Chapter 18: Sister
When I arrived at my uncle's house in the afternoon, my cousin Li Xia had already gone upstairs to rest with a big belly, and my brother-in-law Zhang Zhang was greeting the guests downstairs.
"Uncle, aunt, Xiao Mu is also here. Haha, come in and have a cup of tea first. ”
Zhang Zhang works in Tianmen City, does international trade, and is very cheerful.
"Xiao Zhang is going to be a father, and his spirit looks good." Lao Li said and looked at Li Mu very dissatisfied.
Zhang Zhang's eyebrows rose with joy when he heard this: "People are in good spirits when they are happy." ”
"But raising a child also puts a heavy burden on my shoulders." Lao Li sighed.
"You don't know that, do you? Ha ha. Li Chuansheng didn't know where to get out of it, and said proudly, "Xiao Zhang was promoted at the end of the year, not to mention one child, two can afford to raise it." ”
Zhang Zhang smiled bitterly when he heard this: "The words of the two are still a bit reluctant. ”
Aunt Shi glanced at Li Mu, he could support two children, but no one gave birth to him.
The other neighbors in the living room are also you and I talk vigorously around Zhang Zhang and the child, Zhang Zhang can really speak, no matter who the words can take two sentences, the atmosphere in the living room has always been very lively.
"Komaki, let's go out and talk." Zhang Zhang came over at some point.
Li Mu nodded, grabbed a handful of melon seeds and peanuts on the table, and followed him outside the house.
Zhang Zhang smiled and grabbed some melon seeds from Li Mu's hand, and quipped: "I heard from my uncle a while ago that you contracted that Lin Yushan, how about it, can you support yourself?" ”
Li Mu smiled: "It really didn't work before, but now it's good." ”
Zhang Zhang knew that contracting the mountain was to grow some fruits and raise some fish. It's hard to make a lot of money unless you can scale up.
"Got a regular sales channel?"
Li Mu nodded: "Yes." Brother-in-law, don't worry about me. ”
"Oh, I dare to be affectionate. Ha ha. Zhang Zhang patted Li Mu's shoulder and sighed, "Hey, don't you know how difficult it has been for me in the past few months, a middle-level in the company has left, and I don't know how many people below are staring at that position, each of them has eight immortals across the sea to show their magical powers, the pressure was really great at that time, plus your sister's pregnancy." It also happens to be in the most dangerous period, I am careful in what I do, and I can't bring my emotions to the house when I get home from work, I am afraid that your sister will have fetal gas, and my father will call me at this time, saying that your nephew is not worry-free, not working hard, and going to contract what ecological planting in Lin Yushan is, for fear of losing money. Let me see if the company is still recruiting, alas, there are so many things that I can't take care of the end if I can take care of the head. Brother has finally reached the middle level. If you can't grow any money on that mountain in the future, you will come to my brother. ”
Li Mu was really touched in his heart, only his family would think of himself in his heart like this. It's just that he doesn't know that Li Mushan doesn't look like money. It's a checkbook.
"Brother-in-law, then you have to wait."
Zhang Zhang smiled: "Okay." If you want to have this kind of self-confidence, then I wish you to become a big landlord first. Hahahaha. ”
It wasn't until dinner that Li Xia was full of sleep and walked down. She has a good figure, even if she is seven months pregnant, she does not look bloated, and after greeting the guests in the living room, she walked to Li Mu's side, raised her hand to twist his ears, and looked like Li Mu twisting Mengmeng's ears.
It's almost time to eat at this time, and the guests in the living room are the most, Li Mu is so adult, how embarrassed to let his ears be grabbed, so he ran away from his brother-in-law Zhang Zhang and took refuge.
Li Xia walked over slowly, and Zhang Zhang immediately looked up at the sky when he saw it, and then walked away as if nothing happened.
didn't have time to complain about the unrighteous brother-in-law, Li Mu smiled and said, "Sister, I haven't seen you for a few days, my spirit is much better." ”
"Really?" Li Xia snorted, "What are you doing these days other than going to relatives?" I can't see anyone at the end of the three days, hide from me? ”
Li Mu begged for mercy: "How can there be, don't you have a few dogs on the mountain and make food for them, otherwise you will have to starve to death in winter." ”
"Really?" Li Xia is not easy to fool, "Then why don't you bring it back?" ”
Li Mu glanced at the mother next to him, and he didn't dare to say the sentence 'I'm afraid of being slaughtered and eaten by my mother'.
You must know that whether it is the south or the north, eating dog meat during the New Year is about to become a custom, and my mother loves this bite very much, he is terrified when he brings back the steamed buns, how dare he take them home.
"It's not that I'm afraid of causing chaos at home, the dogs in the mountains are all defecating in the open, and it's too troublesome to sweep up."
"Then you're not too troublesome in the mountains?" Li Xia's hand reached out again.
Li Mu retreated without a trace and thought to himself, on the mountain, the steamed buns are all convenient in the bamboo forest, one is to provide nourishment for the bamboo, and the other is to simply want to smoke to death Meng Meng.
"What are you hiding, I'm afraid I'll eat you." Li Xiafeng's eyes widened angrily.
"Pay attention to the tire gas, tire gas." Zhang Zhang was busy persuading behind, and at the same time kept squeezing his eyes at Li Mu and frowning.
Sure enough, when she heard Zhang Zhang's words, Aunt Shi looked at it for the first time, and she glared: "Li Mu, what are you doing?" Don't be angry with your sister's belly. ”
Li Mu smiled bitterly, now who really has a big belly and who has a high status in the family.
Li Xia took the opportunity to grab Li Mu's ears and tug at them, and said proudly: "Sample, you are still tender when you play with your sister." ”
Li Mulian asked his brother-in-law for help, but who knew that this guy had already gone to the kitchen to help.
"Sister, you said that you are so old, don't be like this, right?"
Li Xia was not happy when she heard this, who is older, who is talking about whom? With a suffocation in his hand, he said angrily: "Who do you say is so old?" ”
Li Mu hurriedly admitted his mistake: "I, I said myself." I'm so old, sister, give me some face. ”
Li Xia's anger was a little lighter, and when she suddenly turned her head, she saw that the guests in the living room were all looking at this side, and even let go of her hands and glared at him.
Here are a few children running to Li Xia's side, looking up at her, and chirping: "Auntie and Auntie, when will the baby come out, I want to play with my younger brother." ”
"I like my sister, is it okay for my aunt to give birth to my sister?" A little girl squeezed away a chubby little boy and smiled at Li Xia with two missing front teeth.
Li Xia may be because she is also pregnant with a child in her belly, and in the face of the overflow of maternal love among children, she gently squatted down and played with them.
Li Mu left this place of right and wrong as soon as possible.
In the kitchen, Aunt Li Mu **** was cutting vegetables, but her eyes looked out of the door from time to time, and her face was full of surprise.
"Mom, what are you looking at?" After Zhang Zhang walked into the kitchen, he found that his mother-in-law had a problem.
His chin was a little outward, and he said strangely: "Look at your aunt's complexion, yesterday she was a little dull yellow like me, but today, the white is red and white, this is at least ten years younger." ”
Zhang Zhang said 'oh', and said unconcernedly: "Maybe people are in good spirits on happy occasions." Mom, it's almost time, let's serve a few cold dishes first. ”
"Yes, it's all done, you go out first, and let the mahjong class stop first."
Zhang Zhang immediately shouted out with a smile: "It's time to eat, mahjong will stop first." ”
The night is completely shrouded, the stars are dimmed, and the atmosphere of the New Year finally dissipates, and everyone gradually returns to a busy state. (To be continued......)
