Chapter 28

“We will go back tomorrow. Besides, I asked my aunt for help. There is no reason for her to come here.”

“If my aunt agrees, I will definitely tell her the style and pattern I want.”

When he heard about going back to his hometown, Shitou’s eyes lit up.

“Grandma, I want to go back too.”

Thinking of going back, Old Lady Xu was very happy: “Okay, go back whenever you want.”

He stood up and walked towards the room: “I’ll go back and pack up first, and I’ll be back early tomorrow morning.”

“Yeah, I’ll go clean up too.” Shi Tou jumped up happily and walked towards the room.

You can see from the backs of both the grandparents and grandchildren that they are very happy.

“Xiaoyu, your mother-in-law hasn’t come back since she went to the city. Weiguo’s family is in the city, and your sister-in-law’s family is also in the city. I heard that your sister-in-law’s in-laws are still connected.”

“Your mother-in-law is also in the city, why don’t you move your whole family to the city.”

Liu Xiaoyu was bending over to hoe the ground and glanced at her when she heard that.

“It’s good at home. Now I have my own land. It’s good at home.”

“What’s good about it? In the city, eating public food without being exposed to the sun and wind, what else is good about it? You work hard all year round, facing the loess and back to the sky, and you can’t make much money except for your own food.”

“What do you think your Wei Zu is thinking? Your brother-in-law is the Party Secretary of Jiangyuan City. It would be a piece of cake for such a high-ranking official to give your Wei Zu a job. He is really stubborn.”

“Aunt Liu.” Liu Xiaoyu saw that she was getting more and more excited as she talked.

“I see that you and I are married from the same village and I should be more tolerant of you, but my family’s affairs are not for an outsider like you to discuss. Why do you envy my mother-in-law for going to the city?”

“It’s no use for you to be envious. You’re not as capable as my mother-in-law. The children you gave birth to are not as good as hers.”

“You can’t enjoy this blessing even if you want to.”

“you……”

Liu Cuihua was so angry that she gasped: “This is how you were brought up. This is how you treat your elders?”

“It depends on who the elder is. You are not even related to my Xu family, so why are you pretending to be an elder?”

When Liu Xiaoyu heard the voice, she looked behind Liu Cuihua and a smile appeared on her tanned face.

“Mom, you’re back.”

When Liu Cuihua heard the voice, her body stiffened and she felt pain all over.

I couldn’t help but think of the scene when I was beaten.

I wanted to leave, but was stopped.

“Liu Cuihua, you have never been able to stir up trouble in my family. It seems that you can’t remember what happened last year.”

Liu Cuihua turned around with a smile on her face: “I was wondering who it was, it turned out to be my sister-in-law who came back. Oh, Xiaoshu and Shitou are back too. Remember to come to my house and play later. I’ll go back first.”

After saying that, he walked back in a hurry, as if a dog was chasing him, and he almost fell.

Seeing this, Old Lady Xu sneered: “Bah, you act like a big shot every day, not doing your farm work. Today you’re either discussing this family’s disputes or that family’s fights.”

Liu Xiaoyu picked up the hoe and walked over to them: “Why did you come back today, Mom? What happened?”

“Can you please hope that I’m okay? If nothing happens, you can’t come back.”

Liu Xiaoyu was obviously used to the way Old Lady Xu spoke, and there was no resentment on her face.

He smiled and shook his head: “I was just too surprised.”

Old Mrs. Xu snorted and handed her one of the packages.

“Nannan got into college. I came back to tell you and to visit you and Wei’an.”

“Xiaoshu was admitted to university?” Liu Xiaoyu’s tone was filled with pure joy and surprise.

“That’s great. I have to talk to my ancestors about this, the first college student in the Xu family.”

“Mom, let’s go home quickly. The sun is very hot today.”

Then he looked at Shitou and said, “Shitou, go to the back slope and ask your uncle and brother to come back.”

“Hey.”

Before she even reached home, Liu Xiaoyu was already shouting towards the yard at the top of her voice.

“Yuyu, open the door quickly, your grandma is back.”

The people and dogs drinking in the yard looked towards the door when they heard the sound.

Yu An quickly put his son on the ground and asked him to hold the dog, then walked quickly to the door and opened it.

“Grandma Xiaoshu, you are back, come in quickly.”

As he spoke, he took the package from Old Lady Xu’s hand and said, “Grandma and Xiaoshu should stay a little longer this time. The watermelons in the backyard are ripe now.”

“Yesterday, Brother Hong said that he would bring some to Grandma and his uncle and aunt after the weekend, but I didn’t expect Grandma to come back today.”

Xu Leshu looked at her cousin’s wife. She had a pretty face and a delicate appearance. Perhaps because she didn’t work in the fields often, her skin was relatively fair.

They haven’t stopped talking since the moment I saw them. They are quite talkative.

Old Mrs. Xu smiled and nodded: “Where’s Wei’an? Is he asleep?”

“No, it’s not time yet. I’m still playing with Wangfu in the yard.”

“Woof woof woof…”

Under the big pear tree in the yard, a big gray wolfhound looked at them vigilantly, protecting a child sitting on the ground behind him, scratching its fur.

“Wangfu.”

Old Mrs. Xu called out to it, and the alert dog immediately lowered its ears, wagged its tail like a propeller, and stepped on the ground as if its feet were burning.

The one-year-old Wei’an was first hit by Wangfu’s tail and then ruthlessly abandoned. He could not stand without support and sat on the ground.

I was confused as I looked at Wangfu who was crying as he walked out.

Xu Leshu looked at the big dog whimpering at Old Lady Xu’s feet and found it somewhat amusing.

Especially when he whipped the kid in the face with his tail just now.

“Sister-in-law.”

“Hey, come in quickly, it’s hot outside.”

Yu An looked at Xu Leshu, who looked like a young lady. Her skin was as white as glowing, and her clothes were beautiful and exquisite. Unlike the girls in the countryside who wore cotton and linen, which were all durable fabrics, he felt a little embarrassed.

Liu Xiaoyu put the hoe down at the corner and went into the house: “Yuyu, go get a piece of bacon and wash it, and also wash a bacon rabbit. I’ll go to the pond in the backyard and catch a fish.”

When Old Mrs. Xu heard what the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law said, she stopped them and went forward to open one of the bags.

“I brought back two pounds of meat, a few pounds of prawns and a duck. Don’t bother, just cook these first.”

When Liu Xiaoyu saw what she brought back, she looked at Old Lady Xu in reproach: “Mom, what are you doing? Why bring these back when you can just go home? We have them at home.”

Old Mrs. Xu looked at her granddaughter who was teasing little Weian in the yard and said, “I didn’t buy these. My daughter bought them. She made some money from doing small business recently.”

Old Lady Xu continued to take out things and looked at Yu An: “This is milk powder, clothes and shoes for Wei An, and silk scarves and cloth for you, make clothes for yourself and Xiao Hong.”

She took out a piece of cloth and a silk scarf and gave them to Liu Xiaoyu: “This is for you. You can make clothes for yourself and also make one for Wei Zu.”

“Mom, why are you buying all these? It must be very expensive to buy so many. I’ll give you the price.”

Old Mrs. Xu glanced at her and said, “Just keep it. You don’t need a ticket for fabrics now. These are all bought for you by Nannan in the provincial capital.”
