This trip to the sixth aunt's house made Li Dong disgusted, and it took him several days to adjust his mood. Li Dong didn't tell his family about it, and talking too much would only increase the embarrassment of the sixth uncle. The path is all chosen by yourself, and since you have chosen, you must stick to it no matter what.

Grandma's birthday is two days away, and according to grandma's meaning, she wants to go home with grandpa. After all, it's been almost four months since I came out, and it's normal for the second elder to be a little homesick, but the key is that I haven't seen my grandchildren for a few months, so I miss it.

"Auntie, grandpa is going back the day after tomorrow, why don't we celebrate grandma's birthday in advance?" Li Dong suggested to A-Niang.

"Okay, I was supposed to accompany your grandmother and them back, but the store is really inseparable from people. Now it's okay, you can celebrate it well, and let your aunt and me do our filial piety. Lu Xiumei was 10,000 in favor of this suggestion.

"Then it's decided, the time is set for tomorrow at noon, I'll go and order a cake for grandma." Li Dong has already bought a train ticket for tomorrow night, so the time can only be placed at noon.

"Remember to order a better one, but don't be too expensive, otherwise your grandma will definitely feel distressed to death even if she doesn't say it." Lu Xiumei is still very familiar with A-Niang's character, and she is not afraid of spending money, but afraid of spending the wrong money.

"Got it, it's going to be heavy, not bells and whistles, right?" Li Dong has long figured out his grandmother's consumption habits, in fact, this is also the resonance of most people.

When he came to the pastry shop, Li Dong remembered A-Niang's teachings, chose a very popular cake, and specially asked to add a text.

"Grandma is going to get younger and younger. - Li Xiaoyu. ”

The reason why I want to use the name of the little girl is mainly because this sentence is only the most suitable for the little girl to say, and Li Dong is a bit grandiose when he says it.

After ordering the cake, Li Dong also planned to buy a birthday gift for his grandmother, although A-Niang must have prepared it, but he also wanted to do his filial piety. Grandpa and grandpa have been working hard in the past few months, but he has seen it all in his eyes, and he has long wanted to find an opportunity to make up for the second elder.

Walking into a clothing store, Li Dong plans to pick out a piece of clothing as a gift for himself. He just bought a bracelet for his grandmother during the Chinese New Year, and he estimated that this time A-Niang gave either earrings or necklaces. After all, the ring aunt has already given it, and if you send it again, grandma will offend people whether she wears it or not.

Since A-Niang chose gold jewelry, Li Dong naturally couldn't choose the same, otherwise it would be too vulgar and not close enough. Picking and choosing, he finally chose a deerskin jacket, the fabric is soft, the workmanship is fine, the style is generous, the price is 425 yuan, Li Dong bought it without blinking.

At noon the next day, Lu Xiumei gave A-Niang a surprise, she learned this trick from Li Dong, and the effect was really good. Grandma was very excited and happy.

Lu Xiumei really gave a pair of earrings, and each earring was inlaid with a jadeite, although it was not big, but it looked like the grade had been raised a lot.

Grandma happily tried it on the spot, and complained that her eldest daughter spent money indiscriminately. When it was Li Dong's turn to take out the gift, the grandmother was much more direct, and immediately left it to put it on, constantly praising the eldest grandson's vision.

This is not a lie, people rely on clothes and Buddha rely on gold, and grandma looks several years younger when she wears this deerskin jacket. Lu Xiumei looked at her eldest son's gift more pleasing to her mother than her own, and was jealous.

Finally, it was a gift from the little girl, Li Dong gave her an idea, so the little girl drew a birthday picture for her grandmother under the guidance of the teacher. Grandma solemnly put it away, and said on the spot that she wanted to frame it and hang it in the bedroom. The little girl was happy, and she suddenly stinked and fart, and she really thought of herself as a painter.

In the evening, Li Dong set off with his grandfather and got on the train back to his hometown smoothly. After a good night's sleep, I arrived in Chining City early the next morning, and then transferred back to Ping'an City.

"Grandpa, let's go to my house to rest first, it's not too late to go back after we eat." After all, it was hard to do a night train, although it was a sleeper ticket.

"No, go back early and feel at ease, how can you stay." Grandma waved her hand and refused.

"Yes, Dongzi, you can get busy, let's just go back by ourselves." Grandpa added.

"It's okay, Grandpa. With so much luggage, since you don't need to rest, I'll send you back. ”

Lu Xiumei prepared a big bag of food, drink and clothes for the second elder, after all, grandpa and grandpa can be regarded as returning home, too shabby to be laughed at, she and grandma are the kind of people who love face very much.

