The next morning, Aunt Jiang arrived at Xia's house early in the morning, Xia Fanglian had just finished eating, she hadn't seen a stranger for too long, and she hid on the bed in the corner with a panicked face.

"Aunt Jiang, please take a seat." Xia Yao, who was washing the dishes, dried his hands, moved a chair and greeted him, while hurriedly turning around and comforting Xia Fanglian again and again, "Mom, don't be afraid, this is Aunt Jiang, not an outsider." ”

Xia Fanglian calmed down a little, but still shrank on the bed with a guarded face.

"Alas, your mother has taken medicine for so long, and her condition still hasn't improved?" Aunt Jiang looked at Xia Fanglian's appearance, and sighed again and again, how could a girl who looked very beautiful back then get this disease, and this life will be completely ruined, I heard that neurosis is difficult to cure, and it can even be inherited.

Thinking of this, her eyes when she looked at Xia Yao became a little strange, this clear and steady little girl in front of her might become like her mother in the future, it was really pitiful.

Xia Yao comforted Xia Fanglian, then hurriedly took out a glass of water, and said apologetically, "Auntie, there is no tea at home, only boiled water, you can drink some of it." ”

"You kid, what's polite to Auntie, don't be busy, sit down and talk to Auntie."

"Hey," Xia Yao responded, took an apple from the kitchen and washed it, "Auntie, I'll peel an apple for you to eat." ”

"You're welcome."

Xia Yao smiled, still sat next to Aunt Jiang and began to peel apples.

Looking at her young age peeling apples in style, and then looking at Xia Fanglian who was curled up in the corner and trembling, Aunt Jiang sighed again, "It's really a poor man's child who is in charge early, your mother is fortunate to have a child like you, otherwise how would she live this life." ”

"I think your mother was also a famous beauty back then, your uncle studied well and was admitted to a good university, your grandparents don't know how beautiful they are with us, a pair of children are so good, I don't know how many people envy him, who knows that he will become like ......this overnight" Aunt Jiang said thirsty, Xia Yao handed the apple to her mouth in time, and she took it easily, she was not greedy for this apple, but Xia Yao's respect made her feel comfortable.

To do her line of work, you have to be a warm-hearted person, ordinary people can't stand to face those troublesome trivial things all day long, only take that little bit of income, she, the community director, walks the streets and alleys all day long, coming and going in the wind and rain, needless to say, she wants nothing else, just the respect and recognition of the neighbors.

Xia Yao is young, but she knows gratitude, although the family is poor, she still cleans up and tidy, a little clearer than when Lao Xia was there, she came from a hard life, most of the children in that era can do it neatly, and now the children are not good, it would be good to clean themselves up, and expect those pampered young ladies and young masters to clean up the house?

Originally, she came here just to save Wu Meihua's face, but seeing Xia Yao's capable appearance, she was a little like her back then, so she really liked it.

"My grandfather rarely mentions things at home, and I don't have any impression of my uncle." Xia Yao smiled bitterly, saying that it is impossible to have no impression, and she also looked for her in her previous life, but all she left was a bad impression.

"Alas, Lao Xia is also bitter in his heart."

"What kind of man is my uncle? Auntie, tell me about it. ”

"Your uncle has loved to read since he was a child, he reads well, that's famous, there are several children in your textile factory compound who are about the same as him, and those children run around outside all day long, your uncle is different, he goes home to study every day after school, and your grandmother treats him like a baby...... Speaking of your grandmother, she is gone after you were born, so you shouldn't be impressed, right? ”

Xia Yao nodded.

"Your grandmother is a capable person, she was a famous beauty in the textile factory when she was young, her personality is also pungent and her eyes are high, and she doesn't know how to pick your grandfather, although your grandfather is good-looking, but he is too honest, and everyone gossips a lot at that time. Unexpectedly, after they got married, your grandmother was in charge of the house, and your grandfather let her do everything, and her tempers just complemented each other, and she had a good life. But your grandmother is a little bad, that is, patriarchal, your uncle was at home at that time like the young master, there is no need to do anything, your mother is young, she began to do laundry, cooking and housework, your grandmother is also eccentric to leave anything delicious to your uncle, your mother is a big girl and still wears the old clothes that your uncle retreated, I also said a few words to her at that time, but she didn't appreciate it...... Your child has a hard life, and he is too similar to your mother. ”

Aunt Jiang pursed her lips, as if she had formed a bond with Xia Yao's grandmother.

"If it weren't for me, my grandmother would still be alive, and my mother wouldn't be like this." Xia Yao whispered sadly.

"Alas, how can I blame you for that incident back then, no matter how you say that the child is innocent."

"Why hasn't the bad guy been caught yet, and no one has given justice to our family......" She has always wanted to get justice for her mother, but it has been too long, and there is no clue at all.

"Yes, I advised your grandparents at the beginning, how could you not call the police for such a big matter......"

"Didn't call the police?" As for the things before he was born, Xia Yao only vaguely heard about them from others, and he didn't know anything about those details, and he was stunned when he heard Aunt Jiang mention it today.

"But it's not, that matter is quite big, your grandparents don't know what to think, they refuse to call the police, other people may be for the sake of women's reputation, swallowed this matter reluctantly, but your mother's business is different, it is a few uncles and aunts in your textile factory compound who found your mother in a coma there during morning exercises, who doesn't know what happened to her like that? How can this be hidden? Besides, your mother is a good person who says crazy and goes crazy, even those people who haven't seen it with their own eyes can guess what happened? When it came to the incident back then, Aunt Jiang was also puzzled, "At that time, we all directly helped your family report to the police, who knows if your grandparents said that there was no such thing, and your mother was like that, your family refused to cooperate with the police to handle the case, how could people go on, so this matter had to be closed." It's because of this that your old Xia family completely fell out with the people in the compound, and they were kind enough to help you call the police, and your grandparents blamed others for meddling and scolding others. ”

I didn't expect that there would be such an episode in the events of the year, no wonder the people in the compound didn't want to see them.

"My grandmother must have been very sad at that time......

"That's not it, your grandmother is such a shrewd and capable person, although she said that there was no such thing to the outside world, but when she returned home, she fell ill all of a sudden, she was famous for saving face, what happened, her eyes were crying, and then she couldn't stand those rumors, I don't know who was angry, and a stroke passed. She's relieved, but it's your family's suffering. Lao Xia has enjoyed happiness in the first half of his life, and your grandmother is in charge of her at home and abroad, as soon as she leaves, he will panic, and he has done his best to take care of the two of you to this day. ”

"What about my uncle? He must have been in college at the time. ”

"Don't resent your uncle, when you reach the age of your aunt, you will know that brothers and sisters are different from parents and children, and he has no obligation to the two of you. What's more, your uncle has read a lot of books and seen a lot of the world, and he knows in his heart what is beneficial to him and what is a burden to himself. The year your mother had an accident, your uncle just graduated from college, so he simply worked in the capital and never came back. Now that he can call your grandfather to the capital to live with him, he can be regarded as having a conscience. Although Aunt Jiang said this, she still expressed her dissatisfaction with his uncle's family, "Your grandfather is also pitiful, his health has become worse and worse over the years, don't blame him for leaving your mother and daughter." ”
