rebirth chores

Everything is moving forward according to the established goal as Xu Xiaowen imagined, calm and happy.

The reborn Xu Xiaowen lost her pomp and restlessness, and what settled down was stability and maturity.After this year, every relative who saw Xu Xiaowen couldn't help but admire him for becoming sensible and well-behaved.Jiang Yun always pretended to say unintentionally when playing mahjong that his son got the first place in the class, and he gained countless envy.

Xu Xiaowen supported Jiang Yun very knowledgeably, served tea and water, beat his back and rubbed his shoulders, and became the best one among all the children.The Xu family's son earned Jiang Yun a lot of face during the New Year's Day.At the same time, Xu Xiaowen also received generous lucky money.

In other words, New Year's money is actually a Chinese New Year feature that children get rich and adults suffer.There are many relatives in Jiang Xu's family, Jiang Yun has two younger brothers, seven or eight cousins, Xu's father who passed away in Xu's family has six relatives, and Xu's father is old.The youngest aunt's daughter is also married. Xu Xiaowen currently has twelve nephews and nieces from the Xu Jiang family.The annual New Year's money puts a lot of pressure on Jiang Yun.

After the winter vacation, Xu Xiaowen's elementary school foundation consolidation plan was basically completed.

Thanks to the fact that the homework in elementary school is not difficult, if he is reborn in the third year of high school... it must be terrible!Fortunately... fortunately...

The seats were changed again, and Xu Xiaowen sat in the middle of the third row.

This is a place of good geomantic omen. Although it is in the middle, it is in the blind spot of the teacher's vision - the teacher usually stares at the underachievers in the back row, and unlike the students in the first and second rows, they either eat chalk dust or suffer from the teacher's "talking like a river" , The central position does not hinder the viewing of the blackboard.

It is a pity that Xu Xiaowen still tunes once a week.In two weeks his seat will be transferred to the first row on the right next to the door.The cold winter wind penetrates into the trouser legs...Xu Xiaowen decided to ask his grandmother to sew him a knee pad.

Like most old people, Xu Xiaowen's grandfather has a typical patriarchal thought.After my grandmother gave birth to Jiang Yun, it took six years to give birth to the eldest son.During those six years, according to Jiang Yun, grandma's life was very difficult.

Grandma has no natal family and does not know her hometown.

It's been a long time since then.

Grandma's biological parents gave birth to three daughters before they had a son, and grandma was the youngest daughter.In China in the 40s, it goes without saying that rural families were poor and backward.Grandma's parents are quite conscientious. Facing the choice of their son and daughter, they didn't say that they would throw their daughter away in the corner. They couldn't support all the children, so they sent them away.For the sake of the younger son, the younger daughter was given to someone else as a child bride.According to the insider, two sacks of coarse grains and one piece of calico, this is because the grandfather's family was a rare wealthy family at that time.The two sides don't need to meet each other, just ask the middleman to report the child. The grandmother only knows that her biological father's surname is Shen, but she doesn't know where he is from or what he does.The life of a child bride-in-law is decades.After giving birth to her daughter, she was short of breath. After giving birth the first day, she went to work in the fields the next day.Beating and scolding day and night, it would be better to know that the eldest uncle was born.

The miserable life in the first half of her life made this little old lady, who is only 1.5 meters tall, bend her waist and lower her head all the year round, speak softly, and dare not go to the table to eat.

Xu Xiaowen still remembers that during the reunion dinner on New Year’s Eve, grandma used a large bowl of rice and filled it up to the full. When the bowl couldn’t hold it, she added more. Grandpa scolded her: “It’s not that there’s no food, you’re starving to death. Reincarnation..." In front of the junior, grandma smiled embarrassingly, put down the spoon silently, and sat down at the small table on one side - the big table is for adults, and the small table is for children.

The days of not being able to eat a full stomach are too long, and grandma's habit of filling up a big bowl of food will not change no matter how many times grandpa scolds her!

Regardless of whether it was the previous life or the new life, grandma was very kind to Xu Xiaowen's mother and son, better than her uncle and uncle.Xu Xiaowen followed Jiang Yun back to her mother's house, and there was always Xu Xiaowen's favorite dishes on the table served by her grandmother.Grandma can make clothes, and Xu Xiaowen has several jackets and cotton clothes made by grandma in Xu Xiaowen's closet.

Xu Xiaowen wanted a knee pad, so he went to talk about it the first day, and the next day, grandma asked his little uncle to bring it to him.Imagining grandma threading needles under the dim light, Xu Xiaowen suddenly regretted being meddlesome.Grandma is also getting old, and sewing at night hurts her eyes too much.

The little uncle didn't come here to give Xu Xiaowen knee pads, he came to see Jiang Yun for something.

Jiang Yun still went to work after the Chinese New Year. Xu Xiaowen learned to cook by himself after entering junior high school. Jiang Yun would not come at noon at all. Every afternoon after get off work, he bought the next day's food, and Xu Xiaowen came back from school at noon to cook by himself.Xu Xiaowen usually cooks more at noon, heats up after school in the afternoon, and eats casually, and eats after school in the evening.

Before the [-]th day of the first lunar month, Jiang Yun's work place was more leisurely than usual. He basically went to work in the morning, and in the afternoon, the workers wandered around for a while before slipping back home.

Jiang Xinyuan saw how his nephew could sit and wash rice and cook by himself, so he rolled up his sleeves and stepped forward to help, so he simply asked Xu Xiaowen to play with him to cook.Jiang Xinyuan used to cook frequently and was no stranger to it. He was surprised that Xu Xiaowen was also so proficient in cooking, and he couldn't help feeling a little sad.It's not easy for my sister, my nephew is so pitiful!

