At the beginning, I beat Lazy, and the host is cruel.

Douding's little eyes lit up. He felt that what grandma said seemed to make sense. He, who was never good at communicating with others, just nodded heavily and went to grandma's room obediently.

Xia Mo rolled his eyes and walked to the yard, dragging one of Zheng Daqian's legs like a dead pig, pulling him into the room and throwing him inside, regardless of whether he slept on the floor or on the bed. As long as the room doesn't freeze to death, that's fine.

After cooking dinner in the evening, the stoves are all connected to the kang, so it is always much warmer in the house than outside.

Xia Duan quickly returned to the room with foot washing water, fearing that Xiao Douding would be scared to be alone.

Sure enough, Douding breathed a deep sigh of relief when he saw his grandma coming in. He was a little scared in his heart, fearing that his father would break free.

After washing their feet, the grandfather and grandson lay down on the warm kang. Although the quilt was very thin, the kang was very warm.

Xia Mo reached out and held Douding in her arms. Douding huddled stiffly in her arms, motionless.

He felt that grandma's arms were so warm and smelled so good that he couldn't bear to leave her arms.

Xia Mo hummed a lullaby and patted Douding's back gently with one hand. Unknowingly, Douding relaxed his body and fell asleep.

Early in the morning, Douding woke up in a warm bed.

He sat up in shock and looked around. There was no one in the room, only the heat coming from the Kang.

In the morning at the end of summer, I felt that the kang was a little cold, so I got up and went to cook breakfast. I also heated the kang and allowed Little Douding to have a comfortable sleep.

Little Douding sat on the bed surrounded by the quilt. He didn't know whether he should go out. He wanted to go find grandma, but he was afraid to go out because he was afraid that what he saw was not grandma.

"Douding, you're awake. Come on, drink some hot porridge first. Grandma will put eggs in it for you."

Xia Mo came in with porridge in one hand, and moved an old kang table on the bed with the other hand.

Douding moved the quilt to the side, leaving a place for the kang table, "Grandma."

"Hey, my good grandson is so awesome. He helped grandma clear up all the space."

Xia Mo praised exaggeratedly and moved the kang table to where Douding had moved.

"Eat quickly, eat it while it's hot, and keep it warm."

Xia Mo put the spoon into Douding's hand.

Seeing that there was no porridge in front of her grandma, Douding held a spoon and pursed her lips. After hesitating for a long time, she whispered, "Grandma will eat it too."

As he spoke, he pushed the porridge towards Xia Mo.

Xia Mo happily clapped his hands and said, "My good grandson, why are you so filial? I didn't even eat a bite before thinking about grandma."

Xia Mo's sudden slap frightened Douding. Hearing what grandma said, he pursed his lips and felt a little happy.

"Hurry up and eat. Grandma's place still has some. I'll go get it. I'm so happy. My grandson is filial!"

Xia Mo wiped his eyes and walked out chattering.

Douding stirred the porridge in the bowl with a spoon. When he saw that there were two eggs in it, he couldn't help but swallowed, but he didn't eat. He wanted to wait for grandma to come and eat together.

When Xia Duan walked in with the dishes and chopsticks, he saw Douding looking at the door. When he saw him coming in, he turned his head.

"My dear grandson, why haven't you eaten? Eat quickly. Look, grandma's bowl is bigger than yours."

At the end of summer, I won't save those three melons and two dates. I will act like grandma won't eat them, but will save them all for you, which will make the children feel guilty. If possible, eat together so that the children can eat without any burden, that is called fun.

Xia Mo deliberately poked the two eggs in her bowl on her chopsticks, raised them up for Douding to take a look at, "See, grandma has them here too, eat them quickly, and grandma will take you to play after you finish."

Douding saw that there were two eggs in grandma's bowl, and finally ate them with peace of mind.