……

"Auntie, are you at home? Grandpa is back. Li Dong shouted, putting his luggage on the threshold stone, there was not even a car in the countryside, but he was tired.

"Eh, father, mother, why did you come back, didn't you stay at your aunt's house?" It's not popular to celebrate birthdays these days, everyone doesn't have the habit of remembering birthdays, and my aunt doesn't think about it.

"Auntie, that's the case, today is grandma's birthday, I don't want to go home, so I came back to take a look, and by the way, I stayed at home for three or four days." Li Dong explained on the side.

"I said eldest daughter-in-law, do you have an opinion about me, why do I have to report to you even when I go home?" Grandma probably felt that her status at home had been challenged, and she took the opportunity to complain.

"Okay, let's say a few words on the big day, the eldest daughter-in-law also cares about us kindly." Grandpa couldn't see it anymore and said a fair word.

Li Dong persuaded a few words on the side, and the eldest aunt took the initiative to admit her mistake, and finally made her grandma happy again. At noon, he had lunch at his grandmother's house, and he left in the afternoon, and his cousin was still waiting for his vegetables.

In the evening, the uncle made a sumptuous dinner to celebrate the birthday of the grandmother, and even the aunt and the brother-in-law also came over.

"Mother, you're really dressed in good spirits, if it weren't for your own family, I wouldn't dare to recognize it." The aunt complimented that she was the sweetest mouth among the siblings.

"That is, these earrings were bought by your eldest sister, and the clothes were specially picked by Dongzi. Isn't it just a birthday, why buy it so expensive, it's a waste of money. ”

Grandma is the same set of rhetoric, several daughters-in-law were hit hard by her, they didn't even have a ring, and their mother-in-law's jewelry was almost matched, and her eyes were red with envy.

"By the way, A-Niang, how are you doing at the eldest sister's house?" Everyone pricked up their ears and had long been interested in this issue.

"It's not me who blows, this trip to your mother and I have seen a lot, and that day is really comfortable." Grandma showed an expression of enjoyment, the reason why she looks younger, in addition to dressing, the standard of living is the key.

"A-Niang, tell us about it." The aunt said coquettishly, she was really curious about what kind of life was going on in this capital.

"That's okay, my mother will open your eyes. First of all, let's live, do you know how big Xiumei's house is? It's 160 square meters, it's the capital, but it's not our country.

The house is also very well decorated, the floor is paved with tiles, furniture and appliances are available, like a refrigerator, a washing machine. Oh, there's also a TV, but it's good-looking, it's said to be what closed-circuit TV, my mother doesn't understand, it seems that only big cities have it. ”

"Mother, what do you eat every day?" Auntie, they don't have an intuitive image of electrical appliances or anything, or the food is real.

"That's a lot, you also know that Xiumei's family sells vegetables, there is no shortage of vegetables at all, and every day is changing.

And Dongzi, the child, said that he should pay attention to nutrition, every day is either meat or fish, and it has not been broken at all, and his mother is now tired of panic when she sees fat. Grandma said and took a bite of pickles, you said that this person is also cheap, just a few days ago, but he misses the original bitterness haha.

Auntie, they unconsciously swallowed a few mouthfuls of saliva, this little life is too good, no wonder my father and mother are all oily.

"By the way, Xiumei has prepared a gift for you, I'll go get it." While everyone was there, Grandma wanted to send the gift.

"Dad, is what my mother said true?" Uncle is still a little skeptical, after all, his mother's character, miscellaneous grains can be blown into imperial food.

"Don't look at your mother's usual unreliability, she really didn't say anything wrong this time. Dongzi's shop has always had a good business, and it should have made some money. "Grandpa rarely defended his wife once.

Soon, Grandma came over with a large duffel bag, she neatly unzipped it, and began to dig things out.

"Boss, these are leather shoes for you, you should have a pair a long time ago, and you have face when you go out to run an errand."

……

"Lu Jie, this is a paintbrush given to you by Xiaoyu, she said that you are not to blame for the cricket, please forgive her."

"Thank you Xiaoyu, grandma, I don't blame my cousin for a long time, we are still good sisters." Lu Jie took the brush and was very happy, Xiaoyu still remembered that she loved to paint.

"Xiuhe, this is a cosmetic product for you, I don't know how to use it, you can see for yourself."

"Eh, my sister is still good to me, I know that I like this set of cosmetics for a long time." Auntie said happily.

"Alright, everything is divided, you can go back with your gifts. My mother is tired from the car and has to go to bed early. ”

Grandma is indeed tired, the gifts are good and bad, and not everyone is satisfied, she doesn't want to hear complaints and nagging anymore. Or Dongzi is right, children and grandchildren have their own children and grandchildren.
