He woke up early the next morning. The sky was slightly bright, and the air smelled cold and cold. Hetu is a person who recognizes beds, and as long as he sleeps in a different place, he will always wake up very early. She gently got out of bed, changed into her own clothes, folded the pajamas neatly and placed them on the chair, and called Heyi to get up. He Yi rubbed his eyes and reluctantly propped up half of his body, and while changing her clothes, He Yi said softly: "Shhh, don't wake up your Sister Xiuhan." ”

After the two of them changed their clothes and washed up, they went to the kitchen to prepare breakfast. The novel kitchen utensils in the kitchen were something that Hedi had never seen before, and she didn't know how to use them after studying them for a long time, and there was no place on the pot table where she could make a fire to cook. He Yi sat on the chair and looked at her in a daze, yawned and said, "Sister, I want to sleep." ”

"It's not a good boy to sleep in." He Tu didn't look back, and after a sentence of reproach, he still studied it carefully. There was a sound of footsteps outside, Hui Rui appeared at the door with her sleeves rolled, and when she saw Hetuheyi, her eyes widened in surprise, "Why did you two get up so early?" ”

"Auntie." He Yi smiled embarrassedly, "He Yi and I don't have the habit of sleeping lazy. ”

Hui Rui touched Heyi's head and said with a smile: "Are you hungry?" Wait, Auntie will make you breakfast. She nagged while taking vegetables from the refrigerator, "Alas, you two are really sensible children, my family Xiuhan sleeps lazily every day, and is late for school, if Xiuhan is half as sensible as you, I will be much more relieved." ”

"Auntie, I'll help you." He Di wanted to take the basket of washing vegetables from Hui Rui's hand, but Hui Rui pushed it away, "You go and sit, if you are bored, go watch TV, Auntie is ready to call you." ”

"It's okay, Auntie, I can cook."

Hui Rui looked at Hetu for a few seconds, and still smiled: "Okay, you are still polite to Auntie, take your sister to the living room to watch TV." ”

He couldn't resist Hui Rui, so he had to walk out with Heyi. Heyi was very excited, holding the remote control and pressing it back and forth. He Tu sat upright on the sofa, always feeling that he had to do something to repay Hui Rui for taking care of him. But what to do, she couldn't think of it, and she suddenly felt worried.

After the group finished breakfast, Lao He went out to the company, and when Hedi rushed to help Huirui wash the dishes, Xiuhan dragged his lazy body to the kitchen, "Mom, do you have anything to eat?" I'm hungry. ”

"You see, you see." Hui Rui smiled and glanced at Xiuhan, "I didn't get up until now." ”

"I slept late last night." Xiuhan put on a tendency to be coquettish, but Hui Rui hurriedly dodged and said, "There are cakes in the refrigerator, take them and eat them yourself." ”

"Hmph." Xiuhan pouted and walked away. He Tu washed the dishes carefully, seemed to ignore everything around him, and after everything was cleaned up, he said, "Auntie, I'll go back with Heyi first." ”

"Okay, I'll send you there." Hui Rui said and walked towards his living room. Xiuhan sat on the chair and looked up at Hetu, crossed Erlang's legs and said, "It's still early, what are you anxious about?" ”

"It's not early." Hedi sat down across from her, "It's getting late. ”

Xiuhan didn't seem to hear her words, and laughed stupidly with a cake in his mouth, and suddenly said, "Do you remember what happened last night?" ”

"Last night?" He Tu smiled, "I will never forget it for the rest of my life." ”

"Xing Siyun sent me back, didn't she?" Xiuhan bit his lip and approached her, and asked mysteriously, but without waiting for Hetu to answer, he said, "It's good." That's great. ”

"You know what you look like right now." He held his chin and said, "It's like my stupid sheep who only eats the grass left over from other people's food." ”

Xiuhan grimaced at her, "What do you think of Xing Siyun?" I've told you before, but you've never seen him before, but this time, what kind of person do you think he is? She blushed with excitement, almost touching Hedi's face.

"That's good." He Tu thought about it seriously, "It's good." ”

"That's good, huh?" Xiuhan said with a little disappointment.

"yes." He Tu looked at her innocently, "It's really good." ”

"Okay."

