Yin Ke was quite curious about that Xu Ning, and actually made Xie Zheng so caring.

"I said, is Xu Ning good-looking?"

"I am so tacky in your eyes?" Xie Zheng glanced at the other side sideways.

"I'm not happy when you say that, I'll tell you." Yin Ke immediately looked at him seriously, "Who tells you that you like good-looking is tacky, you are discrimination against beauty and ugliness, and everyone discriminates against ugly looks. It’s better for you to discriminate against good-looking ones. If this is the case, you should discriminate against yourself first."

After Yin Ke finished speaking, he felt that he should add, "...and me."

Xie Zheng propped his chin and looked at Yin Ke, who was content in front of him. He said that this kid looks really good. Brother Mo and his brothers look like their mothers. Aunt Yin is also a beautiful and intellectual woman in the Imperial City. , The educational background is higher than that of Uncle Yin, the proper beauty is still a turtle, and she is currently working in the Academy of Social Sciences.

"I don't discriminate against you." Xie Zheng laughed.

"...If you don't discriminate against me, you are already discriminating against me." Yin Ke was a little aggrieved by Xie Zheng's words, "But you really like that little country girl?"

"The little girl in the country is getting in your way."

"Look at you, I just mentioned these two words, you just got upset, I didn't say anything bad about the countryside, as for you." Yin Ke really didn't have any bad thoughts, it was nothing in itself. Heartless person, "I'll look for you next summer vacation."

"You are not welcome."

"Oh, don't be like this, buddy, we're brothers who wore a pair of trousers since we were young, right."

On the sixth day of the sixth day, Xu's family started to get busy. Liujiazhuang called on the phone the night before and said that Liu Yongtao was going to bring his two children to visit relatives.

The old lady got ready in the kitchen early in the morning. Liu Yongtao didn't care about it. The main reason was that the two little grandchildren were coming over. She would definitely have to cook more delicious food for the two children.

Xu Ning also wanted to meet those younger siblings. I don’t know how they have been in the past six months, whether Niuniu went to school, and whether the Liu family treated their siblings badly. The old lady should have the same thought.

As for bringing these two children to her side, the old lady didn’t think it was so complicated. Now they still have a father, so naturally they have to stay with her father. Even if Liu Yongtao finds a wife again in the future, her grandmother can’t interfere. too much.

Wash vegetables and kill fish, cut meat and stew chicken.

Near ten o'clock, their home heard footsteps in the alley outside the kitchen, and they could hear the sullen voice of a little girl.

"Xiaobao, run slowly, wash the new clothes yourself if you get dirty." Compared to when I saw Niuniu last year, the character of this little girl has changed a lot.

The old lady shook off the water stains on her hands, rubbing her hands on her apron and running out.

"Grandma, a good New Year." As soon as she ran to the door of her house, Niuniu happily called the old lady, and said to Xiao Bao: "Call grandma."

"Grandma's New Year is a good time." Xiaobao seemed to listen to Niuniu's words, and asked in a proper way, and then whispered: "Do you have New Year's money to buy sweets?"

The old lady suddenly laughed from ear to ear, and took them both to go home.

Liu Yongtao came in two steps slowly carrying things, "Mom, the Chinese New Year is good, how are you doing?"

"Okay, it's all good. It's good for you to watch." The old lady looked back at her son-in-law. "It's cold outside. Come in and get warm."

After passing through the kitchen, Niuniu saw Xu Ning who was squatting at the door picking vegetables, and came to help her consciously, "Sister Ningning, a good Chinese New Year."

Xu Ning looked at the little girl with bright eyes and a cheerful smile, and smiled softly at her.

"Hey, it all made my brother angry." The little girl said very popularly, "He is so skinny, and my dad can't control it."

Xiao Bao shook off the old lady's hand, and took two steps forward, a little unhappy with his stern face, "Sister, how can you speak ill of me behind your back?"

"What secretly, I said clearly."

Xu Jianjun greeted Liu Yongtao to enter the house, poured hot water on him, and the two men started chatting.

Xu Ning finished picking the leeks and put them in a basin for washing, but Niuniu took them over.

