Zhou Meng is not the person whose brain is full of steel bars and does not bend a little, after thinking about it, he asked Lin Xinzhen: "Is our sister-in-law about to be birthday?"

"The twentieth day of the tenth month of the lunar calendar. ”

Zhou Meng said to his son and eldest daughter: "Our family's wheat is planted, and there is no big work in the field, now it is enough to make salted peanuts with your mother and the two of us, your concubine's family is grinding flour, you go and help." Soon it's October 20, and your sister Tong should come back too. ”

Lin Xinsheng works in a machinery factory, and Lin Lu is in his third year of high school in the county seat, and he only comes back once a month. Lin Yuan is only eleven years old, he is in elementary school, harvesting sweet potatoes and grinding flour are heavy work, and Ye Hui can't be busy at all.

In fact, the son had already gone to his uncle's house to help harvest sweet potatoes and grind flour a year ago. This year, there was something about the eldest brother wanting to go back to Xiaofang, and the couple felt uncomfortable, so they kept pretending not to know. Now, let's let Shengwu and Dafang go to work first, one is to ease the relationship between the two families, and the other is to ask my niece for help when the time comes.

Zhou Yun's thoughts about her adoptive mother's family are insightful, knowing that they intend to repair their relationship with their biological parents, and privately ask to go together.

In the past, Lin Xinzhen would be worried about whether the timid Xiaofang would not come back as soon as she went, but now the youngest daughter thinks about the family like this, helps the family think of making a living, and also says that she will always be their daughter, she can't be stingy, chilling the little daughter's heart, and happily agreed.

Zhou Yun said: "Mom, whether it is my parents or you are all my relatives, they all want to be good for me, but sometimes if you don't say it well, it will cause misunderstanding." Anyway, I think you know that you are always the closest person to me in my heart. I will also be filial to you for the rest of my life. ”

The youngest daughter gave them another reassurance, Zhou Meng felt very relieved, and said: "We know that you are filial, Xiaofang, this time you go to Linjiawan, you can tell your parents how to make salted peanuts." It is not easy for his family to support a few students. ”

Zhou Yun said: "No, I have my own considerations." ”

Zhou Meng and his wife were a little surprised when they heard this, and thought that Zhou Yun was embarrassed to say it, so they persuaded her. Zhou Yun said very resolutely that there was no need, Lin Xinzhen said: "It's not early, you go to bed early, and go with your brother and sister tomorrow." Saying that, he made up his mind, and the adopted daughter thought about them like this, and they had to be doubly good to her.

Zhou Yun smiled and went to the basin to wash his face, feeling a sense of relief. The adoptive parents untied the knot on their side, and the biological parents made better sense of it, and the two sides could get along well, so she also went to a heart.

She scooped out warm water to brush her teeth, washed her face, wiped the Dabao SOD honey that was specially bought for her at home, and washed her feet with face water before going to sleep.

Zhou Dafang was already lying on the one-meter-two bed where the two sisters in the West House were sleeping, and when she saw Zhou Yun passing, she rolled her eyes at her and said, "Sycophant!" coaxes her parents to be happy every day, and she doesn't blame them for favoring her.

"Okay, I'm a sycophant, so you're my sister, what kind of spirit are you?"

"What white bone spirit, that's a bad person, do you say that your sister is a monster?" Zhou Dafang got up and scratched Zhou Yun's armpit. Zhou Yun also went to scratch her, and the two fell on the bed with laughter.

"Sister, it's a good thing to say that you are a white bone essence, white-collar workers, backbones, and elites are called white bone essences. ”

"Who knows if what you said really means, I have no culture to bully your sister, right?"

"I bully no one, and I don't dare to bully Sister Dafang. Zhou Yun had a smile in his eyes, "I really didn't lie to you, white-collar workers are white-collar workers who have a good working environment in the city, and those with high incomes are called white-collar workers, not to mention the backbone and elite, so the people in the city call them white bone spirits." ”

"The idea of the people in the city is really peculiar. ”

"Yes, the people in the city can play, referred to as the city will play. Zhou Yun held back a smile, now she can only communicate with her family like this. It's just that there are some words that only you know the meaning of, which is really lonely.

She misses Zhang Ze a little, when the two of them are together, he can always understand what she says and keep up with the train of thought, so they get along so happily. Hey, Zhou Yun turned over in bed, and when the conditions at home were better, she had to find a way to find Zhang Ze and help him live a better life.

Early the next morning, the three of them rode off on two bicycles after eating. Zhou Shengwu took Zhou Yun with Zhou Yun, and the back seat of the car that Zhou Dafang rode was decorated with sacks of cabbage on both sides.

