Chapter 24: Summer and Xia Ling's Future (2)

Xia Aiguo and Xia Aiqin both looked at the eldest brother and sister-in-law coldly. Xia Aiguo didn't believe that his eldest brother couldn't hear what his sister-in-law meant, no matter how bad his eldest brother was, he was also a cadre.

Sister-in-law is different from the past today, it seems that she was indeed stunned by surprise, too much to lose her usual silent but calculating level.

Xia Aiqin also felt that today was really an eye-opener. The person who grew up with her and treated her well in her memory, it seems that she has never seen it clearly. Although when she was a child, she remembered that her sister-in-law secretly ate trough cakes for Xia Wen, and said to herself that she was dazzled, she went back to tell SΓΉ Niang, and her mother also said that she saw the flowers, and also told SΓΉ herself, although she was not much older than Xia Wen, but she was an aunt, even if there was really something delicious, she should let Xia Wen go.

That incident was too impressive, she felt that she had a pimple in her heart when she was a child, so she was grateful to her sister-in-law over the years, but she was not close. But she never felt that her sister-in-law was hypocritical. Today, I really feel that my sister-in-law usually pretends to be stupid, and she pretends to be too similar.

The eldest brother didn't react at all. Xia Aiqin hadn't thought through her inner thoughts, so she saw her second sister-in-law Su Meili take her hand and pat, and whispered: "Qinzi, second sister-in-law, thank you for helping our family all these years." Time and time again, whenever there is a problem in the mother's family, no matter how big or small. Since you got married, your mother's family has something to do. After this incident, don't worry about your mother's family like this, after a long time, no matter how honest your mother-in-law and father-in-law and iron pillar are, it will have a bad impact on you. Don't be too yourself. ”

Xia Aiqin has always felt that she is not a person with shallow eye sockets, but how can her eyes be hot? The people in the village only saw that she was married well and beautifully, and her mother's family borrowed her strength, but how could they know that she also had difficulties? Fortunately, her husband was considerate and obedient to her. This time, you can tell me which of her things she can't take favors from, and things to take during the New Year's holidays. Don't say anything, ask others now, and when others ask for her Zhao Tiezhu in the future, Zhao Tiezhu will have to agree, this person has to pay them back. Fortunately, she always knew that the second brother and sister-in-law were good, even the eldest brother......

Xia Aiqin's eyes were staring at Xia Ling as if she was reciting a guarantee, and began to promise her grandparents how to do a good job as a worker, when she heard a woman shouting loudly in the yard.

The old lady took the lead and went out first, thinking that it was a neighbor who had come to hang out for the New Year. Then everyone else also came out to take a look, just Xia Aiqin and Xia Aiguo's family sat and stared at Old Man Xia without moving, and even Zhang Qiao took the child and went out to see what was going on. In the blink of an eye, I saw two mud children running back. One has tears in his eyes, and the other doesn't have much expression.

"Ahhh Mother, that old lady beat me and my brother with a stick, and my father apologized to others, you go out to avenge me! ”

Xia Aiqin took a closer look at Zhao An. I don't know if I was crying angrily or scared, my eyes were swollen from crying, so I quickly smoothed my clothes and got up and walked out.

Over there, Su Meili was about to torture to extract a confession, twisted Xia Dong's little ears, and asked repeatedly: "Where did you take your brother to the wild?" Look at the one who scared him. If I don't beat you for three days, you will go to the house to expose the tiles, and let your father kick you to death in a while. ”

Xiaqiu and Summer hurried to rescue Xia Dong. Xia Dong happily thanked his brother and sister. Su Meili almost ran out of breath. I can't take care of these anymore, so I quickly went out with the old man and his own old man to see what was going on.

"Oops! Your two grandchildren are gone. He took a small cannon and lit it and threw it at my kennel. My dog is usually not leashed in the yard, which is good, and it was frightened to jump out of the fence and run around the village. Your eldest brother is afraid that the dog will be frightened and bite the person again, so he runs after the dog. You said that he is a few years older than your eldest brother, and he usually struggles to walk the aisle, can he outrun the dog? Confused, no!

