The 80s Chronicle: Addiction To the Army’s Young Wife
Chapter 077: [Don't touch me] 20,000 words first.
Naturally, Qin Zhao prepared some books for Xu Ning, and he didn't have time to read them before. This time he left Qin's house in a hurry, so he packed up a few books and gave them to Xu Ning.
It was eight o'clock in the morning when the train arrived at the train station in the city where their home was located.
After leaving the train station, Qin Xuejuan suddenly said, "Didn't Ningning say that she would spend two days in the city?"
"Don't play anymore, let's go home early and give grandma a surprise." Xu Ning just said it casually in order to distract his mother. In fact, there is no place to play in the city.
The couple saw that she didn't seem to be reluctant, so they decided to go home directly. Now they can go to the car and still have lunch.
Of course, they also bought a few snacks outside the train station to take back. At the Modu train station, before leaving, Qin Zhao also bought a lot of local specialties and stuffed them into the salute.
Qin Xuejuan liked Qin Zhao very much. If she went back a few hundred years, maybe she would really let that child be her son-in-law.
When the family of three came back, they didn't greet the old lady in advance. It was already past twelve o'clock when they got off at the entrance of the village.
"At this time, my mother has finished eating." Back in his village, Xu Jianjun's spirit became obviously happier.
Qin Xuejuan is naturally not bad either, she finds that although she grew up in Shanghai, Xiangshan Village makes her feel more at home now.
"The leftovers can be eaten after a little reheating." Qin Xuejuan didn't care at all, the joy in her eyes could no longer be contained.
Seeing his daughter-in-law sweep away the dullness before, Xu Jianjun felt happy too.
No matter what happens in the future, as long as their family is happy together, it will be better than anything else. This is his greatest wish in this life.
If there is a chance, he will try to continue to go up. He doesn't want his wife to be looked down upon by others. During the few days in Shanghai, he doesn't care about the way those people look at him. This is not something he can tolerate.
At this time, almost no one in the village was walking outside. After all, the temperature at noon was very high, so the three of them came back quietly.
I opened the door and went in. The yard was very quiet. I thought the old lady was taking a lunch break, but found that the old man was sitting on the ponytail in the main room watching TV.
"Mom!" Xu Jianjun yelled.
At first, Yu Chunhua thought she was hallucinating again, but habitually looked back, and found that her son, daughter-in-law and granddaughter had already walked in with big bags.
"Didn't you say you were going for ten days and a half months? Why did you come back so soon?" Yu Chunhua got up and took two steps forward quickly, and stopped at the door.
Xu Jianjun originally wanted to hide it, but Qin Xuejuan didn't want to keep silent.
She put down the things in her hand, came to the old lady, bent down and bowed deeply.
"Mom, all these years I know that you have always been worried in your heart. I am afraid that I will leave Jianjun and Ningning behind like some educated youths, but I have never thought of that." Qin Xuejuan looked at her mother-in-law sincerely, " The relationship between my parents and I has not been particularly harmonious since I was a child, only my grandpa really loves me, so this time my parents called me and said that my grandpa was seriously ill, so I decided to go back and have a look."
"What's the matter with you?" Yu Chunhua was a little puzzled. In her opinion, as long as their family can come back together, the heart will be let go, but looking at the attitude of the daughter-in-law, it seems that there is still some concern for her. do not know things.
"I just want to tell you that I really treat you as my own mother. Although you sometimes talk badly, I know you love me." Qin Xuejuan shared what happened to the family of three in Qin's house with her mother-in-law. After saying it again, I found that my mother-in-law's face suddenly turned cloudy.
The old lady really didn't expect that the two in-laws of the Qin family who had never met were so cruel, and wanted to divorce their own daughter and marry a dead wife. Is this something that parents can do? ?
Of course, if the relationship between the couple is not good, there is no way.
But the young couple has not blushed once since they got married for more than ten years, and they still look like honey. How can they bear it.
Could it be that this girl was picked up from a stinking ditch?
"Mom, don't worry, I have never thought of leaving Jianjun and Ningning behind. This is my home since I got married. Can I... be your wife for the rest of my life?" Speaking of these words , Qin Xuejuan almost broke down in tears.
Seeing the sad expression of her daughter-in-law, Yu Chunhua couldn't bear it any longer. She raised her hand and pretended to be rude and wiped her tears, and said angrily, "Why are you crying for such an old man? Let Ningning make fun of her." You. Fortunately, you are back, otherwise it would be my turn to cry. "
These words made Qin Xuejuan burst into tears, holding her mother-in-law in front of her, crying heartbreakingly.
After all, she was sad in her heart. She thought that the mother-in-law she didn't like treated her coldly and warmly, but her biological parents wanted to drive her to a dead end.
"I'm sorry, I've already gone home, no one can hurt you." It's rare that the old lady didn't let Qin Xuejuan get up, and even gave her son a glare, "What are you doing standing there, why don't you wash your daughter-in-law's face with a basin of water."
"Hey, let's go." Xu Jianjun turned around and went out to fetch water.
Xu Ning didn't cry, on the contrary, he was very happy in his heart. Does this mean that the disaster of his parents has passed?
After a long time, Qin Xuejuan washed up, her eyes were already a little red and swollen.
The old lady over there had already heated up the food, and even fried two more dishes briskly.
"Clean up and eat, I'm hungry." The worries in her heart for many years disappeared at this time, and her mentality became brighter.
"Aren't you starving? When we came back, we ate two steamed buns in the car, so we weren't really hungry." Xu Jianjun put the dining table on with a smile, "We came back by train, alas, the food on the train is so expensive, According to my appetite, I won't be able to eat many meals for this month's salary."
"You're an idiot." The old lady scolded with a smile, "Stop talking nonsense, eat quickly, and go to sleep after eating, you must be tired after two days of driving."
The three of them ate around the dining table, while the old lady was embroidering insoles with a needle and thread, and occasionally looked at them with a smile.
If it wasn't for the fact that the old lady couldn't hold back that face, she probably would have started humming a ditty at this time.
Xie Zheng knew that their family of three had returned. After all, his house was next to the Hutong of the two families, and with the windows open in summer, the footsteps and voices of the three could be heard.
He didn't go to say hello. At this moment, he was lying on his bed with his arms behind his head, and the news from the imperial capital was in his mind.
In fact, he received a call from the imperial capital yesterday morning, asking a little boy whom he hadn't seen for many years to take care of Xu Ning's family.
During Xie Zheng's years in Xiangshan Village, the courtyard house in the imperial capital left to him by his parents was taken care of by this young family member.
Qin Xuejuan seemed relaxed when she came back, but in fact, the Qin family's actions were stopped by Tang Chen.
Otherwise, if the Qin family wants to keep Qin Xuejuan forcibly, Xu Jianjun really has nothing to do. No matter from what point of view, as long as the Qin family insists on not seeing their daughter for many years and wants to keep her to accompany the two old people, Xu Jianjun will be worth tens of millions. There is also a reason to sit on wax.
If Qin Xuejuan obeyed the Qin family's arrangement, maybe they would still feel sorry for their only daughter.
But if Qin Xuejuan blindly resists, then the Qin family will inevitably take tough measures for the sake of the whole family.
He knew Tao Chenghui, he had investigated it in his previous life, and he developed very smoothly after going into business. At least until the new millennium, Tao Chenghui was a well-known rich man in the city of magic. But obviously, Tang Chen's strength was much stronger than Tao Chenghui's. It was enough to suppress the situation by coming forward, and forced the Qin family to look away from Qin Xuejuan's body, feeling jealous, and that was enough.
After lunch, Xu Ning accompanied his mother to pack the dishes and returned to the main room.
The matter of the parents came to an end, and then it was her own matter.
This matter has been shelved since rebirth, but it can't be put on hold forever, otherwise the ready-made golden fingers will be wasted by him, which would be a pity.
