Chapter 34 On Remarriage II

Xu Heran went to the second floor to chat with his brother at night, because their brother and sister are only one year apart, so some things are discussed by their brother and sister, and Xu Herer will not be involved. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info Xu Hel also knows this, so she is a little awkward, her mother treats her as a child, and her brothers and sisters also think that she has not grown up, and only tells her to study hard, and rarely discusses family matters with her.

Xu Heqi looked at the eldest sister, he actually felt a little guilty about her in his heart, his father was gone, the eldest brother was like a father, he should have worked harder, let the eldest sister finish vocational high school, and have a skill, it is better than just getting a junior high school diploma, and now he can only work everywhere, there is no guarantee.

Although Xu Heran regretted that she couldn't finish her studies back then, she didn't regret it, her intelligence was mediocre, instead of wasting money on herself, it was better to concentrate on cultivating her little sister, after all, being able to be admitted to college was also an honor for their family.

The two brothers and sisters sat with their own thoughts for a while, and Xu Heran took the initiative to explain what he meant, as expected, Xu Heqi twisted his eyebrows and looked displeased. Wu Hongmei was also a little surprised when she sat on the side, she had never heard of children helping their mother find her mother-in-law's family, but seeing the eldest sister's calm and serious look, I am afraid that this idea has been around for a long time!

Xu Heqi naturally didn't agree, he didn't mean he couldn't support his mother, his wife was also very filial, and it would not be a problem for his mother to support his mother in the future, and he didn't need his mother to marry another person at all, which was like telling others that he Xu Heqi was not filial!

Xu Heran sighed, she knew that this was the result. It's not that my brother doesn't love my mother, but the environment around me is like this, most of the widows in the village who remarry are because their children don't want to support themselves, a village is so big, and the good and bad can easily spread. Some people would rather have benefits than fame, and anyway, they are thick-skinned and don't care.

As the eldest son in the family, Xu Heqi is actually under a lot of pressure, especially after the death of his father, all the big and small affairs in the family depend on him, the eldest sister marries, the younger sister studies, the mother supports the elderly, the children will be raised by himself in the future, and the three old people who support their grandparents and so on. In particular, Xu Yuanhao, who passed away, has always had a good reputation in the village, and Xu Heqi can't insult his father's reputation, so he can only do better.

Xu Heran opened his mouth to persuade his brother, don't attach so much importance to false fame, the most important thing is the happiness of his mother! But Xu Heqi blocked her with one sentence - if my mother wants to remarry, she will not recognize me as a son! Xu Heran looked at his brother's back and smiled helplessly, it seems that his mother's marriage is afraid that it will not be possible.

Ma Hongmei saw that the eldest sister looked lost, so she whispered comfort: "I know that the eldest sister is for the good of her mother, wait for this matter, your brother is not an unreasonable person, just wait for him to figure it out!" ”

Xu Heran looked at the docile sister-in-law, her eldest brother was also blessed to marry such an understanding wife. After chatting with her sister-in-law, Xu Heran went downstairs.

Xu Herer didn't sleep, watched TV absentmindedly, heard the footsteps downstairs, immediately came out of the quilt and ran to his mother's room, and sure enough, Xu Heran sat on the chair next to his mother's bed.

When he learned that his son disagreed, Meng Fangtian was not so disappointed, although the eldest son was a little lonely, but she also knew something about raising him so big, Xu Heqi said that if he supported her, he would definitely do it in the future. What's more, she didn't remarry for love, but just to find a wife in her old age, and such a small motivation was not enough to make her unhappy with her son.

But Xu Herer was a little indignant, she may not have noticed what would happen to her mother when she was old, but since her grandmother brought it up, and then referring to her living situation, Xu Herer was very worried, there would be nothing missing materially, but the loneliness in her heart was the most terrible demon. Just like Xu Her's grandfather and grandmother, when they were young, these two people quarreled for three days and even did not hesitate to do it, but when they get old, the relationship between husband and wife has improved.

Xu Heran pinched his sister's drooping little face, and advised: "This matter is like this for the time being, don't be stubborn and quarrel with your eldest brother, the family finally got together, don't spoil the atmosphere of the New Year." It's not easy for the eldest brother to work hard for a year, do you know! ”

Meng Fangtian also said: "Your eldest brother is not an unfilial and unreasonable person, and the most important thing now is your sister's marriage." ”

Xu Herr pouted, her thoughts seemed a little out of place in the village because she had more contact with the outside world, but Xu Heqi and Xu Heran estimated that they would spend their lives in the village, so they had to follow the popular trend in the village. They tolerate the different concepts of their sister, but not necessarily the rest of the village can also tolerate it, the countryside is a collective society, closer than the city, full of human touch and also full of absurd and unique rules of doing things.

The next day, everyone tacitly did not mention the matter of mother's remarriage. Xu Heqi had just returned home and had not had time to visit his grandmother, so he went over with his wife to talk to her old man. Meng Fangtian took his two daughters to prepare for the New Year's work, and the Xu family's New Year's habit is that the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner is a big reunion, and grandparents and grandmothers will gather at the Xu family, so the preparations every year are very numerous.

On the twenty-eighth day of the lunar month, it suddenly snowed heavily, and I had planned to go to my father's grave to pay respects, but this time I had to postpone it. Xu Hel remembers that when he was in high school, it snowed heavily in his hometown, and later he watched the news to learn that there was a snow disaster all over the country. But since that year, there has been only a symbolic snowflake every year, and the next day it is gone, and it cannot be saved at all. The old people in the village said that the weather is bad, and it is not cold in winter!

So this time the heavy snow, but everyone is very happy, when they were young, the three brothers and sisters of the Xu family would shoot the snow outside the house, and then sit on a shovel to slide down, like a slide. Later, when they grew up, after the snow cleared, they each went to the roof with a shovel to remove the snow, at that time it was really like an ink painting, except for the white snow, that is, the dark branches and ridge houses, so quiet that they could hear the occasional pedestrians on the road stepping on the snow creaking, at that time their favorite thing to play was to divide a whole piece of snow into square small pieces, saying that it was white and tender tofu.

Later, people were lazy, and when it came to such a snowy day, they didn't want to get up at all, so they lay on the bed and listened to the sound of snow and water on the eaves. Later, the snow was lighter, and everyone was in a hurry and didn't have time to sleep.

Xu Her stood in the courtyard with an umbrella, and the sound of falling snow made her miss it very much. Xu Heran, Wu Hongmei, and Xu Heqi sat in the hall with their mother and used the stove to keep warm. The water was boiling on the stove, and after boiling, Xu Heran brewed three cups of milk tea and shouted Xu Her, which allowed her to return to the hall and drink hot milk tea, and everyone chatted aimlessly.
