Chapter 256 Teacher Ran and He Yuzhu
February 1966, 2, Lantern Festival.
He Yuzhu came to the gate of a small courtyard with a bag of snacks in hand and a smile on his face.
This place is none other than the courtyard where Teacher Ran lives.
He has been here many times in recent days, so he is no stranger to the place.
It can even be said that it is a familiar path.
"Boom boom boom!"
He Yuzhu knocked on the door.
"Who..."
I heard the voice of an elderly woman from inside.
"Yeah!"
The door is opened.
"Ah...He Yuzhu is here!"
This old woman was none other than Ran Qiuye's mother.
Although Ran's mother was dressed in simple clothes, she had a certain demeanor in her conversation, not like an ordinary person.
"come in……"
As she spoke, she led He Yuzhu into the house...
"You came at the right time. I don't know what's going on with Qiu Ye... She's been in a bad mood these past two days... Can you help her calm down..."
It was obvious that Ran's mother had already regarded He Yuzhu as her future son-in-law and was not at all shy about it.
"This teacher Ran..."
He Yuzhu was a little confused... Teacher Ran was in a bad mood?
"Hey, Xiao He, you're here..."
At this time, an elderly man came over from the inner room.
Seeing He Yuzhu, he also shouted enthusiastically.
"Uncle Ran... Hello..."
He Yuzhu greeted shyly.
"I don't really understand what you young people are doing...let's communicate more..."
Father Ran wore a pair of black-framed glasses and looked gentle and refined.
In the early years, the Ran family was a large family and also a scholarly family in the capital. He and his wife went abroad to study before the founding of the People's Republic of China. After returning from their studies, they did not stay abroad, but returned to build their own motherland. However, domestic political activities continued one after another.
Today, their family has long fallen into poverty, and because of their poor background, their daughter can only become a primary school teacher despite having a high level of education.
Fortunately, now that He Yuzhu is here, their daughter finally has someone to rely on.
"Uncle Ran, I don't know what's going on... There must be a misunderstanding... I'll just communicate with Teacher Ran..."
"Go ahead... We believe in your character... Just talk it out..."
Father Ran said with a smile.
He Yuzhu nodded repeatedly... and came to the inner room.
At this time, Teacher Ran was sitting at the desk reading a book. When he saw He Yuzhu coming in, his face lit up with joy at first, but then his face slowly turned cold.
"Teacher Ran..."
He Yuzhu shouted foolishly from the side.
Seeing his silly look, Ran Qiuye, who originally wanted to put on airs, couldn't hold back and burst out laughing.
……
"What? Who told you this..."
When He Yuzhu heard what Ran Qiuye said about him, he became furious and uncontrollable.
"Don't listen to those rumors..."
"I'm a cook. As the saying goes, if you live by the mountain, you eat from the mountain; if you live by the sea, you eat from the sea. Some of the leaders' leftovers are generally given to the cooks. It's not excessive for me to take them home... Besides, the leaders are also aware of this..."
"As for Qin Huairu...I am indeed quite close to her..."
When He Yuzhu mentioned Qin Huairu, her face looked a little embarrassed, which made Ran Qiuye on the side nervous, fearing that Sha Zhu would say something inappropriate, which was not what she wanted to see.
"But that's because I saw how hard it was for her as a woman to raise a family of five... That's why I've been helping them... Giving her the food I brought back..."
"To be honest, even my sister He Yushui has never eaten the food I brought home like this... Instead, my house has become a popular canteen..."
"That's because I feel sorry for Qin Huairu, but there is nothing wrong between her and me... I have nothing to fear from my own shadow!"
Perhaps because this was related to He Yuzhu's lifelong event, he spoke clearly and methodically at this moment to publicize his good deeds.
"I know... you are definitely not that kind of person..."
Teacher Ran also felt a little guilty for doubting He Yuzhu at this time. After all, she was just a simple-minded woman... without so many calculations, she was willing to believe He Yuzhu.
"........."
Time flies, and in the blink of an eye, it is the end of March.
Zhao Dongchuan rode a bicycle with Qin Jingru in the capital city in early spring.
"The master in your family really knows how to drink..."
Zhao Dongchuan said with a smile while riding his bike.
"Everyone wants to get me drunk... Fortunately, I can drink a lot without getting drunk, otherwise I might not be able to return to the capital..."
"Haha, no way, my father and my brothers are just happy to see you..."
Qin Jingru was wearing a brand new floral cotton coat at this time, her face slightly red as she spoke.
"Tsk... don't think I can't see it, that was a warning to me... to tell me not to bully your little sister..."
"But your family is quite generous... you gave us so many local specialties..."
Zhao Dongchuan sighed as he looked at the things hanging on the bicycle.
Every family is having a hard time right now... Although there are fields and grain in the countryside, most of them have been paid as public grain, and there is not much left at the end of the year.
He originally didn't want it, but his family forced him to take it back, saying that it was a dowry for their daughter.
Weddings these days are not as grand as they are in later generations...and the situation has become increasingly serious recently, so everything should be kept simple.
This time, Zhao Dongchuan accompanied Qin Jingru back to Qinjia Village and met his father-in-law, mother-in-law, and all the Qin brothers and sisters.
What a big family!
Everyone in the Qin family really cared for Qin Jingru, the sixth child, and basically didn't let her do any farm work. They treated her like a young lady from a wealthy family.
Everyone in the Qin family was very satisfied with him.
They were somewhat opposed to it before, thinking that he was too young and afraid that he could not shoulder the responsibility of a family.
They were afraid that if Qin Jingru married him, she would be like an old nanny taking care of her son, but Qin Jingru insisted again and again, saying that she would not marry anyone else, so finally the Qin family compromised.
Besides, they couldn't find anyone with better conditions than Zhao Dongchuan...
After all, the "fixed grain" for urban residents is very popular nowadays.
However, they did not expect that when Zhao Dongchuan arrived and met him, they found that this man was really precocious.
Although Zhao Dongchuan is two years younger than Qin Jingru, the way he treats people and speaks does not seem like a teenager at all. Instead, he is as calm and composed as a man in his thirties, handling things with ease.
If it weren't for the fact that his household registration book clearly stated that he was born in 1949, they would have thought that Qin Jingru had met a scammer.
At this time, they were completely relieved, and they were extremely enthusiastic towards him, calling him son-in-law and brother-in-law all the time.
"My dad said... I am yours from now on... Let me live a good life with you and listen to you..."
Qin Jingru was sitting in the back row, pinching the corners of Zhao Dongchuan's clothes with both hands, and said shyly.
"Hahaha, that's not the case...you will be mine from now on...I will take good care of you..."
