Chapter 18 goes to town with the second brother
"Lingbao you, your eyes ......"
After being shocked, Erhuazi shook his head and looked at Lingbao again, thinking if it was his own delusion? He seemed to see Lingbao's eyes change color.
Shen Su'e came out of the kitchen at this time and shouted in the direction of her second son: "What are you doing at the door?" Don't hurry up yet! ”
"Oh." In response, Erhuazi hurriedly walked towards his mother.
"You take this money, a total of ten yuan, and see how many food stamps you can buy," Shen Su'e folded a piece of five yuan and five pieces of one dollar neatly, handed them out, and said, "Don't be foolish, do you hear?" ”
"What can I do? Don't worry, I'll pay you back as much money as I have left, and I won't hide a cent. ”
While the two were talking, Lingbao ran back into the house.
"Daddy, Daddy," she said to Daddy, who was bowing his head and wearing rag shoes, "Second brother is here, Daddy, is the second brother a big villain?" ”
"Huh?" Jiang Qingshan was stunned, thinking that it was normal for Lingbao to ask such a question, since the day she was brought home, Erhuazi had not done anything good.
Touching Lingbao's little head, he said, "Your second brother is not bad." ”
"But he made his mother unhappy before, and he came to the house with bad aunts to grab meat, Lingbao didn't like him, and Lingbao didn't like the people who made his mother angry."
"Your second brother, what do you say," Jiang Qingshan thought about it seriously, "It's just that when he grows up, he thinks that his daughter-in-law is more important, and he listens to his daughter-in-law for everything, for fear that his daughter-in-law will be unhappy, Lingbao, do you understand?" ”
The little milk baby shook her head, "I don't understand, how can a daughter-in-law be as important as a mother?" Lingbao married a daughter-in-law in the future, and she also loved her mother the most. ”
Her father was so amused by her that he smiled, and his eyes were almost invisible when he laughed, "Hahahaha, little fool, you are a girl, you can't marry a daughter-in-law......"
"Huh?" Lingbao blinked his eyes twice, "Why?" Brothers can marry daughters-in-law, why can't Lingbao marry? ”
Jiang Qingshan didn't know how to explain it, "In short, only boys can marry daughters-in-law, but girls can't marry." ”
The little girl didn't seem to understand, "Anyway, Lingbao thinks that her daughter-in-law is not as important as her mother." ”
"In fact, when a man marries a daughter-in-law, he should be more partial to his daughter-in-law, that is, your second sister-in-law is too much, and I can't tell my father, in short, the world of adults is very complicated, and Lingbao will understand when he grows up."
Xiao Lingbao frowned, trying to understand his father's words, "So, second brother, he is not a big villain?" ”
"Well, although your brothers have a lot of shortcomings, they are not bad people."
"Lingbao understands."
Nodding his little head, Lingbao thought to himself, since the second brother is not a big villain, does Lingbao want to help him?
There was a black aura floating in his eyebrows, if he didn't help him, he would definitely encounter something particularly bad today.
Outside, Erhuazi unbuttoned the two buttons on the old padded jacket and carefully put the money into the inner pocket of the clothes, "Mother, then I'm leaving?" ”
"Let's go," Shen Su'e urged, "don't miss the carriage." ”
Erhuazi looked at the kitchen and swallowed his saliva, "Mother, can you give me a mouthful of noodle soup?" I don't want noodles, I just want to drink soup to warm up. ”
In the end, it was her own son, although she had complained a lot about him in recent years, but seeing him shrinking his neck and trembling, she was still a little unbearable.
"Come in and eat," Shen Su'e said as she walked back to the kitchen, taking a bowl of noodles and filling it, "There's a stove in there, it's warmer for you to sit here and eat." ”
In addition to the noodle soup, she also sandwiched a few chopsticks noodles for him.
"Thank you, mother." Erhuazi took the bowl, blew on the hot noodles, first took a sip of soup, then picked up the noodles, and blew two more breaths.
