Within two days, Gao Jianshe didn't arrive at dinner in the evening, so he said that he had something to go out.

Lin Xiaoman didn't care, Xiao Si has a flexible brain, but he is not very diligent, you say that he is not lazy, but he will not take the initiative to find a job, unlike Xiao Er, who has words in his eyes.

In the evening, when all the eaters were gone, Lin Xiaoman realized that Gao Jianshe had not come back.

"Where did Little Four go? Don't come back so late? ”

"It's coming, it's coming." Niu Xiulan smiled, "He didn't let me talk to you, saying that he wanted to surprise you." ”

Lin Xiaoman had a slight bad premonition in her heart, until half an hour later, this premonition came true, and she complained in her heart: It's still a surprise, it's almost a fright.

However, she still greeted her with a smile, "Mom, why are you here?" Xiao Si is really, and he didn't tell me, so I'll pick you up. ”

"I asked him not to tell you," Gao Ma looked at her eyes, that she was satisfied, took her hand and said, "You work so hard, you don't need to let him be an idler, how can you use it." ”

Xiaosi was unhappy, "Mom, who said that I was an idler, I watched my sister-in-law learn to sauce bones." I'll give you a taste of it tomorrow, and see how your son's craftsmanship is? ”

Gao's mother smiled and said, "Okay, then I'll try my old son's handiwork." ”

Lin Xiaoman helped her mother-in-law over, and when Gao's mother came, Gao Xiumei was the happiest.

She jumped up and down happily, "Mom, why are you here?" Great, where's my dad? Didn't come with you? ”

"How can you leave people at home, there are pigs and chickens to feed."

Gao's mother looked around at the store, nodded and boasted: "Xiao Man is really capable, come here to make such a store in the past few days and make a lot of money, right?" ”

Gao Jianjun told the big guy about the accident in the store, and he didn't let them tell the family, so as not to worry about the family. So when Gao's mother came, Xiao Si didn't mention it to her.

"It's okay, it's too short to open and it's not too much money." Lin Xiaoman introduced Sister-in-law Liu, Sister Fang and Tie Zhu to her mother-in-law, and then asked Sister-in-law Liu to take a look at a few more dishes.

Gao's mother pulled her and asked quietly, "Why do you hire so many people?" ”

Lin Xiaoman knew that she was afraid that hiring people would cost more money, and her mother-in-law would live there, so she explained to her: "There is a lot of work in the store, and there are fewer people who can't be busy." ”

Gao's mother pointed to Xiao Si and Xiao Er and the others, "We have so many people in our own family, why is it not enough, you hire those old people, and you can't pay them?" She said angrily: "You kid, it's okay to do anything, but you can't live a good life." It's strange to say, you're also from the countryside, why do you spend money like people in the city? ”

Lin Xiaoman knew that she couldn't finish talking about it, so she quickly opened the topic, "Mom, why didn't you call my dad to come with you, is it okay to leave my dad at home alone?" ”

"Why can't it, let him eat and go to the third child. He's coming, and he has to entrust the chickens and pigs to the third man, troublesome. Gao's mother craned her neck and looked at the store again, "You only have a few tables in this store, how can you need so many people?" That's all for someone else. ”

Lin Xiaoman said with a smile: "It's not enough to hire people when it's busy." Besides, they've only been here for a few days, and they can't do a good job, so I'll quit them as soon as they come! ”

She knew that if she didn't make it clear, her mother-in-law would hold on to the topic and simply explain it to her, "When it first opened, they all helped me a lot." Besides, they can't do it for long, so the reason why they didn't find a job to stay in the store is not because I want them to learn some crafts, and in the future, they can start a small shop or something. ”

Gao's mother didn't care about what she said about "helping a lot", but was very interested in the latter words, "It's true, you, you are thoughtful, Xiaosi, Xiumei, look at how good your second sister-in-law is to you, you have to remember how good your second sister-in-law is in the future!" ”

Then he whispered to her: "You just let Xiao Si and Xiu Mei learn, why do you let Xiao Er also learn?" He's going to learn that he's not going to steal business with you in the future? ”

Lin Xiaoman was afraid that Xiao Er would hear it, so he pushed his mother-in-law and whispered: "They are all relatives, this child is sensible, Jianjun said that he can't leave him alone." Besides, if you really want to open a store in the future, let them go to a place alone, and it can't be said that they can't grab business or not. ”

She put the blame on Gao Jianjun, and sure enough, when she heard that her son let her, she was silent. "Why hasn't Jianjun come back yet?"

"He will come back later if he has something to do in the factory today."

Gao Xiumei came over and coquettishly coquettishly with her, "Mom, you just talk to my sister-in-law, and you don't care about me." ”

"Why didn't you speak, look at how old you are, and you still look like a child......"

Lin Xiaoman listened to the two women, so he went to the back kitchen, Sister-in-law Liu and Niu Xiulan had already cut the braised pork, and made a few simple dishes, and the same vegetables were served and a table was set.

"Mom, Xiaosi didn't say you were coming, these are all leftovers sold today, Mom, can you taste it and see if it's delicious?"

She didn't dare to say things like "you deal with it, eat a meal", if you really want to say that, your mother-in-law can't think that they are crazy, so just talk about dealing with it?

Gao's mother asked, "Let those people in your store come over and eat together." ”

"They eat alone." Sister-in-law Liu and the others sat with them, and they were even more uncomfortable, and Tie Zhu's large amount of food would be embarrassing.

