The gift that Lao Meng gave to Zhong Qingqing was naturally not some vulgar heirloom or a bracelet given by his elders when he got married, but a small silver-white sterling silver seal.

If it had been earlier before the hometown was divided into different parts, the old Chu family did have a lot of gold and silver jewelry, jewelry and jades. However, after a catastrophe, not to mention the gold and silver jewelry, even the furniture and benches in the hometown were destroyed.

The group of young men robbed everything, and smashed everything they couldn't move on the spot.

When Lao Meng was pregnant with Chu Chengmu, her family's living conditions were very poor and she couldn't afford to go to a big hospital. Naturally, it was impossible to know the gender in advance. At that time, even eating and drinking was a problem, and it was impossible to live like a pregnant woman.

Like Baicai, there are people who take personal care of her and have various instruments to monitor her body data. If Lao Meng hadn't been more willful and insisted on giving himself a surprise and waited until the end to reveal the answer, in fact, Xiao Baicai would have known the gender a long time ago.

The elders of the Chu family obviously favored sons over daughters, so before Chu Chengmu was born, his grandfather rummaged through boxes and cabinets and dug out a silver ingot hidden in the soil for emergency purposes. Originally, he planned to melt the ingot.

I want to get a sterling silver seal for my future grandson. If it is a grandson, I will naturally give it to him. If it is not a grandson, then the old man probably will not give this seal away.

But Lao Meng has suffered enough from patriarchal preference since she was a child. In addition, she is still the eldest sister and has a strong personality. So when her grandfather planned to get a seal, with her insistence and Lao Chu also feeling sorry for her, originally

She planned to make one big seal, but she had to make two. However, the one for her son was larger and the one for her daughter was smaller.

There is a cute little mouse on both seals. The side of the larger seal is etched with "Peace and Joy", and the side of the small seal is "Smooth and Carefree". As for the content of the seals, they are each etched with "curtain" in small seal script.

"Yuliancheng" and "Twilight Drums and Morning Bells". If Chu Chengmu was born as a girl, his name should be Chu Muchen.

Fortunately, the last one was born with a handle, so Lao Meng simply took away both seals. The reason was very reasonable. Since the child was a son, the two seals should be treated as one.

Grandpa was so happy when he saw that he had given birth to a grandson that he didn't bother to argue with her.

Originally, Chu Chengmu's seal was tied to his wrist with a yellow rope, but when he was a child, he thought it was too heavy, so he deliberately lost it several times. As a result, Lao Meng found it every time with great pains.

He came, and was immediately beaten, so much so that he hated the seal since he was a child. After coming several times, the seal of Chu Chengmu was also confiscated by Lao Meng, until now.

Compared with the small silver seal that Zhong Qingqing just got in his hand, Chu Chengmu's birth year seal had already been oxidized to the point of being oxidized. It was not only black but also had a slight yellow color. It seemed that

Lao Meng said that she had made preparations in advance. What she meant was that she washed the seal with baking soda, and then tied a yellow string and beeswax beads on the seal. But since they were all washed, why not do this for yourself?

Washed too?

"If you were a girl, your name would be Chu Muchen? Doesn't it look good?" There was still some time before dinner, and Lao Meng went back to feed Xiao Baicai. Lao Chu and Gou Dongci were still busy in the kitchen, and Zhong Qingqing sat down

Next to Chu Chengmu, he was playing with the small seal he had just received. After thinking about it, he simply put the small thumb-sized seal on his right wrist and said to Chu Chengmu, who was looking for TV series with the remote control.

.

When Chu Chengmu heard this, he glanced sideways at Zhong Qingqing and saw that she had tied the seal on her wrist like she did when he was a child. He couldn't help but shook his head in amusement. Looking carefully, he saw that the small seal on the big girl's wrist was

Although the silver-white seal had just been cleaned with baking soda, it still couldn't keep up with the girl's milky white complexion.

1 Seeing the big girl wearing the seal like this, Chu Chengmu felt his butt hurt again, and said with a grin:

"Well, my mother doesn't know why, but she seems to particularly like the sound of 'mu'. Xiaobaicai's name is also Chu Muxi. This seal is beautiful, but it oxidizes too easily. It is said that she wanted to make the little mouse look cute.

, Grandpa found several silversmiths but were not satisfied, so it was finally made after a teacher drew a picture."

"But when I was a kid, I got beaten a lot because of this broken seal. It was so heavy and tied so tightly that my hands got stuck every time I caught fish and crabs. At that time, I had to fight to throw this thing away.

I found a lot of places, like crab holes or bird nests.

Ah, fish pond, I threw it away several times, but my mother found it every time. I was very puzzled at the time, thinking that my mother had telepathy about this seal. Later, Yan Shumo drank too much,

This grandson just told me that it was him who filed the complaint."

