Chapter 52 - 52 - Jiang Wen has arrived
"Xiao Yan, are you hungry? Mother, go and pack up your things. " Lee's asked.
"I'm not too hungry, but I can start cooking at this time of the year. Big Brother and Second Sister can just make it in time for dinner when they return." Mo Xiao Yan said.
"Then mom will go wash your hands, then go cook. You can play for a while." With that, he put down the work in his hands and went to wash his hands.
Mo Xiao Yan ran over to Lee's and said: "Mother, I'll help you. Since I have nothing better to do, it's just right for me to watch you learn how to cook."
"Alright." After that, he ran off to pick up dishes.
The two of them worked together and finished cooking. Mo Lin Yu and Mo Xiao Xia also came back, just in time to eat.
His life had improved a little recently. At least he had some fried vegetables and white rice to eat, so he didn't need to eat porridge every day. He felt much more energetic walking.
Big bro, Second Sister, you guys came back just in time. Mom just finished cooking so it's still warm. Mo Xiao Yan said while grinning.
"Haha, we came back after the meal." Mo Lin Yu joked.
"Big brother, I didn't expect you to be so humorous." Mo Xiao Yan secretly laughed while covering his mouth.
"What does humor mean?" Mo Lin Yu did not understand the meaning of this word.
"It's just a funny joke." It's just a funny joke. Mo Xiao Yan didn't know how to explain it.
During the meal, Mo Xiao Yan suddenly thought of his father that he had never met before.
"Mom, when will my dad be back?" Mo Xiao Yan acted as if he did not care and asked.
"Oh, it should be in a few months. I'm not too sure either. No one in our family can read, otherwise, your father would be able to get someone else to write a letter and send it back." Lee's said as he ate.
The communication conditions in ancient times were too inconvenient. It was not as convenient as modern mobile phones. Even if he were to write a letter here, he might not be able to read it.
"Oh, I know." Mo Xiao Yan replied.
After the meal, Mo Xiao Yan was initially going to wash the tableware, but he refused to do so. In the end, it was Mo Xiao Xia who went to wash the tableware.
The sky was not dark yet, so it was a bit early for him to sleep. Mo Xiao Yan sat in the courtyard to rest.
Dong, dong, dong …
Hearing someone knocking on the door, Mo Xiao Yan quickly got up and opened it.
Jiang Wen was standing outside, holding onto something.
"You're here. Come on in." He didn't know why, but Mo Xiao Yan didn't want to call Jiang Wen big brother, so he decided not to address him as such. From the looks of it, he didn't seem to mind at all.
"Xiao Yan, I came to see you." Jiang Wen walked in and said.
Lee's heard voices coming from outside and came out of the house.
Seeing that Jiang Wen had arrived, he smiled and greeted him. "Jiang Wen, you're here.
Jiang Wen walked over, placed the thing he was holding onto the table, and said: "Aunt, this is the osmanthus cake I bought in town, I'll bring it over for you guys to taste."
"Aiya, why did you come to buy something for us? This thing is quite expensive, isn't it?" Lee's glanced at Gui Hua Cake and said.
"It's fine, it's not expensive. I haven't come to see you in a while. I came back to stay at home for a few days before going to town, so I wanted to come visit you guys." Jiang Wen said with a smile.
"This child is really considerate. In the future, don't bring anything with you. This thing is quite expensive again." Lee's was still rather happy in his heart.
"Oh right, Aunt, why haven't I seen Xiao Xia?" Jiang Wen had not seen Mo Xiao Xia in such a long time, he just wanted to ask.
"Xiao Xia went to wash clothes by the river. She has been gone for a while, she should be back soon." The Lee's said with a smile.
Just as he was speaking, Mo Xiao Xia came back with a bucket of clothes.
After hanging up his clothes, he entered the room and saw Jiang Wen sitting inside.
Mo Xiao Xia was naturally very happy to see Jiang Wen, and asked: "Big Brother Jiang Wen, when are you coming?"
"I just arrived not too long ago. I heard from my aunt that you went to wash your clothes by the river?" Jiang Wen saw that Mo Xiao Xia's sleeves were wet, so he asked.
"Hmm, I haven't washed any clothes lately. Coincidentally, I came back early today, so I took those dirty clothes to the river to wash." Mo Xiao Xia said with a smile.
"Oh yeah, when did Big Brother Jiang Wen come back?" Mo Xiao Xia felt that she had endless things to say when she saw Jiang Wen.
"I just got back, so I'm going to stay at home for a while." Jiang Wen replied.
"Oh, so it's like that." Mo Xiao Xia actually wanted to say that she could come over if she had time to play, but it would be embarrassing to say it out loud.
"It's getting late, Aunt, Xiao Xia, I'll be going back first. I'll come visit you guys another day." Jiang Wen said his goodbyes and prepared to return home, as the sky was about to turn dark.
"En, alright, come over and play if you have nothing to do." Lee's said politely.
"Alright, then I'll be leaving first." With that, Jiang Wen left.
Mo Xiao Xia did not say anything either. It was not that she did not want to say anything, but it was that she wanted to say too much.
On the way back, Jiang Wen met Mo Chun Lan again. Actually, Jiang Wen had good impressions of Mo Chun Lan, as she was the girl who had grown up as a symbol of this village.
"Brother Wen, when did you come back?" Mo Chun Lan greeted Jiang Wen the moment she saw him.
It was just that this Brother Wen was calling him so intimately.
Jiang Wen stopped and said: "I just returned, and the sky is already getting dark for Chun Lan, what are you doing?"
"I just went to my good sister's house. I'm going home now." Mo Chun Lan said with her charming voice.
"Then hurry up and go back. It's not early anymore." Jiang Wen said.
"Mm, I understand. Brother Wen, I'll go back first." After she finished speaking, she even gave Jiang Wen a coquettish smile.
Jiang Wen felt as if his heart was going to melt.
Actually, Jiang Wen liked Mo Xiao Xia a little in his heart, but he also had a good impression of Mo Chun Lan. After all, Mo Chun Lan's appearance could still be considered a symbol, and she was so good at flirting, so normal men would probably like him.
When Mo Xiao Yan had just slept at night, his stomach suddenly hurt a little.
He felt like going to the latrine and hurriedly going to the latrine, only to get diarrhea.
It was so dark that it was hard to see in the latrine at night, and it was especially smelly. However, every now and then, he would get up and run to the latrine.
He didn't eat anything broken? How did he get diarrhea?
Suddenly, he remembered that eating meat buns and drinking cold water might have caused him to have diarrhea, and he didn't have any medicine. It truly was painful to the extreme.
In the morning, Mo Xiao Yan was unquestionably in bed, feeling weak all over and not wanting to get up.
Mo Xiao Xia and Mo Lin Yu still maintained their composure. They woke up early to eat breakfast before going out. Lee's didn't need to go out to work anymore, she was just like Mo Xiao Yan, idling around the house.
The entire family had eaten breakfast, only Mo Xiao Yan was not present.
Lee's went to Mo Xiao Yan's room to see what the girl was doing. She hadn't come out this morning.
Pushing the door open and entering, he saw that Mo Xiao Yan was still sleeping.
"Xiao Yan, wake up and eat, it's still warm, if you don't eat it will be cold." The Lee's shouted.
