Family around
Xuanxuan went home for dinner every day, and when school was out at noon, she and Chen Lingwei said goodbye at the school gate.
As soon as I walked to the door of the community, I saw a little girl walking slowly on the road with a small schoolbag. With two ponytails, the head flower trembles and trembles with walking, which is very cute.
Xuan Xuan happily shouted, "Lingling, wait for me." ”
Xuan Lingling turned around and saw her sister calling her from behind, so she hurriedly stopped and waited for her sister in place. Xuan Xuan happily ran over and saw his cousin, who was suddenly more than ten years younger, and couldn't help but feel funny, it was really a long time since he had seen such a Q sister.
Cousin Xuan Lingling is the daughter of the uncle's family, and the uncle married late, so Lingling is three years younger than her.
The relationship between the two is extremely good, in her previous life, when she was in college, the two of them often asked to play together. It's just that after they worked, there were fewer opportunities to see each other, but they still kept in touch.
"Sister, are you also handing out books today? Have you gone to class!" Xuan Lingling is particularly dependent on her cousin Xuan Xuan, and there are only two little girls in her father's generation, who have been going to school and leaving school hand in hand with her sister since childhood. Because I went to my grandmother's house during the summer vacation, my grandmother sent me directly to the school this morning to get the book, and I went back to my grandfather for dinner at noon.
"yes, but I have class this afternoon. Xuan Xuan touched the two braids on her cousin's head, she hadn't seen her cousin with her hair tied for a long time, and her hand stroked her sister's hair, like a big orange that teased Xuan Lingling's family in her previous life.
remembered that in her previous life, Xuan Lingling did not protect her skin well when she was an adolescent, which led to a large area of acne on her face later.
A lively and cheerful girl who has low self-esteem because of skin problems. So I rarely tie my hair up, and I always get used to hiding my emotions with my thick bangs.
Now seeing the innocent and lovely cousin in front of him, Xuan Xuan thought that he must remind his cousin to do a good job of skin care, but she can't be let lose sight of skin problems and become the same as in her previous life, after all, a beautiful face and a smart mind are equally important.
Just as he was thinking about it, he heard Xuan Lingling sigh like a little adult.
"Alas~" Xuan Lingling's two delicate eyebrows were twisted.
"What's wrong? Are you still wronged at your grandmother's house?" Xuan Xuan said as he looked at his sister who suddenly sighed in front of him.
"No, I just thought about what my grandmother told me when she sent me here today. Xuan Lingling was upset when she remembered what her grandmother told her on the way to school.
"About your mother, or about your aunt?" Xuan Xuan was close to his sister in his previous life, and he naturally knew everything about her family.
"Both. Xuan Lingling raised her head and looked at her sister who was like a god, "She asked me to tell my mother that I wanted a little brother." "Xuan Lingling's grandmother is still the thinking of the older generation, and she thinks that the old Xuan family can't live without men.
Or did she know in advance that the ancestral house of the Xuanxuan family was going to be demolished?
Unlikely, it's all going to happen next summer. But Xuanxuan, who didn't believe in ghosts and gods, had to re-understand the order of this world after experiencing rebirth herself.
It wasn't until Xuan Lingling pulled her sleeve that Xuan Xuan pulled her head out of her thoughts.
"What's wrong?" Xuan Xuan looked down at his sister.
"Sister, what do you think I should do? I don't want my little brother or little sister at all, and my parents don't really want to. If I tell my mother, will my mother think that I want it?" Xuan Lingling was still a child, and she didn't understand what her grandmother meant at all.
"If you want me to say, it's better to wait for the next time the eldest aunt calls back, you can tell the eldest aunt directly. However, don't let others hear it, just take it as your mother and daughter's little secret. Xuan Xuan thought that if he wanted to cut off Xuan Lingling's grandmother from the source, he could only come in person, the daughter of the eldest aunt.
Xuan Lingling shook off the complicated problems of this adult world, and pulled her sister to talk happily about the interesting things she encountered at her grandmother's house during the summer vacation.
