Returning to her parents’ home

It was just dawn, and the diligent people in Lihua Village were already preparing dry food to go up to Dongshan to pick chestnuts. Even though they had been busy all afternoon on the mountain yesterday, they didn't feel anything. What's the matter with being tired?

Although I am a little tired, I can still have food!

When Nanzhi went to Aunt Liu's house to borrow a donkey cart, she happened to meet her family who had packed up and was about to go out.

Aunt Liu was stunned for a while when she saw that Nanzhi and Gouer had both changed into tattered clothes today. Although everyone wears old clothes when working, are their clothes too shabby today?

Looking at the patches on top of each other, they are almost as good as those in Bai Nie Yi.

After thinking about it for a while, I couldn't help but ask: "Girl, why are you wearing these clothes today?"

Nanzhi originally felt that Aunt Liu was looking at him a little strangely, but after hearing her ask, he understood the reason. He just smiled and said, "I want to go back to my parents' house today, so I came to ask Auntie to borrow a donkey cart."

Naturally, Aunt Liu knew that she had borrowed the money from Nanzhi's mother-in-law's home to bury her parents-in-law. After hearing this, she nodded: "You can borrow it or not, just use it."

After a pause, he added: "You are a good kid. After all, life is not easy now, but you must leave enough food for you two."

Nanzhi smiled and nodded: "Hey, I know."

Aunt Liu called her youngest son to help Nanzhi move things, and she nodded with satisfaction when she saw the couple driving the donkey cart slowly toward the entrance of the village.

"Mom, why are you laughing?" Shen Yuntian narrowed his eyes when he saw his mother smiling at the backs of Mrs. Lin and the others. Goosebumps suddenly appeared all over her body, wondering why her mother was acting so strangely.

"Why is Sister-in-law Lin dressed like that today?"

Hearing her youngest son muttering in a low voice, Aunt Liu rolled her eyes and saw that a person who was usually very smart couldn't even see such a thing now. She must have followed her old man's stupid mind.

Thinking of his old man's appearance last night, he snorted coldly before turning around and going home to greet everyone in the yard to set off.

Shen Yuntian was confused for a moment. Was he disliked by his mother?

Looking at his mother-in-law and the old clothes he was wearing, he seemed to suddenly understand. He just touched his nose and followed his family's footsteps.

"Auntie, shall we go to grandma's place?" The dog sat upright next to Nanzhi, with some dust on his little face.

He remembered that there were two brothers in his grandmother's house, and they were very funny.

"Yes, let's go to grandma's place."

Nanzhi drove the little donkey, feeling a little sad in her heart. She just treated her as a visiting relative, and at first she even wore nicer clothes with the dog.

It was only when she was about to go out that she realized that although she was sending food to her parents' family this time, if she was well-dressed in this year, wouldn't she be telling others that she had food in stock?

Then he quickly took the dog back and changed into the shabbiest clothes.

Looking at the dog's fair and clean face, I always felt that something was not right, so I grabbed some carbon ash and smeared it on my face before going out with satisfaction.

The dog's current appearance is almost exactly the same as the one he saw when he first came here. He is just a poor, abandoned doll.

Lihua Village and Dashi Village are separated by more than ten miles, and it took half an hour for the donkey cart to arrive.

Due to its geographical location, the conditions in Dashi Village are worse than those in Lihua Village. Now that there has been a drought for more than half a year, Dashi Village is not close to the river in front or back, and each village only relies on three wells to survive.

There was no water in the fields, and the food was so sparsely grown that it was no match for weeds.

Nanzhi didn't even see anyone along the way. Occasionally she met someone who was so thin that she couldn't recognize who it was.

It was already dawn, and most of the people in Lihua Village would have gone to the ground. However, Dashi Village was as quiet as an empty village, and not even the sound of crickets could be heard.

"Aniang."

The dog was a little scared and moved towards Nanzhi, tightly grabbing the hem of her clothes with one small hand, as if this would make him less afraid.

"Be good, dog, we are almost there." Nanzhi comforted softly, but she was also a little nervous in her heart.

Finally arriving at the door of Lin's house, Nanzhi hesitated for a while before knocking on the door.

After a while, there was no response. Nanzhi was still doubting whether there was no one at home, but just as he was about to turn around, he heard the wooden door being opened a crack.

A little head poked out from the crack in the door. When the little baby saw the person coming, he shouted: "Auntie."

The dog's eyes lit up when he saw the little baby. He climbed out of the donkey cart and shouted to the child: "Brother Doudou."

The person who opened the door was Brother Nanzhi's youngest son, Doudou. Doudou was two years older than Gou'er. The last time he saw Nanzhi was when she came back to borrow money more than a year ago.

"Doudou, are the adults at home here?"

After listening to Nanzhi's words, Doudou nodded and opened the door to let Nanzhi in: "I'm at home."

The doors to the farmyard were all wide open, so Nanzhi followed the two little children and drove the donkey cart into the yard.

When the Lin family heard the noise, they all came out of the main room. They were stunned when they saw Nanzhi coming with the dog, but they didn't say anything, they just greeted him to come in.

"Girl..." Mother Lin looked at her little girl with a sore nose, and just pulled her to sit down.

"Old lady, what are you doing? Isn't the child okay?" Lin's father looked at his wife and said unhappily.

It's a good thing that the child is back. It's ridiculous to cry.

Lin Dacheng and Lin Ercheng felt a little distressed when they looked at their younger sisters. It's hard for their sisters to live with children, orphans, and widowers in today's world. It's okay to see their little nephew beggar.

It’s different. Although my family doesn’t have enough to eat, at least my children are not hungry.

As for the two sisters-in-law, Sun Cui and Chen Qiulan, who were standing aside, their expressions were a little ugly.

The two sisters take turns cooking at home, and they naturally know how much food is left in the house. The only things left are half a bag of black noodles in the kitchen and less than 200 kilograms of sweet potatoes in the cellar.

My family is having a hard time, and looking at the appearance of my sister-in-law and the dog, I am afraid that they have come to seek refuge.

Naturally, Mother Lin knew what her two daughters-in-law were thinking. She didn't wait for Nanzhi to speak. She just held her hand and said, "Girl, just come back. Don't worry, your father and your two brothers can still afford to support your mother."

both."

Nanzhi felt that her nose was very sore, and before she could speak, her body instinctively cried out, and she only shouted: "Mother!"

Naturally, the mother and daughter hugged each other and cried. Although Nanzhi's body was out of control, she gave up struggling as her nose ran out. It was probably because of her emotions, so it would be better to have a happy life.

She also felt that she was miserable. She had just passed through time after being admitted to the university of her choice, and she became a widow who had problems with food and clothing.

Father Lin smoked the empty dry smoke and felt a little worried.

Although he was happy that his daughter was back with her grandson, he was afraid that it would be unfair to the Dacheng and Erchen family.

"this……"

Father Lin looked at his two sons, hesitant.

Knowing his father Mo Ruozi, Lin Dacheng knew his concerns from the look on his face and spoke first: "Let the fat girl live at home. Er Cheng and I can afford it."

But Gou'er heard his uncle's words and tilted his head to look at Doudou: "Brother Doudou, who is Fatty?"

Doudou looked at the dog with a smile, pointed at the branch and said, "It's my aunt. Daddy said that my aunt used to be fat, so she was called Fat Ya."

Nanzhi, who was still crying, paused for a moment, only to feel that even his nose, which was still shrinking, had stopped.

"Sister-in-law, please stay." Sun Cui felt a little uncomfortable looking at her husband, so she just spoke.