Xu Xiaowen couldn't compete, so he put a small bench by the kitchen door and sat down to talk to his uncle.

"Uncle, do you have something to do with your mother?"

"Ah."

"What's the matter?" Xu Xiaowen asked curiously.

Jiang Xinyuan smiled: "Kid, don't worry about adults' business!"

Xu Xiaowen won't be dismissed with a single sentence, but he didn't ask: "My mother doesn't know when she will come back, or should I go find her?"

Jiang Xinyuan thought about it and agreed.

Xu Xiaowen went to the place where Jiang Yun worked. It was a carton factory that produced all kinds of carton boards.The place is not far away. Xu Xiaowen borrowed the bicycle from the neighbor next door and rode there in about seven or eight minutes.Jiang Yun was chatting with his colleagues after eating, when his son came to tell her that his uncle was looking for her, he simply put away his things, said hello, and left.Seeing that Jiang Yun was about to leave, two colleagues couldn't stay any longer. There was no work to do during this period of time, and it was boring to stay here. Anyway, the boss just went home anyway.

When Jiang Yun returned home, Jiang Xinyuan also steamed the rice, and the dishes were almost cooked.Jiang Yun took the spatula, let his brother sit down, and asked him what was the matter.

Xu Xiaowen returned the bicycle, went to the kitchen, took the dishes and chopsticks and put them in the living room.

Jiang Xinyuan waited for Xu Xiaowen to go out from the kitchen, and then said in a low voice, "My cousin came to my house the day before yesterday and wanted to tell you a date."

Jiang Yun was taken aback.

Jiang Xinyuan then lowered his voice and said, "What Dad means is that brother-in-law has been gone for almost two years. It's not easy for you to take Xiaowen by yourself. Why don't you ask someone to help you."

Jiang Yun put the dishes on the plate. "We'll talk about it when Xiaowen goes to school."

Jiang Yun had already eaten at the factory, so he ate some more with his younger brother.Xu Xiaowen ate, washed the dishes, and read a book for a while before leaving.

"Sister, Xiaowen is really sensible." Jiang Xinyuan couldn't help but said to Jiang Yun.

"Of course." Jiang Yun was very proud.Even though Jiang Ping is only one year younger than Xiaowen, she doesn't touch Yangchun water with her ten fingers at home, let alone cooking and washing dishes, I am afraid that even noodles will be overcooked.

"Sister... What do you think of what I told you?"

Jiang Yun was silent for a moment.

She was thinking about it while eating.It is really sad for a single woman to bring a child, Xiaowen is so sensible, she is half proud and half self-blaming.If the parents are capable, which family's children will know how to wash, cook, clean and subsidize the family at the age of 11?

Now Xiaowen is only in the first grade of junior high school, and the cost is not much.In the future, I have to go to high school and take the university entrance exam. In the future, I will marry a wife to repair the house, and I will have to pay for everything.She is a woman, what can she do?

"What kind of person?" Jiang Yun asked.

"In my cousin's village, his wife also died of illness, and his son went to junior high school like Xiaowen. That man is an employee of the winery." Jiang Xinyuan emphasized: "It's a regular worker. Why don't you meet him, sister? "

Jiang Yun's eyes were scattered, obviously not knowing what to do.

"I... I don't know, just wait and see..."

Jiang Xinyuan was a little anxious: "What are you waiting for! This man's conditions are really good. I heard that he has relatives who work in the school. In the future, he can help his child's education career."

"Xiaowen has good grades, so he doesn't need help." Jiang Yun couldn't help retorting.

"Yes, yes, yes..." Jiang Xinyuan echoed repeatedly: "Isn't there someone in the yamen who is easy to handle!"

Jiang Yun hesitated for a while, and then hesitantly said under Jiang Xinyuan's urging: "First...to see each other?"

Jiang Xinyuan completed the task, with a smile on his face, and promised that the meeting will be arranged at home, and we will meet at Jiang's house when the time comes.

Neither of the siblings thought of telling Xu Xiaowen about this.

Gently closing the door, Xu Xiaowen knew that there was nothing else to listen to.

In the second year of junior high school, he had a stepfather.Calculating the time, it's almost time to connect.In his previous life, Xu Xiaowen didn't know what was going on, and only after hearing the discussions of the three aunts and six wives did he realize that it was the Jiang family who led the way.The little uncle thought that he didn't know about his little tricks, and he was tricky at first glance. Before speaking, he had to check where he was, and kept asking him when he went to school after eating.He's not really a kid.

Well, if you don't talk, I won't pester you, I'll eavesdrop.

Sure enough, I heard great news.

"Why are you unhappy?" Fang Yunfeng squeezed over and pulled out the English test paper under Xu Xiaowen's arm, with a score of [-]. "Are you not happy with full marks?"

"It's not because of this." Xu Xiaowen said sullenly.

"what is that?"

Xu Xiaowen squinted at him: "Don't ask children about adults' matters!"

Fang Yunfeng laughed angrily: "You're still an adult without all your hair growing!"

Xu Xiaowen snatched the paper back, folded it, put it back in the drawer, and then said slowly, "How do you know that I buy long hair? Have you read it?"

Fang Yunfeng choked, "Of course I know."

"Really? Are you peeking at me?"

Fang Yunfeng blushed, as if he had been greatly insulted: "Who wants to see you, what's so interesting about you."

"Then how do you know that my hair is not fully grown?"

"I...Of course I know!"

"I knew you peeked at it, and sure enough... Zhuan, I didn't expect you to have that kind of habit..."

What hobby?Fang Yunfeng hadn't reacted yet, and his intuition was that it was not a good thing.It seems that nothing is right to say anything, poor child, being teased by the old fritters in the skin of a teenager, his face is purple and purple, the same color as his tablecloth.
