Chapter 50 Changed Mind

After dinner in the evening, Xu Laosan went to the yard to smoke a bag of cigarettes. When the smoke on his body was almost dispersed, he came back and waited for Xu Xinger to feed Ye Shi to drink medicine. Then he sat down and said, "Xing'er, Dad asked about your body today, and then asked us if we want to take over the lock?"

Ye was stunned at first when she heard the words, and then said happily, "Dad really said so? Didn't you scare me?"

"Can I scare people with such a big thing?" Xu Laosan leaned forward slightly and continued, "Dad asked me to come back and discuss it with you. If you agree, you can choose a good day to find someone to witness and officially adopt the lock to our house."

Xu Xinger was in a good mood when she heard this and ran in from the kitchen and asked, "Really? When is a good day?"

Xu Laosan pinched the bridge of her nose and teased her, "What's wrong with you? I'm so happy."

"I like Locker. I want the lock to be my brother in the future." Xu Xinger turned around and lay on the door frame and made a grimace at Xu Laosan. "Mother and Taoer also like locks, and we are not willing to take him away again."

"Well, let's leave the lock, and you have to take care of the lock like a younger brother in the future." Xu Laosan said with a smile.

"That's natural. Anyway, even if our family is not a successor, the uncle and the second uncle's family will not care about him. It's better to inherit it. It's just right. It's convenient for everyone in the future." After saying that, Xu Xinger withdrew her head and went to the stove to wash the dishes.

Xu Laosan was stunned when he heard this. He turned his head and looked at Ye and said speechlessly, "Where did you learn these words from? Another set."

"There are many tongue-cheek people in the village. Xing'er can't be idle at home every day, and she has to hear more when she goes out, but she is right. Although Suo'er hasn't stayed in our house for a few days, I'm really reluctant to take him away." As Ye said, she became sad and raised her hand to wipe away the tears from the corners of her eyes.

"Now that I'm not in good health, I'm afraid I won't be able to have a baby in the future. Now that I have taken over the lock, even if I don't have it in the future, at least someone will hold a funeral spirit and beat the flag for me."

"I've told you to see a doctor well. Don't think about anything." Xu Laosan saw Ye crying again and quickly comforted him, "The doctor has said that you don't have to worry about everything and take medicine to raise it. You think about things every day, and people don't get better after taking medicine and suffer. Isn't that too cost-effective?"

"Okay, this is a happy event. I won't cry. When Lizi's confinement comes out, I will take my two children to stay at her mother's house for a while and let my grandfather and grandma also see the two children." Ye burst into tears when he heard the words.

Xu Xinger coaxed the two little ones and watched Taoer go to the kitchen to wash themselves. Then she asked Xu Laosan, "Dad, didn't you say last time that we were going to separate? Did you say anything about it?

As soon as he mentioned this, Xu Laosan suddenly shriveled his eggplant. He lowered his head and didn't look at Ye or Xu Xing'er. He said in his throat for a long time and said, "Mother Xing'er, I'm thinking about the separation..." He said and looked up at Ye's face and said, "Why don't we slow down a little longer?"

Ye hasn't spoken yet. Xu Xinger said urgently first, "Dad, when do you have to slow down?" You have also seen the appearance of the aunt and the second aunt. If you don't split up quickly, the second aunt can do the scolding at our door.

Xu Laosan lowered his head again and said in a low voice, "I saw my father go to the cemetery today. The old man only went back to the cemetery when he was depressed. I was afraid that he would see it so he didn't dare to get too close, but he still listened to a few words. The old man really didn't want to separate, so I..."

Xu Xinger still wanted to say something, but was stopped by Ye Shi with her eyes. She only heard Ye Shi say, "Let's listen to the old man about the separation."

Xu Laosan was suddenly relieved and took a breath. He looked at Ye with red eyes and grabbed her hand and said, "You have suffered a lot with me for so many years. It will be the last time tomorrow. Next time, no matter what happens, shall we insist on splitting up?"

Early the next morning, Xu Laoshi set up a good car and took Xu Lingzi to pick up Mrs. Xu in Batang Village. Xu Laosan went to work. Xu Xinger couldn't go out and had to stay at home to take care of Ye. She thought that she had not seen Shanzi for several days and didn't know if he had gone to the mountain again.

"Xing'er?" Brother Cheng approached the stove and called, "Are you at home?"

"It's in the Westinghouse!" Xu Xinger answered in the room.

Ye Shi also said when he heard the voice, "Brother Cheng, right? Come on in."

"Aunuch, are you better?" Brother Cheng picked up the curtain and came in and said, "My mother has gone back to my grandma's house these days, otherwise she would have come to see you long ago. My milk asked me to bring a few goose eggs and said that she would use it for you to mend your body."

Brother Cheng said and poured the goose egg in his skirt on the table and carefully circled it with his hand to avoid the goose egg rolling on the ground.

Ye has always made friends with Brother Cheng's mother. Knowing that he could refuse, he was not polite. He directly thanked him, sent Xu Xinger to take the basin and put it away, and then asked, "Why does your mother come back when she goes back to her mother's house? But what's wrong with your grandma's house?

