It is said that the quality of sleep is better after exercise, and this is not true at all.

In the early morning, Xu Zhimu slept particularly comfortably this day.

When I woke up in the morning, my face was kicked by a little foot again.

Xu Zhimu slapped his brother-in-law's butt hard twice as usual, and the crackling sound of firewood could be heard outside the house.

Xu Zhimu opened his phone and took a look, only to find that there were messages from several people.

There are also several missed calls from my mother.

Xu Zhimu was shocked. Yesterday, in order to go about his business without being disturbed, he deliberately muted his cell phone and did not change it back.

And looking at the intensity, it seemed like something big was going on, so Xu Zhimu immediately called him back.

The other end of the phone answered quickly.

"Hey, mom."

"You brat! Where did you go when you didn't answer the phone yesterday? Mom thought you were kidnapped by a pyramid scheme!"

Mom's voice was worried and angry.

Xu Zhimu said bitterly: "My phone is on silent mode and I can't hear you. Why are you calling me?"

There was a pause on the other end of the phone for a second or two, and then my mother said: "Yesterday, Xiaomi's mother chatted with me for a while..."

"Isn't it normal for you two to chat?"

These two mothers spend half a day talking together every day.

"Zhimu, tell your mother honestly now, what is the situation between you and Xiaomi now?" My mother's tone suddenly darkened. Xiaomi's mother found her last night, and after chatting for a few words, she mentioned something.

"What else can happen? It's just the same as before..."

"Just tell mom honestly, do you still like An Xiaomi now?"

As soon as he asked this question, Xu Zhimu was stunned. What was strange to him was not his mother's ability to ask this question, but why his mother asked this question in return.

"Mom, what's going on?"

"Hey..." Mom sighed, but she actually had the answer in her heart: "Xiaomi's mother told me about you two last night. Did you and Xiaomi... have any conflicts?"

Xu Zhimu thought for a moment: "Mom, Xiaomi and I actually have nothing to do with each other. What happened before is all in the past now."

"Son, do you have a girl you like now?"

Mom's words made Xu Zhimu pause for a while: "Auntie told you?"

"Mom guessed it myself. I gave birth to you and how can I still not understand you? If it weren't for the appearance of another girl, you would not have said such cruel words to An Xiaomi."

Xu Zhimu was silent for a while.

"So what happened, and what did Auntie tell you?"

The more Xu Zhimu listened, the more confused he became. Was An Xiaomi already showing off to his family? What on earth did Xiaomi's mother and his own mother say...

"Everything has been said, and my mother also knew it. On the day you left, Xiaomi cried alone in the room for a long time and didn't eat for a whole day. It was later that Xiaomi's mother heard the news and finally told all this.

"

My mother's voice was full of helplessness and distress.

These two children are obviously doing well, so why have they come to this point?

Xu Zhimu was stunned for a long time, remembering that the day he left, An Xiaomi was still waiting for him at the door early, and when he left, he playfully called "Brother Zhimu."

Now that I think about it, this girl probably didn't sleep all night, and she didn't know what time she was standing at the door waiting for her, even though she knew she was looking for another girl.

Just to talk to myself for a second or two.

Is this still the proud and arrogant little princess she once was?

"Son, are you still angry because Xiaomi rejected your confession before?"

Xu Zhimu shook his head: "No..."

The hatred in Xu Zhimu's heart has actually been forgotten. It's not that he hates An Xiaomi, it's just that the place in his heart now belongs to the junior school girl alone.

There is no room for a second person now.

Moreover, there is no way to tell what happened in the previous life and no one would believe it.

"Son, do you really have a girl you like now?"

"Um."

Xu Zhimu gave a firm hum, and his mother sighed again. It was complicated beyond words. In fact, the two families knew each other well, and both parties had watched their children grow up together.

In fact, I planned that when the two children grow up, they can move together.

But as they grow older, the gap between the two children becomes wider and wider.

An Xiaomi has always been the best child among her peers. She is beautiful, good at studies, close to and filial to her elders, and is liked by everyone wherever she goes.

As for my son, he entered a rebellious stage when he entered junior high school. He often went to Internet cafes with some naughty students and skipped school.

The results are getting worse and worse, and the gap with Xiaomi is getting wider and wider.

Even when he entered high school later, it was Xiaomi's father who found connections that allowed Xu Zhimu to enter the same high school as An Xiaomi.

Although parents don't say these things, they still see them. People's hearts are fleshy, and who doesn't feel sorry for their children.

So when An Xiaomi rejected Xu Zhimu's confession in high school, Xu Zhimu's parents actually understood An Xiaomi's parents' thoughts.

Parents on both sides also have a tacit agreement not to bring up these topics.

After all, the two families have been neighbors for twenty years. To be honest, they are closer than some distant relatives.

So Xu’s mother’s idea is very simple now.

"Son, mom supports your decision. You have someone you like, and mom is happy for you. But after all, we and Xiaomi's family have been neighbors for so many years. Xiaomi's family has also helped us a lot. Mom hopes

, even if you and Xiaomi really can't get together in the future, don't affect the relationship between you, you two are still childhood sweethearts after all."