The road out of Zhoujia Village was pressed out of a deep rut by a heavy car after the rain and snow, and after it was dry, it left a series of ditches of different sizes and depths, which were very difficult to walk, and both of them were careful to ride along the slightly better places on both sides, so as not to fall into it and roll over. It wasn't until after the village that the road became smooth.

Unlike when she came back from rebirth, she was dressed thick because of fever, but now the weather is really cold, Zhou Yun is wearing woolen gloves and a long pink scarf around her neck. This is all woven by Zhou Dafang with mohair wool, which is very warm.

Zhou Yun surrounded half of his face, revealing only a pair of eyes and forehead. As I walked far, the exhaled heat hit it, and even the yarn became warm.

Taking a breath of cold air, Zhou Yun felt a little novel. In fact, she hadn't walked back and forth on the village road on a bicycle for more than ten years, and she couldn't help but look around.

There were ditches nearly one man deep in many places on both sides of the road, and the thatch in the ditches was withered and yellow, and in some places there were traces of fire. The early wheat planted in the field had sprouted, and the shallow ground could not cover the earth's crust, one brown and the other green, like a blanket with horizontal stripes.

When they were about to reach the place, the three sisters saw a girl in her twenties standing on the side of the road, and she took off her long white scarf and waved at them.

There were many simple people in the township, and Zhou Shengwu and a few people stopped.

The girl was tall, her face was flushed, and she said with a shy smile: "I accidentally fell, my foot was broken, and the bicycle chain also fell off, can you go and help me carry a letter and come to pick me up?"

As she spoke, she lifted her pants for Zhou Yun and the others to see, her ankles were swollen like bread, and they were bruised.

At this time, the winter solstice has passed, the wind has a biting coolness, there are few people on this road, this girl does not know how long she has been waiting here, and the cold wind is blowing enough.

"Let's go to Linjiawan, where are you going? When he was outside, Zhou Dafang rarely spoke, Zhou Shengwu didn't say anything, and Zhou Yun stepped forward to answer.

Among the few people who spoke, the youngest one was the one who spoke, and the girl was a little strange, and the big eyes of the water spirit looked at the two brothers and sisters of Zhou Shengwu. The two nodded, and she said, "Not far, not far, I'll go to Liujiawa." "The two villages of Liujiawa and Linjiawan are two miles apart, and the land is next to the ground.

"It's so cold, don't wait. Zhou Shengwu parked the bicycle in his hand, found a small wooden stick from the ditch on the side of the road, went over and pried up the girl's bicycle chain, put it on in three or two times, grabbed the pedal and stirred it a few times, and the wheel turned rapidly.

The girl said in surprise: "Oh, I didn't get well for half a day just now, how did you get safe, just a while?"

Zhou Shengwu grabbed a handful of soil from the ground next to him, rubbed his hands together, removed the oil stains on his hands, and clapped his hands again: "If the chain falls off, you can't pull it hard, you have to follow its inertia after a few holes." ”

"Then you're also very good! It's really not difficult for those who know, but not for those who are difficult. ”

"It's a trifle, it's nothing. Zhou Shengwu grinned.

Zhou Yun knows this kind of obvious words, but she knows that the person who is grateful is better than the kind of person who helped her. Decided to take the other party or have a better attitude, she took off the scarf and showed her face, and said softly: "This girl, my brother has a lot of strength, let him take you, what do you think of me riding your bicycle?"

The girl's car is a Phoenix brand 26 royal blue beamless bicycle, small and exquisite, and Sister Zhou Yun rides a permanent brand black beam with beams, which looks stocky.

"You can arrange it. My little sister is so beautiful, my name is Yang Liru, how do you call you?" the girl said generously.

"My name is Zhou Xiaofang, that's my brother Zhou Shengwu, my sister Zhou Dafang!" said in his heart that vulgarity is elegance, and Zhou Yun was very calm when he said his name at this time.

"Da Fang, Xiao Fang, it sounds like two sisters!" Yang Liru chuckled, limping and preparing to come over, Zhou Yun hurriedly helped her. Zhou Shengwu also pushed his bicycle in front of Yang Liru, "Get on the bike!"

"Thank you!"

Yang Liru looked at the three sisters, listening to the name of the family, but the man didn't say it, the elder sister was shy and generous, she was completely an ordinary rural girl, but the younger sister, the duck egg face was delicate and soft, and the apricot eyes were full of agility.

She put her doubts aside and got into the back seat of her bike. The group set off. Talking along the way, soon both sides were clear about the other's situation.

Smelling the faint fragrance behind him, Zhou Shengwu rode a little cautiously.
