After a simple rebirth

Chapter 178 Fragrance from far away and smell from near

Fu Ying was puzzled, and Fu's mother asked first, "Sister, is this the daughter born to your second son?"

Aunt Fu nodded, "Yes, her mother gave birth to her and gave her to me. She went out to work when she was three months old. She's only five months old now!"

Fu Ying also suddenly realized. She knew who it was. Her name seemed to be Xiao Rui. She was her cousin's eldest daughter. Her cousin also had a younger daughter who was not pregnant yet. She didn't know whether her family had a son later.

The younger cousin is also a strange man. He worked for many years before he was willing to get married. He doesn't seem like a man who is only interested in having children. Because of his carefree attitude and late marriage, his two daughters are about the same age as his eldest brother's granddaughter. Fu Ying only knows that the two girls are brought up by Aunt Fu. Their parents have been working in Zhejiang Province and will only come back during the Chinese New Year.

Fu Ying only remembered the girl who grew up and kept chattering with Aunt Fu. She almost didn't realize that this little baby was her former self.

A group of people came in and sat by the stove. The eldest cousin's wife was about to turn up the fire and cook for them, but Second Aunt Fu stopped her, saying that she had just finished breakfast and it was too early to have lunch, so there was no need to cook for now.

The eldest cousin's wife continued to wash clothes, and Fu Ying and Fu Zhe listened to their conversation.

Aunt Fu kindly cared about Fu Ying and Fu Zhe, and also asked Fu Ba and Fu Yu in Guangdong Province. Fu Ma answered, and said that Aunt Fu was too tired, so she asked her to let Fu Ying hold the child for a while.

Fu Ying...mother appears again.

However, Fu Ying herself likes children very much, otherwise she would not have worked in the kindergarten for a year.

She took Xiao Rui in her arms. The little baby was not afraid of strangers. Fu Ying just stared at her and didn't cry. Children who don't cry or make a fuss are the cutest. Looking at the little Xiao Rui, Fu Ying thought she was really super cute!

The eldest cousin's wife asked her eldest son to get some melon seeds for them to eat. A charcoal-like boy who was thinner and darker than Fu Zhe was called Xiaoye. He ran around, calling people one by one.

Fu Ying looked at him handing it over, nodded and said thank you. Listening to Fu's mother asking Xiaoye if he was still studying, Xiaoye said that he couldn't concentrate on studying. He could have gone to Gumang to study in high school after finishing junior high school, but he didn't want to study anymore. This year he would stay at home to help, and next year he would go to Zhejiang Province to work with his second uncle.

Fu Ying listened and realized that in the countryside, not studying meant that one had to work, and working meant that one could get married and have children.

Fu Ying also thought of his wife. She was not very familiar with Xiao Ye, but she had met his wife several times. According to his life trajectory, he dropped out of school and went to work for two years. His eldest cousin arranged a marriage for him, and his wife married in like a child bride.

His wife was called Duanmei. Fu Ying remembered that she was a very gentle, obedient and virtuous girl, who met the standards for finding a daughter-in-law in rural areas. Duanmei and Xiaoye were from the same village, but Duanmei's family was a little more difficult. She was the eldest sister, and she had two younger sisters and a younger brother. One of the younger sisters was a little disabled, and her parents favored boys over girls. At the age of 15, Duanmei, who had not been educated, married into Fu's cousin's family. They lived together for two years. She became pregnant at the age of 17, gave birth to her eldest daughter when she was almost 18, and gave birth to her second son two years later.

Fu Ying didn't have much contact with people from her hometown, and there were only a few people she could remember clearly.

The year Fu Ying reissued her ID card, she could not apply for an ID card in another place, nor could she send the ID card by express mail. So Fu Ying came back twice. The first time she was in a hurry, she just got the ID card and left. The second time she came back to get the ID card, Fu's father specifically asked her to visit relatives on behalf of the family.

