After seeing off the villagers and Wang Weiguo, Su Xia began to calculate the income from this trip. Now there was only one mission pig left in the pigpen.

The total cost of these two pieces is 636 yuan, still at 90 cents a piece, the total is 572.4 yuan. Minus 300 coal briquettes, there is 542.4 yuan left.

Su Xia happily counted the money twice, and finally put it all in the money box, plus the 30 yuan that the villagers bought last time.

There is already 1,342 yuan in the purse.

"Mom, is this all our money?" Dabao had been watching Su Xia counting the money. It was the first time he had seen so much money.

"Of course. These two pigs were sold for more than 500 yuan. All my hard work this year was not in vain."

Dabao was very excited. In his little head, he knew that everything in the house was bought with money.

"Mom, when will Dad come back?"

"Why, do you miss your dad?"

"When Dad comes back, can he bring back money?"

Su Xia...

Why do I feel a little sorry for the man?

"I came back during the Chinese New Year. Why don't you ask?"

"Okay, Mom, does Dad know about my brother's death?"

Su Xia turned to look at the kid who asked so many questions today, "Why do you ask that?"

Dabao blinked his big eyes and said, "No, I didn't even ask Dad about having a younger brother. I feel a little embarrassed."

Su Xia...

He looked at the ignorant kid speechlessly and roared helplessly, "Go play somewhere else by yourself. Did your dad already know about this?"

"Ah? Mom, how did Dad know? He's so far away?"

…

Su Xia looked at Dabao angrily, wishing she could spank him. How could she explain to a three-year-old child that his parents must know when his younger brother arrived?

"Go out and play. Wait for your father to come back and ask yourself."

After saying that, he closed the door and locked Dabao outside.

The little cub looked at the closed door in bewilderment, not knowing why his mother was angry. He had no choice but to run and release the three geese by himself.

After playing the game of chase, Su Xia was in the bedroom. After a while, she heard, "Big goose, second goose, third goose, come and chase me!"

"Geese, geese, geese..."

Su Xia breathed a sigh of relief and touched her red cheeks, "You bastard, it's all your fault!"

Far away at the base, Chen Jianguo suddenly sneezed several times in succession.

Ah, sneeze, sneeze...

"Old Chen, why did you suddenly start sneezing?"

"Eh? Does your wife miss you?"

"roll……"

Chen Jianguo rolled his eyes at Ding Xueming.

“꾿…

Just pretend, how long can you keep pretending?"

Chen Jianguo continued to look at the drawings in his hand and had no time to pay attention to him. His wife missed him, so didn't he miss her?

Every night I put the photo of our family of four next to my pillow, otherwise I can't fall asleep.

Why……

I don’t know when it will end?

Ding Xueming couldn't bear to see him like this. For people like them who are away from home all year round, the ones they feel most sorry for are their wives and children.

"By the way, Lao Chen, is my sister-in-law pregnant again?"

Chen Jianguo also began to smile when he heard this, thinking of the letter from his wife, which was full of insults to him, hehe...

Ding Xueming looked at his brother who had suddenly become stupid and curled his lips in disgust.

But I'm still envious!

"Look at you, how can you be so amazing? My sister-in-law has only been here for a few days and she's already pregnant, and she has two children too. You can even call you a beast!"

Chen Jianguo raised his eyebrows but did not deny it.

"But Lao Chen, my sister-in-law is pregnant, which makes the neighbor Chen Gong envious."

Sizzle…

Ding Xueming recalled the gloomy expression on Shen Tian's face when everyone mentioned the news that Lao Chen's wife was pregnant.

Hearing this, Chen Jianguo recalled the gossips about his wife at that time, and suddenly felt a little sympathetic towards Shen Gong. How could a college student with a good family background end up with such a wife?

Why……

It’s better to be yourself Xia Xia!

At home, Su Xia still doesn't know about Chen Jianguo's situation. The news of her pregnancy is no longer a secret. If she knew, she would definitely kill the man, right?

Doesn't this clearly tell everyone that during the days she was gone, neither of them behaved well, and there were two children.

Ahhhh…

Su Xia planned to take advantage of the time when Dabao went to the old house to play with Liuya and Goudan to wash all the bed sheets, quilt covers, clothes and pants in the house in the washing machine.

Watching the washing machine cleaning process, Su Xia put on a dirty hat and an apron and began to clean the cobwebs in every corner of the house. She swept all the walls and saw that the ceiling had turned gray.

