Chapter 204: Liberation
Xinlan came out of the old lady's house, and Sun Wei had already sent Li Li to work and walked for a long time. I don't know when the street lights have been lit, and the halo is connected into an uninterrupted string, illuminating the way when Xinlan came, and also shining in Xinlan's heart, making her feel bright.
Good things followed, completely breaking the shackles that imprisoned Xinlan's mood, and Xinlan's long-suppressed mood was completely released. She wanted to tell her mother the news immediately, but she felt that it was too late, and that when the time was gone, they would not be able to rest all night. Alas, forget it, it's cloudy, let's go early on a cloudy day, I'm busy all day, and I will rest early, and I won't be sleepy when I go home on a cloudy day. Thinking like this, she walked comfortably on the way back to the store, browsing the street scenery along the way, and suddenly felt that everything was so beautiful, and even the cool air of the occasional passing vehicles made Xinlan feel exceptionally refreshing. Before she knew it, she was in the square in a moment. Before the movie started, the square was a mess and full of people waiting to enter. Looking at the crowd in front of other stores, she knew that the goods had been put away, and the business would definitely not be in a hurry, but this was just right, saving others from saying that the goods were incomplete, which affected the future business. Let's talk about it when we come back, and we will definitely do a good job of business then.
Unable to do business, Xinlan planned to go to bed early, and got into the bed when she entered the house. But how did she know that the good news of this day made her energetic but not sleepy at all, she tried her best to calm down, deliberately didn't think about anything, but even this didn't work, the more anxious she was, the more she couldn't sleep. In this way, she stayed up with her eyes open until the end of the movie, and when there was no movement on the street outside, she slowly fell asleep.
Xinlan slept soundly this night, and went straight to the next morning. She walked out the door, and it was drowsy, and it was not yet bright. She was puzzled, and went back to the house to look at her watch, it was the rush hour for work in the past, she knew that it was late in winter, and she didn't care, she only remembered what the old lady had said in her heart, lest she didn't rush and fell behind her younger siblings, so she didn't dare to stay in the store longer, so she took a bag of snacks out of the square. Because it was Sunday, there were not as many people on the streets as they used to be. She bought her father's favorite two mixes and fritters and came to her parents' house early.
When her mother heard the knock on the door, she was happy to let Xinlan in.
"Mom, the rice is back, call my dad to eat, don't be cold!" Xinlan's tone was relaxed, not as low as usual.
"Okay, okay." The old lady agreed here, and then went to call the old man to eat.
So, Xinlan hurriedly opened the table here, set the meal, and waited for her father to come, and the family of three gathered around the table to eat. During the meal, the old lady remembered Xinlan's affairs, so she asked, "Xinlan, how did you arrange this trip?" Are you going to go back today or on a cloudy day? ”
"It depends, the car during the day will definitely not be able to catch up, if the time is too late, I will take the passing car at night, and I will be able to get home in the morning on a cloudy day."
"If it's a night train, the time will definitely be able to catch up, and in this winter, you don't know if it's cloudy or late? It's eight o'clock, and I'm still dazed. I guess your brother and sister will arrive here at about ten o'clock, and they won't come too early. ”
"That's okay, the car at night, they come sooner or later, as long as you can see it, you said that this is our family's first happy event, I can't leave without waiting to meet them!"
"Of course! They are uncles and aunts, and if you don't tell them it's yours, won't it? ”
"I know, so I just want to come over early to see what we need to buy for dinner at noon, and I have to go buy in advance."
"What to buy? You don't have to buy anything! Your mother is afraid of delaying your business, so she was busy with this yesterday afternoon, and made a big pot of dumpling filling, afraid of sourness, and put it on the balcony at night, so let's eat dumplings today! The old man only cared about eating, and he didn't speak for a long time, but when he heard about it, he happened to free his mouth, so he answered.
"That's it, let's eat dumplings." The old lady also said.
Xinlan didn't expect herself to be so blessed, she ate dumplings for a day yesterday, and today is again, she felt ridiculous when she thought about it, and couldn't help laughing and said: "Mom, I've been lucky in the past two days, I just ate two dumplings yesterday, and today it's dumplings again." ”
"Yesterday? Where did you eat yesterday? The old lady asked curiously.
"Mom, I just have something to tell you, let's tell you and my dad after eating in a while, otherwise the rice will be cold."
"Good! Good! The old lady was also afraid that the breakfast would be cold, and when she heard Xinlan say this, she was busy agreeing here, and she and the old man hurried to eat again.
In this way, after eating breakfast and washing up, Xinlan and her parents went back to the back room. While sitting on the sofa and resting, Xinlan told her parents about the house yesterday.
But Xinlan didn't expect that her mother didn't believe it when she heard it. In her opinion, it is absolutely impossible to let such a house for no reason and without a little blood relationship, and let you live in such a house, not a penny, and say that you will be allowed to live in it. And now the reason why Xinlan said this is completely for her own sake, because she was afraid that she would mention to Xinjun and Da Ling that the matter of asking for a house would affect family harmony and deliberately arranged the story. Alas, no wonder! My daughter has not been here for a long time, and there are some things that I naturally dare not fight for, which is also reasonable, it seems that only I help her ask for this matter. The old lady thought like this, and made up her mind in her heart, she was afraid that Xinlan would oppose it again, so she said to Xinlan: "Don't worry about this, after you left last time, I thought about it, this time I made up my mind to ask you for this house, I don't believe it, they can live in it, you can't live in it!" ”
"Oops! Mom, why don't you believe what I say? What I said is true, you must not mention this matter again, otherwise Da Ling will listen to it, and the family will be unhappy. Xinlan was a little anxious when she heard that her mother didn't believe it.
