Chapter 176 Bangchui's Mother
Chapter 176 Bangchui's Mother
Ran Qiuye's family is from the city and their family financial situation is quite good. They also sell fruits at home on weekdays.
But apples like this one are big, round, red and fragrant.
You can tell at first glance that it is very expensive and only the rich and powerful can afford it.
At least Ran Qiuye had never seen it, let alone eaten it.
Especially the refreshing smell, which is refreshing.
"Teacher Ran, please eat quickly. My cousin may not be back for more than half an hour."
"Here are apples, peanuts, melon seeds, fruit candies, and milk candies."
"Oh, there are some snacks here."
Yu Hongfang and Yu Hongyan took out all the snacks and desserts in their home, and the table was almost full.
Ran Qiuye was dazzled by what she saw. She thought her family was well off and that they were living a very good life.
When she arrived at Han Weimin's home, she realized that the gap between herself and Han Weimin was not just a little bit, but a world of difference.
In fact, it can also be seen from the clothes worn by Yu Hongfang and Yu Hongyan.
The clothes worn by the elementary school students in school are either patched or dirty.
Yu Hongfang and Yu Hongyan, although also dressed very simply, were not fancy.
But at first glance, these clothes are of very good quality and are all new. They have never been worn out, let alone patched.
Moreover, these two children have very good behavior and never show off in school.
"Teacher Ran, eat something to fill your stomach first."
"Wait until Sister Yushui comes back, then we'll cook and eat together."
Ran Qiuye couldn't help but take the apple and took a small bite.
It is crispy, sweet, and juicy, and very delicious.
"You guys are so young, do you still have to cook for yourself?"
In fact, in that era, it was normal for children to know how to cook.
Especially children from poor families have to grow up early. When the adults go to work, the children often have to do housework when they come home.
"When my father was around, he was very busy with work, so my sister and I often cooked for him."
"After coming to my cousin's place, we basically stopped cooking."
"My cousin will prepare everything for us. We just need to do some simple work."
"Tonight, we'll have white flour buns, braised beef, braised pork, and cold dishes."
"Wait until Sister Yushui comes back, we'll heat it up and it'll be ready to eat in ten minutes."
Ran Qiuye was very surprised at how good the food was.
Ran Qiuye originally thought that Han Weimin's family was so fully prepared because she was coming today.
But then I thought, my home visit today was a sudden one and I didn’t notify you in advance.
This shows that the food quality in Han Weimin's home has always been like this, which is really shocking.
Ran Qiuye also calculated that with Han Weimin's current income, the two jobs would earn him nearly several dozen yuan.
This is higher than the salary of the principal of their school, and many old employees who have worked for a lifetime cannot get this salary.
After waiting for a while, He Yushui came back.
Yu Hongyan introduced it enthusiastically.
"Teacher Ran, this is Sister He Yushui."
"She is also from our courtyard, and she is a very good student."
"She usually helps us with our homework, and now we live with her."
He Yushui greeted everyone warmly and was very happy about Teacher Ran's arrival.
I had heard from Yu Hongyan that Teacher Ran was a particularly good person.
"Teacher Ran, please sit down first. I'll go prepare food for us."
Ran Qiuye couldn't sit still, so she followed He Yushui to the kitchen.
"Let me help you do it, and learn about the situation of this family at the same time."
But in fact, there was really nothing for Ran Qiuye to do. All the food was prepared and all she had to do was heat it up in the pot.
He Yushui also talked freely.
"Actually, Wei Min and I have no relationship. We just live in the same courtyard."
"My mother died during childbirth, and then my father ran away to Baoding with a widow."
"My brother and I were left at home. We went to Baoding to look for my father, but he didn't want to see us."
"My brother is a few years older than me and has also learned cooking since he was a child."
"So he started working in our factory cafeteria early on and has been protecting me and feeding me."
"Originally my brother was pretty good, but genes are so important in this family."
"He's just like my father. He's also attracted to another widow."
"It's not quite right to call her a widow, because that woman's husband isn't dead yet. He's a cripple, but he'll be dead soon."
"Then my brother stole his salary and the food he brought back from the cafeteria and gave it to the widow's family."
