Chapter 275 Uncle's Meeting Gift
Qiu Hongling looked much rounder than the last time they met, but there was still a hint of melancholy between her brows.
"Huo Ming, why are you here!" Qiu Hongling frowned and showed a surprised expression.
She approached Qiu Huoming intimately and turned the face of the child in her arms towards him, "Look, this is your little nephew..."
The little nephew closed his eyes and slept soundly, with his woolen hat half hanging outside and about to fall off at any time. Qiu Huoming reached out and straightened his hat, "Hey, he really does look a bit like me..."
Hu Weidong coughed outside and said, "Well, it's cold outside. You guys go back first. I'll come to your house to find you after I've given you the task..."
Qiu Hongling then leaned over to look at him, "Then Huo Ming and I will go home first. You can bring back the luggage. Huo Ming's car can't hold it..."
Hu Weidong smiled awkwardly and picked up the sack again, "Okay, I'll take it."
Qiu Huoming kicked the bicycle stand away and pushed the bicycle while waiting for Qiu Hongling to come over. "Sister, you can sit in the back holding Xiaobao. You don't have to sit sideways... It's okay if I ride slower."
Qiu Hongling sat in the back seat, hugged her son and said with a smile: "I'll hold you tight, it's okay if you ride faster, I want to go home to see my parents as soon as possible..."
Qiu Huoming stepped into the car, pushed hard, and the car moved forward smoothly.
"Brother Yougen, I have something to do today. I'll talk to you later..." Qiu Huoming said.
"Sister, how long will you stay at home this time?"
"We have to go back after the Lantern Festival..."
Although Qiu Huoming also likes children, he only likes those who don't make noise. When he heard that his little nephew was so sensible, he immediately gave him extra points in his heart.
"Hey, Xiaobao is here to repay his gratitude."
Qiu Huoming rode his bike very slowly because there was a child behind him, so he had to be more careful.
"You are a student, what business do you have?"
He looked up at Qiu Huoming, wagged his tail a few times symbolically and then stopped, continuing to fight with his head down.
When he was transferred back to short-distance driving from long-distance driving, this in itself was already a compromise. Short-distance cars have been getting worse and worse in recent years, and the good cars are all used for long-distance driving. He sighed and felt that it was not worth it.
Qiu Huoming thought, no wonder I often heard the elders say that if the wife’s family is powerful, her husband’s family will look up to her. If the wife’s family is unreliable, the husband’s family will control her completely.
"Sister, you are much more confident now." Qiu Huoming felt much more at ease when he heard her say this.
After entering the dispatch room, he found a place to put the sack and then took the list to take over.
"This dog is living a good life." Qiu Huoming cursed with a smile when he saw that it ignored him.
Qiu Huoming told him everything in detail. At this moment, the bicycle had already reached East Street. Qiu Hongling listened to her brother's words while looking at the familiar street scene. She sighed and said, "In the future, let Hongye and Hongshuang study hard, get married later, and travel around like you..."
"Even if I don't return to the team in the future, I can go anywhere with this skill."
"Well, I haven't been that far..."
Hu Weidong waved behind them and found that the brother and sister were chatting animatedly and didn't notice him at all. He put down his hand awkwardly and walked towards the dispatch room with the sack on his back...
As they were talking, the child woke up, opened his eyes, and made a "yayaya" sound. Qiu Hongling smiled and said, "This child is very well behaved. He usually doesn't get mad when he wakes up. He usually doesn't cry unless he is extremely hungry."
Zhang Yougen smiled and said, "Hey, are you taking your older sister out to play?"
"The good cars in the fleet are all used for long-distance travel. For short-distance travel to the neighboring counties and towns, we can only use the old cars. Your brother-in-law is a man who keeps silent. I think he feels very uncomfortable."
Qiu Hongling asked back: "Huo Ming, when will your school start?"
"I have to leave on the fifth day of the New Year. I need to go to the capital for some business..."
"Sister, why is my brother-in-law's car so broken?"
"Getting married doesn't mean the end of the world. I can't go out anymore, sister. When you are free, come to Guangzhou and I will take you to eat at food stalls and take a cruise..."
"Isn't this what he should do? Are you pushing the responsibility of raising the child onto you alone?"
"His mother won't agree, sister, you might as well transfer back to our county..." Qiu Huoming became angry and said angrily.
Qiu Hongling felt warm in her heart. She said angrily, "How can a child raise an adult? Don't look down on me. I'm good at accounting and abacus, and I've won awards at the traffic intersection..."
After what happened last time, Qiu Hongling already treated Qiu Huoming like an adult and said whatever she wanted to say.
He leaned back and looked, his fair face turned red. Zhang Yougen took his hand out of his trouser pocket and said, "Your sister, your sister is back..."
The car turned right and slid down the slope to the courtyard. The iron gate was open. Ah Huang was lying on the ground, gnawing on a large bone without any meat on it.