"What's the matter, don't you say it's unpleasant? Chenchen doesn't live here often, can he still occupy this house? Can't I help you save the emergency? ”
"It's not! Mom, don't disbelieve what I say, listen to me tell you in detail, and you'll know if what I'm saying is true or not. ”
"Then you can say it! Your dad and I are listening, and if that weren't the case, you wouldn't stop me! The old lady was still holding on.
"Good—good!" Xinlan heard that her mother was no longer angry, so she started the matter of the house from the old lady Sun recognized herself to her side, and ended with Sun Wei's parents coming back to pick up the old lady and how Sun Wei's parents recognized Sun Wei under their knees.
The old couple listened attentively, and after listening, they felt that this matter was a bit too coincidental. The old lady has been thinking about Xinlan in her heart, and when she saw this, she was worried that she would mess things up, so she said to Xinlan: "When you say this, I don't believe it, you have a nose and eyes, not like making it up; I believe it, but I think it's such a coincidence. It's just true or not, I'll know when Mrs. Sun goes to the south, it's a big deal to wait a few more days, and then I'll talk about it when Lu Dong and his family come. Tell me about it, what are you going to do next? ”
"That's not simple, this time I'll bring Lu Dong and his family back first, let them live in the factory, and I live in the square. When the old lady and Sun Wei and Li Li went to the south, I stayed at home, and when they were cleaned up, it was time for the Spring Festival, and they had a place to live as soon as they came. Xinlan seemed to have thought about it a long time ago, and said casually.
When the old couple heard it, they felt that it no longer looked like a lie made up, and they were both relieved for Xinlan. In addition to being happy, the old man remembered that the old woman was sad about this matter in the past few days, and he was full of emotion, so he said: "Girl, your mother and I feel that you are the most sorry for you, I can't help you this time, so I want to help you in the matter of living, but who knows that you have such good luck, your mother and I are really happy." You know that your mother is stunned, I have been depressed for a long time for you to do this, and I have been thinking about it for a few days, and this time it can be regarded as ready to be broken, who knew that you would come out like this again, and you could be regarded as liberating your mother! ”
Xinlan listened to it and said with a smile: "Actually, this is all the credit of my godmother, I think when I first heard about it yesterday, don't mention the excitement in my heart, I'm really happy!" Alas, let's not talk about it, let's prepare to make dumplings, everyone will come in a while, and we have to be busy. ”
The matter was resolved, a family crisis was resolved in an instant, and the old couple were very happy. They are busy, and when everything is ready, they wrap the dumplings first. Seeing that it was nearly ten o'clock, Xinjun and Xinmei also arrived one after another, and the atmosphere suddenly became lively. When everyone gathered together and sat down to make dumplings, they talked about Lu Dong's marriage. So, Xinlan introduced the situation to them. When the two families heard this, they were both happy for the eldest sister, and at the same time, they also added a bride price to express it. The sisters live far away from each other, and they haven't seen each other for a long time, but today they got together again, although it was said that it was for Lu Dong's marriage, but the matter of returning was a topic of common concern to everyone. was busy, and it didn't affect his speech, so after talking about Lu Dong, he talked about the matter of moving back.
Xinlan was so happy in her heart, she had been excited about the house, and at this time, she couldn't bear the joy in her heart. Her relaxed mood infected everyone, everyone couldn't help but be happy for her, and at the same time sighed for her adventures, and by the way, they also praised Mrs. Sun's family for their goodness.
The family talked and laughed, and the rare warm scene infected everyone present. The old couple hadn't seen the scene of a family reunion for a long time, but it was on the occasion of the eldest daughter's family and happy events, not to mention how happy the old couple was. Watching the children lively, the old couple just occasionally accommodated a few words and did not interject much, more just listening, watching, just like that, they enjoyed this rare time until the afternoon Xinjun and Xinmei families were going back, the old man couldn't help but say: "Don't say anything, watching our family reunite, I'm very happy, the boss moved here this time, there must be a lot of unexpected difficulties and discomforts, I hope that you sisters will often walk around in the future, take care of each other, don't not contact for a whole month, then there will be a part, Our old couple is not forgiving in age, and our body must be worse day by day, I don't pray for anything from you, I just want you to live well! The old man's words were flat, but everyone was very moved when they listened. The family knew that the old father was not in good health, and when they heard him, they all came to persuade the old father to pay attention to taking care of his health.
The old man hadn't seen such a warm situation at home for a long time, and the old couple who had been affected by Xinlan's incident had been depressed for a long time, and at this time, ...... The old man was so excited that he couldn't say anything anymore, so he accompanied everyone to send the two children out.
There was nothing more touching for Xinlan, she accompanied her parents to watch Xinjun and Xinmei go away, and then she returned home with her parents. While speaking, the old lady mentioned the bride price prepared for Lu Dong, so she went to the cabinet and took out a stack of money that had been prepared and handed it to Xinlan. Xinlan took it, and Yin Xian felt a thick stack of money, at least two or three hundred yuan, so she wanted to return it to her mother, but she was forced to stuff it back by her mother. Looking at her mother's attitude, Xinlan knew that it was impossible not to take it, so she caught it, counted it, and put it in her close-fitting pocket.
