(Read more)
Although the old man who had raised Li Mengnan for 20 years was a little stricter when teaching tricks, he sincerely raised him as his own grandson, and although he lived a poor life, he did not suffer much.
Only when you get it, you will feel pain when you lose it, Li Mengnan doesn't even remember what his biological parents are like, and it would be too hypocritical to say that he hates each other.
If it were a wealthy family like the Ding family, there would be a possibility of psychological imbalance, but looking at the broken yard in front of him with grass growing on the roof, Li Mengnan felt that he was completely blessed when he was abducted, and if he wanted to say hate, he had to be Minnie Xiao Bao'er.
Li Mengnan took the wine glass and drank it all, which can be regarded as a termination charm for the unbearable past, not only for himself, but also for Xiao Hui to release the knot in his heart that has been guilty for nearly 20 years.
Putting down the teacup, the gloomy color on Xiao Hui's face disappeared, and the whole person seemed to be ten years younger.
Xiao Bao'er also joined in the fun and toasted Li Mengnan with a glass of wine, took his arm and said coquettishly: "Now that you are my brother, what can you do to protect me in the future!" ”
Minnie only ate with her head bored, deliberately wanting to avoid this opening, but she was still named by Xiao Hui, who was in the midst of excitement.
"Nier, it's a happy day for your brother to come back today...... Come, give your brother a drink too! ”
Minnie knew she couldn't dodge, she really wanted to flip the table on the spot - wouldn't it be an outsider? Are you all so happy? He's your son, Bao'er's brother, and he has a half-dime relationship with me! Let me toast him? Say what? Thank you for taking away my **** body?
However, Minnie still took a deep breath and endured the indignant impulse in her heart, her biological mother abandoned her husband and children when she was three years old, and it was Xiao Hui who pulled her into an adult with a handful of and urine, although she was only a stepmother, but in her heart she was a closer person than her biological mother.
Minnie Mouse poured Li Mengnan a glass of beer, raised her glass from afar, and didn't speak, anyway, it was a formal salute.
Li Mengnan knew that Minnie Mouse was still worried about the KTV incident, and he didn't care about her rude perfunctory, and he also drank this cup full.
Whatever the purpose, a good girl is the one who cares about chastity, and if Minnie can call him a brother and sister without any guilt, he will have to look down on Minnie.
"Brother, I heard that the place where you used to live was a very remote rural area, you must have had a hard time all these years, right? I saw it on TV, saying that the children there didn't even have shoes, and they had to walk barefoot for more than ten miles to go to school, and they could only eat wotou and pickle gnocchi for lunch, and when they went home, they had to help their families watch their children farm......"
Unlike Minnie Mouse, Xiao Baoer sat almost next to Li Mengnan, constantly putting vegetables in Li Mengnan's bowl, curiously asking about Li Mengnan's experience over the years, and began to fall into her own subjective conjecture as she spoke, and tears began to roll.
"Don't, don't cry...... You said that it was a poor area in the southwest, but I was in the northeast, and my life was not so miserable. ”
This seems to be the rhythm of Yang Bailao...... Li Mengnan couldn't cry or laugh, and hurriedly wiped the tears of this emotional little girl.
In fact, except for the dark past when he was forced by the old man to learn tricks, Li Mengnan's childhood was quite happy.
The village is next to a vast pasture, cheese and beef jerky or something to eat until vomiting, idle can ride a horse to run around, when playing in the wilderness, he also stole the herdsmen's shotguns to shoot the lone wolf on the grassland, of course, afterwards it is indispensable to be scolded by adults, and the booty is also confiscated.
Now that he thinks about it, although the life there is not as colorful as in the big city, the simple and simple trust between people is also something he misses.
Li Mengnan saw that his mother Xiao Hui seemed to be very curious about his upbringing, so he picked a few impressive childhood anecdotes and brought them to the dinner table to tell, of course, skipping those that were too thrilling and inappropriate for children, which made Xiao Hui and Xiao Baoer laugh again and again, and even Minnie Mouse who tried to make a straight face couldn't help but spray rice a few times, choking and reddening.
Xiao Hui is most afraid of hearing that the child suffers, after listening to Li Mengnan's description of the growth experience, she was relieved, and said with a smile: "Come and see that old man Li is good to you, and when you look back for the New Year, burn more paper for the old man, and our whole family will worship ......"
"Well, I brought all the ashes, and now I will put them under the dormitory." Li Mengnan agreed with Xiao Hui's suggestion.
"You kid! Is the dormitory a place to put ashes? I'm not afraid to scare your roommates. Xiao Hui glared and said angrily, "Go back and bring the old man's ashes over, set up a mourning hall at home, and buy a cemetery for the old man when he has money." ”
Li Mengnan's true feelings have made her completely enter the role of a mother, without any unnaturalness, just like a mother and son who have been together for more than ten years.
Li Mengnan smiled indifferently: "It's okay, the ashes are canned with milk powder, even if they are seen, they can't scare the three animals...... As long as they don't drink the powdered milk. ”
If Wu Ansu was present, it is estimated that he would have to vomit again when he heard this, but fortunately, Xiao Hui and the others did not have such a strange experience as Wu Ansu, and when they heard the words, they took it as a joke and didn't say anything more.
Just when the family was enjoying themselves, a few dog barks suddenly sounded in the alley outside the courtyard.
The faces of the mother and daughter of the Xiao family suddenly changed, Minnie Mouse and Xiao Baoer got up almost at the same time to lock the door, but after all, it was still a step too late, and a German shepherd dog who was almost half a person tall squeezed open the courtyard door and ran in.
The German pastor was almost face to face with Xiao Bao'er, so frightened that Xiao Bao'er was so frightened that she almost sat on the ground with weak legs, or Minnie Mouse quickly protected her behind her, but her pretty face was sometimes green and white, and it was obviously just holding on.
"Big Black, come here!"
With a shrill sound as if someone was scratching grounded glass, a middle-aged woman with a gourd-shaped figure walked into the courtyard from the outside, carrying a dog chain.
It's not that this woman's figure is good, you know, there are actually many kinds of gourd-shaped figures, like Taishang Laojun's gourd with pills is naturally the best, like Minnie's kind of typical gourd body.
And the woman in front of her...... It belongs to the kind of gourd that is used to cut in half to make a scoop.
(Note: The scoop was used in the countryside to scoop water in the water tank in the past, and now it is basically replaced by a plastic spoon, and it is estimated that some people will see it after the 80s, and there should not be many after the 90s.) )
The calm "chassis" with the fat white chiffon skirt and a head of instant noodle rolls is like a chartered woman in the movie "Kung Fu".
Li Mengnan felt very strange, bringing a dog to the door is a situation that can only be seen in rural areas...... But it's mostly at night to boost your guts.
Looking at the unnatural expressions of the three mothers and daughters of the Xiao family, he knew that it was a villain who came to the door, but Li Mengnan didn't know the identity of the person who came and the relationship with the mother and daughter of the Xiao family, so he didn't want to get involved, so he just sat quietly at the table and watched coldly.
