On Sunday, Fang Xinning rushed home from the county seat to see his mother.

Fang's mother finished watering the ground in the vegetable garden, took advantage of the time to pull weeds, and when she saw her son coming back, she stopped what she was doing, picked some vegetables from the field, and went home with her son. Fang Mu was full of mud from her shoes and stomped her feet vigorously on the road. When she got home, she fed the pigs and chickens, and Fang Xinning helped clean the yard. After a busy set, she began to choose vegetables again, while talking to her son.

"Your aunt's second brother has a new kid." Fang's mother said to Fang Xinning. Fang Xinning's second brother is called Fang Xincai, little Fang Xinning is three or four years old, and he is the youngest son of the second uncle's family. The second uncle helps others look at the factory outside all the year round, the eldest son is in the army, and only the second aunt follows the heart of the family. Fang Xinning said: "Then don't make my aunt happy." Fang's mother said: "Happiness is happiness, but I just took a name, called Anning." I went to them and said, doesn't this have the same name as his uncle? Fang Xinning asked, "His uncle?" Which uncle? Fang's mother said, "It's you." "Me?" Fang Xinning couldn't help but have a fever on his face. Before he got married, he became someone's uncle first. This is in the countryside, but it is a shame for men, and only those old bachelors who can't afford to mix with their daughters-in-law have to bear that kind of embarrassment.

"That's nothing." Fang Xinning said. Fang's mother said, "Why is it nothing? Aside from the elders, this is a taboo. Fang Xinning corrected and said, "It's evasive, right?" But now that it's a new society, who still talks about this? Fang's mother said, "That's not going to work either." I talked about them, but the talented family said that I just saw that my brother was educated and capable, so I gave the child this name. Fang Xinning asked, "What happened later?" Fang's mother said: "I went to find your aunt again, but your aunt was reasonable, saying that this was not appropriate." Fang Xinning asked: "Changed now?" Fang's mother said: "It's changed, it's called 'Anting'." Fang Xinning said: "Isn't that the same name as his aunt again?" Fang's mother asked suspiciously: "His aunt?" Fang Xinning hurriedly explained: "I...... I'm talking about it. ”

Carelessly, Fang Xinning almost confessed Ji Meiting. No matter what the matter is, if you can't grasp it 100%, Fang Xinning will not open her mouth to tell her mother. He had developed the habit of keeping many things in his heart rather than saying them unless he had thought them through. He didn't want his mother and sister to worry about himself.

Fang Xinning said: "A name is a symbol, and people can call it whatever they like." Fang's mother said: "You have to pay attention to what you should pay attention to." Let's just say that people are talented, you are a few years younger, and you are a father, you are so ......good" Fang Xinning rushed to say: "Mother, don't worry, my son can't embarrass you." Fang's mother just said: "If it goes on like this, I won't be able to hold my grandson even if I get into the ground." Saying that, Fang's mother's voice was a little astringent: At her age, marrying a daughter-in-law and holding a grandson is the greatest wish.

Fang Xinning thought to herself, Ji Meiting, Ji Meiting, you even torture my mother to death. But he thought about it again, how could Ji Meiting be blamed for this? I still can't mix it up, so I ended up in such a passive situation today.

Fang Xinning took out his mobile phone to send a text message to Ji Meiting. He wanted to pass on the feeling in his heart to her at this time.

Fang's mother was still saying, "Xiao Nizi of the Wang family in our village, I was in the same class as you when I was in elementary school, right?" Seeing that Fang Xinning was silent, Fang's mother raised her voice, almost shouting: "Is Xiao Nizi of the Wang family your elementary school classmate?" ”

Fang Xinning, who was still editing the text message, was taken aback by Fang's mother's shouting, and hurriedly replied: "Yes, yes, you say yes, I'll listen." ”

In Yuanshan Village, this Wang family is a single-family household, so the little girl of the Wang family mentioned by Fang's mother must be Wang Jingzhi. Speaking of Wang Jingzhi, how could Fang Xinning not know? She is not on the same street as their family, and she was in the same class with Fang Xinning when she was in elementary school, and she shared the table for three years.

