Remember [Flag] in a second, popular free reading!

When Xie Xiaonian rode a bicycle to his sister-in-law's house to pick up the green onions, he just pushed open the door of the hall and saw that the orchid had come back, and he was holding the green onions on the kang at this time.

"Auntie, you're back, great, I haven't seen you for a long time, and I miss you."

Orchid put the green onion in her mother's arms, got out of bed happily, and ran to Xie Xiaonian with her cotton shoes in tow.

Then I saw her happily grabbing Xie Xiaonian's sleeve, swaying from side to side, like a child.

"They are all people with in-laws, and they are still like this, they really don't grow up, and they are not afraid that your aunt will laugh at you." Xu Mu said with a smile.

"Our orchids are innocent and cute, I like orchids like this, when did you come back?" Xie Xiaonian said as he took Orchid's hand and walked towards the kang.

"I'll be back in the morning!" When she replied, Orchid's shy face immediately turned red.

"What's wrong? There's something wrong with that! ”

Seeing everyone's expressions, it shouldn't be a bad thing, so Xie Xiaonian asked jokingly.

"Isn't there something wrong, our orchid is about to get married." Mother Xu said happily.

"Set a date?" Xie Xiaonian asked suspiciously.

"Not yet, Orchid came back today to tell us that Baoguo's parents want to come to the house to ask for a daughter-in-law on the twentieth day of the month." Li Suxin explained.

On their side, if they want a daughter-in-law, they are set to get married.

"Looks like you agreed to give it?"

"The two children have been married for so long, and it is time to get married, and Orchid is 19 years old after the New Year, and Baoguo is also 21 years old, and he has a son at home, and he is still anxious to hold his grandson. Now that the county hospital is short of manpower, both of them have applied to be transferred to the county, and if it goes well, they will be able to work in the county in March. Getting married early also saves us from worrying about what grievances Orchid will suffer outside. Li Suxin continued.

"Going to work at the county hospital? This is a good thing, did you find someone to watch it before the wedding day? ”

Orchid can go to work in the county hospital, Xie Xiaonian is still very happy for her.

"We are looking at May 26 next year, and we will discuss it when the parents of Baoguo come, and then you will come over, and we will work together." Xu Mu continued.

"What do you want my daughter-in-law to do, you and my father, and my eldest brother and sister-in-law are at home, if you don't need me, I'd better not come over and get involved." Xie Xiaonian refused.

"Auntie, are you coming, you are my master." Orchid didn't care about being shy, and said nonchalantly.

"It's okay for you to have me as a master in your heart, but it's not suitable for me to have a daughter-in-law, and when you get married, if you don't say it, I will definitely have to go." And the New Year's goods at home are not ready yet, and I have to go to the market on the morning of the twentieth day of the lunar month. Xie Xiaonian refused again.

"Okay then." Orchid said with some disappointment.

"You're coming back this time, and you're going to stay home for a few days?" Orchid is also relatively busy in the hospital, and if she is usually on vacation, it will not exceed three days at most, so Xie Xiaonian asked.

"I'm coming back from leave today, and I'll have to leave later, but we have a holiday on the 25th of the lunar month this year, and I can come back then."

Asking for a daughter-in-law is a matter for the parents and elders of both parties to discuss, and it has nothing to do with the two parties, so the orchid does not have to come back that day.

"That's right, your uncle is also back at 25 and home at 26, when the time comes, we can go to the county together to pick up your uncle, and we can also walk around the county and buy something." Xie Xiaonian said with a smile.

"Okay, I'm usually busy with work, and I haven't been to the county for a long time." When Orchid heard that she could go shopping, she immediately happily agreed.

No matter what age it is, women love to go shopping and buy things.

In the winter, Xie Xiaonian likes to sleep very much, and when Mother Xu, who knows Xiaonian's habits, gets up the next morning, she doesn't call her.

When Xie Xiaonian was about to get up in a daze, he suddenly heard someone outside shouting his name.

When she got up and went out into the yard, she saw her mother-in-law happily coming in with an envelope.

"Xiao Nian, quick, the letter written by the loyal army, you just came back from the army a few days ago, how did the letter arrive, it seems that as soon as you come back, the loyal army will write a letter to you." After Xu Mu handed the letter to Xiao Nian, she said with a smile.

"It should have been written by the two children, and when I came back, the two children had to follow, so I told them that they could write to me often, so I reluctantly persuaded them." Xie Xiaonian guessed.

"Really, then I'm going to see what kind of letter my eldest grandson writes!" Mother Xu came to Xie Xiaonian and wanted to watch it together.

Xie Xiaonian was also a little curious, so he immediately opened the envelope.

I saw a thick pile of letter paper inside, in addition to pancakes and peace written by the loyal army, full of words that missed her, there were also two drawings drawn by the two brothers.

