Chapter 81：

Sujia Village is surrounded by mountains on three sides, and it is still quite cold in winter. Even the seven aunts and eight aunts who like to gather at the entrance of the village for chatting obediently hide in the house and avoid going out.

There was no more work in the field of the brigade, and every household began to focus on their private plots. Li Yufeng was diligent and opened a large private plot on the side of the mountain to grow a lot of grains. He would come back with a load of cassava, and he met a postman comrade shouting on the road. He stopped her and asked her if she was Li Yufeng, who had her letter.

Li Yufeng didn't even have to think about it, she knew it was a letter from her daughter. After thanking the postman, she went home with a lot of lightness.

Before going home, she checked that there was no one around, she turned to the back of the yard, took a few cassava from the shawl and put it in a dilapidated yard, and whispered to the inside: "After cooking, soak it in water for two days before eating it. , or you'll get dizzy."

After he finished speaking, he didn't care whether he heard it or not, he went straight around and went back to his yard from the other side.

Xiaobao has been studying more and more diligently since she came back from her aunt's house. Aunt said that studying hard will definitely be useful in the future, although she occasionally hears people say, "What about your aunt being the first in the exam every year, it's not like being a stepmother for others", Xiaobao He was very angry to hear such remarks before, but he is not angry anymore, his uncle is tall, handsome, nice and generous, and he knows a lot more, his rice ball brother Xiaozhuzi is very smart, and he also likes pretty Cute Xiaodoubao, he likes everyone in his uncle's family, and he doesn't mind aunt being their mother at all.

When Li Yufeng came back, Xiaobao had already fed the little hens with the small earthworms he dug up from school, and was lying on the small table in the yard doing his homework very seriously, not even knowing that someone had entered the yard.

Su Weimin went to the commune for a meeting. Su Zhenhua followed Zhang Chunying back to her parents’ home to visit relatives. Xiaobao was alone at home. Li Yufeng didn’t bother her grandson.

When she saw that her daughter was happy, Li Yufeng was so excited that she kept saying "Thank you for the blessing of the sky, thank you for the blessing of the Bodhisattva". The Hancheng family's children are all good children, but Su Xiaoxiao never gave birth to a Li Yufeng herself. Don't worry, it's alright, anyway, there are many boys in Hancheng's family, Su Xiaoxiao has no pressure to give birth to boys and girls, and Li Yufeng's heart has finally fallen.

Li Yufeng's excitement alarmed Xiaobao. He put his head into the room and saw grandma looking at the letter with red eyes. Smart Xiaobao thought of something and rushed over to tiptoe and grab Li Yufeng's hand: "Grandma, is it my aunt? letter!"

Although it is a question sentence, it is used in a determined tone.

Li Yufeng patted her grandson's hand angrily: "Yes, you let go first, the rice ball pillars and beanbags have written to you, and I will bring them to you."

Xiaobao let go of grandma's hand and waited eagerly.

Onigiri and Xiaodoubao wrote a letter to Xiaobao alone. Li Yufeng gave it to him. Xiaobao jumped up and down with the letter: "Grandma, is this mine? Is it my own?"

Li Yufeng nodded and said, "Yes, I wrote it to you alone."

"Then I have to hide it myself!" Six-year-old Xiaobao got the most precious first letter in his life.

The rice ball is written on the top. Let's talk about the mother's pregnancy first. Xiaobao is stunned and looks at Li Yufeng in disbelief: "Grandma, when my aunt is pregnant, does it mean to give us a sister?"

Li Yufeng shook his head: "You don't know if it's a younger sister or a younger brother until you are born. It seems that our family has no daughter's life, maybe it's still a stinky boy."

Li Yufeng's words are true, the Hancheng family will not say it first, the old Su family is also amazing. Counting three generations up, there is a girl like Su Xiaoxiao, Su Xiaoxiao's elders, peers, and juniors, except for her. She is a girl, so not only Su Weimin and Li Yufeng baby girl, but also other elders in the family. When her grandparents were still alive, they also loved Su Xiaoxiao the most, otherwise they would not have sent her to high school in the city. She went to college and left the countryside, and no one in her family objected.

Of course, Su Xiaoxiao is also good-natured. She has a good-natured, sweet and laughable temperament. She is also the first in the exam every year. The city high school only recruited three people from their county. She herself was admitted with the first place. It hasn't been canceled yet, and I don't know how many people are envious. To say that Su Xiaoxiao is half a foot into the university, Li Yufeng has really protected her as an eyeball since she was a child.

It can be said that Su Xiaoxiao didn't bother her except for the time she couldn't think about it for being an educated youth, but her daughter was unlucky, and when she was about to take the college entrance examination, she suddenly announced the cancellation.

Although, Li Yufeng was not so satisfied when her daughter wanted to marry Hancheng at first, and felt wronged by her daughter, but after a visit, Li Yufeng is now dissatisfied with no one except Hancheng, and she is pregnant with a child so soon, Li Yufeng is delighted Think, her daughter is still quite lucky.

