Gu Yi was woken up by a call, and hurriedly put on his cloth shoes and went out.

Half an hour later, he came back with a dark face.

"My sister-in-law guessed correctly, she really went to live at the guest house. I asked her what she was doing in the middle of the night without saying goodbye, and she said she had something urgent and had to go out. She also said that she would stay in Yucheng in the future and did not plan to return to the capital. ”

"Hell-!" Li Ying rolled her eyes angrily: "She hasn't been with anyone else, so she will stay?!" Her parents don't know yet! ”

Gu Yi hehe, hehe sneered.

"I say the same thing, let her go back with you first, and let her parents agree before coming back. Guess what she said? The eight characters all started with a skim, and said that she would explain it to her parents. If you want to go back, go back yourself, and she'll stay anyway. ”

Li Ying said angrily: "Okay! Then I won't leave her alone! ”

Gu Yi said angrily: "I told you a long time ago that the Qin family is not a good thing, and the eldest brother also asked you not to get too close to them." It's good for you, people can fool you away with a few words! You brought someone's daughter to Yucheng, but you didn't bring it back - that alone can make a big deal with you! ”

Li Ying whispered: "How could I have thought it would become like this...... Tian Tian is usually so well-behaved, why did she suddenly become the same. ”

"Knowing people, knowing faces, but not hearts." Gu Yi said in a deep voice: "We don't know what her parents are, especially her father." How they treated our family back then, after many years, I still remember. You can forget things as soon as you turn around, what else can I say! Like her father, she looks honest on the face, but her heart is very insidious. ”

Li Ying glared at him and whispered: "She's just pursuing an object, why do you bury her like this?" ”

"Huh!" Gu Yi poked at the truth: "She held the name of her eldest brother to hook up in the factory, and she also used the reputation of A Xuan and Miao to cover her - it is clearly ill-intentioned!" Do you think you still have to take care of her? ”

Li Ying was embarrassed and didn't dare to say anything more.

"Alright, alright." Chen Xingling yawned and said, "It's late at night, let's go back to our room and sleep." Tomorrow morning, Ah Yi, you will go to work as usual, and I will take my mother to the post office to make a phone call and make it clear to her parents in advance. ”

They went back to their rooms and slept.

The next morning, Chen Xingling sent Xiaohuzi to kindergarten.

The little guy looked depressed, and reluctantly expressed his reluctance to go.

"Mom, aren't we going to my grandparents' house? I don't want to go to kindergarten, I'm going to the beach to play. ”

Chen Xingling explained: "I will take my grandmother out in the morning and go to my grandparents' house in the afternoon. The last time I made an appointment with my uncle was to pick up in the afternoon. I'll pick you up at noon and take you home for dinner, and then I'll wait for my uncle to pick us up. ”

There was originally a class on Saturday morning, but because of the mock exam, the morning class was cancelled, and this week I was able to have two days off in a row.

Xiaohuzi disliked the kindergarten very much, but because her mother really didn't have time to take herself, she had to reluctantly agree.

Chen Xingling turned around and went home, called Li Ying to get up and eat, and then drove her out in a hurry.

Li Ying sat on the back seat of the bicycle, and saw Chen Xingling skillfully pedaling the bicycle and speeding on the side of the street, secretly feeling a little incredulous.

"you, when did you learn to ride a bike? What Archie taught you? ”

Chen Xingling replied: "When I was a child, my family bought a bicycle, and my brothers taught me. ”

Forehead?!!

There were very few families who could afford a bicycle more than a decade ago, so her family's conditions should not be bad.

Li Ying was embarrassed to ask any more, and sat in the back of the car.

When she arrived at the post office, Li Ying called the neighborhood committee. The other party said to call again in an hour, because it may not be possible to find someone.

Li Ying had no choice but to wait obediently.

Outside, the sun was high and the heat was rolling.

Chen Xingling looked at the newspaper quietly, but he didn't feel too hot.

Li Ying is not used to the hot and humid weather in the south, and her weight is too large, so she sweats and wipes the sweat and fans the wind, and she is upset.

