Xu Jingdong did the hardest work in the town - helping the cement factory carry cement bags.

At this time, he was covered in dirty ash, his hands were full of dirt, and a pair of liberation shoes could no longer see their original color.

Seeing Xu Zhinian, he was stunned at first, and then rushed up and hugged her in his arms.

As soon as he entered the village just now, he heard the long-tongued woman at the entrance of the village say that the girl fell into the river and her brain was broken.

His daughter grew to the age of sixteen, and it has always been his eyeballs, holding it in his hand for fear of falling off, holding it in his mouth for fear of melting, he didn't dare to think about it, if his daughter had three long and two short, how would he live.

"Don't spoil my eggs. Xu Zhinian finally broke free from Xu Jingdong's arms, afraid that he would be worried, so he hurriedly said: "I'm fine, I'm really fine." ”

She couldn't call out the "daddy", but she knew in her heart that this man was a good father.

Xu Jingdong took a step back, looked Xu Zhinian up and down, and saw that she was still a treasure girl with pink jade and beautiful eyebrows, her nose was sour, and she said: "Dad was almost scared to death, don't care if you are stupid or not, just live, go, go home with Dad!"

Xu Jingdong took a step, only to suddenly find that there was a big basket of eggs under his feet, for him who was poor, he had never seen so many eggs, let alone thought that his family could have them.

"Dad, the second uncle and the second aunt are good, they sent so many eggs to our family!" Xu Zhinian didn't tell Xu Jingdong where these eggs came from, she didn't want her simple and honest father to bear the psychological burden.

"I didn't expect them to have a time to change sex. Xu Jingdong muttered, didn't think much about it, carried the egg in his left hand, and pulled Xu Zhinian in his right hand and entered the house.

"Baoya, why are you back?" Song Shuzhi was holding Xu Zhinian's clothes on the kang and was stunned, seeing her come back, her eyes were full of joy and love, but in a blink of an eye, she was worried again - it must be the daughter-in-law of the second family who bullied her daughter and brought her back.

"Did your second aunt bully you, Baoya is not afraid, it's better not to go to her house......!

"Bao Ya Niang, don't guess, you see, the two of them brought us back so many eggs!"

Xu Jingdong put the earthen basket on the kang, Song Shuzhi's eyes were straight, the second family is the richest among the three brothers, but it is also the most angry, what kind of wind is this?

"I'm going to have steamed chicken cake. Xu Zhinian got into the quilt and coquettish, Song Shuzhi hurriedly took four eggs and went to the kitchen to work.

Xu Jingdong sat on the edge of the kang and gently stroked Xu Zhinian's forehead, the rough calluses grinding against her skin.

He still had a smell of inferior tobacco, but unexpectedly, she was not disgusted at all, but felt sorry for him, an honest father who handed over hard work, and fell asleep after a while under his caressing.

I slept in a daze again, and my two brothers came back.

The eldest brother, Xu Zhiqiu, is twenty-six years old and is an apprentice carpenter.

In the countryside, he should have married a daughter-in-law a long time ago at this age, but because his family was poor, he still had no partner.

Since he was 20 years old, he has been apprenticed to Ding Carpenter in the next village, and he has studied for six years, but the master still does not let him become an apprentice, and works for Ding Carpenter's family all day long, washing clothes, cooking, pouring urinals, and watching the children.

The second brother Xu Zhiqi is still studying, because his family is poor and goes to school late, he is twenty-one years old and still in the third year of high school in the town high school.

Fortunately, he had good grades, and in order to be admitted to university, he didn't dare to relax during the winter vacation, and followed the neighbor's coal truck to the town for self-study every day, and then followed the coal truck back at night.

In order to thank his neighbors for pulling him, he had to help his neighbors carry coal every day, and now he was completely black, not like a student, but like a hard worker in a black coal kiln.

The two elder brothers also heard about their sister falling into the water, and they rushed into the house to ask Xu Zhinian how he was.

"Baoya, are you cold, the eldest brother took the roasted sweet potato from the teacher's house, and it is still hot. ”

Xu Zhiqiu took out a steaming sweet potato from his arms, which he brought back from the next village at a trot.

"I won't go to self-study tomorrow, I'll take you to the health center for a check-up, don't fall into any disease. ”

The second brother Xu Zhiqi was cultured and careful, reached out and touched Xu Zhinian's forehead, and was relieved to see that she didn't have a fever.

"I'm fine...... Xu Zhinian blushed a little, he always felt awkward when a big girl shrunk in the quilt and was booed by two young men.

Moreover, her two brothers followed their father's appearance, clear and straight, with good eyebrows, although poor, there was no greed in their eyes, only simplicity and cleanliness.

Being watched by such two handsome guys, she was a little embarrassed.

"The second child is right, I must go to the health center tomorrow. ”

Xu Jingdong said as he took out a stack of hairy tickets from the pocket sewn inside the close-fitting autumn coat, carefully counted out ten yuan, and said: "Second brother, bring the money, the doctor will do whatever inspection he asks him to do, and let him take whatever medicine he takes, if the money is not enough, you go to the cement factory to find me, and I will find the foreman to advance some wages......"

"Well, I got Dad. ”

Xu Zhiqi carefully took care of the money, and the family sighed as if they had a tacit understanding.

Xu Zhinian saw that this family was too poor, so poor that a penny had to be broken into eight petals, but she also saw that her family was very good to her, and she was the treasure of this poor family.

As long as the family has love, what are you afraid of? As a full-level tycoon in the business world in her previous life, she is here to turn this poor family upside down.

......

That night, Xu Zhinian did not sleep peacefully.

Some bits and pieces of memories burst into my mind.

She remembers fainting at a celebratory dinner for the company's listing, and her boyfriend, who is also the company's deputy, used all the rhetoric to make her drink a lot.

And because she stayed up late for a long time, her liver had metabolic problems, and the excessive alcohol intake made her fall down and never woke up......

This nightmare is not over, and the next one will follow.

She felt like she was standing on the ice that was melting in early spring, and a girl her age had thrown her favorite rhinestone hairpin onto the ice — a birthday present from her dad who had been carrying a cement bag all day.

Xu Zhinian was young and vigorous, so he rushed directly to the ice to pick it up, but unexpectedly stepped on the ice and fell into the river......

She couldn't swim, and she quickly lost consciousness in the icy water, only vaguely remembering that she was picked up by a young man, who was warm and strong, and whose arms gave a sense of security.

However, when she was pushed onto the ice, she clearly remembered that the man scolded her - "This girl from the old Xu family is as heavy as an eight-month-old pig!"
