Chapter 12 In the future, I will serve Xiaolu and Yuzhu to read
When Ge Xiaozhu returned to Xujia Village, she clearly felt that the villagers looked at her differently from before.
As for what exactly is the difference?
She couldn't explain it, but she just felt it was different.
From time to time, villagers who saw her greeted her.
"Xiaozhu is back?"
"Hey, Xiaozhu, your trail is great! I really didn't realize it before!"
"You gave birth to a wonderful son!"
…
etc.
When she walked into the house, she suddenly heard the crow of chickens in the chicken coop in the corner.
Since her chickens and ducks were taken away a few days ago, her chicken coop has been quiet these days. Suddenly she heard the crow of chickens in the chicken coop again. She was startled and subconsciously looked at
past.
Looking through the wooden fence of the chicken coop, she saw several chickens in the chicken coop.
"Mom! Are you back? You don't have to go to the fair tonight, right?"
The joyful voice of his daughter Ge Yuzhu came. Ge Xiaozhu heard the sound and went to see her daughter running towards her happily.
"Where's your elder brother?"
Ge Xiaozhu asked worriedly.
Ge Yuzhu: "Brother is making soup in the kitchen! Old duck soup, hehe."
"Duck soup?"
Ge Xiaozhu frowned and hurried to the kitchen outside the back door.
In fact, Xu Tongdao, who was simmering soup at the entrance of the stove, had already heard his mother's voice, but he did not go out to greet her because he knew that when his mother came back at this time, she would definitely ask him many questions.
But he doesn't like explanations.
Yuan Shikong's hard life for so many years has long developed a taciturn temperament.
It's not necessary, he usually doesn't like to talk.
He thought that when he faced his mother later, his sister would help him explain some issues to his mother, which would save him some trouble.
Footsteps soon came to the kitchen door.
His mother's voice also reached his ears, "Xiaodao! Didn't I tell you that those things are gone when they are gone? Why are you disobedient? What if those people beat you? You silly child
!”
Xu Tongdao looked up silently with a complicated expression. He looked at his mother who was in her early forties in front of him, and felt mixed emotions in his heart. Before his rebirth, his mother was already over sixty and had just passed away.
When she died, most of her hair was already gray and her face was full of wrinkles.
Although the mother in front of her is a little older than her peers, in Xu Tongdao's eyes, she is really too young.
Enduring the sour feeling in his heart, Tongdao Xu smiled slightly and said calmly: "Mom! Do you think I am okay? People are bullied when they are good, and they are ridiculed when they are good. Our family is very difficult now, but the more we get better, the better.
At this time, we must not be cowardly! By the way, has your fever gone?"
Ge Xiaozhu was a little surprised.
She felt that her eldest son was a little abnormal today. Whether it was his expression or the tone of his words, he felt like he had suddenly grown up overnight, so she frowned, looked at Xu Tongdao in confusion, opened her mouth, and sighed: "But those
No one is easy to mess with, and you are only 17 years old...Did they beat you?"
"Mom! Don't worry! Brother is fine. Brother even beat Xu Hengbing!"
Ge Yuzhu comforted her mother with a brisk tone.
It saves Comrade Xu an explanation.
"What? Xiaodao, you also beat Xu Hengbing? Can you beat Xu Hengbing?"
Ge Xiaozhu was very surprised, and subconsciously stepped forward to pull up Tongdao Xu who was sitting at the door of the stove, and looked carefully up and down, back and forth.
Xu Tongdao did not struggle and allowed his mother to look at him worriedly. He just reached out and touched his mother's forehead to see if her fever had gone away.
As soon as his hand touched her forehead, Tongdao Xu frowned because he obviously felt that the temperature of his mother's forehead was a bit high and her fever had not gone away.
"You're really not hurt?"
Ge Xiaozhu breathed a sigh of relief, but couldn't help but confirm with his son.
Comrade Xu hummed, "Mom! Do you still have the antipyretic medicine? Do you want to go to the fair this afternoon?"
Ge Xiaozhu: "I've finished taking the antipyretic medicine, but I'm fine. Well... I heard Xiaoyu's father tell you about you, so I asked for leave from the captain. I have to rush back soon. I can't make things difficult for the captain.
."
Xiaoyu’s father?
Comrade Xu thought about it in his mind and realized that his mother should be talking about Ge Xiaoyu and her father, Ge Zhiping.
Speaking of which, he even liked Ge Xiaoyu before!
But when he thought of Ge Xiaoyu at this moment, he felt no emotion in his heart. After all, for him, that was already a long time ago.
Before his rebirth, although he had always had a difficult life, he had liked several women, and he had even been married once.
As for Ge Xiaoyu, whom he had a crush on when he was a boy, it has long been a dusty memory in his heart.
Now that he is 17 years old again, all he wants to do now is to lead the family out of trouble and let the whole family live a good life.
As for Ge Xiaoyu?
He doesn't have the heart to think about her now, and he doesn't think she is important.
Tongdao Xu turned his head and glanced at the steaming pot lid. After thinking about it, he took out a wad of money from his trouser pocket, took out two ten-dollar bills and handed them to his sister Ge Yuzhu.
"Mom's fever hasn't gone away yet. Go to Doctor Wang and buy some medicine for her! Remember to bring an umbrella to prevent it from raining!"
These days, medicines for treating fevers and colds are very cheap. Sometimes, only one antipyretic medicine is needed to reduce a person's fever, and each antipyretic medicine only costs one or two yuan.
But if you have a fever, you sometimes need to buy some anti-inflammatory medicines, so he gave his sister twenty yuan to buy these medicines, which was definitely enough.
"Hey! No need to buy any more medicine! What are you doing with this money? I'll be fine in two days..."
When Ge Xiaozhu saw his son giving money to his daughter to buy medicine, he immediately reached out to stop her, but Comrade Xu pushed her hand away, put the twenty yuan into his sister's hand, and at the same time tilted his head to signal her to go quickly.
.
The younger sister glanced at her mother, agreed, and trotted away. Before leaving, she couldn't help but look back at the wad of money in Xu Tongdao's hand.
She didn't know that her eldest brother had so much money.
"well!"
Seeing that he couldn't stop it, Ge Xiaozhu sighed, and then noticed a wad of money in his son's hand, which he estimated to be several hundred.
"Xiaodao, where did you get so much money?"
"If the two pigs and some chickens and ducks that were robbed don't come back, we need the money back."
As Tongdao Xu spoke, he looked down at the wad of money in his hand, hesitated slightly, counted out six hundred yuan and handed it to his mother.
"Mom! Keep these six hundred dollars and keep them as registration fees for Xiaolu and Yuzhu to start school."
Ge Xiaozhu subconsciously took the money in his hand and asked hesitantly: "What about you? Will your high school entrance examination results be out soon? What if you get into high school... tuition fees..."
When it came to the issue of tuition fees, her brows were full of sorrow.
Comrade Xu smiled with a very calm expression, "Mom! There must be one person in our family who makes money. How can you afford to study for the three of us by yourself? No matter whether I can pass into high school or not, I will study in this book."
I won’t read it anymore. In a few days, I will find a way to go out and make money. From now on, I will support Xiaolu and Yuzhu’s studies!”
