Second Brother Ye didn't object, but he still gave his thoughts in sign language.

"Hmm." The eldest sister nodded, thought for a moment, and stopped talking a little. Seeing this, Second Brother Ye was puzzled: "If you have something to say, you can say it, I'll listen to it." He used sign language as he pondered what his daughter-in-law was going to say.

The eldest sister bit her lip and looked straight at Second Brother Ye: "Xiao Xia has changed a lot, I almost thought I recognized the wrong person today, and ...... Where do you think she got all that fine grains and delicious pastries and candies? ”

Hearing her words, Second Brother Ye was stunned, and then made sign language: "Don't think too much, my sister is very good now, as for the things she gave us, they should have been bought by Xiangbei." ”

"I just don't think we owe Xiao Xia and the fourth brother too much."

Second Brother Ye didn't respond immediately, and after a long time, he pursed his lips and made sign language...... Go to sleep. The corners of the eldest sister's mouth moved, and she wanted to say something more, but when she saw that he had already looked away and went to blow out the kerosene lamp, she had to give up.

The moonlight is as clean as water, and the veins flow all over the ground.

Lying on the kang, Second Brother Ye didn't close his eyes and fell asleep for a long time.

He wanted to forget that night when he rushed to the commune health center and heard what the doctor had said to him, but the more he tried to forget, the more he remembered it clearly......

The corners of his eyes gradually moistened, the second brother Ye's eyes swelled with pain, in the early years, his father left a note for the family, and left his mother, he and his eldest brother, at that time his mother was pregnant with his sister, the eldest brother was ten years old, he was seven years old, so he was ruthlessly thrown by his father at home in Beijing, saying that there was no home from the country, saying that he could not be weak anymore, saying that he wanted to join the revolutionary team and pick up a gun to go to the battlefield.

The mother took the note, covered her mouth and cried silently, but she didn't complain about her father, and when she cried enough, she pulled the two brothers alone, and gritted her teeth and gave birth to her sister without her husband.

From the day his father left, the eldest brother seemed to have grown up several years in an instant, but no one expected that three years later, the eldest brother would follow his father's example and leave a note to his mother, saying that he was going to find his father back.

The successive blows caused the mother's body to be severely damaged.

But Rao is like this, she gritted her teeth and held on.

self-destructing and delicate, holding him, carrying his young sister on his back, looking for his eldest brother all the way from Beijing......

After the victory of the Anti-Japanese War and the liberation of the whole country, he didn't hear his mother mention his father and eldest brother again, but he knew that his mother didn't forget to think about those two people for a day.

And he, after following his mother to find his eldest brother to no avail, forcibly forgot his father and brother who left home.

If it weren't for them leaving one by one, why would my mother have suffered so much, and died so early? Exhausted, depressed and sick......

Tears rolled down the corners of his eyes, and Second Brother Ye's hands at his side clenched into fists.

Dumb and frail, so that he can't protect his mother and sister like a normal person, who knows this heartache? The mother used her weak shoulders to support a home for them, supported him and his sister to study, gave them everything she could, and arranged the future for their brothers and sisters before they died.

Marry, marry a daughter.

He disagreed, he didn't agree to exchange his sister with the Lu family in Shuanghuai Village, he didn't want a daughter-in-law, he could support his sister to go to college...... When my mother heard his words, she smiled with relief and cried silently.

"Xiaoli, the family has no savings, even if you can treat people, how much money can you make in this village?"

"What's more, your body and bones are weak by nature, can the rations you get from working in the field support you and Xia Xia?"

"You are not young, you must have someone around to take care of you, otherwise, how can my mother close her eyes?"

"Xia Xia is such a personality, if she doesn't arrange her family affairs, I'm afraid she will be bullied at her in-law's house in the future!"