"I have something to tell you." Xu Ning sat on the mat and looked at them with a serious expression.
The old lady didn't say anything, but Xu Jianjun couldn't help laughing, "You girl, what do you want to tell us?"
Xu Ning was very nervous at this moment, her father was still making fun of her, which made her feel a little wronged.
"Just say what you have to say, let's listen." The old lady gave her son a look, "Don't interrupt."
"Well, I'm just a straw in your old eyes when I come back this time, not as important as your daughter-in-law and granddaughter." Xu Jianjun pretended to be aggrieved.
Xu Ning put his hand on his chest and took a deep breath, "Dad, what I'm talking about is a very serious matter."
"Dad is wrong, you tell me." Xu Jianjun sat up straight and stopped joking.
Xu Ning suddenly felt that her throat was extremely dry, and she wanted to drink water, but she endured it. There is no way to hide this matter, her age limits the role of her space.
"Actually, my body has changed a lot." Just after saying this, the expressions of the three people in front of them changed immediately, but Xu Jianjun became nervous, while Yu Chunhua and Qin Xuejuan's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law thought of female characteristics That side went.
Qin Xuejuan nodded, "That's right, Ningning is thirteen years old this year."
"..." Xu Ning wanted to cry, "Mom, it's not what you think."
"No?" Qin Xuejuan was puzzled, "Then what is the change you are talking about?"
"It's my body that hides a strange treasure." Xu Ning gritted his teeth and said, "It's a mysterious space."
Only Xu Jianjun didn't understand before, but now the three of them are collectively confused, why can't they understand at all?
Of course they knew this sentence, but they still felt as if they were listening to a scripture.
"What is the mysterious space?" Xu Jianjun asked.
"Didn't I fall into a coma for several days after being injured? When I was almost in good health..." Xu Ning told them the matter in detail. She didn't know what happened in her previous life. On the one hand, I don't want to make the three relatives feel sad, "Didn't Mom say that the water outside is bad to drink, in fact, the water we drink in our house has always been brought out from the space, but the concentration of space water is too high, so I Blended with home water and space water."
After speaking, worried that the three of them would not believe it, Xu Ning demonstrated it in front of them.
The three of them saw the thin stream of water from Xu Ning's fingertips, and their minds went blank.
The water in front of her is real, so it means that there is really a mysterious space in her body, but is this thing good or bad? Whether it will cause any harm to Xu Ning's body, and how this thing appeared, they all want to ask clearly.
I kept muttering in my heart, but my mind couldn't keep up, and my mouth seemed to be stuck with glue, and I couldn't speak at all.
"Ningning, how did this thing appear? Could it be that there is no chance at all? Will it cause any harm to the body?" Qin Xuejuan asked three questions in a row, her tone hurried and her expression nervous.
Seeing his mother's appearance, Xu Ning felt very warm in his heart.
What they are most worried about is their own bodies, not the benefits that this space can bring.
After all, Xu Ning made the right move in this move.
"Grandma, do you still remember what I told you more than two months ago, about my long nightmare?" Xu Ning looked at grandma.
The old lady nodded, indicating that she still remembered.
"After waking up from that nightmare, this space appeared." Xu Ning said seriously: "I don't think this space will do me any harm, mom, don't worry."
Qin Xuejuan frowned, "What's the matter with the nightmare?"
"It's just a nightmare. I remember it very vaguely. It's all a little fragment. I'm fine."
It took a lot of work to convince them that they were really fine, and the whole family focused on Xu Ning's space.
Both Xu Jianjun and Qin Xuejuan knew the word "space", but they only knew it literally, and of course alien spaces and the like were not counted.
But according to Xu Ning's explanation, this is basically a different dimension, but there is nothing else in it, but a spring and a piece of land.
So the appearance of this space is for farming?
But what's the use, their family has six acres of land anyway.
Knowing their question, Xu Ning turned his hand, and a tomato the size of a small lantern appeared in his palm.
"This space is amazing, and the vegetables grown are very delicious." He reached out and handed the tomato, which was bigger than her palm, to the old lady, and then took out two more to give to his parents, "My grandma and I went to the market for the first time. , I bought a few seeds, and they ripened within a few hours after planting them, and these tomatoes were all the same size, no big or small difference. Of course, I also bought cucumber seeds, but the cucumbers that grew out were all lethargic. I ate it, but I hid it in my room and didn’t dare to take it out.”
She was quite embarrassed to say this.
The three of them looked down at the heavy, attractive red tomatoes exuding a strong fruity aroma, and suddenly felt that the meal just now was for nothing, and their stomachs seemed to be empty.
"Grandma, parents, please try it first, and we'll talk about it later." Xu Ning urged with a smile.
The three of them didn't refuse, they opened their mouths and bit down, and then the expressions of all three of them lit up.
"So delicious?" Qin Xuejuan was extremely surprised.
"Indeed." Xu Jianjun nodded again and again, "It's sour and sweet, and this kind of sweet and sour is completely different from the tomatoes we used to eat. The sweetness is a little stronger, but it doesn't cover up the sourness. The combination, the taste is really amazing.”
Looking at the old lady who was eating tomatoes, her expression was unusually soft, and she was obviously very satisfied.
"How is it? Isn't it delicious?" Xu Ning was beaming with joy.
"It's really unusual!" Qin Xuejuan nodded, met her daughter's gaze, and couldn't help laughing, "Mom knows what you mean."
When Xu Ning heard this, he immediately gave a thumbs up, "You are really my own mother, and I can't hide anything from you."
"What are you mother and daughter playing charades?" Xu Jianjun was amused by the interaction between his wife and daughter.
Qin Xuejuan didn't hide it from them either, "Maybe we can do this business."
"Selling fruit?" Xu Jianjun also pondered, "This is pretty good."
"Of course it's not just selling fruits. There are many things worth studying." Qin Xuejuan looked at her husband, "After eating this tomato, would you like to eat something else?"
"It's from the girl's space, I'm sure I don't want to eat anything else." There's no need to ask if it's okay. When you have steamed buns to eat, will you still eat tree bark and grass roots?
"So, we can do this business. Now private enterprises are booming, and private hotels are also popular..."
Xu Jianjun's eyes brightened instantly, "You mean to take a high-end path?"
"Yes, Ningning's space has the functions of planting and preservation. Even if it is sent to the first-tier cities, it is not difficult. It may be a little troublesome in the early stage. When the market opens up, everything will be easily solved." Qin Xuejuan looked at her daughter. Cute smile, but also a little worried, "Can you take care of it like this?"
Xu Ning nodded nonchalantly, "I'm fine, the space is different from the time outside, I stayed in it for a long time, and it's just a little time outside, I haven't really calculated the specific time flow rate , The previous two times I slept and planted at night, woke up before dawn, and it was already ripe after entering."
"What have you grown, girl?" the old lady asked suddenly.
Xu Ning smiled shyly, "The first time I found a few peanuts in the kitchen and planted them. Didn't our family eat porridge with peanuts in it before? It was grown in the space. Grandma was still there. Thought I used peanut seeds?"
The old lady really thought so, but because her granddaughter didn't use it much, she didn't care about it.
The peanut seeds are all carefully selected by her, and the quantity must be large, so it is not a problem to eat them three times or twice.
Afterwards, the family had a brief discussion. This matter required detailed planning, so naturally there was no rush, and they didn't say they would put it into action immediately.
But to Xu Ning's surprise, the old lady went directly to the kitchen, dug out a bag of seeds from somewhere, and gave it to Xu Ning.
"Grandma, what kind of seed is this?" Looking at the seeds in the cloth bag, they are larger than soybeans, but a bit flat and rough on the surface.
"Who knows, goblin seeds, it's been years." The old lady didn't care too much.
Xu Ning got excited, Goblin, isn't that just ginseng? By the way, do ginseng seeds look like this?
