MTL - Transmigrate to the ’80s to Be a Stepmother-Chapter 45
Zhang Cui was still swearing outside, but the Lu family was bustling, and they gathered around a table to eat.
The children did not run away after eating and drinking. Instead, they helped Qin Shi with work, sweeping the yard, breaking coal into small pieces and putting them in sacks, playing with twins, and watering the vegetable fields...
In fact, I have done a lot for Qin Shi, they are all sensible children, and they don't eat and drink for nothing.
Qin Shi watched this group of children jumping around carefree, feeling their youthful vigor, and her mood improved accordingly. So she washed and cut the big pumpkin, steamed it, mixed it with eggs, flour and sugar, and baked sweet pumpkin pie.
The children stayed at Lu's house after eating the pumpkin pie, looking for work if they had no work, and each and every one of them wished to become children of the Lu family, eating delicious food and drinking spicy food every day.
At night, Gu Qinghai drove out the friends who still wanted to eat. When they got home, they found that their parents knew that there was nothing in the house, and they were arrested and questioned again.
In the end, the parents knew the cause and effect, and immediately grabbed them and beat them up.
"There is no food at home! Going to other people's houses to eat every day? Ah!"
"It's fine once or twice. You go again and again. It's hard for people who celebrate the Chinese New Year to say nothing. Are you still motivated?"
"I said yesterday that I didn't say that I was not allowed to go again!"
"Little bastard, you ate it before the old lady gave someone a gift, and now you eat it again! You are reincarnated from a glutton!"
"Go again! Break your leg!!"
The howling of ghosts and wolves came from every house again.
Gan Quan and Wang Mingyuan, the only ones who were not beaten, were also reprimanded, and their parents strictly prohibited them from going to Gu Qinghai's house to eat and drink.
The next day, the parents of the children who came to Cengfan came to the Lu family's door with many gifts.
Qin Shi greeted them with a smile, accepted the things without being polite, and then took out various biscuits and scented tea that she baked to entertain them. The children's mothers tasted the food, and only then did they know why the children came to eat and drink so shamelessly.
After chatting, they were surprised to find that Poet Qin was quite nice and not as arrogant as the rumors said, so they increased the number of visits to Lu's house, and they gradually became closer.
Qin Shi, who has made a few more friends, has also received several verbal reservations. They will ask Qin Shi to make clothes after the New Year, and wear them in the spring.
Originally, Qin Shi wanted to make a fortune by making scarves, but she didn't expect that the plan could not keep up with the changes. Song Sinuo went to other places, and Mo Ling and her were also busy, so she had to give up.
The few woven by Qin Shi and Aunt Zhao were worn around the necks of his family.
The days passed by, and the New Year's Eve will come soon.
After breakfast, Qin Shi took the children and made dumplings with Lu Zetian. There were two kinds of vegetables and meat, and they were filled with three big lids.
The weather is cold, and the dumplings that can't be eaten can be hung outside in bags, and they can be frozen into hard lumps in a few hours. If you want to eat them later, you can take them back and cook them, which is very convenient.
After eating dumplings at noon, the children stopped going out and stayed at home to help Qin Shi with work and prepare side dishes for the evening.
Gu Qinghai was really able to help with work, but twins could only help with washing dishes, moving things, and running errands.
Qin Shi didn't dislike them either, and specially ordered them to do some things. It was quite interesting to see them busy around.
Lu Zetian had a three-day holiday for Chinese New Year, and he didn't go to the army until the second day of the first lunar month. He is also a person who can't take time off, so he works non-stop at home.
It was their help that kept Qin Shi from being exhausted. She prepared five dishes, one soup and one snack, and cooked some chicken paste for the briquettes.
The whole family had a great meal together.
This year's New Year's Eve dinner left a very deep impression on Lu Zetian and the three children, and they never forgot it until they were old.
I can't forget the rich and delicious chicken, duck, fish and vegetables that day, the sweet and crispy dessert, the little black cat who ate with a silly face, and the gentle and smiling Qin Shi...
These are all fond memories in their memory.
After the New Year's Eve dinner, Qin Shi and Lu Zetian took the children to play, and the children who boasted that they wanted to watch the night with the adults couldn't open their eyes when they were sleepy after ten o'clock, and began to doze off.
Qin and Shi took off their clothes lightly, put them in bed, and quietly exited the big bedroom together, not disturbing them anymore.
The stove in the living room was still burning, Qin Shi poked it with the tongs to make the fire burn hotter, then brewed two cups of hawthorn tea, and chatted with Lu Zetian on the sofa.
After a while, Qin Shi gave Lu Zetian a year-end summary report, and said that he would take good care of the children in the new year, and thanked him for his cooperation and support Yunyun.
Lu Zetian was originally in a very happy mood, but she was upset by this. He sighed helplessly in his heart, and said, "Actually, you don't have to be so... business-like. I thought our relationship was not so strange anymore."
Qin Shi raised her eyes to look at Lu Zetian, "Friends have to settle accounts clearly when it comes to business."
Lu Zetian was silent for a few seconds before he said, "Okay, I understand."
Seeing what he said, Qin Shi smiled, "The interior design drawing is ready, I'll show it to you."
Lu Zetian looked at her back, couldn't help but raised his hand and rubbed his forehead, and then he realized that he fell in love with Qin Shi, but she didn't mean it that way.
Even... some can't avoid it.
Lu Zetian thought about the scene when he met Qin Shi for the first time, and couldn't help sighing. Is this self-inflicted?