My mother said with an uncomfortable feeling in her voice. After so many years, she actually regarded An Xiaomi as her own daughter from the bottom of her heart.

Of course Xu Zhimu knew that in his previous life, even when the two of them had been quarreling and had no contact with each other, An Xiaomi still gave gifts to his mother every year and festival.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! What's more, An Xiaomi has not done anything wrong in this life. He deserved to be rejected for that confession in high school.

and……

Xu Zhimu thought of the scene that night when An Xiaomi confessed to him in the school square, wearing school uniform and with tears in her eyes.

On this matter, the two have reached an even level.

Xu Zhimu didn't hate her. Some things were not right or wrong, just the order of appearance was different.

Moreover, my mother was right. Xiaomi's family helped their family a lot. They helped Xu Zhimu find a school, and later stepped in to help Xu Zhimu suppress the school's punishment. Moreover, Xiaomi's father helped Xu Zhimu handle many documents in Xu Zhimu's family.

Even without these, the two families have been friends for twenty years and have watched each other's children grow up.

Childhood sweethearts, this is a beautiful thing.

"Mom, I know everything, but I only like that girl now. She is very good to me, and I can't be sorry to her." Xu Zhimu is still lying in the home of his junior sister, spending the past few days getting along with her.

It can be said that the elementary school girl was just a little bit away from leaving her completely to herself.

On the other side of the phone, my mother said slowly: "Mom knows that I gave birth to you. Mom knows your personality best. Mom will not forcefully interfere in your affairs. Mom just wants to tell you that if possible, I will treat Ann in the future."

Xiaomi is a little better, as the neighbor took care of me at that time, otherwise my mother would... always feel uncomfortable."

Xu Zhimu understood that after all, only he knew what happened in his previous life, and there was no one to blame for things like feelings.

And it's not just herself, An Xiaomi has also changed a lot, if it weren't for the appearance of the junior sister.

The two of them may not have no chance, but now...

The scene of that day when An Xiaomi stood downstairs in the school and shouted to Xu Zhimu that I like you always appeared in Xu Zhimu's mind.

The girl's tears in her eyes and her playful and friendly smile lingered in his mind.

Eh……

"Mom, I understand."

Xu Zhimu nodded, childhood sweethearts, neighbors... yes, they are still neighbors after all.

"Mom, do dad and uncle know about this?" Xu Zhimu was still worried about this.

In fact, he has been quite afraid of An Xiaomi's father since he was little.

Of course, this fear is entirely because every time I have a big trouble, I always ask Xiaomi's father to help solve it, and I always feel a sense of shame in my heart.

Especially when it came to An Xiaomi's affairs, Xu Zhimu was really afraid that Xiaomi's father would bring trouble to him.

"You know how to be afraid." Mother Xu said angrily to her son, and then said: "Don't worry, they didn't know about this matter. Even Xiaomi doesn't know that her mother and I have already talked about this matter."

After a pause, my mother spoke again: "Son, is the girl you like from your school? What does she look like? How tall is she? How many people are there in the family? When will you bring her back to see you..."

"Mom, I'm only a freshman, are you too anxious?"

"It's just because I know you are a freshman. Remember to be careful when dating a girl. I don't want to become a grandma so early."

Xu Zhimu:......

Why are these adults' words so surprisingly consistent?

"We'll talk about it later. If it's okay, I'll hang up and go back to school today.

"That's right, Xiaomi will also go to school tomorrow. Remember to pick her up at the station. Yesterday... I have accepted her as my goddaughter. From now on, she will be your god sister and your childhood sweetheart. Even if she is not in love, take care of her.

point……"

"???" Xu Zhimu looked confused: "Mom, what did you say?"

My mother said: "Now Xiaomi is my goddaughter. By the way, Xiaomi's mother is your godmother. I will help you recognize her."

"You helped me identify it?"

Xu Zhi knew that the wood was covered with wood.

"Stop talking nonsense, remember, don't let Xiaomi know what you said today, and try to take care of others in the future. As the old saying goes, benevolence and righteousness are not in feelings..."

"Mom, is this what the old saying goes?"

"I can say whatever I want!"

"Okay, okay, you're awesome..."

Xu Zhimu hung up the phone, but lying on the bed, he felt that maybe this matter was not that simple.

He rubbed his temples with a headache.

Although I had known for a long time that such a day would come, I never expected this day to come so suddenly.

But that's fine. At least these words have been spoken, and there won't be any deeper misunderstandings in the future.

As for his relationship with his junior high school sister, he finally no longer has to avoid anyone... Well, of course, Liu Ningqing's family has not completely gone through this hurdle yet.

Just like that...the world with only An Xiaomi injured is complete.

Xu Zhimu got ready, looked at Xiao Wu who was still sleeping soundly, and spanked him twice more on the buttocks.

The suffocation in my heart suddenly felt relieved.

"Children are up, come and wash your face." When grandma saw Xu Zhimu coming out, she took out a kettle with hot water and added some cold water for Xu Zhimu to wash his face.

