Chapter 132: Unable to take leave (1 / 1)



Remember in one second [Jiujiu Novels Network

"It's delicious. Mom, your cooking skills are amazing. I also want to eat fried yellow croaker."

Xue Qingdai grabbed the crispy pork strips and ate the freshly fried ones around the pot. The air was filled with the aroma of meat and peppercorns, the crispy sound echoed around her mouth, and her tender fingers were stained with oil.

"Okay." Yang Xiaomin said to her daughter with a smile, looking carefully at her smiling face, she couldn't get enough of it.

It’s good to be happy every day.

After Yang Xiaomin finished laughing, her expression turned ferocious as she walked out. She glared at the third boy who was leaning against the wall of someone else's house smoking.

"Brave Xiaobao back, you little brat. Does your brother-in-law know?"

Xue Yongkang put out his cigarette and trotted a few steps to get rid of the smell of smoke.

Oh, I forgot.

There's no way to say it. Several members of the same family in the village united to beat him up, making it difficult for him to run away.

Besides, he is now a person of some status.

He said sincerely with his peach blossom eyes: "Little sister, you acted like a spoiled child and told me that you missed mom, I... I couldn't refuse. I really don't know the situation at my brother-in-law's place because I have to concentrate on taking care of my little sister."

"My brother-in-law just arrived at the new military region. It's full of talented people and very busy. He probably doesn't have time to come over, so he asked me to take my little sister home because he was afraid she would be bored."

"My little sister loves the hustle and bustle of the city, so it's normal for her to be unable to stay still."

Every sentence sticks to the topic, little sister.

Xue Yongkang thought that if he went to college, the topic of his paper would be his younger sister, and he could write a paper of 30,000 words.

Because Xue Yongkang's analysis was so logical, Yang Xiaomin's momentary hesitation was eliminated one by one because she was standing in her daughter's perspective.

"San'er, what you say had better be true."

Xue Yongkang breathed a sigh of relief. His mother usually said that something bad would happen to that brat, but San'er was safe.

However, it was good that the family members gave a warning when they were dealing with someone.

He changed his clothes before sitting next to Xue Qingdai.

"Don't stink up Xiaobao. You can't quit smoking after being out for so long."

The little concern he showed for his third son was spent on scolding him.

As for the interrogation of the person involved, Xue Qingdai, Yang Xiaomin will not have it.

Her motherly love can ignore everything, although the old saying goes that spoiling a child is like killing him.

But the other members of the Xue family worked very hard.

What's wrong with letting her daughter take a rest?

As an outstanding graduate of a normal school, Yang Xiaomin would post her daughter's passing test paper on the wall at home and praise her repeatedly.

She looked lovingly at her little girl who was eating the crispy meat she had cooked in the yard.

There was only one thing in my mind: Xiaobao missed her.

She wiped away her tears secretly. Who would be willing to let her little girl get married?

The girl nodded and agreed to marry the boy from the Xie family, and the whole family followed her lead.

Although the boy from the Xie family can give his daughter a good life, any woman has no control over her own life after getting married.

Xue Qingdai ate the egg custard and went to take a nap.

It only took four hours to get home by train from the staff quarters. Her eldest brother was notified early to pick her up, so the journey was smooth.

I was afraid that Xie Yan would come to my house. He was a cold and introverted person and would not show any emotion.

Sometimes laughing is not necessarily a good thing.

She just lay down in the quilt, the bright red quilt felt warm.

Xue Qingdai touched the soft white belly, her almond eyes were a little watery. She would not stop crying no matter how hard Xie Yan went crazy.

He also said that he didn't dare touch her too much because of her delicate body, but that was all false.

"Xiaobao, your father came over and said Xie Yan called."

The village is so small that the only place with a telephone is in the cadres’ offices.

Father Xue ran over and said a few words to his wife, then glanced at his little girl who was sleeping soundly.

He took his wife Yang Xiaomin's arm and whispered, "My daughter is sleeping there. Call Xie Yan back later."

Xue Yongkang was secretly observing from the side. His father seemed unaware that his sister ran home without saying a word. Xie Yan was really steady.

If it were any other man, he would not be able to do it. If a woman goes back to her parents' home in anger, she will be scolded.

