"We can live however we want, as long as we have a place to sleep."
Aunt Qiao didn't mind at all that everyone crowded into the same room, and she smiled and talked about the past, "When the family was in trouble, the whole family lived in the same room. Your uncle and I took a group of children to sleep together. This bed has been sleeping for so many years."
"You and Brother Mingcheng don't sleep outside, let Xiaohui and Xiaofen come to sleep in our room, and you can bring a few boys to live in your room."
Hearing that the nephew said that he wanted to sleep outside the living room, Aunt Qiao disagreed. The two little girls could not live in the same room with the elder brother and younger brothers when they were older, so let people live in their room and drive the boys away Just go and live together.
"That... is fine, then I will listen to my auntie." Qiao Minglang didn't have any objection to this, so he went to live according to his auntie's arrangement.
After discussion, everyone decided on the allocation of housing.
Fortunately, he knew in advance that his aunt and sisters-in-law would come, so he prepared everything in the house in advance, so even if there were many people coming, he didn't have to worry about not having mats and quilts to sleep on.The weather is hot at this time, and I can sleep on the ground.
The house they rented was big enough, with trees planted outside the yard, and the wind blowing into the house from the outside would not feel too hot.
There are fans in both rooms. If you feel hot while sleeping, you can turn on the fan.
Qiao Minglang briefly explained to his aunt and sisters-in-law the things used in the house, and there is a small kitchen outside where they can get some food outside.The two big roosters brought by his aunt were put outside the yard, and they were squatting under a tree to take a nap.
"Okay." Aunt Qiao took a general look at the house, and felt that this place was really nice.
"I think they are all sleepy. I'll take them back to sleep for a while. Ma'am, you go back to sleep for a while." Knowing that everyone must be tired after traveling all the way, Qiao Minglang saw a few The child's spirit was not very good, so he told his aunt, and then took his brothers back to the house to sleep.
After everyone fell asleep, the whole room fell silent.
The two younger brothers were sleeping in the house. Qiao Minglang came out of the house and sat down on the sofa outside the living room. He leaned his whole back on the sofa, tilted his head back, and let his mind go for a while. to think about.
His little cousin had already driven his car back to the store, and the store wasn't very busy at this time, so he didn't go there with him.
When Chen Mingzhu came out of the house, she saw her brother-in-law sleeping on the sofa in the living room.In her eyes, this uncle is just a half-grown child, and her cousin is ten years older than the boy.
But it is such a child who is only fifteen or sixteen years old. Since his parents left, he has brought a group of younger brothers and sisters by himself, carried a family, and led them to start a business, and led a group of cousins. Come to the city to set up shop.
In the eyes of outsiders, it may be that her husband has the ability to take the younger brothers out.But everyone in their family knew that what they had now was brought to him by this little cousin.
Seeing the young man fell asleep outside, Chen Mingzhu walked over lightly without disturbing the young man.
The eyelids of the young man lying on the sofa moved, he opened his eyes, saw the figure of his sister-in-law entering the lobby, raised his hand to his forehead, Qiao Minglang moved, and continued to close his eyes, behind him Really fell asleep.
***
After three o'clock in the afternoon, the things in the store were sold out, and there were only some things left to pack.
At this time, when the business in the store was not busy, Qiao Mingshan handed over the store to others to look at, and went to the place where his little cousin lived to find someone.The door outside the courtyard was not locked, so he pushed the door open and came in. He heard the slightest sound in the room, and he said to himself, "Why is it so quiet? Where did this person go? Go to sleep?"
Hearing the sound of someone talking, Qiao Minglang woke up immediately, opened his eyes, and was relieved when he saw that it was his big brother coming in.
"Scared you?" Qiao Mingshan laughed when he saw his little cousin's frightened expression, and said, "The door outside your yard was not bolted, so I just walked in."
"Oh, maybe I forgot." Qiao Minglang realized that he had fallen asleep at some point. Seeing his big brother coming, he sat up from the sofa, asked his big brother to come and sit, got up and poured two A glass of water came over, "brother, drink a glass of water."
"Your aunt and sister-in-law are both asleep?" Qiao Mingshan was thirsty at this moment, so he took a gulp of water and poured it in.He was in a hurry to come over to his little cousin just now, and he forgot to go back to the place where they lived to take a shower and change clothes. Now he sat down and found that his clothes smelled of sweat.
After the small house he rented expired, he didn't continue to renew it. He moved from there to the house where his brothers are now living, and everyone lived together.
However, the place where a large group of men lived on their side was far less tidy than the house on the little cousin's side.
"It should be." Qiao Minglang pointed to a room on the side, and said, "My aunt and sister-in-law both live in that room, maybe they are still sleeping." The door of the room was closed, but I didn't hear anyone talking inside, and everyone inside should be asleep.
