Stepmother

Chapter 27: routine inquiries

    Sister Chen turned around when she heard the voice: "Mr. Song is back. You said that Xiao Zhao, I'm not familiar with her, I just chatted a few times when I went shopping."

    "Then she is looking for you for help?" Song Zhaodi walked over and asked.

    Sister Chen didn't go back to the house when she saw her: "If you want me to introduce someone to her, it is best to be an officer above the company commander."

    Song Zhaodi was dumbfounded, the answer was too unexpected: "Didn't she ask Head Qian to introduce her to someone, why did she find you again?"

    Sister Chen frowned slightly and stared at Song Zhaodi: "Please head Qian? Who told you?"

    "The people in the non-staple food factory say that." Song Zhaodi said, "My family eats green vegetables, spinach, and lettuce these days. When the big baby and the second baby are tired of eating, I will go to the non-staple food factory and give them to them. Buy two big bone sticks and stew soup for them to make noodles. When chatting with the workers, the employees of the non-staple food factory told me this, did they lie to me? "

    Zhong Dawa often "stealed" things from home for Lin Zhong to eat. Sister Chen knew that and taught her son not to eat things from other children.

    Last night, the big baby came to play in the forest, and gestured that the noodles made by his stepmother were better than those made by others. Sister-in-law Chen asked curiously, knowing that Song Zhaodi was using bone broth to make noodles, and she doubted him: "Those people probably don't know. This little Zhao, I can't tell."

    "I know." Song Zhaodi looked silly and sweet, "Xiao Zhao has high vision, and ordinary people don't look down on her."

    Sister Chen said helplessly: "Xiao Song, you are really stupid."

    Song Zhaodi was stunned for a moment, then understood in an instant, and deliberately pretended not to know: "I'm stupid? No, sister-in-law, what do you mean? We're talking about Xiao Zhao."

    Sister Chen walked over to her and whispered, "That little Zhao is restless."

    Song Zhaodi frowned: "restless? You mean she, she is very frivolous?"

    Sister Chen nodded: "If you go to the non-staple food factory in the future, don't be polite to her, or she will have to come to you next time." After a while, "I just give her a good face. , she thought I liked her quite a bit, and she didn't know what kind of virtue she had when peeing."

    Song Zhaodi frowned, Sister Chen's tone was wrong. Wait, is it difficult: "Sister-in-law, I heard what you said, that Xiao Zhao didn't look for Head Lin before, did he?"

    Sister Chen looked around subconsciously, and saw that no one was coming here: "I tell you, don't say it outside, she just asked our old Lin to talk to us when we moved here. .

    "Lao Lin is an elm head, and he told me when he came back that he met Xiao Zhao several times in a row in the past few days. Did Xiao Zhao ask him to introduce her to her? I thought so. Well. Later, the non-staple food factory was established. I went to the non-staple food factory to buy something and wanted to introduce Xiao Zhao to someone. Xiao Zhao's face changed, and I knew that her purpose was our old Lin. "

    "Headmaster Lin doesn't know?" Song Zhaodi was shocked, and secretly warned herself that she shouldn't treat everyone as honest because of the simplicity of the people of this era. There is no shortage of junior professional households in any age.

    Sister Chen: "I told Lao Lin that Xiao Zhao has a good eye, but if Lao Lin said that she didn't want to, forget it and leave it alone."

    "According to what my sister-in-law said, Xiao Zhao is interested in the head of Qian." Song Zhaodi deliberately pretended to be puzzled, "Then why did she ask you to introduce her to her?"

    Sister Chen snorted and mocked: "Old Qian has Mr. Yao at home, how can she be attracted to her. It is estimated that she came across a nail in Lao Qian's place, and then she thought of looking for me again. "

    "It stands to reason that she wanted to marry an officer a long time ago, why not marry the big baby's father?" Song Zhaodi wanted to know what was wrong with Zhong Jianguo, Xiao Zhao let Zhong Jianguo go A man in his thirties doesn't want to, just staring at an old man in his forties.

