Chapter 181: Reflection

Sun Wang scolded Sun Lan'er, and felt more comfortable in his heart, so he raised his chin and instructed Sun Lan'er: "Cook two eggs for me, then pick a basket of beans, and stew it with a spoonful of lard for your father and your brother." Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info stewed a little bit. ”

Sun Lan'er got the order, and immediately agreed yes, and then carried the basket to the garden to pick beans.

In the courtyard of the Xia family next door, Tian was coaxed by Xia Xiucai for a long time, and his mood finally settled down. Xia Zhi's children all went to Westinghouse to talk, and Tian finally remembered the two nieces who were taken away by her. Tian went to the door of the outhouse and said hello.

The eldest girl and the second girl heard Tian's call, and the two of them hurriedly wiped their faces with their sleeves, and then walked quickly to Tian's side. Tian had already washed his face, but he didn't apply another fat powder, and both the eldest and second girls saw obvious traces of crying on Tian's face.

Tian shouldn't be able to hide it if he wants to, so it's just like that.

The eldest girl and the second girl bowed their heads and whispered: "Aunt." ”

"Hmm. Tian saw the obedient and obedient appearance of the two nieces, and his heart ironed a little, "Come back to the house." ”

As he spoke, Tian walked ahead. The eldest girl and the second girl followed Tian into the house. Xia Xiucai was sitting on the kang, and when he saw them coming in, he greeted them with a smile: "Big girl, second girl." It's like in your own home, don't be inhibited. If there is anything, just tell your aunt. ”

The two sisters looked at Xia Xiucai's smiling face, and they both felt warm in their hearts. They called out to their uncle from the bottom of their hearts. The eldest girl also spoke to Xia Xiucai very respectfully.

"We've caused trouble for my aunt and uncle. If there is anything that Erya and I can't do, my aunt and uncle will be like our own children, and that is good for our sisters. This sentence was taught to them by the Jiang family.

"The two children are very sensible. Xia Xiucai smiled and praised the eldest and second girls with Tian's family.

"The two of them have heard of it. Tian said, meaning that the eldest girl and the second girl were very obedient. When she said such things at this moment, her tone was a little strange. Xia Xiu knew that Tian was alluding to the disobedience of several of his children.

Xia Xiucai didn't say anything, just smiled.

The eldest girl and the second girl both thought that their uncle Xia Xiucai smiled very well. In their house, no one gives them a smile. Old Man Tian and Tian Wang have perennial gloomy faces, and their smiles will only be given to their brother Dabao and their father Uncle Tian. Uncle Tian never paid much attention to them, and many times they felt that they did not exist in Uncle Tian's eyes.

As for the Jiang family, who really feels sorry for them, it is because they are burdened and worried about life, and they rarely smile at all. Of course, they also have an older brother, Dabao. Tian Dabao often laughed, but that smile didn't mean anything to them at all.

can smile so gently and smile so beautifully, they only know one person, and that is their uncle Xia Xiucai. Even in front of them, Xia Xiucai always has such a gentle and good-looking smile.

Their Gutian clan is really a blessed woman.

The sisters are fourteen and twelve, and they are not without illusions about their future lives. They know that they always have to get married. They never thought about marrying into a rich family, nor did they think about marrying into a noble family. If you can marry someone like Uncle Xia like their aunt, then you will not be a person in vain in this life.

The sisters once said such things in private. This is a secret that their mother, Jiang, does not know.

"The two children haven't eaten yet, so let's hurry up and have dinner." Xia Xiucai said to Tian.

Tian also knew that it was time for Zhang Luo's dinner. They only had breakfast at the backing mountain, and then came back in the afternoon. Even if they came back after noon, the Tian family would not prepare lunch. This is the rule of the Tian family's hospitality. Although over the years, they are the only guests of the Tian family.

Tian Shi, who is hungry or not, doesn't know if the eldest and second girls are hungry, she is hungry. Unlike the eldest girl and the second girl, who are used to eating two meals in the Tian family, the Tian family has been married to the Xia family for so many years, and they have long been accustomed to three meals a day.

"I don't know Zhang Luo to eat yet. Tian agreed, but his eyes looked in the direction of Westinghouse. As a result, she saw Xia Zhi, Xia Qiao, Xiao Shu'er, and Little Black Fish coming out of the West House and going to the back.

Tian's anger is not in one place. "This is going to the backyard to eat again?! Well, we've saved a lot of rations. He said so angrily that Tian was reluctant to let a few children go to the backyard to eat.

