Chapter 427: Slap in the face
Old Man Xia glanced at Xia Xiucai, and he sighed softly: "Are you right to hold me, that's nothing." Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 InfoYou should think about your children for the rest of your life. ”
Xia Xiucai agreed in a low voice. After that, father and son didn't have much to say. Because he had to get up early tomorrow and go to Gushan Tun'er, Old Man Xia asked Xia Xiucai to go back early to rest.
That night, the summer solstice rested in the backyard. Old man Xia also talked to her for a long time, mainly guessing what kind of request the old man Tian's family would make when Xia Xiu went to the backer Tun'er tomorrow.
“…… His grandson and daughter-in-law are also decided, I think he still has some excuse to ask your father for money. "Old Man Xia said this, but he was actually very uneasy in his heart. Old man Tian, who is a person who has done everything, who knows what moths will come out this time.
"You can't pretend to be sick anymore. Xia Zhi smiled, "This time, it's not easy for any of them to pretend to be sick." My dad has to remember about my crescent sister. ”
Moreover, the main point is that Xia Xiucai can't take out the money even if he wants to.
Hearing Xia Zhi say this, Old Man Xia felt that his heart was spacious.
The next morning, Xia Solstice didn't eat in the backyard and went to the front yard. Xia Qiao also got up early in the morning, and the car he found was already parked at the gate of the front yard.
Walking into the hall, Xia Zhi heard the voice of the Tian clan in the house. When Sun Lan'er heard the news, she also came over to send Tian.
Tian wore a bright red cardigan today, and he was dressed up and down brightly. The eldest girl and the second girl also picked it up, and the two of them were also dressed up very well, and the clothes on their heads were all purchased by the Xia family.
Seeing that the summer solstice was coming, Tian instructed her to take good care of the house: "Take care of your brother and your brother." You're eating and drinking in the backyard, don't let your brother and your brother go hungry. ”
"My sister can't let us go hungry. Xiao Shu'er said immediately.
Xia Qiao also felt that Tian's tone was not very good, and in order to maintain the summer solstice, he also opened his mouth: "Mother, why do you have to cook for me and Xiao Shu'er at sixteen." Xiaoshu'er and I also have hands and feet, and we don't have much work now. Neither of us would be hungry without sixteen. Xia Qiao didn't feel that Xia Zhi was obliged to serve him and Xiao Shu'er to eat and drink.
If this was said by Xiao Shu'er, Tian could still scold two sentences. But when Xia Qiao said this, Tian only felt panicked in his heart, but he couldn't say the words of scolding. She could only throw the handkerchief in her hand.
"I'm saying something wrong right now. Blame me for being too talkative, thankless. ”
"Mother, I didn't mean that. Xia Qiao hurriedly explained.
"Gotcha, gotcha. Xia Xiucai came over to play the round, "It's not early, and it's too late if you delay any longer." ”
Tian closed his mouth at this time, and led the eldest girl and the second girl out first. Xia Qiao then took the snack box and wine jar and sent it to the car. Xia Xiucai fell behind, and he also instructed Xia Zhi.
"Sixteen, me and you~ Mother are not here, you take care of your brother and your brother. ”
"I see, Dad. Xia Zhi responded with a smile.
Xia Xiucai and Tian's words don't seem to be much different, but in fact, they give people a lot of different feelings. Xia Zhi ignored Tian, but was very willing to accept Xia Xiucai's entrustment.
Xia Zhi went to the gate to send Xia Xiucai and Tian's family. The carriage started, and the eldest girl and the second girl looked out from the curtain of the declining carriage. There was no joy on the faces of the two of them to go home.
“…… It looks strange and pitiful. When the carriage was far away, Sun Lan'er whispered to Xia Zhi. What Sun Lan'er said is naturally the eldest girl and the second girl.
"You can't blame anyone else. "The summer solstice is faint.
Let's not talk about the second girl for the time being, the eldest girl can clearly change her fate. But the big girl ruined herself.
Sometimes the terrible impact of the family environment is here.
Xia Xiucai and Tian left, which did not affect the mood of the three Xia Zhi brothers and sisters in the slightest. They were still happy, and they did whatever they wanted. Xiao Shu'er was also very happy, he asked Xia Zhi for instructions, saying that he wanted to invite his friends to play at home.
Father and mother are gone, the eldest brother will definitely go to the backyard to read, and the elder sister will not take care of it at home, the world in this family is his.
Looking at Xiao Shu'er's dog-legged appearance, Xia Zhi smiled: "You can't break things, if you mess up and bury it, you have to clean it up." If you promise these two, I'll nod my head. ”
"I promise, I promise. The little tree was full of promises.
"If you can't do it, you'll have to pay a heavy fine. Xia Zhi said again.