"No one cares about me anymore. I don't have enough food to eat every day and I'm as thin as a bamboo pole."
"Brother Weimin felt sorry for me and helped me all the time. He even invited me to his home for dinner."
"Buy me new clothes and give me pocket money."
"Yu Hongyan, Yu Hongfang, and I all get 10 yuan in pocket money every month."
These ten yuan pocket money made Ran Qiuye stunned.
Five dollars is enough for a family’s food, but each of the three students has ten dollars of pocket money every month.
Many adult men, if they don't have a formal job, do odd jobs here and there and earn less than ten yuan a month.
The key is, can this be spent completely?
In particular, Han Weimin was too generous and did not treat He Yushui as an outsider.
Ran Qiuye asked cautiously.
"This Han Weimin is such a good man, but why is he doing this? Is there something wrong?"
He Yushui knew what Ran Qiuye wanted to say. She would usually hear some gossip, but she didn't care.
"That's really not the case."
"We just ate and did our homework at Brother Weimin's house."
"I go to my room when I go to bed at night."
"Originally, Yu Hongyan and Yu Hongfang lived with Wei Min."
"Brother Weimin thought it would be inconvenient for them to live together as they grew older, so he decided to live with me."
"We are just three kids. What can Brother Weimin say about us?"
"Yu Hongfang and Yu Hongyan do have a pension."
"But that's just a few dollars. Look at the food and things in this house. Which one is not the best?"
"That little money isn't good enough at all?"
After chatting with He Yushui, Ran Qiuyan had a more three-dimensional understanding of Han Weimin.
Yan Bugui is simply talking nonsense. A people's teacher should not focus on improving the quality of education.
All of them are focused on slandering others and elevating their own petty-mindedness.
If it weren't for work reasons, Ran Qiuye wouldn't want to bother with Yan Bugui anymore.
The dishes were quickly heated up, but He Yushui did not serve them.
He Yushui said embarrassedly.
"Teacher Ran, how about we wait a moment?"
"Brother Weimin will be back soon."
Ran Qiuye was not hungry either. She had just eaten such a big apple that her stomach was almost full.
"No hurry, no hurry, I'm not hungry anymore, let's wait a little longer."
"By the way, I heard from Yu Hongyan that the three of you can sing these nursery rhymes."
"It's really beautiful. Can you sing another song for me? I'll sing along with you and learn along with you."
Soon, there was laughter and joy in Han Weimin's home.
Xiaodang and Huaihua were leaning against the door, staring at the fruits and snacks on the table, drooling.
"It would be great if I could be Uncle Han's child. We could eat these delicious foods every day and not go hungry."
“And I can sing with them. They sing really beautifully.”
"Sister, do you know what a snail looks like? What does an oriole look like?"
"I don't know, I've never seen it."
"But I know what an apple looks like, and I also want to eat fruit candies and snacks..."
The two little girls kept wiping the corners of their mouths with their sleeves.
Qin Huairu came back and saw Xiaodang and Huaihua looking inside Han Weimin's door.
There was still laughter and joy inside, but I felt particularly uncomfortable.
Qin Huairu scolded angrily.
"What are you two doing here?"
"Didn't I give you a key to Uncle Silly's house?"
"Why are you looking at me instead of doing your homework?"
The two children felt very aggrieved, as they also lived in the same courtyard.
But life is indeed very different.
"Mom, we want to eat the Big Apple, too."
“We want to sing along with them, too.”
Qin Huairu was annoyed and pulled the two of them apart.
"They all look like losers."
But when Qin Huairu saw the laughter inside through the crack in the door, and saw so many snacks on the table.
I couldn't help but swallow my saliva.
The jealousy in her heart became even stronger. These things originally belonged to her, but now they became someone else's.
Looking more closely, there is actually another one named Teacher Ran, who is a very good teacher.
"You vixen, you said you were visiting my home, but you might be here to seduce Wei Min."
Qin Huairu cursed and was about to leave.
But then I thought, Banggeng is still being held in the police station. If I ask Teacher Ran to plead for him, maybe we can get Banggeng out.
Qin Huairu pretended to be calm, forced a little smile, and knocked on the door.
