On January 22, the day of the New Year, Xu's mother finally looked forward to her eldest son's family.

I haven't seen her for a year, and the eldest father and daughter have gained weight, which makes her feel very gratified, only the eldest daughter-in-law Tan Aifang is slightly thinner, which may be related to the death of her mother.

"Good boy, come over and show grandma."

Xu Jingyi let go of the suitcase and immediately stepped forward to hug her grandmother: "Grandma, I miss you!" ”

"Grandma misses you too, are you hungry, grandma steamed dumplings."

"I wasn't hungry, but when I heard the dumplings, I was hungry, and the dumplings made by my grandmother were the best."

Xu Jingyi would only say these witty words in front of her grandmother.

Ma Lingling echoed: "Cousin, grandma specially wrapped your favorite fish dumplings, you have to taste them later." ”

"Hmm!" Xu Jingyi couldn't help but swallow her saliva.

Xu Bin looked around and wondered, "Mom, what about the rest of the family?" ”

Especially the three nephews, I haven't seen them for more than half a year, and it's weird.

"The Children's Bureau conducted a health survey, Nana took the children to the hospital, and your aunt's Xiaojie also went over to help." Xu Ma explained.

"Xiaojie didn't go back to her hometown?"

"This kid has to go to work tomorrow, and he won't go back to Yiling this year."

Xu Jingyi sighed: "I haven't seen Xiaojie for a long time, and I don't know what she looks like now?" ”

"I've grown into a big girl." Mother Xu smiled, "Your cousin is very hard-working, hard-working, and her colleagues like her very much." ”

Tan Aifang sighed:

"It's hard for this kid to come out to work at such a young age."

"Auntie, Xiaojie is doing chores in the office like me, it's not hot or cold, it's not hard at all, I see that she is very happy."

"It's better for you two little girls!"

Xu Bin couldn't help but sigh when he heard this.

"My uncle also entered the factory at the age of seventeen or eighteen, and at the beginning he did the most tiring and dirtiest work, and he was scolded by the masters, and he was scolded very badly. In the end, it's better to have your own company! ”

"Okay, okay, let's not talk about Xiaojie, I've boiled all the washing water, you guys hurry up and wipe your face, the dumplings are about to boil."

Mother Xu urged.

……

Half an hour later, Yang Lina came back with the children, today is the penultimate day of the physical examination, and there are indeed a lot fewer people in the hospital.

Dabao saw the uncle and immediately pounced.

"Uncle, did you come to see Dabao?"

Xu Bin grabbed the eldest nephew and joked with a smile: "Yes, let the uncle see, good guy, he has gained weight again, and his little face has become round." ”

"Uncle, you've gotten fat too."

Dabao's eyes widened, the little guy usually hates others saying that he is fat, and if someone in the class doesn't open his eyes, his little fist is not a vegetarian.

"Ahem... This is called Zhuang, and Uncle can knock down ten people with one punch. Xu Bin boasted.

"Wow, it turns out that Uncle is so powerful!" Dabao patted his little chest, "Dabao is also very powerful, and the children in the kindergarten can't beat me." ”

"Fighting is not a good boy......"

Xu Bin took the opportunity to educate.

"Dad said, this means that no one will offend me, I will not offend anyone, and if someone offends me, he will do him."

Dabao waved his small fist and almost touched his uncle's chin.

Yang Lina came over and took her eldest son off his uncle's lap: "Don't make trouble, grandma made dumplings, you should hurry over, if you don't go, you will be eaten up by your second sister." ”

Dabao was anxious when he heard this, and ran to the kitchen with his little short legs, followed by Erbao and Xiaobao, as long as the second sister was mentioned, the three brothers were more active than anyone else.

Di Jie said hello and followed.

Tan Aifang said with envy: "As soon as the children came back, the house was much more lively. ”

"Alas, it's lively, it's too lively, it's too lively, every day is a chicken, a dog, and I don't know when I'll be really sensible."

Yang Lina shook her head helplessly.

"It would be nice to be bigger." Tan Aifang comforted.

Yang Lina then looked at her eldest niece on the side:

"Jingyi, when does your internship start?"

"I'm going to report on the Lantern Festival, but before that, I have to go back to school first, and then come back."

"You won't leave this time, will you?"

Tan Aifang waved her hand: "Don't go, we have already rented out the house in our hometown, and there is no place to live when we go back, so we will settle down here in the future." ”

Because of the housing reform policy, today's houses can only be sold to the Housing Bureau, and the price is fixed, at most more than 200,000 yuan, so it is better to rent it out directly.

The annual rent is 40,000 yuan!

"There are a lot of empty rooms in the house, why don't you just stay with me?"

Yang Lina said politely casually.

"No need, it's too far away from the daily newspaper office, we have already discussed it, and we plan to rent a house near the daily newspaper office, so that Jingyi can commute to work more conveniently."

Xu Bin hurriedly shook his head, is it really polite or fake polite?

He could tell it at a glance.

Besides, he and the third child are both people who drag their families, and they can still talk about living for dozens of days, what is it like to live together for a long time, and his skin is not thick to this extent.

At this time, Xu Ma happened to come over.

"It's okay to go out and rent a house, but I have to come back for dinner on the weekend, Lingling and Xiaojie are here, and the family is more lively."

"Mom, it's all up to you." Tan Aifang agreed.

Mother Xu showed a smile: "Don't go out before the year, just live at home, and I will accompany you to find a house after the year, try to find a bigger house." ”

"It's best to be finely decorated, save time and effort, and you can move in with your bag." Yang Lina echoed.

"I'm afraid the rent for fine decoration is not cheap, right?"

Tan Aifang is also used to saving, and she is a little distressed.

"It's okay, Mom will subsidize you with 10,000 yuan of rent every month, you can live in peace!"

Is there a parent in the world who doesn't love their children?

In the past, the three families were the most financially difficult, and the old couple received the most subsidies, and Xu's mother lived directly in the past, eager to dig out her heart and lungs;

Immediately afterwards, the third child developed, and in comparison, the second family became the most difficult one, so the old couple quickly changed the subsidy object;

Now, the second family has also risen, and the eldest family is the worst, and it is logical to subsidize their family next, and no one can say whether it is or not.

Xu Bin, as the eldest son, was a little unbearable on his face:

"Mom, our family has money, so you should keep your money for the elderly!"

Mother Xu patted her eldest son's arm:

"If you take it, you can take it, it's such a big person, and the temper is still so strong.

Your father and I don't need to save for retirement, if the three of you are not filial, we will simply leave the house and not affect you. ”

Tan Aifang glared at her husband: "How did you talk to your mother?" If you can't speak, don't open your mouth. ”

This was obviously said to Xu's mother.

"Grandma, my dad is confused."

Yang Lina followed and comforted: "Mom, if Dongzi is not filial to your second elder, I will directly take the children to divorce him, and let Dabao and them provide for you." ”

"Okay, don't persuade me, Mom is joking, where is there a temple now, your father and I can't find a place to become a monk."

Mother Xu waved her hand.