After washing his face, Xu Zhimu also walked into the kitchen. The junior girl was cooking vegetables. When she saw Xu Zhimu coming in, she couldn't help but feel a little hot.

It's so annoying... Now my mind is full of those things.

Xu Zhimu smiled knowingly, squatted next to his grandfather, and watched his grandfather put firewood on to cook the pot.

Grandma was also making pumpkin soup. Xu Zhimu said, "Grandpa and grandma, do you know what local specialties we have here? Are there many people planting orchards?"

"Here... there are some sweet-scented osmanthus trees, or some apple and apricot trees. In the village next door, someone has planted more than ten acres of grapes..."

Grandpa thought about it and found that in fact, this mountainous area has a large temperature difference between day and night, so it is still very suitable for planting some fruit trees and the like.

"How was the harvest?" Xu Zhimu asked again.

"It's not bad. The food in the mountains is sweeter than outside, and it contains less pesticides. Many people in the city like to buy some when they come here."

"Then why are there so few people planting trees here?"

"Farming is relatively easy. The seeds are prepared by the grain station and are not prone to pests and diseases, and the state also provides subsidies. It takes four to five years to harvest fruit trees, and it is not easy to buy. They are all from the mountains.

I am willing to spend so much money to eat fruit every day..."

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! To put it bluntly, it is because the risk cost is too high. Generally, if farmers do not farm for a year, they will have no income at all for the whole year.

Moreover, buying saplings is a big expense and you cannot afford to plant them at all.

Xu Zhimu nodded, secretly guessing.

After a while, Wang Ningning and Chen Wei also arrived.

"Come on, kids, sit down..."

Grandma happily held Wang Ningning's hand and walked over.

Xiao Wu also got up in a daze, but felt that his little butt hurt a little, so he rubbed it. As soon as he walked out of the room, he was hugged by Wang Ningning's "Wow, how cute" voice.

The last meal of this trip.

Everyone was chatting and laughing, but there was always a faint sadness of parting.

After saying goodbye, I don’t know how long it will take to see each other again.

The banquet has to be dispersed. After eating, you are packing your things and getting ready to leave.

"Good boy, come here when you have nothing to do. Grandma will cook for you..."

"Grandma, don't worry. Qingqing and I will definitely visit you often in the future. You and grandpa should take good care of your health."

Grandma held the hands of several children and couldn't help but shed tears. Wang Ningning and Liu Ningqing, both of whom had shallow eye sockets, also started crying.

Xu Zhimu and Chen Wei helped pack things in the yard, and helped grandpa chop up the newly picked firewood at the door.

Enough to last until the end of the year.

Xiao Wu also blinked at this moment and reluctantly said goodbye to Xu Zhimu: "Brother, will you come to play with me in the future?"

Don't worry, I will come here often in the future and I will bring you a remote control toy car next time." Xu Zhimu pinched his brother-in-law's cheek, he will be his family from now on.

"Yeah! Thank you, brother!" Xiao Wu happily pulled the corner of Xu Zhimu's clothes and shook it twice.

As for Chen Wei, he also came to the little yellow dog with a chicken bone.

"Brother Huang, we are destined to give you a bone to commemorate our friendship these days."

In the past few days, this little yellow dog has spent the most time with him.

We are all single, so we can’t help but cherish each other.

The junior high school girl went to the room and folded up quilts and other things, and looked around the familiar room. She thought that if she went away for a while this time, she might not be able to come back until the Chinese New Year.

Xu Zhimu also walked in and gently hugged the sad junior girl from behind.

"Qingqing."

"I'm fine..."

The warm embrace made her feel much more at ease. She looked at everything familiar and said in a gentle voice: "In the past few days, my grandparents have often talked to me about you. I always feel that you are all my own children. If I can keep doing this,

How wonderful it would be..."

Xu Zhimu listened, and finally turned the junior sister's body, looked at her tenderly, and said softly: "Yes, this will be my home in the future, our common home."

Liu Ningqing's eyes were red, and a charming smile appeared on her beautiful face. She couldn't help hugging Xu Zhimu and kissed him hard on the lips.

"Zhimu, I like you so much..."

"what is it call?"

Xu Zhimu looked at her with a smile, and Liu Ningqing's cheeks turned red.

"Old, husband..."

"Be good~"

Finally, everyone got into the car, and the two elders took Xiao Wu all the way.

"Child, you must slow down on the road, and remember to make a phone call when you get there..."

Grandma couldn't help but shed tears when she looked at the children. Even grandpa was weeping and secretly stroking his tears.

In the past few days, we have been getting along like a family. I don’t know how long it has been since we parted.

"Grandma and grandpa, please take good care of yourself and wait until we come to see you next time!"

"And brother Xiao Wu, wait until sister comes to bring you snacks next time!"

"Grandma, don't send it off. We'll call you when we get there!"

The sound spread throughout the twisting mountain road, and from a distance, the three figures of different heights could still be seen waving their hands.

Perhaps only those who have left their hometown can truly appreciate it.

This kind of waving goodbye may last a whole year.

Spring passes and winter returns, and from then on, my hometown remains in people’s memories...

Only the white snow remains.

Gone are the other three seasons.