    Sister Chen smiled and said, "Xiao Zhao wants to marry your little Zhong. Unfortunately, she asked someone to find out that Dawa's grandmother was difficult, Dawa's grandmother had a bad heart, and Xiaozhong had three more Children, the youngest three baby can't leave, so I let your little clock go. Otherwise, it will not be your turn."

    "That's it." That's right. Song Zhaodi immediately asked, "Sister-in-law doesn't plan to introduce her?"

    Sister Chen nodded: "It's unlucky for that kind of woman to marry, I don't want to do that immoral thing."

    "Stepmother, why did you come back?"

    Dawa's voice came from behind, Song Zhaodi turned around, put her hands on her hips, and stared, "What are you calling?"

    Dawa took a step and braked the car: "Mother." After a sentence, she turned around and pushed open the door of her house, showing her head, "I'm hungry, I'm cooking."

    Song Zhaodi put down her hand: "Go and pick some green vegetables, pick the big ones."

    "I eat green vegetables again." Dawa grimaced, "I don't want to eat it."

    Song Zhaodi said with a smile: "Then I won't cook tonight, I'm too tired to move anyway."

    The baby's face changed slightly, and then ran to the courtyard, shouting: "I'm going to pick vegetables."

    "This child." Sister-in-law Duan came over with the third baby, "The second baby and I have been talking since noon, why the stepmother hasn't come back, why hasn't she come back. Lao Liu scared them both. "If you call your stepmother again, she won't be back today. I started talking in the afternoon, why my mother hasn't come back yet."

    Song Zhaodi took Sanwa: "What did you eat at your house at noon?"

      Potted greens, eat with rice. By the way, did you buy cloth?"

    Sister Chen hurriedly asked: "Xiao Song went out to buy cloth?"

    "I bought it." Song Zhaodi said, "A piece of blue cloth, one gray, and one white. If you don't ask, I almost forgot. I listened to the eldest sister who sold the cloth in the cooperative, and answered If it's sunny in the next two days, they will deal with the winter cloth. If you want to buy cloth, go check it out in two days. However, I can't guarantee that it will be available."

    Sister Chen smiled: "As soon as the clearance sign is posted every year, no matter how much cloth is piled up in the warehouse, it can be sold out on the same day. It's not your fault that you can't buy it. , go to Hangcheng to see."

    "I'll go with you." Sister Duan said quickly, "Xiao Song, do you still want it?"

    Song Zhaodi: "If you can buy it, I will definitely have it. It doesn't matter if the rag head is left, just keep the sole of the shoe. By the way, sister-in-law, if you have food stamps in your family, you can also take it over there with you. People who change cloth tickets. When changing, be sure to find someone who obviously hasn’t eaten a full meal for several days.”

    "I know." Sister-in-law Duan has done a lot of things like exchanging tickets, and she doesn't need Song Zhaodi's explanation, "It's getting dark, go back and cook."

    Song Zhaodi hugged Sanwa into the house and couldn't help sighing.

    "Stepmother, I'm playing with my younger brother, you rest." Erwa said with her head raised.

    Song Zhaodi glanced at the little guy beside her: "Okay, look at your brother, don't eat the things on the ground, I'll take the cloth upstairs."

    "Are you making clothes for us?" Erwa hurriedly asked.

    Song Zhaodi said "um": "Are you happy?"

    "Happy." Erwa grinned, her eyes narrowed into a line.

    The big baby looks like Zhong Jianguo, the second baby looks like his mother, the third baby has a face like Zhong Jianguo, and the facial features are very delicate, like a birch. However, Bai Hua has single eyelids, and the three brothers have double eyelids like Zhong Jianguo.

    The eyes of Erwa and Sanwa are slender, but not small. As a result, the three children were blown by the sea breeze, and the sun was a little dark, but they were not ugly at all.

