Xu Ning was playing with Toffee Candy at home when he heard the laughter of children on the road.
She stood at the door and looked over there. Xu Mo, Sandan, Xiaowang, Chui Zi, and several children from the village were walking towards the stream with baskets and sacks, probably to catch fish.
After a while, several male educated youth also ran over? Now that the spring planting is over, there is not much work in the fields these days, and the people in the Youth League Institute have not gone to work.
Now Niu Niu and Pippi can walk a few steps holding on to the fence.
Tangtang is still a little weak, and it is obvious when compared with the two boys.
Xu Ning's milk supply is getting less and less. She plans to wean the two boys when they are one year old and let Tangtang feed alone.
When the postman came over, Xu Ning was tidying up the vegetable patch in the yard.
He knew that Xu Ning had three children and it was not convenient for her to go to the Youth League Institute to get the letters, so now he had them delivered to her home.
"Xu Zhiqing, I have your letter and remittance slip today."
When Xu Ning saw him coming, he quickly went into the house and poured a bowl of water for him, saying with a smile, "Uncle, drink some water first. You are so busy every day, and I have to trouble you to bring it home for me."
The postman finished his water and said with a smile, "Xu Zhiqing, you are just being polite. It's not a big deal. It's just a few steps away. I can ride my bike here in two minutes."
After saying that, he gave the letter and remittance slip to Xu Ning and asked her to sign.
The letter and the remittance slip were both sent by Xu Yang. She had told him many times not to send any more money, but this brother didn't listen and continued to send ten yuan on time every month.
After she finished reading the letter, she happily said to Niupitang, "Your uncle is going to get married."
Seeing Xu Ning talking to them, Niupitang happily responded, "Uncle, daughter-in-law."
"Yes, your uncle is getting married, and he is bringing your aunt to visit you."
Xu Yang said in the letter that his girlfriend was a broadcaster in their military region and the daughter of their regiment commander. Her name was Li Na and she was three years younger than him.
Once when Li Na was out, her bicycle broke down and he happened to come across her, so he helped her fix it. Since then, the two have known each other.
Xu Yang told her about the situation at home, but didn't tell her that his parents were here.
Li Na didn't care. Her mother was a little opposed, but after being lectured by Li Na's father, she finally agreed.
The two of them have already filed a marriage report and are planning to get married next month. After they get married, they will bring Li Na over to show them.
Xu Ning was very happy for them. His eldest brother was not young anymore and now he had his own family, which put his parents at ease.
At noon, Xu Mo secretly took two fish when no one was around and said, "Sister, this is the fish I caught this morning. Make some soup for Niupitang."
She took it and said with a smile, "Xiao Mo, how many fish did you catch this morning? Did you leave any for food?"
Xu Mo said, "Sister, we went late this morning, so each of us got two. We agreed to go again in the afternoon."
"Then you can eat here! Keep an eye on the candies while I cook.
My eldest brother wrote me a letter today. He left it on the table on the kang. You can take it and show it to your parents. "Xu Ning said.
"Okay, sister, I'll come back to see Niupi Tang later."
In the evening, Xu's mother and Lu's mother came over.
Xu Ning discussed with Xu's mother, "Mom, my brother is getting married, how should we prepare things for him?
When I got married, he gave me 600 yuan, and he sent ten yuan here every month. I guess he didn't have much money.
Or I can send this money to him and buy him some money for his wedding. ”
Mother Xu said, "I discussed this with your father this afternoon. We need to be low-key in everything we do.
Just send him a hundred dollars first. If you have cloth coupons, buy some cloth and send it to him.
Just say that it’s your intention as a younger sister. Don’t mention us to avoid causing trouble for them. When they come, your father and I will give some money to your sister-in-law. ”
"Mom, I understand. I still have a lot of cloth coupons here. When Xiao An has a holiday, I will go to the city to buy some for my sister-in-law."
Xu Ning took out a set of bed sheets and quilt covers from the space, cut a few pieces of cloth, thought about it, and took out another bed sheet.
Let's send these first. Anyway, the two of them will be here soon. I'll bring them back if they need anything.
She put the packed things back into the space. Tomorrow was Sunday and Xu An didn't have to go to work, so she asked him to watch the taffy at home while she went into the city to mail it.