When Xie Yan received the second call from his father-in-law, his tense nerves relaxed a little, knowing that his wife had returned home.

He really wanted to hear his wife's voice, no matter good or bad, no matter if she scolded him or blamed him.

Even thinking of his...

They had never been apart for so long.

After all, it's hard to say much to two grown men.

"Son-in-law, I'll ask my daughter to call you back when she wakes up." Although Xue's father said this, his daughter is a good sleeper, so let Xie Yan wait.

Xie Yan's heart sank, and he replied softly on the other side of the phone: "Okay, Dad."

Mr. Xue hung up the phone with satisfaction.

Xie Yan returned to his empty home.

There's a big piece missing from my heart.

It turns out that without her, home doesn't feel like home at all, it's just a place where people can live.

There were still four days left before his approved vacation. He twisted his slender fingers, then slowly loosened them.

There was still her faint sweet scent on the quilt.

Every day feels like a year.

Xue Qingdai woke up in the evening and everyone in the family had finished their work and gone home.

Xue Qingdai sat in front of the phone, surrounded by her family members who had not yet eaten, including her father, mother, eldest brother, and third brother.

This is Xue's father's office, a 30-square-meter room, done in an old black cadre style. There is a big red kettle on the floor and a brand new black landline phone on the table that was installed not long ago.

There was also the latest newspaper, on which the news about farmers getting rich was circled and highlighted, with a lot of annotations.

Red document paper, two ballpoint pens, and a fountain pen.

There was a family photo taped to the corner of the table, completely covered with tape.

The voice on the other end of the line was "beeping" and was being transferred. Xue Qingdai was bored and looked at her father's paint-chipped desk and the marks she had made while playing as a child.

Xue Yongkang put his arm around his elder brother Xue Shiyou's shoulders to cultivate their relationship, but Xue Shiyou looked disgusted, with a frown on his face, still thinking about the crops in the field.

It wasn't long before the call went through.

"Daidai..." A deep male voice spread in the limited space. Xie Yan chuckled, "You're not leaving because you're angry with me, are you? It was all my fault that day..."

Xue Qingdai covered the microphone and said, "Hey, Xie Yan, stop talking nonsense."

"Xie Yan~"

She looked around with frightened eyes, and it was obvious that she had done something bad and was afraid of being discovered, so she looked helpless and pitiful.

The Xue family looked at each other in confusion.

"I haven't finished my meal yet. I'll go cook." Yang Xiaomin took the spatula and left.

Xue Chengyi, Xue's father, followed and said, "I'll go help your mother."

The eldest brother Xue Shiyou said, "I'll go heat up some white flour buns and sweet potato steamed buns."

The third brother followed the team closely, "I'll go help the eldest brother."

There was a sound of hurried and messy footsteps. The door of the old office was not closed tightly, and there were four heads surrounding it.

It was very quiet around, as if no one was around...

Xue Qingdai asked in a soft voice: "Brother Yan, have you had dinner?"

"Eat it. The fridge is almost empty."

Wait for her to come back, then go buy groceries together and replenish the supplies.

Xue Qingdai thought of something again, "I'm not angry, I have such a good personality. I just miss home."

Xie Yan's laughter was heard again.

"What are you laughing at? Remember to feed Yanyan a few mouthfuls of leftovers. If you are very busy, I am very familiar with Aunt Li at the third window in the cafeteria. You can give the dog to her."

"Um."

"If Sister Fangfang comes to see me, just tell her that I'm home. There's a letter I wrote to her on my desk."

"Um."

His arrangement...

Xie Yan sat in the dark reception room, his dim eyes lightly closed, holding the photo in his hand, reluctant to hang up the phone.

He listened to her breathing on the phone, lowered his voice and finally spoke his true feelings:

"Be good and stop running around. Wait for me to come back and pick you up."

Xue Qingdai curled her lips and said, "You've been so busy lately, you probably won't be able to take a leave. Third brother will take me home."

As for how long it would take to return, Xue Qingdai did not say.

Having said everything that needed to be said, she hung up the phone neatly.

The shabby wooden door was blown open by the cold wind, and she turned around to see four pairs of surprised eyes.