I was still anxious and afraid of biting people, so I fell into the snowdrift without paying attention, and I was sent back by people passing by in the village. I didn't chase the dog, I chased him. I was afraid that he would fall and go to see it, but he really fell. Big sister, I didn't mean anything else, don't think about it, I'm here to tell you to check on the two children. More than ten years ago, didn't my family have a warehouse more than one meter high? If it's shabby and decent, use it as a kennel. We both ran out of the straw hut built on it, and we didn't pay attention to the two children who threw firecrackers, and these two children didn't know when they climbed up, and there was a piece of grass shed that was not set up, and the two children fell into the kennel from above. That's more than a meter tall, so let's go to the hospital and have a look. ”

An old man about the same age as the old lady turned around and was about to leave. The old man and the old lady were going to follow to see another old man. It's been an old relationship for many years, and the younger generation got along with each other when they were children, and they didn't want to go if they didn't look at it. The Xia family also kept sending a few old people to walk far before entering the house.

When Xia entered the house, he heard the two children crying wolf, and Xia Aiguo and Zhao Tiezhu beat them. I guess I'm about to be angry. This is really like what people say, it's almost endless.

In the summer, her brother-in-law was even more talented, and scolded Zhao An while beating him: "You have found a certain share, but I have never seen you so naughty." Why don't you throw firecrackers into your father's bed? up and your mother. ”

In the summer, I feel that the picture is a little joyful. These two people looked scary when they beat the children, but they stood on the ground, not climbing on the kang, and the two children stood in the kang with their shoes on, screaming that they were going to be beaten to death, that they were going to die, that they were not good for me.

Xia Aiqin really couldn't see it, and handed the broom used to sweep the floor to Zhao Tiezhu: "Take this to fight, this designation can hit him." ”

Zhao Tiezhu waved the broom into the kang, and just as he was about to speak, he heard the second uncle next to him say: "The two little rabbit cubs are coming down for me quickly, let your mother see if it is injured?" I'll beat you up when you're healed. ”

Xia Dong was a person who had many practical experiences, and he immediately yelled and fell and his whole body hurt.

After Su Meili knew the reason, she couldn't wait to beat Xia Dong even more. This time it's a dog kennel, what if you blow it up next time? But I also know that my sister-in-law has not eaten since she returned to the door today, and if the child is beaten and screams, she will not have to eat this meal. Forcibly press the fire to pick up the clothes in summer and winter to check.

"Sister, you go to another room. You are a woman, I am a man. ”

"Stinky boy, when you were beaten and I stopped you just now, why didn't you say that there is a difference between men and women?" In the summer, she didn't fight with him, so she went to the outhouse to help her aunt wash vegetables. Half of the dishes were packed up and I went into the house for a meeting, so I had to hurry up and help with the cooking, otherwise the meal would not be able to be eaten in the dark.

Old man Xia and the old lady came back after a while, saying that there was nothing going on over there. all know that on the day when the girl of the old Xia family returns to her parents' house today, no one can talk more, so they don't leave the old man and the old lady Xia more. The two of them entered the house for a while, and then called for dinner.

Old man Xia picked up the wine glass and drank with everyone first, and then asked: "Xia Ling sees that she wants to go to the city to be a worker, so let's talk about it, what do you want to do?" ”

"Grandparents, I want to be a soldier, although I like that uniform, but I admire soldiers more. They are the loveliest people who defend their families and country, and I want to be one of them. It's hard, but it's better than farming in my hometown. The sister-in-law said that the spring can only release the news that female soldiers are recruited, and during this time, I can work and practice running and so on. There is no problem with the cultural class, I am also healthy, but the body and body elements need to be strengthened, and this time is the buffer period, and I can still prepare. ”

After Xia finished speaking, she looked at everyone, and found that Su Meili, the old lady, and Xia Qiu all showed disapproving eyes, and understood that they wanted her to choose to be a worker like Sister Lingzi. is so close to home, lest she be reluctant to be a soldier.

Old man Xia looked at Xia Aiguo and wanted to know what this little son thought. Xia Aiguo had been looking at his daughter seriously as early as when Xia was talking.

