Chapter 60: A Reminder

Although it was a little strange that such an adult as Xiaoshan would fall into the river, Xiuniang didn't doubt it for a while, but said a little worried about him, "Why is this happening, come into the house quickly, change into your brother's clothes, don't be cold." ”

It's still early spring, and even though it's noon, the sun is good, but it's still easy to get sick when you're soaked like Koyama.

Xiaoshan answered, and followed her into the house.

Xiuniang quickly found a set of Han Daddy's clothes and handed them to him, then turned around and walked out so that he could change his clothes.

Daddy Han, who was sitting on the bed, looked at him wet and wondered, "Xiaoshan, why did you fall into the river?" ”

Xiaoshan smiled bitterly while changing clothes, "Brother, didn't we see that we were anxious after a long time, so we walked faster, but I didn't expect that the more anxious we were, the more mistakes we made, and we actually fell into the river." ”

Daddy Han shook his head again and again when he heard this, "You have to be careful when you cross the bridge in a hurry, this is why don't you remember when the baby knows that you are such a big person." ”

At this time, Xiuniang estimated that Xiaoshan should have changed her clothes, poured a bowl of hot water and walked in, and Han Chuxue followed her and walked in.

"Okay, the child's father Xiaoshan definitely doesn't want to, don't talk about him, come to Xiaoshan, drink a bowl of hot water to warm up, don't get cold."

"Hey." Xiaoshan took it with a smile, and he was not afraid of scalding and drinking it in a few sips, and said while wiping his mouth, "Thank you, sister-in-law." ”

Xiuniang took back the bowl, shook her head and smiled, "What's so thankful for this, by the way, don't take your wet clothes back first, wait for your sister-in-law to help you wash and mend them, and then you can get them." ”

Xiaoshan shook his head and said, "Why is this so troublesome sister-in-law." ”

Daddy Han pretended to be unhappy and glared at him, "What's the trouble with this, is it possible that you are still afraid that our family will be greedy for your clothes." ”

Xiaoshan was so anxious that he shook his hand, "Brother, we don't mean that, no one wants to give away this ragged clothes, what do we have to worry about, it's just, it's just ......"

As he spoke, he grabbed his head, looking embarrassed and unspeakable, "It's just that this dress is somehow torn in the river, and we can't find the ten cents after we go ashore, we have to take it home to our mother-in-law to see, I don't know if she will believe it, if she doesn't even have clothes, she will definitely not believe us, if it will make trouble, our family will not be at peace." ”

Xiaoshan's family's fierce mother-in-law's temperament, Daddy Han also knows, if he heard him say this in the past, for the peace of his brother's family, he would definitely ask Xiuniang to hurry up and give Xiaoshan ten dollars back to pay errands, but the problem is that he has no money in his hands now.

Facing Daddy Han's inquiring eyes, Xiuniang shook her head helplessly, "The money has just been taken by the Erzhu brothers to return to the villagers, and now we have no money in our hands." ”

Xiaoshan, who was still full of confidence and waiting for Daddy Han's money to give him, heard this, and asked anxiously with some gaffes, "Sister-in-law, all the money just now is gone?" ”

If Xiuniang didn't think much about it in the past, but with the cold and early snow just now, and then look at Xiaoshan's eager appearance now, Xiuniang couldn't help but feel a sudden sudden, could it be true that the little girl was right, Xiaoshan didn't accidentally fall into the river at all, but found an excuse to ask for money from herself?

"Yes, even with your bucket of grain, our family owes the villagers a total of eight buckets of grain, ten cents per bucket, and that string of money may not be enough."

"But my sister-in-law's fellow villagers can use ten cents for a bucket of grain."

Xiuniang looked at him a little strangely, "Didn't we just return your bucket of grain for ten cents, why don't others use it?" ”

In fact, Xiaoshan was thinking that he would be able to have some money left, so that he could get a few more money before he was anxious for a while, and now he was asked by Xiuniang and suddenly didn't know how to answer, and he said for a long time, "Then, we don't have to see a doctor for a small stone, so we will be cheeky and accept it." ”

Xiuniang looked at him, and finally shook her head and said, "Our family borrowed the same grain, and when we can't pay it back, some people have more and some people have less, if you don't say it, people will miss us in their hearts." ”

Xiaoshan touched his head and smiled, "Yes, my sister-in-law is right, the villagers, if this is the case, it will not be easy to see each other in the future." ”

Daddy Han nodded, "That's not it." Xiaoshan, you go home and talk to your brother and sister, if she doesn't believe it, you ask her to ask us. ”

Xiaoshan shook his head again and again, "Then how can you let her come to my brother to make trouble, that brother, why don't you give us some more white rice first, so that we can go back and plug that mother-in-law's mouth." ”

It's good to take some rice back when the money is gone, I thought it was a very smooth thing, but I didn't want my father to be embarrassed after hearing it.

"Xiuniang, is there any white rice left in our house?"

Xiuniang shook her head, "No, the big girl has just been cooked, and it's not cooked yet, or Xiaoshan, you wait, when it's cooked, you can put a bowl back?" ”

I didn't expect that Xiaoshan, who couldn't even meet such a little request, was a little difficult to accept.

"Sister-in-law, just that little rice is all cooked?"

Xiuniang snorted, "Yes, originally Dazhu wanted to give it to Erya to eat, but this kid is heartbroken, we have to eat it with the whole family, or she won't eat it, and in the end she can only cook it all." ”

Just by the amount of food eaten by these big and small men, so some rice may not be enough to eat, Xiuniang explained, Xiaoshan knew that the rice was really gone, and suddenly his face was not very good, after all, there is a big difference between a bowl of rice and a bowl of rice.

After enduring a few endurances, he swallowed the accusation that was about to burst out of his stomach, lowered his head and rolled his eyes, Xiaoshan was still thinking in his heart that there were still more than a dozen liters of brown rice in this house, and if there was no white rice, it would not be soaked in water if there was no brown rice.

As soon as he made up his mind, he looked up and met a pair of sparkling eyes.

Han Chuxue, who had been observing him carefully, smiled politely at him, "Uncle Xiaoshan, did you fall down from the bridge above the Guangyuan River?" ”

I didn't understand why she asked, and thought that she didn't know the situation in the village and thought that there were several bridges in the village, so Xiaoshan nodded and replied, "Yes." ”

But seeing that the baby immediately looked worried, "Oh my God, the bridge is so dangerous, Uncle Xiaoshan, have you seen my eldest brother and third brother, they came out soon after you, won't they also fall from the bridge into the river?" ”

Belch...... Xiaoshan was speechless for an instant, he never thought that this baby, who had always been quiet, would suddenly ask such a question.

And Daddy Han and Xiuniang were reminded by Han Chuxue's words, yes, the Dazhu brothers went out soon after Xiaoshan left, and the three of them walked the same road, if Xiaoshan really fell into the river, how could the two brothers not help, even if Xiaoshan is an adult, but he fell back, how could they not meet their brothers on the same road?

"Xiaoshan, you didn't see their brother?"

Asked by Daddy Han, a trace of panic flashed on Xiaoshan's face, and he smiled forcibly, "No, it may be that we rushed away, brother is not early at this time, let's go back first, lest the mother-in-law find my brother to make trouble." ”

With a sentence and the wet clothes in his arms, Xiaoshan hurried away, as if there was something chasing him behind him.