If they hadn't signed the contract, wouldn't things have been so complicated? He knew that Qin Shi was not interested in him, so he didn't dare to break the paper of this relationship now.
But if there was no such contract at that time, it would be impossible for me and Qin Shi to be together, and I wouldn't like her, right?
Every cause has its fruit... Lu Zetian could only sigh silently, slowly planning for the future in his heart. He still has time, and he hopes that within the next two years, he can melt Qin Shi and win the hearts of beauties.
Lu Zetian's eyes gradually became darker, like a black night.
"Click."
Qin Shi came out of her bedroom, and she happily sat down next to Lu Zetian with the drawings and introduced them to him one by one.
Lu Zetian stopped thinking about it, and listened to Qin Shi's introduction to look at the drawings, but his eyes always fell on Qin Shi, and he couldn't control it.
Qin Shi introduced it for a long time, looked at Lu Zetian expectantly, and asked, "What do you think?"
Lu Zetian smiled slightly: "Very good, some designs are very eye-catching."
He didn't expect Qin Shi to know a lot about furniture.
Qin Shi: "Then do you think the children will like it?"
Lu Zetian nodded: "Of course."
"It's almost a big project to demolish all the walls and rebuild the layout." Qin Shi was a little distressed, "Where will we live then?"
Lu Zetian thought about it for a long time, and said, "Otherwise, if we are ready in the next few days, we can take the children back to our hometown for the New Year, and come back after the house is redecorated."
Qin Shi was startled, "Huh?"
She really wanted to rebuild the house quickly, but she didn't expect that Lu Zetian was more anxious than herself, and actually said that she would do it in a few days.
Seeing her staring eyes in disbelief, Lu Zetian raised the corners of his mouth upwards, "It's just a surprise for my parents."
Qin Shi patted her chest to ease her mood, and then asked very excitedly: "Can you ask for leave?"
Lu Zetian nodded, "I'm fine in the first month of the year, and I haven't had a good rest for several years. It's okay to ask for a leave."
He said again: "Just take this opportunity to accompany parents and children." Of course there is also you.
Lu Zetian didn't dare to say these words, but just looked at Qin Shi seriously.
"Can those who celebrate the Chinese New Year get a ticket? If you have a child, you must have a sleeper." Qin Shi was very moved, but also worried, "Is it too urgent? Is there anyone in the army to fix this? They don't accept orders for the Chinese New Year, right? ? If we don’t look at it, will it be wrong?”
"The army has a production and construction corps. I'll make an application and subsidize some privately. Some people are willing." Lu Zetian explained: "They are all professionals. Give them the blueprints and explain the planning and layout carefully. They will definitely be able to build them perfectly. .”
"As for the train ticket, I will ask someone to buy it tomorrow. When I find a good person to start work, I will almost have a ticket."
"I'll ask Xiaohu to call someone to help clean up the furniture, and then you can cook a meal and reward them."
"Furniture and other messy things, I'll see if I can put them in the yard of Aunt Zhao and my brothers' house, don't worry."
Lu Zetian had already made up his mind and thought through all aspects.
Qin Shi's eyes lit up, Lu Zetian is really reliable and capable! She doesn't need to worry about it, she's comfortable now.
"That's all right, you decide." Qin Shi directly acted as the shopkeeper, and only cared about the children, and then cleaned up the things at home, and didn't worry about anything else.
"Okay." Lu Zetian smiled, and chatted with Qin Shi just like that.
After twelve o'clock, the sound of firecrackers kept ringing outside.
Lu Zetian also took Qin Shi to set off a long string of firecrackers outside the gate. He didn't care about the firecracker paper, and went straight into the house to get ready for bed and clean it tomorrow.
After returning to the house, they took a look at the children, all of them were sleeping soundly, and they were not woken up at all, probably because they got used to the sound of firecrackers during this time.
Qin Shi took out three specially made red envelopes, stuffed one yuan into each, carefully pressed them under their pillows, and then tiptoed away.
After Qin Shi came out, she saw Lu Zetian was still in the living room, so she said, "Don't stay up late, go to bed early."
Lu Zetian responded, and Qin Shi left him alone, and went back to the room to change into pajamas and prepare for bed.
Qin Shi stretched out her hand to touch the bed, and seeing that the electric blanket was burning warmly, she went to turn it off, and then got into the bed.
As soon as she lay down, the pillow made a "creaking" sound, Qin Shi raised her head strangely, reached out and patted the pillow.
As a result, the pillow made a "creaking" sound.
Qin Shi picked up the pillow and was surprised to find that there was a red envelope there. She picked up the red envelope and looked at it, and found that the red envelope was very delicate, much prettier than the ones made by herself.
She opened the red envelope, took out the brand new fifty yuan inside, and couldn't help raising her eyebrows. Is this lucky money or year-end bonus?
But no matter which one it is, since Lu Zetian gave it to herself, it is hers.
Qin Shi stuffed the money back into the red envelope with a smile, pressed it under the pillow again, and lay down happily to sleep.
Lu Zetian is older than me, so I don't need to prepare a red envelope for him, right?
Haha, earned it.
It's cool to have a generous boss.
The author has something to say:
Help, the jet lag is completely over, I can't sleep at night and can't get up in the morning, I'm sleepy in the afternoon, and I sleep until late at night... It's kind of terrible.
Don't wait for another chapter, it's probably two or three o'clock... Let's get up and read it tomorrow.