It was the first time she had seen it.
"What are you happy about? It's been so many years, and I don't know if it can grow out." The old lady continued, "This is because a beggar came to our village many years ago. I gave him two cornbread, and he gave me Such a package of things, said to be goblins, who knows."
Xu Ning was not shocked by grandma, "You will know if you plant it."
Carefully put them back into his room, Xu Ning came out in front of his family, and took out some tomatoes, lettuce and Chinese cabbage left in the space, "I will grow the vegetables at home in the future, no need to spray pesticides or catch insects, plant them at night, You can eat it in the morning."
"Look, I can get it for you." Seeing her like this, the three couldn't help laughing.
But after laughing, the old lady looked at the three of them with a straight face, "This matter is rotten in my heart, no one can tell it outside, as long as our family knows, otherwise it will be bad for Ningning."
Xu Jianjun and his wife nodded solemnly, of course they knew the seriousness.
As for the daughter, the two are also at ease.
To them, she held back for so long before tentatively speaking out, and she would not speak to others.
But in the end, you have to be careful, otherwise you will really kill your daughter.
Because of Xu Ning's incident, the three of them didn't take a break. After three o'clock in the afternoon, the old lady directly decided to make dumplings tonight.
"Use the Chinese cabbage grown by Ningning." The old lady underlined, "Jianjun went to cut two catties of meat back."
"Okay, I'll go now."
Today is really a happy day for their family, at least in Xu Ning's view.
So this dumpling must be made.
Farmhouses in this era are like this. Whenever there is a happy event in the family, they will make dumplings to celebrate.
And even in the previous difficult survival era, no matter how poor the family was, dumplings were always made for the New Year’s Eve dinner, which represented not just the same food, but a culture and a folk custom.
That night, it was rare that no one was with him, so Xu Jianjun drank a cup of wine, and the old lady also drank a little for an unprecedented time, which showed how happy she was.
At night, Xu Ning lay on the kang in his room, looking at the sky full of stars outside the window, his whole body felt as comfortable as if he was in the clouds.
The Qin family's bed is naturally very comfortable, and the house is also very beautiful, but Xu Ning is always empty, the golden nest and the silver nest are not as good as his own straw nest.
She drilled into the space and planted the seeds given by grandma. She didn't know if it was ginseng, and she didn't know how to grow ginseng, and she wasn't sure if it would germinate, but she wouldn't be disappointed even if it couldn't be planted, the big deal I'll go to Grandpa Yao's house another day to see if I can ask the old man for some medicinal seeds.
Afterwards, Xu Ning played casually at home for two days before being caught by Xie Zheng.
"Morning Brother Zheng." Xu Ning came back from picking shallots in the private plot in the morning, and saw Xie Zheng washing his face in the yard.
Because the two houses are facing each other, if you open the door, you can see everything you do in the yard.
Xie Zheng picked up the towel and wiped his face, "When did you come back?"
"Three days ago." Xu Ning replied.
"Then I've had enough fun in the past three days. Come over to make up lessons after breakfast."
"..." Xu Ning wanted to cry, can't he play for another two days?
"What are you doing standing there?" Xie Zheng was amused in his heart, but he didn't show it, "I don't want to make up lessons after I got 19th in the exam? Do you think I can skip a grade and go to university?"
"No." She shook her head hastily, "I'll come over after dinner."
After speaking, like a rabbit, he rushed into the house.
Gao Xiulan heard her grandson's words in the kitchen, and really wanted to pick up the spoon in her hand and hit him on the head.
This brat talks to Xu Ning with such an attitude, what if the little girl is so frightened that he doesn't dare to come to the door again?
"You brat, you can't speak softly." After all, the old man couldn't hold back, and gave his grandson a hard look.
Xie Zheng lowered his head, with a smile overflowing from the corner of his lips, isn't this very interesting, seeing the little girl's startled and trembling appearance, he felt that a certain place in his heart was itchy and uncomfortable, and he wanted to scratch it but couldn't do it If you start, you can only let it continue to itch there.
Just thinking of what Xu Ning suffered in the Qin family, a violent emotion seemed to want to break free from the cage in his heart and rush out.
Xie Zheng sighed lightly, what did he want the newspaper office to do!
Back home, Xu Ning plunged into the kitchen. There were still a lot of dumplings left from last night. She decided to fry them in the oil pan. The crispy outer skin and the delicious filling inside are absolutely delicious. live.
After the dumplings were made last night, the whole family said they were delicious. Xu Jianjun, who eats the most in the family, ate about fifty or sixty dumplings in a daze, and stayed up late at night before going to bed.
After breakfast, Xu Jianjun and Qin Xuejuan went to work together, while the old lady was preparing to feed the pigs.
Hearing Xu Ning say that the water in the house is that kind of space water, the old lady was quite conflicted. On the one hand, she felt that it was a waste to feed the pigs, and on the other hand, because Xu Ning said that the pork must be very delicious.
No matter what, just shake off your shoulders and use them. Anyway, the two pigs and their family can't finish it, so they still have to sell some.
Xu Ning tidied up his schoolbag, carried it and walked out.
"Grandma, I went to Brother Zheng's house to study."
The old lady glanced at her and said: "Study hard, I'll make it for lunch."
"It depends, I can do it." Xu Ning went out after finishing speaking.
When they came to the next door, they had already finished their breakfast. Grandpa Jiang was not at home, and Grandma Gao was sitting at the door of the main room holding the soles of her shoes.
"Ning Ning is here!" Gao Xiulan was in a particularly beautiful mood when she saw this little girl, "Xiao Zheng is in the room, you go over."
"good."
Xie Zheng never read books at home except for the necessary homework. Most of the time he listened to the radio news with the old radio in his hands, and then he made up lessons for Xu Ning.
"I thought you were crazy." Seeing Xu Ning come in, Xie Zheng sat up from the bed.
Xu Ning was really embarrassed, she wasn't proud, it was just that she finally had a summer vacation, so she naturally wanted to play for a few more days.
Seeing Xie Zheng urging her to study like this, she felt a little guilty for being lazy.
"I went to the magic capital, and I was a little tired from the car, so I was lazy at home for two days." She was a little shy, "But Brother Zheng, I will work hard next time."
"You still have a sense of shame, at least you can still be saved." Xie Zheng sat down on the chair, "I will give you physics tuition today, and your physics score is the lowest in this exam."
"OK."
Sitting down on the chair beside him, a good smell of saponin came into his nostrils.
Xie Zheng was wearing a white shirt, the two cuffs were folded up, exposing a small half of his white arms, and the neckline was loose with two buttons open, and his collarbone with a bewitching shape was so delicate that it was outrageous. This kind of Xie Zheng made people feel a little bit want to commit a crime.
He is actually quite thin, but he doesn't give people a feeling of being weak. Although he grew up in the countryside and needs to go to the fields frequently, his skin is still fair, which is the same as Xu Ning's skin.
"Da da da!" The sound of tapping on the table brought Xu Ning back to his senses.
Xie Zheng concealed the urge to laugh, and his voice was clear: "Why are you staring at me, I don't have words on me."
"It's nothing, I'm distracted." Xu Ning blushed, which was completely embarrassing.
Thinking about how old I am, seeing a child distracted, my old face suddenly hurts.
Xu Ning forced himself to calm down and listen to Xie Zheng's explanation attentively.
Everything is not important now, only knowledge is the most indispensable. No matter whether the things you learn in the future can be used or not, it is better to put them in your own mind than in books.
In the next few days, she never thought about relaxing, and came to Xie Zheng's house to report on time every day.
Yesterday was the day when Xu Jianjun paid his salary, but today is another day off, and it was also a market. In the morning, Xu Jianjun and his wife went to the market together and bought a lot of things, of course, seeds are the first.
