"Come on, eat more. You definitely won't be able to eat these things in the city." Now that the life at home was a little better, and because Xue Xue'er came back today, Old Lady Xue specially ordered the wives to kill a chicken to make soup.1
Improving everyone's food was also in order to welcome Xue Xue'er.
Old Lady Xue specially picked up a large drumstick and put it into Xue'er's bowl. She said, "Quickly eat Xue'er, otherwise it will be cold."
"Yes, eat the milk as well." The grandfather and grandson both picked up food for each other, waiting for each other to eat the first bite.
Third Xue could not bear to watch any longer. He felt sorry for Old Lady Xue who had been hungry for so long. He quickly advised, "Mother, you should eat quickly. Otherwise, Xue'er would not be able to eat first."
"You..." Old Lady Xue glared at Third Xue, but she still ate the first bite of dinner. She originally did not want her good grandson to know, but in the end, her third son exposed her.
She also didn't know how Xue'er would feel guilty tonight.
Xu Fangya also reacted and secretly used her elbow to hit Third Xue's waist, expressing her dissatisfaction.
Saying these words at this time, wasn't it deliberately making everyone unable to eat well? Poor Third Xue. He was complained by his mother and wife and suffered from this dissatisfaction.
While eating, Old Lady Xue also did not forget to ask about Xue Xiaowan and the rest.
"Xue'er, is the food that Fifth Uncle and your third sister are eating in the city alright?"
It was said that children travel thousands of miles and mothers worry. That city was far away. Other than the festival, Fifth Xue would not go home. It was nothing more than saving the travel expenses. Furthermore, he was afraid that he would not be willing to leave if he returned.
It had been a few months since they last saw each other.
If Xue Xiaowan had not wanted to go to school, they would not have had to go to the city.
Seeing the worried look on Old Lady Xue's face, the speed at which she ate slowed down. Xue Xue'er was quick-witted and said good things to make her happy, "Grandma, don't worry. Fifth Uncle and Xiaowan were doing well in the city. The director even raised Fifth Uncle's salary. Not long later, Fifth Uncle will bring the TV back for us."
Television?
Old Lady Xue smiled when she mentioned the television." Okay, okay, okay. When the time comes, I will bring you to watch it with me. You can watch whatever you want to see. "
In Donglin Village, there were only a few people who could have a television. Once anyone had a television, it was as if they had a great thing. Everyone in the surrounding villages knew about it.
The village captain bought one last time, and many villagers went to his house to watch it. If not for the dignity of the village chief, everyone would probably have stayed in his house.
They watched that television every day, as if it was a new treasure.
"Look at you. You've all lost weight. Eat more quickly. You're so healthy."
"Thank you for the milk."
The grandfather and grandson ate harmoniously. Third Xue and his wife were also happy. Everyone kept quiet about the mathematics competition. They did not want to give Xue Xue'er more trouble. This child had been sensible since he was young, so he gave the elders less worry.
Anyway, Third Xue and Xu Fangya had thought that it would be a good thing if he could win the award. It was fine if he couldn't win the award. It was enough for the child to grow up safely.
They did not expect to compete with the children in the city for such an undeserved reputation.
This night passed very quickly. Xue Xue'er finally brought a beautiful hope and fell asleep. The tip of her nose was a familiar smell. It was the smell of home.
It had been a long time since she went back to school.
