Just as Mrs. Chen had cooked the rice, several people followed the masons and knelt on the ground and had a full meal.
After eating, everyone went home to take a nap, waiting to come back for construction work at 2 p.m.
Yuanyuan was thinking about Mommy, and before she even took a few bites of rice, she was standing in front of Mommy.
He held her hand and lay with her, "Mom, Yuanyuan really misses you."
"Promise Yuanyuan never to leave me again, okay?"
Looking at her daughter's appearance, Xu Li's heart softened, and she hurriedly stretched out her hand, touched her head, and said with a smile: "Silly girl, Mommy only has such a sweetheart like you, how can she be willing to leave you?
"
"Don't think too much. When you go back to school, you must listen to the teacher and go to school well."
"do you know?"
The little girl closed her eyes and felt Mom's sincere teachings. She was extremely dependent on her. At the same time, she was unwilling to let time flow. She really wanted to stay with Mom like this all her life. "No, Mom, I don't know anything now."
No, I just want to be pampered in your arms and be your favorite little princess forever."
"Be good and be obedient." Xu Li turned to one side and faced her, "Now that Mom is back, she won't leave you and Daddy. When you come back from school, you can stay with Mom as well.
.When the time comes, Mommy will take good care of you, okay?"
"Then Mom must keep her word." The little girl said, getting closer to her Mom.
"Yuanyuan is obedient, and Mommy will be obedient as well." Xu Li comforted her daughter.
She never misses her without leaving home. In fact, during the time she returned to her parents' home, what tormented her was not just physical pain.
More importantly, it comes from a kind of spiritual sustenance and fear. She misses her daughter, and even more misses the man who risked his life for her.
She even wanted to return to this home to be reunited with them all the time, and she was willing to go back to the same fearful life as before.
"Yes." The little girl responded, as if she had abandoned all her worries, lying in Mom's arms and smiling slightly.
The lunch break for students is from 12 noon to 1 pm. In fact, this is the case for rural students in this era. After staying at home for an hour, they have to be sent back to school by their parents. They cannot get a short break until after school in the afternoon.
of liberation.
Xu Li coaxed the little girl and told her some bedtime stories.
After the little girl fell asleep, she had time to move her body and walk out of the hospital.
Came to the construction site next door.
Wu Huiliang, Wu Huiping, and the two elders of the family were playing on the ground, looking at the spatial layout of each house that was gradually taking shape on the foundation.
Immediately I sighed with emotion about the good days to come.
"Dad, Mom, Huiping, Huiliang, what are you talking about? Do you want me to go over and check the details?" Xu Li stood on the flat ground outside the foundation and shouted.
Only then did they notice that Xu Li walked out with a weak body. One of them jumped down from the foundation and said:
"Ali, it's time for you to recuperate. You should be lying on the bed at this time."
"Yes, daughter-in-law, I am responsible for the family affairs. Although my old man is very young, he was also good at building houses when he was young. I can definitely help Huiliang."
"Sister-in-law, just listen to my dad and go back. It's been hot lately and this is not the place for you."
"Let's go, daughter-in-law. Mom will accompany you back to the house to chat."
…
Xu Li felt deeply moved by the love and care of her family.
But when I thought about the recent construction of a house at home, I didn't even contribute much to the family.
I felt more or less self-blame in my heart: "Dad, Mom, Huiliang, Huiping, you don't have to worry about me. My health and bones are better than before. And I was used to working before, but I feel idle all of a sudden."
Not used to it. Just let me work at the construction site in the afternoon."
Hearing this, Wu Huiping and his second wife were stunned for a few times without saying anything. Ever since she got married, all the work at home and outside the home has been done by herself. Although Wu Huiliang often ran away from home before, she never
Stop. Now she is not used to having her lie in bed every day? She is indeed a good woman!
"Hahahaha..." For a moment, they all laughed, looked at Wu Huiliang and said, "Did you see that your wife already has a problem with us?"
Wu Huiliang also felt that she had married a good aunt. She pursed her lips and became shy. After a few seconds, she said to Xu Li: "Oh, you aunt, you complained to me a lot when I went out for a run.
, now that I have shouldered everything, you say that I won’t let you work anymore. Tell me, is it you who are difficult to maintain, or is it my fault? "
Xu Li, of course, knew that he was joking for her. She immediately blushed and walked over, pinched him in front of her family, and said with a smile: "What's wrong? I've always been in charge of this family, haven't I? Say a few words to you.
Are you still unwilling?"
"Ouch, it hurts..." Wu Huiliang said, pretending to move closer to her, and then softly put his head on her shoulder.
He hugged her and smiled and said: "You can say a hundred words to me, and I'm willing to do it. Who makes you my aunt-in-law?"
"You're so beautiful." Xu Li took a big step forward and saw that his center of gravity was unstable and he almost fell to the ground.
He covered his mouth and smiled, "If you have time to talk like that, you might as well chip away at a few more bricks!"
"No, I still need to save my strength so that I can go to some places at night." Wu Huiliang said, then he walked towards his mother-in-law and held her hand tightly.
"Hahahaha..." The family members around started laughing again.
After laughing for a full two minutes, they began to express their opinions.
Wu Huiping was the first to say: "Brother, look at what you said, don't you feel more powerful after finishing the work?"
"How about giving us two old men a fat grandson next year?" Old Man Wu also joked.
"Go, you guys, why are you making all kinds of jokes?" Aunt Chen waved her hands at them, with a hint of blame and a hint of approval in her words. Then, she walked up to Xu Li and said with a smile, "
Ali, don't listen to these big men's nonsense, let's go, mom will take you to the next door."
Xu Li nodded awkwardly and shyly, and glanced at Wu Huiliang.
Reluctantly, he left him and headed to the next door.
On the way, I was urged by Mrs. Chen again about having a second child.
"Ali, tell the truth, do you want another child?"
"think……"
"Mom, there happens to be an old man here. When he has some free time, he will take you to the county town to pick up a few pairs. You are in such good shape. After eating, I will keep it for Huiliang to give birth to a big fat boy."