She hurriedly removed the little girl's hand, "You are passive, the water is cold, lead Little Treasure into the house to warm it up."

Niuniu didn't care at all, she rushed over quickly, "I'm fine, I often do it at home, I come to wash, what else do I have to do?"

Hearing these words, Xu Ning asked: "You are at home, how are you doing?"

"Very good." Niuniu didn't lie. "Now I am in school. I just want to do more work at home so that my dad will not be too tired, so that my dad may also find me a stepmother later."

After all, seeing Xu Ning's somewhat surprised expression, the little girl said shyly: "My neighbor's aunt and I said it privately."

"You are still young now, don't carry everything by yourself."

"I know."

The adults in the room were chatting happily, and the two little girls in the kitchen also laughed from time to time.

The old lady came over and took a look before, but she was rushed back to the house by Xu Ning and never came out again.

When Xiaobao saw the fried talent, he was greedy and wanted to take a bite, but when Niuniu scolded him a few words, he didn't dare anymore. He moved a small bench and sat next to his sister, waiting for his big eyes to look eagerly. NS.

Xu Ning looked so pitiful, and found a small bowl for him to hold two pieces of chicken.

"Sister, don't get used to him." Niuniu said.

"It's okay. Our condition is that we can eat more meat only after the New Year. There are some children who don't like to eat good things."

"He's a good monkey." Niuniu raised her hand and nodded her brother's forehead. Unfortunately, Little Treasure ate happily and ignored her, "We are separated from my second uncle's house, and the house is divided by a wall in the middle. , I also listen to you, and don’t take care of some gossip the second aunt said."

"Who does your grandparents live with?"

"Living with us, my dad doesn't have good legs and feet, grandma doesn't worry about it." Niuniu said, "but my dad started apprenticeship with a carpenter grandfather in the village last year, and wants to be a carpenter in the future. My milk said he couldn't make money. It’s a lot of money, but it’s enough to feed the family."

"You two are having a good time, so we can rest assured here."

After eating two pieces of chicken, Xiaobao seemed to be waiting to see Xu Ning coming. Sister opened her mouth and shut her sister. As expected, it was like Niuniu said, this smelly boy monkey sperm.

Lunch was quickly prepared, and the two families went to the table.

At noon, I cooked seven or eight kinds of dishes, meat and vegetables are available, and the portion is full.

Xu Ning thought about bringing two fish back when they left, and then loading them two boxes of biscuits and toffee.

Compared with the last time, Xiaobao is quite abiding at the dinner table, and no longer grabs and eats like before.

Whatever you want to eat here, he opened his mouth and Niuniu put it in a bowl for him, and the little guy held a small bowl to eat slowly.

But it still doesn't look good!

Her aunt's appearance is very good, and Liu Yongtao is naturally not bad. How does this child pick the parents' shortcomings?

Look at Niuniu's small appearance, the difference is really big.

It doesn't look like a sibling at all.

"Sister Ningning, what do you always see me doing?" Xu Ning's eyes were probably so hot that the little guy couldn't bear it anymore.

Xu Ning blinked and smiled: "I think Xiaobao is getting more and more sensible now."

"..." Xiaobao probably didn't expect Xu Ning to praise him. He didn't know what to do for a while, "I am a man too."

Then the dinner table burst into laughter.

"Yes, yes, right, Xiaobao is now a man, do you want to protect your sister in the future?" The old lady patted the little grandson on the head, "eat more, you will grow taller in the future."

After lunch, Niuniu helped Xu Ning clean up the dishes and chopsticks, and came to her room to get some sleep.

Xu Ning found four boxes from the Kangtou cabinet, two boxes of biscuits, and two boxes of white rabbits.

"Take it back when you leave, or are you staying here for a while?"

"My milk said that those who are celebrating the Chinese New Year will not be allowed to live outside. If you want to live, you will wait for the summer vacation." Niuniu did not refuse the things Xu Ning gave, "Sister, I will come to play with you during the summer vacation."

"Okay, I'm waiting for you."

Xiaobao is four years old this year and just turned three. He ate a lot at noon and now looks drowsy.