Xu Ning has a treasure in his arms. These days, the Xu family’s food is really good. Except for some necessary daily necessities and meat, the vegetables are all grown from the space. As she said, they are planted at night and eaten in the morning. It's already mature.
Before, Xu Jianjun asked Xu Ning whether others could enter the space, but he tested it and found that it couldn't be done. Although the family members were very curious about what it looked like inside, after Xu Ning's description, they also knew a general idea. The left side is nothing more than a spring, an acre of land, nothing more.
"The braised pork is out of the pot." Xu Ning lifted the lid of the pot, smelling the rich aroma, couldn't help but be overjoyed.
Qin Xuejuan got up and looked at the braised pork in the pot, she just parted her lips, but suddenly rushed out with her mouth covered, and vomited while leaning against the wall next to the hut.
Seeing this, Xu Ning hurriedly yelled loudly into the room, and Xu Jianjun ran out after hearing it.
"What's the matter?" Seeing his wife's appearance, Xu Jianjun went to the kitchen to fill a bowl of water and came over, "Did you eat something bad?"
Qin Xuejuan waved her hands uncomfortably, and continued to vomit for a while before taking the bowl of water to rinse her mouth.
It wasn't that she had a bad stomach. If she guessed right, it might be a symptom of nausea, after all, she remembered that her period didn't seem to come.
I thought it was due to other reasons that the menstruation was delayed, but now it doesn't seem to be the case.
Xu Jianjun is not stupid, since it wasn't because he vomited after eating something bad, it could only be...
"Juan'er, do you have it?" He rolled his beautiful eyes and asked cautiously.
Qin Xuejuan glared at her husband coquettishly, "I'm not sure yet, I'll ask Old Yao to take my pulse."
No matter what happens next, at least the current Xu Jianjun is floating.
These years, the husband and wife have only one daughter, Xu Ning. Although they are content, one of them seems lonely after all. I also like it. The brothers and sisters are full of excitement. Their Xu family is now a single seedling like Xu Ning, and the population is really thin.
But helplessly, his wife's stomach has never moved, and because he is afraid of his wife's misunderstanding, he has never dared to discuss such things. Now it's better, and he is finally pregnant.
Not to mention Xu Jianjun, Xu Ning also feels his legs are weak now.
After regaining her senses, she rushed into the old lady's room, "Grandma, my mother seems to be pregnant."
"..." The old lady went down with one stitch, and the embroidery needle went straight into the pulp of her index finger, but she didn't seem to notice the pain at all. Then she slowly pulled out the needle, threw the insole into the sewing basket, stood up and stepped on the three-inch needle. Jinlian trotted outside.
Standing at the door of the main room, seeing her son carefully helping her daughter-in-law in, the old lady's eyes became bright, "Juan'er, are you really embarrassed?"
Qin Xuejuan couldn't laugh or cry, "Mom, my period is almost ten days late, and I don't know if it was a sudden cold or I ate something else. Anyway, I don't know yet. After dinner, I will go to Lao Yaoshu's house and ask him to look at it." Look, don't get excited."
However, the old lady returned to normal in a blink of an eye, "Why am I excited, anyway, I have a granddaughter."
The eyeballs of Xu Ning who came with him were about to fall out, grandma is really good, there is almost no trace of the transition before and after, Oscar seems to owe you a statuette.
"But you should go and have a look. If something is wrong, grab some medicine. Your body is important." Come on, I still think about it in my heart.
Qin Xuejuan nodded with a smile. In fact, she should know it well. After all, the symptoms just now are completely different from the illness, and it is not the first time she is pregnant. But because she has not been diagnosed, she does not want to disappoint her family.
After dinner, Xu Jianjun took his wife out.
Old Yaoshu is a doctor of traditional Chinese medicine in Xiangshan Village. No one knows the exact name of his real name, but people always call him Old Yaoshu, and the children call him Grandpa Yao. No illness can trouble him, and he is a very famous person in Xiangshan Village.
Xu Ning heard from his grandma that Grandpa Yao escaped with his grandfather when he was very young.
At that time, no one was rich, but the people in the country were simple and honest. Seeing such grandparents and grandchildren, they would not be helpless. Afterwards, the people in the village gave me food bit by bit, and even helped them A thatched hut in the village was refurbished, and the two lived in the village.
Grandpa Yao’s grandfather was also a doctor, because he was grateful for the kindness of the people in Xiangshan Village. Since then, he has always tried his best to help the villagers with medical consultations. After the old man died of a serious illness, Grandpa Yao inherited the family business until now .
When the war broke out, the old man resolutely carried the medicine box to enlist in the army. A few years later, he returned to the village with a broken leg and never went out again. He was married once and gave birth to a son , but later his son did not know why, and had a big fight with Grandpa Yao, ran away from home and never came back, and Grandma Yao, who had searched for her son to no avail, also committed suicide by jumping into the river in the middle of a dark night.
Generally speaking, this is a very sad old man.
After lunch, the old lady sat in the main room, embroidering insoles and watching TV. She used to take a nap at this point, but today she looked very energetic.
Xu Ning, who came in after washing, even heard grandma humming a nice little tune.
"The south wind brings coolness, the nightingale sings bleakly, the flowers under the moon fall into dreams, only the evening primrose exudes fragrance..."
Xu Ning is very familiar with this song. He has heard it on TV. It is Teresa Teng's "Evening Fragrance", which is very nice.
This was the first time she heard her grandma sing, and she didn't expect her to like Teresa Teng's song.
Maybe because she heard the movement behind her, the old lady suddenly turned her head, and she seemed a little disappointed when she saw it was Xu Ning.
"Grandma, you sing really well." Xu Ning praised with a thumbs up.
The old lady couldn't bear that old face, she laughed and scolded: "What nonsense, my song is neither tune nor key."
"Did you think my parents were back?" Xu Ning sat down on the bench, "I think my mother is really pregnant this time. Does grandma want a grandson or a granddaughter?"
Regarding this question, the old lady did not fool Xu Ning.
"Anything is fine, grandchildren are fine." The smile on the corners of the old lady's lips deepened, "Our family is not a big family, we have to count on our grandson to carry on the family line, and our granddaughter will still be able to glorify our ancestors."
"That's right, what you said is so right." Xu Ning nodded repeatedly, "Look at that Qin Liangyu, women don't give way to women."
"Little girl, I still know about Qin Liangyu." The old lady smiled from ear to ear.
"The teacher taught it."
The grandfather and grandson were waiting for Xu Jianjun and his wife while chatting, but it was lively and harmonious.
The old lady looked at the granddaughter in front of her, thinking that there was still one child missing, and an elderly person like her still hoped that the family would be more lively.
There is only one of her five children left now, so she is counting on Xu Jianjun and his wife.
Xu Jianjun came back with Qin Xuejuan almost an hour later.
When the grandfather and grandson saw Xu Jianjun's expression, they already knew the answer in their hearts. They must be pregnant. Otherwise, what happened to Xu Jianjun's smile that was warmer than the sun?
"Is it really pregnant?" The old lady still hoped to hear it with her own ears.
Xu Jianjun nodded vigorously, the corners of his mouth extended to his ears in joy, "It really is, Old Yao uncle said it himself."
"Oh, this is really great." The old lady was so happy that she was at a loss, and went back to her room with her feet bouncing.
Needless to say what to do, I must be holding the only blurry two-inch black and white photo of the old man and thinking about it.
Xu Ning looked at his mother's flat stomach curiously, and couldn't contain his excitement.
In her previous life, she was also pregnant with a child, but it was a pity that she passed away in less than two months. She has not had time to understand what it feels like to be a mother.
As for whether it is sad or not, Xu Ning doesn't remember, after all, too much time has passed, and that mood has been consumed by the trivialities and tribulations of life.
This summer vacation can be said to be the happiest day for the Xu family, with good things coming one after another.