If it weren't for the fact that a few children were getting closer and closer to the backyard, and being pampered by Old Man Xia to get more and more bold, there would be no such things now.

"Probably not. Xia Xiucai said, "If they go to the backyard to eat, they will definitely have to leave a message for us." No matter what Tian said, Xia Xiucai firmly believed in this.

Although the children are young and not very obedient anymore, they are very reliable in talking and doing things. Seeing how angry they were in the backing mountain, they didn't forget to ask someone to bring them a letter when they finally left.

"It's all gone, it's for me to cook alone!" Tian said again, still a little puffy, but he didn't raise his voice.

The eldest girl and the second girl hurriedly said, "Auntie, we can cook, we can do everything." Aunt, you assign us, and we will make a fire and cook. ”

Tian looked at the two nieces: "Big girl, second girl, you come to my aunt's house, you are guests." Although Tian's tone was gentle, he didn't actually have much sincerity.

The eldest girl and the second girl hurriedly said that they were not guests. "At home, we do everything. I'm afraid that we won't be able to do a good job, so you'll just watch from the sidelines. My aunt taught us a lot, and we were out of the way, and we would honor my aunt and uncle in the future. ”

The latter sentence was still taught to them by the Jiang family.

Tian smiled at this time, and told Xia Xiucai that the two nieces were not only sensible, but also filial. "Who we are good to, who can not remember. Our Lao Tian family knows how to be gracious. ”

Xia Xiucai naturally wouldn't refute Tian's words, so he smiled and nodded.

Tian then took the eldest girl and the second girl to the hall to cook.

Xia Xiucai saw that Tian was taking care of housework as usual, and his heart was wide. He let out a long breath, feeling that this time the family wind ~ wave was over.

Actually, such a result is not bad. Xia Xiucai sat on the edge of the kang and thought silently, except that Tian was a little sad. But now Tian is also better.

You don't have to go to Tian's house in the future.

The Tian family is a big tiled house exchanged for his own daughter. Xia Xiucai believed that the Tian family was coaxed by the old man Tian and the Tian Wang family, but the old man Tian and the Tian Wang family ......

Xia Xiucai couldn't forgive them either.

He didn't like them the first time he saw them. But he didn't show it, but turned this dislike into love for Tian. He knew that the Tian family had such a father and mother, and it must not be easy for him to live in his mother's family.

Now, he doesn't have to go to see them anymore, even if Tian still makes up for his money. Money is a foreign thing, and what he wants is Tian's happiness.

……

At this moment, Xia Zhi was in the backyard, and Xia Zhi told Old Man Xia about the results of the negotiations with the Tian family just now. Old Man Xia was very happy. He also told Xia Solstice to take her time.

"Your father's money, you should treat it as if he didn't make it. If there is anything missing in the house, you will come to the backyard. Your grandmother and I take your uncle, and we don't use anything. ”

"Master, we don't need you to make it up. Xia Zhi immediately smiled and said, "With these products in the family, we can live well." ”

"Uh-huh. Old Man Xia nodded again and again, "I know, we will live sixteen." Leave your brother and your brother to you, and let them all listen to you. They dared not listen, and they came to me. ”

When Old Man Xia said this, he looked at the three brothers and sisters with a smile.

Xiao Shu'er immediately expressed his position, saying that he must listen to the summer solstice for everything.

Xia Qiao also said: "I also listen to sixteen." Sixteen will live, better than my brain. Listen to Sixteen right. From then on, I took the lead. Leave the work of the field to me. ”

"Brother, you can't do it alone. Little Tree and I definitely have to help. I'm also planning to work as a part-time worker when I'm busy farming. "The summer solstice said.

"You can ask for a part-time job. Old Man Xia said immediately.

Xia Qiao originally wanted to say that if they don't hire short-term workers, they can save a few dollars, after all, they will have a lot of places to use money in the future. But hearing that Old Man Xia also agreed, he didn't say anything.

"Sixteen," Old Man Xia discussed with Xia Zhi again, "Your father's temper is too soft~ soft, and he won't live yet." In the future, I'll have to pay more attention to you. ”

This is to let Xia Zhi not patronize his brothers and sisters, so he completely ignores Xia Xiucai.

"Master, if I can manage it, I will definitely manage it. Xia Zhi said, and then she glanced at Old Man Xia, "Master, you are too doting on my father." ”

"Ah!" Old Man Xia was stunned for a moment, and he didn't say anything for a long time.

Old Man Xia couldn't help laughing, so he turned around and didn't let Old Man Xia see her smiling face.

Old Man Xia sat there and pondered for a long time, and finally didn't say anything.

