Born in the 60s, Reincarnated as a Little Kid

In her previous life, Li Mingxi was an orphan. She encountered a car accident on her way home from work and was reborn into the 1960s, becoming the most beloved granddaughter of the Old Li family.<...

Chapter 9 Visiting Relatives

As soon as they entered the east room, Niu Cuihua arranged for Old Man Li to start working: "Old man, we have to hide this thing well. If someone finds out, it will be a big trouble."

Old man Li looked at his wife helplessly and said, "Need you to tell me? I'm just trying to figure it out."

"How about we put it under the cabinet? I remember that this cabinet was originally made detachable. We can remove the bottom wooden board, dig a hole and hide the wooden box. How about that?" Niu Cuihua looked at Old Man Li with anticipation.

"This is a good idea," the two of them said and did it. They worked for most of the night and finally put the things away.

After finishing their work, the two of them lay down on the kang and chatted. In the darkness, Niu Cuihua said excitedly: "Old man, why did our Xiaoxi reincarnate into our family? It must be because our family is kind."

Old man Li said perfunctorily: "Well, you are right, our family is kind, so Xiaoxi is here to repay the favor."

Although he said this, he didn't agree with Niu Cuihua's idea at all. Besides, who knows whether it will be good or bad when encountering such evil things. No matter what, he should fight against the enemy with his troops and cover the water with earth. He can talk about the future later.

Then he said, "Old woman, go to sleep quickly. You have to get up early tomorrow to visit every household to wish them a happy new year."

In the second half of the night, when the people of the Dongfeng Brigade fell asleep, snowflakes began to float in the sky. They were very small at first, but after a while they became the size of goose feathers, covering the sky and drifting silently with the wind, drifting into thousands of homes and drifting to the endless fields.

On this quiet snowy night, a small building in a military compound in Beijing was not peaceful. "Xiao Jing has a fever," the nanny Zhang Ma walked out of the house and shouted upstairs.

"Fever? We need to take you to the hospital immediately," Old Master Huo hurried out of the bedroom when he heard that his grandson had a fever. Before he finished speaking, he saw his second son Huo Yanqing coming out of the house, buttoning his clothes as he walked, and hurried down the stairs.

He rushed into the house, and was so anxious that he didn't have time to dress the child. He picked up the child along with the quilt and walked out of the house towards the car in the yard.

Seeing his son's anxious expression, Mr. Huo was afraid something might happen and hurriedly said, "Wait for your eldest brother and let him go with you."

"Yes, second child, wait for me," Huo Yannian just came out of the bedroom and rushed to the yard without any nonsense. Gu Yanqing sat in the back seat without saying anything and then held the child in his arms.

Huo Yannian started the car after seeing his second son was seated. Due to the snow and slippery roads, it took an hour for the car to arrive at the hospital.

As soon as he entered the hospital, Huo Yanqing shouted for a doctor. Coincidentally, there was a doctor on night shift in the hospital, who quickly put up an IV drip. Gu Yanqing stayed with the child until dawn. The doctor came to see the child and said that the fever had subsided. He then prescribed some medicine and sent them home.

When they returned home, the whole family was sitting in the living room waiting. "Is the child's fever gone?" asked Mr. Huo.

"It's gone away, but the doctor said I still need to be careful," Huo Yanqing replied after putting the child in the bedroom.

When he heard that the child's fever had subsided, Mr. Huo felt relieved.

After Huo Yanqing found a stool and sat down, he asked his nephew, "Xiaohao, what happened yesterday afternoon? Did someone bully Xiaojing?"

Huo Haochen, who was sitting in the corner, looked at his second uncle with an uneasy look on his face, then slowly lowered his head: "Originally, Xiaoyi and I were playing with Xiaojing, and then Ding Yichang rushed out with a few people. As soon as they came, they said Xiaojing was a mute and called him a fool. Xiaoyi and I were so angry that we went up to beat them up and didn't look after Xiaojing. Then Xiaojing was pushed by Ding Yichang. After we came back, we were afraid that my father would beat us, so we didn't dare to say anything. Who knew that Xiaojing would have a fever that night? I'm sorry, second uncle, I didn't mean it."