The two of them chatted with each other, and suddenly ran in from the outside and shouted, "Sister, Aunt Huirui asked me to call you." ”

"I'll send you there." Xiuhan stood up with Hedi. He Tu glanced back at her who was still wearing pajamas, and said, "You haven't washed your face, so forget it." ”

"Oh, you don't know when you'll see you again this time, I'll send you off, anyway, I don't care, others see me when they see my sloppy appearance, anyway, I'm already fortunate to have it, I don't care about other people's opinions." Xiu Han said triumphantly, holding Hedi's arm and walking outside with a big grin. He Di had no choice but to let her go with her, but Hui Rui didn't look surprised, only glanced at Xiuhan a few times, and didn't say anything.

When he arrived at Hexin's house, Hedi was surprised to find that Liu Ji was actually at home, the atmosphere at home was still dull, and Hexin accompanied Hefu to sit at the table and write homework. He Yi came in with Heyi, she just glanced up and didn't say anything. He Tu asked He Yi to read a book, and he sat down next to He Xin.

"Sister, didn't my brother-in-law go to work today?" He Tu glanced at Liu Ji, who was sitting on the sofa reading the newspaper, and asked in a low voice.

"Hmm." Hexin nodded, her expression looked a little nervous, she took Hexin's hand, pinched it, and let it go again.

"Hello brother-in-law." He Tu said cautiously. Liu Ji raised his gloomy face and nodded at her.

"Hedi, I want to say to him, I'll go home with you tomorrow."

"Then say it." He Tu lowered his voice and said almost in a breathless voice. She felt as if she was playing tunnel warfare, and she felt a little excited in her heart.

"Then I said it." He Xin looked at her face, bit her lip, stood up hesitantly, stepped next to Liu Ji, stirred her hands and asked, "That...... Are you hungry? I'm going to cook. ”

"What time is it?" Liu Ji didn't raise his head, "I didn't have breakfast just now." ”

"Oh." He Xin sat down beside him, her movements a little numb and stiff, "I want to ...... I want to go home tomorrow......"

"Home?" This time Liu Ji raised his head to look at her, but his expression was even more gloomy, and there was even anger in his eyes. But he didn't say anything, just turned his head to look at Hedi, and still looked down at the newspaper.

"Will you agree?" Hexin asked cautiously, unable to figure out what was going on in his mind.

"Hmph." Liu Ji sneered, "Could it be that our family can afford to hire a nanny?" ”

"Huh?" Hexin was stunned, and didn't understand what he meant by this for a while.

"You're gone, who's going to cook at home?" Liu Ji looked at her indifferently, "Do you want me to go to work and cook again?" ”

Hexin lowered her head and stopped talking, she really didn't have anything to say. The family's expenses are all earned by Liu Ji alone, if it were not for Liu Ji, maybe her life would not be in the same conditions as it is now. However, is it because she married Liu Ji that she will never go home?

"Brother-in-law." He Tu couldn't hold back for a while, stood up and said, "My dad also told my sister to go back, just go back for two days, brother-in-law, can you eat in the restaurant outside first." ”

Liu Ji looked at her coldly and didn't speak for a long time. Hexin was nervous next to her and could barely sit still, her hands were sweaty, and her clothes were almost soaked. I don't know how long it took, but the atmosphere in the room was about to be broken like a filament. He Tu felt scared, but she still looked up at Liu Ji, who was staring at her, she felt that she didn't care about it, she just let her sister go home, and this brother-in-law would not lose meat.

"Okay." Liu Ji finally breathed a sigh of relief, although he was very reluctant to let Hexin go back, but because he wanted to save face in front of his father-in-law and mother-in-law, he reluctantly agreed. Hexin's nervousness disappeared suddenly, she stood up happily, rubbed her hands in place and laughed for a long time, and said excitedly: "I will make food for everyone at noon today." Didn't you say I haven't eaten meat for a long time, so I'll fry some beef and eat it, how about it? ”

"You bought the emotional beef, and you paid for it?" Liu Ji didn't appreciate her words at all, and still mocked coldly. As if she hadn't heard her, she happily walked up to Hexin, held her hand tightly, and nodded vigorously at her.

He Tu had mixed feelings in her heart, even if she didn't go through anything, she could see what her sister's status was in this family. It's already like this when my parents-in-law died, and I don't know how much to treat her when I'm alive. Hexin actually endured it until now, and she didn't say a word of complaint to her family, how many grievances did she have in her heart, and how did she get over these days?

Hexin slept with Heyi at night, and Hefu slept with Liu Ji. Hexin happily didn't close her eyes all night, and in the morning before she opened her eyes, Hexin had already gotten up, and carefully packed up her things home in the living room, along with Hetu. When Hetu got up to brush his teeth and wash his face, a delicious breakfast was already on the table, and Hexin greeted while wiping his hands on his apron: "Hurry up and wash your face and eat, and call Heyi Hefu up." ”

He Di agreed, and after washing up, he went to call He Yi to eat. After the brothers and sisters sat together, Liu Ji came out of the bedroom, he sat at the main table, picked up the chopsticks and ate a mouthful of food, and the rest picked up the chopsticks and devoured them.

