Since Zhang Laohan went back, it has been some time.

The green smoke curls, and the birds sing and the flowers are fragrant. The sun at nine o'clock in the morning was not so dazzling, and it was even a little warm. Squatting on the bluestone slab at the door sat a middle-aged man, slightly ragged, holding a pipe in his hand, looking up at the sky, swallowing clouds and spitting fog. It seems to be enjoying it, and it seems to have something on the mind. Pipe? This is the sign of Zhang Laohan.

The clothes are not very neat, slightly shabby, and short in stature. The years have given her wrinkles, which are traces of hard work. Holding a bowl of kimchi and cooking noodles in his hand, he was walking towards Zhang Laohan. This is Xiao Mu's grandmother - the old man.

"Why don't you go eat noodles soon, you have to go to work later, and you're still smoking there, and you know how to smoke all day long. The old man complained.

"Don't say it, don't say it, I'll go, really, day by day, my ears are calloused. ”

This may be the love of the older generation!

"Hey, I said old man, why haven't I seen Xiaoying's mother and daughter for a long time, especially you, I haven't seen them yet. Why don't you take a moment to check it out?"

"Yes, it's been a long time, it's been more than a year, it's time to take a look, although the old man Li and the old couple are a little hateful, but after all, Xiaoying's mother and daughter are also our flesh and blood." ”

"Why don't we go tomorrow? ”

"Hmm"

On this day, the two went home early, preparing to bring Xiaoying's mother and daughter something.

"Lao Zhang, go catch a chicken, and get some eggs, anyway, we don't have much else, and there has never been a shortage of chickens and eggs. ”

"Okay, go right away. ”

At this time, Zhang Laohan remembered the scene of leaving Xiaoying's house last year, and remembered the sentence he promised to Li Laohan - Lao Tzu will catch two for you. Then he shook his head, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, and he was filled with a simple smile. Whether I'm helpless or ridiculous, that's unknown.

Early the next morning, Mr. and Mrs. Zhang set out on the road to visit relatives. Although it was a hike, the husband and wife talked and laughed along the way.

At nine o'clock in the evening, the husband and wife arrived at Xiao Mu's house. The two stood at the door, not knocking. The moonlight shone on the dilapidated tiled roof, the breeze was gentle, and a few tilly grass plants on the roof swayed in the wind. The closed door creaked in the breeze, and it seemed that the gate was also old.

"Old man Li, old man Li, open the door and open the door, Lao Tzu will return your chicken. ”

Old man Li heard someone shouting, and he also knew that it was Zhang Laohan. But he just didn't want to open the door, and he was still haunted by what happened last time. I thought to myself, this time I have to torture you for a while, so that you quarreled with me last time.

"Old man Li, if you don't open the door, I'll take the chicken back."

When Old Man Li heard this, he paid it back, got up immediately, ran out of the door without getting his clothes on, and shouted: "Come on, in-laws, don't worry." ”

Chirping~~

Old man Li opened the door and saw that Mr. and Mrs. Zhang had brought a lot of things, and they couldn't stop smiling.

"Oh, I said in-laws, you can come here, why do you bring so many things, it's true, everyone is farming, it's not easy. ”

"I don't know you yet, don't pretend to be confused here, I don't bring something, I'm afraid you won't let me in at the door." ”

"In-laws, what you said is not right, it makes me feel like that. Let's go, let's go, go in and rest, I'll let Xiaoying and Arwen get up and cook for you. ”

"Awen, Xiaoying, my in-laws are here, get up and get some food for them. ”

Xiaoying's heart warmed when she heard her father coming, because this feeling can't be experienced here, there is nowhere to complain about her distress here, some just keep working hard and complaining, and some are just disgusted and abused by her parents-in-law.

"Xiao Mu, get up, grandparents have come to see you, hurry up, aren't you talking all day about going to grandma's house?"

At this moment, Xiao Mu was sleeping soundly, and no matter how Xiao Ying screamed, she couldn't wake up.

"Forget it, forget it, let the child sleep, anyway, it's not like I'm going back now, isn't this just here, it's okay if I don't see him tonight"

Although the old man said so, he wanted to hug his grandson in his heart, but he couldn't bear to wake up Xiao Mu.