"We quarreled several times, openly and secretly. Your brother-in-law tried to smooth things over, but I was too cold-hearted to argue with them. After the first month of the lunar year, I persuaded him to continue his long-distance trips, and I agreed to his wishes. I took care of the children by myself, and had some peace and quiet..."
"If I can't help him, I'll be sorry to my parents and you brothers and sisters." Qiu Hongling raised the corners of her mouth slightly, "With you as my backing, I'm not worried at all."
"It's easier said than done." Qiu Hongling glanced at the child in her arms. "I can take care of the child at work. I can take care of the child by myself. All the female employees in our company have gone through this. My mother-in-law can't change it, so I just let her do it. I'm not at home most of the time, so I'll see how she behaves."
"He's not a bad person, he's just easily influenced by others."
Qiu Hongling glanced at him while holding the child and nodded.
This woman, once she has a child, her mind is no longer on her partner. Hu Weidong deeply discovered this profound truth, and he entered the dispatch room with some grievance.
Not far away, Zhang Yougen, with his hands in his pockets, walked over from the public toilet in a nonchalant manner and ran into Qiu Huoming head-on. Qiu Huoming parked his bicycle with one foot and called out, "Brother Yougen."
Every family has its own problems. Qiu Huoming advised, "Well, if you can't make it over there, just take Xiaobao back to your parents' home. I, your brother, am more than enough to support you..."
Zhang Yougen hurriedly responded: "Okay, you go ahead and do your work..."
"When I brought the child home this time, my mother-in-law came again. Your brother-in-law felt sorry for her being alone, so he dragged her into this. You know my mother-in-law. She's always good at acting. If she didn't do anything weird, I wouldn't target her."
Qiu Huoming turned his head to look at his fleeing back and vaguely felt that something was wrong.
As soon as the car arrived at the entrance of the alley, I saw Chen Suniang standing at the gate of my house. She was wearing an apron and peeling a garlic in her hands. The garlic skin was thrown on the open space at the door. She was staring at the alley.
As soon as Qiu Huoming showed up, Chen Suniang came up to him quickly and asked, "Are you picking him up?"
Qiu Hongling poked her head out from behind her brother and called out crisply, "Mom!"
Qiu Huoming stopped the car, asked his elder sister to get out first, and then he quickly pushed the car into the yard and parked it.
Behind me, the mother and daughter were leaning against each other affectionately.
Qiu Huoming smiled and said, "Mom, take my sister into the house. I'll make her a cup of malted milk."
The older sister and the younger sister went to a classmate's house to play and had not returned yet. Qiu Jianshe heard the noise in the inner room and quickly walked out.
"Dad!" Qiu Hongling shouted.
A smile immediately appeared on Qiu Jianshe's face. He opened his arms and took the baby in her arms into his own hands.
The little baby who hadn't cried all the way, looked at his face, pursed his lips, and started crying with a "wow".
Chen Suniang immediately grabbed him into her hands and said, "Xiaobao is shy, don't hug him blindly."
Qiu Jianshe was embarrassed, and Qiu Hongling put her arm around his elbow affectionately, "Dad, Xiaobao will be able to get to know you well in a few days."
Qiu Huoming came out of the kitchen holding two cups of malted milk, "Come in, it's windy outside..."
In the living room, Qiu Hongling was drinking malted milk and chatting with her parents. Qiu Huoming went into the kitchen and made two more cups of milk, one for each of the four people.
There was a faint aroma of dairy products in the room.
Xiaobao pouted in Chen Suniang's arms, and Qiu Huoming walked over, "Let me hug you."
"Xiaobao is still young, remember to support his butt when you hold him." Chen Suniang carefully placed Xiaobao in Qiu Huoming's arms.
Qiu Huoming smiled slightly. He had been in a hospital before, so holding a baby was definitely a high level skill for him.
Xiaobao lay steadily in his arms. He raised his eyes and tried to look at Qiu Huoming, then struggled to free one hand from the quilt. After a "ya" sound, his hand hit Qiu Huoming's face and he immediately started to giggle.
"Xiaobao likes his uncle!" Qiu Hongling said in disbelief, "This child has always been shy."
Chen Suniang had taken care of her during her confinement and had taken care of the child. The child remembered her scent, so it was understandable that he didn't cry or make a fuss. However, this was the first time they met each other.
Qiu Huoming lowered his head and touched Xiaobao's face with his face, "You are so good. I will give you a small gift tonight..."
Chen Suniang smiled and said, "Huo Ming and Hong Ling are somewhat similar. I'm afraid this child didn't see it clearly."
There was laughter in the room for a while, and soon Qiu Hongling took the child back to her own room to feed him.
In the living room, the remaining three people continued chatting.
Qiu Huoming recounted what he had seen today.
After hearing what Qiu Huoming said, Qiu Jianshe frowned, "This matter is not easy to handle. After all, he is her grandson. We can't stop him from seeing him. I have dealt with this woman before. She is really annoying. Hongling is right. I usually bring the child to work. I can't let that woman take care of the child. A good child will be led astray. It's okay to meet him occasionally to avoid quarrels..."
