Chapter 84: Uncle Gu has an accident
Xia Youzhi frowned.
She really disagrees with Xia Jinfeng's approach, but everyone chooses differently, and she can only respect her sister-in-law's approach.
"Don't think about it, your sister-in-law is an adult, she will judge herself." Xia Mu patted Xia Youzhi, "Okay, the dumplings are ready, you can eat them first." ”
Upstairs, the mother and daughter estimated that it would take some time.
"I'll call Qinglin and Mingxuan to come in and eat." After speaking, Xia Youzhi was about to turn around.
"No, you eat by yourself first, if you let them eat, you don't have to eat tonight." Xia Mu smiled and stopped.
Xia Youzhi nodded.
I took a bowl and ate it in the kitchen.
"You kid, how good it would be to eat in the dining room." Xia Mu smiled while chopping vegetables.
"No, I'm going to stay here with you." Xia Youzhi shook his head, and said that it was another dumpling import, "Mom, the dumplings you made are delicious." ”
"Huh." Xia Mu let out a pleasant laugh, "You just don't have to be a sycophant." ”
"By the way, Mom, isn't the farm work done at home yet?" \"
Xia Youzhi doesn't know much about things in the field, but it's been a week, so he should be busy.
"The rice at home was harvested the day before yesterday, but it still had to be dried. Yesterday, your eldest brother came, saying that he came to see me and Qinglin, and when he saw that the sky was gloomy, he ran home again, afraid that your father would be left at home, and it would be too late to harvest rice, and it would not be good for it to sprout in the rain at that time. Xia Mu said with a smile.
"Big brother came yesterday?" Xia Youzhi stopped his movements and looked at Xia Mu.
After Xia Mu finished cutting the vegetables, she added firewood under the stove, "Yes, I didn't stay long." ”
"Mom, big brother has to go to Kyoto, right? It's almost time to report. Xia Youzhi asked.
Otherwise, it would have been too late to report.
"Yes, that's what I told him, but he said he wasn't in a hurry, just on the last day. He still wants to help your dad at home, but I'm afraid that your dad won't be able to do so much work alone. ”
Xia Youzhi was silent for a moment and said, "It's really not good, I'll do it." ”
Rushing to report on the last day, that would be too dangerous.
These words made Xia Mu laugh, looking at the fine skin and tender flesh of Xia You's body, "Don't worry, this sun allows you to dry rice, and it can dry you into a piece of black charcoal." ”
"It's okay, I'm coming with my dad in turn, otherwise my brother would have gone so late, what if something delays on the way." Xia Youzhi analyzed.
When Xia Mu heard it, it was also the same reason.
"And I want my uncle and them to come to the house for dinner, and last time my brother was admitted to college, he didn't give them good news." The way of summer young.
Xia Mu nodded, "That's the reason, when the time comes, call your uncle and the second uncle's family to have a meal together, and you have to go to worship your ancestors." ”
"Then the day after tomorrow, after I finish delivering the goods tomorrow, our family will go back, and as for the goods the day after tomorrow, let my sister-in-law help deliver it." Mom, you can also find someone to report to my uncle and his family. Xia Youzhi said with a smile.
"Okay." Xia Mu happily responded, "By the way, how are you doing in school?" ”
"It's okay, it should be no problem to go to school, but I still have to wait for the school to notice."
Xia Youzhi said with a smile, she didn't want Xia Mu to worry.
Hearing this, Xia Mu's hanging heart let go, "Learning is still the first." ”
"Hmm." Xia You's heart echoed absentmindedly.
Let's take it one step at a time.
At dinner, Xia Jinfeng's mother and daughter's mood had eased a lot, but the eyes of both mother and daughter were red.
The grandmother of the Ma family also came.
Xia's mother told everyone about Xia Qingbo's college wine.
"That's a good feeling, this has to be done." Xia Jinfeng came to the spirit.
"It's not about wine, it's just a family meal." Xia Mu smiled.
"That's okay, when the time comes, kill two chickens and sacrifice to the ancestors." Xia Jinfeng hurriedly said.
Xia Mu smiled and nodded, "Yes, this has to go, thank the ancestors for bless our family." ”
At the dinner table, there was a lot of fun.
Xia Youzhi glanced at Ma Jinglan.
Ma Jinglan seemed to notice something, and when she raised her eyes to look at Xia Youzhi, she was stunned for a moment, and then smiled.
Xia Youzhi also smiled.
It seems that the little girl's mood has improved a lot.
After dinner, Xia Jinfeng's family went home happily.
The next day, Xia Youzhi finished delivering the goods early, and the family of three returned to Niujiao Village with a large bag.
Xia Mu hired a car directly on the street, but there were too many things to take.
The car couldn't get in not far from the entrance of the village, and Xia You's family could only get out of the car with their things.
Just walked into the entrance of the village.
"Oh, Cuilian, are you back?"
When Grandma Liu saw Xia Youzhi and them, she was so excited that she walked out of the pork stall and greeted them.
"Grandma Liu......"
Xia Qinglin hadn't seen Grandma Liu for several days, so she was so excited that she ran over directly.
"Oops, Qinglin." Grandma Liu happily helped Xia Qinglin into her arms, "I miss Grandma Liu." ”
Xia Qinglin kept drilling in Grandma Liu's arms, knocking Grandma Liu back a few steps.
"Be careful, Qinglin, don't put Grandma Liu down." Xia Youzhi carried something and said with some amusement.
Grandma Liu looked up with a smile, "Oh, no, Grandma Liu's body is still stiff and straight, and it's not bad." Girl, listen to your mother, you went back to the school in the city to sign up? ”
Xia You smiled and nodded at the corner of her mouth.
