Chapter III: Resolving Remaining Problems

In summer, you open the courtyard gate and look out at the snow-capped village.

There are many rooftop chimneys that are smoking, and it is estimated that every family starts cooking at this point.

Take a deep breath of the cold air in your lungs and remind yourself that you're in the Tohoku region, a place called Pear Tree Village. The current scene is the most accustomed morning in every farmhouse in the village. Look at the fenced yards of every house, the poplar stumps on the roadside, and the snowdrifts that are thick with white flowers as far as the eye can see......

Summer smiled, aunt and grandma, I finally have a home! It's not a dream, it's a real drop. grinning and revealing small white teeth with a brush. Since then, this is my summer hometown, and there is the Songhua River.

"Girl, what are you doing standing here?"

At the intersection of Fangtou Road in the distance, an old man wearing a dogskin hat and a green military cotton jacket walked over, and the old man's military cotton jacket was patched with several large patches.

Old man Xia looked to be in his sixties. The voice is loud, the gait is steady, and it is running fast to summer, and you can know that the body is tough when you look at this speed.

Summer rippled her standard eight-toothed smile: "Grandpa, grandpa, I guessed that you came to see me soon, and waited for you to come to the house for dinner early!" ”

Hehehe, "Give me a confused soup early in the morning, and I'll pass by to see if your squeamish thing is so good." ”

Xia Mutou Xia Old Man walked to Xia's side as he spoke. Summer affectionately tugged at the corner of the old man's shabby big green army jacket.

Grandpa Xia took out four raw eggs from his warm sleeves and handed them to Summer.

"Grandpa, your skills in hiding things are getting better and better, and you can release raw eggs on the sleeves of your padded jacket, why don't you hide the kang head? Maybe you can hatch chicks, hahaha. ”

"You damn girl, you've choreographed your grandfather. You make a small noise, hehe, don't let people hear it, then your aunt should beat your grandparents again. ”

"Did you know? Grandpa, Tiantian has grown up, she is sixteen years old, and she doesn't even steal food from Dongzi, so don't sneak things for me with the unhappy eyes of your aunt. In the future, I will work hard, earn my own money, and I will buy food and drink for you and grandma. ”

"Hey, hey, hey" The old man just finished saying let Summer make a little quieter, but he was coaxed by Summer, and his own hey was louder than anyone else.

Lifting the cotton door curtain and entering the house, Su Meili turned around and took advantage of the heat of cooking in the kitchen and the haze outside, just in time to see the grandfather and grandson coming in with their arms hanged.

"Dad is here, you stay on the kang, Aiguo and Qiu'er go to make a table for the old Li lame man in the village, and come back in a while, let's wait two minutes and start the meal."

"Don't worry, I'll go back and eat later. There are delicious foods to eat seriously with our sweet eggs, I think this child is the hospital where the two of you eat harshly to make your body bad. Old man Xia said as he entered the house.

Su Meili pursed her lips and said in her heart: The old man has reached a certain level of eccentricity, and Xia Aiguo's eccentric eye has reached a certain height. It is said that she is really a sweet mother, she should love her more than anyone else, you can use the old man's name, this dead girl is really spoiled, but she can't be used to it without principles. Don't look at her illness and treat it as if she's fine, that's my mother, I'll give her two more days off, I have to teach her, I can't be corrupted by capitalism, I can't work hard......

The happy old man Xia and the summer children's shoes in the house didn't know that Su Meimei was complaining outside. The grandparents and grandchildren are asking and answering questions in a very harmonious manner, a dry topic, but it also sounds interesting.

"Why are you tidying up the ground, why do you still have a cold? In the future, you can wear more clothes when you go out, and then you will be hospitalized for a few colds, and your father and mother will be dedicated to the hospital after a year of work. ”

is similar to these and other unnutritious topics, which makes the atmosphere of the grandfather and grandson both warm and harmonious.

Morning meal Grandpa Xia ate at Summer's house. In the summer, he contributed four eggs from his grandfather and fried them with green onions, and his father and grandfather drank two cups of pickles, corn tortillas, and stewed sauerkraut in the morning.

After the meal, the old man told him a meal in the summer with the strength of the wine and chattering, it is nothing more than going out less to let the wind out, you are not as good as Qiu'er and Dongzi, you are a girl, you have to be at home in the winter, unlike those two silly boys, the firepower is strong, let's ......

Xia nodded his head, affectionately sent Old Man Xia to the door, and promised Grandpa Xia that he would go to see his grandmother in two more days when the snow was trampled.

Because the uncle's family and the summer family are in the east of the village and the west of the village, the road that has snowed is really far and difficult to walk, and I saw Grandpa Xia turn before entering the house.

In the house, the children in summer and winter were holding wooden pistols made by their fathers on the kang, and they were lying down, standing up and crawling forward to entertain themselves.

My father and brother were at the kitchen door of the outhouse, using the light of the window to teach my brother how to make a round table. In the summer, it will be lively, and after a few words with his father and his brother, he went into the house to help her mother sew and wash the bedding.

Su Meili raised her eyes to look at her daughter and smiled with satisfaction. I thought it would be different since I learned to give his brother egg soup yesterday. This is really changing fast, and now that she has a job in her eyes, she won't scold her for having a crush on the educated youth, just tap a few words.