Zhong Qingqing was very happy to hear this. She looked at the kitchen and the corridor leading to the bedroom. Seeing that no one noticed her, she rested her head on Chu Chengmu's shoulder, looked down at the small seal on her wrist, and said with a smile:

"I thought my mother would give me some kind of bracelet or something like that! Then she said to me in a serious tone, this was passed down from your grandma or grandma. It was what they wore when they got married. By the way, you said Zhong

Does Muchen sound good?"

Chu Chengmu was also very happy when he heard this. He glanced sideways at the big girl, then turned his eyes to the TV screen, lying on the back of the sofa, and said with a smile:

"It doesn't sound good. I still feel that calling Qingqing makes me feel better. You also think too much. Grandma did have a lot of jewelry when she got married, but they were snatched away by those soldiers and generals a long time ago. Even my mother

You can’t get anything out of your marriage, so how can you help me? As for my grandma! Lao Meng’s family is extremely poor. Even if she did accumulate some gold and silver jewelry for herself over the years, she wouldn’t be able to.

Give it to my mother."

Zhong Qingqing was led by Chu Chengmu to lean back on the sofa, looked up at his profile, pursed her lips and smiled:

"That means Xiao Yu'er won't be able to catch anything in the future? Is this unique? Last time I came here, I heard you say that you don't like your grandma's family. What's the matter? Your grandma's family also values ​​boys over girls.

?But aren’t you the eldest grandson?”

Hearing this, Chu Chengmu nodded slightly and said:

"As far as I know, I don't have any old things at home. If I have to give it to my sister, then I guess I have to give her my life seal. But my mother probably won't be willing to give it up. After all, this thing costs a lot.

Superstitiously speaking, it is connected with my life. As for my grandma’s family, it has nothing to do with patriarchal preference. They are just stupid and greedy. If you can’t deal with them, then don’t deal with them! I’m stuck.

, very disgusting.”

"Is it tied to your life? Then you are not allowed to give your seal to Xiao Yu'er, you know? This is my only one! When we return to Yuzhou later, you will take your seal away.

, Don’t give mom a chance!” Zhong Qingqing immediately became unhappy when she heard that this operation was going on, and fiercely tugged on Chu Chengmu’s arm and said.

Chu Chengmu couldn't help laughing when he heard this and said: "You are really stingy. Okay, I just ask my mother to give it to me when I leave later."

Hearing this, Zhong Qingqing hugged Chu Chengmu's arm tightly and said softly: "It's not that I'm stingy, it's that I own very little. It's my thing and I won't let it go."

"Well, I won't give the seal to my sister, so we can keep it, okay?" Upon hearing this, Chu Chengmu put down the remote control, touched Zhong Qingqing's little head, and replied softly.

"Well, I won't give it to anyone!" Da Niu tightened Chu Chengmu's arm again and replied in a muffled voice.

"Uh-huh, but Qingqing!" Chu Chengmu saw that the movement of the range hood in the kitchen had subsided. He patted Zhong Qingqing's hand around his arm and stood up to go to the kitchen to serve food.

"What's wrong?" Zhong Qingqing also noticed the movement in the kitchen, quickly let go of Chu Chengmu's arm, stood up, and asked.

"Do we think we are lovers and eventually become siblings?" Chu Chengmu winked at the older girl and said happily.

"Screw you! Hurry up and help in the kitchen, or I'll bite you again!" Upon hearing this, the big girl was stunned for a moment, then pushed Chu Chengmu behind him and said.

"Don't come here. The skin is broken. I don't know how many days it will take to heal. I have to be careful when I go to the bathroom recently." Chu Chengmu heard this and looked at the big girl's pink and tender mouth.

, couldn't help but shuddered, and replied.

"You still said, and you said, didn't you already say that I haven't learned it? Pay attention next time!"

It was almost ten o'clock when we had a belated dinner. As usual, Lao Chu added too much wine to the pickled fish. Other people use cooking wine to remove the fishy smell, but he likes to use high-strength white wine. Not to mention the smell of wine.

The fish tastes slightly bitter.

1 There were 5 people at the table. Chu Chengmu, Gou Dongci and Lao Meng all used their chopsticks once and stopped doing so. Only Zhong Qingqing and Lao Chu ate non-stop, and the older girl at the dinner table kept praising them.

Lao Chu is very good at his craftsmanship.

Every time Lao Chu made pickled fish, he was rejected by the whole family because it was either too fishy or the smell of wine was too strong. This was the first time he met someone from the same profession, and he was so praised by Zhong Qingqing that he was so excited that his face glowed, which was great.

It felt like meeting a close friend. I felt so happy that I even went to get some high-grade liquor that I had brewed before it could be dried. I was so close to the big girl that I almost cut off the chicken head and left a piece of yellow paper.

This scene made Chu Chengmu and the three people look at each other in shock, because all three of them could see that Da Niu really thought the pickled fish was delicious, and was not trying to flatter Lao Chu. Lao Meng suddenly thought of his son before the meal.