Xia Zhi looked at Old Man Xia's appearance, he should be thinking about what she said very seriously. She smiled to herself and came out of the upper house.

Mrs. Xia chased after her. "Sixteen, let's eat dinner here. There are a lot of dishes to cook at noon, and I haven't finished eating yet. ”

"Milk, let's go home for dinner. Come back here another day. Xia Solstice said.

Mrs. Xia knew that Xia Zhi had a plan, and she didn't force her. "In the future, if you don't like to cook or something, you can eat it in the backyard. Anytime. I don't have anything else to do at home all day, I'm happy to cook. ”

"I see. Milk, go back. Xia Zhi smiled.

When Mrs. Xia went back to the house, Mrs. Xia came out silently. Xia Zhi looked at Old Man Xia's appearance and knew that he had something to say, so he didn't rush to the front yard.

Old Man Xia hesitated, and finally walked to Xia Zhi's side.

"Your father...... His mother didn't come early. Ay. Your father was sensible when he was a child, and he let your second uncle do everything. I feel sorry for him. He studied well. As he spoke, Old Man Xia sat down on a bench at the door of the east wing.

Xia Zhi hurriedly sat along.

It is rare that Old Man Xia is willing to talk about the past and analyze his feelings for Xia Xiucai. Old Man Xia, Xia Zhi has respect for him, and one of the main reasons is that Old Man Xia will introspect himself.

"People say I love your uncle. Actually, the most distressed thing for me is your father. Your father is a motherless child. A child without a mother is bitter. That's why he tolerated the Tian family so much, in fact, it was all for his own son Xia Xiucai.

As Old Man Xia spoke, he became emotional, and his eyes were a little red. He talked to Xia Zhi about Xia Xiucai when he was a child. Xia Xiucai was polite when he was a child, and he was very sensible and able to think about others.

Even when Xia Zhi listened to it, he also felt that Xia Xiucai was very cute.

Although Xia Xiucai is now middle-aged, and his children are on the line, in the eyes of Old Man Xia, I am afraid that he is still regarded as the sensible, caring and lovely little boy who had no mother when he was a child.

After listening to Old Man Xia's words, Xia Zhi could only sigh with emotion: pity the hearts of parents in the world.

"In the past, I still looked at him to go one step further and glorify his ancestors. Now I don't have to think about it, I just hope that he can live a comfortable life. In the end, Old Man Xia sighed and said this.

"Master, I will try my best to take care of my father. Xia Solstice said.

"Good, good boy. Old Man Xia touched the top of Xia Zhi's hair with relief.

Xia Zhi said goodbye to Old Man Xia and did not return to the front yard. She went around to the lower hill and sat down under the tree to enjoy the shade. Xia Qiao said that she would live, but in fact, Xia Qiao himself was a person who lived. I didn't just come back, and I wasn't in a good mood, so I was thinking about the wheat in the field.

Xia Qiao took the little tree down to see the wheat, and Xia Zhi didn't plan to go home. She knew that Tian should be cooking, and she just didn't want to go back at this time.

She wanted to know that in her absence, it was completely up to the Tian family to make the dishes, and what the Tian family would cook to entertain her two nieces. Not to mention how long the eldest girl and the second girl will live in her house, how will the Tian family arrange this meal?

Xia Zhi was pondering when she heard someone calling her. She hurriedly turned around and saw Sun Lan'er standing next to the bean rack in the courtyard next door, carrying a basket in her hand.

"Sister Lanzi. Xia Solstice shouted.

Sun Lan'er glanced in the direction of her upper room, then put down the basket, quickly pushed open the fence door and walked out.

"Sixteen, you're back!" Sun Lan'er walked up to Xia Solstice with a smile on her face.

"I came back at noon. Xia Zhi smiled and told Sun Lan'er that because she brought Qian Yue to come back, she hadn't taken ~ time to find Sun Lan'er.

"I know, it's the Qian Yuelai who has seen the May phase, isn't it?"

"That's him. Xia Zhi smiled and nodded.

If it was in normal times, Sun Lan'er's curiosity would definitely prompt her to ask another question about Qian Yuelai, but now she was more concerned about the topic.

"You~ Mother brought their two nieces back, didn't you?" asked Sun Lan'er about Xia Zhi.

"Yes, Sister Lanzi, did you see the two of them?"

"Nope. Sun Lan'er shook her head, then lowered her voice, "My mother heard the two of them talking at the base of the wall. ”

Xia Zhi looked at Sun Lan'er's expression differently, and also lowered his voice and asked, "What did the two of them say?" (To be continued.) )