"Eat slowly." He Tu took Heyi's hand and wiped the greasy corners of her mouth. He Yi had the dish in his mouth and said vaguely: "The dish my sister made today is really delicious." ”

He Xin smiled and said to Liu Ji: "By the way, I put pickled vegetables in the refrigerator, which can be eaten for two or three days, and I also made some cakes." If you change out of your dirty clothes, just pile them in the dirty laundry basket and wash them when I come back. ”

"Hmm." Liu Ji responded, his eyes were fixed on the newspaper, and he didn't look at his wife. After eating, Hexin took her sister and younger brother to prepare to set off, Liu Ji had already entered the study and closed the door tightly, and had no intention of sending them. Before leaving the door, Hedi remembered something again, and ran to the phone to dial the phone number.

"I'll tell Xiuhan."

"Say it, say it." Today's Hexin is especially happy, and there is no objection to Hexin's behavior at all.

said goodbye to Xiuhan, and Xiuhan repeatedly wanted to say that he would send her, but he refused. She said, "I don't need you to deliver it, we'll meet soon anyway, and when I get home, call you, you can remember to pick it up." ”

"I know, I know, I'll bring you a gift next time I go to your house."

He sneered, "Okay, I know, I'm leaving, I'll hang up." ”

"Okay, bye-bye." Xiuhan's voice paused, "Have a good trip, remember to be happy." ”

Hanging up the phone, he walked out with his luggage. Somehow, she suddenly had a very bad premonition in her heart, but she couldn't say what it was, she just felt very uncomfortable, and her internal organs were almost broken. She comforted herself, probably because she was afraid of motion sickness if she had to ride in the car, it must be so, she remembered the experience of riding in the car when she came, and it felt uncomfortable. On the way there, she told Hexin about it, and Hexin hurriedly said: "Didn't you say it earlier, I bought motion sickness medicine, and you can take one pill when you get in the car later." ”

"Really?" Half of Hedi's fear disappeared suddenly, "That's good, that's good." ”

"Your brother-in-law is also motion sickness, and I bought this medicine for him." He Xin smiled and tightened his hand. He Fu walked in front of him with his hands behind his back and followed the little adult, his little head swaying left and right, not timid at all. He Tu pointed at Hefu and said with a smile: "Look at Hefu, shaking his head and swinging his head, he looks like a city person." ”

Hexin smiled, and there seemed to be some sadness in her eyes, "What's good in the city, according to me, it's better at home." ”

"That's for sure." He Tu smiled proudly, "I know my family very well, and when I get to the city, my eyes are black, and I don't know where to go." ”

"Then don't marry here in the future." He Xin laughed teasingly. Hedi's face turned red all of a sudden, she gently pushed her sister's shoulder, pouted and said, "I don't want to marry." ”

"It's not an option for you." Hexin turned her head and looked ahead, "Don't marry, hehe, what a stupid sentence." ”

took the shuttle bus, and because of the effect of motion sickness medicine, Hetu quickly fell asleep. When Hexin woke her up, the car had stopped at a familiar intersection, she jumped up from the chair suddenly, looked around in a bit of confusion, and then followed Hexin out of the car.

He ran so fast that he disappeared after a while. From time to time, Hexin urged Hedi to let her go faster, and she greeted the people she knew passing by on the side of the road. When the familiar door of the house appeared in front of her eyes, Hexin almost ran happily. Jiafu and Cuiying stood at the door and watched them, leaning on them, and their little mouths kept talking about what they had seen.

"Mom, Dad!" Hexin took three steps and two steps to her parents, almost crying. Jiafu took the luggage in her hand and said, "It's good to come back, let's go in quickly." ”

Cuiying also had wet eyes, one hand around Hexin's shoulder, and the other hand secretly wiped the corners of her eyes. The scene that should have been happy suddenly became a little sad, and even the excited game couldn't help but quiet down, looking at the mother and sister who wiped each other's tears in puzzlement.

