"Originally, I was supposed to follow us this year, but who knew that Lin Piao, who could stand things up to the next year, suddenly came, alas...... As soon as the year is over, he will be ready for the exam, I guess he can be a child, he is the youngest child in our Shen family, right? The more the eldest aunt said, the more pity it became, if only Shen Hong could be raised under her knees, such a good seedling is not related to them at all, how can it not be a pity.

The eldest uncle saw her thoughts: "Don't be too sorry for you, what's the matter is also a relative, and moving around more in the future is also a relationship, didn't you go to send something when he fell into the water before, as long as there is a relationship, there is affection." ”

"That's right, we haven't given him much of a birthday in the past few days, but it's a pity that his father and big brother are gone, and there is no elder in the family, otherwise we used to give him a lively birthday?"

When the eldest uncle heard this, he frowned: "How can we be the elders to celebrate the birthday of the juniors, you have to go to you, anyway, I won't go to this part." ”

When the eldest aunt heard this, she was okay: "Okay, then I'll go, anyway, his house is Lin Piao, you big men don't always walk around there, I just go and walk around often, I'll pack some things and put them in a basket later, put them on and send them to him in a decent way, and I can get by if I have a decent appearance." ”

The eldest uncle nodded and went with him, anyway, he was right, Shen Hong is such a promising child, he still has to be surrounded when he should be surrounded on weekdays.

The eldest aunt packed up her things here, thinking about sending a few eggs to look too painless, and now there is nothing else to send at home during the New Year's Festival, so it looks festive and New Year's flavor when you put two sausages and some dried red dates and peanuts.

She was packing up her things here, and the second aunt happened to pass by and saw it, and couldn't help but look at it a few more times: "Sister-in-law? Where are you going for a drink? ”

"It's not about eating and drinking."

"Where is that going? I also sent these things, and I didn't hear any of the things in the village that were running errands recently. The second aunt glanced at her suspiciously, and where she went was where she went, why did she still cover it up and not say anything, and she couldn't see anything that was unacceptable.

The eldest aunt was asked by her and had no choice but to say: "Our relatives, I vaguely remember that it was my birthday, and I wanted to go over and have a look." ”

"Which one?" The second aunt frowned, how many relatives could there be in their village, and they still asked in such a secretive way without mentioning their names, she thought to herself, who else could have been born in this winter.

"Shen Hong, right?" As soon as the second aunt mentioned this name, she was not angry, and then she looked at the eldest aunt who tried her best to avoid herself and refused to mention Shen Hong's name.

"Yes......" The eldest aunt reluctantly admitted.

The second aunt immediately sneered: "It's nothing if you go and I don't go, when the time comes, people only remember that there is you, the eldest aunt, but they can't remember that there is a second uncle. ”

"Since you want to go, then we will go together, there are no elders in Shen Hong's family, and having us celebrate his birthday can be regarded as making up for this family affection."

"Of course he has no elders, let alone elders, there is no one in his family who has a relationship with him, and he lives an intimate life with an outsider, I haven't seen him think about going outside here, I said, sister-in-law, don't just think about giving him a favor, don't just remember that he has a brother-in-law, and he can't remember that he has an uncle!"

"Okay, okay, you just don't say a word, since you want to go, pack up and go, go, don't talk about this, after all, it's people's birthdays, it's a good day, let's sit down and eat, don't they all say that their food is good, we also go to eat, and we don't suffer a loss, you say no."

When the second aunt heard this, her heart was a little smoother: "Cheng, add a few more eggs and it will be mine, let's go together." ”

They were about to go out, and Yuling was coming out of the house to find the second uncle: "Mother, what kind of food do you want to eat at noon, this will prepare my good cooking." ”

Now that her sister-in-law is pregnant with a child, she is still the child of the eldest son of the eldest uncle in the family, and the money is very expensive.