If you want to say how Su Meili knows that her daughter has a crush on someone else, it can only be summed up as that the accommodation environment is too small, and her daughter has nowhere to hide secrets. In the diary written in the original homework book in the summer, Su Meimei, who went into the house to rummage through the boxes and cabinets to find the cloth ticket, accidentally found out, although Su Meili didn't know much, but she couldn't stop the name of the educated youth from being simple! She still recognizes the word "Jiangshan".

Su Meili thought that it was also a place of free love with Comrade Xia Aiguo. Su Meimei's mother's family gave birth to three girls and had no son, so she recruited a son-in-law for her second sister Su Meihua. The Su family is not wealthy, and the old couple is in average health, so they can't work. The three daughters are even more finished, no matter how they do, they can't compare to other people's young guys with strong labor, so they have not been rich.

After greeting a door-to-door son-in-law and second brother-in-law Zhang Qingshan, life can be regarded as topping. Su Meili had some free time and learned to read and write with the teachers in the village.

There are so many people in the family, and she has to make money as a big girl, so she began to learn to cook with her second sister, and after she finished learning, she walked the streets and alleys. Whoever has a happy event, she and her second sister go to make a banquet for others. The one who came and went was also well-known in his mother's golden village. The sisters' work began to develop in other villages, so that they could earn more food.

Once I came to Lishu Village to help others, and I met Xia Aiguo in the house where I helped. Xia Aiguo is tall and strong, but his facial features are not good-looking. Dark skin, small eyes with single eyelids. Even if the external conditions are average, but it can't stop people's homes, the conditions are good, Xia Mutou and Old Man Xia were also the village chief at that time, and Uncle Xia is now a son inheriting his father's business. So because of the conditions of the Xia family, the eldest girl and the little daughter-in-law were also very worried about marrying Xia Aiguo.

The number of girls who want to marry Xia Aiguo is large, but it can't stop Comrade Xia Aiguo from having a heart to pursue beauty. People are always looking for a girl who is pleasing to their eyes, but they don't spit out to look at each other.

Just because of this time I sat down to eat the table noodles and met Su Meili who helped with the dishes. Su Meimei's legend of a flower, it is rumored that Xia Aiguo, who did not hook up, took the initiative to take a look, but this time it is really famous to meet, Xia Aiguo has an awkward and arrogant heart, and he wants to find Xia Aiguo, who has a decent face, a little taller, and a little white skin, has fallen deeply.

Since then, Su Meili has started the Cinderella mode among the rural girls in Jianguo Township.

The Su family has nothing, they are relatively poor, but she, Su Meimei, is married to Xia Aiguo, who belongs to the children of village cadres in Jianguo Township.

Summer shook her hand: "Mother, are you looking directly at me looking for the shadow of your youth?" After speaking, she blinked her watery eyes and naughtily threw a wink at her mother that did not fit her age.

Su Meili came back to her senses, slapped Xia Xia on the back, and whispered: "It's rude to roll your eyes and learn from anyone." ”

Huh? The wink turns into a roll of the eye......

Su Meili preached: "Girl, my mother also came from a young age. My mother always thought you weren't big. Think about it, although you are 16 years old, but you still grab Dongzi's food and drink, and cry when you are unhappy, where did your mother think that you will know that you have a girl's mind when you grow up?

Although we live roughly with our faces facing the land and our backs to the sky, but my mother should also pay attention to these, my mother didn't expect you to be a 16-year-old girl, you should have a mind, hey!

Since my mother found out that you were careful, my mother had to pinch it off for you. That Jiangshan family is in the city, and it is not a good match for us. It's not that anyone is not worthy of whom, it's that people have too many eyes and are not suitable for us. You just see that he is well dressed and cleanly dressed, you don't know him as a person, he has a lot of eyebrows with the big girls and little daughters-in-law in the village.

My mother has heard it several times, and some people behind her back have said about him. You said that people have the ability to do it at home. In these years, it is not obvious in our village, but it is chaotic in the city. People are stunned to say that they can get a recruitment index, so can it be an ordinary family?

Jiang Shanna patted his ass and said he would go. I see, there may be many girls behind the scenes, wiping their tears. This kind of person has no sense of responsibility, you talk about looking at your daughter, you read so many books more than your mother, do you say this is the behavior of a good man? ”

Summer looked up and really rolled her eyes at the roof of the shed. You say that this original owner is not reliable enough. At such a young age, the girl's feelings are all poems, if you really have poetry, you can boldly take the initiative to express it, and if you can't do it, you can do your best to obey the destiny of heaven.

As a result, I was stunned to have a crush on someone first, and then I heard that someone was sad and held my breath and tossed myself, and finally burned myself with a high fever of 39 degrees. It's really ...... to wear the dark summer that made the 21st century sweat and sleep

In the end, the girl's feelings are always......

"Mother, I will work hard in the future and find someone who is practical and capable. Besides, I'm really young, and someone will let you and my dad check for me in the future. And I don't like him anymore, you can stop mentioning him later. Isn't your mention of him tantamount to reminding me in disguise? You keep mentioning that, can I forget him? ”

Su Meili heard Xia say this, this time it was really comfortable. Even if you are lazy and greedy in summer, you never lie. She's either silent, or she's just doing what she says.

"Well, my mother promises not to mention it in the future. Good girl, it seems that you are really sensible when you have a fever, and my mother will fry shredded potatoes for you at night. ”

Summer rolled her eyes again, just said that her daughter is older, and now her tone is still coaxing children, and Summer's squeamish character seems to have been cultivated by this family......
