Later on, Mother Cao didn't have any other thoughts, so she let it go.

"Let me tell you, if that's what Mom really wants, you'd better take back all your objections." Cao Xiaolian told her sister in advance that this was also the reason. She was afraid that her negligence would hurt her mother.

With Mother Cao's character, if she really had feelings for Grandpa Li, it would be difficult for her to take this step. As a child, if she couldn't stay by the old man's side, she had to support the old man's decision.

With Cao Xiaoxia's personality, if she were to say those words, she would have been able to imagine how shameful her mother must have been. Perhaps, her thoughts would have already gone to extremes.

"Mom is old now, could it be that you still think we can spend the rest of our lives together with her?"

Cao Xiaoxia blushed at her sister's words, "I didn't say I don't agree. I was young and immature in the past, why are you acting like this? It's as if I don't owe you any favors."

"That's right." Cao Xiaolian looked at her younger sister and probably teased her, "Your reaction back then really scared me. It's not because you are young, I really want to beat you up for your selfishness."

Three years ago, she was only thirteen, how could she know? She just felt that if her mother remarried, she definitely wouldn't love him anymore. Now that he had grown up and stayed outside all these years, he finally understood how difficult it was for his mother to live as a woman.

"However, it's best if you ask clearly." Seeing that her sister was still looking at her with disbelief, Cao Xiaoxia swore, "As long as mom agrees, I agree. Fine."

"That's more like it."

"The noodles are here."

Mother Cao brought out the steaming hot noodles happily and placed it in front of them, "The one on the left is Xiao Lian's, you like to eat bean sprouts. The one on the right is Xiao Xia's, she has less bean sprouts and a fluffy egg."

Over the years, Mother Cao had never forgotten her daughter's habit.

Even though they were already far away from home, even though they would only be able to return half a year later.

Cao Xiaoxia was filled with mixed feelings. Her stomach, which had been rumbling with hunger, was now throbbing.

"Hurry up and eat." Mother Cao turned it over for her, exposing the egg in a flash, "And this is the egg your Aunt Tian brought last week."

"Ah!" "Speaking of which, I haven't seen Aunt Tian in a long time."

"Hmm, didn't your Uncle Tian have a stroke last year? He didn't send anyone to work, so your Aunt Tian made a chicken farm herself. It's doing pretty good now." "If there's nothing else, I'll go over and help. Every now and then, you'll come visit me. It's all about chicken and eggs."

Mother Cao sighed, "You speak of good people, but you don't have a good life." "Your Aunt Tian is such a nice person. Why did your Uncle Tian suddenly become paralyzed just like that?"

This was a woman, this was life.

Old Cao sighed for a long time. She then told Aunt Tian that she would rest the day after tomorrow, so they both went to visit Aunt Tian's house.

"Oh yeah, Mom, how is Gui Hua now?"

"Gui Hua's results are quite good. She's currently studying at the Junior High School."

Tian Guihua's grades were not particularly good. At that time, she did not get into high school, so she went to the normal school to learn from the young teachers. Now, she was helping out in the chicken farm, and sometimes she also went to Mother Cao.

"Yeah, it's not bad for girls to learn this major. When the time comes, I can ask Gui Hua to help."

Although the kindergarten had asked for Mother Cao's help, the truth was that last year, because the rent was too expensive, the staff salaries were to be removed and they were to merge with a child in the south of the city. The parents here all came to complain, saying that if they went to the south side of the city, it would be too far and inconvenient for them. However, if they kept it open, it would be too much of a burden for the school committee since there weren't many students here right now. After that, Mother Cao gritted her teeth and accepted the task.

For the Education Committee, it was too good to have someone to take over the board. They directly opened the certificate, and with the help of Huang Fang and the others, the documents were quickly completed.

The children liked Grandma Cao, and the parents also liked this kind and amiable old lady. Especially after knowing that she had done such a great deed for the children, they were even more touched.

Mother Cao's heart was moved, but even so, she was moved. Her body was no longer strong, so she recruited a few young girls from the Teacher Training School.

"Yeah, I'm just relying on my hobby. I'm already old, so I won't spare him anymore." Besides, when you get married and have children, I'll have to carry them for you. This kindergarten, I thought, the osmanthus flowers are willing to accept, let her do it. "In the past, your Aunt Tian helped us so much, but even now, we have always gotten along really well. Gui Hua, I'm just like my own child. If you two don't want it, I'll give it to her."

Cao Xiaoxia laughed, "Mom, if you want me to have so many children, you might as well kill me. It's best that Gui Hua is willing to take over. Otherwise, both of us will be in for it. "It's not big sis."

Mother Cao looked at her youngest daughter and said angrily, "You take it first. I won't give it to you either. I'm still worried about giving you Ma Da Ha."

He then looked at his eldest daughter, "Xiao Lian, what do you think?"

"Fine, it's your decision. I have no objections."

Mother Cao looked at her eldest daughter, who was getting more and more spirited. She was very happy, so she asked the question she wanted to ask, "Xiao Lian, when are you going to get married?"