Wang Jingzhi's father, Wang Baolin, was a well-known capable person in Yuanshan Village, and he often ran around to contact business, and his family was the most prosperous in the village, but he miscalculated when it came to his daughter's schooling. Wang Baolin is often away from home, and his wife is not very strong, so he wants his daughter to stay at home to help with housework and not go to school. At that time, Fang Baoguo, who was the person in charge of the village, tried to persuade Wang Baolin, but Wang Baolin was very stubborn: "What kind of school to go to, 'a woman is virtuous if she is not talented', this is an ancient precept." As long as you have money, what are you afraid of? In the end, he didn't stand Fang Baoguo's soft grinding and hard bubbles, Wang Baolin sent his daughter to school. Later, Fang Baoguo was gone, and Wang Baolin wanted his daughter to drop out of school several times, but it was Wang Jingzhi's own insistence that he finally finished primary school and went to junior high school.

Wang Baolin actually has his own little Jiujiu, he originally wanted another boy. Later, due to various reasons, my wife just couldn't give birth, so I had to give up.

Fang Xinning was thinking about these old things, only to hear Fang's mother say again: "I asked your second aunt to kiss." Fang Xinning finally raised her head and asked, "Isn't she about to get married?" Fang's mother said, "Scattered." Fang Xin asked strangely, "Scattered?" Fang's mother sighed and said, "Disperse." Her object, who works outside, is not very serious, and she found another one to be with. Fang Xinning asked: "Now come to propose marriage to me again?" Fang's mother said, "What's wrong?" Don't you look down on it? When you go to school, people will come to mention it, and we are afraid that we will delay them and not respond. This time she broke up, maybe it should be. This girl, I fell in love, really, she looks good, her body is strong, and she is a good hand inside and out. I also know that I am alone at home, and I will bring me something at the market. Fang Xinning followed Fang's mother's words and said, "What is she doing now?" Fang's mother said: "Open the steamed bun room." The steamed buns are so good, white and fragrant, that several villages have come to exchange for her steamed buns. Her father said, as long as you want, the house, furniture, nothing we have to do. Look, this is enough to take care of our orphans and widows. Fang Xinning smiled and said, "That's good, your old man can still eat white and fragrant steamed buns in the future." Fang's mother asked, "You agreed?" Well, I have to hurry up and ask your second aunt to call someone back. As she spoke, she threw down the work in her hand, patted the dirt on her body and was about to go out.

Fang Xinning said: "What, what! Who agreed? Fang's mother reprimanded: "You kid, don't know what to do." Your second aunt said, this girl is as good as you. Fang Xinning said: "I think it's a better match for the second aunt." Fang Xinning still wanted to grab a few words, but he didn't think it was interesting. This second lady, it's not good to be idle and do some messy things.

While talking, a girl pushed the door in and quietly shouted "Auntie" a few times. The Fang family and the mother hurriedly went out of the house to see, and it was Wang Jingzhi who came.

Wang Jingzhi was a little embarrassed when she saw Fang Xinning at home, and said with a red face: "Brother Xinning is back?" I'm going to go to the market to have a look, and ask the lady if she needs anything? Fang's mother said, "No need, your brother Xinning brought me a lot." Come, Jingzhi, sit in the house. Wang Jingzhi said, "I ...... No, Auntie, I have to go back quickly, my mother is too busy at home. As she spoke, she smiled with Fang Xinning, and the few neat teeth that were exposed were like white jade, and Fang Xinning's heart really moved. She hurriedly took her leave, and disappeared out of the gate with a deft waist.

Fang's mother pushed Fang Xinning, who was distracted, and said, "Look, what a child? You tell me? "Okay, I didn't say anything bad," Fang Xinning said, "Mother, don't worry about it when you're old." This year, your son will definitely bring you a fairy. Fang's mother threw the vegetables in her hand to the ground and said, "Don't say it's a fairy, it's just an ugly monster, and my mother didn't see you bring back half of it." ”

No, it's ugly, it's my fairy, it's coming. He opened his mobile phone and saw that it was Ji Meiting's text message: I will go to Xin County in the near future, and I will call you when the time comes.

What are you doing in Xin County again? What good news can she bring to herself? People's feelings are the most strange things, sometimes hopeful, sometimes resentful, sometimes happy, sometimes annoying, really hard to predict. Fang Xinning was experiencing such a sudden emotion at this time.