She did not correct Grandma Liu's statement.
"Aunt Liu, your eyes are really good, you can see it from afar." Xia Mu smiled.
"Not really." Grandma Liu said with a smile.
At this time, it was the busy farming season, and the village was quiet, and even the eldest lady who used to sit here and gossip was gone.
The seventy or eighty elderly people in the family have to help the family cook or something.
"Have you had breakfast?" Xia Mu asked with a smile.
"I've eaten, just now the people came, and I took half a catty of pig's head meat home, but it is estimated that I will go to the grain field at this time, Qingbo has followed the old Gu family out of the village for a long time, I don't know why I went." Grandma Xia said energetically.
She looked at the things in Xia Mu and Xia Youzhi's hands, "You big bags and small bags, they look weird, hurry up and go home." ”
Xia Youzhi was a little surprised.
Did her eldest brother leave the village with Gu Tingshen?
Could it be...... Problems for workers' families?
Xia Mu on the side smiled and nodded, "Okay, then let's go home first." ”
As he spoke, he called Xia Qinglin.
"No, I'm going to set up a stall here with Grandma Liu."
Xia Qinglin didn't want to go home, he missed Grandma Liu.
"Cheng, you will stay with Grandma Liu." Grandma Liu said with a smile.
Xia Youzhi looked at the reluctant Xia Qinglin, and said with a smile, "Then you are not allowed to make trouble with Grandma Liu here." ”
Xia Qinglin nodded, "Got it, sister." ”
"Grandma Liu, then I'll go home with my mother first." Xia Youzhi smiled, and was about to leave as he spoke, when he suddenly thought of something again, "By the way, Grandma Liu, my eldest brother is ready to go to school."
The day after tomorrow, I want to invite my uncle to have a meal, as well as my uncle and second uncle and their whole family, and you and Grandpa Liu will also come over when the time comes. "Xia Youzhi's sincere invitation.
For the Xia family, Grandma Liu and Grandpa Liu are the benefactors of the Xia family.
In the most difficult time, many of the tuition fees for the three children were borrowed by Grandma Liu and Grandpa Liu.
"That's good, this kid is out of business now." Grandma Liu said, the folds on her face piled together.
She is happy in her heart that all these years of work have not been in vain.
She has no children, and she treats these children of the Xia family as her grandchildren.
"Yes, Aunt Liu, when the time comes, you tell my Uncle Liu not to cook." Xia Mu answered.
"Okay. We'll go when the time comes. Grandma Liu readily agreed.
Seeing that Grandma Liu agreed, Xia Youzhi followed Xia's mother back home.
The threshing floor in the village was at the end of the village, near the edge of the field, and neither mother nor daughter saw anyone along the way.
"It's the first time I've seen such a quiet Niujiao Village." Xia Youzhi sighed.
"It's like this during the busy farming hours." Xia Mu replied with a smile.
Finally entering the house, Xia Youzhi glanced at his small courtyard.
It was the first time she had been away from home for so long since she was reborn.
But when she goes to school, she doesn't stay at home often, and her mother has to move to town.
"What's wrong? A look of reluctance. ”
Xia Mu put her things away, walked out of the kitchen, and saw Xia Youzhi standing under the grape trellis in the yard and looking around the yard.
"It's nothing, it's just that I suddenly feel a little reluctant." Xia Youzhi said.
"Yes, I didn't feel this way when I said I moved to town, and I really didn't feel like it when I came back suddenly."
Xia Mu also looked around at the home where she had lived for twenty years.
This is all built by myself and my husband little by little.
Her children also grew up here.
"It's okay, Mom, anyway, the town is close, and it's easy for you to come back and live when the time comes." Xia Youzhi hurriedly said with relief.
Xia Mu smiled and did not respond.
She also knew that her daughter was comforting herself, and she was busy, where could she say accurately.
"Alright, I'll go see your dad in the barnyard, and you can rest at home for a while." Xia Mu said with a smile.
She was used to doing farm work, and when she returned to the village, she wanted to work in the fields.
"I'll go with you." The way of summer young.
"Don't do it, this solar energy has dried people, you can stay at home." Xia Mu hurriedly stopped.
She couldn't bear to let her daughter suffer this crime.
"Okay then." Xia Youzhi compromised.
It's time for dinner anyway, so stay and cook by yourself.
Xia Mu loaded the water and went out.
Xia Youzhi walked into the kitchen, cooked the rice, and just squatted down to pick a few green vegetable leaves, when he heard the courtyard door squeak and be opened.
"Mom?"
Xia Youzhi screamed suspiciously, but no one responded.
"Mom?"
Xia Youzhi shouted again.
Still no one responded.
Xia Youzhi hurriedly threw down the greens in his hand, stood up, and walked out.
As soon as he walked out of the kitchen, he saw Xia Qingbo standing in the courtyard with an ugly face.
"Big brother?" Xia Youzhi exclaimed in surprise.
Xia Qingbo came back to his senses and raised his eyes to look at Xia Youzhi.
"What's wrong? Big brother, are you alright? Xia Youzhi asked.
Didn't her eldest brother go out with Gu Tingshen?
Why is your face so ugly now?
Something can't be wrong, right?
When Xia Qingbo heard Xia Youzhi's question, he shook his head, "I'm fine." ”
"So what happened?"
Xia Youzhi couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when he heard that Xia Qingbo was fine.
There was a hint of struggle in Xia Qingbo's eyes.
"If there is something, just say it, and everyone will solve it." Xia Youzhi said calmly.
Hearing this, Xia Qingbo no longer hesitated.
"Youzhi, Uncle Gu has an accident."