After dinner, Xia Mo wanted to change Douding's clothes. She looked around but couldn't find anything that Douding could wear. She was so angry that she took apart Zheng Daqian's used cotton-padded jacket and wrapped it with a piece of cotton. I was holding cotton and went to the flower lady next door to help me make a suit for my bean.

"Douding, you wait for grandma on the kang. Grandma will take these next door to your grandma Hua and ask her to make you some clothes, okay?"

Douding stretched out his hand to grab the corner of Xia Mo's clothes, shook his head gently, and avoided looking at his grandma, fearing that she would be unhappy.

But he didn't want to leave grandma. Only by staying with grandma would he not be afraid.

"My dear grandson, you can't bear to leave grandma?"

Doudin nodded.

Xia Mo smiled and said, "Okay, you can wear more clothes and go with grandma."

This child would rather stay cold than follow him out, but he is still scared, so he can only take his time.

There was a smile in Douding's eyes, and he got up and quickly put on his clothes.

"Flower girl, are you at home?"

"Hey, Sister Zhao, what's going on so early in the morning?"

Mrs. Hua drank her porridge and walked towards the door.

"I have something to trouble you with."

"Come in quickly, what's the matter?"

Mrs. Hua stamped her feet, scaring away the chickens that were looking for food at the door, fearing that they would run out as soon as the door was opened.

Xia Mo pulled Douding in and said, "I want you to help Douding make a pair of cotton-padded clothes and trousers. You can keep this piece of cloth to make a shoe upper for your grandson."

Mrs. Hua raised her eyebrows and looked at the end of summer. The sun was coming to the west, and the old Zhao family was willing to make clothes for poor Douding?

"It's easy to say, just leave it there, why are you being polite to me?"

Mrs. Hua also took pity on the skinny Douding. She had nothing to do at this time, so she finished the work in most of the day.

"That's troubling you. I heard that your daughter-in-law is pregnant again? How many months has it been?"

Xia Mo asked casually.

Mrs. Hua curled her lips and stood in the yard and said loudly, "I'm only two months pregnant. Look at what time it is, and you don't know how to get up, cook, or take care of the child. You know it every day. When I go to sleep, I don’t even know what my son likes about her.”

After Hua Pozi's daughter-in-law heard it in the house, she replied, "Me, I'm not good at anything, I'm just a little good."

"Hey...what's so good about you!" Hua Pozi curled her lips and rolled her eyes.

"I have a good life. I have a good mother-in-law who helps me cook, wash my clothes, and take care of my children. You said this kind mother-in-law, let alone a lantern and can't find it, is just a lantern." I can’t find a hundred lanterns, how lucky I am, I’ve laid them out, haha!”

Mrs. Hua couldn't help it and grinned, "Look at my wife here, she just has a good mouth."

Xia Mo Lei's is crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. The wife here is so sweet, "It's very good. You should rest more when you're pregnant!"

Mrs. Hua couldn't hold her lips down and shouted loudly, "Okay, you can sleep a little longer. I'll heat up the rice for you. Remember to eat when you get up!"

"Okay, thank you, Mom! Oh, I haven't met a mother-in-law better than my mother-in-law in these ten miles and eight villages!" Grandma Hua's daughter-in-law released another circle of rainbow farts.

The coaxed Mrs. Hua almost couldn't find the kitchen door.

"Come on, eat melon seeds. Look how thin this kid is."

Mrs. Hua grabbed a handful of melon seeds and stuffed them into Douding's pocket, her eyes filled with distress.

"Douding, please thank Grandma Hua." Xia Mo squeezed Douding's little hand encouragingly.

Douding gritted his teeth and said in a mosquito-like voice, "Thank you, Grandma Hua."

"Oh, you heard it. My grandson is so polite. Let me tell you, my grandson is so filial. He had to wait for me to eat breakfast with him this morning!"

The corner of Mrs. Hua's mouth twitched. She was sorry that she really didn't hear clearly what the child said. However, Mrs. Zhao seemed a bit talkative. Could it be that she was angry with that scoundrel Zheng Daqian?
