Chen Xiaolan was no longer sleepy and couldn't concentrate on reading.
She simply closed the book, turned off the light, got into bed and hugged Chen Xiaohong.
The sudden chill from the quilt made Chen Xiaohong shrink.
She laughed and said, “Why don’t you read?
It’s still early now.”
"I don't want to watch it anymore, I want to be with you.
Sister, are you okay over there? "
Chen Xiaohong's body stiffened and tears slowly fell in the darkness.
"Why do you ask? I'm fine."
Chen Xiaolan herself did not believe this.
She is not young anymore and can understand many things clearly.
The scars on my sister’s body were definitely not caused by falling.
It doesn't look like it.
"Sister, please don't go back tomorrow, okay?
My eldest sister-in-law is in great shape now. A few days ago, she bought frostbite cream for my second brother, brought back some snacks for us, and bought socks for my parents.
If you stay at my house for a few more days, my sister-in-law will definitely not say anything bad about you."
Chen Xiaohong smiled and said, "Why are you so silly? I am already married. How can a married girl always live in her parents' home?"
"But this is your home, too."
These words made Chen Xiaohong's heart stagnate.
Girls, where will you have a home after you get married?
When she came back, her sister-in-law was at home. Her own life at her mother-in-law's house was a mess, and she couldn't come back to disrupt the lives of other people in the family.
There are many things that are beyond our control and beyond our words.
"You are still young and don't understand some things. You will understand them when you grow up.
It’s late, if you don’t want to read, just take a good rest.
Don't think I'm nagging. Just read books when you have time. You should walk out of this mountain like your elder brother and see what's on the other side of the mountain when you have the chance.
Don’t be like my elder sister, who has to stay in this mountain village all her life.”
Her fate has been tied here.
"I understand, sis."
That night, the two sisters each had their own worries and fell asleep very late.
It snowed all night last night. Chen Jianguo peeled a lot of hazelnuts for Tian Wenjun. The more Tian Wenjun ate, the more delicious they tasted. She stopped eating until her mouth became dry.
The two of them struggled for half the night, and Tian Wenjun's waist was almost broken.
She was still asleep early in the morning. Chen Jianguo was well fed and full of energy. He swept the snow in the yard and at the door early in the morning.
Zhang Cuihua cooked millet porridge in the morning. Knowing that Tian Wenjun had woken up, she said at the door, "Wenjun, sleep a little longer and have breakfast before going to sleep. Otherwise, the millet porridge will get cold."
"I know, mom."
Everyone else was up, but Tian Wenjun was still sleeping, and she felt a little embarrassed.
But if you think about it carefully, a family cannot be supported by her alone, and mutual understanding and care are needed to get along for a long time.
Fortunately, the Chen family is a good family and did not ask her to do something she didn't want to do.
Chen Jianguo's voice came from the yard: "Mom, you guys eat first. If she wants to sleep, let her sleep a little longer. It's snowing so heavily, she won't have anything to do if she gets up."
When Tian Wenjun heard this, she smiled and wrapped herself tightly in the quilt.
Zhang Cuihua said: "I'm worried that she will get hungry.
Why does this child eat so little now? Is he feeling sick in the stomach?
Have you taken her to the hospital for a checkup?"
"Mom, she's fine and is in good health now.
The doctor said that she was too fat and unhealthy before, but now she has lost weight and is very healthy. "
Zhang Cuihua was very puzzled.
"What did you say? Isn't this doctor a quack?
It is a blessing to be fat and white. Who says being fat is unhealthy?
This person's medical skills are definitely not good. When you go back, remember to take her to see a reliable doctor."
Chen Jianguo: …
Tian Wenjun laughed so hard in her bed that she almost cried.
This mother-in-law is not only gentle, but also seems a little cute.
Quack, good fellow...hahaha...
Chen Xiaolan went to bed late last night and woke up late in the morning.
She was awakened by the noise in the yard. When she opened her eyes, her sister who was sleeping next to her was gone, and her quilt was neatly folded.
Chen Xiaolan thought of the task assigned by her eldest brother last night, and quickly crawled out of bed, put on her clothes and went downstairs.
The jacket she was wearing was too small, and the sleeves were too short, so the cold wind went into her arms, and she couldn't help shivering.
She quickly braided her hair into two pigtails, quickly washed her face and went to the kitchen.
Thank God, my sister is still here.
Chen Xiaolan secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Chen Xiaohong asked, "Why don't you sleep a little longer?"
"I thought you were gone. I was so scared."
Chen Xiaohong smiled and said, "I can't stay at home for too long."
Zhang Cuihua said, "That's right. Your sister will stay for a few days. You have to go back when it's time to go back, or else your in-laws will gossip about you if you go back too late."
For some reason, Chen Xiaolan felt uncomfortable.
My sister is such a good person, hardworking and virtuous. She shouldn’t live such a life in fear.
Chen Xiaolan turned and left the kitchen. Zhang Cuihua shouted, "What are you doing? Hurry up and eat breakfast. After breakfast, do whatever you want."
"I'm going to the toilet."
Chen Xiaolan left this sentence and went directly to Chen Jianguo's room.
She stood at the door and whispered, "Brother and sister-in-law, can I come in?"
Chen Jianguo was lying on the edge of the kang at this moment, with his hands stretched into the quilt and pressed against the kang to warm them. When he heard his little sister's voice, he quickly pulled his hands out and sat down on the edge of the kang obediently.
Tian Wenjun, who was still lying, wrapped herself tightly.
Chen Jianguo said: "Come in."
As soon as Chen Xiaolan came in, she said mysteriously, "Brother, I'm here to report to you."
Tian Wenjun burst out laughing under the quilt.
This girl is also very cute.
"How about it?"
"Big sister's body is covered with wounds, her calves, back, and waist are all bruised and purple.
I asked her how she got it, and she said she fell accidentally, but it didn’t look like that to me.”
Chen Jianguo's face was gloomy and his brows were furrowed.
"I see. You didn't tell her, did you?"
“No, she didn’t let me tell you, and I said okay.
Brother, the places I see are so serious, there must be more scars in places I can’t see.
My elder sister didn’t let me watch it, but I still forced myself to watch it.”
"I see. We just need to know what's going on. Don't tell our parents about this for now."
Chen Xiaolan nodded affirmatively, and she looked at Tian Wenjun pitifully.
Tian Wenjun looked surprised: "Just tell me what you want to say."
"Sister-in-law, can you let my eldest sister stay at home for a while longer? I always feel like she's worried."
“She can stay as long as she wants.
Xiaolan, remember, this family came first with you and your sister, and then with me.
I know you're showing respect to me by asking me this question.
But next time you should ask your brother first, otherwise others might hear it and think that I am the head of the family and I am making things difficult for you two sisters."
Only then did Chen Xiaolan react.
There was a flash of shock in Chen Jianguo's eyes.
This woman, when she speaks, she cares about her appearance, when she does things, she focuses on the key points, and she has a very high level of ideological awareness.
Being a man is also very easy, and he appreciates it more and more.
Chen Xiaolan was pleasantly surprised: "Sister-in-law, did you agree?"
Chen Jianguo suddenly felt that his sister must have become stupid because of studying too much.
