Chapter 123 My Mom Spends the House

Damao had a bicycle, so he could only catch up with him on that.

Tiedan's physical fitness is really not to be underestimated.

Tong Yan is an adult, and he works in the fields all year round to earn work points, so he can run very fast. Tiedan not only did not fall behind, but even had the momentum to surpass him.

They ran to Xie's house in one breath.

Tong Yan stood at the door and panted heavily, saying, "Okay, you run fast with a smile!"

"Of course!" Tiedan gave people a feeling of ease, "I exercise with my dad every morning, and it's not in vain. It's just that after coming here, there is no one to guide us to exercise."

Tong Yan asked in surprise: "Do you still need guidance?"

"Of course!"

When Tiedan saw Damao riding his bike towards them, he said, "Look at Damao, he looks so gentle and polite. You are no match for him."

"No way?" Tong Yan didn't believe it.

Xiao Mao happened to be there with Xiao Wu and Xiao Liu. When he heard this, he said, "Don't talk about my brother. You can't beat my mother even if you are my mother."

Tong Yan looked at Jing Xian, who had a slender figure and looked very weak, and said, "You guys, don't try to scare me here. With my sister, I can easily beat ten or even a hundred people."

"Mom, my uncle said that he can beat a hundred of you." Xiao Mao called Jing Xian as soon as he opened his mouth.

After hearing this, Jing Xian looked at Tong Yan and said, "You can say it, but you must confirm it in person before you say it."

"What are you confirming?" Tong Yan walked up to Jing Xian and stretched out his arms to show off his muscles. "Sister, this is real strength."

"Oh, really?"

Jing Xian grabbed his wrist with lightning speed, and with a little force, Tong Yan's face changed.

"Sister, sister, can you teach me what this move is?" Tong Yan now believed what Tiedan said and looked at Jing Xian with shining eyes.

"As long as you have enough strength and a little ingenuity, you can achieve twice the result with half the effort. Most people can do this." Jing Xian explained to Tong Yan without hiding anything.

After listening to this, Tong Yan thought for a moment, then tried it with his own hand and found that it really worked.

"Sister, who did you learn this from? You're amazing!"

Jing Xian wanted to fool Tong Yan the same way she fooled Shang Nanchen, but she remembered that the old Chinese doctor was hired by Jing Feng. If she said that, Comrade Jing Feng would definitely become suspicious.

There is no way to fool people.

"If you want to learn, just learn from your brother-in-law. Tiedan and the others are learning from your brother-in-law." Having said this, Jing Xian only knew why Tiedan had been looking at her so frequently just now.

She changed the topic and said to Tong Yan: "Get up early tomorrow morning, and when they are running, you should run with them. Then I will teach you."

"Mom, I'm going to call my dad. Do you want to come?" Tiedan achieved his goal and asked Jingxian happily.

He had wanted his mother to teach them Kung Fu for a long time.

Unfortunately, my mother never gave in.

They have only had this opportunity now.

Jing Xian finally remembered what she had forgotten.

She didn't call Shang Nanchen.

"You guys go and call, and then tell your father that I'll call him tomorrow morning." Jing Xian continued to make the roasted whole lamb.

We can't eat this sheep today until after dark.

Before that, have a meal or something.

Tiedan and his group ran out. Tong Yan knew that he could not help much, so he took the initiative to step forward to take care of the child.

With him following her, Jing Xian felt relieved.

While waiting for dinner, several children came back.

Tiedan said sensibly, "Mom, I told my dad, and he said he'll be waiting for your call tomorrow morning."

"Okay, I got it. Go wash your hands and come over to eat."

The meal was very rich.

Many of the dishes were cooked by Mrs. Xie, and some were cooked by Jing Xian.

The sun has set now.

A large table was placed outside, and the adults sat on it.

The kids stood up with their bowls in hand and ate, a little here and a little there, and soon they had finished a lot of rice.

Jingxian doesn't eat much, and she is responsible for feeding two little kids.

Now Xiaowu and Xiaoliu can eat quite a lot.

Since they were able to eat, they drink much less milk.

After dinner, the children went to wash the dishes, and Mrs. Xie stayed with them. Mr. Xie and Comrade Jingfeng were playing chess, and Tong Yan was watching from the side.

After a while, someone sat next to Jingxian.

She glanced at Damao and asked calmly, "What's the matter?"

Da Mao nodded and whispered, "Mom, Xiao Mao and I will stay here tonight."

"I've packed all your things. It doesn't matter if grandma doesn't have any bedding. I'll drive back later and bring them to you. Bring some of your clothes too." Jing Xian didn't think this was a big deal.

It's a good thing that Big Mao and Little Mao just went back to their own home.

Jingxian was happy for the two little guys.

"Thank you, Mom."

Damao finished speaking but didn't leave yet.

Jing Xian raised her eyebrows and asked him, "What's the matter? Is there anything else?"

Damao felt a little embarrassed this time and his voice became much softer.

"Mom, can you help me find some connections to buy some coal? The coal at home is all face. There is not much firewood. I am afraid that my grandparents will have a hard time in winter."

Jing Xian thought it was something serious.

"Is that all? Is there anything else? Tell me all at once." Jing Xian asked.

Damao's eyes turned red when he heard this: "No more."