Xu Ning took the little guy to his grandma's room. Her room was quite cold, and she was worried that he would catch a cold when he fell asleep.

At three o'clock in the afternoon, Liu Yongtao picked up his son and led Niuniu home.

Before leaving, the old lady brought them a lot of sausages, six kilograms of pork, two big carps, and the biscuit toffee given by Xu Ning.

Liu Yongtao's expression was quite surprised at the time. These were all good things. His mother-in-law was so willing. He was not the kind of vicious-hearted person who didn't know what was good or bad. He was naturally very grateful.

Now that Xu Chunmei is gone, he is left with a labor force at home. Although he is learning woodworking from the old carpenter in the village, he can't be a teacher for three or two years. The family life is not easy. Fortunately, the girl is sensible, otherwise this day. I really can't get through it yet.

He also knows that his brother-in-law has been promoted, and he is still young, and he can go up if he doesn't know how to do it in the future, not for himself, even if it is for the two children, he has to pull them up.

As for the mother-in-law, let's talk about it when the child grows up.

The Xu family will have no relatives anymore, and they and grandma and aunt have never walked around for many years.

In his spare time, Xu Ning would read books and do exercises all day, and practice a few pages of words every day, trying to make his words look good.

In this day after day, Grandpa Jiang returned with Xie Zheng.

After returning home, Xie Zheng put down his things and went to Xu Ning's house. He gave her the things he brought back from the imperial capital.

"So many?" Xu Ning was surprised.

"It's nothing valuable. It's not easy to bring something to eat. I bought you a pair of shoes and a silk scarf, as well as **** candy, and two cans of malted milk extract."

"...Thank you, Brother Zheng." Xu Ning was very moved. Xie Zheng is really a good boy.

Xie Zheng didn't know Xu Ning's thoughts and activities, otherwise he would have to vomit blood. "How's your review?"

"Very good, I previewed all the new knowledge after school started, and also took notes. Brother Zheng will help me see it later?"

"Okay, get it."

"Tomorrow is not too late. You have been in the car for two days. Let's take a rest."

Jiang Jiahao finally returned to Xiangshan Village the day after the Lantern Festival.

Seriously, he didn't want to come back, but his parents couldn't bear being pointed out all day.

If it was the past, the mother would inevitably talk about how she was reluctant to bear her son, but this time she almost rushed to get him to pack it.

Yu Xinxin did not die in the end. Even if he died, he would not go to jail. After all, Yu Xinxin committed suicide and it had nothing to do with him.

He wondered many times why Yu Xinxin didn't die, and if he was despised, he would recognize him, but the other party is not dead now, but he is already notorious near home. How could he swallow this bad breath.

However, even if he succumbed to resentment, there was no other way but to admit that he was unlucky.

There were four educated youths in the house they lived in before, and when he came back this time, he found that only him and another person called Qianxing were left.

"Yeah, are you back?" Qian Xing saw Jiang Jiahao and smiled helplessly. "It seems that there will be only two of us left in the village this year."

"...Aren't those two coming back?" Jiang Jiahao asked.

"Well, I called them before, and they said they were looking for a job at home, so they won't come back." Qian Xing lay on the kang, sighing with Erlang's legs tilted, "I think my parents fight all day long. Come back, what's the matter with you?"

"I am..." Thinking of what happened to him, Jiang Jiahao couldn't suppress the anger in his body. "Don't mention it, it's also a mess at home."

Qian Xing didn't think much about it. He felt that Jiang Jiahao should be in the same situation as his own.

"Look at it." Qian Xing turned around lazily, "The two, one went to the newly opened hotel as a foreman, the other went to a relative's factory as a small factory manager, and we both, hey..."

"I'm thinking about staying here for a few months and dragging my former classmates to help see if there is a better job. What do you think?"

Jiang Jiahao tidied up his bedroll in silence. Whatever he could think, it was useless.

"Let’s take a look first, take one step at a time." He really doesn’t believe it, and his parents can leave him alone. When he leaves, his mother tells him that when the trustee finds a job for him, of course it’s not staying with him. Home, but go to the field to see.