"Sister, I'm sure I'll do it. Xiao Shu'er said immediately. He also thought that he could continue to bring his friends to play at home in the future.
"Oh well. Xia Zhi nodded, and then took out some fried peanuts, fried melon seeds, pears, and snacks, and asked Xiao Shu'er to entertain his friends.
It is very, very face-saving to be able to invite friends to come to the house to play freely, and then bring out these delicious foods.
Little Tree's eyes narrowed.
"Have fun. Xia Zhi instructed Xiao Shu'er and went to the backyard.
Old Man Xia, Old Lady Xia and Little Black Fish waited for the summer solstice to come before having breakfast. Xia Zhi was still a little embarrassed, she forgot to eat breakfast.
After breakfast, Xia Zhi told Xiao Shu'er and Xiao Xialin that Xiao Shu'er was entertaining the big guys in the front yard. Little Black Fish and Little Xia Lin took Daqing over to play for a while and came back. The two little ones are quite envious of the little black fish.
The little black fish was unwilling to be left behind, but he also knew that it was impossible for Old Man Xia and Old Lady Xia to hide out and vacate the house for him, so he discussed with Xia Zhi and asked Xia Xiucai and Tian when they would come back.
"Tomorrow, it's going to have to be dark. Then I will have a treat tomorrow morning, sixteen, and I will use your east house. ”
"Don't make a fuss. Mrs. Xia gave the little black fish a slap, "What place can withstand your tossing." ”
Xia Zhi smiled: "Uncle, if you want to have a treat, why don't you discuss with my grandfather and grandmother, let's vacate the West House for half a day." ”
The little black fish looked at Mrs. Xia. It was Xia Zhi who said good things to Old Man Xia and Old Lady Xia, and the old couple agreed.
"Sixteen will definitely be more accustomed to children than anyone else. Mrs. Xia said this to Mr. Xia in private.
On the second day of the Lunar New Year, the Xia family also had an aunt and grandmother who returned to the door. June and Gu Yong came to visit the door. It has only been a few months since the last time we met in Fucheng, and June is a little whiter, but Gu Yong seems to have lost a little weight, but the spirit of the young couple is very good, and at first glance, they are going to have a good life.
June and Gu Yong first went to the upper room to kowtow to Old Man Xia and Old Lady Xia, and then saluted the little black fish, and then solemnly saluted Xia Zhi, and then met Second Uncle Xia, Second Aunt Xia, Third Uncle Xia, and Aunt Xia.
When saluting Second Uncle Xia and Second Aunt Xia, the attitude of the little couple was indifferent.
Everyone had seen each other, and Mrs. Xia had already brought hot tea and peanuts and melon seeds to come up, and warmly beckoned June and Gu Yong to sit down on the kang.
Old Man Xia talked to the little couple cordially, and first asked how June's parents-in-law were doing. The young couple replied that the two old men's health was better than in previous years, and they didn't suffer much this winter.
Aunt Xia, who was next to her, wiped the corners of her eyes, and interjected to say that she felt distressed when she saw that June was dark and thin.
June immediately laughed, and she cheerfully explained to Old Man Xia and Old Lady Xia, saying that it was thanks to Xia Zhi that she had lent them money in Fucheng. When they returned home, they opened a small grocery store according to the idea of the summer solstice. Then Gu Yong also bought a merchant picker and began to be a merchant.
“…… In the past, when I was busy for a year, I could take care of my mouth, and I didn't have any spare money in my hand, and I was afraid to buy oil, salt, sauce and vinegar. Now it's different......"
Their grocery store's monthly income has now stabilized, and it's almost enough to cover the family's expenses. Then Gu Yong was diligent and kind, and the merchant's business was also doing well. Now some people in the village don't buy other merchants' things, just waiting for Gu Yong.
“…… You can also have a little spare money in your hand, so you don't panic when you encounter something. ”
Perhaps because of the improvement of life, the body and bones of the old and young in the family have also improved, and they are not as easy to get sick as in the past, and they will have to pay a lot of money for medical expenses at every turn.
“…… He and his parents-in-law feel sorry for me, my sister-in-law and brother-in-law also respect me, and they don't let me do heavy work~ Do it, he is black and thin, and I am white and fat. Speaking of this, June's face flushed slightly, and he was a little shy.
No matter how life goes, the relationship between this little couple is really good.
June's words made Aunt Xia's face crackle. Aunt Xia changed her face next to her, and June didn't seem to notice it at all.
Both Old Man Xia and Old Lady Xia were happy for June.
“…… I said that as long as the family is harmonious and angry, they are all people who are going through the days, and they will definitely be able to run for the better in this day. Old Man Xia smiled heartily.