"If you have anything to say, just tell mom directly, okay? I am the person closest to you in this world, besides your grandpa, grandma and brother." Jing Xian didn't say anything else.

It was enough for her to tell the child that he had someone he could rely on.

Damao nodded vigorously.

"The college entrance exam is coming soon. When you are studying at home, if you have any questions, just write them down and come to ask me. Don't feel pressured about the college entrance exam. It was your grandfather who didn't let you take the exam last time. It's not that he doesn't believe in your ability. You know your grandfather's situation. He is old and has many concerns."

Jing Xian felt that among these children, Damao was the most thoughtful and tended to get stuck in trivial matters.

She had always wanted to have a good chat with this kid, but she never had the chance. Today, this kid took the initiative to find her, so Jing Xian naturally would not miss this opportunity.

"If you want to stay in the capital, there are plenty of schools in the capital. If you want to go to the top institution, then go and study. No matter which university you get into, it will be your mother's pride."

Damao wiped his tears and nodded continuously.

Jing Xian handed him the handkerchief: "Okay, wash your face after you wipe it, don't let grandpa and grandma see it. Otherwise, grandpa and grandma will be worried. Play with your brothers and sisters for a while, and then we will eat roasted whole lamb."

Damao got up and left.

Jingxian called Tiedan over.

"Tiedan, come here!"

"Mom, what's the matter?" Tiedan ran to Jingxian's side in an instant.

Jing Xian took out two yuan from her pocket and gave it to him: "Go buy some soda."

"OK!"

Tiedan turned around and ran away.

He walked to the door and called Tong Yan, "Uncle, let's go!"

Fusheng watched his brother leave the house, chased after him and asked, "Brother, where are you guys going?"

"Let's go shopping. Do you want to go?" Fusheng wanted to look after his younger brother and sister, but also wanted to go with them.

Xiao Mao said, "I'll watch, you just go, I'll be back in a while."

"Okay, I'll go!"

Fusheng followed him and ran away.

Xiaowu had no intention of joining in the fun, but Xiaoliu was ready to catch up.

This won't work!

Xiao Mao picked up Xiao Liu and said to Xiao Wu, "Xiao Wu, let me take you with me. Let's go see what mom is doing."

Xiaowu obediently stood up and walked there by himself.

"Tsk!"

Xiaoliu refused and refused to go back.

He kept shouting, "Tsk, tsk!"

"No, I'm not going for a walk! When I go for a walk, I will definitely take you with me. My brothers will be back soon. Just wait and see if you don't believe me." Xiao Mao only talks the most when he is taking care of the children.

If he didn't reason with his younger brother and sister, Xiaoliu would go to heaven.

The whole roasted lamb is finally ready!

Mr. Xie even connected an electric light in the yard.

Da Mao glanced at the lamp, and followed Grandpa Xie to put things away. He said, "Grandpa, I'll do it."

Grandpa Xie looked at his eldest grandson with satisfaction and said nothing.

Wait until you finish your meal.

Jingxian and her family went back.

Big Fur and Little Fur stay at home.

Grandpa Xie called his two grandsons over, and Grandma Xie opened the cabinet and took out a cloth bag. The cloth bag was very small, and the old lady opened it and found another layer inside. After opening several layers, she found a handkerchief inside.

After the handcuffs were opened, Da Mao and Xiao Mao could see clearly what was inside.

"This money was saved by your grandmother and I. We thought that you two brothers would definitely need it in the future. All the money your grandmother and I have since we came back, except for the money we usually spend, is now in this."

Grandpa Xie said: "Da Mao, our family is not as good as before, but we are not that poor. Don't think too much, no matter what university you get into, grandpa will support you. The same goes for Xiao Mao, you two brothers should not feel any pressure, grandpa and grandma can still make money and can still support you two brothers."

Xiao Mao glanced at Da Mao, and the two brothers said nothing. They took out their passbooks and handed them to their grandfather in tacit understanding.

Mr. Xie asked, "What is this?"

He opened it and was stunned.

Mrs. Xie came over and asked, "What is this? Why are you silent?"

After seeing the money on the passbook, he immediately looked at his two grandsons sternly and asked, "Where did this passbook come from?"

"My mother gave it to me," Xiao Mao explained. "My mother said that 700 yuan was my father's pension. There was also 80 yuan for the last month's salary. The rest of the money was contributed by my comrades-in-arms, 1,500 yuan. My father was a martyr, and as orphans of a martyr, my brother and I received 20 yuan each month. My mother saved all of this money. She and my father contributed 1,500 yuan to us. The money was divided into two passbooks a few days later, and my mother gave the passbooks to both of us after they were completed."

Mrs. Xie remained silent for a long time.

"You two brothers have met a good person."

Mr. Xie slowly said, "You two brothers should remember the kindness of their family in the future. You will be their biological sons in the future, and you should take care of them until the end of their lives. Do you understand?"

Damao said: "Grandpa, don't worry!"

"Grandpa, I want to make a lot of money in the future." Xiao Mao is the kind of person who never stops talking until he shocks people.

When Mr. Xie heard this, he frowned and said, "What's the point of making so much money?"

"My mother is a spendthrift daughter-in-law." Xiao Mao met his grandfather's questioning eyes and said, "The whole military region knows about this!"
