In the morning, it is only the breakfast that the mother and Yunfang eat at home, there is a big pot of rice made by the mother There is still a lot left, you can eat it after a little heat, and the dishes at home are also ready-made, there are already pickled radish strips, and newly fried lotus root tongs, as well as the freshly made braised 'meat' and pig's head 'meat', each dish was taken a little, and the four of them ate a full belly.

While burping, Dashan pointed to the lotus root clip in front of him and exclaimed, "Daddy really didn't lie to me, this thing is indeed better than braised 'meat'." It's just a pity that there are too little, and I haven't eaten enough. ”

"Yes, let's blow these up today, let Aunt Guizhi take some of them, and set them aside for tomorrow's banquet, but there won't be much left." The mother looked at Dashan's annoyed look, counted them one by one, and said with a smile.

"Alas, I knew that this lotus root could still be eaten like this, I bought more lotus root in the market that day, people in our area only know that this lotus root can be fried and eaten, and the taste is not very delicious, people don't recognize this dish, and the Gegou market is very cheap." Remembering the situation in the bazaar, Dashan clenched his fists and said with annoyance.

"How can there be regrets in this world 'medicine'," the mother said with a smile while cleaning up the dishes and chopsticks on the dining table, "It's better to wait honestly for a few days to gather and then buy some lotus root back, while there is fresh 'meat' at home, you can fry it again before the New Year." ”

"Okay, we'll discuss it in a few days," Dad stood up, "Dashan and I will go to the back mountain to chop some firewood and come back, we have to prepare more for tomorrow, prepare properly, don't make any mistakes in these little things." ”

"Okay," Dashan didn't just recognize the rice bucket for eating, and after listening to his father's instructions, he also agreed to stand up, and walked out with a curtain of the 'door'.

Dad and Dashan came out of the house one after another, carried the axe out of the yard, and went up the back mountain to cut wood.

Dad and Dashan went home for a meal and went out in a hurry, my mother hurriedly gestured to the dining table, washed the dishes and chopsticks, and just straightened up, I heard a dull sound of my big 'door' and 'creak', as if someone was slowly pushing it open.

"Did you forget what you bring? Just went out and came back. The mother chuckled and shook her head, not caring.

However, there was a child's voice in the yard, not Daddy or Dashan.

"Sister Fang'er, Sister Hua'er, Second Aunt Lan, are you at home? Your family has come to relatives, and I will bring you the family. ”

It's the sound of a small pillar.

The mother's expression turned, she thought about it, shook her head, and muttered softly, "Relatives, relatives who don't even know our family's 'door', where are the distant relatives here?" ”

Although the mother was suspicious, it was still overjoyed to have relatives at this moment, she deliberately carried the dust on her body, opened the big 'door' of the inner room, and greeted her with a smile, "At home, at home, hurry up and come to the house." ”

"Big sister, you're Fang'er's mother, right?"

Following the mother's voice, a tidying up 'woman' came out from behind the little pillar, and she asked with a smile on her face and a sure tone.

It's the voice of Aunt Ju!

Yun Fang, who hadn't had time to leave the house 'door', was happy, and was about to rush out. However, she had just lifted one foot and hesitated to put it down.

Yun Fang has a special emotion for Aunt Ju, since she appeared in this world with this ugly face, she is the first stranger who is kind to her in addition to her relatives - after knowing that she is an ugly girl, and her mother also has the idea of letting her recognize Aunt Ju as her godmother.

Although through the 'communication' with Aunt Guizhi in the morning, Yun Fang also learned that there are indeed strangers who don't mind her face, but is Aunt Ju also such a person? After all, she just knew that she was the ugly girl of the Lan family, and she hadn't seen her face with her own eyes. In case she sees herself, she has a problem in her heart, how should she deal with herself? How do you get along with her?

Yun Fang hesitated in the house, a little scared of homesickness.

The mother's mind outside also quickly turned, and the 'woman' who came to the 'door' looked a few years older than herself, cleaned up neatly, and looked very kind. However, she searched all the relatives she could remember, and there was no such number one person.

However, as soon as the other party opened his mouth, he knew that he was Fang'er's mother, and he didn't hesitate at all, what kind of relative was it?

'Fang'er her mother', as soon as I heard this title, I found the 'door' along Fang'er's relationship, my mother's eyes lit up, and she guessed the identity of the person in front of her.

hurriedly greeted him affectionately, and asked tentatively, "Alas, you are Sister Ju of Li Zigou, right?" Come in, come in. ”

"Big sister, it's me, it's me!" Aunt Ju's voice raised a point again, and she admitted her identity loudly with joy.

