Tie Min was at Wang Li's house, counting the seconds until the last minute. If he didn't go home to cook dinner, Aunt Zhou would definitely not be able to get around him again.

He hugged Wang Li, nibbled on her face and said, "I'm working the day shift tomorrow, so you'll have to suffer a lot by yourself."

Wang Li had a happy smile on her face.

Wang Li sent Tie Min out of the hospital and suddenly felt nauseated. After closing the door, she muttered to herself that this guy must have forgotten to brush his teeth this morning.

Thinking of this, Wang Li felt nauseated again and squeaked a few times.

Tie Min rode his bicycle all the way to the vegetable market, sold a cabbage, and prepared to go home to make vegetable soup. He accidentally passed by Xie Guizhi's sales truck and saw a melancholy face.

"Mom." Tiemin greeted, Xie Guizhi raised her head helplessly and looked at Tiemin.

Needless to say, Xie Guizhi knew that Tie Min had just come out of her house. She wanted to ask if he had gone through the marriage registration procedures, but when the words came to her lips, she swallowed them back.

Xie Guizhi picked up a pig's paw, wrapped it in a plastic bag, handed it to Tiemin and said: "Take this back to your father, he will enjoy this bite."

Tie Min looked at Xie Guizhi blankly and asked again, what is the difference between you and my father?

Seeing Xie Guizhi avoiding his eyes as if she was running away, he could only change his words and say: "Thank you, Mom."

Tiemin pushed the bicycle into the house and was stunned for a moment.

Liu Dongmei was wearing an apron and was cooking in the kitchen. When she saw Tie Min, she immediately smiled happily and said, "Brother, you are back."

"You..." Tiemin looked at Liu Dongmei blankly, speechless in surprise.

"Go inside and rest for a while. Dinner will be served soon." Liu Dongmei took the initiative to pick green vegetables and pig feet from Tie Min's bicycle without explaining.

Seeing that Tiemin had not yet recovered from his surprise, he whispered: "My godfather has been discharged from the hospital."

"So fast," Ironborn blurted out.

Liu Dongmei's face was filled with a sense of accomplishment.

Tie Min walked into the room and saw Zhou Zhiqiang sitting up on the bed and looking at him coldly. His look was like condemnation, but also like torture: Where did you go, kid?

"Dad, you're back." Ironborn asked dully.

"Yeah." Zhou Zhiqiang responded.

He really wanted to open his mouth and curse, but Liu Dongmei was cooking in the kitchen, and Shengzi's sly eyes were staring at him.

"Don't be stunned, help me quickly." Zhou Zhiqiang pretended that he didn't know anything and gave the order to Tiemin.

When the baby was born, his father stayed at home at noon. He thought it was a rare moment of leisure and he was very happy.

After the family had lunch, Zhou Zhiqiang began to make more efforts to have a baby. He first sent the baby to the coal shed in the backyard, dug out four sleeper boards, and found several wooden frames to build a quilt grid in the outer room.

The so-called quilt grid is to use the distance between two walls to use a wooden frame as the base. A wooden frame is used as a support in the middle, and wooden boards are laid on it. The existing space is used to make a quilt that can accommodate bedding and other sundries.

space.

This is a project that Zhou Zhiqiang has designed long ago, and the wood is also ready.

His design was so that when Tiemin got married, the bedding and miscellaneous items in the inner room could be moved to the outer room, freeing up the inner room to serve as a wedding room for Tiemin and Wang Li.

Zhou Zhiqiang accidentally met Xie Guizhi, which made him angry and sent him to the hospital. He stayed there for nearly a month, and the project was forced to be shelved.

On the train home, Zhou Zhiqiang thought of this project. He wanted to provide Tiemin and Liu Dongmei with a space where they could quickly develop their relationship.

Therefore, the task of creating this space fell on Shengzi.

The dimensions of the wood have already been determined. All you need to do is use big nails to nail the wooden frame to the wall and then put up the wooden planks.

Poor child's small frame, he swung the ax and almost threw him to the ground.

"I'll do it." Liu Dongmei is really a strong girl. She usually does laundry and calculations, makes a fire and cooks, and she is not shy about doing hard work.

It took Liu Dongmei less than an hour and a lot of busy work to finish the quilt lattice.

Zhou Zhiqiang sat on the kang head and gave instructions. Seeing Liu Dongmei's cleanliness, he couldn't help but praise in his heart: Tie Min was really lucky to have met such a good girl in his previous life.

Even the hard work for the old men was done by her, just like playing, by doing it three times, five times, five times and two times.

"Go and make a pot of glue and stick the newspaper on it." Zhou Zhiqiang gave another order to give birth.

Zhou Zhiqiang cursed the child in his mind, saying that this rice plant that eats nothing and can't do anything can't even catch half of the winter plums.

Shengzi saw his dissatisfaction with his father from his eyes. He did not dare to complain, took a rice bowl, filled out a bowl of white noodles, looked at Liu Dongmei blankly and said: "Sister, how do you make the paste?"

.”

"You're eating for free, and you can't even whip it into paste." Zhou Zhiqiang did nothing else this afternoon except scolding him for having a baby.

When Liu Dongmei walked into Zhou's house for the first time, she didn't mean to show off, but she received full praise in Zhou Zhiqiang's heart.

