Reborn 1990: Running towards the life of a housewife

"Beta, Beta..."

The first thing Xiaowei did when she got up was to call Beta.

After she put on her red skirt and white shoes, Beta was nowhere to be seen at the door.

Xiaoyue sat on the bed and rubbed her eyes, holding a stuffed toy in her arms. She was awakened by her sister's voice.

Seeing Shen Xiaojun come in, Xiaowei hurriedly asked: "Mom, where is Beta? Why doesn't it come over when I call it?"

Shen Xiaojun straightened her skirt and gave her a cotton coat to wear outside, "The puppy is so small, how can it know that it is called Beta? Calling it Beta is not as useful as calling it Wang Wang."

Xiaowei stretched out her arms, "No, just call me Beta."

If I have another cat at home, let’s call it Shuke!

Yes, they are all creatures that mice are afraid of.

Shen Xiaojun tied her hair. Because the hairstyle for the performance was combed by a special makeup teacher, Shen Xiaojun simply tied her hair into a ponytail.

Xiaowei shook her head, "I want to go to school early and put on makeup early. Wang Mengmeng and I have made appointments."

"The performance doesn't start until this afternoon."

"The teacher said we have to rehearse in the morning."

Xiaowei didn't look nervous at all, there was only excitement on her face.

"Mom, remember to take pictures for me, take more pictures, and Wang Mengmeng, her camera was stolen and she can't take pictures anymore." Xiaowei arranged the work with her mother without any politeness.

"I know, I know, you said it last night."

Xiaowei smiled sheepishly at her mother and skipped out to see Beta.

"The hot water is ready. Let's wash your face and brush your teeth first. Then we'll eat soon."

"Know it."

Shen Xiaojun combed Xiaoyue's hair again and asked her and her sister to wash up together before going into the kitchen to make breakfast.

What I made this morning was rice noodles. I had scrambled eggs as toppings. The water was boiling in the pot. I just had to put the rice noodles in and blanch them. It was very quick.

Just when the rice noodles were put on the table, a child's cry came from the bedroom, and it was Yaoyao who woke up.

Shen Xiaojun let her two daughters eat first, walked into the bedroom, and picked up her son, who was aggrieved and had his little hands open towards her.

I changed the diaper first, shushed him, and then fed him milk.

By the time Shen Xiaojun took him to the table to eat, the rice noodles had swelled from half a bowl to a full bowl.

After the two daughters had finished eating, Xiaowei put the bowls into the kitchen and said, "Mom, I'm going to school first."

Shen Xiaojun raised his head, "Don't you have to wait for Mengmeng?"

"I called her in the alley." She couldn't wait any longer.

"Okay, be safe. Mom and my brothers and sisters will go watch your performance this afternoon."

After finishing the bowl of rice noodles that were swollen and tasteless, Shen Xiaojun asked Xiaoyue to look at his brother while he went to the kitchen to wash the dishes.

After finishing the work in the kitchen, I tidied up the house again, cleaned inside and out, washed the diapers that Yaoyao had changed in the past two days, and then put them in the washing machine and dried them.

By the time everything was done, it was already two hours later.

She was alone with her child, and it seemed like she was having a leisurely day, but there were not many things going on at home.

When the children were in class, she had to do whatever they wanted to do while Yaoyao was asleep. For example, if the house cleaning took a long time, she would wait for Xiaowei and the others to do it when they were at home.

Now that she has capital in hand, she has been trying to use the money to generate more money before housing prices soar so that she can buy more houses. If she uses the money to buy it now It will take many years before we can truly make a living by collecting rent.

This is why she is not buying a house now.

After the theft of the Wang family a few days ago, Shen Xiaojun was already thinking about whether to let Lin Zhe come back to develop.

Although their city cannot keep up with Yangcheng, its future development will not be bad. If they have the brains and ability, they will not be unable to live a good life.

What's more, Lin Zhe has only been successful in Yangcheng for a few years. The further he goes, the worse he becomes and he can't make a name for himself.

He was so far away, and it was impossible for Shen Xiaojun to take the children to Yangcheng. The emperor was far away, so she couldn't control anything, such as his leaky money bag.

If he comes back, his parents will be around and it will be good for the children.

With more than one person at home, she can free up her hands to do other things.

This was Shen Xiaojun's preliminary idea. The details had to be discussed with Lin Zhe. After calling him last time, he called back the next day. Shen Xiaojun didn't receive it. He only asked the canteen to send a message saying that he Very busy, I'll call when I'm free.

