On the way back, Zhang Xiaodong was halfway through the ride and suddenly stopped the car.

He plucked a few hand-washing leaves on the side of the road, and then stuffed the weeds into his mouth a few times under Xiao Nizi's shocked and puzzled gaze.

"You...... Are you hungry! ”

I don't know why Zhang Xiaodong eats grass, Xiao Nizi asked hesitantly, she put her hand into the pocket of her clothes, and took out half of a potato cake wrapped in paper.

"You're good to eat this!"

Burst! Zhang Xiaodong almost squirted out the weeds in his mouth.

This little girl! When did you steal the food from the house and bring it out!

I don't know that the gloves are in my pocket after working for a long time, but I can take them out and eat them, right?

He continued to chew the grass in his mouth until it was all crushed, then spit it out and wrapped it around Mai's sleeve.

"Hand out!" Zhang Xiaodong ordered.

Although Yan Ruohua hesitated a little, she still obediently stretched out her hand and was caught in Zhang Xiaodong's hand.

He squeezed the wrapped weeds hard, and the green juice dripped from the cracks in the linen clothes and dripped to the blistered place on Yan Ruohua's hands.

"This is a hand-washing leaf, the scientific name is Pepper of the Narrow Leaf Mountain, and it has an effect on the blisters on your hands, and the healing effect is much better than the ointment in your city!"

Zhang Xiaodong popularized science.

"Oh......"

Yan Ruohua raised her hand up, her expression a little indescribably bitter. She doesn't care what kind of handwashing leaf or footwashing leaf it is, in her eyes, this is Zhang Xiaodong's saliva.

……

Continuing on the road, riding all the way to the village, Zhang Xiaodong did not go in the direction of home, but turned to a grain and oil store in the village, where he spent 40 yuan to buy two bags of corn flour and two bags of white flour and carried them on three wheels.

"Are we going to eat so much for the two of us?" Xiao Nizi asked with some surprise.

How much you can eat yourself, don't you know?

Zhang Xiaodong scolded for a while and replied: "Half of it belongs to our family, and the other half is given to the people who will go there in a while." ”

Then, he continued to ride on the car, took Yan Ruohua around and around, and finally came to a house on the edge of the village.

Zhang Xiaodong parked the three wheels in the yard, and then walked to the house with two bags of powder.

Just then, a woman in her thirties heard movement in the courtyard and walked out of the house.

"Little Sister-in-law Gong!" Zhang Xiaodong shouted.

When the woman saw that it was Zhang Xiaodong, her face suddenly surged with a variety of complex expressions, including excitement, and she wanted to say something, but she suddenly lost her words, and the words she wanted to say choked in her throat, and finally came to her senses and shouted loudly into the house:

"Daddy! Daqing! Xiaodong is coming! ”

Then, she couldn't help but help carry one of the bags of noodles off Zhang Xiaodong's shoulder, and stepped into the house in three steps and two steps, as if she was not carrying something, and Yan Ruohua, who had just climbed down from the tricycle, was stunned.

"Uncle! Brother Daqing! I've brought my daughter-in-law to see you! ”

After Zhang Xiaodong walked into the inner room, he shouted enthusiastically, and then pulled the somewhat timid little Nizi who followed behind him to his side and introduced it to the people in the house.

"This is Ruohua, from ...... Heck, it's from the city anyway, and like the village chief's son, he's also a high school graduate, and he's almost a college student. Ruohua, come, this is uncle, Brother Daqing, this is Sister-in-law Gong. ”

"Uncle is good, Brother Daqing is good, little Sister-in-law Gong is good......" Yan Ruohua responded timidly, but she still didn't recover from the surprise of seeing the two people on the bed just now.

The two men on the bed, one of whom looked to be in his seventies, leaned against the wall, his eyes a little glazed, and he looked like he had Alzheimer's.

The other man is also in his early forties, and although the years have left some traces on his face, it can be seen that he is still a little handsome when he is young.

To Yan Ruohua's surprise, this man was originally half-lying on the quilt, and when he saw Zhang Xiaodong and the others coming in, he was slowly moving to the side of the bed close to them with his hands supporting his body, just because his lower body had no legs!

Yesterday, the quick-witted Yan Ruohua had already sorted out Zhang Xiaodong's direct relatives in his heart.

His second uncle's family, his aunt's family, and his fourth uncle's family, but only the uncle's family did not appear, and no one mentioned it at the wedding.

It turned out that this was his uncle's house......

"Good! Okay, it's really handsome, it looks different from the dirt in our village, Xiaodong, you are lucky...... Dad, take a look, Xiaodong is older, and he has married a daughter-in-law! ”

The man moved over and held Zhang Xiaodong's hand, his hands trembled slightly, and he was also very excited.

At the other end of the bed, Zhang Xiaodong's uncle Zhang Chunxiang was muttering, looking at the roof by himself, his eyes didn't look this way, and when he heard the voice, he also turned his head and said with a confused expression:

"Xiao ...... Xiaodong? Who is this...... Oh, I remembered...... It's the guy who owed me three pounds of noodles thirty years ago...... This guy dares to come too? See I don't break his dog's legs......"

As he spoke, the old man seemed to be a little emotional, picked up the pipe in his hand and took a sip in his mouth, and then took it in his hand, and wanted to get up and play.

"Dad, what are you fooling about! This is Xiaodong! Your little nephew! ”

Next to him, Gong Xia hurriedly stepped forward and pressed the old man, and slapped him on the back to give him relief. The old man's emotions came and went quickly, and this shun quieted down, and continued to lean against the wall, as if he was in a state of discouragement, muttering in his mouth:

"Don't come and snatch my pipe...... You're trying to rob my grandfather of his life......"

"Xiaodong, and that ...... Ruohua, don't take it to heart, since your aunt died, your uncle has been old and confused, just leave him alone. Gong Xia comforted the old man and turned around and said.

Then, she seemed to have a restrained and embarrassed expression when she saw Zhang Xiaodong for the first time, and said embarrassedly:

"Xiaodong, you got married yesterday, I originally wanted to go, but yesterday happened to be when the person in the town wanted to collect herbs from me, if I didn't go, I would have to wait another month, and I didn't have a relationship with other people in the village, so I ......"

As she spoke, Gong Xia turned around, rummaged through the cabinet next to the bed, and then took out a crumpled red cloth wrapped in money.

"Little Sister-in-law Gong, don't say anything, I came here today, and I didn't come to ask for red envelopes!"

Zhang Xiaodong immediately squatted down, grabbed Gong Xia, and hurriedly stuffed the red envelope in her hand back into the cabinet. Gong Xia was about to take out the red envelope again and stuff it to Yan Ruohua, who was standing there obediently, Zhang Xiao hurriedly stopped and pulled Gong Xia.

"Xiaodong, you! You! You speak! ”

On the bed, Zhang Qing saw Zhang Xiaodong's fluent speech, and seemed to realize something, his expression was a little excited, and he was about to come over with his hands on his lean.

Gong Xia was still pulling with Zhang Xiaodong, but when she saw the reaction of her man on the bed, she suddenly became excited, and said in a trembling voice: "Xiaodong, you are ......"

"Yes! Brother Daqing! Little Sister-in-law Gong! I'm not stupid anymore! Zhang Xiaodong grinned and generously admitted.
