Xiao Nini was tired of playing in the car, rubbing her eyes and leaning on her mother, Lin Tong picked her up, the place was too small, the old lady next to her asked her to put her legs on herself, Lin Tong gently patted her daughter to coax her to sleep.

When it was almost time to get to the station, Lin Tong woke Nini up, and the little girl pouted and shouted, "Mom, I'm so tired, I want to sleep." ”

"I'm going to be there soon, can I sleep when I get home?" You must know that this is just a small town, and parking is only a minute or two, Lin Tong coaxed her to get up, helped her put on her hat, and took her bag and her little hand to the door to wait for parking.

Xu Laosan came to pick up the station, Lin Tong came out with the listless Nini, and he hurriedly picked up the child, "Sister-in-law has worked hard." ”

Lin Tong's arm was really sore, and he said politely with a smile: "Why are you here, you are not a guest, you don't have to pick up the station, and I don't have any luggage." ”

Xu Laosan said to her first: "It's not far." Then he said, "It seems to have grown up a little more." ”

Nini called "Third Uncle" softly and asked him, "Where is Brother Xiaozhu?" ”

"Help your third aunt in the cake ball!" After he finished speaking, he asked with some surprise: "Sister-in-law, why are you two alone, Xiao Nian?" ”

"My brother went to the army for training." The little girl hurriedly replied, and said unhappily: "My brother is not at home, and he won't come back for the New Year." ”

"Your eldest brother sent him to exercise."

Xu Laosan was a little surprised, "Xiao Nian is still a child." ”

Lin Tong said lightly: "If the jade is not cut, he is not small." ”

Xu Laosan stopped talking after hearing this, and he just asked about other people's own affairs.

Lin Tong asked, "Yubo's cake shop is open for business?" ”

"It's been half a month, and the business is not bad, and I can earn a little every day." Speaking of this, Xu Laoyi was full of smiles, he was really happy, at first he was afraid that there would be no business, but he didn't expect someone to ask as soon as it was listed, they had eaten or seen cakes in other places, and in the first few days, they sold one or two birthday cakes every day, Yubo said that the cost of selling a cake on the day was earned, and there were cut cakes, old-fashioned cakes, small cakes, and much more money than the store.

Xu Laosan is very grateful to his sister-in-law, if there was no sister-in-law, their family would not be like this, just look at the lives of most people in the village.

"Sister-in-law, our mother has not been in a good mood lately, what is she going to say something unpleasant, for the sake of her age, don't worry about her, and don't be angry." Xu Laosan came to pick her up just to give her a wake-up call.

Lin Tong frowned, "Why are you in a bad mood?" Tired or sick? "Didn't you say on the phone that your health was not good?

Xu Laosan only felt that the old man blushed, thinking that he was tired of helping their family look at the store.

"It's my second brother, I called a few days ago, saying that it was that woman who gave birth to a son, but it didn't stand, and it was gone two days after birth."

Lin Tong really didn't know about it, since the death of the old man, the couple broke off contact with Xu Laosan, Xu Laosan also knew about it, and never mentioned the matter of the second child in front of them.

However, with the old lady here, no matter how much they don't deal with each other, it is impossible for them to really be like the eldest and the second child do not get along.

Lin Tong raised his eyebrows, don't tell the old lady if the child doesn't stop, I really don't know what he thinks in his head? Think the old lady is too healthy?

"Your second brother and her got a marriage certificate?"

"No, the second brother's household registration is pinched in his mother's hand, and his mother does not allow him to marry the woman, and he agreed, he has written a few times before, and he didn't mention the woman's pregnancy, but I didn't expect to give birth to it."

Xu Laosan said with some embarrassment: "The second brother has to die of sadness, and the good big fat boy is gone." ”

Lin Tong didn't pity Xu Lao Er at all, she only felt that the child's life was not good and she was reincarnated into the woman's belly, she sneered: "Is he still sad?" I thought he was an animal! His children are all older, and he is like an enemy, and I don't see him feel a little sad. ”

Xu Laosan was stunned for a moment, and thought about it, after all, this newborn child is still less emotionally invested, unlike those ...... When the lock pillar was small, the second brother also used the child as a treasure. Who would have thought that it would be like this in just a few years?

However, my sister-in-law's words are a little too cold-blooded!

He looked at his sister-in-law with a somewhat complicated look, thinking that the old lady was muttering at home all day long, "Your sister-in-law is a bad billet, our family used to live well, and your eldest brother is also obedient, since he married your sister-in-law, this family has become worse than a day, your eldest brother is getting bigger and bigger, but what's the use?" That's a conscienceless, I shouldn't have forced him to marry this bad ...... in the first place."

Even he and his daughter-in-law have mixed feelings for their sister-in-law......

Lin Tong entered from the front store, the old lady was selling goods, and when she heard Nini shouting loudly, "Grandma, my mother and I have come to see you", her eyelids raised, "I'm back, go to the back room, the back room is warm." ”

Usually there is no one at home during the day, and the back room does not burn the fire during the day, she stays in the store, and the family of three stays in the cake shop, and the fire is not a waste of firewood, but the third child did not stop adding firewood to the stove early this morning, she felt strange, it turned out that the two of them came.

Wait, how can it be the two of them, Xiao Nian?

After selling the goods and collecting the money, she asked, "Why are you two?" Xiao Nian didn't come back? ”

Lin Tong explained: "Xiao Nian went to the army for exercise, not at home. ”

The old lady was a little disappointed and muttered in a low voice, "I didn't come." Lin Tong was speechless when she heard this, but the old lady was such a person, her words never made people happy, and she was not rare to worry about her.

But the old lady soon felt that this was okay, she patted her thigh, "If you don't go back, you won't go back, so you don't have to do a happy event for the old Yang family and come to him to ask for money." That family is very shameless, and it is not good for Xiao Nian to let them rely on it. ”

She said and glanced at Lin Tong: "Tell me, how did the old Yang family treat our Xiaonian at the beginning, his family eats and drinks spicy food, he hasn't even taken care of our Xiaonian's meal, and he hasn't even looked at him, how can you be so good, and let that Dabao learn to make cakes......"

Lin Tong said with a smile: "This is what Xiao Nian requested, he can't let it go, and I can't force him to leave it alone!" However, let's not talk about how the old Yang family used to be, Dabao's child is now more promising, and he is quite capable, and he can provoke the family in the future, and Xiao Nian will rest assured that he will no longer care about it, which is also a good thing. ”

The old lady pursed her lips, but she didn't say much about it, but warned her: "If the old Yang family comes to let you salute, you can't go!" ”

Lin Tong wanted to say, then why did you let me come back at this time?

There are a lot of weddings before the Spring Festival in rural areas, because the pigs that have been raised for a year can be killed, and the meat and vegetables that can't be eaten can be frozen and eaten slowly, of course, with the improvement of living conditions, the number of marriages in winter is also decreasing little by little.

The old lady said that she was asked to go to the back room, but the nagging didn't stop, saying that she hadn't seen her eldest son and Xiao Nian for a long time, and she raised these children and grandchildren for nothing, and they didn't come back to see her, and she didn't come back for a long time......