Huo Haochen started crying as he spoke, and Huo Yichen, who was standing next to him, started crying too when he saw his elder brother crying.

Looking at his two nephews, Huo Yanqing knew that they did not do it on purpose, so he said, "This is just one time, and it will not happen again."

Old Master Huo, who was sitting on the sofa, also said, "If you have a fight in the future, you must tell the adults and don't hide it, especially since Xiao Jing is not in good health and can't stand it."

"I understand, Grandpa," Huo Haochen and Huo Yichen said in unison.

What happened in Beijing had nothing to do with the Li family. Instead, the fact that it was snowing made everyone more excited.

Before dawn, Li Mingxi, who was still sleeping, heard his aunt shouting in the yard that it was snowing.

For a moment, the entire Li family, and indeed the entire Hongqi Commune, was filled with laughter and joy. It had snowed, and there was hope. Even in the mornings, when greeting each other for the New Year, everyone rushed to tell each other that it had snowed, and that the next year would surely be a good harvest.

So at noon, after Li Mingxi finished enjoying his delicious food, he saw his silly father coming into the house with two balls of snow in his hands.

Li Aiguo placed the snowballs in a large bowl, then walked over to her with the bowl in hand. "Girl, look, this is snow." Li Mingxi looked at her silly father speechlessly, looking up at the sky. Why did he bring the snow in for her to see? Couldn't he just take her out? She also wanted to see the snowy scene outside.

So Li Mingxi reached out to grab the snow, "Girl, don't touch this, it's too cold," Li Aiguo said as he took the large bowl and put it on the table.

"Look at you, you asked me to recognize the snow, and I wanted to take it to see, but you wouldn't let me. It's really annoying, isn't it, Xiaoxi?"

Zhang Huilan said this while shaking Li Mingxi. "Let's not play with your dad anymore, let's play by ourselves," and then she put Li Mingxi on the bed.

Li Aiguo replied with an innocent look: "No, I was wrong, is that not okay? Come and let me hug our eldest daughter."

Zhang Huilan looked at her anxious husband and said, "No, I know you want to take her out for a look, but I really can't. It's so cold now. What if she gets frozen? What will we do then?"

When Li Aiguo heard what his wife said, he thought about it and gave up his inner thoughts, sitting on the kang and chatting with her. Li Mingxi looked at his loving parents and couldn't help but wonder when he could leave the house. It was not easy to live in this small room and be fed dog food by his parents every day!

Time quickly arrived at the second day of the Chinese New Year, which was the day when the daughter returned to her parents' home. This year, Zhang Huilan had just given birth and could not visit relatives, so Niu Cuihua asked Li Aiguo to take the things and go to her parents' home alone early in the morning, and then go to her daughter-in-law and mother-in-law's home in the middle of the morning.

After breakfast in the morning, Liu Zhaodi remembered that she hadn't seen her fourth brother Li Aiguo all morning. She thought he hadn't gotten up yet, so she deliberately asked him a question.

"Mom, haven't my fourth brother and his wife gotten up yet? They are so lazy. Don't they know they are busy visiting relatives today? They still ask you to bring them food. You are so unfilial!" As he said this, he deliberately raised his eyes and glanced at the west room.

"I'm bringing them food, I'm happy to do so, what's it to you? Besides, the fourth child got up early and left early in the morning. Do you think they are all like you, too bored to even stare at others all day long?"

At this point, Niu Cuihua glared at Liu Zhaodi fiercely, "Liu Zhaodi, I'm telling you, I don't want to scold you these days, so don't cause trouble for me every day."

"After dinner, hurry up and pack up to visit your relatives. Everything is ready for you. One basket for each family."
