He sighed happily: "It's better for the third aunt to come back, I like the third aunt." ”

Sister-in-law Lin laughed and pinched his cheeks, which had grown some flesh: "As long as you can talk, go to sleep." ”

The children's energy is there, and during the day the village runs around, and they will lie on the bed and smack their aftertastes, and fall asleep without saying a few words.

Camellia slept next to her mother, and when she saw that her mother covered her brother with a quilt and lay down, she also smiled happily: "Mother, I also think it's good for the third aunt to come back." ”

Sister-in-law Lin still doesn't know her daughter, and she has been counting the days for a while, counting when the third daughter-in-law will come back.

It is estimated that when I received a telegram the day before yesterday saying that the third daughter-in-law was coming back, the whole family was the happiest about this girl.

It's not a matter of a day or two that the girl likes the third aunt, and she can say that she and the third aunt will buy peach pink clothes when she grows up and makes money in the future.

However, the third daughter-in-law is also good to her daughter, often giving candy to eat hair rings or something, and also teaching her daughter to read and memorize poems.

Sister-in-law Lin, who is a mother, is naturally grateful in her eyes, and she also looks forward to her daughter growing up, maybe she can make money by writing articles like her third aunt.

Even if you don't, it's good to know more Braille.

This will also know in my heart that what the daughter said, "The third aunt is back", is completely different from what the son just said because he was happy eating meat.

The girl felt in her heart that it was good for the third aunt to come back, after all, she had been looking forward to it for so long.

Sister-in-law Lin smiled and said, "You have been looking forward to it for so long and finally looking forward to it back, of course you think it's good." ”

"I also think it's good that your third aunt is back, I'm used to getting along and suddenly I don't see anyone, and I'm worried about it."

She said this with her conscience.

I usually don't feel it at home, but this year we get along with each other and have real feelings.

Even when I didn't hear a word of praise from the third daughter-in-law when I ate after cooking, I felt as if something was missing.

Camellia smiled, stretched out his hand and hugged his mother's belly: "When the third aunt is rested, I will play with her." ”

Sister-in-law Lin responded: "Let's sleep first, it's so energetic at night." ”

Concubine.

The stone also fell asleep with the smell of meat, and the sleeping millet was next to him.

The brother and sister even sleep in the same position, they both like to lie on their sides and arch into a shrimp shape, put their hands into fists next to their faces, and exhale with their mouths open.

The two of them slept next to each other, and Second Brother Lin and Second Sister-in-law Lin slept together and chatted.

Second sister-in-law Lin: "Will you go to the county seat tomorrow morning to continue working?" ”

Second Brother Lin: "Well, I was supposed to come back from leave in the afternoon." ”

He and his eldest brother both worked as temporary laborers in the cement factory for two months to move cement, but they were in different groups.

Recently, it happened that the eldest brother was a little busier on his side, and he was more relaxed on his side. So when his father came to look for him and said that it was convenient for him to ask for leave to pick up the third brother and sister at the train station, he responded.

Second sister-in-law Lin: "Okay." Thanks to the return of the third siblings, you can take a half-day off to rest, go home to see me and the children, and stay at home for one night. ”

Second Brother Lin smiled and hugged her tightly: "I also miss your mother and son over there, and I can come back in more than a month to prepare for the New Year." ”

Thinking that after these two months, the small family would be able to save some money again, and he felt that no matter how hard it was, it was worth it.

Second sister-in-law Lin: "Don't you look forward to the New Year at the end of this year, and the third brother and sister come back today as if it were the New Year, everyone is happy." I have missed her for more than half a month. ”

Second Brother Lin nodded: "It's really like the New Year, just look at the stone and eat the meat in your stomach before going to bed." ”

Second sister-in-law Lin remembered the harvest last autumn, even if she didn't follow her sister-in-law to scold her third brother and sister for being lazy and not presentable, she felt uncomfortable in her heart.

