The two brothers walked towards the supply and marketing cooperative with their vegetable baskets. Xiao Mo walked in front and greeted everyone he saw with a smile in Northeastern dialect.
When they see a woman, they call her "big sister" or "auntie". When they see a man, they salute him and call him "hello, comrade".
Others asked him who he was? He said he was the eldest son of Dean Lu and Director Fang.
Everyone who knows Mr. and Mrs. Lu is very confused. Doesn’t Dean Lu have only a daughter and a son? They are both married, so how come they have such a young son?
He told others that he met him in the countryside.
Some gossipy people, looking at his age, would guess that the couple had another child in the countryside?
Seeing that he greeted everyone he met, Xu An thought it was embarrassing, so he kept his distance from him and pretended not to know him.
Xiao Mo ignored him and walked in front with a basket of vegetables and a smile on his face.
After work, Lu's father and mother rushed home. Those who were familiar with him joked, "Dean Lu, Director Shen, this old son is different when he comes back. He doesn't even eat in the cafeteria."
When the two heard this, they knew that Xiao Mo was out socializing again.
Father Lu smiled and said, "We won't eat in the cafeteria. My son has already prepared the meal at home. We can go back and eat the ready-made food."
When the man heard him admit it, he asked in surprise: "Hey, no, did you two really have another child in the countryside?"
Now the couple couldn't hold back their laughter any longer.
On the way back, people who were familiar with them asked if they had given birth to another son in the countryside.
When they got home, their faces were sore from smiling.
Xu An was cooking in the kitchen. His old son, who cooked their specialty, was lying on the sofa with his legs crossed and eating snacks.
Seeing them coming back, he shouted to the kitchen, "Second brother, hurry up, Uncle Lu and Aunt Lu are back from get off work, and your meal is not ready yet."
Then he went to the door and said to them, "President Lu and Director Shen are off work. Go sit down and take a rest. I'll get you some water."
The two of them hugged him and kissed him for a while. Dad Lu asked with a smile, "Xiao Mo, your aunt Lu said you were going to cook two dishes we like. Why is your second brother in the kitchen?"
“Uncle Lu, the two dishes that you and Aunt Lu like to eat are made better by my brother than by me, so I let him make them.
He also wants to honor you, so as his younger brother, I will let him show his filial piety. Next time, tell me what you want to eat and I will cook it for you. ”
After hearing what he said, Mr. and Mrs. Lu laughed again. They knew that this kid was just slacking off because he saw his second brother was here.
Xu An, who was cooking in the kitchen, heard the conversation outside and sighed.
After buying the vegetables, the boy lay down on the sofa and didn't move, saying that he was tired from walking. He ordered him to sweep the floor, cook, and arrange what dishes to cook for him.
After washing her hands, Lu's mother went into the kitchen to help. Xu An stopped her and said, "Aunt Lu, don't get involved. There's only one dish left, and we can eat soon."
"Xiao An, thank you for your hard work."
"Aunt Lu, it's just two dishes, it's not that hard."
While eating, Xiao Mo told the two of them the purpose of their return.
Father Lu said: "Your parents should have been picked up by the school to work, you don't have to worry.
As for your house, you don't have to ask for it. There is no need to deal with such shameless people.
You should take the house deed to the street office first. I will call the power supply bureau this afternoon and ask your aunt to take you to get the house back tomorrow. ”
Xu An thought for a moment and said, "Uncle Lu, my uncle and aunt have jobs, so we can go find their leaders, but my step-grandmother is a difficult person to deal with, and I'm afraid she won't leave when the time comes."
The reason why he came back this time was that he was afraid that his parents could not deal with the old woman. It was not that his parents had no means, after all, she was only his mother in name only.
Although I severed ties, I couldn't be too drastic. My parents had just resumed work and I was afraid it would affect their reputation.
The old woman is so shameless and cruel that she can do anything.
Xiao Mo said nonchalantly, "Second brother is overthinking. Don't we have a letter of severance? It doesn't matter anymore. Why should she live in our house? We can just ask two aunts to kick her out when the time comes."
Mother Lu smiled and nodded, saying, "Xiao Mo is right. When your uncle and aunt move out, if the old woman insists on staying there, we can hire two fierce daughters-in-law to carry her out. She is not afraid of embarrassment, so what should we be afraid of?"
When Xu An heard this, he wondered why he hadn't thought of this. He looked at Xiao Mo again. This kid has so many clever ideas. Fortunately, he brought him back.
After they discussed these matters, Mother Lu said to the two of them, "Don't go back today. Tomorrow we will go directly to the street office and then go to your uncle's workplace."
“Aunt Lu, there is an elder in our family. If I don’t go back at night, he will be worried.”
When they came out, they didn't tell Uncle Lin that they would not be back at night. Uncle Lin must have thought that they had lost their way and looked for them everywhere.
Xu Mo made the decision: "Second brother, you go back. I will stay here to talk with Uncle Lu and Aunt Lu tonight. Aunt Lu and I will come to see you tomorrow morning."
He decided the matter like this, and everyone nodded with a smile.
