It must be tiring after traveling and traveling all the way.

Ji Cheng sent Jiang Xiu and the others back, and didn't stay long before driving the three-wheeler back.

Jiang Xiu simply tidied up. They slept in their daughter and son-in-law's room, while Shanzi slept in Ji Nian's room.

To this end, Qiao Zhongjiang heated hot water in a large pot, and Shanzi washed his feet twice.

After wiping it clean, Shanzi put his arms around Third Uncle's neck and went to the house.

"Uncle Third, why is the bed so hot?" Shanzi felt it as soon as he entered the bed. He quickly opened the quilt and looked at it. It was a hanging bottle.

"Third uncle, you are so kind."

Shanzi put his arms around Qiao Zhongjiang's neck and almost hugged his third uncle into the bed.

"I'm afraid you'll be cold. I went home to get it."

Back in the house, Jiang Xiu brought a basin of water to Qiao Zhongjiang, "You should also soak your feet. You've been gone for a day."

Getting on and off the bus, buying food, carrying luggage, Qiao Zhongjiang was busy along the way.

"You wash first, and I can use the rest."

"There is also a pot of water, you wash it first."

Qiao Zhongjiang couldn't resist her, so he took off his shoes and soaked his feet.

"Did you drink too much? Do you want to make some honey water for you? I brought it."

Qiao Zhongjiang waved his hand, "No, I didn't drink much, I promise I won't talk drunkenly."

Jiang Xiu sat on the edge of the bed and looked at Qiao Zhongjiang, whose face was glowing red. She couldn't help but ask, "Do you believe what An An and Ji Cheng said?"

"Of course I believe it, and Shanzi, I can trust the character of these three children. I treat them sincerely, but I don't believe that they will ignore me when I get old."

Jiang Xiu hesitated to speak. Qiao Zhongjiang thought she was worried about this. He raised his feet and picked up a towel to wipe them. "Don't worry, it's okay. Even if they don't care about me in the future, I won't regret marrying you."

Jiang Xiu looked at him and didn't know what to say for a moment.

Qiao Zhongjiang walked over, sat next to her, and took her hand, "No matter what An An and Ji Cheng do to me in the future, that will happen decades later. It has nothing to do with us now. We just have to live our lives well." , don’t think about anything else.”

Jiang Xiu nodded. She hesitated for a moment and then spoke, "Zhongjiang, if..."

"What if?" Qiao Zhongjiang looked at her and saw her hesitating, and smiled: "We are husband and wife. If you have anything to say, just say it directly without any worries."

Jiang Xiu was silent for a while and whispered: "What if, what if I have it?"

Qiao Zhongjiang was stunned for a moment, then his eyes flashed with surprise, "You mean..."

Jiang Xiu nodded, with a bit of shyness and uneasiness on his face, "I just found out a few days ago. I, I already think of myself as grandma. If there is another one, I, I feel embarrassed."

Qiao Zhongjiang looked at her, his eyes full of pity, "Xiu, what's there to be embarrassed about? This is a matter between the two of us. We can have children if we want, and let others say whatever they want. Besides, we are only four In our early teens, can’t we have a child of our own?”

Jiang Xiu raised her head and looked into Qiao Zhongjiang's eyes, "But, Zhongjiang, I, can we not have this child? Her brothers and sisters are all grown up, and An An even has a child. If I... people in the village will definitely gossip, Two children can’t accept it. Besides, I’m not allowed to have a third child in my situation.”

"Have you told them? Are they against it?"

"I didn't say it directly. I asked Shanzi. When he was holding Lele, I said, if you have younger brothers and sisters, should you hold Lele or younger brothers and sisters? Shanzi said that it is enough for him to have three nephews, and he does not need any younger brothers. younger sister."

Qiao Zhongjiang's eyes suddenly dimmed, and after a while he said: "Then don't do it. My brothers and sisters don't like her. When she becomes sensible, she will definitely feel uncomfortable, and she will blame us for bringing her into this world."

"Zhongjiang, I'm sorry for you. Don't worry. Unless I die before you do, if they don't be filial to you in the future, I will never be done with them."

No one can predict what will happen decades later. Qiao Zhongjiang still believes in the character of Qiao Anan and Ji Cheng.

"Okay, go to sleep. If you are afraid that the children will know, we will wait until the New Year is over and return to Heshi before doing the surgery."

At dawn the next day, Qiao Zhongjiang went to clean up his house.

The bedding and other things were all left at my sister-in-law's house, and they were brought back to bask in the sun.

Sister-in-law Qiao asked: "Are all my brothers and sisters back?"

"I'm back. I had dinner at An An's house last night. I came back late and slept at her husband's house."

"Then don't worry. Your brother and I will bring you cabbage after dinner. I'll give you twenty kilograms of white flour first. That should be enough, right?"

The eldest brother and sister-in-law have always taken good care of Qiao Zhongjiang. It is not an exaggeration to say that an old sister-in-law is better than her mother.

"The land and orchards have been given to the second brother's family. We have agreed on how much wheat and kilograms of oil we need. I will go get them later."

The second brother and his wife...forget it, Sister-in-law Qiao won't talk about it.

There were too many things to pack. Qiao Zhongjiang went back to have breakfast and then came back to continue packing.

At noon, Shanzi came running over, "Third uncle, go home for dinner, my sister and the others are back."

After almost cleaning up, Qiao Zhongjiang and Shanzi went back together.

The three little guys just took a nap and changed places. It was very novel at this time. They looked here and there, but the adults were very busy.

What should I do if someone accidentally bumps into me?

This year the children are small, so Ji’s mother decided to clean up the big kang so that all five of her son’s family can sleep on the big kang.

warm.

The other room is actually not cold either. We have brought all the electric mattresses back, but they are not as good as a big kang.

Jiang Xiu had known for a long time that they were coming back, so she cooked big bones, cabbage cooked in big bone soup, and fried pot stickers.

The family sat together and had a lively meal.

After the meal, Jiang Xiu and the others took their things and returned to their newly packed home. Qiao Anan also took the New Year's goods from the wholesale department with them.

Shanzi was carrying Lele on his back, and Jiang Xiu was holding Qianqian (only leaving the naughty rice dumplings at home), so they fell behind.

As soon as I entered the courtyard, I heard someone talking inside.

"Are Gangzi and Tiedan your nephews?"

"How many times have I told you? Yes."

"Then you would rather use the money to subsidize others than take advantage of your nephew, right?"

"Second sister-in-law, we made an agreement when you planned to get these lands. You and second brother agreed at that time. Why did you cheat when it was time to do the real thing?"

Second Sister-in-law Qiao banged the table, "Are you not counting on your nephew anymore? If you die, can you crawl into the pit by yourself?"

"Second sister-in-law, you don't have to scare me with such words. I don't know what will happen to a person after he dies. Even if he is not buried in the street, I don't care. It is natural to cultivate the land to get food. If I sell it to others, I will definitely sell it to others. There are more than this number.”

Qiao Zhongjiang couldn't get enough of it, and the angry Second Sister-in-law Qiao almost poked him in the forehead, "If you want money or food, it's a beautiful idea!"
