The next morning, Chen Jianguo left quietly without waking anyone up.

Su Xia was woken up by Erbao. She struggled to wake up and saw Erbao's eye boogers.

She turned her head away in disgust, and just as she was about to get up, she lay down again with a sore body, grimacing hoarsely, cursing the man in her heart.

"Shameless, the child is so big, but he still doesn't know how to control himself." What Su Xia didn't know was that when she cursed the man in her heart, her little face turned red in the white, and then pink in the red. Anyway, it was pink and flowing...

Erbao blinked his big eyes curiously, always feeling that his mother seemed to be unwell somewhere, but he couldn't put his finger on it.

When Su Xia finally got up, half an hour had passed. At this time, Niuniu was already having dinner with her two younger brothers.

Of course she made breakfast. In fact, Chen's mother helped to light the fire, even the coal stove in the living room, so Su Xia lay in bed for another half an hour.

Breakfast is hot steamed buns, leftover vegetables from the previous day, and eggs. It’s all cooked in one pot, which saves trouble.

Su Xia glanced at the dining table and said, "Niuniu, have grandpa and grandma eaten yet?"

"Let's finish eating!" Dabao replied.

Su Xia nodded, yawned, and went to the bathroom to wash up.

Then he simply ate an egg and half a steamed bun, but Su Xia didn't eat anything.

"Mom, where are we going to play today?" Erbao saw his mother finish her meal and ran over to ask expectantly.

Su Xia glanced at him and asked, "Where do you want to go?"

Erbao's eyes lit up and he looked at Dabao behind him first, who gestured hurriedly.

Su Xia.....

In terms of feelings, the second child takes the lead, and the first child stays in the back.

Erbao turned around and said expectantly, "Mom, I want to go ice skating with my brother and Goudan, okay?"

Su Xia did not respond immediately, but looked at Dabao. Dabao was shocked, scratched his head, and explained in a low voice, "Mom, let's go play with our friends in the village."

Su Xiaxu nodded and said, "Go ahead and take care of Erbao."

Dabao nodded excitedly when he heard that. After seeing that, Niu Niu felt that she had nothing to worry about and decided to go with him.

"Mom, I'm watching you."

Su Xia was relieved. "Go ahead, wear more clothes, and just play around."

"Don't worry, Mom!" Dabao assured excitedly.

"Sister and brother, do I need to put on clothes?" Erbao's cry also came over, and he was obviously afraid of being abandoned.

Su Xia shook her head. When she was in the county town, except for the two children of Uncle Liu's family across the street, the others were all quite grown up, and Erbao and Dabao really had no other playmates.

It’s not like back in the village, if we get together, we will definitely form two football teams.

After the children left, Su Xia packed up briefly. There was nothing else to do. She picked up the cotton coat and trousers she had given Liu Ya yesterday and went to the old house.

Seeing Su Xia coming over, Chen's mother hurriedly gave way to her. Su Xia was used to it now, so she went straight to the kang, leaned her back against the quilt, and leisurely put her feet into the warm kang.

Su Xia saw that Chen's mother was mending clothes, but she didn't offer to help. "Mom, do you and Dad have any clothes left?"

After hearing this, Chen's mother nodded and said, "Yes, yes..."

"Go 뎃, you made it, it's still in good condition, I can't wear it all!"

Su Xia looked at Chen's mother. Maybe it was because the room was warm, she was wearing the thermal underwear she gave her, a cotton vest, and thin cotton pants.

The thing in his hand should be Chen's, it looks like a pair of pants, probably torn when he was working.

"Mom, I found some photos of Niu Niu's childhood yesterday and wanted to give them to Liu Ya. Could you help me call her my third brother's sister?"

Upon hearing this, Chen's mother opened the things Su Xia brought, looked at them from front to back, and immediately showed a distressed expression.

Without hesitation, he said, "Why give this good thing to you? Why don't you keep it for yourself?"

Su Xia also knew that cotton was more valuable than food nowadays, and people usually patched it up, not like her.

But Su Xia herself doesn't want to suffer, nor does she want her children to suffer.

"You won't wear it even if you keep it, so give it to Liu Ya first."

Upon hearing this, Chen's mother sighed. They were all her own grandchildren, and she didn't give them to outsiders, so of course she didn't mind.

Originally, I wanted to wait for the eldest to have another child so that the younger one could wear it, but the second baby is almost four years old and there is still no movement from the two.

I wanted to ask, but Chen's mother opened and closed her lips for a long time, and finally shut up and stood up to help call for help.

"Old Third, come here..."

The sound is so loud that it can wake up the birds perched in the trees. If there is snow, the birds on the roof will probably be startled and fall over.

Su Xia's mouth twitched in the room. She always felt that the old lady was angry, but she didn't know why.

After hearing this, Liu Chunxia came out early. When she came over, she found that her mother-in-law seemed to be in a bad mood and did not dare to say a word.

She dared to say hello to Su Xia, and Su Xia handed over the thing in her hand. "This is from Niu Niu when she was a child. If you don't mind, give it to Liu Ya to take back."

Liu Chunxia was stunned for a moment, then suddenly realized that her mother-in-law seemed distressed, but...

Liu Chunxia quickly responded, "I don't mind...I don't mind..."

When I received them, I found that they were all good things. The cotton inside was not knotted or hard. I sighed in my heart that my sister-in-law was so generous.

"Thank you, sister-in-law!"

Su Xia waved her hand and said, "It's okay. No one wears it anyway."

Liu Chunxia was envious. If it were her, she would definitely keep it for the younger one, but her elder brother and sister-in-law really had no shortage of it.

Touching the overalls in her hand, Liu Chunxia had the idea of ​​giving them to her son, but she forgot it in an instant. When her sister-in-law said she was giving them to Liu Ya, she definitely meant it was for someone else. Don't even think about borrowing money from her sister-in-law in the future.

Su Xia watched the people leave before lying comfortably on the bedding.

Mother Chen rolled her eyes and said, "You are a spendthrift. Everyone keeps their money for their children, but you are so kind as to give it back to others?"

Su Xia: "Mom, that's not someone else. You also saw that Liu Ya's ankles were exposed after she was retracted. How much suffering did she suffer in front of the snow child?"

Perhaps because he had suffered from the hardships of girls before, and because of the patriarchal mentality of this era, Su Xia was always kinder to the girls in the old house.

When Mother Chen heard this, she thought of Liu Ya and thought it was indeed the case. She then sighed.

"The two older ones in the family are both studying in the county town. As for the third and fourth children, I'll focus on them first. It's not my parents' fault. If it weren't for the banknotes and cotton coupons you brought this time, I might have had a hard time buying new socks!"

Su Xia did not respond. This was how the times were. In fact, the second and third sons' families were considered to have a lot of money. Aren't there many families in the village who are short of money?

"Also, the second and third sons also want to buy a house in the county town, so things might be a little tight in the future!" Chen's mother continued to nag.

Su Xia knew this, but she also comforted Chen's mother, "Mom, it will be much easier once Daya and the others graduate."

Upon hearing this, Mother Chen raised the corners of her mouth and thought of her granddaughters, although she did not like them when they were young.

But now, who in the village doesn't envy the granddaughters of the Dong family? They are pretty and can study.

Even if I don't have a job in the future, as long as I study hard, my in-laws won't be a big deal.

Take a look at the eldest brother's house. It's because of studying that she and the eldest brother chose him. How comfortable his life is today. He hasn't worked for a day!

Su Xia's back was warmed by the hot kang, and she was so comfortable that she almost dozed off. She had no idea that Chen's mother was criticizing her in her heart.