Chen Suniang sighed, "Hongling will be wronged."
"Since Weidong doesn't like short-distance running, let's just follow his wishes and let him continue to run long distances until the child catches the first sign of the disease."
After a while, Qiu Hongling came over alone.
"Is Xiaobao asleep?" Chen Suniang asked.
Qiu Hongling yawned, "Yeah, put it on the rocking bed."
"Do you want to go back to your room and catch up on some sleep?" Chen Suniang asked.
"No, let me chat with you guys for a while. Huo Ming will be leaving on the fifth day of the first lunar month. It won't be long now..."
Qiu Hongling sat next to Qiu Huoming. She turned her head to look at Qiu Huoming, took out a RMB wrapped in red paper from her bosom, and stuffed it directly into his pocket, "Here's your New Year's money."
Qiu Huoming was stunned. Just as he was about to return it to her, he heard Chen Suniang say, "Why don't you thank your sister?"
Qiu Huoming looked at Qiu Hongling who was smiling, and did not take out the money. "Thank you, sister. I wish you good health and success in your career."
As a few people were chatting and laughing, there was a knock on the gate.
Qiu Hongling stood up and said, "Your brother-in-law must be here."
She went straight out and opened the gate. It was indeed Hu Weidong. He was carrying a sack on his shoulder and looked exhausted.
Chen Suniang hurried over to meet her.
Hu Weidong entered the yard, put down the sack, and called out, "Mom."
"Hey, I've boiled some water, do you want to wash?"
"Mom, let me do it." Qiu Hongling said.
"Okay, take good care of Weidong."
Hu Weidong then opened the door and called out to Qiu Jianshe, "Dad."
Qiu Jianshe held it and replied, "Come on, go wash your face."
"Brother-in-law." Qiu Huoming stood up. He was the junior here.
Hu Weidong thought, now you respect me again?
He smiled and said, "I'll go wash it first, and then come in and chat with you guys later."
With two more people in the family, we need to add more food to dinner. Chen Suniang returned to the kitchen and started to get busy.
When the eldest and youngest sisters returned home, the aroma of food was already coming from the kitchen.
"You two naughty kids. You come back so late." After washing her face and re-combing her hair, Qiu Hongling looked much better. She looked at her two sisters and scolded them.
"Big sister..." The younger sister didn't care about anything and went forward to hug her.
The eldest sister smiled shyly and also called out, "Sister."
Hu Weidong walked out of the cabin. He had taken a nap in the afternoon and was feeling well.
Chen Suniang shouted from the kitchen, "Clear the food on the table, and come in to serve the dishes later..."
The two sisters responded together.
The lights in the yard were turned on, the chickens returned to the coop, and the yard gate was closed.
Qiu Hongling looked at the lively scene at home, and her eyes suddenly turned red. She turned around and said in a concealing manner: "I'll go see if Xiaobao wet the bed..."
Qiu Huoming cleaned the table in the living room, walked to the chest of drawers and turned on the TV.
The lights in the house were dim. Qiu Jianshe put down the newspaper in his hand and began to watch TV attentively.
Soon, the table was filled with dishes.
The younger sister came in with a bowl in her hand, laughing, "Today we have more dishes than we had on New Year's Eve..."
Qiu Huoming looked at the dining table and suggested, "Our dining table is a little small. How about we wait until the fifteenth day of the first lunar month and get a bigger table?"
Craftsmen have a tradition that they generally only take orders after the 15th day of the lunar month.
Chen Suniang untied the apron around her waist and agreed, "It's too small. After the fifteenth day, I'll go find a carpenter..."
"Let's find my classmate. He has good skills."
"Well, let's find him." Chen Suniang hung up her apron, turned around and called out, "Hongling, Weidong, come in and eat!"
"Hey, here we come."
The door opened, and Qiu Hongling came in holding Xiaobao, and Hu Weidong came in carrying a small rocking bed.
The small rocking bed was placed in the corner, and Qiu Hongling put the baby with the changed diaper in it.
The little baby looked up at the light bulb hanging from the ceiling, which was swaying gently in the wind. He was not afraid and kept babbling in words that only he could understand.
"Please squeeze in and come to the table to eat." Chen Suniang smiled and directed the whole family to sit down.
Qiu Jianshe then took out a bottle of wine from the chest of drawers and said, "Weidong, if you don't drive, have a drink tonight..."
Qiu Huoming slapped his head and said, "Wait a minute, I'll go get something."
He hurried back to the cabin and pulled out three small brocade bags from under his pillow.
Back in the living room, he distributed the three brocade bags to his eldest sister, eldest sister and youngest sister.
"Big sister's portion is for Xiaobao. I'm his uncle, so it's a meeting gift."
Qiu Huoming looked at his elder and younger sisters and said, "You two also have a share. I won't give it to you when you grow up."