    Song Zhaodi's appearance in the past life is not outstanding, and the facial features in this life are not too delicate. If she has a child with Zhong Jianguo, it is not necessarily better than the big three.

    When Sanwa was ill, Song Zhaodi took him to the hospital, and saw that the equipment in the hospital was far behind the community health center in her previous life. Song Zhaodi once again made up her mind that having three children is enough. Whoever wants to give birth, she does not give birth anyway.

    However, that goes a long way.

    Song Zhaodi went to the kitchen and saw that there were two bowls of rice left in the pot, and immediately guessed that Zhong Jianguo, who couldn't cook, cooked too much. So, the family eats vegetables in the evening.

    After dinner, the eldest baby and the second baby ran out to play, Song Zhaodi waited for Zhong Jianguo to clean up the pots and pans and said, "You look at the three of them tomorrow morning, I will go to the non-staple food factory to buy something. "

    "Finally, I found that I was willing to let me sleep for a while." Zhong Jianguo said.

    Song Zhaodi wanted to beat someone: "When I didn't say it. I'll take a bath with Sanwa."

    Zhong Jianguo's heart skipped a beat, is he kidding? Holding Sanwa in one hand and Song Zhaodi in the other: "I'll boil water for you, and you go upstairs to get a change of clothes."

    Song Zhaodi kicked him in the leg, and the unsuspecting Zhong Jianguo stumbled before going upstairs.

    Zhong Jianguo rubbed his legs and turned to Sanwa: "What happened to your mother? Son."

    "Dad." Sanwa said, "Dad."

    Zhong Jianguo is funny: "I know you will call Dad, I'm asking about your mother, not your father." After speaking, he heard the sound of going downstairs, and hurriedly ran to the kitchen to boil water.

    The next day, in the morning, Song Zhaodi went straight to the non-staple food factory, but she did not go directly, but went around to the dry goods counter from the other side.

    Seeing that the woman behind the counter is Xiao Zhao, Song Zhaodi twitched her lips and finally blocked you. When he got there, he asked, "Are there any fungus?"

    "No." Xiao Zhao raised his eyelids and looked at Song Zhaodi, and said coldly.

    Song Zhaodi tutted in her heart, thinking that fortunately, the non-staple food factory is a state-owned unit. If it were a private unit, you would have been fired long ago. Not to mention marrying an officer, an ordinary soldier may not want you: "Where's Tremella?"

    "No." Xiao Zhao spit out two words lightly.

    Song Zhaodi took a deep breath: "Cut me two pounds of kelp."

    Xiao Zhao picked up the scissors and dug out the kelp.

    Song Zhaodi stared at her hands intently. Seeing that her hands were no different from her own, she couldn't help but wonder, could it be that she guessed wrong?

    Zhong Jianguo dressed the three children, washed their faces, and put the rice on the stove to cook porridge. Didn't make Comrade Xiao Song angry?"

    "No." The big boy rubbed his stomach, "Dad, I'm hungry, when will I eat?"

    Zhong Jianguo really wanted to give him a slap: "As soon as he opens his mouth, he eats, does he know the back of the multiplication table?"

    Zhong Dawa snorted, flipped out the white board on which the multiplication formula was written, and said, "Erwa, come here and teach you to memorize the multiplication formula."

    Zhong Jianguo has a headache: "Your brother is only four years old!"

    "Four years old is very old." Zhong Dawa pointed at Erwa, "Come here, do you hear?"

    Not only did Zhong Erwa not go over, she raised her foot and ran to the door: "Mother, brother hit me."

    Zhong Dawa was about to catch up, when she heard Erwa's words, she subconsciously stopped and explained, "I didn't hit him."

    "I saw you scare Erwa outside." Song Zhaodi came in with Erwa's hand, "Zhong Dawa, I bought bones again today, if you dare to scare my brother again, I will No bone broth noodles."