"My grandfather is right. …… Our family is especially grateful to Sixteen. June said sincerely.
"Sister June, I told you a long time ago. You should have come to our grandpa and grandma earlier, and your life would have been better a long time ago. Xia Zhi smiled, when she lent money to the young couple in June, it was also to make them grateful to Old Man Xia and Old Lady Xia.
"I know, my grandpa and my grandmother have been thinking about me. It's me...... What a face, I didn't figure it out earlier. I figured it out now. June said.
Everyone spoke happily, and June did not mention going to the East Wing. Aunt Xia mentioned it, and June pretended not to hear it.
Aunt Xia glanced at June, then at Aunt Xia, and the two of them got up and went out.
Old Man Xia and Old Lady Xia both saw that something was wrong. They all knew how Second Uncle Xia and Second Aunt Xia treated the young couple of June when they were in Fucheng.
If the young couple of June didn't come, it would be okay, they came, Old Man Xia thought that Second Uncle Xia and Second Aunt Xia had thought about letting June remarry because of their poor uncle, he was deeply ashamed and refused to speak for Second Uncle Xia and Second Aunt Xia.
Mrs. Xia looked left and right, then got up to arrange the meal, and wanted to leave June and Gu Yong to eat in the upper room.
"Milk, don't be arrogant. We have what to eat. June got up immediately, she was also a person who was used to doing work, so she immediately rolled up her sleeves and went to help Mrs. Xia prepare food.
Old Man Xia sat on the kang with Gu Yong and talked about the shortcomings of their parents.
June helped Mrs. Xia chop vegetables in the hall, and Mrs. Xia asked June what she wanted to eat. May and July came over and talked to June. June has a pimple in his heart for his father, but he doesn't want to be angry with his younger siblings, so he talks to May and July.
June is still thinking about her mother's family. She asked what she did every day in May and July, and asked Xia Zhu and Guo Yuhuan's family affairs.
"It's all good, then I'm relieved. June finally said, and told May and July to be diligent, "Don't let our grandma talk if you have anything to say, you have to have life in your eyes." "It means that May and July often come to the house to help Mrs. Xia with her work.
"Sister, you still need to say this. May smiled, and then naturally helped Mrs. Xia choose fungus.
After a while, Second Uncle Xia and Second Aunt Xia also walked back. Second Aunt Xia stayed in the hall, and Second Uncle Xia went into the East House. Then, Guo Xi and Guo Xi's daughter-in-law, Guo Yuhuan also came.
When Mrs. Xia saw this situation, she understood it in her heart, and she didn't say anything at the moment, so she bought a few more dishes.
Everybody works in one place. Aunt Xia talked to June, and June also responded, but she didn't say a word of superfluity, and she didn't take the initiative to talk to Aunt Xia. The situation in the east room is similar, but Gu Yong is an uncle after all, and he has to look at Old Man Xia's face, if he doesn't know the inside story, he can't see anything at all.
Mrs. Xia saw everything in her eyes, so she took advantage of everyone's inattention and persuaded June in a low voice: "It's your father and mother." ”
June sniffed: "Milk, I know." ”
And then it was just as indifferent to Aunt Xia.
For lunch, everyone in the Xia family ate in the backyard. The meal for my aunt was naturally very rich, and everyone was very happy. June and Gu Yong are going to stay at Xia's house for a night, and they will go back tomorrow. After eating and tidying up, June went to the front yard with the summer solstice.
Xiao Shu'er did clean up the house as he promised, but he could still see traces of the fart kid's play. Xia Zhi shook her head secretly, in this regard, she couldn't ask too much of a little boy of Xiao Shu'er's age.
On the summer solstice, please sit on the kang in June.
"A group of children have been making trouble all morning, Sister June, don't be too messy. "The summer solstice accompanied June to sit on the kang.
Six~month~ looked around: "It's not messy at all." My eldest aunt is still clean and neat. She and my uncle are both on the backer?"
"Well, I went in the morning, and I guess I'll be back tomorrow. Xia Solstice nodded.
The two talked a little bit about it, and June held the hand of the summer solstice ~ grateful for the summer solstice. "Your brother-in-law, and my parents-in-law, all of us in the family say so, and the most grateful person in this life is you. My father and mother are like that to us, if they leave others alone, they will definitely not care about us. Summer solstice, you have a good heart and a good head, and you will definitely be able to enjoy happiness in the future. ”
"Peace is a blessing, Sister June, I don't ask for much. Xia Solstice laughed.
"So those are blessed people. June laughed too.
Xia Zhi asked June if there were any difficulties at home. June shook her head: "It's much better now than before." In the future, I can always be like this, and I don't dare to ask for anything else. ”
