Chapter 92: Back to My Mother's Home
It's also a little sad to say, I don't know how Lao Liutou and the Dong family should feel when they hear their children call other people's mothers so intimately.
But all this is no wonder of others, it's still a matter of fate, Liu Man'er should be a member of the Ye family.
Of course, she is also a person who does not forget her roots, she is developed, and it is normal to help her mother's family, I believe that Ye Yuan and the Fang family will not have any objections, Ye Yuan is spoiling Liu Man'er now, these little things, he will not care, the Fang family is a good person and reasonable, Liu Man'er is really glad that she can be reborn in such a family.
The matter was discussed in this way, on this day, Liu Man'er and Ye Yuan set off early in the morning with gifts, and it was not until noon that they arrived at Shiligou of Liu Man'er's mother's house.
Seeing his daughter and son-in-law come back, Lao Liutou and the Dong family were both very happy, and now Liu Man'er is a rare guest for the old Liu family, and the villagers in this small village know about it, and they all came over to see it.
It's rare for people from outside the mountain to come over in this mountain, everyone is to take a look at Liu Man'er and Ye Yuan, which is also a strange sight, and the other is to ask Liu Man'er and Ye Yuan, how is their daughter who married outside the mountain.
The Dong family was busy entertaining guests, and many women pulled Liu Man'er to inquire, but Liu Man'er really didn't communicate with the women in the village, she just nodded and said, "It's all right." ”
It should be okay, after all, this year is a good year, and there is no one in the village who is hungry and has no food.
There are very few tall and masculine men like Ye Yuan in this village, everyone stares at Ye Yuan, and straightly says that this man has spirit, the old Liutou family has good luck, and his daughter married such a good person, etc.
In fact, they are indeed envious of the old willow, after all, it is basically rare for their daughter to return to her parents' house if she sells it, and the daughters who marry are all spilled water, not to mention, the daughters who are sold because of hunger?
But this old willow's stupid daughter has returned to her parents' house for the second time this year, which shows that her husband's family values her, and asked her to go back to her parents' house to see.
I heard that I used to be a soldier, but I heard that the men who were soldiers were short-tempered, and I don't know if it was true.
There was a lot of discussion about Ye Yuan and Liu Man'er in their hearts, but they didn't dare to stare at Ye Yuan more, for fear that Ye Yuan would beat someone if he didn't agree.
Old Liu Tou was actually a little stunned when he saw this Ye Yuan, he was afraid that these villagers would be angry when they talked about this, so he asked everyone to go home and not crowd at their door.
When the villagers heard that the old willow was driving away, they also dispersed, and some of the women who had sat in the house also stood up and said goodbye to leave.
Dong got up one by one and sent them away, asking them to come and sit next time, and then they were busy filling up the charcoal basin with charcoal and putting it in front of Ye Yuan and Liu Man'er.
While gently fanning the charcoal basin with a fan to make the fire bigger, he said: "The wind is strong in this mountain, and the fire in this charcoal basin should be stronger to be warmer." ”
Seeing that the fire was almost over, Dong asked Liu Man'er's sister Cao'er to bring a bed of felt for the fire, and asked Liu Man'er and Ye Yuan to cover their hands.
Liu Man'er reached out and touched her head, and said with a smile: "Don't be afraid, my sister came this time to pick you up and go to my sister's house to play." ”
Cao'er's eyes lit up, she lowered her head, and did not speak.
Liu Man'er asked, "How old are you this year?" ”
"Nine years old." Cao'er replied in a low voice.
"Nine years old is so thin." Liu Man'er grabbed her little hand on the roasting felt, and when she saw that her hand was cold, she held it in the palm of her hand and said, "Wait until you go to my sister's house, my sister will let you eat delicious food every day and make you fatter." ”
"Here, have a bowl of hot soup." Dong brought two bowls of hot sugar water eggs as usual, and this time Liu Man'er was not polite, so she drank it, she was indeed a little hungry and a little cold.
But she didn't eat the eggs, left them in the bowl and handed them to the little sister Cao'er, "Come, Cao'er, give it to you." ”
Liu Man'er said that she also wanted to scoop the eggs in Ye Yuan's bowl, "I'll eat them all for you." ”
Although Cao'er wanted to eat, she also knew how to be hospitable, swallowed her saliva, and said, "Sister, you can eat." ”
"My sister and your brother-in-law don't like eggs." Liu Man'er picked up the spoon, scooped the egg and fed her, and said, "My sister has seventy or eighty chickens, and there are fifty or sixty hens, we are all tired of eating, and when you pass, it doesn't matter how many you want to eat." ”
The old willow head was busy killing chickens outside, and after he got it done, he also came to sit with Ye Yuan, he seemed to be a little afraid of Ye Yuan, and he was sitting far away from him, only Liu Man'er, who sat next to Ye Yuan affectionately.
"Cao'er, go and bring your sister's back basket."