Neighbor Gao's grandma learned that Qin Xuejuan was pregnant, so she just got together with the old lady and muttered all afternoon, but Xu Ning didn't listen to what she said.
Xie Zheng was also very happy to see the corners of Xu Ning's lips always curled up.
Third Aunt is a good woman, she deserves a lifetime of happiness, and now that her fate has been changed, will it be different for me and Xu Ning?
Xie Zheng didn't know many women in his previous life. Of course, at the very beginning, he gradually developed in the imperial capital, and there were different women around him. Unfortunately, he never paid attention to them, so that he couldn't remember their looks. It is said that most of the time is spent in the army, and even fewer women are seen.
Until he was about the same age, some close friends of his parents worried about his marriage. Finally, he accepted a blind date and married Chen Qianwen.
He needs a wife who can talk to him for the rest of his life, while Chen Qianwen needs a husband who doesn't interfere in her life to silence the Chen family. It can be said that the two hit it off.
It's just that after marriage, he spends most of his time in the army, and Chen Qianwen spends most of his time at the company. The two of them don't meet many times throughout the year. Unless it's the kind of banquet where each of them needs to bring their other half to attend, they will make an appointment to go. Transitions.
At the beginning, the two often went home, but unfortunately after meeting, there was only silence and arguments, and as time passed, it seemed that there was no difference between seeing or not seeing each other.
Maybe you can change your life in this life, marry a girl you like, go home on time every day, eat and chat with her, and have two lovely children. Even if you can’t see each other because of busy work, you can still think about it , not even the figure of the other party only occasionally comes to mind because of something.
At night, Xu Jianjun carefully avoided his wife, for fear that a slight movement would hurt her.
"Juan'er, why don't you go to the office to answer the phone and raise your baby at home with peace of mind." Xu Jianjun said in a negotiating tone, he cared more about his wife's opinion.
Qin Xuejuan pondered for a moment, then nodded and said, "That's fine, even if I don't go to work, I will be a little nervous relying on your salary."
Anyway, she also has forty or fifty quick money every month, even if it is less than half of her husband's, then the life of the family will be more relaxed.
"It's nothing, it's enough money." Xu Jianjun didn't care, "After the baby is born and weaned, let our mother coax it. You may start your own business."
"I agree with your idea. The quality of the vegetables grown in Ningning's space is too high, so let's take the high-end route." Qin Xuejuan leaned on the pillow, "I want to let Ningning grow it now, and grow it out It can’t be broken in the space. Now the country’s economic development will get better and better, and the people will definitely be more refined in their diet. If the output can keep up, our business should be able to grow.”
"I just don't know what Ningning wants to do in the future."
"Our daughter has her own opinion and supports everything she does."
As the start of school was approaching day by day, Xu Ning also learned the writing and pronunciation of 26 subtitles in English with Xie Zheng. To learn.
Qin Xuejuan just vomited for a few days at the very beginning, and she seemed to be fine the next day, eating well and sleeping soundly.
The only minor disturbance was that Qin Xuejuan went to the village party secretary and quit her job answering the phone in the office. As for who else to take over, the big girls and young wives in the village were fighting openly and secretly.
This job is easy, and there are tens of dollars a month to pay, and it does not delay the work at home. It is absolutely the best job, and who doesn't want it.
When Qin Xuejuan was here before, it wasn't that no one was envious and jealous, but the Xu family also had Xu Jianjun who worked in the town, and Qin Xuejuan spoke Mandarin very well, so they couldn't help it.
It's all right now, the 20 and 30 people in the village are all competing for this job, and the village party secretary is the first and the second. Those who are pestered by the big girls and young wives in the village every day are disheartened.
Who should be used and who should not be used? You don’t have to think about it carefully. After all, they all belong to the same village.
In the evening, the class belonged to the eldest daughter of the village chief's family. There was no dispute about it. Fortunately, after some comparisons, the final candidate was finalized. It was Xu Xiaofeng, the granddaughter of the oldest elder in the village.
Xu Xiaofeng married an outsider in the village a few years ago. The man has a lot of strength and is very good at bricklayer work. At the beginning of the year, he organized more than 30 young people from four miles and eight villages to go to work in the city. When Yue came back, he directly brought back a black and white TV set, which made many people envious.
With a little family background, it will be different in the village, so Xu Xiaofeng took over this job, even if someone was not convinced, but he didn't dare to say it clearly, there are many women and girls here, all of them Go to someone's house and watch TV.
When Qin Xuejuan learned of the ending, she smiled and said nothing, she is not a person who likes to talk about others behind her back.
But she has no objection to the successor candidate, Xu Xiaofeng is a smooth-talking girl who can speak well, so it's no problem to take over the job.
Regarding Qin Xuejuan's pregnancy again, the people in the village also discussed it in private.
It was nothing more than Qin Xuejuan.
"I stopped working when I was just pregnant. I'm so squeamish." A daughter-in-law with a big belly said sourly. She is seven months old now, and she is not ambiguous at all when it is time to go to the field. Although she wants to be lazy, her mother-in-law does not agree. .
"What do you know?" A middle-aged woman knitting a sweater on the opposite side smiled and said, "Jianjun's daughter-in-law is in her thirties this year. The older a woman is, the more dangerous it is for a woman to have children, and Aunt Xu's knee is like Ningning. Granddaughter, now that the daughter-in-law is pregnant, she must watch carefully, and besides, Jianjun earns a lot of money every month, which is enough for their family to spend."
"I think Jianjun's daughter-in-law will definitely not leave. That's good. Aunt Xu's family is also a hard-working person."
"Who says it's not? Of the five children, only Jianjun is left. It's a pity."
"Hey, have you heard that there is a family in Qianzhao Village. The son-in-law ran away overnight two days ago, and his wife is still pregnant for four or five months. What a crime. If you say you want to run away, you should hurry up and wait until now." It's not hurting people."
"Really? That man is really not a good thing."
"Maybe I'll come back when I go back and have a look, and maybe I can take my wife away to live in the city." The pregnant daughter-in-law thought pretty well.
As a result, as soon as he finished speaking, he was refuted by several women.
"Why do you go back? If you can really come back, why are you running around like a fool?"
"No, it's really good. He told the father-in-law to take his wife back to the city. How can parents disagree? Maybe they will send it away with drums and gongs."
"You are the beauty you think about all day long."
"Then the daughter-in-law shouldn't cry to death? But it's her own fault, maybe it's because of her identity."
"I think it's the same. The dragon matches the dragon and the phoenix, and the tortoise matches the bastard. It's not the right family. Even if they go to the city with them, their parents-in-law will look down on them."
Originally discussing Qin Xuejuan, the topic became more and more erratic, and finally I just talked about someone's child climbing a tree to dig out a bird's nest, and his ass was beaten up by his father.
Xiangshan Village at noon was sweltering like a big steamer, and Cicada neighed desperately on the tree, adding a deeper layer of anxiety to this summer.
Qin Xuejuan, who was pregnant at this time, her body temperature was obviously higher than before, and she couldn't bear the turbulent heat wave even more. She sat in the main room all day, flashing the big cattail fan, and she was still sweating profusely like this, which made her miserable. unspeakable.
When Xu Ning saw this, it was not an option to continue like this, and he still had to do something.
"Mom, does our supply and marketing cooperative sell rock candy?"
"Yes, do you want rock candy? Didn't your cousin buy some fruit candy and toffee?" Qin Xuejuan wiped off her sweat, thinking of boiling some water and taking a bath, it was so hot that it made people crazy.
"I don't want to eat candy. Don't we buy pears at home? I'll make you a pear with rock sugar. Let it cool down and drink it to make it refreshing."
When Qin Xuejuan heard this, her heart was filled with happiness.
"With your words, Mom feels refreshed all over."