He thought: he had no reason to object to such a loud and firm answer. What's more, being a soldier is also his dream, what man doesn't look forward to serving the country and the motherland? Everyone has this heroic dream, and now that his daughter has such a good opportunity, he only needs to firmly help his daughter improve her physical quality, and usually run more, so let Xia Qiu take his sister and run well all over the mountains. He believed that his Xia patriotic girl would definitely be selected, the kind of girl who could be a soldier without special care.

"Let's go to the army in the summer. If there were no iron pillars, such a good opportunity would not have fallen on Tiantian. Although our family is not bad in our village, there are capable people outside. The number of places is so small, if nothing else, let's just say how many people are replaced in the army every year. Fortunately, our iron pillar can speak, and our family is not afraid of this kind of thing. That's it, Dad! ”

Xia Aiguo motioned to Old Man Xia to let him make a final decision. The old man stared and pondered, can the small body in the summer withstand the toss when it arrives in the army? He really wanted Reiko to be a soldier, and Summer was guarding his neighborhood. After all, Xia Ling was more capable than summer when she was young, and she could endure hardships. But now that the two of them have chosen the future path, he can't let the two of them fall off one by one, and good things will become bad things.

Then I'm afraid that the two sons' families will have to have a disagreement, and it is estimated that now the younger son is not stubborn and will leave, just because it is for the sake of Xia Aiqin and Zhao Tiezhu's face. As far as his eldest brother has been silent just now, Xia Aiguo may have been a little disappointed in his eldest brother, what he is most afraid of is that the family is not united.

The Xia family has a small population, and if the people are cold, then this family will be almost scattered. And if he really decides to drop a little, for Xia Ling's sake, not only will he not listen to him, but I'm afraid he will have to fight with her sister when the time comes! The old man thought for a while and picked up his wine glass: "The two of them have chosen by themselves, so I won't say anything else." Your sister-in-law and brother-in-law have dragged you both out of the mud, and you will be well in the future, and you must remember their kindness. ”

Both of them said thank you to their sister-in-law and brother-in-law. Summer didn't say much, she always felt that no matter how much she said, it was useless, and if she really did it, she kept her promise.

She suddenly came to this era, and after learning about this era, she felt that she had been dealing with Tu Kela for at least three or two years, and she was really a little worried. She hadn't been in the field, so she couldn't work, and she was preparing to wait for the spring and autumn harvest to earn work, so that she could give her father and mother a long face, and she was hit on her head by such a big pie.

She really wants to go to the army of this era to train herself, and she really wants to be a soldier. Although she didn't know everything in her previous life, she had been in contact with many professions, but she was the only one who was missing. This profession has always been admired and respected by her, and even made her feel mysterious.

Although the training in the army is hard, she is not afraid, and it is really rare to want to be a soldier or a female soldier in this era. Since she chose to go to the army, she can't embarrass her father, let alone discredit this hard-won opportunity, she wants to become excellent and make her father have a bright face.

Xia turned her head sideways to look at Xia Ling who was sitting next to her, and her sister Lingzi spoke excitedly as if she was beating chicken blood. She is a little confused, isn't the little girl supposed to have a dream of a hero complex? How could I jump up and down as soon as I heard that I went to work as a worker in the factory, and I was afraid that she would rob her. In the summer, I was quite worried that her sister Lingzi would rush to become a soldier, which is very good, and the old people don't have to be embarrassed.

The rest of the time is that the eldest aunt frequently raises a glass and drinks with Xia Aiqin and Su Meimei, and talks closely. Most of them ask when they can go to work. What's the treatment? How many people are in the dormitory? And so on very detailed questions.

Su Meili cut off her sister-in-law's nagging question, and said loudly: "It's a favor for the Aegean Iron Pillar to find someone to do things. What are the conditions of my family, everyone knows, there are really nothing good. However, I have always kept the red satin quilt that my mother gave me when I got married. That fabric is so rare, I haven't been willing to use it for so many years, and I have always wanted to wait until tomorrow to get married in the summer and autumn to take out a long face and use it as a bride price for my future daughter-in-law. I know how to embroider is a small craft, and I think it's pretty good. As early as I got this quilt I embroidered a big quilt embroidery work, looking at the meaning is very auspicious, maybe this thing let the Aegean Iron Pillar take it back and take it out, go away or something. ”