As soon as the second aunt saw her, thinking that they were all going out to eat, and the daughter-in-law who had to keep her daughter-in-law to serve her sister-in-law felt uncomfortable for a while: "Yuling, you came just in time, let's go to celebrate Shen Hong's birthday, we want to go over there to eat, the food over there is good, it just so happens that you also follow us and help carry things." ”

Yuling nodded in a daze, looked at them, looked left and right, and saw nothing big, so the eldest aunt was carrying a basket in her hand, so she was embarrassed to ask what she was going to mention.

The eldest aunt wanted to say that Yuling didn't need to go, but she looked at the second aunt's majestic appearance, thinking that with Yuling by her side, someone would persuade her to pull a little.

The three of them walked in the direction of Lin Piao's house, and the eldest aunt was beating drums in her heart all the way, thinking that the second aunt must not make any trouble, otherwise there would be a feud if the relationship did not come out this time.

They gradually approached in the direction of Lin Piao's house, and the second aunt was also lively.

"Erzhu, stop playing! Go untie two sausages and a piece of bacon down! ”

"Ergou, clean up the table and put the table together."

"Dawang, did you boil the water well?"

"Piao'er, come and taste it, look at the taste, do you want to add something?"

Lin Piao was also busy here, tidying up the venue, tasting the food, helping to serve the food, and a bunch of people coming in and out of the house like clockwork.

Shen Hong sat by the stove and read a book, always feeling that today was a little unusual, usually when it was time to eat, it was so busy and lively, but today seemed to be extremely busy, and even the students who usually played in the hall and waited for dinner were in full swing to participate.

He put down his book and walked outside to the stove: "Auntie, is there anything I can help with?" ”

The second aunt waved her hand: "It's okay, it's okay, you go sit and read, there's nothing to do here, it's just what you can do when cooking." ”

Shen Hong suspiciously glanced at the dishes full of stoves, on which there were many more dishes to be fried than usual, and even his sister-in-law, who was usually idle, was now sitting on the side and busy choosing vegetables.

"Okay, don't look here, you can go back to the house and read the book to get serious, and the dishes will be fine in a while." The second aunt wiped her hand, and even coaxed Shen Hong into the room.

When Shen Hong returned to the house, she returned to the stove and breathed a sigh of relief, lowered her voice and said with her lips: "It seems that this kid hasn't remembered that it is his birthday!" ”

Lin Piao raised his head and said in a low voice: "It's been a long time, and I must have forgotten about this thing a long time ago." ”

In order to make the food hot on the table, they prepared the dishes first, and all the dishes were sorted and packed, even the rabbit was mixed with the pickled pepper first, making it similar to the feeling of a semi-finished product, and when the firewood was burned, it was fried like a hot assembly line, or it would be able to serve out a dish in a while, and a whole table would be made up after a while.

Usually there are two tables, everyone eats separately, so as not to squeeze a bunch of food, and it is also convenient for students to pick up dishes, today Erzhu deliberately put the two tables together, connected into a long table, the dishes are put full of a table, some dishes are pretended to be two, one at the head of the table and one at the end of the table.

The students exchanged glances, and they had all stood aside in advance, waiting for Shen Hong to sit down.

Lin Piao shouted, "Shen Hong, it's time to eat." ”

Shen Hong heard the sound and put down the book and walked towards the dining table, but before he could get there, he heard a knock on the door outside.

"Who?" The second aunt looked outside, and she couldn't wait to stretch her neck outside the courtyard gate to see who was so short-sighted and knocked on the door at this time.

Zheng Qiu quickly ran through the snowy courtyard and opened the door: "Who are you looking for?" ”

At first glance, isn't this Shen Hong's eldest aunt and second aunt? Immediately, he felt a sigh in his heart, and quickly looked back at Lin Piao.

The eldest aunt and the second aunt Yuling walked in and saw that they were around the table, and the table was full of steaming dishes.

The eldest aunt immediately brought out a smile: "Are you celebrating your birthday?" We thought we'd come over and have a good time, Shen Hong would be fourteen years old, right? It's almost a big boy! ”

The eldest aunt stepped forward and put the basket aside: "We have brought some things, they are not rare, and the children can eat them casually." ”

The eldest aunt felt that there was nothing wrong with what she had said, and she had been saying it this way for many years, and why did one or two of them freeze in place, as if she had said something inappropriate.