"It doesn't work at all, okay, it should be hot or hot." Xu Ning ran to the old lady's room and asked her for a dollar, "I'll go and see it now."
The supply and marketing cooperative has people here every day throughout the year. The entrance is a fairly spacious place. There are tables, chairs and benches under a tree with chess boards engraved on it. Old people in the village often play chess here.
When Xu Ning came over, there were many people sitting under the two big trees in front of the supply and marketing cooperative, and a group of children were laughing and dancing rubber bands.
A group of men gathered under the tree, standing or sitting around to watch people play chess, and a group of women gathered together to embroider and knit sweaters.
As soon as she appeared, many people raised their voices to greet Xu Ning.
"Ning Ning is here to buy something?"
"Yes, ma'am, my mother is pregnant and hot, so I bought some rock candy and went back to make some soup for her."
"No, the body temperature of the pregnant body is high, especially in summer. It's too much to suffer. Occasionally drink a bowl of sour plum soup to cool down the heat, but you can't drink it too often."
"Okay, thank you, ma'am."
On the other side, Jiang Jiahao's eyes lit up when he was watching people playing chess.
A figure from the back that he saw here more than a month ago would pop up in his mind from time to time when he went back, not for any other reason, but because the figure of the back and the black hair fluttering in the wind were so beautiful.
He didn't notice Xu Ning just now, but when he turned around, it was because the girl's voice was very pleasant, like a cool wind in the hot summer, refreshing the whole body, but he turned around and found that familiar figure, The most important thing was the combed long hair, which gave him the urge to touch it.
Today he finally saw this girl's face, even though it was just a side view, it already made his heart skip a beat.
With a straight nose, slightly squinted eyes and raised lips when talking to others, as well as that white jade-like skin, she is a living beauty.
I have imagined many times in my mind, but it is still not as good as the surprise that I saw with my own eyes.
Xu Ning chatted with several elders in the village, then walked in, and her complexion immediately darkened as soon as she entered the door.
Jiang Jiahao's gaze was so hot that Xu Ning couldn't have noticed it. In fact, she almost ran home just now, but because there were too many people here, she forced herself to endure it.
She didn't know when the other party came to Xiangshan Village, and she didn't understand why this man didn't return to the city. In her previous life, she was only thinking about living a good life, but in this life, she realized that she still knew too little about this man.
"Brother Shuanzi, weigh me some rock candy." Xu Ning said to the boy sitting in the store eating melon seeds.
Shuanzi is the son of the village party secretary, five years older than Xu Ning. He didn't go to school before finishing junior high school. He just stayed in the supply and marketing cooperative all day, or just played around, and didn't look for a job.
Shuanzi heard the voice, looked up and saw that it was Xu Ning, stood up clapping his hands and walked over.
"Little girl, are you hungry for candy?"
"I'm going back to make some soup for my mother to cool off the heat." Xu Ning took an oiled paper bag from the counter, "Just give me two pieces that are about the same size, and I'll buy them after I'm done."
"Okay." Shuanzi took two pieces of rock candy for Xu Ning and weighed them on a small scale, "Forty cents."
"Thanks."
Xu Ning handed the money to Shuanzi, who wrapped the rock sugar, took the change Shuanzi found and prepared to go out.
While turning around, Xu Ning realized that there was a figure in front of him. Xu Ning quickly took two steps back, but was almost tripped by a sack placed behind him. While stumbling, the man reached out to help him.
"Don't touch me." Xu Ning's voice was sharp, and he waved his arms to slap the man's hand away.
Although she didn't see this person's face just now, she knew who this person was.
A surge of hatred and fear radiated from her bones, which made her want to escape reflexively.
Jiang Jiahao was taken aback by the voice, even Shuanzi, who was holding the melon seeds and was about to nibble, trembled all over his body.
"What's the matter?" Shuanzi was in the same village as Xu Ning anyway, and had a pretty good impression of this girl who wasn't his own sister, "Brother Jiahao, what are you doing?"
Jiang Jiahao pursed his lips, the hand that was slapped away by Xu Ning just now was hanging in the distance, but he was a little angry in his heart.
After all, he is an educated youth, a serious urbanite, and in the past two months since he came to Xiangshan Village, many girls and daughter-in-laws in the village have been winking at him. He considers himself to be nobler than these rural people, and he stretched out his hand to support her, but was patted away by the other party. How could he be happy? He even felt that this little girl simply didn't know what to do. He didn't know how to help him, but in the end he was rejected here.
"It's okay, I just saw that she couldn't stand steadily, so I wanted to help her." Jiang Jiahao quickly changed his mood, showing a smile that he thought was handsome, but a look of disdain flashed in his eyes, "Little sister, are you okay?"
Xu Ning endured the trembling in his heart, stood up straight without making a sound, and walked away without even saying hello.
Shuanzi looked at Xu Ning's back in some puzzlement, and said while eating melon seeds, "What's the matter with that girl, this is, she suddenly made me jump with her voice."
"Jiadong, who is that?" Jiang Jiahao asked calmly.
Shuanzi grabbed a handful of melon seeds and handed them to him, "Xu Ning from the third uncle's family in the village."
"Xu Ning!" Jiang Jiahao let the name pass between his lips and teeth. Although he was a little disdainful of the other party's background, it was rare to meet such a young girl in such a remote place, and his heart still felt a little itchy.
Bypassing the supply and marketing cooperative, Xu Ning ran back home.
Why did he appear there again? Could it be that he is often in the supply and marketing cooperative?
Since they are so free, why don't they go back to the city, and what do they want to do in their village?
At the door of the house, she tried her best to adjust her emotions before entering the door as if nothing had happened.
After saying hello to Qin Xuejuan, Xu Ning put the rock sugar in the kitchen, fetched a basin of water, squatted at the door of the house and scrubbed vigorously.
The hand touched Jiang Jiahao just now, which made her feel sick.
After washing it over and over again, until the rubbed hands are wrinkled and red, they still feel unclean.
"Bada—" I don't know if it was sweat or tears, and it fell into the washbasin.
She raised her hand to cover her face, and found that it wasn't tears, so she sighed softly, this is the best, she doesn't want to cry for that kind of man anymore.
Xu Ning thought that he might not go to the supply and marketing cooperative in the future. It has always been the favorite place for people in the village to gather, and he still didn't think carefully enough.
Less than two days before the start of the new semester, Zhang Meng suddenly came to Xu Ning's house.
This time she came with her younger brother, and each of them carried a wicker basket in their hands, which contained clams and oysters, two starfish and a lot of kelp rolled together.
"You guys are..." Xu Ning looked at the tired and panting appearance of the siblings, and hurried forward to help them take down the basket, "Why did you send so much?"
Brother Zhang Meng followed Xu Ning into the house, took the tea mug from her hand, and drank a big cup alone.
"Oh, I'm thirsty, but the water in your house is delicious." Zhang Meng rubbed his arms and said, "We stayed at grandma's house for more than 20 days, and went to the beach every day. We almost didn't eat enough of these things. The next time I came back, I brought back two big snakeskin bags, so I brought some more for you, but the weather is still a bit hot, and it won’t last for many days, so hurry up and eat.”
Xu Ning looked at so many things outside. Seaweed can be used to make seaweed soup, which is good for mother to drink. If you can't finish eating clams, you can get the meat out first, and the same goes for oysters.
"You're really serious, this journey is quite tiring." Xu Ning looked at her with a smirk, "Our family has a small population, so it's enough to give a little to try something new, but you're better off, just take two baskets."
"We did it ourselves, and it didn't cost any money." Zhang Meng didn't care at all.
Xu Ning didn't refuse. They sent it over and asked them to take it back. Isn't this just playing tricks on others?
"Have lunch at my house at noon, and I'll make something delicious for you."
Zhang Meng waved his hand and refused, "There are still guests in our house. Uncle sent us back, and I have to go back to help my mother cook, but you are the only one in your house?"