How could I have thought that today, a year later, the three brothers and sisters went to the army for more than half a month, and they could still think about when they would come back.

Remembering that the third brother and sister love to eat the food she cooks, she took the initiative to tell her sister-in-law that she would come to stir-fry today, and it would have been her sister-in-law's turn today.

She couldn't help but laugh and said this to her husband in a low voice.

The couple had a good relationship and said everything, but because their man went to work in the county, they hadn't seen each other for a long time, and they couldn't stop talking.

For a while, both of them were in good spirits and didn't bother to sleep.

Main room.

Father Lin used to lie on the bed and close his eyes to sleep, but what the old woman wanted to say to him, he could also respond.

This will extinguish the kerosene lamp, Mother Lin covered the quilt and remembered that she had just seen the third daughter-in-law in the evening, she said: "The third daughter-in-law doesn't look thin, and she should have a good life in the army." ”

She was worried that the third daughter-in-law was too busy with training to take care of the family, and the third daughter-in-law was not a person who could cook and stir-fry, so what should she do if both of them were hungry when they turned around.

That's why I picked eggs for the third daughter-in-law to bring over, and the third daughter-in-law also prepared noodles by herself.

Father Lin: "The third child is not stupid, his daughter-in-law will go to the army to see him, and he will arrange it." If the couple doesn't cook, they go to the army canteen to eat. ”

He now has a high acceptance of the third daughter-in-law, and he is a person who can write articles and publish them in the city newspaper and the provincial newspaper, which is amazing.

Even if you don't like to cook and do housework, these things have become a trivial matter.

Mother Lin: "Yes, anyway, I'll go there to live for a while, as long as the couple have a good relationship, it's okay to eat in the army canteen." We used to envy the city workers who could eat in the factory canteen when they went to work. ”

However, now there are few factories in the county that have canteens, and there are still those government units.

She thought of something and said happily, "I look at the appearance of the third daughter-in-law coming back, it should be comfortable to live there." It's comfortable, and in the future, she is willing to go to the army from time to time to live with the third child for a while. ”

The mother hopes that her son and daughter-in-law will have a good relationship and that the husband and wife will be harmonious.

Father Lin nodded: "Anyway, everything is fine, don't worry about it." ”

Mother Lin was not happy to hear this: "How can I be blind and worry, it can't be more normal, okay?" It's hard to talk to an old man like you. ”

Father Lin didn't refute when he heard it, and when he saw that the old woman was silent, he thought he could sleep.

The elbows that were next to each other were suddenly pushed.

Mother Lin: "Sleeping? ”

Mother Lin: "Hey, did you see that the third daughter-in-law still had a watch in her hand when she came back?" I guess I bought it with her when the third child was resting. ”

Father Lin responded in a drowsy voice: "No, why am I staring at people?" Nor is it suitable. ”

Mother Lin disliked: "I don't know how good that watch is on the hands of the third daughter-in-law, it is so conspicuous, I can see the eldest and second daughter-in-law, you men have straight eyes." ”

She concluded, "The couple must have a better relationship after this time." ”

Father Lin: "...... Good...... Good ......"

The next day, the sun was three poles.

In the three-room room, Zhou Yunmeng slept comfortably.

The thin quilt is comfortable, the sheets are comfortable, and the pillows are comfortable.

When I opened my eyes, I had a comfortable smile on my face.

She got up after a while, tidied up her clothes and walked out of the door, saying hello to Mother Lin and the others to wash.

Second sister-in-law Lin had already answered and went to the kitchen to heat up breakfast.

After Zhou Yunmeng finished washing, he returned to the hall to sit at the dining table, and the breakfast was also brought out and put in front of him, and there was a glass of warm water, which was poured by Gang Lin's mother.

Second sister-in-law Lin said: "I think about the third brother and sister, you were tired when you came back from the car yesterday, so you should drink porridge this morning to feel more comfortable." Steamed egg custard, and this can of dried shrimp and vegetables is also left, you look at it and eat it. ”

She also asked her mother-in-law what breakfast she wanted to cook for her third siblings this morning, and she was instructed by her mother-in-law to cook it.