The students were stunned and waited for a long time just to say that Mr. was safe and well-being, but before they could leave, the door was robbed as soon as it opened.

One by one, they looked back at Shen Hong, who was still standing there, as if he had been thinking for a moment and for a moment, and he didn't have much emotional fluctuations, but he just looked at them, and then at his sister-in-law and second aunt.

He took two steps forward and approached the chair: "Let's sit, don't stand, eldest aunt, second uncle, and sister-in-law Yuling, please also sit." ”

The three of them sat down happily, and Shen Hong then sat down.

Lin Piao sat down next to him, the white eyes in his heart were about to turn to the sky, but the bad guys are also serious relatives, and at this time, a trip to the scene can be regarded as passable, Lin Piao thought about forbearance, anyway, the main event is behind, and when they are gone, just start the link he arranged.

Lin Piao gave the students a look, and immediately Ergou took the lead, and said neatly: "I wish Mr. a safe and healthy birthday, and he will have no worries about his years." After saying that, the students sat down in unison.

The second aunt originally wanted to come to the birthday banquet to eat, but she couldn't lose anything, but she came to such a show, which reminded her of her own interrupted education career, and immediately her eyes were the most bitter, and she was embarrassed in her heart, thinking that Lin Piao's little hooves would really crowd people, and she would give her a dismount first.

The eldest aunt watched from the sidelines, thinking that Shen Hong was really a good person, teaching some children in the village to be so decent, and all of them were polite and obedient to look at people's hearts, and Yu Guang couldn't help but look at the second aunt, and saw that although her expression was not good, she had no intention of making trouble, and her heart suddenly felt a lot more relieved.

They ate the meal smoothly, and the food here was indeed delicious, and the second aunt's mouth was blocked, and she didn't have the heart to get sour about other things.

After eating, they didn't have a good time to leave, so they sat down to roast the fire and chatted for a long time.

Lin Piao also endured and endured in his heart, thinking about why these two people didn't leave, until the second aunt said that Shen Bo was a child, and asked Shen Bo to take care of Shen Hong more in the county government, and his brother helped him in the future, Shen Bo would definitely not forget Shen Hong's.

Endure it, endure it, endure it.

It's unbearable.

Lin Piao finally couldn't restrain his white eyes, he easily didn't roll his eyes, unless he really couldn't help it.

When the second aunt saw his expression, she suddenly became angry, thinking that I was saying good things, and said that I would take care of Shen Hong in the future, what are you rolling your eyes at, you just look down on us, right?

"What the hell do you look like, at what age are you gone, right? I think I can't ask for anything after I think I'm the best, right? The second aunt couldn't help but scold.

The eldest aunt was so frightened that she held down the second aunt's hand, and she sat next to the second aunt as if she was guarding next to a mine, but the mine still exploded.

Lin Piao thought to himself that this is what you have to load the muzzle, obviously the relationship is not good, so you have to come to rub: "What are you doing here?" A good day to add to our bad luck? ”

The second aunt shook off the eldest aunt's hand: "Bad luck? You say, I'm unlucky? As soon as you got married, you killed your man, and I was kind enough to come over to you and say that I was unlucky? ”

Shen Hongben was reading a book in the room, and he was not surprised to hear them arguing, so he immediately frowned and stood up and walked towards the hall.

"Second uncle, be cautious."

The second aunt knew that Shen Hong must be partial to Lin Piao, but she didn't expect him to be so biased, and he didn't say two decent fair words, but only told her not to speak.

"You were really raised by this brother and don't know what to do, I said, what happened to him? I haven't scolded him yet, isn't your eldest brother just because he married in? ”

"Second uncle, I don't want to hear you say this again My sister-in-law, if it's okay, please ask the second aunt to go back, and you won't have to come over in the future."