I don’t know what he is busy with. He is so busy that he doesn’t even have time to make a phone call.

The phone at home was installed two days ago, and Shen Xiaojun left a number on his beep machine, but the phone at home did not ring during the past two days.

Xiaowei did not come back for lunch at noon. The school prepared lunch, and the students who participated also paid [-] cents.

The New Year's Day performance was at two o'clock in the afternoon, and Shen Xiaojun and her children arrived at the venue half an hour early.

The venue for the performance was the school auditorium. Shen Xiaojun found a seat in the third row. This was why she came so early. She sat in the front so she could take pictures.

As for why she didn't sit in the first or second rows, she wasn't stupid. Everyone knew that the teachers and leaders in the school were sitting in the first two rows.

More and more parents came one after another, and Shen Xiaojun saw Li Shufen.

Li Shufen also saw her, came over and sat down next to her.

Her face looked very haggard, and she seemed to have lost several pounds in the past few days.

"Your Lao Wang didn't come?"

"I'm not here. I have a day off today and went to find connections. No one is urging me. I don't know when my case will be solved." Li Shufen sighed as she spoke.

"What did the police say?"

"What else can I say? A big tree attracts the wind. I said I won't buy any home theater. He insists on buying it, and he also wants to buy a good one. After spending so much money, it was wasted without doing anything. If I save money in the bank, how can I save it in the bank? So much loss!”

He also said that he shouldn’t lead everyone to trade in the stock market, “I know he made money in the stock market. If he had kept a lower profile and didn’t lead people in the alley to get rich quietly, this wouldn’t have happened!”

"And the 5000 yuan. If his second sister hadn't wanted to borrow money, how would we have kept so much cash at home? His second sister..."

Li Shufen took a deep breath, thinking that she was very dissatisfied with Wang Gang's second sister for borrowing money.

"She knew clearly that our house had been stolen and lost so much, but she still had the nerve to lick her face and continue to borrow money? And she said that Wang Gang had promised him... She didn't have the 5000 yuan to die? She was so thick-skinned! And his younger brother too..."

Li Shufen was full of resentment and kept talking about the faces of Wang Gang's relatives. Shen Xiaojun listened and gave a few words of advice. Every family has its own scriptures that are difficult to recite. It was not until the performance started that Li Shufen stopped talking.

The young actors were waiting under the stage to go on stage. After Xiaowei entered the auditorium, she tiptoed and looked towards the audience seat.

She saw her mother almost immediately, waving her little hands vigorously.

Shen Xiaojun had been paying attention. He saw her as soon as she came in and waved over there.

Li Shufen also saw her daughter and showed her first smile after entering.

After putting down his hand, he sighed: "What happened in the past few days has made us, Mengmeng, worried. I couldn't control my temper these past few days, and even scolded her a few times."

"Children are forgetful and will not keep it in mind."

The two of them stopped talking and began to concentrate on watching the show.

On the stage, the children were singing, dancing, or performing skits, and they all performed hard.

Some of the performances were particularly good, and some of them made people laugh out loud.

Although they were not professional, they received no less applause.

Soon, the first grade and first class program came on stage.

A group of children wearing red skirts and carrying small flower baskets stood on the stage.

Shen Xiaojun raised the camera, and the lens started to snap at his daughter!

"Shake it back and forth.

Shake to pieces golden

Reach out and bring in the glow of dreams

alley in the south

Push open the sentimental doors and windows

Young people sing with us

……

Let's shake the sun together

Don't miss that good time

My heart is with the morning breeze

Hometown under the sun

......"

Yaoyao, who was sitting in his mother's arms, also saw his sister. He pointed with his little finger and turned to look at his mother. He made an "oh oh" sound with his little mouth, just to remind his mother to look quickly, it's her sister!

Xiaoyue knew that her mother was taking pictures, and was afraid that her brother would not be able to sit still in her arms. While looking at the stage, her little hands were still holding her brother, not idle at all.

Shen Xiaojun felt that on the entire stage, his daughter was the prettiest, the best dancer, and the most standard!

Look at the little hand holding the flower basket with orchid fingers.

Other children will not be able to keep up with the rhythm, but my own children will not.

The other children's faces were timid and they didn't dare to smile. My child's white face had never lowered the corners of his mouth since he came on stage. His eyes were as crescent-shaped. Not to mention how pretty he was!

Shen Xiaojun kept taking pictures, and the camera almost always pointed at his daughter. Of course, he did not forget to take pictures of Wang Mengmeng.

After the children all went down, Shen Xiaojun said to Li Shufen. "I'll develop the photo and give it to you."