Chen Xingling took out an iron kettle from his bag and handed it to her, "Mom, drink some winter melon water." ”

Li Ying hurriedly took it and drank it with a grunt.

The water is cool and delicious in the mouth, with the sweet taste of winter melon, and the body is suddenly cooler after drinking the cool winter melon water, comfortable and thirst-quenching!

"the tiger, this is ...... What kind of water is it made of? ”

Chen Xingling continued to read the newspaper and replied: "The winter melon is boiled slowly with rock sugar, and it has to be chilled in the pool." ”

This is a winter melon drink she took out of the refrigerator in the supermarket space, which can relieve the heat and clear the fire, which is very suitable for drinking during the change of season.

She packed some for Xiaohuzi and took some out to prevent the old woman from suffering from heat stroke when she couldn't stand the heat outside.

Li Ying held the kettle and drank it slowly, unconsciously remembering the years when Chen Xingling was in his hometown.

In those years, there was no dust at all in the front yard or the backyard. There was hot water in the kitchen at all times, and three meals a day were hot.

The dogs in the front yard, the chickens and pigs in the backyard are clean every day, fat and strong, which is like now that pigs can't be raised, roosters and hens are dirty and sick, and even the dogs in the front yard have lost a lot of weight.

In the past, clothes were washed every day, whether it was slurry washing or drying, or ironing, Chen Xingling dried them, unlike now when she and her two daughters wash together for a few days, Ah Xuan always dislikes being too dirty and smelly.

She didn't find out that this daughter-in-law was actually quite capable!

"Huzi Mom, you-you said that you suddenly ran to study, and I was startled. However, I heard that the college entrance examination is very difficult, and it is not easy to get into a good university. ”

Chen Xingling continued to look at the newspaper and asked slowly, "Mom, what do you want to say?" ”

Forehead?

Li Ying was slightly embarrassed and laughed twice.

"If you can't pass the test, don't force it. I don't think there's anything wrong with Archie's side, so you and Huzi might as well move back to their hometown. You young people have come here to gather together, and you can't be left unattended in your hometown. ”

Chen Xingling didn't raise his head, and said calmly: "In the future, Xiaohuzi and I will stay here in Yucheng." If Archie wants to go back during the Chinese New Year, Huzi and I will accompany him back. ”

"Y-you don't care about me?" Li Ying said angrily: "It is said that raising children to prevent old age, I am this age, and I help you manage your hometown all day long!" Very hard! Why don't you think about it for me? ”

Chen Xingling glanced at her and slowly folded the newspaper in his hand.

"Mom, no one said they didn't care about you. We young people have to struggle to make money, and we can't keep the old house hungry. The working environment here is better, and there are more opportunities to work, so naturally we all have to stay here. When the two sisters-in-law are married, Ah Yi and Xiaoxing will struggle to have a new house, and the place will be spacious, and you can come whenever you want. ”

Li Ying pouted: "You and Huzi can't go back to live for a few more years?" When Ah Xuan and Ah Miao get married, let's come here together? ”

"I can't." Chen Xingling spoke softly, and his tone was non-negotiable.

Li Ying snorted depressedly and coldly: "My hometown is very busy, and I have to help you with an old woman." I'm this age, so you can't be considerate and considerate? ”

"I can't do it." Chen Xingling said quietly: "My sister-in-law has grown up, and you are not old. It's just three meals a day at home, so there's not much work. You don't have to go to work to make money, and your sisters-in-law can also help, is your hometown so busy? My mother is older than you, she has to catch the sea to dry seafood during the day, and she has to help bring a few grandchildren, not only to make money but also to take care of the housework and grandchildren, but she never feels tired, and she does not ask her daughters-in-law to be considerate of her. ”

If she is really busy, it is not easy for the juniors to be more considerate of her, but she is too lazy to become famous, so how can her son and daughter-in-law, who are running around for a living every day, understand her?

Li Ying was secretly angry, Chen Xingling was no longer the daughter-in-law she was at her disposal years ago, and she had no choice but to give up.