"My second uncle's house is building. My second aunt now has a big belly, and my mother has a scratched her foot again. My mother went back to help cook and clean up, and she can't come back for a while." Brother Cheng sat down and wiped his sweat.

Xu Xinger brought a bowl of herbal tea and put it directly in Cheng's hand and said, "But if you come from the next door, can you walk with sweat? Hurry up and drink it to cool down.

Brother Cheng looked up and took a few sips, wiped his mouth and said with a smile, "It's really cool!"

"That's natural. I put it in the well water early in the morning. I was supposed to wait for my father to come back to drink, so I'll give you a discount first." Seeing that he had drunk in a few sips, Xu Xinger filled him with another bowl, but did not hand it directly to him, but put it on the table and said, "Drink this bowl slowly. Be careful that it's so cold that your stomach hurts."

"Hmm." Brother Cheng nodded with a smile and answered, and said to Ye Shi, "Aunt, my mother said that our two families live door to door. You have a good relationship with my mother. If there is anything we can do to help, send Xing'er to tell me. Don't be outsiders."

"I know." Ye said with a smile, "If your father goes to see your mother sometime and asks him to send a message to your mother, just say that my lock is waiting for her to come back to be the godmother!"

Brother Cheng is so young that he didn't understand the meaning of Ye's words. When he went back and told him, the old lady immediately understood that Xing'er's family was going to pass over the lock. After thinking about it for a moment, he nodded and said, "This is a good way to have the best of both worlds."

"Ah?" Brother Cheng was confused and didn't know what riddles the adults were playing.

Near noon, Xu Laosi and Xu Lingzi finally picked up Mrs. Xu. The old lady still held her anger towards Old Xu in her heart and scolded him both inside and outside on the way. When she got home and got out of the car, she was still a little relieved. She ignored Old Xu and went straight to the West Room.

Xu Lingzi sighed and followed up and said, "Mom, since you are back, don't be angry with your father. Dad has that temper in his life. Aren't you looking for anger by yourself?"

Before Mrs. Xu spoke, she heard old Xu shout in the east room, "Lingzi, pull out more vegetables in the field, and then cut a piece of meat. Call the whole family over for dinner tonight and talk about the separation!"

Mrs Xu had already gone to the kang to pack up the burden. Hearing this, she almost jumped up and turned her head and asked Xu Lingzi, "What did your father say? About the separation?

"The third brother didn't say that he wanted to separate the family before. Later, yesterday, the second sister-in-law and the eldest sister-in-law also told his father that they wanted to separate the family. Dad said that when his mother came back, the whole family sat down to discuss." Xu Lingzi finished speaking very quickly. She was afraid that Mrs. Xu would nag again, so she quickly dodged and said, "Mom, I'm going to buy meat."

"If you buy a fart meat, do you still eat meat when the family is about to disperse? Let's eat the northwest wind!" Mrs. Xu said angrily and pushed open the door of the east room and asked, "What on earth are you thinking?" If they want to split up, they will split up?

"It's not that I want to split up. People will come at night. Ask yourself!" Old Xu's head turned over on the kang and threw his back to Mrs. Xu.

In the evening, people came very well, and even Ye was helped by Xu Laosan. Chen, Li and Xu Lingzi were busy in the kitchen. Mrs. Xu was angry and refused to help. She had been sitting by the kang with a calm face.

Xu Xinger was too lazy to look at her face. She simply went to the kitchen to help. Although she couldn't cook, she could at least help Xu Lingzi see a fire and add firewood, and occasionally helped turn over the pot when she was too busy.

Ye has been passing through the door for so many years, and she is basically used to Mrs. Xu's face. As long as she doesn't come at herself, she will sit aside and look at the lock and chestnuts to minimize her sense of existence.

It's faster for several people to work together. It didn't take long for all the dishes to be served, with a total of eight dishes and one soup, which is really rare and rich. It's almost time for the New Year's food.

Xu Ershuang didn't wait to sit down, and his eyes were already staring at the meat and vegetables, hoping to see all the meat into his stomach through his eyes.

Lao Xu saw that most of the children were secretly swallowing saliva and waved his hand to signal everyone to sit down and eat. "Let's eat first. Let's talk about what you have to eat. Now you can't eat this meal."

When he said this, the meal was particularly depressing, and only a few children who didn't know what was going on were very happy.

Although Xu Lingzi took the chestnut to help her, Xu Xinger had to take care of Taoer and hold the lock in her arms. She was still thinking about how to win more benefits for her family without separation. She had no intention of eating at all. Her chopsticks only moved a few times to make a look, and she didn't know what to stuffed. Put it in your mouth and swallow it after a few bites.

Although Li was thinking about the separation of the family, he really ate a lot of food. He was full. He put down the bowls and chopsticks and said, "Okay, Dad, after eating, let's talk about the separation!"

Seeing this, Lao Xu also put down his bowls and chopsticks and said in a low voice, "The eldest, the second and the third family all said they wanted to separate. What else do you think?"

Xu Laosan suddenly said, "Dad, we listen to you and won't be separated!"

Old Xu's head was happy when he heard the words, and Li's face suddenly changed.