"Thank you. You can see how much it costs then."

Shen Xiaojun didn't say no, she handed in the paper and went to the photo studio to pay for it to be developed. One photo was cheap, but she took so many, it was a lot after all. She was a woman who stayed behind with her children and didn't want to fake it. Generous.

After all the performances were completed, Shen Xiaojun took several children to the school to take some good pictures.

Once the photo is developed, frame it and hang it on the wall.

Shen Xiaojun made the wall behind the sofa in the living room a photo wall, developed the photos taken at Xiao Wei's last birthday and hung them up.

On the way home, Xiaowei was very happy. She held her sister with one hand and Wang Mengmeng with the other and jumped ahead.

The little mouth kept talking non-stop, "I was nervous at the beginning, but I wasn't nervous at all after I got on stage..."

Wang Mengmeng also said: "Me too, me too. My father said that if you treat the people in the audience like cabbage, you won't be nervous..."

"One Chinese cabbage, two Chinese cabbages...haha!"

She turned around and asked Shen Xiaojun: "Mom, the teacher said that there will be a performance of young actors on Children's Day next year. Can I still participate?"

Shen Xiaojun pushed the stroller behind and responded with a smile: "Yes, yes, as long as you want to perform on stage, mom will always support you!"

"Hehe..." Xiaowei was very happy, "Thank you, mom!"

Li Shufen walked beside Shen Xiaojun, "Your Xiaowei is so lively. She is half a year younger than my Mengmeng, but she is like a little sister in front of my Mengmeng. Mengmeng always talks about Xiaowei when she comes home." "

Shen Xiaojun smiled: "Xiaowei is used to being a sister. In the past, when I was not at home, they lived with their grandparents. The old couple were busy with farm work and couldn't take care of them. It was Xiaowei who looked after her sister. Looking at her young age, she has a lot of things to worry about."

Li Shufen was envious after hearing this, "It would be better to have more children, so that I can have someone with me from childhood to adulthood."

The two of them walked into Tianshui Lane while talking. Li Shufen suddenly stopped talking and pointed in front for Shen Xiaojun to see: "There is someone at your door. It seems to be a relative of yours, right?"

Shen Xiaojun looked up and saw that it was true.

Xiaowei and Xiaoyue also saw the person sitting on the threshold.

"Grandpa! Grandma!" the two sisters shouted and ran over.

"It's your in-laws! This is my first time seeing them."

Mr. and Mrs. Lin Chengcai, who were sitting on the threshold, saw their children, smiled, opened their arms, hugged them, and touched their heads.

"Two old people are in the countryside. The last time we came here was when we were moving." Shen Xiaojun said and walked in with a smile while pushing a stroller.

"Dad, Mom, you're here." He handed the key to Xiaowei and asked her to open the door.

The old couple nodded. Zhang Simin seemed to have something to say, but was pulled away by Lin Chengcai.

Li Shufen smiled and greeted the two old people again, and asked Mengmeng to call someone.

"Call Grandpa Lin, Grandma Lin."

Wang Mengmeng cried obediently.

The old couple brought eggs and radishes and cabbages grown in the ground. They squatted down and took them out of the baskets on their backs. "You can try some of the ones you grow at home."

Li Shufen couldn't refuse the two enthusiastic old men, so she took two radishes as a token of appreciation, "Thank you, uncle and aunt, my family loves to eat radish stew."

After Li Shufen left with her children, the family entered the house.

Zhang Simin went to hug Yaoyao, and Lin Chengcai moved the things he brought to the kitchen.

At a glance, I saw that a lot of appliances were added to the house. It didn’t take much thinking to know that a lot of money had been spent. Thinking about it, her son had an accident outside and she didn’t know what to do now. She was at home with her child. Is willing to spend money.

Then look at what the family is wearing. You can tell at a glance that they are new and have not been seen in previous years.

"Mom and Dad, why are you here suddenly? Is there something wrong?"

Shen Xiaojun couldn't ask in front of Li Shufen outside. If she did, people would think that she didn't welcome the old couple.

Zhang Simin's expression was not very good, "I have something to do. If it weren't for something else, I wouldn't come."

Shen Xiaojun was stunned. Who had offended her?

You won’t be angry when you see so many appliances added to your home, right?

Shen Xiaojun knew her temper. After all, she had been a mother-in-law and daughter-in-law for more than [-] years. She knew that she was thrifty and liked to nag. However, she would never really lose her temper in front of her daughter-in-law. To say such blunt words, this situation is rare.