I don't know when the county will have suspended ceiling materials.

The walls are in good condition, with only a slight yellowing from the white paint, but the floor has become cement.

Tiles are just something you can think of. Bricks can be considered, but they are no different from cement.

Clean all three bedrooms and the living room.

In the east bedroom, the kang was wiped and cleaned again. After it was completely dry, a mattress was laid on it, and the quilt and pillow were folded and placed aside.

The kang cabinet inside was filled with Niuniu’s personal belongings.

There is a kang table next to the mattress.

One side of the wardrobe is filled with the clothes that Niu Niu is wearing now, and the other side is filled with cotton, clothes, pants, shoes, wool, etc. stored at home.

As for the sewing machine, move it to the bedroom.

Now Niu Niu will be nineteen years old during the Chinese New Year, and she should have slept by herself a long time ago, but Chen Jianguo is not here, so the three of them sleep in one bedroom, and it's almost bursting.

Clean it up today and sleep here tonight.

I was busy for two hours before I washed all the clothes, spun them dry, and hung them out to dry in the living room.

At this time, Dabao also ran in.

"My Lady...

Am I hungry?" I heard the voice coming first, but the person didn't arrive yet.

Su Xia just hopes to grow up quickly, otherwise she will have to eat every day.

Su Xia looked at her watch. It was two o'clock in the afternoon. Niu Niu should have finished the exam by this time.

"Let's go, let's go pick up my sister and cook after we come back, okay?"

When Dabao heard this, his eyes lit up and he nodded immediately.

The mother and daughter closed the door, locked it, and walked slowly in the middle of the village.

Dabao was running around, with a green hat and a green tail on his head that kept swinging back and forth.

The corner of Su Xia's mouth twitched. She really didn't want to admit that this thing came out of her stomach.

"Hey! Su girl, where are you going?"

Dabao quickly replied: "Grandma Li, let's go pick up my sister!"

Su Xia looked at the community leader Dabao and followed him with peace of mind.

"Oh, you're so big that you can even pick someone up?"

"That's a must!" said the cocky Dabao.

Aunt Li was so amused that she was beyond measure.

Su Xia followed behind and watched the whole process of a three-year-old social cow Dabao's social relationship.

"Hello, Grandpa Li, let's go pick up my sister."

"Hello, Grandma Zhao!"

"Hello, uncle!"

"Hello, Auntie!"

"Hello, uncle!"

Others: "Hey, Dabao is out. When will he come to play at home?"

"Dabao, come to our house and play when you are free. Do you think your little brother is always thinking about you?"

"Wow……

Really, tell him to come to my house when he has time, my house is warm."

…

In this way, Su Xia followed behind and finally arrived at the school gate. Seeing Dabao still eager to see more, Su Xia suddenly asked, "Dabao, are you thirsty?"

"Ah?" Dabao looked at Su Xia in confusion.

Then he licked his dry lips and said, "Mom, I feel a little thirsty!"

…

Su Xia nodded in understanding. It would be strange if she wasn't thirsty.

"Wait a minute, and go home after Niuniu comes out."

After waiting for five minutes, the children came out one after another. Su Xia saw that there were less than thirty students.

The old house alone takes up 5 places, hey...

And most of them are boys.

After the students came out, they all noticed Su Xia, but they were too embarrassed to say hello.

Dabao ran straight to the crowd and walked to Niu Niu's side: "Sister, I'm here to pick you up!"

Niuniu was startled, and then looked at Dabao in disbelief: "Why are you here?"

"I……"

"Niuniu, your aunt is here too!" Wu Ya pulled Niuniu's clothes and pointed at Su Xia.

Then Niu Niu also saw Su Xia in the crowd and happily rushed to Su Xia.

"Mom, are you here to pick me up?"

Su Xia nodded and looked at the excited Niuniu, "Let's go. By the way, where's Dabao?"

"Ah?" The excited Niuniu was stunned.

Then he looked back anxiously.

At this time, Dabao also walked up to Su Xia, pouted, and looked at Niuniu: "Sister, why did you abandon me?"

"that……

Are you sorry?" Niuniu was a little embarrassed. She was so excited to see her mother that she forgot about it.

The other students looked at Niuniu with envy and had nightmares that their parents wouldn't pick them up.

Afterwards, Su Xia took Niuniu, Dabao, and the five golden flowers in the old house and walked home leisurely. As for the children, they ran around excitedly because they would not go to school starting tomorrow.
