At dinner time.
Li Mingfang and Li Mingyuan were also there.
He said jokingly, "Mingqing, you have to keep an eye on Niuniu. There are many people who want to marry your daughter as their daughter-in-law."
“It’s a must.”
Li Mingqing taught Niu Niu a lot of self-defense skills.
Although he is young, he practices very well.
"I don't think anyone in the village wants to marry you, but they know their own abilities and have the idea but not the courage."
"Yes, I see Old Lady Xu keeps talking about it."
"That's true. They can't walk when they see our family. Fortunately, Xu Dagou and his wife know their own limitations."
Yang Daya sighed and said, "Thinking back to when I got married, I had no dowry at all. No matter what, I have to save up a good dowry for Si Niu."
"Don't even mention you. Looking around our village, there's no girl who gets married with a proper dowry."
“There is no such condition.”
Xiangnan, Xiaozhe and the other two gathered together and talked non-stop.
Sharing the experience of playing slingshot.
Old man Li asked, "Will your children get married at home or somewhere else?"
"Of course it's at home."
"Yes, the village is so lively."
Old Lady Li smiled and said, "I was talking about this with your father a few days ago. I think you will all move out in a few years. Then we will go to the county town to visit you."
"Mother, look at what you're saying. You have four sons, and a week or a month would pass by if they stayed at each house. How can you two, an old man, stay in the village?"
Li Mingqing said seriously.
The old couple laughed happily when they heard this.
"We have arms and legs. If we earn a few work points in the village, we won't starve. Just come and visit us during the holidays."
"That won't do. You'll have to live with us then."
"That's right, otherwise the villagers will poke our spines."
"Everyone in the village envies us for having such a good son like you. We never lack meat to eat, and we never lack food to drink."
Li Mingfang smiled and said, "People say it's good to raise a son."
After he said that, he immediately realized that something was wrong.
Li Lizhu always wanted a son, but unfortunately she was not destined to have one.
But I've come to terms with it over the years.
Li Mingyuan patted Li Lizhu gently to comfort her.
She smiled and nodded.
Erniu and Sanniu are both well-behaved and considerate.
As for whether to have a son or not, it depends on fate.
——
The next day.
As Li Mingqing and his family of four arrived at the village entrance, they were stopped by someone.
Suddenly, I felt that it looked familiar.
Looking more closely, it turned out to be Sun Yingxiong.
Not only Li Mingqing and Sun Jiaxue were a little dazed, but Sun Yingxiong was also a little dazed.
I didn't recognize Sun Jiaxue at first.
There is no trace of my sister who used to be timid, cowardly and weak.
You can tell from his complexion that he is living a comfortable life.
"Little sister, come home with me. Mother passed away yesterday morning. No matter what, she carried you for ten months and gave birth to you. Go and see her off."
Sun Jiaxue was a little dazed when she heard this.
She never thought that Old Lady Sun would die. How could she, who she always thought was sarcastic and mean, die?
She subconsciously leaned closer to Li Mingqing.
Li Mingqing held Sun Jiaxue's hand and said, "We know about this. As for whether to go or not, we will decide. You can go first."
Sun Yingxiong added, "Little sister, you must come. You are the one that mother is most worried about."
"You're not lying to trick me into going back, are you?"
"You can't joke about this kind of thing, little sister, you must come."
She has to pay for the coffin.
You have to come.
Sun Jiaxue vaguely recalled the past, even the memories when she was four or five years old.
I didn't know why I started crying.
The memories that have been gradually forgotten over the years are slowly emerging at this moment.
Even if there are no good memories.
Niuniu took her hand and comforted her, "Mom——"
"Mom is fine."
When she looked at Niu Niu, she felt as if she saw herself as a child, except that her circumstances were completely different.
"Wife, are you okay?"
"I-I want to go back."
"OK."
The three children did not go.
Li Mingqing rode a bicycle with Sun Jiaxue to Sunjia Village.
The village hasn't changed much.
It’s just that the old wooden bridge was replaced by a new one.
Relying on memory, I came to Lao Sun's house.
It was still a mud house, with a small pile of firewood in front of the door.
A white cloth was draped over the door.
"Who is this? I've never heard that the Sun family has such a respectable relative."
"They're not relatives, right? If they were, the Sun family would have told the whole village about it long ago."
"Looks familiar to me."
"Now that you mention it, it looks quite familiar to me. I think I've seen it before."
"Oh my God, it must be the little girl from the Sun family."
"Yes, that's her."
"Didn't they say the Sun family sold her to the old man? Why did she come back dressed so respectably? And there's a young man beside her."
"No, I heard that she married a good man by mistake."
"You are what you are destined to be. The little girl had such a hard time in Old Sun's house before, and now look at how well she is doing."
"It seems that they are here to send Old Lady Sun off."
"After all, we are mother and daughter, so I must see her off one last time."
A few people got together and gossiped a lot.
Sun Jiaxue looked at the strange yet familiar faces and nodded at them.
When Wang Qiaoyun heard that her sister-in-law had returned, she hurried out to look for her.
Now that you are here, you can’t leave.