"My mother is pregnant. She went to the county hospital for an examination today. Grandma is next door." Xu Ning got up and went to his room, and took out two boxes of snacks and a box of candy from the Kangtou cabinet, because Qin Zhao bought them for her. Yes, the price is naturally not cheap, but it is worth a lot of money just because the packaging box is so exquisite.
"My cousin from my mother's house bought this for me. You can take it home and eat it with your brother."
Zhang Meng looked at the three boxes that Xu Ning stuffed in. The snack boxes were blue and Xiang-colored, while the fruit candy box was made of iron, with a little white rabbit painted on it, which was very heavy.
"I don't want it." Zhang Meng simply returned it to Xu Ning, "I didn't spend any money on what I gave you, yours must be very expensive."
"What is expensive or not? The friendship between us still cares about this. Besides, I still have some at home. I can't eat so much by myself. Take it back."
The two pushed back and forth, but in the end Xu Ning prevailed.
Zhang Meng was a little embarrassed, she had never seen such a beautiful box before, and she knew that the snacks and candies inside should be delicious, but she didn't know if her parents would call her cheeky when she took it home.
"I'm sorry." She blushed a little.
Xu Ning was amused by her cute little appearance, "You're welcome, I didn't even tell you to take your things back."
"Thank you then."
The siblings didn't stay here for long, and they got up and left. There were guests at home, and it was not good for the two of them to play outside for too long.
After seeing off Zhang Meng and his brother, Xu Ning washed these things as needed, and prepared to sit down before cooking.
These things don't need to be troublesome, just put them in the pot and add some water, and she also plans to use clam soup to make noodles, but she doesn't know if her mother will have an appetite.
At noon, the old lady came back from the next door and was surprised to see two large bowls of seafood in the kitchen.
"You bought it?"
Xu Ning didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "I just want to buy it and I don't have any money. The ones that Zhang Meng sent in the morning were made by myself at the seaside of her grandma's house."
"Why did you send so much?"
"That's right." Xu Ning nodded, "I gave her two boxes of snacks and one box of candy, which is a gift in return. Why don't grandma send some to Grandpa Jiang's house?"
"Okay!" The old lady came in, also filled a big bowl, turned her head and sent it to the next door.
Xu Ning has already made noodles here, and will cook them when his parents come back.
Today's lunch is stewed noodles with potatoes. The stewed noodles are made of clam soup. It tastes very delicious. The stewed potatoes are Xu Ning's favorite. Of course, the stewed kidney beans are also very good. As for the stewed noodles with tomatoes, it is not suitable She tastes it.
"Noodles for lunch?" The old lady came back, bent down to help Xu Ning light the fire, "Let's eat, your parents are having lunch in the county."
"Hey, can't my parents come back at noon? It's so close." After all, Xu Jianjun commutes to and from the county every morning and evening, which is enough to show that the distance is not far, and it only takes ten or twenty minutes to ride a bicycle.
"At noon, I said that I will have dinner at a friend's house in their department. It's just the two of us. Just make two curtains with noodles, and make the rest at night."
"knew."
As school was approaching, Xu Ning did not go to Xie Zheng's home to make up lessons. Taking advantage of the last time, she washed all the summer clothes, folded them and put them away in order. She took out the autumn clothes and prepared them. The weather in September It has become cool, and if you wear too thin in the morning and evening, it will be a bit cool.
Some of the leaves on the branches have shown signs of turning yellow, indicating that autumn is approaching.
At night, she flashed into the space.
At this moment, the space is already very lively, all kinds of vegetables are fully matured occupying the black soil, and the goblin seeds that grandma gave her before are also nested in a corner, growing wantonly.
She has never seen ginseng, so Xu Ning is not sure if it is, and she wants to dig through the soil to see, but if it is ginseng, what can she do if she destroys it all this time, so just in case, she decided to temporarily Don't move, just let them continue to grow, wait for a while, and then clean one to see the situation.
In the field, there are cabbage, lettuce, beans, cucumbers, tomatoes, etc., and she will pick off the fully ripe ones and place them neatly in a nearby open space, and then continue to sow seeds. Now there are a lot of vegetables piled up in the space.
Xu Jianjun also said that when he is free, he will help Xu Ning get some fruit seedlings to plant, which is pretty good.
These days, the fruits in the countryside are not abundant. They have apples, pears, dates, etc., and oranges, bananas, pineapples, etc. in the south. They are still quite rare here. It’s not that there are no, but the price It's quite expensive, after all, transportation is still not very convenient now, and how to store it is also a relatively expensive matter.
After picking off the ripe vegetables and placing them neatly, and re-sowing the seeds, she came out of the space, closed her eyes and fell asleep.
September 6th is the first day of school, Xu Ning and Xie Zheng came to the school together, and many students have already arrived.
It is customary not to attend classes on the first day of school. On this day, the head teacher organizes the students to clean the school, and then holds a welcome meeting for new students. In the afternoon, textbooks for the new semester will be distributed. The tuition fee will be told to the students when school is over in the afternoon. Just come here.
"Xu Ning!" Zhang Meng waved happily when he saw her, and then trotted over, "Thank you for sending me the snacks and toffee, which are delicious, but my mother told me that I took them. You are such a good thing, don't be ashamed."
"What's the matter." Xu Ning was amused by her words, "It's just something to eat, as long as you like it."
"Of course I like it. It's not cheap at first glance, okay?" The two walked into the classroom while talking.
As soon as they entered the door, many people's eyes fell on Xu Ning. They all found that Xu Ninghe had undergone a big change before the holiday. First of all, he was more beautiful, especially his fair skin, exuding pink. The beeping light, you don't need to get close to look at it to feel that it must be breakable.
You must know that they are in the countryside here, and almost none of the children are raised carefully, even if they are fine, they are not as good as the girls in the city.
The current living conditions are limited, no matter boys or girls, the skin is either yellow or a little rough, like her is almost white and tender like an egg that has been peeled off, it is very rare.
In addition, she is very beautiful in herself, so it is difficult not to be noticed.
Zhang Meng may be the one closest to Xu Ning, and he has met before and after the summer vacation, so he is not as sensitive as others.
"Hmph, little goblin!" Lu Xuejiao, who completely hated Xu Ning, saw the other party and also noticed the eyes of the boys in the classroom, and she almost went crazy with jealousy.
This little goblin is definitely not a compliment. In this era, when these three words are put on girls, they can be regarded as "vicious" curse words.
Lu Xuejiao thinks she is very good-looking, otherwise she would not have organized the so-called "Seven Fairies" group, but now she finds that most of the boys' eyes are on Xu Ning, even the boy she admired secretly. Xu Ning glanced at him several times, but it was not easy for her not to pounce on Xu Ning and tear him apart.
When Lu Xuejiao scolded these three words, she didn't hide it. Although her voice was low, Xu Ning could hear it clearly.
She glanced at the other party lightly, burst into a very shallow smile in an instant, and then sat down in her seat as if nothing had happened.
Zhang Meng didn't understand, Lu Xuejiao and Xu Ning had a good relationship before, but now the other side has undergone such a huge reversal, could it be that Xu Ning did something that Lu Xuejiao couldn't tolerate?
But it's not right to think about it. According to Xu Ning's current personality, and the two of them were together in school, they didn't find anything that provoked each other. Why?
"Did you provoke her?" Zhang Meng lowered her voice and asked in Xu Ning's ear.
"No."
"That's really strange." Zhang Meng didn't bother with this issue, anyway, she and Lu Xuejiao's group couldn't get along with each other.
Lu Xuejiao is actually quite difficult to serve. She has to listen to good things, and when you get along with her, you have to support her everywhere, otherwise she will continue to speak ill of you behind your back. It is better to have less contact with people with this personality, after all Zhang Meng is not the kind of person who is willing to be lowly. Now it is a new society, and everyone is equal. Who has the spare time to be a pug by your side.