    Zhong Dawa pursed her lips and replied, "I won't scare him in the future." However, as soon as Song Zhaodi entered the room, Dawa glared at Erwa, you wait for me.

    "Zhong Dawa, come and make a fire, I'll cook." Song Zhaodi said coldly.

    The big baby shuddered and ran into the kitchen quickly.

    Zhong Jianguo laughed and went in: "Comrade Xiao Song, I was wrong yesterday."

    Song Zhaodi's eyes flashed with surprise: "What's wrong?"

    "You understand me and want to sleep a little longer in the morning, I shouldn't mock you." Zhong Jianguo didn't know what Song Zhaodi was angry about. If his apology would make Song Zhaodi calm down, then apologize chant.

    Song Zhaodi snorted coldly: "Go to the non-staple food factory tomorrow morning to buy pork bones and go to Xiao Zhao to buy some dried daylily."

    "Daddy, take my brother out, I'll set the fire." Zhong Jianguo opened his mouth to ask, why didn't you buy it today? Seeing that Song Zhaodi's expression was very serious when the words came to her mouth, she moved in her heart and sent the child out.

    Song Zhaodi: "I suspect that there is something wrong with Xiao Zhao." Then she told Zhong Jianguo what Sister Chen told her, "A girl in her twenties doesn't want to have children like me. , I don't want to serve my in-laws, there's no need to stare at officers in their forties, right?"

    "What if it's the same as you?" Zhong Jianguo asked rhetorically.

    Song Zhaodi: "I really don't want to have children, so she should marry you. But has anyone mentioned Xiao Zhao to you?"

    "No." Zhong Jianguo thought for a moment, "So it seems that Xiao Zhao really has a problem. Do you think Head Qian knows?"

    Song Zhaodi is very sure: "I don't know. If Head Qian knew, he would never have dared to keep the letter that Xiao Zhao wrote to him. If I had known this, Qian Qinghua would have given me the letter at that time. When the time comes, I should open it and look at Xiao Zhao's words."

    "I'll handle this." Zhong Jianguo didn't wait until the next day, he went to the non-staple food factory after breakfast.

    In the evening, Zhong Jianguo didn't come back, Song Zhaodi didn't think much about it, closed the door of the eldest baby and the second baby's room, and took the third baby to sleep.

    The next morning, Song Zhaodi opened her eyes and saw that the other half had not slept. Song Zhaodi was not too worried. After all, she was used to Zhong Jianguo walking away for several days, sometimes returning at dawn.

    In the morning, when she was in the English class, Song Zhaodi saw the headmaster in a hurry, and her heart sank, and she ran to the office after class.

    The Chinese teacher of the first year of junior high school helped Song Zhaodi to take care of the three babies. Song Zhaodi saw that the other party did not take the three babies, but asked: "What happened?"

    "Mr. Yao was taken away by the military." The language teacher said, "The two captains in ordinary clothes didn't attract anyone's attention. Don't ask me how I know, I know one of them , it's my man."

    Song Zhaodi almost burst out laughing, although this time is not suitable: "Mr. Yao will be fine."

    "I know." The language teacher said, "She is so capable, she will not be forced to divorce by the head of the money. Did the head of the money make a mistake and affect her?"

    Song Zhaodi: "I don't know either. Go to class, don't think too much, anyway, the teachers in our school will be fine." That's what she said, persuaded her to leave, Song Zhaodi hugged her Sanwa ran home.

    When I got home, no accident, Zhong Jianguo, who disappeared all day and night, was sleeping upstairs, and Song Zhaodi quickly woke him up: "Is something wrong with the Qian family?"

    "Got it?" Zhong Jianguo rubbed his eyes.

    Song Zhaodi: "I saw Mr. Yao was invited away."

    "Routine inquiry." Zhong Jianguo said, "It has nothing to do with her. Don't ask anything else, I can't say."
