Chapter 194 Sense of Abstinence
Qiao Qingyu took He Xiuyu's briefcase, while He Xiuyu entered the gate of the family courtyard with two large bags. As soon as he walked a few steps, it suddenly became dark around him. Then he heard the guard at the door saying, "There is a power outage."
Now the base generates power by itself, and now the power supply in China is very tight, and power outages are common.
What impressed Qiao Qingyu the most was that on the night of New Year's Eve when he was ten years old, the Qiao family brigade had just pulled the electricity. In the past, they used to light candles for the New Year. The first time there was an electric light, the people in the village were so happy.
But just as everyone was making dumplings, the power suddenly broke down and suddenly fell into darkness. They were busy lighting candles and oil lamps. But such light was always worse than the electric lights hanging on the roof. They habitually ran out. Then they saw that the lights on Hejiatun across the river were brightly lit. Then they realized that only the Qiaojia Brigade had a power outage.
There is an electrician in the Qiao family brigade. He is on duty in the duty room. When the captain looks for him, he says that the circuit is broken. If you want to repair it, you have to wait for the day.
These people were extremely disappointed. They finally pulled the wires and had a bright New Year, but they still kept guarding the electric lights and lighted the oil lamps, and they felt aggrieved.
The switch mentioned in the past is really similar to the switch knife.
Then Uncle Qiao found that something seemed wrong with the switch. In his memory, he should have been facing upwards, but now that he has already come down, he quietly told the captain that they are not electricians, and even the captain dare not touch these things easily. People always have an inexplicable fear of unknown things.
At that time, Captain Sun had just taken office and had some people in his hand, so he asked Uncle Qiao to drive a tractor to take over the electrician from the commune.
Then the electrician pushed the switch upwards and the whole village lit up again.
But it was already past eleven o'clock, and it was almost the same on New Year's Eve.
Thinking of this, Qiao Qingyu burst into laughter.
He Xiuyu held two handbags in one hand, grabbed Qiao Qingyu's hand, and asked, "Comrade Xiao Qiao, what are you laughing at?"
"There was a sudden power outage. Did you tell me if the electrician pulled the switch off?"
He Xiuyu said seriously, "The electricity consumption has been very large recently and the power supply is insufficient."
Suddenly he remembered something, with a smile between his eyebrows, and he said as he walked, "Do you remember the fact that when you were a child, the electricians from the Qiao family brigade pulled the switch off because they couldn't go home for the New Year?"
Qiao Qingyu glared at her eyes in surprise, "How do you know?"
"That year, my dad and I went to Hejiatun for the New Year. I heard about it when I went out to pay New Year's greetings the next day..."
At this time, people have lit candles one after another.
Despite this, the surroundings were still pitch black, Qiao Qingyu smiled, "You have been to Hejiatun. I go to my aunt's house every year during the Chinese New Year, but I have never seen you."
He Xiuyu smiled, but said in his heart, why haven’t I seen him before? I forgot about eating so much candy from him.
Of course, since he can't remember this, he won't say it anymore.
The two of them entered the house in the dark and lit candles.
Qiao Qingyu hurriedly went to wash her hands, but the two of them had not had supper yet.
He Xiuyu took out the things in his bag and sorted them out.
Qiao Qingyu picked two persimmons, put some oil in the pot, stir-fry the chopped green onion, stir-fry the tomatoes, and then add water. It is unrealistic to stir-fry the dishes and stew the rice so late, so it is just right to make some dumpling soup.
Qiao Qingyu is very experienced in making dough soup. She uses water to make the dough well, then pours the dough into a colander and presses it back and forth with a wooden spoon. One by one, the pearly dough dumplings fell into the boiling tomato soup. After all, she beat an egg and a scent of scent instantly filled the kitchen.
Qiao Qingyu put the dumpling soup in two large bowls, chopped the pepper and coriander together, sprinkled with some salt and placed it on the table.
Eating these two together is a perfect match.
However, even if it was cool, the two of them were still sweating profusely. During the day, Qiao Qingyu dried a basin of hot water, which naturally could not be compared with the headquarters guesthouse. After wiping it simply, the two of them sat under the grape trellis to enjoy the cool.
Of course there are no grapes on it, but the leaves are covered with the entire grape trellis.
At this time, everything was quiet, and the electricity still did not come. The surroundings seemed extremely dim, and the stars on their heads became brighter.
After a day of trouble, Qiao Qingyu was a little tired.
She got up and went into the house to go to bed, and then He Xiuyu, who followed him, leaned against the door with his half-dry hair.
Of course, the door he leaned against was Qiao Qingyu's bedroom.
His eyes were staring at Qiao Qingyu.
Qiao Qingyu put out the pillows, pulled the curtains, then knelt on the mat, looked at He Xiuyu, and asked dryly, "You can go and rest if you are so late."
At this time, Qiao Qingyu realized that there were only two people in their family, she and He Xiuyu.
What did He Xiuyu want to do with this look?
She naturally knew the matter between men and women, but she was not prepared.
Qiao Qingyu felt sweaty on her back, and so on her palms.
He Xiuyu did not move, and was still leaning against the door. He had a lazy posture and handsome facial features, which was even more handsome than the big star decades later.
Especially wearing dark blue pajamas, it gives people a sense of depth and abstinence.
She knew that she had a great figure under her pajamas.
I feel a little dry.
He Xiuyu's voice was slow, "Comrade Xiao Qiao, don't you want to ask me?"
Qiao Qingyu thought for a while and said quickly, "How is your mother's body recovering?"
"I've been discharged from the hospital and have recovered well, but you've asked about this."
Qiao Qingyu took a photo of the mat, "What's the matter, He Xiuyu, it's so mysterious..."
He Xiuyu shook his head, as if a little disappointed, "You really have nothing to ask?"
Qiao Qingyu looked at He Xiuyu with a shiny look, "What do you want me to ask?"
Seeing that Qiao Qingyu was really confused, He Xiuyu pursed his lips, "Don't you want to ask me how to solve the problem between you and me?"
"You really solved it?" Qiao Qingyu blurted out.
"Don't you believe me, or do you not take this matter to heart?" He Xiuyu asked with some displeasure, his voice becoming a little low.
Qiao Qingyu hurriedly said, "The problems of our two families are not small problems. It's not that I didn't think it was because I didn't expect it to be solved so quickly."
Then he asked curiously, "How did you convince your mom and your sister?"
"Show facts and reason." He Xiuyu raised his eyebrows and said it lightly, "This matter is complicated as it is. It is actually very simple to say that it is simple, and it depends on what people think."
Qiao Qingyu deeply agreed, "Yes, this is the reason. If it is serious, it is a mountain that lies among us. If it is insignificant, it is actually a small river that can be crossed with one foot."