In these days, some people cook porridge at home with only a few grains of rice, like porridge water.

The porridge cooked by the Lin family this time put a lot of polished rice, and all the rice milk was boiled out, thick and white. The egg custard is smooth and tender, dripping with sesame oil and bubbling fragrant.

That can of dried shrimp and vegetables is also what she loves to eat. There wasn't much left before I went to the army, and I could still have it after twenty days, so I couldn't see anything to eat at home, so I kept it for her.

Knowing that this breakfast was specially cooked for her, Zhou Yunmeng smiled and thanked him: "Thank you, second sister-in-law, for your hard work." ”

Second sister-in-law Lin shook her head: "It's all a trivial matter, and I made it with everyone's breakfast." ”

Mother Lin sat on the chair in the living room with millet in her arms, and urged with a smile: "Third daughter-in-law, you should have breakfast." ”

Zhou Yunmeng should be good.

Drink porridge for breakfast to warm your stomach, and eat it more fragrant with the creamy egg custard, scoop a spoonful of preserved shrimp and vegetables and mix it with porridge in a bowl and eat it with water.

Zhou Yunmeng ate, thinking that next time he went to the county seat, he would have to find an excuse to bring back a canned of dried shrimp and vegetables.

She knew that Mother Lin and Sister-in-law Lin and Second Sister-in-law Lin also loved to eat this, and said that porridge and rice and sweet potatoes were delicious.

During the meal, she asked casually: "Did they go out to play with Camellia?" ”

Sister-in-law Lin had a headache when she heard this: "Hutou has been crazy in the village lately, and after breakfast, his second uncle pulled the stones and ran around to play." ”

"Camellia originally wanted to say that when you woke up and played with you, I was so crooked that I went to play with you. It's good to have her watch, so as not to be a tiger. ”

Second sister-in-law Lin smiled: "It's the stone who loves to play and pulls the tiger head brother to play with him." There are camellia with us, both of whom are relieved. ”

Zhou Yunmeng nodded: "Children love to play normally, it's rare that they don't have to go to work, and it's not hot. ”

Mother Lin hugged Xiaomi and said: "Anyway, the three children go out to play every day, and your father is fine, either make bamboo baskets at home, or go to the brigade to listen to the radio with those old men." He's going to listen to the radio today. ”

Zhou Yunmeng smiled: "It's good that Dad can pass the time like this." ”

She also learned from Mother Lin that there was an extra radio on the side of the brigade in the past half a month, and it was broadcast when there was nothing to do, which attracted many old men to listen there and chat by the way.

Don't look at everyone facing the loess with their backs to the sky, they barely knew a few words in the literacy class at the beginning, and they also have the heart to care about national affairs.

They can't go outside, and it's good to be able to listen to the radio and know what's going on outside.

The old ladies in the village are different, they prefer to gather at the fork in the road or at the entrance of the village to say that the family is short and spittle.

It is said to be cool, and the wind blows from the hot summer to the cold winter, without stopping.

Mother Lin teased the millet in her arms, when the child was noisy, he had to walk alone and learn to jump, and when he was quiet, he was also obedient, turning his black pupils to listen attentively to the adults.

She said: "Usually there are only me and your sister-in-law and your sister-in-law left at home. Thanks to millet, I accompany me to the fork in the road from time to time to enjoy the coolness. ”

As soon as Xiaomi heard her name, she grinned, and clapped her hands excitedly: "Milk!" Milk! ”

This is thinking that the milk calls her, and she also wants to call the milk.

It just made everyone laugh.

Zhou Yunmeng said to Mother Lin: "It's okay, mother, I'm back, there is another person in the family, it's more lively." ”

This is in response to her sentence "I and your sister-in-law and sister-in-law are left at home".

Mother Lin smiled when she heard this: "That's the truth." ”