When the sisters returned home hand in hand, they smelled the thick smell of rice wafting from the dining room. Xuanxuan saw that there was a meal on the table that his grandfather had already cooked, because the weather was still quite hot, so he didn't have to worry about the food being cold
Because there is a convention in City A, on the first day of school, students must cook a good table of dishes to motivate them. So grandpa bought half a roast duck today, fried a plate of cold shredded potatoes, a plate of fried bacon with garlic, and made a loofah egg soup.
Grandpa's craftsmanship was practiced with his two granddaughters, not very delicious, but it was particularly in line with Xuanxuan's heart.
Xuan Xuan took a bite of fried bacon with garlic moss, chewed the salty and fragrant meat in his mouth, and Xuan Xuan smiled contentedly.
The bacon should be sent from my aunt's house on the outskirts of the city, because the things my aunt makes are very delicious, and the cured goods at home are basically made with my aunt's help, and the two sisters especially like to go to my aunt's house to eat.
Usually, three people are more frugal at home, but grandpa will not make it so rich during the New Year's holiday. "Today's dish is really sumptuous!" Xuan Lingling looked at the table full of food, and also picked up chopsticks and grabbed a chewy bacon to satisfy her hunger.
At this time, Xuanxuan's parents' business was just in its infancy, and the family did not have much money to spare. After all, it's just an ordinary family, and it's rare to cook so many meat dishes.
"Today your aunt came to the house and took me to the hospital for a follow-up. Then I went to the supermarket and bought a few catties of meat for the two of you to change the taste. Xuan Xuan suddenly stopped the chopsticks that were picking up vegetables, she knew that her aunt bought so much pork belly because she wanted to replenish her grandfather's body, but her grandfather fried it all at once for her and her sister.
"What did the doctor say, are you fine?" Xuan Xuan remembered that his grandfather was not in any major condition, but he still asked uneasily.
"What's the problem? Grandpa, old man. Grandpa sighed. said that he patted his legs, "It's just that I'm old and have osteoporosis." ”
"Grandpa, eat more. Xuanxuan hurriedly picked up a large piece of pork belly and put it in his grandfather's bowl, and grandpa smiled kindly: "Xiaoxuan, Lingling, you eat, grandpa doesn't like meat." Hearing Grandpa Dao say this, Xuan Xuan couldn't hold back the tears in his eyes anymore.
Grandpa obviously likes to eat meat, especially pork belly, but she and Xuan Lingling often complain that grandpa always stir-fried vegetables. But the living expenses are only so much, and the grandfather is also a clever woman who has no rice to cook.
When his aunt came to see him, he kept all the ribs and meat that he bought for him to replenish his body, but he left them for her and his sister. He also lied that he didn't like meat. After he and his sister ate the leftovers, they swept away the meat from the plate.
Xuan Xuan lowered his head and slowly picked up the rice in the bowl, he must be filial to his grandfather in the future, and he must not break his grandfather's heart like in his previous life.
Xuan Lingling, who was on the side, noticed Xuan Xuan's depressed mood, and asked with concern: "Sister, what's wrong with you? Are you uncomfortable?" Xuan Xuan hurriedly shook her head, secretly wiped away her tears, and sandwiched a piece of meat for her. "Sister, you like to eat lean meat" said and took out the lean meat and put it in Xuanxuan's bowl.
Xuan Xuan's eyes were hot again, and her tears were almost bursting out, she hurriedly pinched herself and forced her tears back. How lucky I am to be able to return to such a happy home, and to see my family who cares and loves me again.
After eating, Xuan Xuan helped his grandfather put the bowl into the sink, skillfully put the water and squeezed the dish soap, and carefully washed the bowl in his hand. The grandfather on the side looked strange and said, "You girl, you usually help your grandfather wash the dishes when you give you pocket money, why do you take the initiative to help your grandfather do housework today." ”
Xuan Xuan praised himself without blushing and without a heartbeat: "I am a junior high school student, and I am not like Lingling, a little girl, from now on I want to be self-reliant and self-reliant, and become a good child who is filial to my grandfather." ”
A rainbow fart made the grandfather and Xuan Lingling on the side laugh, and Xuan Lingling also rolled up her sleeves, took a rag and began to clean up the table.
