Chapter 499: Having clothes to wear

"Isn't that right? It says in the letter of introduction that he is the same age as our Motoko," Shan's father nodded and said with certainty, and handed a neatly folded piece of letter paper to his father from his pocket. , that is, the village chief of Shiyan Village.

The village chief took it, put on his reading glasses and looked at it carefully, and nodded, "It is indeed eight years old. Children in the city are well-fed, but why are they smaller than some children from poor families in our village?"

Father Shan whispered: "Jingqiu's father is a small leader in the Kyoto organization. Her mother does not have a job, and she has a younger sister at home. She is from N City, her grandparents are in the country, and her grandparents are retired in a small town. staff.

It is reasonable to say that the family conditions are good, but," he paused and said, "she grew up in N city and was only taken to school in the past two years..."

He recounted what Wen Jingqiu told him.

"Every child is the flesh that fell from the mother's body. How can you push your daughter far away for your own mistakes?" Grandma Shan shook her head.

 Shan Mu also frowned and strongly disagreed: "I'm really looking forward to my daughter. This child Jingqiu is good-looking and knows etiquette. If she were born in our family, wouldn't she become a sweet potato?"

"Who says it's not?" Father Shan sighed and said: "Such a thin and beautiful girl in the city has never drunk milk powder. Her sister is two years younger than her, but they are about the same height and both are in the first grade. ”

"I took a look just now. Her coat fits her well, but the cotton coat underneath is torn, old and small, and her little hands are covered in frostbite. The stepmother is no better than that," Shan Mu said angrily, "I'll go find some cotton and fine cotton later." Make her a cotton cloth. It’s such a cold day, and she’s a girl. If she gets frostbite, it’ll be a lifetime thing!”

"I have a lot of cotton and fabrics there. I'll bring them out later. You make the cotton clothes, and I'll make her a pair of cotton shoes." Grandma Shanma also added, "The leather shoes on her feet look good but they don't look good."

Shan Sugu smiled and said, "What about me? Shall I go look for some rare and delicious food? It's almost the Chinese New Year, and the store has much more variety than usual. It seems that there are some chocolates and wafers that children like to eat. Where's the cake?

By the way, I just learned to knit sweaters from someone, and the little girl looked particularly energetic and beautiful in the red dress!

I always wanted to dress up as a girl, but ended up giving birth to two boys, and both my mother-in-law’s family and my husband’s family were also brats!

Finally, a beautiful little girl came to the house, you can’t stop me! "

Everyone was chatting and laughing, looking forward to the next two months, and were not worried about Shan Weiyuan at all. That was a demon king, and it was just a good comparison for the Wen family. When Jingqiu returned, they would know how to love him.

After sitting in the car for so long, the room is warm and clean, and the quilt is soft and smells of sunshine. Wen Jingqiu unknowingly let down her guard and fell asleep. This was the first time since she was sensible that she slept so comfortably.

When she opened her eyes, she heard the low voices of the Shan family, mixed with the voices of two little boys eagerly asking for their sister. The smell of food was under her breath, which was extremely warm.

She felt in a trance for a while, as if she had always lived here.

The better she felt in front of her, the more miserable and ridiculous her previous life became.

Wen Jingqiu sat with a dull look on her face, and after a long time she slowly exhaled, and a smile gradually bloomed on her lips. If the Shan family was sincere to her, then she would indulge for once and treat herself as a person who grew up in love and expectation. The children make up for the lack of their own desires.

After getting dressed, she got out of bed, opened the door and walked out.

“Are you awake? The food is just about ready. Just wash your hands and eat,” said the mountain lady with a smile as she scooped warm water from the stove and handed it over.

A swarthy boy with a tiger-like head and a swarthy face jumped out with white teeth grinning, holding a big red Double Happiness soap box in his hand, with a brand-new piece of soap exuding a rich aroma placed on it!

Another boy who looked exactly the same held a red towel and handed it over.

“Sister, give it!”

Wen Jingqiu took it with a crooked eyebrow and thanked her, rolled up her sleeves and washed her hands and face.

Although Wen’s mother is not well-educated, has low vision, and is good at pretending, her appearance is very outstanding. Father Wen is also handsome, stylish and talented.

Wen Jingqiu found out that the two of them had good qualities, fair skin, delicate facial features, curly hair, and long and curved eyelashes. When she was well-behaved, she looked like the porcelain dolls placed on the counter, which made the Shan family want to take care of her. .

The dinner is very rich, including roasted old hen with potatoes, diced spicy chicken, scrambled eggs with chives, braised pork, roasted bacon with dried tomatoes, and Fuqiang pink steamed buns specially steamed for Wen Jingqiu!

Wen Jingqiu couldn't help but swallow after looking at it. The food in the bowl in front of her had been picked up by the Shan family. She smiled and thanked politely, taking a bite of steamed buns and a bite of vegetables, and drinking some rice soup from time to time. Although she ate gracefully, she was no slower than the two boys.

After eating two large steamed buns, a large bowl of vegetables and a bowl of soup, Wen Jingqiu stopped using her chopsticks, with an embarrassed blush on her face.

When she saw that everyone had finished eating, she got up to help clean up.

Grandma Shan grabbed her and said, "You don't have to do anything, just follow Nai. Nai will help you measure the size."

Wen Jingqiu was gently pushed forward by Shan Mu: "Go ahead, there is no work at home in the winter, so I only expect to cook and wash dishes every day, so don't compete with me.

This is in your home, don’t be constrained.

Children don’t need to be too sensible. They are cute when they are willful occasionally. "

Wen Jingqiu was stunned for a moment and couldn't help but ask: "But don't adults like children who are sensible and help with things?"

Shanmu smiled and rubbed her hair and said, "Indeed, we like children like this, but being a child really helps us. We feel very distressed.

Children should be like children, especially little girls. You can play freely when you are young. But when you get married and have children later, you may have endless things to worry about and endless work to do. "

Wen Jingqiu pursed her lips and said in a very low voice, "I am so happy to be your child."

Mother Shan laughed and hugged her into her arms, patted her thin back and said, "I also feel lucky to have such a lovely daughter like you. I am really disobedient and not as considerate as a little cotton-padded jacket. They will marry each other in the future. When you give birth to a child, you only have a small family in your eyes. How can you remember me as an old mother? "

Grandma Shan measured Wen Jingqiu’s size and foot length.

"Mistress, I have clothes to wear." Wen Jingqiu couldn't help but said, "I'll be here, just stay at home for two months."

Cotton and cotton cloth are big flowers in her concept. It takes several years for grandparents in the countryside to buy a pair of cotton clothes.

The family is reluctant to make her a new cotton-padded jacket, so why should someone she just met have this obligation?

She has no shame in enduring it if others do it.