For Jiang Jiahao, it is really unwilling to stay in this poor country. The whole year's meal is cabbage and radish, and the people who eat it are irritable.

No matter where you go, just don't stay in the countryside.

I just don't know how long it will take for a letter from his mother's side.

At the beginning of the new semester, Xu Ning started a two-point and one-line life as usual.

The news about the relocation of the high school soon became known to the entire school.

It is said that when the summer vacation begins, the high school will move to the county, which means that Xu Ning and Xie Zheng have only half a year left to go to school together.

Xu Ning didn't have any thoughts, but Xie Zheng got a little irritated here.

Originally there was not much time to spend with Xu Ning, but now it's such a fuss.

Although you can go home every week, how can you compare to seeing each other every day?

Besides, Xu Ning has grown up year after year, and looks more and more prettier. Can you rest assured if you don't watch him by your side?

The scumbag is back again, even if it looks like it has nothing to do with Xu Ning now, it is hard to guarantee that the scumbag will not do anything.

Occasionally, Xie Zheng would come up with an idea, just repeat the grade, and stay a few years to be classmates with Ningning.

Of course, this is just a funny idea, and it won't be implemented at all.

After the New Year, everything begins to recover, and the temperature is picking up day by day.

Qin Xuejuan's belly is already firm, and she has to hold her waist when she walks, and it's even more uncomfortable to sleep at night. Usually, she can't sleep well all night, and she suffers no matter how she lies.

Because of this, Xu Jianjun's complexion also deteriorated day by day.

Qin Xuejuan couldn't bear it when she saw it, thinking about letting Xu Ning sleep with her mother-in-law, and separating her from her husband, but Xu Jianjun didn't agree with anything.

No one was watching at night, how could he be relieved.

Until the end of February, the old lady looked at her daughter-in-law's expected delivery date to be this time, and she directly decided that she would let her daughter-in-law go to live in the county hospital.

So taking advantage of a weekday, Xu Jianjun borrowed a tricycle from the village chief's house, placed Qin Xuejuan in it carefully, and hummed on the pedals to the hospital.

No way, Xu Jianjun is afraid that bicycles are not safe, and no one of them from all over the country has a motorcycle at home. Even if they do, Xu Jianjun will not.

Now if anyone can have a motorcycle, it will be really awesome. It is estimated that all the people in the whole country will be able to make a sensation.

Xu Ning and the old lady were sitting on both sides of the tricycle. Although it was not fast, they could still see the scenery. It would take an hour at most.

"Dad, when do we buy a motorcycle?"

"Yo, the little girl still knows motorcycles." Xu Jianjun grinned and said, "Then a car is worth your dad's salary for several months. We will soon add a younger brother or younger sister. Let the two of you eat and drink well, and buy it when the conditions at home are better. I bought it and my dad will take you out for a drive."

"I don't like motorcycles." Xu Ning said with a smile: "Let's not buy motorcycles. When we have money in the family, we will buy a big car."

Now on their side, even if you arrive in the county, you may not be able to see cars running on the street. Even if there is, it is estimated that people from other places are driving here to do business, or passing through their county, even motorcycles. There are not many cars, and there are many bicycles in the county, but they are definitely not flooded.

"Your daughter is a big-hearted girl, good fellow. She doesn't even look down on motorcycles." The old lady seemed to be fascinated by the prospects Xu Ning said. There is no place to stop at our door."

"Oh, mom doesn't know, right?" Xu Jianjun supported his daughters, "We will have big cars by then, are you still worried about not having a big house?"

"Yes, I can take care of the two of you, and the one in broad daylight will start to have a great dream of Spring and Autumn."

Qin Xuejuan was wrapped in a thin quilt, and the whole person was tightly wrapped. Now in the second month of the lunar calendar, the temperature is still very cold.

"Our family will be more diligent when the time comes. I can definitely buy them." She didn't have much interest in these things, but it was transportation. Since she was a child, she was driven by the family driver when she went out or commuted to school. It doesn’t really matter whether there is or not, it’s just a convenience.