Gao's mother glanced at Sister-in-law Liu's table, and muttered in her heart, "This Xiaoman is too bad at living, no, I have to talk about her well in the evening." ”

"What, don't you leave some for Jianjun?"

Gao's mother cares about her son, Lin Xiaoman naturally won't be unhappy, "It's already set back, I'll take it back by the way when we go back later." ”

When she finished eating, closed the door of the hotel and walked home, Gao's mother looked at Lin Xiaoman's shoes and frowned, "You kid, it's such a cold day, and the road is so slippery, why are you wearing such thin clothes and wearing heels, can you walk?" ”

Lin Xiaoman glanced down, "These are cotton leather shoes, although they lead the way, the soles of the feet are non-slip and not slippery." ”

"Then you have to be careful, come here and I'll help you, you, you have to be careful when walking, especially in the first few months, after these months you'll be fine......"

Lin Xiaoman was confused when he heard it, looked at the ice and snow that had been stepped on under his feet, and thought that he had said that it would be fine if the ice and snow melted in a few months......

Lin Xiaoman was half-supported and half-supported by Gao's mother, this is awkward, "Mom, my shoes are really not slippery, I can just walk by myself." ”

Why does she think it's the opposite, shouldn't she be holding her mother-in-law?

"It's okay, I'll hold you up, be careful."

Lin Xiaoman was helpless, and just as he was about to speak, Gao Jianjun walked over from the front, "I'll make an appointment at this time when you should get off work...... Huh, Mom? Why are you here? ”

Gao's mother smiled: "It's not your daughter-in-law yet, I'm not at ease!" ”

Gao Jianjun looked at his wife in a daze, what do you mean?

Lin Xiaoman shook his head, I don't know?

Gao Jianjun helped his mother in the past, he thought it was Lin Xiaoman who helped her, how could he have thought that the two of them were transferred, "Mom, why didn't you say anything in advance?" Did you find it yourself? ”

"Xiaosi went to pick me up, I didn't let him tell you, you are all busy......" Gao's mother patted his hand, "I'm good, what are you helping me do, helping your daughter-in-law go?" ”

Gao Jianjun's face was inexplicable, "My daughter-in-law? What's wrong with her? Broken foot? ”

Lin Xiaoman hurriedly shook his head, "I'm fine, maybe my mother is afraid that my shoes will slip." ”

Gao's mother said angrily: "These two children, together they are not young, why are they so careless?" ”

Confused by the two of them, Gao Jianjun couldn't help but ask: "Mom, what are you talking about, why didn't I understand?" ”

"Oh, hurry up, you're all going to freeze to death." Gao Xiumei was unhappy when she saw these people grinding behind her, and shouted loudly: "Is there anything you can't say when you go home?" It's true. ”

"Ah, well, well, here you are, this kid, who do you say this temper is with you?" Gao's mother nagged, moved two of them in small steps, and then turned back and instructed, "Help your daughter-in-law, don't let her fall." ”

The two glanced at each other, and Gao Jianjun said in a low voice: "What does our mother mean?" ”

Lin Xiaoman said helplessly: "I don't know, it's mysterious, I'll ask Xiaosi later, maybe he knows that he took his mother back, and he didn't say a word before." ”

There must not be enough bedding at home again, alas, I really have to lay out the floor tonight.

She thought wildly about getting home.

After inspecting all the houses, Gao's mother pulled the two into the house, sat cross-legged on the bed, and began to criticize.

"Didn't I say you, you're not young, why are you so ignorant? If it weren't for Jianjian Xiangxiang to write a letter home, I wouldn't know about it, you tell me, tell me? I don't care about anything else, but I'm more experienced than you......"

The more Gao Jianjun listened, the more wrong he became, and he quickly interrupted her, "No, Mom, you wait, what are you talking about?" What didn't tell you, what experience didn't you experience? Do you know how to open a restaurant? ”

Lin Xiaoman felt that she understood, but she didn't quite understand, how did she see the construction? "Mom, are you wrong?"

Gao's mother was stunned for a moment, "What's the matter, Xiaoman, you didn't tell Jianjun that you were pregnant?" ”

Gao Jianjun sighed and looked at his wife, "Pregnant? Xiaoman, are you pregnant? This sentence was a little surprised, and it improved a lot.

Lin Xiaoman blinked, first stretched out his hand to block her husband, and then said cautiously: "Mom, who said I was pregnant?" I'm not pregnant, am I? ”

Gao Jianjun's movements froze in mid-air, looked at his wife, and then at his mother, came to his senses, and echoed: "Yes, Mom, who said that Xiaoman is pregnant?" If she's pregnant, why don't I know? ”

Gao's mother shook her head when she heard this, "Let's just say that you two are confused...... Let me ask you Xiaoman, how long has it been since your menstrual period? ”

Lin Xiaoman's face was slightly red, and he said in a low voice: "I don't remember," so many things happened a few days ago, how could she remember this, but Gao Jianjun thought about it, "It seems to be a month and a half, right?" ”

Gao's mother frowned slightly, a little dissatisfied that her son remembered such a thing. However, she didn't show it, but said angrily: "Look, it's been so long since the menstrual affair, what are you not pregnant?" ”

Lin Xiaoman was stunned, "Can't you?" Is it just late? I didn't react at all, huh? "Didn't you say that pregnancy makes you nauseous and want to vomit? She doesn't seem to have any of these symptoms.
