45. Difficult to raise
The arrival of Lin Zhi's mother and daughter finally brought a different atmosphere to Xu Da's family, even Xu Mao, everyone can clearly feel that this person is confident when he speaks, and it seems that because of the arrival of his mother and sister, he has also been emboldened.
When Xu Da and Lin Xiangyi came out, Xu Mao was a little anti-guest, and opened his mouth and said: "Brother Xu Da, my mother and sister just came here today, let's go out and invite them to eat something good, this is the first time they have left the village." ”
Xu Da subconsciously looked at Xu Mao's unpleasant attitude, but he also knew that he didn't have any bad intentions, so he covered up the little dissatisfaction in his heart and said: "You ask your mother and sister what they want to eat, you take them out, I still have something to do at night, and I will report it to you when I come back." ”
Xu Da will not fuel Xu Mao's arrogance, and some faces will be given to the brothers, but Xu Da's principles are not to take them out to coax them to play, so this time Xu Da did not fulfill Xu Mao's wishes.
Lin Xiangyi didn't say anything when she saw this, she was not from Xujia Village, and there were things that she couldn't interfere in. Xu Da's approach today, smart people know what it means, but Lin Xiangyi can see Xu Mao's elated appearance and not understand Xu Da's meaning, so he can only sigh secretly, this Xu Mao is a little lacking in heart.
"Xu Ying, wait a minute." Thinking of the two children in the house, Lin Xiangyi is one head and two big, she has no experience in raising children, and now she can't push the responsibility she has taken on to others, so all she can think of is to find a helper for herself, "You see Zhang Duan, tell him, I have time to come to the shop to find me, I still have some things to ask him." ”
"Done." Xu Ying is now where Xu Da goes, so while responding to Lin Xiangyi in a hurry, he followed closely and went out, leaving others to stare at home.
Xu Maoniang saw that there was no owner in the house, and she also regarded Xu Da's home as her own, and actually began to greet Lin Xiangyi.
"Miss Lin, you won't take a child at first sight, but don't worry, when I came out, the patriarch explained, let me follow you in Shanghai to raise the child, don't worry, my words count, since I promised the patriarch, I won't disagree." Xu Maoniang smiled and took a glass of water from the top of the pack and handed it to Lin Xiangyi, "I heard from them that you have been busy for a day, come, hurry up and drink water." ”
"No need." Lin Xiangyi was a little inexplicable, watching Xu Zhi automatically go to the house to see the child, she was busy and said, "Sister Xu, you and Xu Mao and your aunt go out for a walk, buy two clothes, there are a lot of new things here in Shanghai, I will bring this child myself." ”
"Mother?" Xu Zhi had already heard a lot of things about Shanghai on the train, and his heart had already flown away, and when he heard Lin Xiangyi's words, he hurriedly cast his expectant eyes on his mother.
Xu Maoniang is also curious about the outside world, and now that she has come out, she feels that her eyes are not enough to see, so her mood is similar to Xu Zhi. Xu Mao knew his mother, so he persuaded two sentences, and asked others, and when he saw that no one was willing to go out, he happily led his mother and sister out.
"Mother, did you come out to bring gold?" Xu Mao asked with a smile.
"I brought it, and when we came out, their chief said that it costs money to buy things outside, and in order not to be eye-catching, we also changed the ocean and fiat currency." Xu Maoniang whispered, "The patriarch said that let's live here with peace of mind, the family's crops will be watched by Zhang Luo in the village, I think it's not bad, your father is not here early, you are not by your mother's side, your mother is not practical." ”
"But there is chaos outside, I think you and your sister will play here for a while, it is better to go back." Xu Mao persuaded, "The Japanese are very hateful, they don't treat us Chinese as people at all, and I'm worried that you and your sister will be in danger." ”
"That's right." It's really thrilling along the way, but fortunately, Master Liu arranged for the organization to take care of them along the way, so Xu Maoniang and Xu Zhi really didn't suffer any big grievances, but the experience of strangers around her was enough to make her realize the hardships of the world, "But your sister's matter, I just don't worry, she is a dead eye, and she only has Xu Da in her heart, but you look at the talented and beautiful people, what is the matter with your sister." ”
Although Xu Maoniang hopes that Xu Zhi can have a good mother-in-law, she also knows that emotional matters cannot be forced, and she also has a little selfishness when she comes this time, thinking that even if Xu Da can't climb, she can at least make Xu Zhi sober.
"Mother, why can't I see where Lin Xiangyi is good." Xu Mao muttered, "It's really strange that everyone is fascinated by her." ”
"Why do you say that, Doctor Lin, she is the lifesaver of our patriarch." Xu Maoniang has clear grievances, Grandpa Xu Da's prestige in the village is very high, and in Xu Maoniang's heart, Lin Xiangyi is a life-saving benefactor. Sometimes she can't figure out the small things, but in terms of right and wrong, she sees farther than the younger juniors.
