Traveling through Xueba is full of blessings

Chapter 396 Confession (Part [-])
The weather outside is gloomy, one autumn rain and one cold, last night it rained all night in Lishu Village.In the morning, when you lift the quilt, you will shiver from the cold, and those who are willing to burn firewood have already set up a hot kang.

But Su Meili knows how to live. She is always afraid that if there is no firewood to burn in the cold weather, she will freeze to death. The whole family will not have a good time at this time.

Su Meili always manages her life cautiously in the face of unpredictable weather and unexpected situations. She was frightened by the tragedy of the past few years, and her uneasy state of mind made Su Meili always have a backup in whatever she wanted to do.

Even the old man Xia didn't go out of the house when he had nothing to do. He put a kang quilt on his knees, and when he had nothing to do, he smoked dry cigarettes and watched his little grandson Xia Dong write and study.

Every time the old man Xia heard Xia Dong's broken voice reading, he felt that his Xia family was a well-educated family with a lot of heritage, and was superior to other families in the village.

The dilapidated one-story house for decades, even if Xia Aiguo diligently repaired it in the early spring, it still couldn't stop the ventilation inside and outside the house.

After Xiaomao got up, he washed up briefly, and then started to burn a large pot with firewood. The breakfast was big pancakes made of corn and flour, and he cooked porridge.

Su Meili was cleaning the inside and outside of the house with a broom. Seeing that Xiaomao had cut shredded cabbage, radish, cucumbers and tomatoes, she was about to sprinkle salt, vinegar and sugar to mix it together. Su Meili was in a hurry:

"You don't know how to live, you don't mix cold dishes during the New Year? You can get some pickles! There is only so little in my sugar bowl, and I have to save it for the Chinese New Year stew!"

Xiao Mao was concentrating on thinking about his "serious business", when he was startled suddenly by Su Meili's loud voice.

Xiao Mao blushed and waved his hands: "Yes, I'm sorry, ma'am. I'll make pickles right now, put more, more salt."

Xiao Mao has to live frugally as soon as he comes home, he is really not used to it.

After all, she cooked several meals a day for Xia Tian and Ye Boxuan for more than two months. She really wanted to eat whatever she wanted, not to mention saving raw materials, as long as they liked and wanted to eat, they could fry it.

Xiaomao reminded herself that she had returned home, not the days when she was talking and laughing with her younger sister in the capital. The aunt was used to living a hard life, so she had to change back to the original one, or the relationship that had been established with great difficulty would easily return to the beginning .

She knew that she had promised to write a long letter before she left, but she didn't do it, and she didn't even make it clear when she got home after staying for so long.

It's not that I don't want to say it, it's that I have something to hide.

Take a look at the bubbling at the corner of the aunt's mouth, she said that the whole family has to worry about it, it's better to say that she is playful.

Su Meili glanced at Xiao Mao sideways, and looked at Xiao Mao's round face that had gained weight a few times, and she couldn't help feeling angry.

How careless, one by one, she urged Dongzi to write three letters in more than two months, one for her daughter and one for Xiaomao, all of them seemed to have never seen the letter, and they really received it when they asked, and they said Kyoto is coming.

Listen, she was going to be mad at her, the three letters didn't even splash, so Zhao Tiezhu was only asked to come and give a message.

Her daughter has a big belly and is said to be twins. Both she and Aiguo are happy!
I can't scold my daughter for not being careless at this time, but you Xiaomao is a good person, I have to clean up your memory!
It's a big girl who has been away for a few months. I don't know if the family is worried about it?The money I brought you is for my niece. It’s good to inquire about it. I didn’t spend a penny. I bought a bunch when I got home. If you said you didn’t spend it, you brought it back. Who told you to spend that money to buy things?What kind of family is our family with good conditions?

The old lady who heard the movement in the room sighed.

You said that there is nothing at home, so come back late?Besides, he didn't go out to play, but went to take care of your daughter?What's wrong with letting someone have a child with no father or mother?Enough to bully people!

The old lady understands that Su Meili still has a little bit of concern about Xiaomao not hearing from her, but if she is concerned, just talk well?After she understands, she can't do that!Besides, it is justifiable to delay returning to my own home for a day. Where is the root of the family? Go back and see what happened to the old house?
The old lady didn't understand what sorrow meant, but she was old enough to always remind herself that no matter which son's family she was in for the elderly, no matter how uncomfortable she was, if she couldn't learn how to pretend to be deaf and dumb, no one would let her go.

Pulling a few children, reluctant to eat and drink, when you get old, you have to live by your face.

Not to mention the village, even the whole town, unless there are widows and widows, all the old men and women spend their old age in this way, and it would be good if there is no old couple living alone in their minds.

Xia Dong pushed the door in from the outside, and the half-grown man became a little more masculine. He sat on the bench, stuffed some firewood into the stove, and asked without raising his head:
"Miss Xiaomao, my mother scolded you again? It's really not possible, you should run away from home."

Xiao Mao has often been reprimanded for no reason these two days, but she is still used to it.

Didn't he treat her like this at first?At that time, she could improve the relationship by bearing silently by herself, so what was she afraid of?Now she is not afraid of the aunt scolding her anymore, she has Xia Qiu and Xia Tian's support.

Xiao Mao listened to Xia Dong's children's words, kicked the small bench where Xia Dong was sitting, pretended to be serious and said with a smile:

"Who did you learn to run away from home? Just let me learn this for you to study? The uncle beat you, why didn't you run away?"

Xia Dong thought for a while, yes, my dad often whipped me with the soles of his shoes, didn't I still not leave?

He replied vaguely: "I should starve to death after going out. I won't starve to death until tomorrow." Then he sighed, with a tangled expression and a melancholy tone:
"Hey! Miss Mao, you shouldn't buy me fruit skin or something, or my mother can treat you better. She is so stingy! I know her too well! I can't see you buying this. I understand it all , why are you so stupid?"

Just as Xiao Mao was about to knock Xia Dong on the head, the door of the outer room was pushed open again, and Xia Aiguo's rain-drenched hair stood up and entered the room.

Xia Aiguo wiped his head and face with a towel, and took out a registered letter from his pocket:

"It was from my elder brother just now, and a letter from our daughter."

"Take it apart and read it quickly. Father, mother, sweet letter!"

……

"Grandpa, grandma, father, mother, I didn't tell you immediately because I was afraid that you would be worried. Now he is completely healed, and my situation has stabilized. Really, I won't lie to you this time...

Thanks to the company of my sister-in-law for more than two months, I didn’t have the energy to do anything at that time. She ran between the hospital and the house, trying everything to get me to eat...

Mother, I can guess that you will blame her.Really, please treat my sister-in-law better, she is a treasure of our Xia family..."

The belated and honest letter from home rescued Yu Xiaomao from being in dire straits.

Su Meili listened to the crimes suffered in the early days of Xia Tian, ​​and hated how she could have fallen ill all of a sudden. She felt sorry for her daughter and was crying. Xiao Mao looked at the silent people in the room:

"Auntie, are you ready for dinner?"