Cao Xiaolian, who was eating the noodles, almost choked. She coughed and choked.

"Hurry up and drink some water." Mother Cao quickly poured some water and passed it to her daughter, complaining, "What's going on? Why do you have to choke on food when you're such a big person?"

Cao Xiaoxia, who had taken a sip of water, finally calmed down and rolled her eyes, "Please, Ma. Can you not talk about such a horrifying topic during dinner?"

"Marry, my sister?" She looked at Cao Xiaolian. "She is still a junior in university. Dusk is still on her list."

"Hey kid, I'm talking to your sister. Hurry up and eat. After you finish eating, go stay in the room."

"Xiao Lian, mom knows that you young people have your own ideas, but look, you're 20 this year, so you should be able to study for another year, then for another 21 this year. You're not old, but you've been together for so long, and we've never met before. We always feel a little uneasy."

Emotions are waiting here.

She always said that she would be fine, that she had just reached 20 years of age and was now advocating late marriage and late childbearing. Why did she suddenly start talking about marriage?

However, she should tell Mother Cao about this.

"Mom, we are currently in a relationship, but in this era, if we are in a relationship, we don't necessarily have to get married."

As soon as he said that, Mother Cao became anxious, "What, what do you mean? Isn't it about playing a hooligan when we're dating? Who is the one who said that? It's his, right?" "I see that he's quite a good young man, how can he be like that? Bring him here, I want to speak properly, this is bullying us widows and widows."

Cao Xiaolian felt a headache when she saw her mother's outburst. She knew that the fire would burn as she spat out the truth.

However, she couldn't let Li Yugeng carry such a sh * t for her.

"Mom, it wasn't his idea." Cao Xiaolian opened her mouth with difficulty, "It is mine."

"Yours?" Mother Cao was stunned. At first, she could not believe it. Then, looking at her daughter's expression and eyes, she knew that this was most likely true.

"Say, did you learn to be dumb?" Mother Cao was disappointed. "How can you say that you're in a relationship and won't get married? Xiao Lian, mother knows you have a lot of ideas, but no matter what, you are still a girl. You are at a disadvantage."

"Mom, I know in my heart that the reason why I'm dating him right now is because we like each other. However, I don't know if this relationship can be maintained for as long as it takes. Moreover, marriage was not that simple. It was not just a union of two people, but also two families, two backgrounds and a lot of habits that needed to be tempered. I don't want to get married without knowing it.

Cao Xiaoxia slapped the table and stood up, "Sister, well said!"

"Shut up." Old Cao snappily retorted, "Why can't you shut your mouth after eating so much?"

Cao Xiao Xia could only continue to eat. At a place where her mother couldn't see, she raised her big thumb towards her sister.

Unexpectedly, he even obtained a little fan.

However, that was not important. What was important now was her attitude.

"Xiao Lian, you really disappointed mother."

"You have always been an obedient child since you were a child. I have never worried about you all these years. People keep praising you whenever they talk about you, but how can you think of something as big as this?"

Mother Cao muttered to herself. She was saying that it was impossible for men and women to be equal. As long as their woman had one more son than the man, then the relationship could not be completely equal.

When she said this, she did not try to hide it from Cao Xiaoxia, as she realized that her youngest daughter had also shown such signs of life.

Heavens, this was truly frightening. If it was in their era, what would they still do? It was all introductions. If they were the target, it would be a hooliganism crime.

Cao Xiaolian listened to him patiently. She was not going to fight with her mother anyway. There was no need to be so hostile on her first day back. There would be plenty of opportunities in the future.

After the noodles were eaten, Grandpa Li also came back to buy vegetables.

"Today, in the market, we got a lot of new silver carp. Each of them is as tall as a person. I heard that you and your sister loved to eat Fish Head Tofu Soup and had bought fish heads and tofu. "

"I like it." Cao Xiaoxia quickly raised her hand, "Thank you, Uncle Li."

She smiled sweetly, causing Uncle Li's heart to melt. He never thought that he would be childless for half his life and become an old man. Yet, he actually had two beautiful daughters who were sensible and considerate.

However...

Grandpa Li glanced at Mother Cao. Seeing that she was not even looking at him, he knew that there was no hope for them.

Sigh!

The two children went to take a bath one after the other. When Grandpa Li went to help out in the kitchen, he secretly asked, "I say, when are we going to tell the child about our matters?"

When those words came out, Mother Cao was so frightened that she quickly turned around as if she was a thief.

"Stop talking." Old Cao closed the door and said, "The children are all at home. What should we do when we hear it?"

"I heard it when I heard it." Master Li felt a bit wronged, "Little Cao, we already said that we would definitely tell the children about our return this time. "Tell me, we still have a few more years to live, why are we being so unreasonable? I saw that the children are all sensible, so let's tell them and see what they say. Don't you feel more at ease now?"

Mother Cao shook her head, "I thought about it, how about we just forget about Old Li. I've remembered what you've done for me. If we meet again in the next life, I'll repay you for what you've done for me. But in this life, just treat it as fate."
