When Ge Xiaozhu returned to Xujia Village, from the beginning of entering the village, she obviously felt that the eyes of the people in the village looked at her a little differently than before.

As for what's the difference?

She couldn't say it, but she just felt different.

From time to time, villagers who saw her greeted her.

"Xiaozhu is back?"

"Hey, Xiaozhu, your trail is okay! I really didn't see it before!"

"You've given birth to a good son!"

......

Wait a minute.

When she walked into the house, she suddenly heard the cooing of chickens in the chicken coop in the corner.

Since a few days ago, her chickens and ducks were taken away, these days, her chicken coop can be quiet, and suddenly heard the sound of chickens in the chicken coop, she was stunned, and subconsciously looked over.

Looking through the wooden fence of the chicken coop, she saw a few chickens in the chicken coop.

"Mom, you're back, you don't have to go to the polder tonight, do you?"

Daughter Ge Yuzhu's happy voice came, Ge Xiaozhu heard the voice, and saw her daughter running towards her happily.

"Where's your eldest brother?"

Ge Xiaozhu asked worriedly.

Ge Yuzhu: "Big brother, he's stewing soup in the kitchen! Duck soup, hehe." ”

"Duck soup?"

Ge Xiaozhu frowned, and hurriedly walked to the kitchen outside the back door.

In fact, Xu Tongdao, who was cooking soup at the mouth of the stove, had already heard his mother's voice, but he didn't greet him, because he knew that his mother would definitely ask him a lot of questions when he came back at this time.

But he doesn't like to explain.

After so many years of hard life in the original time and space, he had long developed a taciturn temperament.

Not necessarily, he generally doesn't like to talk.

He thought that if he faced his mother later, his sister should help him explain some problems to his mother, which would save him some tongues.

Footsteps soon came to the kitchen door.

His mother's voice also came to his ears, "Xiaodao! Didn't I tell you that those things are gone when they are gone? Why are you disobedient? What if those people beat you? You stupid boy!"

Xu Tongdao raised his head silently with a complicated expression, looking at his mother who was just in her early forties in front of him, with mixed feelings in his heart, before he was reborn, his mother was already in her sixties and had just passed away.

By the time she died, her hair had already turned half white, and her face was full of wrinkles.

Although the mother in front of her is a little older than her peers, in the eyes of Xu Tongdao, she is really too young.

Enduring the sour feeling in his heart, Xu Tongdao smiled slightly, and said lightly: "Mom! Don't you see that I'm fine? People are good at being bullied by others, horses are good at being ridden by others, our family is very difficult now, but the more this time, the more we can't be cowardly! By the way, have you had a fever?"

Ge Xiaozhu was a little surprised.

She felt that her eldest son was a little abnormal today, whether it was his expression or the tone of his speech, he felt like he had suddenly grown up overnight, so she frowned, looked at Xu Tongdao suspiciously, opened her mouth, and sighed: "But those people are not easy to mess with, you are only 17 years old...... Did they beat you?"

"Mom, don't worry! Big brother is fine, big brother beat Xu Hengbing!"

Ge Yuzhu comforted her mother in a brisk tone.

It saves Xu Tongdao some explanation.

"What? Xiaodao, you still beat Xu Hengbing, can you beat Xu Hengbing?"

Ge Xiaozhu was very surprised, and subconsciously stepped forward to pull up Xu Tongdao, who was sitting at the door of the stove, and looked carefully up and down, back and forth.

Xu Tongdao didn't struggle, let his mother look at him uneasily, he just reached out and touched his mother's forehead to see if her fever had subsided.

As soon as his hand touched her forehead, Xu Tongdao's brows furrowed, because he obviously felt that his mother's forehead was a little hot, and her fever had not subsided.

"You're really not hurt?"

Ge Xiaozhu breathed a sigh of relief, but he couldn't help but confirm with his son.

Xu Tongdao hummed, "Mom, do you still have fever reducer? Do you still want to go to Wei in the afternoon?"

Ge Xiaozhu: "I'm done with the antipyretics, but I'm fine, hmm...... I heard Xiaoyu's father talk about you, so I specially asked the captain for leave to come back, and I have to rush back in a while, so I can't make it difficult for the captain. ”

Xiaoyu her father?

Xu Tongdao thought it in his heart, and realized that what his mother was talking about should be Ge Xiaoyu and her father Ge Zhiping.

Speaking of which, he used to like Ge Xiaoyu!

But when he thought of Ge Xiaoyu at this time, he didn't have any waves in his heart, after all, for him, it was a long time ago.

Before he was reborn, in his life, although he had a bad life, there were several women he liked, and he was married once.

As for Ge Xiaoyu, who he liked when he was a teenager, it has long been a dusty memory in his heart.

Now that he is 17 years old, all he wants to do now is to lead the family out of the difficult situation and let the whole family live a good life.

As for Kudzu Xiaoyu?

He didn't have the heart to think about it now, and he didn't think she was important.

Xu Tongdao turned his face to look at the steaming pot lid, thought about it, took out a wad of money from his trouser pocket, took out two ten-yuan ones and handed them to his sister Ge Yuzhu.

"Damn's fever hasn't subsided yet, you go to Dr. Wang to buy some medicine for your mother and come back! Remember to bring an umbrella to prevent rain!"

In these years, the medicine for treating fever and cold is very cheap, sometimes only one antipyretic medicine is needed to reduce fever, and a fever reducer is about one or two yuan.

But if he has a fever, sometimes he has to buy some anti-inflammatory drugs or something, so he gave his sister twenty yuan to buy these medicines, which is definitely enough.

"Hey, I don't have to buy medicine anymore! What are you doing with this money? I'll be fine for two days......

As soon as Ge Xiaozhu saw that his son took the money to let his daughter buy medicine, he immediately stretched out his hand to stop her, but Xu Tongdao pushed her hand away, stuffed the twenty yuan into her sister's hand, and at the same time turned her head to her sister and asked her to hurry up.

The younger sister glanced at her mother, agreed, and hurriedly trotted away, and when she was leaving, she couldn't help but glance back at the pile of money in Xu Tongdao's hand.

She didn't know that her eldest brother had so much money on him.

"Alas!"

Seeing that he couldn't stop it, Ge Xiaozhu sighed, and then noticed a pile of money in his son's hand, which was actually hundreds.

"Xiaodao, where did you get so much money?"

"The two pigs that were robbed, and some chickens and ducks, will have to come back if they don't come back. ”

Xu Tongdao said, looked down at the pile of money in his hand, hesitated slightly, counted out six hundred yuan and handed it to his mother.

"Mom, you can take the 600 yuan and keep it for Xiaolu and Yuzhu to make the registration fee for the start of school. ”

Ge Xiaozhu subconsciously took the money in his hand, and asked hesitantly: "What about you? Your high school entrance examination results are coming out soon, right? In case you are admitted to high school...... Tuition ......"

When it comes to tuition, her eyebrows are full of sorrow.

Xu Tongdao smiled, his expression was very calm, "Mom! there must always be someone in our family to earn money, how can you afford the three of us to study? No matter whether I can be admitted to high school or not, I won't read this book anymore, I will find a way to go out to earn money in a few days, and I will come to Xiaolu and Yuzhu to study in the future!"

Ge Xiaozhu: "This ......"
