"Grandma!" Before Kou Xi entered the house, he had already seen his grandmother playing in the vegetable garden at the courtyard wall. I walked over excitedly, with tears rolling in the corners of my eyes.

"Kou Xi?" Mrs. Kou was very excited when she saw her granddaughter, and she hunched over and trotted all the way out of the vegetable garden.

The grandfather and grandson seemed to have not seen each other for decades, and they were excited to meet again.

Kou Xi opened the door and hugged his grandmother in his arms. His mouth was flattened and he began to cry. Hearing the cry, Grandpa Kou pulled his shoes and ran out. He asked nervously, "What's wrong, what's wrong, is it that the people of the old Huo family are bullying you?"

"Can't!" Grandma Kou looked bored, glaring at her old man: "The child has been out of the house for so long for the first time, and he must be upset." ”

Grandma Kou led her granddaughter into the house, and Grandpa Kou carried the big burden that Kou Xi was carrying in the back.

"What's the matter, it's so heavy!" Putting the package on the kang, Kou Xi rubbed his eyes and smiled. Snuggled in my grandmother's arms and coquettish: "Marriage is not fun at all, I want to go home." ”

Grandma Kou patted her back dotingly: "How old a child is, I just want to play." Getting married, that's fun!"

As he spoke, he pulled Kou Xi up and looked up and down carefully. In the end, he came to a conclusion: "My eldest grandson has lost weight!"

Kou Xi said with a smile: "I used to be fat, but now I go to work." I'm getting stronger!"

Grandpa Kou nodded approvingly: "Well, I see that you are talking more quietly now." It looks like it's a lot of fun, and it seems that going to work is still very exercised!"

Grandma Kou complained a little: "I knew that I would have let you go out to work earlier, and I might be able to marry better in the future!"

"Tsk...."Grandpa Kou was dissatisfied: "You old woman, don't talk nonsense!"

Kou Xi hurriedly interrupted, stretched out his hand and turned over the package on the kang: "The first time I made money, I bought it with my first month's salary, and I honored you." ”

Grandpa Kou couldn't hide the smile lines on his happy face, and kept groping for canned food and pastries: "Oh, my eldest granddaughter is filial." Okay, come out!"

Mrs. Kou also looked proud: "You used to be naughty, and I didn't want to be said by others." They all said, 'Oh, you can't leave a child without a mother', 'Your Kou Xi is too willful, you spoil her too much'. The old lady learned so well that she pouted and rolled her eyes behind her sockets. Straightening his waist, he said angrily: "Now let those people come to see, whose grandchildren are filial to them so many good things?"

Old Man Kou put the things under the TV cabinet in one go, and looked at Kou Xi with a rare look on his shoes: "Girl, how many days have you been staying at home?"

Kou Xi said with a smile: "I took two days off, and I will stay for three days today and tomorrow." I got up early the day after tomorrow and went back to work!"

"That's pretty good!" Grandma Kou pinched Kou Xi's little face: "Oh, look at your skinny and out of shape." You wait, I'll make you something delicious. ”

Kou Xi didn't stop the old lady, she could understand how the old man expressed his heart.

The old lady was busy in the kitchen, and Kou Xi squatted in front of the stove to burn wood for her. While burning wood, I told the old lady about the interesting things at work, and never talked about the bad things I encountered at my mother-in-law's house.

Seeing her like this, Mrs. Kou couldn't help but ask, "Is your mother-in-law good to you?"

Kou Xi tilted his head and thought for a long time, and said seriously: "I usually go back to the house to wash and sleep after work, and I don't have much contact with that side. There is no contradiction!"

The old lady was anxious: Then, don't you usually work for your mother-in-law?"

Kou Xi looked innocent: "I got up late in the morning, took a bite of food and went to work." I bring a bite of food at noon, and I make it myself when I go home at night. I don't like the food they cook, I have a kitchen in my own house. I roll the noodles myself if I want to eat them, and I fry them myself if I want to stir-fry them. ”

"Didn't your mother-in-law say you?" the old lady didn't believe it, and she didn't expect that her honest granddaughter could be so independent.

"I don't know if it's me. Anyway, they didn't tell me to their faces, and I didn't go to their house. Kou Xi looked like a wayward little girl: "I earn my own money, I don't eat theirs or drink theirs." I'll cook whatever I want to eat, what's not to be satisfied with!"

This is also the reason why Kou Dewang arranged a job for his daughter in the first place, insisting that girls with a stable income will not be looked down upon by their in-laws.

Seeing that her grandmother had a little suspicion on her face, Kou Xi sneered: "Let me tell you, I still have a concubine." , I tell you, she seems to be a big fool. ”

Grandma Kou glanced at Kou Xi helplessly, and said with a smile: "Don't laugh at others all the time." Get along well with your concubine!"

"What I said was true, she was always scolded for saying the wrong thing. Kou Xi thought for a while and added: "You fought with me yesterday, so I went back in a few words." ”

Old Lady Kou was startled, turned around and asked eagerly, "Did she fight with you?"

said gently: "The two of us didn't fight, it was she who said that they wanted to split up." Huo An gave me more dowry than Huo Lu gave her, and I wanted my father-in-law to make up for the shortfall. also said that my dowry was the Huo family's thing, and when we split up, we were half of each other. Can I get used to her when you say such stupid things? At that time, I took it as a few words to go back, and my father-in-law scolded her. ”

Mrs. Kou breathed a sigh of relief, and felt that Gao Liman was surprisingly stupid: "Is there really such a child? Hey, what did you eat to grow up?" There are those little calculations in your heart, and you can really say them when you open your mouth?"

Kou Xi laughed and quacked: "That's it, that's it, that's it, so I said that she seems to be stupid, and if she's not stupid, she lacks heart!"

The old lady made Kou Xi her favorite roasted beans and stewed pork ribs. When eating, the old couple sat together and didn't eat, just stared at Kou Xi to eat. While serving her vegetables, he advised: "Eat more meat, eat more meat." ”

"This is what your father bought at the purchasing station, and said that if you don't come back, let your father send it to you. I didn't think about it, you're really back!" the old lady stared at Kou Xi lovingly, and Kou Xi held back the tears that were about to burst out of her eyes.

I took a deep breath and said with a smile: "I am really not hungry for meat, I want to eat my milk-pickled pickles." When I go back, I bring a can and a bottle, and I usually eat it at noon. ”

Mrs. Kou hurriedly got up and was busy rummaging through boxes and cabinets to find canned and bottled pickles. Kou Xi pulled the old lady back to the dinner table: "I'm not in a hurry to leave, what are you in a hurry!"

Old Man Kou nodded: "What else do you want, you tell your grandmother." Home prepares for you. ”

He was very happy: "I heard that you don't eat in the same pot with your mother-in-law now?"

Kou Xi nodded: "I don't want to eat with them, I'll cook by myself when I get home from work." ”

The old man's face fell at that time: "What do you think, how can a family live like this?"
