smiled: "Master Zhong is getting to know me more and more."
"Of course." Zhong Jianguo said, "We've been married for eleven years. One-third of your life is longer than the time you've been with your parents."
Song Zhaodi glanced at him: "You're fat and you're panting."
"Just tell the truth." After drinking the soup, Zhong Jianguo stood up to loosen his belt, sat down and squeezed another crab.
Song Zhaodi couldn't help but open her eyes: "If you can't eat it, don't eat it."
"It's okay." Zhong Jianguo said, "Eighty full."
Song Zhaodi saw a pile of crab shells and shrimp shells in front of him: "You are not good, you are very good!"
"Mr. Song is getting to know me better." Zhong Jianguo gave her a meaningful look.
Song Zhaodi rolled her eyes: "You three can't eat any more. We'll make crabs in a few days."
Sanwa immediately placed the remaining half of the crab in front of Zhong Jianguo. Zhong Jianguo raised his head, and Sanwa quickly explained, "I didn't eat, Dad."
"I really love you, Lao Tzu." Zhong Jianguo glanced at him, "It looks like your brother is gone, you want to take his class."
Zhengang didn't understand: "What shift?"
"Being beaten!" Song Zhaodi closed her eyes and spit out two words lightly.
Zhengang was very happy, and found that Sanwa's face was not quite right, so he didn't dare to grin, he lowered his head and pursed his lips and snickered.
Seeing Zhengang and Erwa laughing at him, Sanwa wanted to snort, but he couldn't figure out if his dad really wanted to beat him, so he simply ran outside to wash his hands.
The next day at ten o'clock in the morning, Song Zhaodi came back from school and saw that Zhengang was still reading, the third child was doing the questions, and the second child was drawing. meal."
"Mother, uncle just called." Erwa put down the pen, got up and stretched, "Grandma is dead."
Song Zhaodi turned to him suddenly: "Who?"
"It's your cousin." Erwa said, "Uncle said that his face changed when he found out this morning."
Song Zhaodi put the book on the table, pulled up a chair and sat down, twisting her arm, feeling the pain before asking, "Did your uncle tell her what disease she had?"
"No." Erwa said, "Uncle asked if we can go back?"
Song Zhaodi nodded: "We have to go back. If we don't go back, this matter will be used by others to attack your dad. However, your dad doesn't need to go back."
"Because Dad is the teacher?" Erwa asked.
Song Zhaodi shook her head slightly: "Because your grandmother is not authentic, your father told us to go back to her, and it's already very good for her. We will still live in a guest house by then."
"Going in the afternoon?" Erwa asked.
Song Zhaodi said "um": "Zhengang is going too. Before it's hot, you go upstairs and pack your clothes. I'll call your dad."
Song Zhaodi hung up the phone here, Zhong Jianguo drove back, and when he got home, he asked, "Is it true? Don't be joking. I called my eldest brother a few days ago, but he didn't mention her."
"It's probably an emergency." Zhao Yin's death was too sudden, and Song Zhaodi felt a little unreal, but the call was from Zhong Weiguo, and this matter could not be left off, "Aunt Liu is fine at home, I'll call her and ask her Help us to ask what's going on, sister-in-law?"
Zhong Jianguo: "No. It doesn't matter if she has an emergency, or if she thinks it's boring to drink rat poison to commit suicide like my dad, it has nothing to do with us. You bring a few children over and send her away and come back."
"Then you remember to call Dawa and talk to him, so that he doesn't know and makes mistakes later." Song Zhaodi said.
"Is Mr. Song at home?"
Song Zhaodi frowned.
"Do you know who it is?" Zhong Jianguo asked curiously.
Song Zhaodi pointed to the east: "It is estimated that Li Lanying asked around and found that my English is the best in the whole island, and then asked me to teach her daughter English." After speaking, she paused, "I still want to take the test if my English is not good. English major, I really don't know what to think."
"Let's go out and have a look." Zhong Jianguo said, "Anyway, you have to go to Binhai in the afternoon, there is a ready-made reason."
Song Zhaodi sighed: "I don't like Sun Wanru who can't get out of the room, and I don't like people who are too familiar."
"How can everyone be as knowledgeable and knowledgeable as you are." Zhong Jianguo pushed her, "I'll cook the rice, you cook."
Song Zhaodi left the living room, smiled and said to the door: "At home, come in."
Li Lanying came in: "Is Mr. Song busy?"
"I'm very busy." Song Zhaodi said without waiting for her to speak, "I have to leave after dinner."
Li Lanying is curious: "Where to go?"
"Old Zhong's stepmother passed away, we have to rush to Binhai overnight."
Li Lanying suddenly forgot her purpose: "Master Zhong is going back too?"
"He won't go back. We just received a call, he didn't have time to arrange it, and he didn't ask for leave from above. When he made arrangements, his stepmother was cremated." Song Zhaodi said, "The weather is hot, and the body cannot be left for long. By the way, what's the matter with me?"
Li Lanying: "It's not a big deal, I just want to ask our second girl to learn English with you. I didn't expect it to be so unfortunate."
"It's very unfortunate." Song Zhaodi said, "When I get back, I have to prepare lessons, and I also bring the third grade and the first two classes. Why not ask her to go to class with the first grade students?"
Li Lanying shook her head: "No, no, she wants to try it next year."
"Then we can only go to Yongcheng." Song Zhaodi said, "Only there are high school seniors over there."
Li Lanying thinks about it: "It can only be like this."
"Then I'm going to cook." Song Zhaodi said, "I haven't packed my clothes yet."
Li Lanying nodded and turned to go home.
Song Zhaodi went into the house and saw Zhong Jianguo sitting in the living room at the door: "Did you hear that?"
"Yes." Zhong Jianguo bought rice and didn't see Song Zhaodi come in. He planned to "rescue" her, but when he heard the word "Yongcheng", he felt that she was about to send people away and didn't go out, "Let's go to "rescue" her. These neighbors came and went, and I realized that people like Teacher Song are simply one in a million."
