This is definitely an opportunity to exercise character and endurance. Ding Xilan believes that after this time, her ability to tolerate will definitely be greatly improved.
Ding Xilan's mood after finally returning to her hometown after a long absence is difficult to describe in any words. After all, this is the place where she has lived since she was a child. The mountains and rivers here all look so kind and lovely.
Compared with this, the unpleasantness encountered along the way can be ignored.
After entering the mountain village, Ding Xilan felt something was wrong. Lei Shaoyang had been quite noisy along the way, but now, he was very quiet.
She turned around and saw Lei Shaoyang with his head drooped, looking unhappy. Then she recalled what Aunt Zhu, the wife of Dr. Zhang, the tofu stall owner Aunt Li, and the fish seller Uncle Zhou said in the town. She
I understood, but I couldn't help but laugh: "Are you still angry? Don't mind, they are all unintentional, people in the mountains speak so straightforwardly."
"You're still laughing." Lei Shaoyang was already in a bad mood, but when he heard her laughter again, he couldn't help but said angrily, "Let's try it instead."
Ding Xilan laughed enough, and then she felt like she was relieved. Who told her to lose control of her emotions so much along the way? "Okay, this is not your fault, is it? People can't choose their own appearance.
Besides, there's nothing wrong with you, you always look so young, right?"
Obviously, Lei Shaoyang did not take her words well, "It would be fine if I was really younger than you. But, obviously I am older than you, but those people insist on saying that I am younger than you."
How many years ago, I asked you if you were my child bride. If it were you, how could you not be angry?"
Hearing this, Xiaofang also forced herself to hold back her smile. She had been in Lei Mansion since she was a child, and she often heard people making fun of the young master's face in private. Therefore, with a little immunity, she could still control it. But Ding Xilan
But it's different. Apart from what Lei Xiangxiu told her last time, this is the first time she has experienced such a thing personally. Therefore, no matter how good her self-control is, it is still difficult for her to be emotionally unstable.
Moved.
"If it were me, I would definitely be angry. But if it weren't me, I would just want to laugh..."
Lei Shaoyang looked at her smile and finally understood what it means to smile like a flower. Not only was he not angry, but the corner of his mouth curled up in a smile. "Madam, you have such a beautiful smile."
Hearing this, Ding Xilan couldn't help but hold back her smile, "What are you talking about? By the way, let's go to Uncle Liu's house later. I will take you to my house later."
After that, she turned back and said as she walked, "I haven't been home for a long time. I don't know if our house is still there."
"Everything depends on the lady. Xiaofang and I are not familiar with this anyway."
In Ding Xilan's memory, the people in the mountains took good care of her, especially the businessmen Liu Nan and his wife in the village.
Liu Nan travels all over the country doing business, and every time he comes home, he will bring some small gifts to Ding Xilan. Although they are not worth much, in the mind of young Ding Xilan, this is something that completely belongs to him. And Liu Nan's wife Qiu Rong
She is often concerned about Ding Xilan's daily life. She is a master of female celebrities. If Ding Xilan's clothes are torn, she will mend them for her. Because she knows that this child is stubborn and she will definitely not know how to wear new clothes if she is given them.
Accept it. It was also under her guidance that Ding Xilan learned such good needlework. Therefore, in Ding Xilan's mind, she had long regarded the two of them as her own relatives.
Because Liu Nan is the only one in the village who goes out to do business, relatively speaking, his family environment is quite good, and he is considered to be one of the better living in the village. Who said that businessmen dislike the poor and love the rich? Liu Nan is usually kinder, who
If the family had any difficulties, he would do his best to help. Therefore, the couple's reputation in the village has always been good. When he learned that Ding Guxu was ill, Liu Nan provided assistance. However, Ding Guxu was a scholar.
Naturally, he was arrogant and unwilling to accept it, which led to subsequent tragedies. From then on, the couple understood what Ding Guxu was like, so they had no choice but to secretly take care of Ding Xilan so that the child would not suffer so much.
Naturally, the Liu family's house cannot be compared with the wealthy families in Suzhou, but it is still unique in this small mountain village. When Ding Xilan and the others arrived at the door, the two brothers who were playing in the yard immediately came over and said, "Xilan
elder sister."
Ding Xilan also happily hugged the two children, "Xiao Wen, Xiao Wu, I can't believe that you have grown taller again after not seeing each other for more than half a year."
Lei Shaoyang, who was standing aside, felt uncomfortable watching these two children under ten years old being so affectionate with Ding Xilan. So, he moistened his throat and deliberately coughed a few times so that Ding Xilan could hear his dissatisfaction.
Hearing Lei Shaoyang's voice, Ding Xilan ignored it and continued: "Have you missed Sister Xilan?"
"Yes." Xiao Wen, the one year older of the two brothers, replied, "But mother said that sister Xilan left and would not come back. It turns out that what mother said was right."
The childish voice and tone made Ding Xilan couldn't help but smile and said: "Your mother is not a fairy, so of course she can't predict everything. By the way, where is your mother?"
"Mom is working in the house, sister Xilan, I'll go over and call her." After Xiao Wu finished speaking, he twisted his fat figure and ran towards the house.
After a while, a woman in her thirties came out. Her clothes were not very flashy, but they were very suitable for her status. Her figure was relatively slender, and she did not have the postpartum body deformation of ordinary women. She was of medium appearance and looked relatively slim.
easy going.
When Ding Xilan saw the person coming, she couldn't help but throw herself into her arms, "Aunt Liu."