She was coming back by long-distance bus, and got off at the intersection of Aunt Fu's house, and her eldest cousin came to pick her up. Knowing that she brought a suitcase, her eldest cousin came to pick her up with a backpack, put her suitcase in the backpack, and took her back to Aunt Fu's house.

It was very foggy that day, with low visibility, and her eldest cousin also took that path with her.

At her eldest cousin's house, she met Duan Mei, who was pregnant at the time. She smiled and gently greeted Fu Ying, calling her "Second Aunt". When Fu Ying found out that she was younger than herself, only 17 years old, she was shocked.

I met Duanmei two or three times later, but it was always when many relatives were around, and I just exchanged a few simple greetings. The last time I met her was when I went back with Zhang Zun. Duanmei was holding her second son, who should be two years old. He could walk by himself but wanted his mother to hold him.

At this moment, she should still be studying or helping with the household chores.

My eldest cousin’s family were all very polite, or maybe because they were more polite when they were far away, but no one forced her to work in the fields after she stayed there for two days.

Sometimes life is very strange. When Fu Ying meets a relative or friend, she can recall him or his story in the previous life. But she can only think about it and cannot say anything.

Everyone has his own path. Character determines choices, and choices determine destiny.

Moreover, thanks to the country's vigorous efforts to alleviate poverty, they will actually live much better later. The roads in the village have become cement roads, and the village officials will arrange for them to grow medicinal herbs and fruits and vegetables. Although the benefits cannot be seen immediately and it is difficult to define specifically whether they have been lifted out of poverty, it is true that the life of every household in the rural area has improved a lot.

If she really has the ability to help and have a positive impact on others, then she will definitely use her strength, but she is just an ordinary person and can only think about it in her mind and do her own thing first.

Fu Ma and the others were chatting, Fu Zhe and Xiao Ye were running in and out, they were already very familiar with each other, and Fu Ying could only watch TV while holding the baby.

Fu Ying feels that Mango TV is very popular in villages and towns, especially its variety shows. When she was a child, her favorite show was Happy Camp. Although she watched it less often after she started working, she would still feel happy and silly when she saw it.

The TV is playing "Startling by Each Step" at the moment. Fu Ying will watch the TV series when it is on, but she will not actively follow the series. It is also good to watch TV at this time when she happens to have time, just as a pastime.

Speaking of which, I can also watch Kuaiben tonight. It makes me happy just thinking about it. No matter if I know the stars or not, no matter if it is really funny or not, I am already looking forward to and having fun watching this show.

The eldest cousin's wife was a very capable and straightforward person. After finishing her work, she came in to give them some sunflower seeds and chatted with them. She also took the initiative to ask Fu Ying if she was tired of holding Xiao Rui. Fu Ying shook her head and said that it was fine to sit and hold her.

According to seniority, the eldest cousin's wife should call Fu Ying by her name, but she always called Fu Ying "Second Aunt". Fu Ying used to think that her cousin's wife was younger than Fu Ying in terms of seniority, so she and her cousin called each other by their names.

Later, I asked Fu's mother and found out that Fu Ying should be called sister-in-law, and she called Fu Ying "Second Aunt" just to follow her children, just like some girls would call their mother-in-law "Grandma" after getting married, just like their children would call their mother-in-law "Grandma".

Fortunately, Fu Ying did not shout randomly, but took the initiative to call them brother and sister-in-law, otherwise it would have been very embarrassing.

The eldest cousin's wife still arranged breakfast, so a group of people were chatting and watching TV, but the eldest cousin's wife was busy cooking. Her daughter Fu Ying, whom I saw for the first time, came out to help her carry bowls and cut vegetables.

Standard local dishes, fried potato chips, bacon with garlic leaves, and sauerkraut cooked in clear soup, seem routine but are actually very good. Including the rice, everything is fresh, showing sincere hospitality.

The child also fell asleep, so Aunt Fu took her and put her to sleep in the inner room, and then they prepared to eat.