One is a pancake painting, and on it is a child looking at the back of another woman crying, which means that he misses his mother so much that he cries when he thinks about it.

The other is a peaceful drawing, in which he drew a scene of him playing happily with his father and brother for fear that his mother would be worried, telling his mother not to worry about them.

"These two kids are really interesting." Mother Xu looked at these two paintings again and again, and said funny.

"yes, both of them are small ghosts." Xie Xiaonian said with both relief and worry.

"Do you want to write them back? It just so happened that the postman had gone to deliver the letter elsewhere, and he should not have gone far, so he would have to bring you directly to the post office when the time came, so that you would not have to make a trip. Mother Xu asked.

"No need mother, the loyal army will come back at 25, don't believe it hasn't arrived yet, they have already returned. When the loyal army is resting, he often helps to take care of the children, and he is sure to bring pancakes and apples. Xie Xiaonian said confidently.

"What you said also makes sense, by the way, the postman just said that there is also a package from your eldest brother, is it the New Year's goods you sent home?" Xu Mu asked again.

"It should be that the New Year's goods are slower than the letter on the road, although the time to send it is early, but it is possible to arrive on the same day." Xie Xiaonian nodded and said.

"Then I'll ask your sister-in-law to go to the commune to get it."

After saying that, Xu's mother went home in a hurry.

"Xiao Nian, why do you send so many things, how much does it cost!"

At around 11 o'clock, after Li Suxin pushed the bicycle into the yard, he complained to Xie Xiaonian.

"It's not much, sister-in-law, you just take the things home, these are all sent by me to you and the second brother's family, you can go back and watch and distribute them to the second brother's family."

Although Xie Xiaonian and Fan Min don't deal with each other much, Zhongjun and the second brother are brothers after all, and she can't go too far if she looks down and doesn't look up.

"So much, how can we divide the two families, let's give you some, you can take some more and go to your uncle's house and your mother's house." Li Suxin refused.

"My uncle's share of theirs, I will send it directly to their village, and my mother's family will forget it, so as not to cause trouble. I also kept a lot of it myself, and I brought it back when the loyal army came back in a few days, and we didn't have long at home, and we couldn't finish eating more. These things are relatively easy to keep, so you can keep them and eat them slowly, since they are sent to you, I definitely won't ask for them. Xie Xiaonian directly refused.

In the end, Li Suxin saw that Xiao Nian really didn't want it, so he could only push the sack that had not been unloaded from the bicycle and went home.

And how much to give to the second family, it is up to her mother to decide, and the province is more or less, and the second family is angry with her.

And Pearl also received something from Xiao Nian, but the third grandmother's share, she put it away directly, and returned it to her when she saw Xiao Nian one day.

It's been a few days since I came back, and Xie Xiaonian didn't have time to go to my uncle's house to have a look, so the next day, after Xie Xiaonian finished breakfast, he went to his uncle's house with the two big roosters that his sister-in-law caught.

"I thought you should be here in the next two days, this is the green onion, it looks so cute, come, I'll hug it."

As soon as Sun Feng saw Xie Xiaonian coming, his face was immediately full of smiles, and then he untied the green onions tied in Xie Xiaonian's arms.

As for the two big roosters tied to the back basket of the bicycle, Sun Feng was not polite, and directly let Xie Xiaonian push into the yard, anyway, Xiao Nian can get a lot of good things every time she comes, and she has no surprises.

"Concubine, have you received what I sent you?" Xie Xiaonian greeted the others and asked after entering the house.

"I got it, someone from the post office came to inform me this morning, your eldest cousin has gone to the commune to get it, don't keep sending things here, let your in-laws know, how bad it is." Sun Feng instructed.

"It's okay, the things I sent were all agreed by the loyal army, and he also said that I should send more, and my mother-in-law also has it, and they can't find fault with it." Xie Xiaonian comforted.

"I know that the boy of Zhongjun is a good one, but you can't do too much, everything still has to be based on the in-laws, so as not to get angry."

Seeing that the loyal army was so filial and thought about them in everything, Sun Feng was still very happy.

"It's hard for you to come back once, take a chicken and go to your eldest sister's house later, after all, it's a village, it's not good if we don't go to her." Uncle said aloud.

"Let's go another day, I caught two chickens from my sister-in-law today, if I send another one, there will be nothing at home." Xie Xiaonian said with some resistance.

This time she came back in a hurry, she didn't bring anything, so she couldn't hide it, and she brought a big bag and a small bag to this side, just two chickens, not enough for them to eat, how could she take another one.

"We are all our own family, it doesn't matter if we eat or not, but we can't give your eldest sister a chance to pick on it." Sun Feng said disapprovingly.

"Alright then, I'll go later." Xie Xiaonian said with some reluctance.

Although the eldest sister of Zhongjun is also good to her, for her, she is still the closest to her uncle's family.