When I talked to myself about not letting my goddaughter enter the kitchen, I suddenly realized that there was something wrong with this girl's taste buds. At the same time, I was secretly vigilant in my heart, and I must never let her enter the kitchen in the future.

After dinner, Chu Chengmu and Gou Dongci took the initiative to take over the task of washing dishes as usual. Zhong Qingqing and Lao Chu, who had gradually adapted to each other's changes in status, sat on the sofa and chatted. Xiao Baicai was also hugged by Lao Meng.

He came out, and now he was lying in the arms of the big girl who had just eaten chewing gum. He opened his big eyes like black grapes and looked at this beautiful big sister spitting bubbles. The big girl lowered her head and teased the little cabbage.

, eyes full of tenderness.

Seeing that it was getting late, Lao Meng also started to yawn, and Chu Chengmu and the other three also got up and prepared to return to Yuzhou. Although Xiao Baicai was much more well-behaved than other children, she still had to breastfeed at regular times every day.

The quality of Lao Meng's rest was greatly affected. As the three people left, the lights in this small duplex suite were extinguished, and the night slowly fell into silence.

It was already past 12 o'clock when we returned to Wangtianhe. Although the big girl had a good drinking capacity and did not drink much at the wine table, she had just returned from abroad after all. She was already tired from the journey, and because of the jet lag, she also

Before arriving at the community where she lived, she fell asleep leaning on Chu Chengmu's shoulder.

After getting off the car at the gate of Da Niu's community, Chu Chengmu woke her up, and then the two of them walked into the community together. At this moment, the community located on the top of the hill was completely silent, except for the humid wind blowing by the river.

Move the small-leaf figs and weeping willows to make them rustle, leaving only the chirping of crickets from the corners of the lawn. Even the ubiquitous cicada seems to be falling asleep in the night.

Two tall men and women, 1 black and 1 white, walked in the garden of the community huddled together. The lingering breeze ruffled the silver-gray hair of the woman, and also ruffled the pool of spring water in her heart, but they were deep and lazy here.

In the dark night, both of them were enjoying this moment of silence, and no one wanted to open their mouths and ruin the comfort and tenderness at this time.

"I'm going up! Do you want to go up and have a look?" The tall man and woman had reached the bottom of a high-rise building at some point. The white figure hugged the black figure's waist, rested her head under his chin, and closed her eyes.

Eyes wide, he spoke softly.

"Go up! Get some rest early, we won't be here today." Upon hearing this, Chu Chengmu put his chin on the top of the woman's head, rubbed it gently for a moment, and then replied.

"Not today?" The woman in her arms suddenly started laughing as she remembered something.

"Well, it will probably be choked enough to be used in the next few days. It seems that the wound was rubbed by the pants just now, and now it hurts a lot." Chu Chengmu naturally understood what the woman in his arms was laughing about, and with a bit of helplessness, he said

He said angrily.

"Then let me help you apply the medicine?" The woman's voice was as gentle as water, with a hint of seduction as she said.

"Farewell, I'm afraid it will split!" Chu Chengmu shook his head and replied.

"Hahaha, virtue! Then I'm going upstairs. You should rest early." The woman let go of the man's strong and thin waist, took two steps back, looked at the tall and handsome boy in front of her, and said.

"Well, let's go! Good night, dear!"

"Good night Xiaomu!"

Watching Zhong Qingqing's tall and plump figure disappear into the corridor, Chu Chengmu turned around and left the community until the lights on the top floor came on. He found Gou Dongci who was smoking and waiting at the door. The two went to Ronghuahui to meet him first.

After getting rid of Gouzi, they returned to Luhu County together.

The dog's frame has been basically finalized for more than half a year old. In addition to growing in girth in the future, his shoulder height has almost reached its peak. Now Teemo's food intake has been reduced to two meals a day, which is far less than before.

He ate so meticulously, but the portion was large enough to satisfy him. However, no matter how large the portion was, after being forgotten by two men at Ronghuahui for a whole day, the little broken dog was still a little hungry.

Gou Dongci is a person who will complete his daily exercise plan no matter how late he comes home. After saying hello to him, he left the big man playing iron in the rest area on the first floor. Chu Chengmu led him to have dinner, or maybe it was midnight.

As the night became more suitable, Teemo went upstairs.

Back upstairs, Yan Shumo was still at work and had not returned. Chu Chengmu took a bath first. Under the stimulation of hot water, the tingling sensation from the injured area made him realize that his scratch seemed

More serious than imagined.

After taking a shower and changing into loose home clothes, Chu Chengmu sat upright on the big bed, checked his injuries for a while, couldn't help but smile bitterly, then got up and found some Yunnan Baiyao to apply on himself. It seems that tomorrow

During Senior Man's swimming lessons, I could only stand on the shore and watch.
