During the meal, Li Xiurong deliberately reconciled, kept saying some interesting things, and made everyone laugh.

"Mom, do you remember? Once you and my father went to work in the field, let me and the eldest sister look at the third sister and the fourth sister, the fourth sister was naughty, and the eldest sister didn't dare to stare at her with a wrong eye, so I had to take care of the third sister. I was also young at that time, in order to save myself trouble, I actually tied the third sister to the pillar of the sheepfold with a rope, and ran out to play by myself, and when you and my father came back, the third sister was crying and almost out of breath, give me a good beating, but I was cleaned up miserably. ”

Everyone at the table laughed, and Mrs. Li was also full of red light: "When you were a child, you had the most ghost ideas, tying a little baby in the sheepfold, you can figure it out!" ”

"I'm thinking about going out to play", Li Xiurong smiled, and put a piece of Li Xiuqin to make mixed tofu and put it in Mrs. Li's bowl, "Fortunately, the third sister is fine, otherwise how can we eat such delicious mixed tofu." ”

"Hmph" Mrs. Li snorted lightly, and ate it in the end.

After eating, Li Xiuqin's family was going back, Li Xiurong got up when she saw this, and took the things she brought: "I'll send you." ”

Xu Guangshi walked in front with his three children, leaving the sisters to speak in the back.

"The second sister knows everything...... If you are a child, I ......" Li Xiuqin was a little embarrassed, Li Xiurong worked so hard at the dinner table, she knew that it was for herself.

"If you want me to say that this thing is not bad", Li Xiurong said, "You are also a big boss, seeing that the eldest daughter is about to get married, you should have your own opinions in life, don't rely on our mother for everything." ”

Li Xiuqin had nothing to say for a while.

"I know that you are filial, and I don't want to always disobey my mother, but our mother's heart is biased to the edge of the sky, and I can't wait to give anything good to my son and grandson, look at what Xiaowei is used to......" Li Xiurong paused, quite serious, "I say this just to make you have a point in your heart, your own life, your own family take care of it, you have to be tough when you should be tough, you know?" ”

"Hmm", Li Xiuqin nodded, "I understand the second sister." ”

Li Xiurong kept sending people to the door of Xu's house, Xu Guangshi asked her to come into the house to sit, she smiled and refused: "I won't go in, this is for you." He handed him his pocket.

Xu Guangshi excused himself repeatedly: "Bring us something every year, you are a sister, we should send it to you." ”

"It's all peanuts grown by my mother-in-law's family, and they are eaten as snacks for the children", Li Xiurong smiled and stuffed the burden to him, "There are still a few old clothes from the past, they are not bad, she can't wear them, give them to the second and third girls, don't dislike them." ”

"It's all good things, how can you dislike it."

Xu Guangshi entered the house with his baggage, and Li Xiurong stopped Xu Rujuan and said a few words alone.

After a while, Xu Rujuan came back, holding ten yuan in her hand: "My second aunt had to give it to me, and she said that I should go to my mother-in-law's house to buy a few good clothes to wear." ”

Li Xiuqin took the money and chased it out, but Li Xiurong's shadow had long since disappeared.

She came back with the money, remembered something, and said to Xu Rujiao, who was looking through the burden given by her second aunt with Xu Ruyan: "Then give the money to Mom." ”

Xu Rujiao pulled out a large bag of peanuts from her baggage and responded casually: "What money?" ”

"It's twenty-five dollars from your grandmother." Li Xiuqin said that although she blamed her daughter, she was still happy to get the money back.

Who knew that Xu Rujiao said directly: "Don't give it." ”

"What?" Li Xiuqin was stunned, "You want to take it yourself?" What do you want to do with all that money? ”

"What if you are asked to go back by your grandmother again?" Xu Rujiao took it for granted, "I'll take it, and the eldest sister's family affairs won't be returned to the Zhang family." ”

"Dead girl, what are you talking about?!" Li Xiuqin was completely angry, the new "hatred" and the old "hatred" together, she picked up the broom pimple on the kang with her hand, and was about to beat Xu Rujiao: "I haven't beaten you for too long, is your skin itchy?" ”

Where would Xu Rujiao wait obediently, and jumped out all at once, hiding while talking back: "What's wrong with me, am I not right?" You just can't help the persecution of your grandmother, and the eldest sister's family affairs, you have to retreat! ”

"Stop! See if I don't clean you up! Li Xiuqin waved a broom and chased after her.

"What are you doing in the New Year's Xiuqin......" Xu Guangshi stopped in various ways.

"Mom, don't fight, Sanya run!" Xu Rujuan also protects her little sister.

Xu Rujiao watched the excitement there.

On the evening of the second day of the Lunar New Year, the Xu family chickens and dogs jumped, and it was very lively.

Li Xiuqin chased until she was exhausted, and she didn't touch a corner of the little girl's clothes, but the broom bump had been taken away by Xu Guangshi, he grabbed Xu Rujiao, slapped her on the arm twice, and acted as a peacemaker: "Okay, I'll beat her for you, don't run away, give the money to your mother." ”

Those two slaps are not painful or itchy, it is not as heavy as the usual dust on her, Xu Rujiao is really tired of running, so she leaned on his father and snorted: "No, you can't give it." ”

"Sanya, you ......"

"Dad, I'm serious", Xu Rujiao looked at her father very seriously, "The eldest sister can't marry Zhang Mingming, and the money must be returned." ”

Xu Guangshi suddenly realized that his youngest daughter was really serious: "But the Zhang family ......"

"I'll prove it to you," Xu Rujiao said firmly.

In the end, the money was not given to Li Xiuqin, and in the end, Xu Guangshi took it, so this matter was settled.

Among the things Li Xiurong brought, in addition to peanuts, there are two pants, a small red cotton jacket, and a plaid dress worn in summer.

Xu Ruyan fell in love with the dress at a glance, but she was bigger than Xu Rujiao, so she really couldn't wear it.

"Mom, why don't you change it for me?"

There is no such cloth at home, and Li Xiuqin had a fire just now, and she is not good at the moment, and her tone is impulsive: "What to change, wear it for your sister." ”

Xu Ruyan pouted, she couldn't wear the red cotton jacket, only one of the pants could barely be worn, and three of the four clothes belonged to Xu Rujiao, Xu Ruyan was unhappy in her heart: "Then you fry peanuts for me to eat!" ”

Most of the peanuts brought by Li Xiurong had to be five or six catties, and they had to be brought from afar. Li Xiuqin wanted to say a few words about her, but thinking of the current conditions at home, she stood up and planned to fry peanuts.

"Don't eat peanuts." Who knew that Xu Rujiao said, "Keep it all, I'm useful." ”

Xu Ruyan exploded: "What? It's not enough to get three clothes, and you still want to occupy peanuts?! ”

Xu Rujiao smiled calmly: "You listen to me, I promise to let you wear a new dress in a few days, what's the matter?" ”
