Chapter 395 The Sister Recognized by the State

At around ten o'clock in the morning, Dad Yan and Wu Xiuhong went to the town to buy vegetables and came back.

Both of them went there by bicycle, but the new bicycle that Yan Xin bought was ridden by Wu Xiuhong, while Yan's father rode the old bicycle that Wu Xiuhong used to push to sell tofu.

But this is also a very normal thing. Yan Xin saw it and didn't say anything.

On the other hand, the two older ones were somewhat embarrassed when they saw Yan Xin.

The two of them have been together for such a long time, but Yan's father always has something to let go of in front of his son. He always feels that he is a bit old and shameless when he remarries. up.

In front of Yan Xin, he would deliberately keep a certain distance from Wu Xiuhong, and never showed any affectionate expression.

Just because I was afraid of irritating my son.

This even made Yan Xin a little worried about whether the old couple had problems getting along and whether they could go on forever.

It looked like two strangers.

Wu Xiuhong is a door-to-door seller of tofu, and her mentality is better. When she sees Yan Xin, she greets her cordially and asks her relatives. She looks even more affectionate than Yan's father.

This time they went to the town next door to buy some ingredients, which they were not usually willing to eat, including beef, mutton, pork ribs, pig's trotters, as well as rice field eels and soft-shelled turtles. It seemed that they spent a lot of money.

There is no need to buy chickens. The chickens raised by the two families have now been brought together. There are thirty or forty chickens in total. If you want to eat or kill two, you don’t need to buy them from outside. .

From the town, I can only buy the kind of vegetable chicken raised in a farm, which tastes relatively bad, and if it is not done well, it will bring chicken plague-it is not unheard of.

The ingredients together cost two to three hundred yuan, and Yan Xin often eats out for more than that.

But for Dad Yan and the others, it was a rare luxury.

It's also because marriage is a major event in life, and you have to entertain a few close relatives, otherwise you wouldn't be so willing, even if it's Chinese New Year.

In addition, I bought two sets of clothes for Bai Xiaoling, which cost two or three hundred yuan, which made Bai Xiaoling so happy that she hugged her mother and said "Mom, you are so kind", but her mother threw her away and treated her explain:

"The main reason is that you will go out to work in a few days, and you are afraid that people will look down on you if you wear too shabby clothes. These two sets of clothes cost me two or three hundred yuan. You should take care of them, and they won't be worn out in a few days. "

Bai Xiaoling made a promise happily: "Don't worry, I will definitely enshrine it like a national treasure. The clothes are in the people's lives, and the clothes are dead..."

Before she finished speaking, her mother covered her mouth: "Go, go, don't talk nonsense, as if you have never seen good clothes."

"I've never seen it before..." Bai Xiaoling muttered softly.

It's two sets of clothes, not two pieces of clothes. The top and pants make up four pieces of clothes. The total cost is 300 yuan, which is not really a good dress.

If you buy it at the online store of Jinxi E-commerce Company, you can get this grade for less than 200 yuan.

In a few years, it will be even cheaper to buy online.

But Bai Xiaoling's usual outfit only costs a few tens of dollars, and clothes that cost 20 yuan a piece are the norm. For her, these are really good clothes.

Yan Xin was quite emotional, thinking about whether to buy some better clothes for this half-sister when he went to the county tomorrow, but after thinking about it, he finally decided to forget it.

When she earns her own money, she can buy it with her own money.

Get into the habit of spending your own money, he thinks it's better for girls.

Otherwise, everything is expected to be delivered by others, and the whole person will be useless.

After the old couple came back, they rested for more than ten minutes, and then began to make lunch.

Tomorrow is the right day, but today is Yan Xin's return. Given the huge financial contribution he has made to the family, it is completely understandable to cook a sumptuous lunch to welcome his arrival.

The family of four is busy.

Although Wu Xiuhong repeatedly said that there were no need for so many people and asked Yan Xin to go back to the room to rest, Yan Xin still insisted on staying to help.

It's not because he is so diligent, the main reason is that the family has not been so lively for a long time. In the past few years, only he and his father depended on each other, and his father is not a person who likes to talk. No matter when the relationship between father and son is not good, it gets better. It has been like this since then, and it seems that the house is deserted.

Now that there were two more people, and there was a chattering Bai Xiaoling inside, it suddenly became much more lively, and the family also gained some popularity.

Yan Xin is enjoying the excitement now.

He believes that his father is also enjoying the excitement now.

Although his father still hasn't said anything, it can be seen from his expression that he is very happy.

For this happiness, Yan Xin felt that it was worthwhile for him to make such a suggestion.

Even if Bai Xiaoling went out to work in two days, the family would no longer be as lively as it is today, but with Wu Xiuhong here as a company, she would never be as lonely as before.

Especially this year is still a cold winter.

It's really depressing to live alone.

In the previous life, when Yan Xin thought about the fact that his father was seriously injured and disabled because of the heavy snow that collapsed the house this winter, he felt very sad. He blamed himself for being useless and for being too cold-blooded. He never thought about his family or thought about improving it environment, let my father suffer like that.