After Cao'er brought Liu Man'er's back basket, Liu Man'er began to take out the contents of her back basket and displayed them one by one in front of the old Liu Tou and Dong's:
"Well, this is the sugar for you, and there's cloth here, and you can use it to make clothes, and here's eggs, and some leather, and it's good for you to make shoes."
"Come on, what are you doing with so many things!" While burning the fire in the stove, Dong said angrily: "This thing is not cheap, you spend so much money, it is wasted." ”
Liu Man'er listened and said: "The eggs are our own, and the leather is all brought by Ye Yuan, although the sugar and cloth are bought, it doesn't cost much." ”
After taking out all the things, Liu Man'er said, "Dad, you put them all away." ”
"Well, you better take it back." The old willow head frowned and said.
"This is all prepared by my mother-in-law, if we bring it back, she will definitely scold us." Liu Man'er pulled the Fang clan out as a shield.
"It's so nice to be a family." The old willow head nodded with the Dong family again and again.
In fact, they were afraid that the Fang Clan and Ye Yuan would have an opinion, but they didn't expect that this thing was actually prepared by the Fang Clan.
"By the way, where is the eldest brother and second brother going?" Liu Man'er asked again.
"They're burning charcoal in the back mountains." The old willow replied, "Then you will bring back some charcoal." ”
"Okay." Liu Man'er responded, "Although we have charcoal in our house, I am afraid of the cold, and I use a lot of charcoal. ”
"If you're afraid of the cold, take more, anyway, your eldest brother and second brother burn a lot of charcoal, and they won't be able to sell it for a while." Dong said: "When the time comes, let each of you pick up a burden and go back." ”
"Okay, when the time comes, I'll ask Ye Yuan to give money to the two brothers."
Liu Man'er knew that they burned charcoal to sell it for money, and there was no place to make money in the mountains in winter, so every household made some money by burning charcoal.
Dong listened and said, "It's all about what the family wants." ”
"Ye Yuan, do you want to give money for taking charcoal from my house?" Liu Man'er deliberately raised her head and asked.
"Yes." Ye Yuan held Liu Man'er's hand under the felt cloth and said, "Your hands are always so cold, I should have bought you some good charcoal a long time ago." ”
"Ye Yuan, you're so good."
Liu Man'er showed her affection in front of her father, so that the old Liu Tou and the Dong family finally put their hearts at ease, although this Ye Yuan looked a little indifferent and didn't like to talk, but he was still good to his daughter.
At noon, I had a light meal at Liu's house, and Liu Man'er said: "Our family has built a new house and is going to go to the fire, we came this time to specially invite my father, mother, brother, second brother and little sister and others to go to my house to play." ”
Dong was a little moved when she heard this, she also wanted to go to her daughter's house to sit and see, after all, she had never been there, but she felt that it was not good to take so many people to go, and she was afraid that Ye Yuan would be unhappy, so she glanced at Ye Yuan, and saw that he still had a flat expression, so she said with a smile:
"Your two brothers are burning charcoal, so you don't have to go, let's take the grass and take a look, and go to see Fusheng by the way."
Liu Man'er looked at her smile, how could she feel that it was a little flattering, so she looked at Ye Yuan and said, "Ye Yuan, you say something." ”
Ye Yuan said: "Father-in-law and mother-in-law don't have to worry, let's go together." ”
Hearing Ye Yuan speak, the Dong family and the old willow glanced at each other, and then a relieved smile appeared on their faces, "Just the three of us, the two of them shouldn't be able to come back today." ”
Who knew that as soon as her words fell, Liu Man'er's two brothers came in through the door.
Seeing Ye Yuan and Liu Man'er, they were also stunned, and said with some surprise: "Man'er? ”
"Big brother, second brother." Liu Man'er smiled at them.
The two teenagers were both wearing cyan jackets, just like the old willows, they were relatively thin, but they were quite tall, and their faces were a little childish, but there was some maturity that did not match their age.
"Man'er, it's really you." The two teenagers were a little surprised, walked over, and said, "It's become pretty." ”
"Hee-hee." Liu Man'er smiled happily, in her memory, these two brothers were still very good to her, although she was a fool, but the two brothers were also very good to her, every time they took out the eggs, they would share one with him.
In my memory, when the old willow head was going to take Liu Man'er and Liu Fusheng to the outside of the mountain, the two of them cried.
"Come, let me introduce you, this is my Xianggong Ye Yuan." Liu Man'er pointed to Ye Yuan and introduced them to them, and then said to Ye Yuan, "This is my eldest brother Liu Guisheng, second brother Liu Yunsheng." ”
"Hello two brothers." Although Ye Yuan is a little older than the two of them, who called Liu Man'er their sister, so even the seniority of Ye Yuan is low.
However, when these two saw a tall and tall person like Ye Yuan greeting them, they were also a little apprehensive for a while, so they said, "You're welcome, brother-in-law is good." ”
They hadn't seen Liu Man'er for two years, and Liu Man'er had indeed changed a lot better than before, growing a lot taller, whiter, and more importantly, becoming smarter, and looking completely different from before.