"Is Liu Ji good to you? How are you doing over there? Cui Ying asked repeatedly, choked in her voice. Hexin nodded, she couldn't speak anymore, her face was already full of tears. Cuiying took out a handkerchief to wipe away her tears, and said with a reluctant smile: "It's okay, no matter what, my parents are still there, if you are wronged, tell your mother, and your mother will settle accounts with him." ”

"Nope." Hexin finally spoke, "He's very good to me, Mom, don't worry, I'm just too homesick." ”

He Di couldn't help but want to say what she saw with her eyes for a while, but after looking at Hexin's appearance, she finally held back. Maybe my sister has her own reasons for doing this, and saying it by herself will affect her mood. So He Tu bit his lip tightly and followed behind He Xin without saying a word. When the family entered the house, Cuiying turned her head to look at Hedi as if she had just remembered, and asked, "Did you go to your sister's house to help your sister do things?" Is there any obedience? ”

"Mom." Hexin hurriedly said, "Hexin is sensible, and he rushes to help me do any work." She helped Cuiying sit down, "It's good that you let Hedi go to my house, otherwise I really don't know how to get through it." ”

"Wouldn't Heyi Hefu be too naughty when he lived in your house?" Cuiying then asked, squinting at Heyi, "Especially this girl, what kind of skin does she look like." ”

Heyi grimaced at Cuiying and ran to the pot to find a steamed bun to eat. Cuiying snorted and laughed, pointed to the cabinet and said, "In the plate in the cabinet, don't look for it." ”

"Mom, I really want our steamed buns." He Yi said with a smile while holding the steamed bun, breaking the steamed bun in half and handing it to Hetu in half. Before the motion sickness had passed, he shook his head.

The family sat and exchanged pleasantries for a while, and then he got up and prepared to make lunch. Cuiying stopped her and said, "You go with your sister to talk, I'll cook today's meal." ”

"Huh?" He Tu looked at her in surprise, "I'd better come." ”

"Look at your face." Cuiying looked at her with a frown, "Why did you lose so much weight in two days?" You go and accompany your sister, and when it's almost ready, come out and clean up the table. ”

"Mom, I'll do it." Hexin came out of the back room, "I'm not tired, let Hexin rest." ”

"A meal, why are you still rushing to make it." Cuiying reproached, "Hurry up and go in and sit." ”

Hexin Hedi entered the back room at this time, but he still sat and stood or stood, and his heart was not comfortable at all. After chatting for two minutes, the two of them ran out to help, although they only added firewood and handed over things, but they were finally much more comfortable.

The sadness of the first meeting has passed, and now everyone feels warmth and joy in their hearts. How long has it been since the family has been together like this? He Di couldn't remember, the day He Xin got married seemed to be a dream in his mind, it seemed that He Xin had married very early and hadn't come home for a long time. At this time, seeing her sister's familiar figure busy in the kitchen, she felt full and happy in her heart, even if she was busy and tired, she didn't feel tired and bored at all. In addition, the two little ghost heads also came back, and the whole courtyard was full of popularity at once. "Is this a home?" He thought to heartedness.

"Hedi, you go and decorate the hay on the field." He Xin shouted to Hedi, who didn't come back to her senses for a while, and looked at her blankly. Hexin shouted again, and then she hurriedly agreed, carrying the basket and walking outside the courtyard gate.

The sun hung high overhead, and he raised a hand to cover the sunlight and walked towards a clearing outside the courtyard wall. She felt as if something was missing, as if a piece was empty, and she couldn't remember what was empty. Absentmindedly filled with a basket of hay, she turned around and suddenly saw the little hole in the dirt, and froze.

"Ah, Zhu Hai." She screamed inwardly, turned her head to see that there was no one around, put down the basket of hay, and ran quickly towards the small dirt hole.

"I don't know if he wrote to me, what has he been doing in the past two days since I left?" He Tu thought in a panic, and his nervous hands trembled a little. The clods at the entrance of the cave seemed to have been moved, and she moved them one by one, reaching into it, and her breath stopped when her fingertips touched a piece of paper with hard, sharp corners.

"He did write to me." Feeling a little ecstatic, she took out the square stack of paper, hid it in her underwear, and restored the hole to its normal state, before getting up and walking towards the basket.

"Calm, calm." She silently said to herself, "I'll watch when they all sleep at night." She picked up the basket, turned around and walked towards the gate of the courtyard, and just turned the corner, she suddenly saw Herui standing in the corner with her head tilted, looking at her with a smile on her face.

