Chapter 7: The Night of the Moon

The two elders of the Xu family are well-known honest people, and they didn't care about giving birth to four daughters who were said to be out of the house, so they hoped that a few daughters would be good, and other relatives in the family also reminded the two that they would find someone to let the little Xu Jingjing take over, and the two elders shook their heads when they heard it, obviously they didn't want to make trouble for any girl.

"Mom and Dad, I'm back." Xu Xiuxiu, who was carrying two live fish, pushed the door in.

In the yard, Xu Xiuxiu's little sister Xu Jingjing was sitting under the pear tree in the middle of the yard to enjoy the shade, the teenage girl was fanning back and forth with a paper fan, and pouted when she saw Xu Xiuxiu come in, "Dad, Mom, my third sister is back, you hurry out to greet you, and they also brought you two fat fish!" Obviously, this girl is not very satisfied with Xu Xiuxiu, the third sister.

"Xiuxiu is here! Quick, come inside and cool off, the sun is poisonous outside! Mother Xu was fanning the hall with a banana fan, and when she heard the call of her little girl, she immediately greeted her, and when she saw the three girls, she immediately smiled like a flower.

"Mom, I brought you two fish, and they are still alive, so you hurry up and put them in the basin to raise them." Xu Xiuxiu rubbed the sleeping Xiao Chenguang with one hand, and choked with the fish in the other, so she immediately opened her mouth to urge.

"Why are you still carrying two fish back for now, what are you doing with your in-laws talking to you like this?" When a daughter-in-law is not as casual as a daughter, bring something back to her parents' house and score priorities, if the mother-in-law's family gets along well, it doesn't hurt to carry more, but if you don't get along well, you will be talked about good things and pulled back to your parents' house, no measure.

"It's okay, I also brought a fish to my mother-in-law yesterday." She was angry with Song's mother Liu Shuxiang, otherwise she would dare to carry the fish back to her parents' house in a bright way.

Mother Xu nodded reassuringly when she heard this, and then quickly found a large basin filled with water and put the two fish in the basin.

As soon as the fish touched the water, it immediately fluttered excitedly twice, "Xiuxiu, where did you buy this fish, it's so fresh, you carried it all the way and you're still alive." "There are more than 20 minutes of road from Songjia Village to Xujia Village, and it is rare that the fish can still be alive on this big day!

"Hmmm! The weather was hot and humid, and the stream in our village was stranded, and this fish came out for a stroll and happened to be met by me. Because of the reason why she fed the two fish the space spring water yesterday, Xu Xiuxiu was not surprised that the fish were still alive, nodded and answered, and then took Xiao Chenguang to the hall, she had to work a lot along the way, she was afraid that she would not be able to hold the little guy and throw him on the ground the next moment.

"Mom, Chenguang is asleep, I'll put him in the house and lie down for a while." Although she got married, she still kept her house in this house, and Xu Xiuxiu automatically went to the house without asking.

"Go ahead! Be careful not to wake him up, I just dried the quilt in your house yesterday! Mother Xu said with satisfaction behind Xu Xiuxiu, proud of her foresight.

Gently put Song Chenguang on the bed, and Xu Xiuxiu walked towards the hall while moving her stiff arms.

In the spacious hall, Xu Qinglian, the father of the Xu family, was repairing the old furniture at home, he had learned carpentry, these furniture were repaired decently, and there was almost no trace of repair, Xu Lao's father focused on the stool under his hand, until Xu Xiuxiu walked into the hall before putting down the hammer in his hand and looking up to rest for a while.

"Xiuxiu, I carved a small toy for Chenguang, you can take a look." The father of the Xu family took out a finely polished wood-carved pistol from behind him, "I deliberately polished it very smooth, and Chenguang will definitely not be scratched by wooden thorns when he plays with it." ”

In this era, there are not many children's toys, originally he had carved a little tiger and a little lion for his four daughters before, but his wife always disliked that these things were not suitable for girls' families, and gradually the father of the Xu family gave up the idea of carving toys for his daughters, but he really liked Song Chenguang's grandson, which was inconvenient to carve a small pistol secretly on his wife's back.

"It's so pretty, thank you Dad." Xu Xiuxiu took the small pistol and studied it and thanked her sincerely.

"You like that I'm carving some other small objects for Chenguang when I have time." When Father Xu saw that his three daughters really liked it, he immediately laughed happily.

Xu Xiuxiu nodded, then turned around and went to the kitchen to help Xu's mother.

Xu Xiuxiu also ate lunch at Xu's house, and only decided to go back to the village after the sun went down, and it took nearly forty minutes to reach the home with Chenguang walking and stopping along the way, the sun has also set at this moment, but the scorching temperature has not dropped much, for Xu Xiuxiu, who is accustomed to air conditioning in modern times, the summer here is undoubtedly a torment.

There is no entertainment in the countryside, and the village has just been connected to the electricity not long ago, everyone is used to going to bed early and getting up early and is not willing to sleep in the middle of the night.

Song Chenguang was young, and not long after dinner, he curled up in Xu Xiuxiu's arms and dreamed of Zhou Gong sweetly, and from time to time he smashed his small mouth, which was cute to death.

Xu Xiuxiu took the Jigong banana fan to fan the two of them, and while fanning, the eyelids gradually became heavy.

Squeak...... Creak......

Vaguely, Xu Xiuxiu seemed to hear the sound of the courtyard door moving.

The wooden door is in disrepair for a long time, and there will always be some noise between opening and closing the door, in this regard, Xu Xiuxiu has long wanted to change the wooden door, but she doesn't know how to open her mouth to Song Mu, after all, in this rural area, the door is the key to a room, and everyone will not easily replace it if it is not used.

But just now she seemed to faintly hear the slight movement of the wooden door, could she have heard it wrong? Xu Xiuxiu didn't dare to be careless about this, pricked up her ears and tried to listen to the sound outside the house, and she really felt that there were almost inaudible footsteps approaching the door, and by the bright moonlight outside the house, Xu Xiuxiu also saw a figure passing by at the window, and her heart suddenly raised her throat, and the whole person was completely awake.

Xu Xiuxiu broke out in a cold sweat all over her body, and her palms were also soaked, but she still gritted her teeth and gently got out of bed and put on her shoes, and at the same time took out a baseball bat from the space and clenched it tightly before she mustered up the courage to slowly approach the door.

Xu Xiuxiu, who was staring at the door of the house, felt as if there was a person standing at the door of the house, and the person was pushing against the door from the outside at the moment, and it was useless after half a ring. This may be due to Xu Xiuxiu's high sense of precaution on weekdays, she always has to lock the door and check it several times before going to bed every night before she can sleep with peace of mind.

The thief seems to have been prepared! Damn it!
