Chapter 467: A little bit of energy
Xu Jingsi took the ring and carefully put it on Xu Jingniang, holding her rough but warm fingers, and she felt an indescribable happiness in her heart. She had never known that her mother's hands were so warm.
Holding her mother's hand, Xu Jingsi suddenly realized that the true relationship between mother and daughter should be like that between her and Xu Jingniang, a filial mother who enjoys being filial. Unlike before... she didn't have it until her death.
I held my mother's hand once, even if she gave her tens of thousands of dollars.
Xu Jingsi looked at the gold ring on her mother's finger and said sincerely, "Mom, it looks beautiful!"
Xu Jingniang opened her palms and looked at the light-transmitting part of the glass window. "The fingers are deformed, so they look better." But the corners of her mouth were filled with unstoppable happiness.
"Hey, I'm just patronizing you, have you eaten?" Xu Jingniang said as she quickly took the ring off her finger, and carefully put it into the small box.
"Just wear it." Xu Jingsi couldn't help but said.
"Wear it again when we celebrate New Year's greetings on the first day of the new year." Xu Jingniang's face almost turned into a chrysanthemum with joy, "I'll cook noodles for you to eat."
"Stop it, I'm not hungry either. Let's eat together tonight." Xu Jingsi then looked around.
This is my mother's bedroom. The walls are white and the windows are large. Sunlight filters in through the glass. Even if the stove is not lit, the room is warm.
She still used the old furniture from before, a wooden bed, an old bronze wooden table, and a wardrobe from the 1950s and 1960s placed against the north corner. The paint was peeling off, and there was no new furniture at all.
Xu Jingsi looked around and said, "Mom, why didn't you change some new furniture?"
"Mom, it's good to use these. By the way, your room is cold, so I'll light a stove for you." Xu Jingniang said and walked out.
Xu Jingsi grabbed her and said, "Mom, I'll sleep on the same bed as you, so don't order it."
"I won't sleep with you."
Xu Jingsi laughed and said, "Do you still dislike me?"
"That's right, I just dislike you," Xu Jingniang pretended to be angry, "Let's go, Mom will light the stove for you. You have a rest first, and I'll make scallion pancakes for you to eat in the evening."
Xu Jingsi said as she walked, "I like to eat scallion pancakes the most."
Xu Jingsi had a separate room, the one on the east side. As soon as she entered, she was surprised. Although the furniture in the room was simple, it was all new and had not been painted. It smelled particularly good with the unique fragrance of elm wood.
"Mom, everything I use is new." Xu Jingsi said in surprise.
"Yeah, it's too cold. There's no time to paint. I'll wait until you leave after the new year." Xu Jingniang opened her cabinet, took out the quilt and sheets.
Xu Jingsi took it and laid it out together with Xu Jingniang. The red and green checkered sheets, quilt covers, and pillowcases had a special sense of age. She knew that these were Xu Jingniang's dowry.
"Jing, um..." Xu Jingniang said as she made the bed, but she hesitated to speak.
Xu Jingsi was confused when she heard this, but after a second thought, she understood and immediately said, "Mom, please wait a moment." She put down what she was doing, ran to the table, picked up her bag, and took out a small red bag.
He handed the notebook to my mother, "Mom, take a look."
"This is..." Xu Jingniang took it and took a look, she was even happier than wearing a gold ring, "Hey, your marriage certificate!"
Xu Jingsi curled her lips and said, "Yes."
"So..." Xu Jingniang was so excited that she couldn't even speak. "So, their family doesn't dislike you?"
"What's there to dislike?" Xu Jingsi said with a smile, "Your daughter is so capable, they won't dislike her."
"Then you shouldn't come back," Xu Jingniang still thought, "How can you celebrate the New Year at your parents' house after you're married?"
Xu Jingsi twitched her lips, "Are you afraid that if I celebrate the New Year at home, my family will be poor?"
"Nonsense!" Xu Jingniang pretended to be angry, "Mom is afraid that your mother-in-law will say something about you!"
Xu Jingsi took the marriage certificate, put it back in her bag, and said to her mother, "She won't talk about me. They are sensible and don't care about these red tapes. They originally said they would come, but there was something unexpected in the capital, and even Wen Ting
Jundu followed."
If she tells her mother that her mother-in-law is not good, her mother will inevitably be worried. Instead of making her worry, it is better to report the good news and not the bad news, so as to save her old man from worrying. Who knows that they will only meet each other in the year of the monkey.
Xu Jingniang looked at Xu Jingsi suspiciously, "I really don't dislike you?"
Xu Jingsi is considered a battle-hardened person anyway. She whispered mysteriously, "I bought my mother-in-law a twenty-gram gold bracelet and bribed her."
"Twenty grams?" Xu Jingniang didn't know much about the value of this weight.
Xu Jingsi nodded, "I can probably buy seven or eight of your rings."
Xu Jingniang opened her mouth, raised her hands in front of her, spread her fingers, and imagined herself wearing rings on seven or eight fingers, "How much does this cost?"
Xu Jingsi chuckled, "So you believe it?"
Xu Jingniang nodded and said, "It's better to have money."
"Mom, you won't be jealous, will you?"
"How can I be jealous?" Xu Jingniang sighed, "As long as there is a way." She looked at Xu Jingsi and asked in a low voice, "Have you consummated your marriage with Xiaojun?"
Xu Jingsi... "Mom, why do you ask this?"
Xu Jingniang tugged on her sleeve and said, "There's nothing to be embarrassed about. Tell me the truth."
Xu Jingsi nodded shamelessly.
"Be more confident and try to give your first child a boy. As long as your mother-in-law has a grandchild, everything will be easy."
"Mom, don't worry so much." Xu Jingsi said, "Let's turn up the stove quickly. I'm going to sleep in a while. I'm exhausted from driving all the way."
It's still a boy. She has no plans to have a baby next year. With so many things to do, she won't have time to have a baby.
"Grandma!" Xu Fei's cry for grandma came from the yard.
"Xiao Fei is back!" Grandma said happily, "Is it cold or not?"
"I'm not cold, mother," Xu Fei shouted, "Where do you put your things?"
Xu Jingniang stretched her head and looked outside, cursed, and then said, "I just came back and there are so many naughty children!"
Xu Jingsi also looked over and smiled. There were five or six young people standing in the yard. Those carrying bags were holding bags, and those moving boxes were moving boxes. However, among the crowd, the handsome Xu Fei was obviously the most conspicuous.
He is no longer the young man who pulled the cart with all his strength under the scorching sun with the rope stuck in his shoulders!
Although Xu Jingniang said this, she was still very happy, "Make up the bed, Mom, go out and take a look."
"Why."
Xu Jingniang went out. Xu Jingsi slowly packed up and sighed comfortably. From now on, she will start the farmhouse vacation mode!
