When Xu Miaomiao got on the bus back, the peaceful Liujiacun became uneasy.
dinner time.
People in the village all carried their rice bowls and squatted under the big tree in the middle of the village to eat, chatting about their parents' affairs and having a good time.
"By the way, why do I feel like I haven't seen Wen Xin's mother in several days?"
I don’t know who mentioned it, and then the villagers realized that they hadn’t seen it for several days.
This is a big deal.
Some people became more and more outrageous as they talked, especially Ma Yan, who started shouting as if she had found the source of the topic.
"Did Widow Xu run away with someone?"
These words were like thunder, exploding in the crowd.
"Widow Ma, don't talk nonsense. Maybe Wen's new mother has gone to her parents' house."
"That's right, don't say this nonsense. If Wen Xin's mother hears it, you won't get any good results."
"I think Wen Xin's mother is not that kind of person. Maybe something happened."
Because of the water source matter, most people in the village had some changes in their view of Xu Miaomiao, and they still believed in Xu Miaomiao to a certain extent.
Ma Yan's sharp eyes saw Wen Xin who was about to pass by at a glance, and pulled him over without saying a word, "Wen Xin, do you think your mother has returned to her parents' home?"
Liu Wenxin felt a little nervous when he saw so many people staring at him, but he shook his head.
When Ma Yan got the answer she wanted, she smiled with great confidence, "Let me tell you, Widow Xu must have run away with someone!"
Ma Ju couldn't stand her sister's arrogant look, and didn't believe that Xu Miaomiao was that kind of person. She asked, "Wenxin, is your mother busy with something?"
Liu Wenxin nodded immediately, "My mother went to the city to buy an oven and should be back soon."
He pretended to be calm, but inside he was panicking.
Mom said she would be back in two days, but today is already the third day.
When Ma Yan said this, she felt even more uncomfortable.
"Shit, why are you going to the market to buy something? I think Widow Xu just ran away with someone else. You can't buy anything on the street, so she went to the market to buy it."
Ma Yan would never believe it anyway.
"Assuming that the widow has such virtue, once she runs away with someone, she will definitely never come back. I will leave my words here. If you don't believe me, let's take a look."
As soon as Ma Yan finished speaking, she was slapped so hard that the bowl in her hand was knocked away.
As soon as Li Hongying walked in with a bowl, she heard Ma Yan pouring dirty water on the third daughter-in-law. She was so angry that she wanted to stuff Ma Yan's mouth with feces!
"Widow Ma, you think there is no one in our family, right? Today I will show you the consequences of being a bitch."
Li Hongying gave Liu Wenxin the bowl and chopsticks, threw herself on Widow Ma and started to do something secretly, twisting her fingers on Widow Ma as if she didn't want any money, which made Widow Ma scream.
Li Hongying is a well-known quarrel king in the village, and few people dare to provoke her.
Even though Widow Ma screamed after being beaten, no one dared to go up and start a fight.
Li Hongying twisted Widow Ma all over her body before pulling Liu Wenxin away.
When she got home, Li Hongying looked at Liu Wenxin seriously, "What on earth did your mother do?"
"My mother went to the city. She said she would be back in two days at the latest, but it's been three days now. Mom, do you think something might have happened to my mother?" Liu Wenxin said as if he had found a backbone.
Then he started crying.
The mood he had suppressed for a day was released at this moment. He did not dare to show it in front of his three younger brothers, and he has been holding on until now.
Li Hongying felt a little pain in her heart when she saw such an old grandson crying. "Okay, stop crying. Your mother may have encountered something on the road. She will definitely come back."
In fact, Li Hongying was not sure. According to the current situation of the third daughter-in-law, she should not be able to do such a thing, but the former third daughter-in-law could do it.
What if the third daughter-in-law becomes the same as before?
While Li Hongying was thinking wildly, a gentle voice broke their thoughts.
"Mom, Wen Xin? What are you doing at the gate?" Xu Miaomiao finally reached the door of the house with a big bag on her back, but she saw two people standing at the door not knowing what they were saying.
Liu Wenxin was startled when he heard the familiar voice. He turned around with a red face and tears in his eyes.
"Mom! You're back!"
Before Xu Miaomiao could see her eldest son's face clearly, she saw a figure rushing towards him.
She quickly looked at the pocket in her hand, making sure the contents inside were not broken.
Li Hongying showed a reassuring smile and said, "My third daughter-in-law, you are back. Please go inside and rest for a while."
When the three boys in the room heard the noise, they ran faster than rabbits and appeared in front of Xu Miaomiao one by one as if they were teleporting.
Liu Wenxin let go of Xu Miaomiao embarrassedly, and carried the big bag beside Xu Miaomiao into the house.
Xu Miaomiao entered the main room, while Liu Wenjun fell behind and closed the door.
As soon as she sat down, Liu Wenxin had already brought the water to her. She drank it in one gulp and breathed a sigh of relief.
"Mom, didn't you say you would be back in two days at the latest? Why did it take so long?" Liu Wenle said coquettishly while holding Xu Miaomiao's legs.
This question is also what others want to ask the most.
Xu Miaomiao looked at the concerned faces in front of her, and her heart warmed, "I planned to sell bread, so I spent an extra day in the city inspecting the market, so I came back a little late, but I brought gifts for you all."
When the boys heard the word "gift", their hearts instantly became happy.
Xu Miaomiao untied the big bag, first took out three cardboard boxes, and then took out a large bag of clothes. After a few glances, she gave the large bag of clothes to Liu Wenxin.
"Boss, give them a share of clothes. Each person has a set of casual clothes, four pairs of socks, and two pairs of pants."
Xu Miaomiao took out another pack of shoes and handed them to Liu Wenshao, "One pair for each person, try it out to see if it fits."
The boys were so happy when they saw the new clothes that they couldn't put them down in their arms.
I wish I could kiss you twice.
"Mom, why did you buy us long sleeves in this summer?" Liu Wenjun asked in confusion.
"You have enough clothes for summer. I happened to see the clothes on sale and bought them for you. With the weather like this, summer won't be long. You put these clothes away first and wear them again when it gets cold."
After Xu Miaomiao finished speaking, she took out a small bag and handed it to Li Hongying, "Mom, these are the short-sleeves I bought for you and dad. Do you like the color and style?"
Li Hongying was so surprised that she was speechless. She was mainly shocked by the third daughter-in-law's courage to spend money.
Normally people can buy one set of clothes a year which is pretty good, but the third daughter-in-law actually bought so many at once, and there were clothes for her and the old man!
Li Hongying suddenly felt embarrassed and refused to accept the call, "Your father and I have clothes to wear. You can give these clothes to your in-laws."
She and the old man worked hard every day, and even wearing new clothes was a waste.