The identities of both parties have been determined, the smile on the mother's face is even more cordial, she stepped forward and grabbed Aunt Ju's arm, "Old sister, you have come so far and wide, haven't you eaten yet?" We just ate lunch at noon, the rice in the pot is still hot, his father asked Wang Yidao to make braised 'meat' in the morning, and now it is still hot, come, come, come into the house and eat some. ”

"I've eaten, I've eaten," Aunt Ju took her mother's hand with her backhand, but she didn't mean to take a step under her feet, and said with a smile in her mouth, "Our family had an early lunch, and we came by a big car, so I didn't have to spend any effort." When I entered your Songpotun, I met this sensible child again, and brought us over directly, without any effort. ”

As she spoke, Aunt Ju raised her hand appreciatively and 'touched' the head of the little pillar, and said with a smile, "What a good boy, his mouth is neat, and he speaks clearly." Another day, I will go back to Lizigou with my aunt to play. ”

Xiao Zhuzi listened to Aunt Ju's praise, cracked his mouth and was silently happy, and 'exposed' the big 'incisor' tooth that was missing.

Aunt Ju praised the little pillar, and the mother just weighed Aunt Ju's words in her heart.

After thinking about it for a while, the mother's eyes were on one side, and she looked towards the 'door', but found that the 'door' was empty, and there was no car and horse in the mouth of Aunt Ju, so she was suspicious, and she still said affectionately, "Old sister, you really have the ability, you can still drive the car, don't leave it outside, drive the car in, and let the animals rest." ”

"Hehe, big sister, I don't have the ability to drive a car, the livestock bully the 'female' people, and they will kick as soon as they enter." Aunt Ju said self-deprecatingly, raised her hand and pointed to the outside of the Lan family's big 'door', and continued to explain, "It was my old son who came by car, and that Han boy was a little recognizable, so he was embarrassed to come in." ”

Aunt Ju said humbly about her son, but the smile on her face was not so meaning at all, I am afraid that she is very satisfied with this son in her heart.

Mother is also distressed about her son's 'daughter', she can naturally see Aunt Ju's thoughts, she turned around and walked out, while saying, "Half of the children are like this, let's just say that our family is a big mountain, looking at the sky is not afraid of the earth, but let him go out of the 'door' to someone he doesn't know, it is also a pestle." Let your child come in, and when you get here, it's like your own home, don't be inhibited. ”

As she spoke, my mother had already walked outside the big 'gate', and sure enough, she saw a young man with his head slightly bowed, standing not far in front of his yard with the reins of his horse.

Before the mother could speak, Aunt Ju raised her voice and greeted, "Yonglian, this is your second Aunt Lan's house, come in quickly." ”

It's not the first time I've heard of the name Yongzhuo, and the last time Xiaoshi went to Lizigou to return the lantern, she also mentioned this name, saying that she was a 'very' honest young man.

The mother couldn't help but look up and down at this young man named Yonglian, although he hung his head slightly and couldn't see his face clearly, but the hand holding the reins was strong and powerful, and his body was on par with the mountain, and he had a lot of strength at a glance.

Looking at the clothes he was wearing, although they were not as new as those who went out of the house like those very wealthy people, the half-old clothes were neatly packed up by his mother, and he stood there so shyly, which really gave people an honest and honest appearance, no wonder his mother called him 'Han boy'.

After just a glance, my mother secretly nodded in her heart, this child is good, what a good child.

The mother praised the children in her heart, and her eyes swept towards the carriage beside him, and under a sweep, the mother's eyes immediately lit up, and she saw that there was a small foal next to the carriage, about four or five months in size, and she could work with a little tame in the spring.

They brought such a foal, could it be,......

There were other thoughts in her heart, and her mother's smile was more kind, she rubbed her hands, and said embarrassedly to Aunt Ju, "Alas, I don't know that the old sister is here today, and his father is still in the back mountain, this is ,......"

"Second aunt, don't worry, I know where the second uncle and Brother Dashan are? I'll send them a letter, and I'll say that you've got relatives from your family. Before the mother's words were finished, the small pillar on the side interrupted the mother's words with a very right eye, and volunteered to shout out.

As he spoke, Xiaozhu stuffed the small porcelain bowl he had been carrying in his hand into his mother's hand, and ran towards the direction of the back mountain.

The mother subconsciously took the bowl and raised her voice to the back of the little pillar and asked, "Hey, what a good boy, you help the second aunt run and tell them that Aunt Ju from Li Zigou is coming to the house, and let them come back quickly." ”

Aunt Ju listened to her mother's words, and hurriedly said, "Big sister, look at what you said, let them and the two of them go together, the old sister knows that your family will do big things tomorrow, and we just rushed over to help, but we can't help, the more you help, the more you help." ”

"There's nothing to do, it's time to prepare," the smile on the mother's face was real and kind, "The old sister and Yonglian can come, they have already done us a great favor." ”
