Chapter 425: One Night in Meijiazhuang (1/3)
Mei Zhonghua has three brothers, and there are about ten children below.
Except for Mei Zhonghua, who is one boy and one girl and two children; the eldest brother has two boys and three girls and five children; and the second brother has two boys and one girl and three children. Regardless of seniority, Mei Xiaoran and her brother are the bottom.
Except for Mei Xiaoran's brother and sister who have not yet married, the others have already married. The eldest brother and sister-in-law are kind of selfish, but like the elder brother and sister-in-law; the second brother is more selfish. A family, do not enter the house; the third brother and the third sister-in-law are Mei Xiaoran's favorite. The two are younger and like to play with the children the most. Both of them are the king of children; as for the fourth brother, they are also younger than Mei. Ran is three years older, just married for more than a year, and the child is only a few months old. The fourth brother belongs to the kind of people who don't talk much, don't look at the same age as Mei Xiaoran's sister and brother, but communicate the least.
As for those sisters, they were married a long time ago, and to be honest, they may not be able to see each other all year round, and the relationship is even shallower.
To be honest, among so many sister-in-laws, Mei Xiaoran’s sister-in-law is closest to her sister-in-law, and her sister-in-law can be said to be the cleanest and neatest daughter-in-law in the whole village. Everyone likes to hang out at her house. What? That's why Mei Xiaoran is staying with his sister-in-law tonight.
"Go to bed, it's getting late."
Seeing Mei Xiaoran still standing in the yard, Liu Xiaohui couldn't help asking: "Are you afraid? If you are afraid, your sister-in-law will be with you tonight."
"No, I was thinking, how many years have I not lived in your house."
"No, it's been several years."
According to the memory of Mei Xiaoran's past and future lives, it would not be thirty or forty years, but as far as this world is concerned, she has indeed never lived in Meijiazhuang since she was reborn. Unexpectedly, it was because of the college entrance examination that she went back to Zhuangzi to spend the night. Thinking about it, it really feels unspeakable.
"go to sleep."
Mei Xiaoran nodded, went back to the house and lay down.
She thought that she would not be able to sleep, but she actually slept soundly.
The sister-in-law put down the mosquito net for her in advance, and even the mosquito she feared the most could not reach her.
If it were in the county town, the weather just before the beginning of autumn would still be hot at night, but there would be no such thing as hot in the countryside.
Although there was no electric fan in the room, I lay on the bamboo mat after taking a shower, the coolness spread to my body along the spine, it was not hot at all, and it made people sleep very comfortable.
When Mei Xiaoran woke up, he heard the crowing of chickens.
Dare to love that she was woken up by a chicken.
When she came out of the house, Liu Xiaohui was cooking on the stove, "Ran Ran, are you awake? I'm about to make breakfast, and call both your dad and Lei Lei over to eat at my house this morning."
Mei Xiaoran walked to the water pressure well and pressed out the well water to wash his face and brush his teeth.
In those days, not many county residents used tap water, not to mention the rural areas. In the rural areas, almost every family used pressure wells for their livelihoods. Fortunately, Kangping County has abundant groundwater resources. From the 1980s to the decades afterwards, there was not much water shortage. Even in the later South-to-North Water Diversion, Kangping County also shared the water storage work of the South-to-North Water Diversion... Of course, these It's all something later.
When Mei Xiaoran washed her face, Liu Xiaohui had already used a large oceanic porcelain bowl to serve the rice, and the other bowl was filled with boiled eggs, steamed buns and side dishes.
"Sister-in-law, you are..."
"You are stupid, of course you are sending food to our father."
Liu Xiaohui giggled. Seeing her carrying the rice, Mei Xiaoran quickly grabbed the bowl containing the vegetables and steamed buns in her hand, "I'll take this."
The time interval is so long that Mei Xiaoran has forgotten these things.
Since grandma and grandma are getting older, they no longer cook. Instead, the eldest and the second two take turns to deliver the food.
Originally lived in the same village, they were not far away from each other, and it only took a few minutes to send a meal. But since Liu Xiaohui came in, she basically took the job of delivering food. She never asked her mother-in-law to deliver food, but her brother-in-law almost never delivered food to her grandma; Home until now, basically until now, it is also the second couple to deliver food, sometimes the son will come over to deliver the food, but basically they are not willing to use the daughter-in-law.
Delivering food to her grandma's house in the north end of the village, Mei Xiaoran has seen her brother squatting and playing on the millstone at the door, while her dad is standing in the wheat field chatting with neighbors!
"Uncle, I have cooked the food, you can take Leilei over to eat."
Liu Xiao
Hyemali put the food on the grinding pan, moved two more chairs, and called grandma out to eat.
Mei Zhonghua turned around and said to her parents: "Father, mom, I will go to Xiaohui's house for dinner. I have to leave after dinner. I will come back to see you when I have time."
"Go on your own, don't worry about us, your eldest brother and your second elder brother will take care of me and your mother, don't worry."
Mei Zhonghua responded and called Mei Xiaolei and followed Liu Xiaohui.
After breakfast, although everyone was reluctant, Mei Zhonghua had to do other things when he returned to the city, so he held back the reluctance and said goodbye to each other, and then returned with the two children.
After Mei Xiaoran arrived home, she went directly to the store to find her mother. She didn't come back last night. Her mother must be worried and she had to report to her.
Li Mingyun had just arrived in the store at this time and was hanging up her clothes. Seeing Mei Xiaoran came over, she said that she had no conscience and stayed at home for one night. He left her at home by herself and was so scared that she couldn't sleep. feel.
Of course, Mei Xiaoran knew that her mother was timid, so she explained with a smile: "You don't know my dad. Yesterday, when I went back to Zhuang to talk about my brother and I being admitted to college, Master Zhuang was also happy for us. It’s also celebrated with the wine on the farm. Then I’ll drink too much. I’m so drunk that I can’t come back."
"Even if your dad can't come back, you and your brother should come back."
"My brother drank too much, and got drunk while being dragged by those uncles and brothers in the farm."
"Your brother is also drunk?"
Li Mingyun was a little surprised. Lei Lei was afraid that he had not drunk liquor yet? This can't be so drunk!
"He slept and was fine, not as serious as you thought."
Mei Xiaoran came over to help her mother hang up the clothes, and asked smoothly, "Mom, my brother goes to school, will you send him off?"
"I was thinking about sending him, but I have to send you to school. I just thought, or let your dad send your brother to school, and I will send you to school."
"My dad? If you want me to say it, forget it? My dad is careless. It can be said that you can't count on it at all. You should just forget it."
Li Mingyun put down the clothes hanger in his hand, "What do you do? Actually, I don't worry about asking your dad to send Leilei alone, just thinking that you didn't do anything about it, so we can't leave you alone, right?"
