Chapter 21 Back to Mother's Home

"Grandma!" Before Kou Xi entered the house, he saw grandma who was tending the vegetable garden by the courtyard wall.Excitedly walked over, with tears rolling in the corners of his eyes.

"Kou Xi?" Mrs. Kou was very excited when she saw her granddaughter, and ran out of the vegetable garden with her waist bent.

The grandparents and grandsons were so excited to meet again as if they hadn't seen each other for decades.

Kou Xi opened the door and hugged grandma in her arms.Mouth flattened and howled.Hearing the crying, Grandpa Kou ran out while pulling on his shoes.He asked nervously: "What's the matter? What's the matter? Did the old Huo's family bully you?"

"Impossible!" Grandma Kou stared at her old man with an unfazed look on her face, "This is the first time the child has been out of the house for such a long time, and he must be feeling very upset."

Grandma Kou led her granddaughter into the house, and Grandpa Kou was behind him carrying the big bag that Kou Xi was carrying.

"What is it, so heavy!" Putting the package on the kang, Kou Xi rubbed his eyes and broke into a smile.Nestling in grandma's arms and acting like a baby: "Marriage is not fun at all, I want to go home."

Grandma Kou patted her on the back dotingly: "When I'm a child, I just want to play. Marriage is for fun!"

As he spoke, he pulled Kou Xi up and looked him up and down carefully.Finally came to a conclusion: "My eldest grandson has lost weight!"

Kou Xi smiled and said: "I used to be puffy, but now I'm at work. I'm stronger after exercising!"

Grandpa Kou nodded approvingly and said, "Well, I think you're talking a lot now. It looks like you've made a lot of progress. It seems that going to work is still a lot of training!"

Grandma Kou complained a bit: "I would have let you go to work if I knew it earlier, maybe I would be able to marry better in the future!"

"Tsk" Grandpa Kou was dissatisfied: "You old woman, don't talk nonsense!"

Kou Xi hurriedly interrupted, reached out and turned out the package on the kang: "It's my first time earning money, and I bought these with my first month's salary. I honor you."

Grandpa Kou couldn't hide the smile lines on his happy face, and he kept groping for canned food and pastries: "Oh, my eldest granddaughter is filial. It's okay, she's promising!"

The old lady Kou also had a proud face: "You used to be naughty, and I wouldn't like it when anyone said it. They all said, 'Oh, you can't ignore a child without a mother', 'Your family Kou Xi is too willful, you spoil her too much. It's gone'." The old lady behaved like a model, curled her lips and rolled her eyeballs to the back of her sockets.He straightened his waist and said with a high air: "Now let those people come and see, whose grandchildren are filial to them so many good things?"

Mr. Kou put all his things under the TV cabinet, pulled his shoes and looked at Kou Xi with a curious face: "Girl, how many days are you staying at home?"

Kou Xi smiled and said: "I took two days off, and I will stay for three days today, tomorrow, and the day after tomorrow. Get up early and go back by car, get off the car and go straight to work!"

"That's pretty good!" Grandma Kou pinched Kou Xi's little face: "Oh, look, you're so skinny you're out of shape. Just wait, I'll make you something delicious."

Kou Xi didn't stop the old lady, she could understand how the old man expressed his heart.

The old lady was busy in the kitchen, and Kou Xi squatted in front of the stove to burn firewood for her.While burning firewood, he told the old lady interesting stories about going to work, and he never talked about the bad things that happened at his husband's house.

Seeing her like this, Mrs. Kou couldn't help asking: "Is your in-law's family treating you well? Did they bully you?"

Kou Xi tilted his head and thought for a long time, and said seriously: "I usually go back to the house to wash and sleep after get off work, and I don't have much contact with there. There is no contradiction!"

The old lady was in a hurry: Then, don't you usually work for your mother-in-law? "

Kou Xi looked innocent: "I wake up late in the morning, grab a bite of food and go to work. I bring a meal at noon to deal with it, and I cook it myself when I go home at night. I don't like the food they cook. I eat it in my own room. There is a kitchen. If I want to eat noodles, I roll them myself, and if I want to fry a dish, I cook them myself.”

"Your mother-in-law didn't tell you?" The old lady couldn't believe it, and she didn't expect her honest granddaughter to be so independent.

"I don't know if it counts on me or not. Anyway, I didn't mention me in person, and I won't stay in their house." Kou Xi looked like a wayward little girl: "I earn money by myself, and I don't eat their food. Don’t drink theirs. I’ll make whatever I want to eat, so why not be dissatisfied!”

This is also the reason why Kou Dewang arranged a job for his daughter in the first place, insisting that a girl will not be looked down upon by her husband's family if she has a stable income.

Seeing the suspicious look on Grandma's face, Kou Xi chuckled: "Let me tell you, I still have a sister-in-law. Grandma, let me tell you, she seems like a big fool."

Grandma Kou looked at Kou Xi helplessly, and said with a smile: "You, don't always laugh at others. Get along well with your sister-in-law!"

"What I said is true. She is always scolded for saying the wrong thing." Kou Xi thought for a while and added: "Yesterday she was fighting with me, and I made me go back with a few words."

The old lady Kou was taken aback, turned around and asked eagerly, "Did she fight with you? Did she hurt you?" Kou Xi pulled away the old lady's pair of withered old hands that kept checking her body.

He said softly: "We didn't fight, she said we wanted to separate. Huo An gave me more gifts than Huo Lu gave her, and I asked my father-in-law to make up for it. She also said that my dowry belongs to the Huo family , When we separated, we were one and half. Can I get used to her when you say such stupid things? At that time, I just went back with a few words, and my father-in-law also scolded her. "

Mrs. Kou breathed a sigh of relief, and felt that Gao Liman was surprisingly stupid: "There really is such a child? Hey, what did you eat to grow up? There are those little calculations in my heart, and I can really say it out of my mouth." ?”

Kou Xi laughed and quacked: "Yes, yes, that's why I said she seems stupid, and if she is not stupid, she is also lacking in heart!"

The old lady made Kou Xi her favorite roasted beans and stewed pork ribs.When eating, the old couple sat together and did not eat, but stared at Kou Xi to eat.While picking up vegetables for her, he told her: "Eat more meat, eat more meat."

"Your grandfather bought this at the purchasing station. He said that if you don't come back, your father will send it to you. Unexpectedly, you really came back!" The old lady stared at Kou Xi lovingly, Kou Xi held back the tears that were about to burst into his eyes.

Resisting a deep breath, he said with a smile, "I'm really not greedy for meat. I want to eat the pickles pickled in my milk. When I go back, I will bring a canned bottle. I usually eat more at lunchtime." it is good."

The old lady Kou got up quickly, busy searching through boxes and cabinets to find cans and bottles for pickles.Kou Xi pulled the old lady back to the dinner table: "I'm not in a hurry to leave, why are you in a hurry!"

Mr. Kou nodded: "What else do you want, you tell your grandma. The family will prepare it for you."

He looked very happy: "I heard that you don't eat in the same pot with your mother-in-law now?"

Kou Xi nodded: "I don't want to eat with them, I will cook for myself when I get home from get off work."

The old man's face fell at that time: "What do you think, how can the whole family live like this?"