Yu Hongyan thought it was Han Weimin who came back, so she ran out to open the door. When she saw it was Qin Huairu, her face immediately fell.
"You are not welcome in our home."
After saying this, Yu Hongyan was about to close the door.
Qin Huairu wanted to pinch Yu Hongyan, but she held back.
"Xiaoyan, I'm here to see Teacher Ran."
"I just want to talk to Teacher Ran. Teacher Ran... Teacher Ran..."
Qin Huairu started yelling inside.
Ran Qiuye heard someone calling his name outside and came to the door.
Qin Huairu greeted warmly.
"Teacher Ran, it's me."
"I am the mother of a stick terrier?"
"I went to a parent-teacher conference. You should remember me, right?"
Ran Qiuye didn't remember anything at all.
"Who are you? Are you Bangchui's mother?"
Qin Huairu's face turned red and she almost vomited blood.
Yu Hongyan covered her mouth and laughed.
This cannot be blamed on Ran Qiuye. If I were Banggeng, I would be a poor student, often stealing, fighting with students or skipping classes.
There is no teacher in the whole school who likes stick jokes, and no teacher is willing to teach them.
Because Ran Qiuye was a good teacher, the principal put Banggeng in Ran Qiuye's class, which resulted in Banggeng becoming even more troublesome.
After staying there for a week, he stole toys more than a dozen times and destroyed the blackboard, tables and chairs.
He makes trouble in class and often bullies girls.
There was no way he could take care of the other students' parents who were making a fuss, so Ran Qiuye only taught Banggeng for a week.
There is no point in calling this kid "Banggeng"; it would be better to call him "Bangchui".
Qin Huairu said with a smile.
"It's Bangteng. I'm Bangteng's mom."
"Teacher Ran, I have always wanted to visit you, but I didn't expect you to come to our courtyard."
"Can I have a word with you? I just need your help with something."
Yu Hongyan was unhappy and stood in front of Qin Huairu.
"Why are you everywhere?"
"Teacher Ran is our guest today. If you want to invite Teacher Ran, you can invite him yourself next time."
"Brother Weimin will be back soon. We are going to have dinner together. Please don't disturb our good mood."
Ran Qiuye smiled politely and declined.
"I'm so sorry, Bangchui's mother... No, no, no, Banggeng's mother."
"I came to Yu Hongyan's home to do some home textile work today. It's really a bit inconvenient."
"If you have something to do, come see me another day."
Qin Huairu felt embarrassed and rolled her eyes.
"Why are you so proud? Being a teacher is great!"
"I came to you with good intentions to talk about something and to ask you for a favor, but you're so proud of yourself."
Ran Qiuye was also very unhappy about Qin Huairu's drastic change.
He Yushui and Yu Hongfang who were in the room also rushed out.
He Yushui was filled with anger when he saw Qin Huairu.
"Widow Qin, are you done for the day?"
"I could have ignored you, but why did you come to my house?"
"Do you have any self-awareness at all?"
Ran Qiuye also understood all at once that this person was the vampire widow who had made He Yushui's brother stupid.
It’s no wonder that with such a morally corrupt mother, she could raise a child like that.
Qin Huairu put her hands on her hips.
"Oh, He Yushui, you really think this is your home."
"This is Han Weimin's home. Do you know what the relationship between Han Weimin and me is?"
"When we were in the country, it was great."
"Han Weimin is my ex-boyfriend, and he likes me."
"She won't like a yellow-haired girl like you."
"And I'm telling you, keep your mouth clean."
"Who is a widow? My husband is not dead yet."
Jia Dongxu was in the room at this time, and he had been depressed all day.
Hearing Qin Huairu yelling like that, I was almost mad to death.
Jia Dongxu pounded the wall loudly, wishing he could break it through.
He Yushui was not polite either.
"Go back and have a look, or you will really become a widow."
At this time, Han Weimin came back pushing his bicycle and happened to come into the yard.
Qin Huairu immediately rushed over with tears and snot.
"Wei Min, those girls bullied me."
"You have to take good care of them."
"If this continues, I won't be able to live like this."
Han Weimin stopped Qin Huairu with the front wheel of his bicycle in disgust.
"I have nothing to say to you, mother fool."
