Rebirth 80 Medical God Big Brother Divorce
Chapter 43: The Gap
"You wear shoes like this?"
He remembered the shoes that Qiqi wore when they met and on the day of the market. Although they were a bit old, they were not so worn out.
"Ah, these are old shoes that I don't wear anymore. You called me and I was in a hurry, so I put on the wrong shoes."
Xiao Geng's shoes were returned to her.
She really only has this pair of old and worn-out shoes now.
Although this man was her future husband, Qiqi still felt embarrassed to let a grown man look at her miserable appearance with muddy feet.
There was a puddle of water on the left side of the rock. Yan Chenbei held Qiqi and washed the mud off her feet.
Then he took out a handkerchief and wiped her feet clean.
Yan Chenbei wouldn’t carry her on his back, right?
Qiqi thought so.
Yan Chenbei took off his rubber shoes and put them on Qiqi.
"You go back first."
Yan Chenbei picked up Qiqi's old shoes with one hand, stood there, and let Qiqi go home.
"I don't want these old shoes anymore."
Qiqi stepped forward, grabbed the shoes and threw them away.
"I won't wear your shoes, I'll give them to you."
She was about to take off her shoes and give them to Yan Chenbei.
"You really want me to carry you!"
Yan Chenbei smiled. Qiqi felt embarrassed and lowered her head, pushing Yan Chenbei.
"Who asked you to carry me? Why don't you just walk away?"
"I'm leaving now. See you tomorrow."
Yan Chenbei waved his hand and walked forward without looking back.
Under the trousers was a pair of bare feet. Qiqi looked at them and tears gradually blurred her eyes...
But she didn't notice that in the shadows where she walked barefoot, small blood-red flowers bloomed...
********
When he came back, it was almost midnight. Qiqi was afraid of waking anyone up, so he climbed over the wall and a tree to get into the yard.
As soon as I entered the yard, I found the light on in my father's room and the sound of voices.
"What are you doing, wife?"
Before Qiqi could enter the kitchen, the door of the main room opened, and Dad and stepmother came out one after the other. Stepmother was holding a cloth bag, and Dad was pulling it from behind.
"You can't go. It would be terrible if you were caught."
"You coward, if I don't go out and steal some wheat, what will I eat tomorrow? I'll be starving."
"During the months of May and June, when there is a shortage of food, every family will go hungry. Wife, wait a little longer. After a month, the wheat will be harvested and the food will be distributed, and life will be better."
Qiqi then understood that it was her stepmother who wanted to steal the wheat that was about to mature in the field while it was dark.
She is the cook, and she knows better than anyone how much edible food there is at home.
There was only a small handful of white flour, only a bowl of cornmeal, and about three or four pounds of sorghum flour in the big cement jar in the kitchen.
This amount of food is enough for a family of seven to eat, even if they eat thin food and have to eat vegetables from the garden, but they cannot wait until the wheat harvest.
Now people lived on work points, and no one had extra food. They couldn't even buy it in the village.
You have to go to the black market at No. 8 Bridge in the county to buy food secretly, and the price of food is ridiculous.
Besides, Qiqi knew that her stepmother would be reluctant to spend the money.
To live a life of open-door business, money is needed for everything. You should always have at least two coins in your home to keep as a balance.
"Don't you know? The team has sent three young men to watch the microphone. It would be useless for you to go."
The cold water made Malanhua's energy completely disappear.
Yes, she is an old woman in her forties or fifties and has no charm in front of young men.
Even if she is willing to sacrifice her reputation, no one would care.
I watched my father push my stepmother into the house, close the door, blow out the lights and go to sleep.
Qiqi then walked out from behind the pomegranate tree, quietly entered the kitchen, lay on the bed, and thought about the current difficulties.
I was so worried that I couldn't sleep.
