He hurried to the yard, put the backpack on the ground, and went straight to the toilet in the backyard without saying a word to Yu Jinhuai.
Ah Ning was still at home so he couldn’t disappear suddenly, otherwise he would be scared.
Yu Jinhuai behind him looked at his anxious figure, thinking that he was really in a hurry, and didn’t think about the store at all. Only Yu Zhining, who was suddenly released by him, stood there in confusion, buttoning his clothes helplessly. Hearing footsteps, he looked at Yu Jinhuai again.
A baby voice asked: “Uncle, what’s wrong with little uncle?”
Yu Jinhuai walked over and replied: “Little uncle is fine.”
“Oh.” Although Yu Zhining was puzzled but he still believed it.
This time, there were many bamboo shoots dug, and they couldn’t be eaten in a short time. Yu Jinhuai planned to let Aunt Sun help pickle the remaining bamboo shoots.
Just as he was thinking, the door that was not closed was pushed open from the outside with a creak. He turned around and saw that the person who came was the Aunt Sun he had just thought about. She was holding a bundle in her hand and holding her grandson with the other hand, looking at him with a smile.
“Auntie.”
Yu Zhining’s eyes lit up, “Grandma Sun, Brother Ming.”
Aunt Sun let go of Sun Ming’s little hand and motioned him to go find Yu Zhining to play. Seeing the two little ones gathered together under the jujube tree in the yard, Aunt Sun walked in slowly and handed the bundle in her hand to Yu Jinhuai.
She said, “The clothes for Brother Shu are ready.” As she said that, she leaned her head to look behind, “Where is Brother Shu? Let him try it on and see if it fits?”
Yu Jinhuai took it, touched the bundle with his big hand, and said, “Ah Yun is in the backyard, I’ll go call him.”
Auntie Sun hurriedly pulled his arm and said with a smile, “No hurry, no hurry.”
Since she said so, Yu Jinhuai brought a chair and led her to sit in the yard and talked about pickled bamboo shoots.
On the other side, Meng Yunshu, who had hurried to the toilet, entered the store without stopping.
Lu Renjia was already standing in the store, with his hands behind his back looking at the goods on the shelves. The goods he mentioned to Meng Yunshu last time were all on the shelves, and there were even other goods.
He didn’t wait long, Meng Yunshu pushed open the back door of the store and came in. He was still wearing the same clothes that Yu Jinhuai wore when he went out to pick bamboo shoots. There was some dirt on his shoes, pants and sleeves, and his hair was a little messy from running.
Meng Yunshu stood in front of the shelf, met Lu Renjia’s slightly surprised eyes, and said embarrassedly: “I just got home and came late.”
Lu Renjia shook his head to show that he didn’t care, “I just arrived too.”
“By the way, I have bought everything you want.” Meng Yunshu pointed to the goods on the shelf and said, “I’ll take them down for you now.”
He was thinking about Yu Zhining at home, and was afraid that he would not be able to find him later, so he wanted to make it quick.
It happened that Lu Renjia was thinking this way, and he also wanted the children around him to drink milk powder. The two of them were concerned about each other, and the transaction was completed quickly.
Before leaving, Lu Renjia said that he still needed some goods such as noodles or sugar, and Meng Yunshu naturally agreed. He turned his head to look at the empty shelves, and glanced at his Chinese currency. When he was about to leave, he remembered the silver that Yu Jinhuai took him to the county to spend today. He gritted his teeth and exchanged one tael of silver, one Huaxia currency for one penny. Seeing his account missing a thousand coins, Meng Yunshu was heartbroken.
But he knew that if he lost a thousand coins, he would only buy less goods, but one tael of silver was a lot of money for a farmer, and it could be used for a long time.
Holding the silver, Meng Yunshu came out of the store and stood in the toilet. He glimpsed the Yu family’s toilet from the corner of his eye and couldn’t help twitching his mouth.
After a few days, he must talk to Yu Jinhuai about the toilet. Even if it can’t be a modern toilet, it must be made a little more familiar, otherwise every time he stands on the wooden board, he is extremely worried that he will fall down.
Holding the silver in his hand, he put aside the matter of the toilet for the time being and pushed the door open excitedly to leave.
Walking along the path to the yard, the smile on his face became brighter and brighter. Just as he walked to the front yard, he opened his mouth to call Yu Jinhuai but saw Aunt Sun sitting next to him. He hurriedly put away the silver, slowed down his pace, and walked over steadily.
“Auntie.” Meng Yunshu called.
Aunt Sun smiled and responded. Her eyes noticed the clothes on his body, and looked back and forth between the two of them meaningfully. She recognized that the shorts on Shu ger were Ah Huai’s, and the fabric of this clothes was picked by Yu Jinhuai’s mother. She remembered it clearly. It seems that the relationship between the young couple was very good.
Afraid that Shu ger would find it weird if she looked at him for too long, Aunt Sun looked away and explained her purpose.
“I brought the clothes.” Aunt Sun noticed that Meng Yunshu looked at Yu Jinhuai in shock, and couldn’t help laughing in her heart. Huai boy also learned to act first and ask for permission later. She said jokingly, “He bought cloth and cotton as early as the day Huai boy brought you back, and asked me to make you a cotton coat. The ready-made clothes in the county are expensive but not as warm as the ones made at home.”
Meng Yunshu half-lowered his eyes, “Aunt’s work is naturally good.”
This sentence made Aunt Sun happy to hear, just listening to her hearty laughter, “Shu ger’s mouth.”
Knowing what she meant, Meng Yunshu’s earlobes blushed, and even Yu Jinhuai’s eyes were a little surprised.
His husband was really a wonderful person.
Seeing that it was getting late, Aunt Sun asked Meng Yunshu to try on the clothes and saw that they fit, and then called Sun Ming to leave. She also agreed with Meng Yunshu to go to her house after breakfast tomorrow to learn how to make sauerkraut and pickled bamboo shoots.
When leaving the Yu family house, they were all smiling. Yu Jinhuai said that he and Ah Ning’s clothes would not be bothered by him anymore.
After Aunt Sun left, Yu Zhining had no playmates and played by himself.
Meng Yunshu changed into his own clothes and came out of the main room. He rolled up his sleeves and looked up at Yu Jinhuai who was sorting bamboo shoots, and asked him: “Brother Huai, what do you want for dinner?”
Yu Jinhuai hadn’t responded yet, and Yu Zhining, who was playing on the side, shouted: “Little uncle, I want noodles.”
“Okay, listen to Ah Ning.”
When passing by Yu Jinhuai, Meng Yunshu handed him a stool and turned to the kitchen.
Yu Zhining clapped his hands in fear, ran to Yu Jinhuai, squatted down and stared at his movements silently. After a while, he saw his eyes rolling around, or secretly glanced at him quickly, and his hands covered with dirt seemed to be ready to move. Seeing this, Yu Jinhuai raised his eyebrows and glanced at him.
Seeing that his dirty hands were about to touch the peeled bamboo shoots, Yu Jinhuai’s expression suddenly turned cold, and looked at him seriously.
He said in a flat tone, “Ah Ning.”
