Reborn as a widow in the 70s

When Aunt Liu got older, her son didn't want her to work anymore. Last year, she and Song Xiuxiu quit their jobs.

Aunt Liu knew Song Xiuxiu's hard work for this family over the years, so before leaving, she gave her a big red envelope, which was enough for half a year's salary.

Aunt Liu was overjoyed and at the same time very reluctant to part with such a good employer.

So she introduced her grandniece in the country.

The little girl's name is Xiaocui. She is just this year. Although she is not outstanding in appearance, she is neat and honest and diligent, which suits Song Xiuxiu's liking.

When Zhao Xuewen came back today, Song Xiuxiu made a long list and asked Xiaocui to take it out and buy according to it.

After she came back, Song Xiuxiu started cooking in the kitchen while Xiaocui helped.

Zhao Xuewen wanted to go over to help, but was pushed out by Song Xiuxiu.

"You must be tired from taking the train all the way. Go and have a rest. We have plenty of food to cook."

Seeing that his help was rejected, Zhao Xuewen had no choice but to go back to his room and read a book.

In fact, he wanted to see Yaya, but he was afraid that he would upset her, so he didn't dare to go there.

"Big brother!"

In the evening, a clear shout echoed through the courtyard.

Miaomiao excitedly ran to Zhao Xuewen's room with her schoolbag on her back, rushed into his arms and started acting coquettishly.

"Brother, why did you come back just now! I really miss you!"

Zhao Xuewen held Miao Miao on his lap, pinched her braid and said with a smile.

"Our little Miaomiao, who we haven't seen for several years, has actually grown into a big girl. She is getting more and more beautiful!"

Miaomiao said proudly: "That's natural, don't even look at whose sister I am!"

As soon as she finished speaking, Zhao Xuewen nodded at her little mouth and said, "Auntie, what do you give you to eat every day? Your mouth is so sweet!"

"Eat honey!" After saying this, both of them laughed.

After the laughter subsided, Miaomiao stretched out her little hand and said, "Brother, here's the gift you brought me!"

Hearing this, Zhao Xuewen suddenly realized.

"I asked you, little girl, why do you have such a sweet mouth? It turns out you are waiting here!"

Miaomiao immediately hugged his arm and said coquettishly: "My mouth is sweet even without a gift. Who makes you my good big brother? But with a gift, my mouth is even sweeter!"

Zhao Xuewen was left with no choice but to open the luggage he brought back and take out a box from inside.

Before Zhao Xuewen could say anything, Miao Miao quickly snatched the box over and said playfully: "Thank you, brother!"

After saying that, he was about to run out, but Zhao Xuewen grabbed him by the pigtails.

"Come back, I have something else to say!"

"What's the matter? I'm still in a hurry to go to my classmate's house to do my homework!"

"Just two sentences won't delay you from doing your homework!"

After saying that, Zhao Xuewen took out another box from his luggage bag. This box was obviously much larger than the one in Miaomiao's hand.

When Miaomiao saw it, her eyes immediately lit up: "Brother, is this for me too!"

Zhao Xuewen rolled his eyes at her: "What a beautiful thought, this is for your sister."

Hearing this, Miaomiao said anxiously: "Brother, you can send it yourself. I'm really anxious to get out. My classmate is waiting for me at the entrance of the alley!"

When Zhao Xuewen saw this, he immediately put on a straight face and asked seriously: "What classmate, male or female, where are you going to do your homework and when will you be back? If you can't answer a single sentence, be careful, I'll tell your parents to go!"

Upon hearing this, Miaomiao took the box from his hand very well and said, "Why don't you go and deliver it to me?"

After saying that, he ran out with his schoolbag on his back.

In the room, Yaya was sitting in front of the desk, holding her chin in one hand and playing with the paintbrush in her hand, looking out the window at the lush pomegranate tree in a daze.

Just then, there was a bang on the door, and Miaomiao rushed in with two boxes in her arms.

"Sister, this is a gift from my eldest brother!"

After saying that, he stuffed the big box into Yaya's arms and ran out without looking back.

Yaya opened the box carefully and found that it was actually a glass photo frame.

A starfish is placed in the middle of the inside, surrounded by some small colorful shells, which is very beautiful.

Yaya looked at the exquisitely decorated photo frame in her hand and couldn't help but think of a grown man carefully and carefully making such a little girl's handmade decorations in a military dormitory. The picture was simply too inconsistent.

Yaya was immediately amused by the picture she imagined.

She carefully put the photo frame into the drawer, and then found a lock that had not been used for many years, and locked the drawer firmly.

Not long after, Lu Aiguo came back, followed by Xiaoshu.

Xiaoshu, who is just 15 years old, is already an important member of the scientific research institution.

Today Song Xiuxiu called Lu Aiguo and said that Xuewen was back, and he picked up Xiaoshu when he got off work.

Normally, this kid would really forget to eat and sleep when doing experiments, day and night.

For the sake of his health, Song Xiuxiu stipulated that he must go home and go to bed every day, no later than ten o'clock.

Xiaoshu could only obey his mother's rigid rules.

After all, his arms couldn't twist his thighs and he made his mother anxious. His father would never give him a good thing.

Seeing that everyone in the family was almost back, Song Xiuxiu asked Yaya to call Miaomiao back.

When Zhao Xuewen saw that Xiao Shitou was not there, he asked Song Xiuxiu: "Auntie, when will Xiao Shitou come back?"

Song Xiuxiu: "He's studying there now. He probably won't be able to come back this summer. I heard he's going to some desert island survival summer camp. He won't be able to come back until the Chinese New Year."

Upon hearing this, Zhao Xuewen let out a long sigh: "It turns out that when the little stone was hanging around in front of me all day, I thought he was quite annoying, but now that he is suddenly not around, I really miss him."

For Zhao Xuewen, Xiao Shitou was the one he made with his own hands. He is said to be an eldest brother, but he is more like a father.

Sometimes Zhao Xuewen feels that he really has a shadow of Lu Aiguo towards Xiao Shitou.

Since Xiao Shitou has not been a worry-free person since he was a child, Zhao Xuewen naturally puts more energy into him than Xiao Shu, and his feelings for him are certainly deeper!

The food was quickly put on the table, and the family sat together. As the head of the family, Lu Aiguo raised his wine glass and said happily: "Let us welcome Xue Wen home!"

"It's been four years and I'm finally back home. It's not easy!"

After saying that, he drank all the wine in the glass!

Zhao Xuewen didn't hesitate and poured all the wine in his hand down his throat.

Others took a symbolic sip.

Then Zhao Xuewen stood up, picked up the wine bottle next to him and served it to Lu Aiguo and Song Xiuxiu respectfully.

"Uncle Lu, Auntie! I would like to toast you two elders with this glass of wine. Thank you for raising me up and giving me a family!"

After saying that, he raised his head and drank the wine in the glass.

Lu Aiguo said with a smile: "It's too far to say that. We are a family to begin with!"

Lu Aiguo's original intention was that he regarded Zhao Xuewen as his own son, but in the ears of Zhao Xuewen and Yaya, it took on another meaning!

Ya Ya sat aside and kept her head down, silently eating the vegetables, but a blush crept up on her cheeks.

Xiaoshu, who was sitting opposite her, asked curiously: "Sister, you didn't drink either, why is your face so red!"

Yaya touched her hot cheek and explained in a low voice: "Maybe it's too hot!"