Shen Hong watched his sister-in-law endure a meal, but it was unreasonable to ask her sister-in-law to endure it at this time.

The second aunt's eyes widened suddenly, and for the first time in her life, she was about to be kicked out by the juniors: "Shen Hong, do you have to speak human words?" I am your elder, you are so protective of your brother-in-law, I haven't said anything about you, what kind of great thing are you, your father and mother were good before you gave birth to you, you were born for only a few years, your father and mother are gone in a blink of an eye, you are your father, he is your eldest brother, you two are a pair of Tiansha Lone Star, no wonder you can get together! ”

"Shut up!" The eldest aunt hurriedly scolded her, looked at Yuling, she shrank aside and did not say anything to persuade her, and the eldest aunt suddenly had a head bigger than two.

Lin Piao sneered and looked at her: "Then don't come to our door in the future, and don't come to rub our table, be careful, our Tiansha Lone Star will kill you, and your daughter-in-law will cry for you." ”

The second aunt was so angry that she wanted to say something, but the second dog had already made a look, and pulled the second pillar to push her out of the courtyard and pushed her out of the door, she scolded all the way to no avail, leaving the eldest aunt to stand in the hall awkwardly, and quickly packed up her things and said goodbye to Yuling.

The second aunt struggled outside the yard and refused to leave, and the second dog threw her directly in the snow outside. The child beats the elders ! ”

Ergou looked innocent: "Don't talk nonsense!" You fell on your own ass, and you want to hit my head, you can't fall on purpose, right? ”

The second aunt's voice was louder, and the second dog's voice was louder than the second aunt's, and the people who heard it only said that this old woman had come to toss Shen Honglin again, and that she was going to slander the students, and they all came out of the house to see her laughter.

The second aunt did not expect that the neighbors here believed so much that the students here were good-looking, and when they saw that they all saw that they were smiling and did not help them speak, they could only get up and curse by themselves.

"Today, on Shen Hong's birthday, she came to eat, and after eating, she wiped her mouth and began to scold our little sister-in-law and Shen Hong for being a pair of heavenly evil solitary stars." The second dog said that he smashed her head with a ball of snow: "Shameless! ”

Erzhu also followed, and the people next to him heard Ergou say this, thinking that the second aunt was really lacking in virtue, and it was not too much to beat him, and he didn't stop the two teenagers, and the second aunt was smashed by them and his head was cold, thinking that it was really reasonable to explain here, these cubs were taught to be too good at reversing black and white, and they retreated while hiding, and they didn't care about the others running first.

She walked quickly, but the snowball was still chasing behind, dodging more than 100 meters before running away completely.

Lin Piao frowned in the room: "Don't listen to that, it's just nonsense, life and death are destiny, how can you still have a relationship with others." ”

Shen Hong nodded, and did not say anything else.

He really didn't have any relatives.

Lin Piao looked at his expression for a while, and suddenly felt that Shen Hong had listened to that words, maybe this was not the first time he felt like this, maybe he had thought this way before.

"Do you really feel that way?"

Shen Hong was silent for a while: "It is true that my mother was sick after giving birth to me, and my father followed me very quickly, if it were not for me, maybe it wouldn't be like this, Mr. Wang said, my life is too good, it will hinder others." ”

Wang Tongsheng again?

Lin Piao thought to himself, there are really a lot of new hatreds and old hatreds.

Lin Piao stretched his head over: "I think this kind of talk is all nonsense, gods and ghosts are all false things, fate is also very ethereal, nothing is as good as living every day at the moment, but if you really feel that you are a nuisance, anyway, I seem to have a very hard life, you can't stop me, I can't stop you, isn't there nothing to worry about in the future?" ”

Shen Hong looked at Lin Piao's smile and coaxed him, and nodded seriously: "Yes, sister-in-law is right." ”

"Okay, today's delicious meal is finished, the annoying spirit has been sent away, and we have a small part next."

Shen Hong was a little surprised, he thought that preparing such a rich table today was all it was, after all, it was just like this when his father and mother were still there.

"What?"