If it weren't for the help from the neighbors, his father would have froze to death in that cold winter.

But at that time, he was thousands of miles away, and he didn't even have an escort—the traffic was blocked by heavy snow, and he couldn't come back even if he wanted to come back at that time.

Sometimes when I regret it, I can't wait to slap myself a few times.

From the beginning of this life, what he was thinking of was to build a strong house before the snowstorm came, so as not to have the tragedy of his previous life.

He achieved this goal last year.

Now this house is not only well built, but also beautiful, the most beautiful house in the village.

However, his father is alone in his hometown, and he is still lonely.

Every time he came back, his father's joy and his father's reluctance when he left, he could see clearly.

Although his father didn't say anything like that, it could be seen in his eyes.

He is a man of two lifetimes, and he has also experienced some things. He can understand that part of this emotion comes from nostalgia for his relatives, but part of it is also because of loneliness.

He hopes that there is such a person who can relieve his father's loneliness and make his father feel the happiness of this world more often.

And not just when he's around.

Now, his father finally had such a person by his side.

His father is happy, so is he.

Otherwise, when he enjoys life, when he thinks of his father who lives alone in his hometown, he will feel that he is not worthy of enjoying the beautiful life he has now, and thinks it is a manifestation of heartlessness.

This kind of combination didn't just make his father's life happier, it was the same for Wu Xiuhong.

It is not easy for a widow to pull a daughter.

Moreover, according to the customs in the countryside, a daughter will not provide for her parents when she is married. At most, she will come to take care of her parents for a few days when they are sick and lying in bed.

If it is clear that parents are going to provide for the elderly, it is difficult for anyone to want such a daughter-because the burden is too heavy.

It was for this reason that Feng Xi never married when she was so old in her previous life. Otherwise, on her terms, she would never have married Yan Xin.

If she doesn't find someone to marry, Wu Xiuhong's old age will be difficult.

It is also a lucky thing for her to be able to marry Yan's father.

Now the conditions of the Yan family are very good, and the son of the Yan family has been recognized as filial in the past two years, and he does not reject her as a stepmother, and he even actively facilitated this marriage.

With such a sensible child, the family will not have too many conflicts due to children's problems in the future.

In addition, Dad Yan is also an honest person, without those bad habits, and is worth entrusting to him for life.

When two people are together, it doesn't necessarily mean who is taking care of whom, but that they are taking care of each other.

It is also a good thing for her to have such a companion in her later years.

She was also very happy to see the bustling appearance of this brand new combined family.

After suffering half my life, I finally saw some light.

It is actually not that easy for two families to form a new family, and it takes time to get used to it.

Some even can't get used to it for several years or decades, but the longer the time, the greater the damage.

But luckier than other combined families, all members of these two families agree with this combination, and are also working hard to accept each other's existence.

If everyone works hard in one direction, it will be much easier.

It's hard for anyone to say what kind of thoughts they have in private, but on the surface they already look like a family, even more harmonious than many normal families.

——Naturally, there are traces of performance in it, but it is already very rare to be willing to perform in this aspect.

In the past, Yan Xin called Wu Xiuhong even Wu Xiuhong. She will marry his father tomorrow. In order not to appear out of place, he has changed his name to "Mom" this time.

Of course, it was still awkward when he first screamed, and he thought of his own mother from time to time, and felt like a traitor.

But after calling a few more words, it became smoother.

When he called Wu Xiuhong "Mom" for the first time, Wu Xiuhong was unprepared and a little stunned, but more happy and moved.

I think this kid is really good.

He responded, and then tears fell.

Afraid of being laughed at, he quickly turned his head and wiped it off secretly.

Both Yan Xin and Bai Xiaoling saw it, but they could only pretend that they didn't see it.

Bai Xiaoling didn't know what she thought of, her eyes gradually turned red.

This little girl often looks crazy, like a heartless child, but in fact she has a lot of thoughts.

A really heartless child would not lick his face and call Yan Xin brother and father Yan father when the marriage is not settled.

That kind of behavior is not a normal behavior of a person, but more of being forced by life, just wanting to have a better living environment, so he can only behave like that.

This kind of picture made everyone feel a little bit emotional, and sometimes even showed some emotional embarrassment.

However, everyone also tacitly acted as if they hadn't seen such a performance, and they still talked and laughed, appearing very harmonious.

After eating, they chatted for a while before Yan Xin went back to his bedroom.

When he went upstairs, Bai Xiaoling followed him upstairs.

Her bedroom is also on the second floor, so it is understandable to follow her up.

Yan Xin didn't care.

He just went to his bedroom, opened the door, and Bai Xiaoling followed him in.

Yan Xin asked her in surprise: "Isn't your room over there? What are you doing here?"

"Brother, we haven't seen each other for a long time, let's chat." Bai Xiaoling said with a smile.

Yan Xin opened his mouth and yawned: "I'm so sleepy... forget it now, I'm a little sleepy, I need to take a nap, let's talk again after I wake up."

Actually, it's not that sleepy, it's just that she doesn't want to stay in the same room with Bai Xiaoling.

