CHAPTER XXVIII

Lin Su'e was beaten back, but Zhao Guoying did not have the joy of the victor, she never thought that force could solve anything.

Thinking of the hardships that the three thin children endured in the absence of their parents, she wiped her tears while cooking noodles, Xiao Yan came in with a pile of firewood, saw that her mother was losing her eyes, and sighed, "Mom, we are fine now, you see that I can cook." ”

Dad Xiao was tinkling to repair the leaky doors and windows, and when he heard this, he said, "No, Xiaoyan won't be able to make a fire when we leave, but when you come back, you can actually cook the rice and make progress!" ”

Xiao Yan knew that Xiao's father was teasing her, you must know that she couldn't even cook before, but now she is improving!

So she straightened her chest and said, "That's it." ”

Xiao's mother also sneered, "No, our Xiaoyan is becoming more and more capable." ”

Xiao's father and Xiao's mother are both spoiled children, if it were an ordinary peasant girl, by Xiao Yan's age, she would have already grasped the farm work and housework, and there would be no work inside and outside that she would not know. But Xiao Yan really doesn't know how to do anything, only study, Xiao's father has always regarded urging her study as the first priority, and she has always lived up to expectations, her academic performance has been very good, and she was the first in the school when she was promoted to junior high school.

In the countryside, people have been admitted to university as a carp jumped over the dragon gate, but they will not force the children much, they have been pursuing a free-range policy, you learn well is your own, the future will also be your own, if you don't learn well, you will be honest at home farming, it is also good, and it is not impossible to live. I have to say that there is no need to do anything here, every qiē is fate.

Especially for girls, although they are not so patriarchal, they have always felt that girls are married when they grow up, and it is better to work at home for a few years honestly. Therefore, the Xiao family is an outlier, attaches great importance to children's learning, and has always been painful for their daughter and son.

Xiao Yan grew up in such an environment since she was a child, and she can be regarded as happy, if there is no future, the future road should be good.

Xiaohui was originally handing the hammer and the sheet metal to his father before and after being busy, and when he heard his parents praise his sister, he also said as if he was flattering, "My sister's cooking is delicious, especially the fish, it's fragrant!" As he spoke, he seemed to be hungry and sucked his saliva.

Of course, Xiao's mother didn't think that even if her daughter learned to cook, she would be able to be smart, she just thought that her daughter could cook well, so she didn't take her younger son's words seriously.

Over there, Xiao Gang was knocking and beating with Xiao's father, asking him to rest but refused, Xiao Gang has always been very keen on hands-on work.

Just like that, Xiao's mother's noodles were cooked, and the family ate them in the dim light, around a boxy table.

After the family had eaten, they planned to go to bed early, after all, Xiao's father and Xiao's mother had already been very tired after coming back from such a long journey.

The night is not deep, Xiao Yan can't sleep, so she wants to go into the space for a walk, and then study the various methods of the chili pepper, she learned to make chili sauce and chili noodles, go back and try to see how it goes, it should be delicious, otherwise a mere sauerkraut can't be so popular.

After studying in the space, the moonlight was still there when I came out, but I heard the parents in the next room whispering something.

She is now in a room with her younger brother, and her eldest brother is in a room with her parents, in fact, a big kang in the east house can sleep for a family of five, but she is getting older now, and living with her parents and brothers is a bit different, so the younger brother is still young.

Xiao Yan listened attentively, and Xiao Ma sighed and whispered, "I haven't made any money from this trip for so many days, and my home is about to be emptied, how do you say you can live in the future." ”

Dad Xiao didn't say anything for a long time, just when Xiao Yan thought he was asleep, Dad Xiao said, "What do you want to do so much, you can't be hungry after all, I'll go to the county to find a job to do, don't worry about the family, I'll go and bring everything back tomorrow." ”

He saw it just now, there are a lot of things missing at home, not to mention the small pieces of pots and pans, there is no thick quilt left, only two worn-out thin quilts are left, it is estimated that he feels worthless, the big wardrobe, quilt cover, wine cabinet is gone, these are the good wood that Xiao Dad and Xiao Ma specially found when Xiao Dad and Xiao Mom got married, so that it has not broken at all for more than ten years, and now it is gone, the rest is the broken wooden cabinet on the kang, and a broken wooden table on the ground.

If you want to say that these things can still be worth some money, but all the new clothes of their adults and children are gone, which means a few things, these clothes can be worth a few dollars, even if the children brought some when they passed, but they didn't bring him with the child's mother!

Dad Xiao clenched his fists, is this really when he is dead?