Su Meili saw that Xia Aiqin was about to speak, and quickly raised her hand to stop her and continued: "Something is a heart of the two of us. Your second brother and I know how much affection you have to go. Without you, how could such a good opportunity fall on the children in the village, I'm afraid that as soon as you are notified, with just a few places, you can go crazy with capable people in the county. Thank you for not saying much, that's too vain. If you don't take this thing, you will despise me and your second brother's mind. Like Daddy said, you guys really pulled the summer out of the mud. In the future, she will really do it, and she will not forget to dig wells, our children are sensible, reasonable and filial children, and she will be able to replace her mother in the future to send more. Don't talk about things, even if you are filial to you, she can do it. ”

After listening to Su Meimei's crackling speech, Xia Aiguo was also complacent about his good vision back then. Don't search at critical moments, be a good person and do things coolly. He has seen the quilt several times, and Su Meili always took it out and touched the ground with her hand, which shows how much she likes it. Although this thing is not worth mentioning with the help of my sister's family to my own family, it is just like the child's mother, it is the heart.

Zheng Sancai's face was a little red. You said that she herself was happy and confused, why wasn't she as thoughtful as her brother and daughter-in-law. I should have thought about what to send to someone else, this should have been said by her sister-in-law first, seeing the eyes of her grandfather glaring at her, she quickly answered: "I also have the same, my mother-in-law sent a small gold lock plate as long as a small finger from the old generation, the wind has been too tight over the years, I have hidden it, I dare not take it out casually, but it is indeed the best object of the sister-in-law's family now, you take it to send favors, listen to my mother's sister-in-law said, this thing is liked by people in the city." ”

As soon as Zhang Qiao heard that her mother-in-law had this thing, she had to take it out and give it away, doesn't this mean that this valuable thing is going to be put on Xia Ling, this should have been left to her son, but she just heard about it and gave it away, she didn't touch it, what's the matter?

Xia Aihua also heard for the first time that his own mother-in-law still had this thing, but when he saw his son and daughter-in-law, they all had a little bad face.

Also, I heard that this thing is quite valuable, so I gave it away for Xia Ling? Originally, all the qiΔ“ in this family should be given to his son and grandson, and it is normal for his son to have some opinions.

Old man Xia interjected and added a few words: "The things are collected, looking for someone to do something, how can such a big favor not thank and thank others, I don't care what you do with the things given by your sister-in-law and second sister-in-law, just take it when you give it to you, it's just that there are too few things, and there is nothing to make up for it." After speaking, he took a few puffs of cigarette pouches and pots, frowning and thinking about what else was worth at home.

As soon as Xia Aiqin and Zhao Tiezhu heard what Old Man Xia said, they couldn't object and could only accept it. Besides, it is true that the New Year will be celebrated in the future, especially when it will be the fifteenth day of the first lunar month in a blink of an eye, and I have to have a good walk with the people who arranged for Xia Ling to enter the factory. Li was too light to take it out, so he nodded when he thought about it. Zheng Sancai hurriedly went into the house to rummage through the cabinets, and Su Meili also gave Xia Qiu the key to the kang cabinet and asked him to go home to get the quilt.

At the dinner table, Xia Ling and Xia helped the two younger brothers pick fish bones, especially Zhao An's hands and feet were not honest when eating, and he was busy wiping his hands and clothes with a rag during the meal in summer.

At this time, the kung fu big guy drank again, and Xia Aihua also took the opportunity to tell Xia Ling his decision: "Your mother poured out all the things at the bottom of the box for your work, and the things at home should have been given to your brother and your little nephew." In this way, all the money you earned in the first two years of work was taken back and handed over to your mother, and your mother saved it for your brother, do you have no opinion? ”

Xia Ling dared to have an opinion when she heard this, so she quickly shook her head and agreed, as for what she thought in her heart, only she knew.

The front line for this meal did not stretch too long. Speaking of these things, plus the two children's shoes being naughty, it wasted a lot of time. That's it, while it was still early, Xia Aiqin and his family hurried away with Zhao An's troublemaker, so that they could rush back to the county seat before dark.

Zhao An's kid may be the only son, too short of playmates. When he left, he cried and howled, clamoring for his father to take Xia Dong away. After persuading everyone for a long time, they cried like a little cat and reluctantly waved goodbye to everyone.
