Chapter 14
Woven Second Threads Novel Chapter 14
She was really frightened by the fact that this child ran away from home. You know, in the previous life, this guy would run away at every turn and would not come back for several days. What if one day he got angry and ran away again?
Let him know that this is also his home, and this home needs him, a little man. Will he have a sense of responsibility and not leave casually?
Eli tilted his head and thought for a long time, then said, "Whoever bullies you, I will help you beat him."
Marinda Qingping:...
"Eli, hitting people is not the best way to solve problems. Besides, I'm not afraid of being bullied. I'm also very capable." Marinda Qingping was quite worried about Eli's habit of hitting people to solve problems. He must follow up carefully in the future. He said this.
"Then what are you afraid of?" Eli didn't understand either.
"Well I'm afraid of a lot" Marinda Qingping frowned and thought, "For example, I'm afraid of the dark."
Hearing this, Eli frowned, with a look of incomprehension.
Marinda Qingping: I still want to continue making up, "I'm still afraid of bugs. When I pick vegetables in the future, can you help me get rid of the bugs?"
Although Eli felt that the things she was afraid of were hard to understand, he still nodded and agreed. These are all small things!
Marinda Qingping smiled and stretched out her hand to hook up with him, "You have to keep helping me! Always and always."
"Okay!" Eli hooked his little finger with her without thinking.
Marinda Qingping then took him back to eat.
He really loves sweets, and his eyes lit up when he saw the pumpkin pie.
Marinda Qingping said with a smile, "You did a good job on your homework today. When we go to the county later, I will make delicious food for you when we come back in the evening."
Eli's eyes lit up again as he listened.
Children love to eat after all,
Marinda Qingping went to the county for two purposes.
Firstly, I just bought study materials and school supplies. Secondly, I wanted to see if there was any way to make money. I wanted to start making money earlier than in my previous life. I also wanted to see if I could meet the people I met in my previous life.
After dinner, she took Eli and set off.
The department store we went to first found out that Eli's clothes were old and short. The lower cover was frayed and patched with two large patches, and the patches were torn again.
When entering the department store, Marinda Qingping found that the child was not surprised at all in the city, as if it was commonplace...
Marinda Qingping thought of his mother who had never been mentioned before. She had never appeared in her previous life or this life, and she didn't know what kind of person she was.
I bought two clothes and two pairs of shoes for Eli. After thinking about it, I went to the wool counter and bought a few kilograms of wool.
Her sweater knitting skills are good, and autumn is here, so it’s time to knit a few sweaters for her family.
When she was passing by the women's clothing counter, she saw a beautiful red women's coat, and she immediately bought it. It was for her younger sister.
Just like that, she carried everything with her. By the time they finished buying school supplies and materials, Eli was already carrying small items in his hands.
Marinda Qingping felt a little regretful. There were really too few college entrance examination materials. Compared with later candidates who buried themselves in a sea of books and questions, it was really a big disparity.
She carried large and small bags to her last destination--the state-owned sugar factory.
There lived someone very important to her.
However, it was all in vain, the man was not there.
There is no way, in this era, without mobile phones, communication is really inconvenient and not timely.
Moreover, they are still strangers at this time...
Forget it, see you again in the future.
She bought two packs of sugar at the sales department of the sugar factory, bought a few buns for Eli to eat on the way, and took Eli on the way back.
It was almost dark when we got home. At home, my mother-in-law was cooking, and my father-in-law also came back from work.
Seeing her big and small bags, neither of them said anything.
Marinda Qingping washed her hands and went into the kitchen to help cook.
Eli followed him in. In the small kitchen, he bumped into Fiona Liu and Marinda Qingping.
Fiona Liu smiled and said, "It's a big place, why are you squeezing here?"
Marinda Qingping smiled. This child, if nothing else, just keeps his word. This kind of loyalty has never changed since he was a child.
She took some vegetables to him and said, "Eli, can you help me pick the vegetables?"
Eli nodded and immediately took a small wooden basin to wash vegetables.
Marinda Qingping specially made a double-skin milk today.
Promised to do it for Eli.
Unexpectedly, Eli, who loves desserts so much, stopped eating after one bite.
"What's wrong? Isn't it delicious?" Marinda Qingping asked.
Eli shook his head, "Keep it, tomorrow..."
"Eat it, it will be bad tomorrow. If you like it, I will make another one for you tomorrow."
After hearing this, Eli finished eating in small bites.
After dinner, Marinda Qingping took out the things he bought today, five pounds of wool, all dark colors, and asked his father-in-law and mother-in-law to choose the color they liked.
It shocked my parents-in-law directly. They looked at her like she was a monster.
Marinda Qingping said "cough" twice, this is his own fault, he must not live...
"Ningzi asked me to buy some clothes for you in autumn. I think we have to do farm work in the countryside, so we should make the outside clothes ourselves, so I only bought two sets for Eli. In a month or two, The weather is getting cold, so I will knit a sweater for each of you." The only advantage of not having her husband around is that you can rely on him for everything.
Although this explanation was considered an explanation, it was obviously not convincing enough. However, the parents-in-law said nothing more and just pointed at a color.
"Okay, I'll give these two to you two elders, and give this color to Eli." The remaining threads can at least weave one piece...
She gathered up all the threads. If she had nothing to do at night, she could start knitting.
This day passed in such a busy manner.
The next day, she gave Eli two lessons, which were not long, about 20 minutes each. She assigned homework and cooked meals. Of course, she did not forget to make Eli double-skinned milk. Then, I packed my things and went back to my parents' house.
Mainly for my sister, she went directly to the fields.
As expected, my sister was working in the fields, her thin body bent like a shrimp in the hot sun.
"Second sister!" she called as she came closer.
Her father saw her first, and his face dropped as soon as he saw her. It seemed that her mother had said a lot of bad things about her when she came back.
She didn't care how ugly her father's face was, she just pulled her sister aside and asked her, "How are you preparing the school supplies I asked you to prepare?"
The second sister lowered her head and said nothing.
Marinda Qingping suddenly thought of something, "The money is gone, right?"
The second sister lowered her head, her face turned red.
Marinda Qingping was sure that her mother must have taken the money.
"Forget it, it's my fault. I didn't think carefully." She handed the bag to her sister, "Inside is a piece of clothing, as well as some review materials and school supplies. Keep it and review it by yourself."
The clothes she specially bought were red, so her mother wouldn't wear them for her brother, right?
Who knows, the second sister hugged the baggage and whispered, "Sister, otherwise, forget it"