She was really unambiguous. She cooked as soon as she entered the room, cleared the dishes, started to put up the quilt, helped the baby to finish the paste, and then it was time to make dinner. The whole thing was spinning so fast that he didn't even notice that she was tired at all.

Ironborn stood in the middle of the house, stupidly watching his son working as a foreigner.

Zhou Zhiqiang was unhappy. "Why are you still standing there? Come on, help me have a baby."

"Alas." Ironman put on his slippers and got on the kang. He followed the instructions given by his son, applying paste and gluing newspapers. His head was numb and he didn't know what the purpose of his father's design was.

Zhou Zhiqiang waited for Tiemin to finish pasting the newspaper. He put on his shoes and got off the kang, took Tiemin to the back room, closed the door and whispered: "Dongmei will live in this room tonight, what should you do."

"I..." Until this moment, Tiemin was still confused and didn't understand his father's intention. He thought about it seriously and said, "I'll live in a small room."

Zhou Zhiqiang suddenly stared and wanted to curse. Thinking that Liu Dongmei was still cooking in the kitchen, his voice could easily cause a chemical reaction. He suppressed his anger and whispered: "I've stayed with you all night, you..."

Tiemin just woke up from a dream. He looked at his father, smacked his mouth a few times, choked on his saliva and coughed several times and said: "Dad, I have taken good care of you for so long, but I am so busy at home.

,we……"

"She will be your wife sooner or later, why are you embarrassed?" Zhou Zhiqiang finally revealed the answer.

Zhou Tiemin finally understood.

From the time when my father was sick and hospitalized, to when Liu Dongmei walked into Zhou's house, everything was designed for him. You bitch Liu Shoucheng, you have been making trouble for a long time, so it turned out to be this purpose.

"I..." Tiemin wanted to tell his father that he could not accept Liu Dongmei, not for anything else but because she had a father who was a complete bastard.

What's more, he still has Wang Li in his heart who cannot be replaced by anyone.

As Tiemin spoke, he saw the panic in his father's eyes.

Yes, this is a big girl's house. She first serves her father with feces and urine, and then comes to the house and is busy without touching the bed. If Ironborn openly rejects her father at this time, not only will his father lose his face, but he will also be upset and angry.

Went back to the hospital again.

"Let's wait and see." The ironmen thought of a delaying strategy.

The anger that had reached Zhou Zhiqiang's forehead gradually calmed down because of Tie Min's words.

He sat Tiemin on the kang and sighed, "Dad is from here. He eats more salt than you eat grains of rice."

He fumbled around and wanted to smoke.

Tiemin went to the outer room, took his father's cigarette purse, returned to the inner room, rolled a cigarette for his father, handed it to him with both hands and said, "Don't worry, speak slowly."

Zhou Zhiqiang lit the cigarette and took a deep breath. It was very fragrant.

"Tiemin, you are the eldest in the family, you have to be a good role model for your younger brothers and sisters." This is a line that Zhou Zhiqiang has pondered over and over again after living in the hospital for nearly a month. "That Wang Li is just a good person.

It’s useless.”

"She may have done it. She can do anything outside the house." Tiemin wanted to support Wang Li. He believed that his father felt the same.

This is a rare opportunity. Tie Min wants to learn about the grudge between his father and Xie Guizhi from his father, so as to find a solution.

"As the saying goes, when you buy a pig, you don't buy a pen, but when you buy a pig, you must first look at the pen." Zhou Zhiqiang had been prepared for a long time. He knew that Tiemin must get an answer. Why was he so strongly opposed? Tiemin and Wang

Beautiful marriage.

He said: "Wang Li's father and I are brothers, but her mother... is just a loser."

When Tiemin heard this, he stood up suddenly and looked at Zhou Zhiqiang with wide eyes.

Uncharacteristically, Zhou Zhiqiang did not show toughness, but said sincerely: "Her father died at the hands of her mother, and I don't want you to do the same..."

Zhou Zhiqiang flicked the ashes of his cigarette and observed Tiemin's reaction out of the corner of his eye.

Ironborn stood there blankly, looking at his father's calmness.

How is this possible?

Wang Li's beauty was inherited from her mother Xie Guizhi's genes. No matter in which era, beautiful women are always popular.

Tie Min carefully digested his father's evaluation of Xie Guizhi.

In the railway residential area of ​​the town, there are several women who are called romantic women. Their distinctive feature is that they are neatly dressed, especially the design of their hair, which is particularly distinctive.

Xie Guizhi took all of them.

Not only is she clean and attentive and well-dressed, but Wang Li also likes to dress herself up like her mother, and she also keeps her home spotless.

In the early 1980s, women in small towns, no matter how old they were, no matter how ugly they looked, tried to avoid one thing. To use an old saying: eyebrows and sideburns were the so-called makeup. Wang Li was just the opposite.

Fortunately, Wang Li came to Zhou's house in the evening, and her father and mother were just happy and forgot to take a look at Wang Li's dress. Otherwise, they would definitely raise questions.

Although Tiemin was not disgusted with Wang Li's makeup, he still thought it was a waste. He once told Wang Li that she was very beautiful, so why waste money on cosmetics.

Wang Li's answer was very straightforward. She said: "I am willing, you have nothing to do with it."