"Xu Mao, it's not that my mother said you, you can't be disrespectful to Dr. Lin." Xu Maoniang said, "Your sister is wishful thinking, although my mother also thinks that Xu Da is a good young man, but the patriarch has said that the marriage depends on Xu Da's own will, so I hope that your sister and brother will not be hostile to Dr. Lin because of this matter, we people in Xujia Village are all people with a conscience." ”
"Mother, I know." Xu Mao was a little embarrassed, "I just sometimes don't deserve it for my sister, my sister has been bitter all these years, and now that Sister Xiangyi occupies this sister's position, it is inevitable that she is a little uncomfortable." ”
Fortunately, Xu Mao is not completely unable to listen to the reason, this will have begun to stop her and her name Lin Xiangyi, Xu Maoniang sighed when she saw this and said: "You kid doesn't know who you look like, how many times have I told you at home, hey, your sister is the same, she is dead-eyed." ”
"Mother, don't talk about it." Xu Zhi's face was a little unhappy, "I just like Brother Xu Da, it's not something I can control, why do you keep pouring cold water on me." In the past, I didn't have the opportunity to get along day and night, but now that I have come to Shanghai and get along day and night, I believe that Xu Dage will definitely like me. "In terms of appearance, not to mention, Xu Zhi can really throw Lin Xiangyi off the street, with fair and clear skin, his eyes are very bright and bright, and the slightly upturned eyetails also look unique.
The mother, son, mother and daughter fought all the way, but after eating and entering the mall, none of the three of them were worried about the unpleasant idea just now, and their eyes were as if they were not enough, looking east and west, especially the two women who were in the mall for the first time, seeing the clothes and smelling the perfume, they were all curious and couldn't walk. And the atmosphere of the Xu family at the moment is really not good.
"Sister Xiangyi, when are the two of them going to cry, they have eaten and urinated, why do they keep crying." Xu Lian looked at the two little people lying side by side on the bed with a sad face, "This kid is really not fun at all, after waiting for them all afternoon, my whole person is going to fall apart." ”
Xu Ming and Xu Bang on the side also nodded in unison and said, "Will this be something wrong with crying?" ”
"I've checked it and I'm fine." Lin Xiangyi felt that she was at a loss, these two children had been arguing for a long time, at first they were hungry, and then they urinated, but what was going on now, she was really powerless.
"What should I do?" Xu Lian rubbed his head and said, "If I keep crying, I'm going to be crazy by the two of them." ”
"You wait at home, I'll find someone." Lin Xiangyi suddenly remembered that his godmother was coming, and said busily, "This Xu Maoniang doesn't know when she will come back, I'll find someone to deal with it first." ”
"Okay, then Sister Xiangyi, come back quickly." The three of them stood aside with big eyes and watched the two babies cry at the top of their throats, and Lin Xiangyi's movements were not slow, they were in a hurry all the way, and finally invited their godmother Chen Yue over.
Chen Yue personally coaxed her son to raise her, so she was far more experienced in children than Lin Xiangyi, no, after she came, she made some milk powder for the two children, hugged and coaxed them, and it didn't take long to put the two children to sleep.
"Are they hungry?" Lin Xiangyi looked incredulous, "I feel like they haven't eaten for long, why are they hungry again?" ”
"It's normal to be hungry, just look at it." Chen Yue smiled, "Who is this kid?" ”
"Godmother, don't mention it, I picked up these two children." I didn't say the specific reason, but this person's brain supplement is really powerful, Chen Yue didn't know what he thought of, the love on his face, "You yourself are still a yellow flower girl, where will you take the child, I think you have to invite someone to watch the child." ”
"Say, godmother, I'm just worried about this." Lin Xiangyi is embarrassed to command Xu Maoniang, in Lin Xiangyi's opinion, hire a person, give people the corresponding remuneration, and take what they need, so that they will not be embarrassed, "I just came to Shanghai, I am not familiar with the place, and I am planning to ask someone to help me find someone to take care of the child, and I can't leave the store, this person must be reliable, it is really a little difficult for me." ”
"It's really not a trivial matter, I'll keep an eye on it for you." Chen Yue said with a smile, "It's hard to find a job now, and I think there should still be a lot of people who are willing to do it." ”
"Well, then it's bothering my godmother, I really can't help it, and the pay is easy to say." Lin Xiangyi is really worried, this child can't take care of himself, let alone a few big boys, besides, these people have been following Zhang Duanxue recently, although the time is not tight, but they don't have the spirit to take care of the child.
"Don't worry, I'll help you take care of it these days, but my family needs someone to pick you up and drop me off from school, and I may not be able to take care of you all the time." Chen Yue herself was a little embarrassed, she thought that those oceans were given by Lin Xiangyi in the name of her husband, so whenever Lin Xiangyi had something to do here, she wanted to try her best to help.
"It's really not bothering my godmother, we still have a big lady at home." Lin Xiangyi said embarrassedly, "It's not that she's going out, the child is making trouble again, I can't help it today, so I pulled my godmother over from home." ”
"Can you see it?" Chen Yue said with concern.
"It should be about the same." Lin Xiangyi was also a little uncertain and said, "I hope Aunt Xu Mao can handle these two little ones, I really never knew that raising a child was so difficult, and my head was made big." ”