To say that Uncle Xiao didn't think about taking possession of the eldest brother's things at the beginning, everything has a process, at the beginning, of course, it was greedy for the things given by the eldest brother, and then the eldest brother left for a long time, and they became bolder, Lin Su'e also moved over to use it first, and then moved back when the eldest brother and sister-in-law came back, and it was not bad, but how could there be a reason to turn back at the beginning, and the people's homes were emptied as soon as they came and went, and no matter how secret this matter was, many villagers had seen it. I secretly know who the second uncle and second aunt of the Xiao family are, but this is a family affair, and no one can say anything, that is, after tea and dinner.

Lin Su'e has always been faceless and skinless, and she doesn't care what people think, she takes advantage of it the most.

Here Xiao Ma didn't think so, thinking that it was so good to want, although she beat Lin Su'e away today, but she was also angry for a while, and the fire reached Tianlinggai, now thinking about it, she had palpitations, and wanted to have a conflict with someone again, open and scold, she was tired and panicked when she thought about it, "Or." ”

"Don't say it! You can't have this kind of thought! Dad Xiao didn't wait for her to finish speaking, then interrupted.

He knows his wife too well, and in the other party's mind, 'suffering is a blessing' has become a deep-rooted thought, but some losses can be eaten, and some losses cannot be eaten.

Xiao's mother also knew that her idea was wrong, so she sighed, "Then don't fight tomorrow, it's shameless today." She felt irritated when she thought that such a shameless thing was done by herself.

Xiao's father ignored her, and Xiao's mother saw that the other party didn't care about it, so she talked about her livelihood again, "I'll go to see our family's land tomorrow, and I don't know what the second uncle's family has planted." ”

"What's the use of looking at those broken pieces of land now, it is estimated that they have already become a wasteland." Dad Xiao knew that his brother was a lazy man, and he couldn't grow a few seedlings on his own acres of land, not to mention his family's land, if it wasn't for the sake of making him treat the child better, he wouldn't have planted it for his brother's family before leaving, and he could get a few dollars if he rented it out!

"Then what should I do, I don't have a lot of money left when I come back, the children still have to go to school, Xiaogang is so old that I can't say that my daughter-in-law, I thought that I could make some money by going out for two years, but who would have thought that such a thing would happen, the money was not earned and it was wasted for so long, and the children are getting older day by day." Xiao's mother said in a hurry, and she didn't expect Xiao's father to reply, she had already nagged thousands of times, maybe she would only feel better if she said it.

Dad Xiao remained silent until he fell asleep.

Xiao Yan also lay on the bed for a long time and couldn't sleep, and she didn't tell her parents that she had made money herself, presumably her parents only thought that the quilts she bought were borrowed from someone, after all, they believed that a fourteen-year-old daughter could make money, and borrowing money would make them believe more.

Let's sue them tomorrow, Xiao Yan's parents are still very clear, and they don't seem to have any skills except for going to school, so she has to think about good words.

The next day, before Xiao Yan could figure out what to say, Aunt Feng came to the door.

Don't look at the dust and dust that came back yesterday, but Xiao's mother, who has always been hard-working, has already gotten up to brush the pot and make breakfast, and Aunt Feng came at this time.

Aunt Feng came in with a smile on her face, "Xiaoyan's mother, make breakfast!" ”

Yesterday, when Xiao's father and mother came back, she knew about it, and she took advantage of the time to go to watch, originally she didn't look too closely at Xiao's mother, who has always been submissive, but she didn't expect that Xiao's mother was actually angry yesterday, and actually beat Lin Su'e, who only knows how to eat and be lazy, and takes advantage of others, which can be regarded as very happy.

So as soon as Aunt Feng came, she greeted Xiao's mother with a smile, and Xiao's mother also hurriedly beckoned her in.

The two families live close to each other, and the relationship has always been good, especially with Feng Dong and Xiao Yan, the two children are generally old, and they have been playing together since they were young, and there are more contacts, but that is before the Feng family started to make a career, since Aunt Feng opened a small shop, the two families have become less and less, on the one hand, there is Aunt Feng's estrangement, on the other hand, of course, there are also their people who don't want to climb high, as if they are not people on the same road. In fact, they are also husband and wife, afraid that people will say that they are rich.

So Aunt Feng took the initiative to show her goodwill, Xiao Ma was still a little surprised, but it was only a moment, they didn't come back for so long, and it was understandable that the other party took the initiative to come to see and say hello, so Xiao Ma didn't expect that the other party had another purpose at all.

So when Aunt Feng talked about the new order for sauerkraut, Xiao's mother was confused, but fortunately, Aunt Feng asked Xiao Yan, and Xiao's mother watched her daughter talk about business with ease.