Even in the ancient society with serious concepts of dignity and inferiority, you are not a landlord, rich gentry, official, so why are you so arrogant.
As soon as the class bell rang, Zhou Yan, the head teacher, walked in empty-handed.
"Hello, students, I hope that this more than one month of summer vacation has not let you play too hard. We still have the old rules today. We clean the classroom and campus in the morning. Girls clean the classroom, of course, cleaning the glass, and boys clean the campus. , don’t miss the dead branches and leaves, this year we will clean the front of the door and the north side of the playground.”
"Teacher, you are patriarchal, why are we boys so unlucky?" Some male students raised their hands and wailed.
"Do you still know that you are a boy?" Teacher Zhou couldn't help laughing, "You must know how to be humble, do you know how to be humble? You should be thankful that the teacher is lucky, and Class 5 has been selected to clean the latrine this time. Alright, let's all take action and strive to be in one and a half The cleaning will be completed within an hour, and there will be a welcome meeting for new students in the morning."
The ratio of male to female in each class is about the same, so getting together to get busy, chatting and laughing will not feel tired.
In a day like today, cleaning the glass is not as easy as sweeping the floor, so when Teacher Zhou said to disband, the female students in front got up and rushed to the back of the door, grabbing a broom each. Annoyed face.
Xu Ning and Zhang Meng went to the lecture table to get a piece of cloth each, went to the teacher's office to pick up half a basin of water, and came back, carrying the bench and began to wipe the glass.
The school is very old, and some of the glass is incomplete. This will be blocked with a piece of cardboard. It is fine in other seasons. In winter, two layers of plastic sheets must be nailed to the outside of the window, otherwise the cold wind will really freeze to death. .
There are seven windows on the left and right sides of a classroom. Xu Ning and Zhang Meng are standing directly outside. The top one cannot be reached, so they have to step on the window frame.
To put it bluntly, Lu Xuejiao is almost considered the head of the girls in their class. After all, the girls in this class are a group. There are about twenty girls, and they account for one third of them. With her greeting like this, it is estimated that more than half of the girls are standing with her, so it is not surprising that Xu Ning was isolated by them.
In fact, there is no need to be so troublesome at all, as long as Lu Xuejiao tells the other girls, both Yang Bo and Lu Kang are interested in Xu Ning. It is estimated that in the whole class, except for Zhang Meng, there is no other girl who is willing to talk to Xu Ning.
And don't look at the young girls nowadays, but everyone has a heart for comparison, Xu Ning is good-looking, same-sex repulsion, the result is already predictable.
Zhang Meng looked at four or five people from other windows, only two people on their side.
"Have we been avoided by them?"
Xu Ning was not affected at all, "I don't care."
"You are really generous." Zhang Meng sighed, "I think it's quite awkward."
"Actually, they don't want to pay attention to me, so you don't have to worry about it."
"I really don't understand what these people are thinking." It's okay, they are all in the same class, it's really boring.
Xu Ning pursed his lips and smiled without saying a word.
When everyone was young and ignorant, what she did back then was even more extraordinary than these little girls.
Besides, she thinks it's good not to interact with each other. After all, the psychological age is here. When I get together with these little girls, I don't have any common language. After taking a look, who talked to whom, etc., Xu Ning has long been accustomed to this kind of thing.
Thirty years from now, these will be nothing.
Zhang Meng didn't understand Xu Ning. Seeing that she really didn't care, she felt much calmer. If she didn't talk to her, just ignore her. It really wasn't a big deal.
The morning ended with cleaning and the freshmen welcome meeting. When I came to the school in the afternoon, the boys in the class were once again called by the teacher to the Academic Affairs Office to move this year's new books. Now those boys didn't complain, and they ran like rabbits. quick.
From the textbooks of the main subjects, to the textbooks of music, art, and other sub-subjects, they were moved back in waves, and the classroom suddenly boiled.
Although many students are unwilling to study, when the new book is handed out to them, the faint smell of ink will really make people feel happy from the bottom of their hearts. Even the boys who don't like reading the least will be quite bookish Turn it over, of course their freshness comes and goes faster.
Xu Ning and Zhang Meng would write their names on the title page every time they got a book, and they wrote it very seriously, which can be said to be a stroke.
"Xu Ning, the English class has really been added." Seeing the English textbook that was handed out later, Zhang Meng said in amazement, "How did your brother know?"
"I don't know either." Xu Ning shook his head.
She thought the original homework was a lot of work, but now that she has added English courses, it is conceivable that she will really have to work harder in the days to come.
However, she still has an advantage in English, after all, her parents can speak it well, although her father's words are not as smooth as her mother's.
Xu Jianjun occasionally needs to look up English dictionaries when reading English books, but Qin Xuejuan doesn't use them at all. Reading English books doesn't feel the slightest pressure.
"Hey, what kind of book is this?" When Zhang Meng looked over, he found one that he didn't have, and reached out to pick it up, "Notre Dame de Paris?"
"It was given to me by my cousin, who said it was a world famous book." Xu Ning said.
I watched it for a while before going to bed last night, and I probably put it in my schoolbag when I packed it up in the morning.
"You still like to read this kind of foreign book." Zhang Meng saw the author's name and said, "What's in it?"
"It's about a notorie who falls in love with a beautiful gypsy girl, and I haven't seen the end yet."
Zhang Meng returned the book to Xu Ning, "I may not be able to read it, let me know after you finish reading it, and lend it to me if you are interested."
"sure."
All the new books have been handed out, and the school is preparing to leave school early, mainly to let the students go back and inform their parents that tomorrow they need to bring the tuition for this semester, which is a total of sixty-eight yuan and twenty cents.
At Xu Ning's house, Xu Jianjun had already prepared for it, so she didn't need to worry about it.
In fact, the vast majority of parents have already prepared tuition fees for their children, even if the family conditions are not good. finish middle school.
If you can pass the high school exam, you can continue to study. If you don’t pass the exam, you have no choice but to leave school to farm or go out to work.
In the middle of the afternoon, Xu Ning returned home with a large bag of books. Qin Xuejuan was sitting with the old lady, and the two seemed to be preparing children's clothes.
"Come back so early?"
"Yeah!" Xu Ning went back to the house and put down the schoolbag, "After the new textbooks are distributed, I put them away, and I have to bring the tuition fees tomorrow."
"Your dad prepared it for you in advance, did you really add English classes?"
"Yeah, mom, you have to teach me more when the time comes."
"Of course there is no problem with this. I may be a little short in other courses, but I have no problem with English." Qin Xuejuan is still very confident in her English ability.
Her English teacher in high school was a foreigner, and after three years of studying with her, almost many of her classmates have practiced pure pronunciation.
"Is it useful to learn that foreign language?" The old lady couldn't understand it. She couldn't even learn Chinese well, and she still wanted to learn a foreign language.
"Sooner or later it will be useful." Qin Xuejuan smiled softly: "Many countries in the world speak English, which is also for us to be in line with the international standards, and now many foreign companies have begun to settle in our country. There will be opportunities to cooperate or work in foreign companies, but there will be much fewer opportunities if you don’t speak English.”
The old lady just listened, she couldn't understand at all, how could she deal with foreigners when she could solve the basic necessities of life in her own village.
But if my granddaughter wants to learn English at school, she should learn it.
"These cloths are soft. They are not enough for making diapers for children. We will go to the town twice when we have time to buy some soft cloths. Children's skin is delicate."
"Okay, I'll listen to you." In this regard, Qin Xuejuan is not as good as the old lady. When Xu Ning was born, the clothes she wore were all made by the old lady herself. Even though Xu Jianjun had already worked in the town government at that time, the distribution tickets were limited, and if he got any, he would exchange them for food tickets with others. After all, filling his stomach was the top priority.