This is too dangerous.

"Then go to sleep, I won't disturb your sleep." Bai Xiaoling said empathetically.

But she didn't go out, but sat on a chair in the bedroom.

From the looks of it, he was planning to sit here while Yan Xin was sleeping.

Yan Xin was depressed: "But, you are in this room, how can I sleep?"

Bai Xiaoling smiled sweetly: "Brother, don't worry, I won't make any noise, and I won't disturb your sleep."

"It's not necessary..." Yan Xin said.

He made a suggestion: "Why don't you go back to your room and take a nap? Wait until we're all rested, and then chat."

Bai Xiaoling shook her head: "Brother, I don't have the habit of taking a nap, I'm not sleepy."

Yan Xin had no choice but to force the person away, shook his head, got to the bed, took off his shoes and socks, lay down on the bed, and then pulled the quilt to cover himself.

It is true that I am a little sleepy and need to take a nap to relieve the fatigue from the journey.

He should have taken off his coat so that he could sleep comfortably, but Bai Xiaoling was in this room, so he really didn't dare to do that.

On the contrary, Bai Xiaoling was a little strange: "Brother, don't you take off your outer clothes when you sleep?"

"Eh..." Yan Xin could only talk nonsense, "I usually don't take off my coat when I take a nap, anyway, I just sleep for a while, I don't want to bother."

Bai Xiaoling: "Then I'm different, I can't sleep well with clothes on..."

If other girls said such things, Yan Xin might chase after her: "Don't you sleep without clothes?"

But now it is his half-sister who is saying this. Although there is no blood relationship, she is his sister. This relationship will be reflected in the household registration book in the future, and she is a sister recognized by the state.

He really didn't dare to say this.

Can only pretend not to hear.

However, I couldn't help simulating that scene in my mind, and then I didn't dare to think about it anymore.

He closed his eyes, indicating that he had already started to sleep.

Seeing that he was sleeping well, Bai Xiaoling asked again with a smile: "Brother, anyway, you are going to sleep now, why don't you borrow your mobile phone and let me play for a while?"

It was only then that Yan Xin realized that it turned out that the reason for this girl to follow her so shamelessly was to call him on his cell phone.

There are twenty or thirty small videos in his mobile phone that are not suitable for children.

If this girl sees this, what's the deal?

Opening his eyes, he said bluntly, "No!"

"Why?" Bai Xiaoling was very disappointed, "Anyway, you don't need it now, so let me play for a while. Don't worry, I won't damage your phone."

"No, no, this is not negotiable." Yan Xin firmly rejected her.

Bai Xiaoling pouted, looking very disappointed.

Yan Xin took the opportunity to educate her: "Xiaoling, I'm not talking about you. You must remember this after you go out. Don't look at other people's mobile phones casually. It might cause big trouble. You have to understand that others There may be some very private things in your mobile phone, which are not suitable for outsiders to see. In the future, don’t show your mobile phone to others, and don’t look at other people’s mobile phones, you know?”

Bai Xiaoling let out an oh, expressing that she understood.

But then he added: "But you are my brother."

Yan Xin was a little depressed, and it was hard to say that he was not her brother, that would be too hurtful.

They are brothers and sisters, so it doesn't matter if you say it like this.

The problem is that they are not biological brothers and sisters, they are unrelated brothers and sisters from a combined family, and their relationship is not good enough to say such a thing.

I can only say: "But brothers and sisters also need to have a sense of marginality, and they can't look at each other's mobile phones. Don't say that you can't do this between brothers and sisters, even between husband and wife, you must leave each other a private space, and you can't violate it at will. .”

"Okay, I understand. I won't play with other people's mobile phones anymore." Bai Xiaoling said.

Yan Xin breathed a sigh of relief.

Then Bai Xiaoling said: "But, brother, you can play with my mobile phone as you like, I don't have any objections."

Yan Xin blushed and thought to himself: "Why do I feel that this girl is mocking me?"

But he has no evidence.

So I can only pretend that I didn't understand, and said with a gratified smile: "It's good that you have such an understanding, but I still want to tell you, don't show your mobile phone to others."

"Yeah, I know," Bai Xiaoling nodded vigorously, "I remember, I don't show my mobile phone to others."

But he added with a smile: "But others can't see it, bro, you can."

Yan Xin didn't want to talk anymore, and closed her eyes: "Well... I'm very sleepy now, so I won't chat with you anymore, I'm going to sleep."

"Go to sleep, I'll just play with my mobile phone here for a while - my own mobile phone." Bai Xiaoling said.

Yan Xin was afraid that the girl would take his mobile phone to check while he was asleep, and secretly put the mobile phone next to the pillow back into her pocket again.

Although there is a possibility of being crushed like this, in order to keep the secrets in the phone, he can only do this.

The quality of Nokia mobile phones is famous all over the world. This is a legendary portable weapon that is as famous as a brick, and it is not so easy to crush.

After putting it in his pocket, he fell asleep peacefully.

After a while, I fell asleep.

Hearing the sound of snoring, Bai Xiaoling gently moved the chair to the side of the bed.