Although the noodles are made with only salt and alkali, they are very strong and delicious, and the salty aroma is filled with a hint of sweetness from the flour itself, and the taste is indescribably delicious.
Erhuazi squinted his eyes, thinking that this was the best noodle he had ever tasted, and the noodles he used to eat at the noodle stall couldn't be compared to this bowl of noodles at all.
Hungry, he finished eating a bite of noodles, and immediately picked up the noodles with chopsticks, and sent them to his mouth before he blew them, so hot that he inhaled cool air.
"Shhh...... It's delicious, mother, this noodle you make is so delicious! ”
Shen Su'e smiled: "You eat slowly, don't blister your tongue." ”
"The noodles made of this rich and strong powder are different, smooth and springy." Erhuazi ate the noodles in one go and drank all the soup.
After closing his eyes and savoring the taste of noodles for a while, he put the dishes and chopsticks on the stove and said, "Mother, I'm leaving!" Don't worry, I promise to complete the task today and buy you the flour back. ”
"Let's go......"
Shen Su'e just waved her hand, and a sweet and glutinous little voice outside sounded, "Mother, Lingbao wants to go with the second brother." ”
For a moment, both people in the room looked in her direction, "Huh? ”
Erhuazi was stunned for less than two seconds, his eyes bent, he laughed, and bowed his body to the little milk baby and asked, "Does Lingbao want to play with the second brother?" ”
"Hmm!" The little guy nodded, "Go play~"
Her mother hurriedly stepped forward, "Lingbao, your second brother is not going to play, he is going to the town to buy things, you can't go, he has no time to take care of you." ”
"Lingbao doesn't need to be taken care of, don't worry, I'll take care of myself!"
Erhuazi likes Lingbao's little doll very much, firstly, she thinks she looks cute and aura, and secondly, she thinks that she may really be a little lucky, "Mother, Lingbao has been nesting in the house these days without a companion, why don't I take her for a walk?" ”
"This ......," Shen Su'e hesitated, "don't lose people." ”
"Am I that unreliable? Lingbao She is the heart and soul of you and your father, I must hold her firmly, how can I lose people? ”
Saying this, as if thinking of something, he continued: "That's right! If I have some money left after buying flour, I will buy some maltose for Lingbao to eat, what will happen? I remember that there was a stall selling maltose at the mouth of the alley south of the supply and marketing cooperative, and many children gathered there, and Lingbao must have loved to eat it. ”
Shen Su'e thought about the snow, the children in the village were all nested in the house, and Lingbao was really boring without a companion.
After some consideration, she agreed: "That's it, you are optimistic about Lingbao, if she is missing a hair, I will not spare you." ”
Erhuazi promised again and again that his mother finally handed over the Lingbao to him.
Before sending Lingbao out of the door, Shen Su'e suddenly grabbed Lingbao and said, "Wait a while", and then hurriedly ran home, found the last two sweet potatoes that she had hidden before, wrapped them in oiled paper, and stuffed them into Lingbao's clothes.
As soon as she cooked the noodles before, she filled Lingbao with a big bowl of noodles that were almost all noodles and no soup, and watched her eat them all.
At this time, she was afraid that Lingbao Road would be hungry, and after stuffing the sweet potatoes, she stuffed her with two yuan, "Buy more delicious food, don't starve yourself." ”
Erhuazi on the side smiled and said, "Mother, you are much better to your daughter than your son." ”
Shen Su'e patted his head, "Am I not good to you?" When you were a child, there was a nest left in the house, and I didn't eat a bite, so I gave it to a few of you boys. ”
"I know, heck, I'm not kidding."
"Alright, let's get in the car."
Erhuazi took Lingbao's little hand, walked all the way to the production team, paid the coachman three cents, got into the carriage, and after everyone was full, the coachman waved his whip and shouted "Drive", and the car began to move forward.
The villagers sitting in a car looked at Lingbao curiously and jokingly asked Erhuazi, "Don't you and your daughter-in-law hate this child?" Why are you going to take her to town? You don't want to secretly throw people away, do you? ”
