Father Cheng looked up inadvertently, and when he saw his wife's expression of worry, he couldn't help but sigh softly.

"Is the millet porridge ready?"

Liu Ying was startled and hurriedly looked at the millet porridge on the stove.

"Oh... It's fast! This honeycomb coal is unexpectedly fast!"

Cheng Muhai said warmly: "After all, this place is not our place, it is rented by the children. You should be careful when using things. If you don't understand, ask, don't break it."

Liu Ying thought about something and responded softly.

Cheng's father whispered: "I know you are worried about that girl. But what's the use of worrying? If she knew that you would worry about her, and if she felt sorry for her, she would not do this. We don't discipline her strictly.

She was rebellious and disobedient again, and she was the one who suffered from the future.”

He sighed and said, "We are all people who are about to step into the coffin. If you can't see anything, you have to see it openly, otherwise how can you live this life? Children and grandchildren will have their own blessings, so don't think too much about it."

Liu Ying wiped the tears in the corners of her eyes and said nothing.

Cheng's father said again: "Ayuan and Lingling are both very busy. There is nothing wrong with the fields in winter. Let's stay here and help whatever we can. Try not to cause trouble for them, and help whatever we can."

"I understand." Liu Ying whispered: "Ling Ling is a good child, I treat her like my own daughter."

Cheng's father smiled and said, "Your biological daughter is going to marry and leave you when she is in her teens. Ling Ling married into our family at the age of 20, and she has to live with us. Thinking about it, you have to treat her better than her daughter.

It's good."

Liu Ying also smiled.

At this moment, the sound of the door opening came from outside!

Father Cheng quickly got up and opened the iron door inside.

I saw that under the dim light, my son and daughter-in-law were packed in big bags, and they were packed on the bicycle.

"Dad!" the two shouted in unison.

Father Cheng nodded and smiled and opened his body sideways.

Liu Ying was startled and asked, "What are you holding? So many?"

Cheng Tianyuan explained: "She bought you three sets of clothes for changing clothes inside and outside. She also bought you two sweaters and two coats upstairs."

"...It's too expensive, right?" Liu Ying said quickly: "Ling Ling, there are still clothes to wear at home. Can these be returned? Just give me one set. Don't I still have one set?"

Xue Ling knew that the old man felt sorry for the money and smiled and said, "Mom, I can't refund it. I planned to buy more when I go back for the New Year. If you come in advance, I will buy it first and wear it for you. Mom, don't worry, these

All are real clothes, not expensive.”

Cheng Tianyuan parked the bicycle and brought a lot of dry goods and beef and mutton over.

"I'll peel some beef and mutton, and we'll have hot pot later."

Liu Ying was surprised: "It's not the New Year but the festival, why do you eat so much meat!"

Xue Ling hurriedly grabbed her and explained warmly: "Mom, mutton is suitable for eating in winter, very warm and nourishing. Beef is also suitable for you and dad. Let's not make too much, eat some greasy ones. You and dad both

Too thin, I need to make up for it.”

Liu Ying was still reluctant to spend money and looked heartbroken.

Cheng's father smiled and said, "Don't do this either. Ayuan has been in the city for several years. This is our first time. He must have wanted us to eat some good food and use some good food. Ling Ling like this

You should be happy if you are caring."

Liu Ying forced a smile and nodded.

There are several honeycomb stoves in the kitchen. Although the place is wide, it is still very warm.

Cheng Tianyuan made a small carbon stove and brushed the meat for the two old men to eat.

Liu Ying thought this meal was very novel and whispered: "It's good to eat in winter. The food won't get cold all of a sudden. It makes you feel warm and comfortable when you eat it."

Xue Ling smiled and said, "Then we will eat this way in winter nights from now on. Make some soup, and you can eat the rest after washing and throwing it down. It's delicious and convenient!"

That night, Cheng's father and Cheng's mother were both full.

After the meal, Xue Ling took out the apples sent by the unit, washed two of them, and cut them in half, one person divided into half.

Both Cheng's father and Cheng's mother were reluctant to eat, so they pinched them in their palms and looked at them again and again.

Seeing them in such a look, Xue Ling couldn't help feeling sour.

It seems that the two old men have probably not eaten apples for many years. That's right, even eating meat says they wait for the New Year and the Festival, otherwise there is no reason to eat meat.

She secretly made up her mind to work together with Brother Yuan to help the family get out of the predicament step by step.

Cheng Tianyuan boiled hot water to wash their faces and soak their feet, and took them to the small room.

"The bed is a little small, I have to squeeze it tonight."

Cheng's father said warmly: "Where is it small? In the past, our family of four slept in a small kang. Haven't they all been sleeping? It's pretty good, it's pretty good."

Xue Ling took out the new clothes for them to change, and took out the new quilts he bought for them and covered them.

Then, Cheng Tianyuan took the heater and plugged it in.

Cheng’s father and Cheng’s mother were wearing brand new and comfortable clothes, covered with beautiful and warm quilts, blowing warm wind, and eating sweet and crisp apples, and feeling a little unreal.

"The old man...it's too much like dreaming."

Cheng's father smiled softly and said, "Since we married Lingling, our lives have improved day by day. Ayuan said that she is very good at making money, and except for what she should eat and wear in life, everything else is very affordable.

These are all arranged by her for us.”

Liu Ying carefully chewed a small mouthful of apple, as if she was reminded of something and laughed.

"I still remember that in the summer, you had been sick for so long, and I was so scared that I could not even go to worship the Bodhisattva. The master who explained the signature said that as long as you welcome the new people, the new people will be noble people, and life will soon become rich.

The greater the wealth in the future.”

After hearing this, Cheng's father laughed and said, "If more than half a year ago, how could we dare to think that we would pay off all the debts at home, and we could still sleep in such a good bed, wear such a good clothes, and cover such a warm quilt!

The more wealth you will be in the future? OK! Let’s all wait!”

...

Through the small living room, another room.

The fan was whistling, Xue Ling was concentrating on translating, while Cheng Tianyuan, who was beside him, helped copy.

Xue Ling would use some gaps in his work to do some translations, and there were several copies that he could copy every night.

After writing one, he quietly went out and found that his parents in the small room next door had already fallen asleep.

Thinking that they didn't sleep all night last night and rushed over early in the morning, they must be exhausted.

He poured a cup of hot water with his hands and took half a cup, then took the rest back to the room and gave it to Xue Ling.

"Tomorrow I will go to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy two more cups. I will use my one for my parents."

Xue Ling was about to nod—

With a "bang!", a loud sound of the door closing came from the next house.

Xue Ling was shocked!

Cheng Tianyuan hurriedly hugged her in his arms and patted her back to comfort her. He pulled open the curtain and glanced at him, cursing him a few times without quality.

Xue Ling couldn't help asking: "By the way, have you met Ouyang Mei and sisters today?"

Cheng Tianyuan replied: "The next door has been locked tightly. I just saw that look, it must be Ouyang Xiang who came back."
