"Dad, is mom going to give the puppy away?" Xiao Wenhui asked while sitting in Li Chu's arms, crying.
"It's not mom who wants to give it away, it's father who wants to give it away." This blame cannot be passed on to the daughter-in-law, it was originally his promise.
"I don't want it, Dad, don't give the puppy away, okay?"
"Hui Hui, if we don't send them out, our family will have too many dogs. Dad can't keep them alive anymore. They will need too much meat to eat."
"Gah..." The two children stopped crying at the same time.
"Dad, how about I eat less meat in the future and give it to the dogs?" After struggling for a while, Xiao Wenhui said with great determination.
"Yeah, dad, I'll eat less too."
Xiao Wenxuan sat in Ding Qiunan's arms and echoed what her sister said.
This actually made Li Chu look at his own children with admiration.
It's not easy for two little guys who love meat to be willing to give up some of the meat they eat.
The two children have seen dogs since they were born. Later, several dogs crawled with them all over the ground, helped them learn to walk, played with the children, and they often slept on the dogs' bodies.
It should be said that Wenhui and Wenxuan have a particularly good relationship with their family dogs. They love Wujiwu and especially love those four puppies.
Now that I heard that the puppy was going to be given away, it would be weird if I didn’t cry.
This is still a puppy. If you dare to give away three big dogs, you don't know what the reaction will be.
"Hui Hui, Xuan Xuan, the meat you saved is too little, it's still not enough for them to eat."
Now both children were dumbfounded. After being stunned for a long time, Wenxuan said cautiously: "Dad, can you also eat less?"
"That won't work. If I eat less, I won't have the energy to work. If I don't have the energy to work, I won't be able to make money. If I can't make money, I won't be able to buy meat."
These words confused the two children. Anyway, in the final analysis, it just didn't work.
Seeing the two children who had stopped crying and were about to burst into tears again, Ding Qiunan said quickly: "I will give away three of the four puppies. If you don't cry, I can consider leaving one for you."
!!!
This statement of suppressing first and then rising made the two little guys a little surprised.
"Mom, can I keep two?" Xiao Wenhui started to bargain with her mother.
Hey, you kicked your nose and hit your face.
Ding Qiunan flatly refused: "I can only keep one at most. If you are not satisfied, I will give them all away."
When Wen Hui saw her mother's serious face, she hurriedly covered her mouth, saying that she didn't want to say anything.
Li Chu put Xiao Wenhui on his stool: "Okay, let's eat quickly and don't talk about the dog anymore."
The next morning, after sending the child to the nursery, Li Chu took Ding Qiunan on his bicycle to the main hospital.
I have been busy from morning to afternoon, and finally completed all the procedures.
The main hospital gave them three days to deal with the matter at the hospital there, and they can just come and report next Monday.
Ding Qiunan even took some time to visit the nursery.
After he came over, he started complaining to Li Chu and firmly disagreed with sending the child over.
He said that the environment and hygiene here are poor and the nursery aunt is irresponsible.
When she went over to take a look just now, a little boy fell down the slide and sat on the ground crying. The two aunts next to him continued to talk about themselves as if they hadn't seen him.
Although children all need to be beaten, they are not indifferent.
Gu Qi
At this point, Ding Qiunan decided not to let his children come over.
After saying goodbye to Mr. Lin, the young couple pushed their bicycles out of the main hospital.
The car was no longer rideable. What was tied to the back seat and hung on the handlebars were all the newly acquired clothes of the two of them.
Each person has two summer clothes, two winter clothes, a shirt, leather shoes, an armed belt, a cashmere hat, as well as suede leather shoes and cotton-padded jackets and trousers for winter.
The certificate has been obtained, and the general hospital has given Li Chu the title of deputy director of the Department of Traditional Chinese Medicine, but he is indifferent as the deputy director.
Their salaries have also been set for them. This time the army ranks were reformed, and at the same time, their salaries were reduced, so that their salaries were the same as those of local cadres.
Therefore, Li Chu's salary has basically remained unchanged this time, except for an increase of ten yuan in job subsidies. His current salary in the main hospital is one hundred and eighty-seven yuan and five cents, and the salary in the health care team remains unchanged.
Ding Qiunan's salary has increased a lot this time and has become sixty-two yuan, which also makes her very happy.
"Li Chu, the nursery here is not good, what will happen to the child?" Ding Qiunan, who was still happy about the salary increase, became worried again when he thought about the child's problem.
"Just keep sending it over there, there's nothing to worry about."
"Can we still send him to the hospital? We have both been transferred."
"Oh, don't worry, they will definitely be sent to you. When I go to pick up the child later, I will go and tell Section Chief Wang of the Logistics Department."
Hearing what her husband said, Ding Qiunan became happy again and began to plan how to change her new military uniform after returning.
"Daughter-in-law, just change it a little bit. Don't be too exaggerated. This is a military uniform after all, not your previous work clothes."
"Oh, I know, the waist of those pants is too fat. It's impossible to wear them without changing them. I just tightened the waist a little and it can't be seen."
Ding Qiunan is still very confident in her craftsmanship. In the past few years, she has been making clothes for her husband and children, and she has been exercising a lot.
Instead of going back to the hospital, the two of them planned to go home and put down their clothes. There were too many things, and they still didn't get bedding.
As soon as I entered the alley, I saw Xu Damao wandering around in front of his house.
"Da Mao, what are you doing in front of my house?" Li Chu shouted.
Xu Damao turned around and saw the two of them, and it was obvious that he breathed a sigh of relief.
"Brother Chu, I just went to the hospital to look for you. They said you two were transferred away, and they didn't tell me where you were transferred. When I came here, there was no one at home, so I was worried."
Xu Damao walked over quickly as he spoke.
Seeing his anxious look, Li Chu smiled.
No matter how Xu Damao is treated by others, he is indeed nice to him, and this appearance is not an act.
"Da Mao, where is Xiao'e?" Ding Qiunan asked.
"Sister-in-law, Xiao'e is taking care of the children at her house. I came here today just to invite you two to have a meal together after get off work in the afternoon."
After saying that, Xu Damao looked curiously at the things tied to the car that Li Chu was pushing: "Brother Chu, sister-in-law, what unit have you been transferred to? How come these things look like clothes?"
"Let's go, Damao, let's go back to the house first."
After entering the room, Li Chu told him about work.
Listening to what Li Chu said, Xu Damao felt that his eyes were almost bulging out and his brain was a little exhausted.
"Is this still possible? If you join the army, you will be a cadre?"
Li Chu propped up the car, took off the things hanging on the handlebars and handed them to his wife. He also took off the things on the back seat and walked to the living room with them.