"Dad, Mom, the food is good, wash your hands and eat, after a day of walking, you should be hungry too." ”

Xiaoying accompanied Mr. and Mrs. Zhang to the kitchen, accompanied them to eat and chat. She wanted to tell all the hardships she had suffered, but she couldn't. Because this is at home, it will be heard by the parents-in-law here. She is very clear that she will be more sad in the future after being heard by her parents-in-law.

The next day, Xiao Mu got up early, because Xiao Ying told him that her grandparents came last night.

"Ah Gong, get up, Ah Gong, the sun is drying your ass. ”

"Hey, hey, Xiao Mu will run, she grows really fast, come, let grandpa take a look." ”

From the moment he met Zhang Laohan, Xiao Mu has been following Zhang Laohan, knowing that he only played with Lao Fu after breakfast, and he didn't know why, maybe it was because Zhang Laohan took care of Xiao Mu when Xiao Mu was very young!

"Hey, Xiaoying, you shouldn't be in the market today, I remember that it was on the 10th. ”

"Well, yes yes, it's street day today"

"Xiao Mu, do you want to play on the street, if you want, grandpa will take you there later." ”

"I think, Ah Gong, I want to go to the street to buy delicious food, buy toys. ”

"Ask your mother to find you a set of clothes, change and go. ”

"Xiaoying, hurry up and change the child's clean clothes. ”

"No, wherever there are good clothes, they are all torn. ”

"Don't you usually buy clothes for him to wear?"

"He doesn't go anywhere, he just wears it. ”

When Mr. and Mrs. Zhang heard this, they felt an inexplicable pain in their hearts, looking at the innocent and lovely Xiao Mu, their hearts were very tormented and distressed. ”

At present, the only way is to let Xiao Mu wear shabby pants to the street, and then buy him a new one to replace it.

"Xiao Mu, you just dress like this first, and then I'll buy you a new one when you get to the street, okay!"

"Well, Grandma, I listen to you. ”

Xiao Mu behaved very well-behaved and obedient. As everyone knows, only when Zhang Laohan and his wife come can he be so happy and so well-behaved. Because Old Man Li and his wife were not so good to Xiao Mu, they were more scolding.

"Xiao Mu, do you want to eat sand cakes?"

"What is sand cake, is it sweet, can it be eaten directly?"

Xiao Mu's eyes were full of questions.

"Hey, grandpa, isn't that grandparents, why did they come to the street? Xiao Mu pointed to the old man Li in the crowd and said.

"Yes, yes, that's your grandparents, they should have been on the street before us. ”

In a blink of an eye, Xiao Mu ran to Li Laohan's side.

"What are you doing here, why don't you stay with your grandfather and them, why are you here for me?"

"Grandpa, give me 5 cents, I want to buy candy to eat. ”

"What kind of candy to eat, didn't your grandparents just bring it to you, you don't need to buy it, there is still it at home, besides, I don't have any money, I just came to see." ”

No matter how much Xiao Mu died and came back to life, Old Man Li didn't give it, and he made Xiao Mu cry.

"Don't cry, don't cry, be good, don't cry, you tell me who bullied you, I'll help you beat him, and see if he bullies you in the future. Li Laohan, what have you done to the child, what are you doing with a child! Besides, he is your grandson, don't you have any benevolence?" Zhang Laohan scolded Old Man Li while coaxing Xiao Mu.

Who knows, Old Man Li walked away and ignored it.

Back at home, Zhang Laohan scolded Ah Wen fiercely.

"How do you usually come over, look at your father, your own father, your son asked for 5 cents, he didn't give him, and made him cry, what kind of man are you, Xiaoying was told by your parents, forget it, and do the same for your son, are you still a qualified man, are you still worthy of being the father of your child?"

Ah Wen didn't respond, just listened quietly to what Zhang Laohan said. I thought that I had indeed failed, and I couldn't even protect my wife and children.

"Dad, what did you do to Xiao Mu, why did he cry on the street, why didn't you even want to give him 5 cents, you are his grandfather, is this how you treat your own grandson? It is my shame to have a father like you, it is Xiao Mu's sorrow to have a grandfather like you, and it is Xiaoying's misfortune to have a father-in-law like you. ”

In this way, Ah Wen and Li Laohan's father and son quarreled for an unknown amount of time, and Ah Wen finally dared to refute Lao Li.