He Tu chuckled in his heart, and hurriedly remembered whether he had been seen when he had just taken the letter. She repeatedly made sure that there was no shadow of Herui in her perspective just now, and then she pretended to be calm and asked, "What are you doing standing here?" ”

"This is not your territory, you can stand wherever I want." Herui retorted. He Tu smiled disapprovingly and said, "Okay, whatever you want." Then he walked over her body and straight forward, without looking at her. Herui was anxious and shouted behind Hedi: "Don't think that you will become a city citizen if you go to the city for two days. ”

"When did I say I was from the city?" He Tu glared back at her, and quickened his pace. She didn't want to quarrel with Herui, Herui's thinking always made her unable to understand, even if she quarreled, she couldn't win, and she was always at a loss. Stepping into the courtyard, Hexin was sitting on the steps watching Heyi and Hefu playing, and suddenly saw Herui with a drooping face who came in behind Hedi, and couldn't help asking, "What's wrong with Herui?" ”

"She bullied me!" He Rui pointed at He Tu and said, a sharp voice lingering over the courtyard.

"Sister, do you believe it?" He rolled his eyes and placed the basket in front of the stove. He Xin shook her head with a smile and said to He Rui: "Don't bully your second sister, I don't know what your second sister's temperament is." ”

"She's just bullying me." Herui pursed her lips, "You don't believe me, believe her, and let her go to the city, not let me go." ”

"Next time, I'll take you there next time." He Xin said a few perfunctory words, got up and went back to the kitchen. The meal was almost done, and several dishes had been served to the table one after another. After the last pot of soup was brought to the table, Cuiying shouted, "It's time to eat!" ”

"It's time to eat!" He Yi raised his hands and ran around the yard, dragging Jiafu into the kitchen. Jiafu looked at her with a smile, reached out and hugged Heyi to his lap, and lowered his head to ask her about school.

"Oh, it's so big, and you're still hugging her like this." Cui Ying frowned and said, "Let's sit down and eat." ”

He Yi made a mischievous grimace, jumped off Jiafu's knees, sat down beside Hedi, pointed to the dish opposite and said, "Sister, I want to eat that." ”

"Before you open your chopsticks, you want to eat." Emerald Shadow reproached again. He Yi stopped talking, pursed his lips and looked at the dish, his saliva seemed to be about to fall. Herui smiled gloatingly, waited for Jiafu to eat his first bite of food, and reached out to take the dish to him.

"Sister, I want to eat!" He Yi said again.

"Herui, put the plate in the middle." Hexin said with a straight face. Although her temper is mild, she is the oldest one in the junior, and Herui is usually a little afraid of her, plus she has not seen her for a long time, and she is a little afraid of Hexin in her heart.

After eating, it's time to take a nap, and in the afternoon, you have to go to the field to keep your spirits up so that you can work well. In order to prevent Heyi Hefu from arguing with his parents, Hedi took them to sleep in the kitchen, and Jiafu Cuiying went to sleep on the kang in the big room. Hexin Hedi was listening to Heyi talk about things in school, and Herui suddenly jumped up from outside the door and said, "Sister, Dad called you!" ”

"Call me?" Hexin stood up, "What did you call me for?" ”

"You'll find out when you go." After saying that, Herui turned around and ran out. Hexin put on her clothes and walked into the big room suspiciously. Seeing Jiafu and Cuiying sitting at the table seriously, they were stunned for a while.

"Mom and Dad, what's wrong with me?" She said as she stood in the doorway, and retracted the foot she had stepped out of.

"You come in." Jiafu beckoned to her, "Sit here." ”

"Oh." Hexin sat down crampedly across from them. She rarely had such a solemn conversation with her parents, and she felt a little overwhelmed.

"What's going on with your parents-in-law?" Cui Ying was anxious, and before Hexin could sit down, she asked, "Why didn't you tell us about such a big thing?" You can't tell you clearly on the phone, but now that you're back, hurry up and explain this matter to us, what's going on? ”

Hexin had already guessed that this was what her parents were going to ask her. It's just that she has been nervous in her heart, because Liu Ji and because of herself, she is unwilling to say this. At this time, looking at the anxious faces of her parents, she hung her head, not knowing how to speak.

"You say, we're not outsiders." Jiafu said, "My in-laws have passed away, and we don't even know when the funeral will be held. ”

"It's not that I don't say it." He Xin said in a snort, "It's Liu Ji...... He didn't want to talk about it again......"

"You say it here, and he doesn't know." Cuiying became more and more anxious, "Ouch, you kid, I'm really anxious." ”

"Then I said, don't mention it in front of Liu Ji." Hexin raised her face, her eyes flashed with tears, and her expression was extremely aggrieved, "My father-in-law and mother-in-law left because of Liu Ji." ”
