farmer's daughter

Chapter 8 Don't worry, there is a father.

Chapter 8 Don't worry, dad is here.

"Look, my sister is done. You can play with her in the future. You have to help your mother take care of your younger sister. My mother also takes care of your younger brother. You are the eldest brother in our family. You have to take good care of your younger siblings."

"Well, Dad, I won't be like the big brother. The big brother always bullies Sister Cao'er and the others. Last time I saw the big brother robbed Sister Cao'er's meat and ate it. I laughed after eating it. Sister Cao'er cried. .”

"Chengwen, good boy!"

Shen Sanzhu didn't say anything, but it's enough for the child to understand.Shen Xuejian also felt that this younger brother was not bad, since he knew to take things into his heart at a young age, and knew how to make comparisons.

The three fathers and sons were talking when they heard a duck calling from outside the courtyard:

"Mother, my elder brother is back, and I'm back too."

Seeing his younger brother Chengwen shrink back, he said softly:
"Father, the second brother is back, and he always robs me of things. Last time, the mud house I made with the little soil egg was trampled by us. Another time, the mud house that the soil egg gave to me The peanuts were taken too."

Xue Jian could tell that the younger brother was a little afraid of the second elder brother.It seems that the second brother is not a kind person.I'm afraid it's just a bastard or something.

Shen Sanzhu said this time:
"Next time when dad is not around, you stay away from him and watch him go away to play. Just tell dad when dad is at home, and dad will take care of him."

Chengwen nodded.

Then I heard the sharp voice of my aunt again in the courtyard:

"Oh, my son, why are you walking so dark? I said I should let your father pick you up. It's not safe to walk on the mountain road after dark. Son, come, mother, see if you fell. ?”

"No, I have my second brother with me. Lord, I'm back, and I have seen you."

Then I heard the proud voice of my aunt again:

"Father, look, only my educated son understands etiquette, and he knows how to salute when he sees his master, unlike those who don't understand anything, Chengzong, you also learn from your brother! Look , my son is different, dad. Ha”

"Mother, a scholar should look like a scholar. How can we compare us scholars with those people?"

"Oh, that's right, my son can still talk. Come, come, come in, I know you're coming back today, but your grandfather has cut two catties of meat. Son, wait a minute, you'll be so hungry, it's you I bought it for you."

"Mother, how can you say that, if you have anything to eat, you should feed the old man first. Lord, come, I will help you in."

Seeing that Shen Xue was in this room and listening to the conversation outside, she felt goosebumps.What kind of scholar is so sour?

Xiao Chengwen snorted and said:

"Every time the elder brother salutes the grandfather like this, he wants to ask the grandfather for money. Last time, the grandfather sold the millet in the family to him for money. Let's see what he sells this time."

Xuejian was a little funny when he heard that, a child who is only a little older will be able to calculate such things.Xue Jian smiled lightly and said:

"Then what do you think Grandpa will sell?"

Chengwen lowered his head.It seems that some want to say but dare not say it.Xuejian asked again:

"Can't figure it out?"

Chengwen looked up at his father standing behind him, then at his sister, and said softly:
"Father, you won't sell your sister, will you?"

Shen Sanzhu was taken aback for a moment, then lightly tapped Chengwen's head and said:

"What nonsense are you talking about? Your sister is my daughter. How could I sell your sister?"

After finishing speaking, he looked straight at his son, then squatted down and said softly:

"Why do you think so, son?"

Even Shen Xuejian was taken aback after hearing what Cheng Wen said.Seller?
Chengwen looked up at his father, and said softly:
"The last time I played peek-a-boo with Tudan, I hid in my aunt's house. I heard my aunt telling a woman that she would sell Sister Yueya and Sister Yuecao to someone else's house to be a girl. She said she was raising a daughter. Useless."

Shen Sanzhu paused and said:

"How long ago? Who did your uncle tell you?"

"It's what happened after my sister got sick. You're gone, my aunt told that daughter-in-law in the village who won't have a son."

Shen Xue didn't even care about Xiao Chengwen's expression, but looking at Shen Sanzhu's expression, she knew that he was not a good person either.Shen Sanzhu may have noticed that Xue Jian was looking at him seriously, and he was afraid that Xue Jian would be frightened.He hurriedly stretched out his arms to hug his daughter and said:
"Don't be afraid, Xue'er. Daddy will never sell you. You are all Daddy's children. Daddy will raise you no matter what. Don't be afraid, I won't let your aunt sell Cao'er and the others. I I know you like your sister Cao'er. Thank you, sister Cao'er, for taking care of you these days. Don't worry, Dad is here."

Just as I was talking, I heard the door of the bamboo fence rang. It was Xiaocao who came in. Xiaocao came and shouted:
"Third Uncle, it's time to eat. Xue'er, wait a minute, I'll bring it in for you later. Third Uncle, take Wenwen to eat. My second sister has gone to serve Third Aunt and Xiaowei."

Shen Sanzhu stood up and picked up his son by the way.Just this action can be seen at a glance.This father really loves his child.

"Xue'er, wait a while and eat well. You need to eat more to recover well. Dad took my younger brother to eat first."

Shen Xuejian nodded and said with a smile:
"Go, Dad, I'm not afraid."

Shen Sanzhu didn't know if it was an illusion, why did he feel that the daughter who woke up this time seemed to be different.Think about whether I haven't seen my daughter for too long.

Shen Sanzhu went out, and after a while Xiaocao came in with a bowl, put it on a small broken table on the kang, and went out again.This time, I brought two bowls of rice, which were real white rice, and it was the first time Xue Jian ate white rice after waking up.

Xiaocao handed the chopsticks to Xuejian and said:
"Hurry up, this is for the two of us, eat more. Come on, I'll give you some more rice."

As Xiaocao said, she rushed the rice from her own bowl to Xuejian's bowl.In fact, there is not much rice in the bowls of the two of them, it is just a mediocre bowl, but just like Xiaocao, Xue's eyes turned red again when she saw it, and said:
"Sister Cao'er. I can't eat so much, you eat."

Xuejian wanted to give Xiaocao back again.But Xiaocao's movements were not as fast as Xiaocao's, which was already physically weak. Xiaocao quickly withdrew the bowl, not giving Xue a chance to see her.Xiaocao turned over the vegetables in the bowl again, and took two pieces of meat for Xuejian.Xue Jian looked at the bowl, although it was reserved for the two of them, there were only three pieces of meat.Everything else is a few dishes.

Xuejian didn't pick up this time.Hold the meat to Xiaocao and say:

"I just recovered from my illness. I can't eat too much oil. One piece is enough for me. Otherwise, I will have diarrhea. Sister Cao'er, you eat."

Xiaocao hurriedly said:

"Eat quickly, grandma said, eat more oily things to grow your body."

The two are pushing back.Hearing the door of the bamboo fence rang, Xiaocao turned pale, and hurriedly covered the meat that Xuejian brought over with rice.