The room was full of women, so he thought it might not be convenient for the eldest brother to go in.
"Mingcheng, Conglin and the others are sleeping in the room here. Brother Datang, are you going to see the jungle?" Qiao Minglang pointed to a room opposite and asked Brother Datang if he wanted to see his son.
"Okay, I'll go and see that kid." Qiao Mingshan originally wanted to see his wife, but knowing that his wife and his mother were still sleeping, it was difficult for him to go in.
Thinking of his son whom he hadn't seen for more than half a year, the father and son met in a hurry just now, before they could carefully check whether the son had grown taller and fatter, Qiao Mingshan got up and went into the house to see his son.
Seeing that there was no more boiling water in the kettle, thinking that everyone might need some water when they got up, Qiao Minglang got up and went to the kitchen to boil water.
After a while, Qiao Mingshan came out of the house and carried out his son who had just woken up.
Qiao Conglin lay on his father's shoulder and groaned, with an expression on the verge of crying. He didn't know whether he was woken up by his father or himself.
But the former is more likely.
"Yo, grandma's grandson is awake." Mrs. Qiao opened the door of the house and came out, and saw the eldest son who came back hugging her precious grandson, but the precious grandson didn't look too happy?Is this recognition or what?
Aunt Qiao saw her son and asked, "When did you come here? Are you done with the shop?"
"It's just been a while." Qiao Ming replied kindly: "It's almost there. Mingliang and the others should come over later."
"Grandma." Qiao Conglin stretched out his hand to grandma, wanting her to hug her.
"Oh, that's good." Aunt Qiao reached out and took her precious grandson over, hugged her in her arms and coaxed, "Is it because he didn't wake up or something? This is your father. Didn't you sleep every day a few days ago?" Are you calling to see Dad? Why don’t you want Dad to hug you when you see Dad now? "
Qiao Conglin looked up at his father, turned his face away, and buried his face in grandma's arms.
Qiao Mingshan was sitting next to his aunt, and when he saw the brat turn his face away, scolding the brat in his heart because he looked so disgusted with his own father.But I didn't dare to tell his mother that he accidentally woke her up, the boy was afraid that he hated him in his heart.Such a vengeance at such a young age!
Qiao Minglang came in with the boiled water, poured a cup of warm water for the aunt, and said, "Drink the water, aunt."
"Hey, good. Come on, dear grandson, drink some water." Mrs. Qiao held up the glass and coaxed the eldest grandson to drink water.
Qiao Conglin was hugged and coaxed by his grandma, drinking water in small sips.
"Mother, don't spoil him all the time. He is so big and needs to be hugged. Let him sit and drink water by himself." Seeing his mother coaxing his son like this, Qiao Mingshan stretched out his hand to pat his son's leg , I feel that my son is so squeamish and really deserves to be beaten.
Qiao Conglin raised his foot to kick his own father, but was held down by his own grandma.
"This is not allowed, this is your father, kicking is not allowed." Aunt Qiao educated her grandson, glared at her son, and asked, "What's wrong with me doting on my eldest grandson, when you were young, weren't you Be spoiled by me."
Now she is not allowed to spoil her grandson, what's the matter?
Qiao Mingshan touched his nose, but was speechless.
The people in the house also woke up when they heard the sound outside.
When Chen Mingzhu came out of the house, she saw her husband coming, saw her son being held in A Niang's arms, and reached out to pick him up.Seeing his wife waking up from sleep, Boss Qiao finally showed a smile on his face, a 120-degree change from his attitude towards his son just now.
When all the adults and children in the room woke up, other people also came from the store, and the whole room became lively.
"When did you and A Niang arrive?" Seeing his wife and child coming, Qiao Mingliang was holding his son and talking to his wife with a happy face.
The couple haven't seen each other for a long time, and when they meet, they have endless things to say.
Qin Yun replied: "At noon, Mingyong and Minglang picked us up."
The living room, which was originally quite large, became cramped now that there were so many people, but everyone didn't mind anything, they just stood and talked without a stool.After waking up, the children were in good spirits, running around the house to catch up.
"Let's go out to eat." Seeing that it was almost time, Qiao Mingshan called everyone to go out to eat together.
Thinking of going out to eat would cost more money, Aunt Qiao felt very reluctant, and said: "We can cook two dishes by ourselves, so there is no need to go out to eat."
"How can this be the same? You guys finally came here and went out to eat." Qiao Mingshan pushed his mother to go out, not caring about the money for eating out.
Aunt Qiao said she couldn't go out, but she was followed by a few boys who were half-led and half-led.
A group of people packed their things and went outside...