Xiaobao read the letter carefully, and the rice ball pillar told him a lot of interesting things about school and family in the simplest language. Two adults and three children are drawn crookedly. The rice **** wrote the names of the whole family on the side, and added the sentence "I miss you." And the most important thing is to fold the letter.

After reading his letter, Xiaobao stood on tiptoe to read the letter in Li Yufeng's hand: "Grandma, I miss my aunt and rice **** very much. My uncle promised me to come back during the New Year. Did you say that in your letter?"

Li Yufeng showed the letter to Xiaobao and nodded his head: "Your aunt said she wanted to come back, but your uncle said it would depend on her physical condition, don't worry, even if your aunt can't come back, your uncle will bring the rice **** and they will come back to pick them up. You and Dabao celebrate the New Year."

"Really?" Xiao Baole was broken and opened his eyes wide to find what his uncle wrote, but the letter was too long, Xiao Bao couldn't find it after reading it for a long time, but grandma said yes.

How did Su Xiaoxiao even Li Yufeng's vegetables sprout, how many times did you eat bean sprouts, the porridge, noodles and rice are really four big roosters, and there are eight chicks hatched at home, Han Cheng said that they raised them to confinement When to eat, etc., such trivial things are written in the letter in great detail, can it be long?

However, Su Xiaoxiao didn't mention a word during the laborious process of pregnancy, and her mother was worried. Su Xiaoxiao always reported good news instead of bad news.

Li Yufeng was very relieved about Han Cheng, and she didn't worry about her daughter very much. Even though there were no elders in Han Cheng's family, she had to calculate the time to spend with her confinement when Su Xiaoxiao gave birth.

Xiaobao put away his letter and said to Li Yufeng, "Grandma, I won't help you make a fire today. I have to practice calligraphy, and by the way, I will reply to the onigiri and the others." Write him one, and he will have to answer many.

Li Yufeng was a little puzzled, and asked him, "Is there so much homework today?"

Xiaobao waved his hand back, and sat down on his small stool without turning his head: "Auntie and uncle's calligraphy is so beautiful, and the calligraphy of rice **** and Xiaozhuzi is better than mine. If I don't practice calligraphy well, I will Xiaodoubao's calligraphy is better than mine, what should I do? Next time Brother Dabao comes back, I have to ask him to practice calligraphy. Rice **** don't like to be friends with people with ugly calligraphy. of."

Li Yufeng smiled and shook his head. It's always a good thing for a grandson to get ahead. It's a pity that he can't get into college no matter how good his studies are these years. A few days ago, their brigade even transferred a few intellectuals from the frontier farm. I heard that their parents used to be university professors. , his son is also a college student, and the family of Kochi, unable to withstand the severe cold in the frontier, fell ill and was transferred to their brigade.

Su Weimin saw that their family was pitiful, and they were all very polite and polite scholars, so he gave them a vacant yard behind his own yard that was left by a former family. The condition of the shed is still good, and some of the shabby things that are idle at home are also moved to them for their use.

These days, the big guys are still wary of the people in the city who don't know what they have done and were sent down by Pdou. Usually when they see it, they can hide if they can, and don't touch if they can, so as not to eat mutton. It is a great act of kindness for Su Weimin, a captain, to be able to do this.

Li Yufeng is even more, like picking vegetables and digging sweet potatoes as much as possible, as much as possible, and quietly put them in their yard when they come back.

The family knew how to avoid suspicion. Except for holding their hands and sincerely thanking them on the first day they moved in, they never interacted with their family, whether it was openly or secretly.

It is because of this that Li Yufeng is willing to give them some good things like peanut lotus root.

Xiaobao likes the family of three very much, especially the grandparents. They say they know more than the teacher. Sometimes when they encounter a question they don't understand, they secretly carry a roasted sweet potato and run to the back to ask them, and even the aunt gives him The White Rabbit Toffee is willing to give them points.

Li Yufeng has bumped into it several times, so I can only tell him not to go so secretly, don't enter their house in front of outsiders, and don't say it outside, we can't let others know that we have dealings with them, otherwise it will provoke them and the family. big trouble.

Xiaobao seems to understand, although he doesn't know what's going on, but he also knows that they are different from other people in the village. Xiaobao still thinks that everyone in the village is not as knowledgeable as them, but he doesn't know why the villagers don't seem to like them very much. .

Every time Xiaobao sneaks away and sneaks back.

"Grandma, bake me some sweet potatoes." Xiaobao naturally wanted to show the most learned grandparents in the village a letter from his good brother.

"Understood." Li Yufeng knew that he was going to sneak behind again, but she didn't stop it. There are many poor people these days. Now that they have met, it is a good idea to help them. She specially picked a few larger sweet potatoes and put them in Roast in the fire.
