Standing together through thick and thin

Chapter 72

It's only an hour's journey from Baili Village to Lujia Village.

Because of the snow, it was delayed for half an hour on the road.

Shao Qiu, Shao Duo, Lu Shi, Li Xiuye ​​and Lin Sihan all followed.

Lin Sihan didn't want to come with him at first, but Lu thought he was a half-old child who couldn't even cook. If he stayed at home by himself, he would definitely be hungry, so he brought him along.

When we arrived at Lujia Village, we entered the entrance of the village.

The road was covered with snow, but someone cleared a way out. Several people walked on the road, dressed like fat balls. Lu Shi hadn't returned to her mother's house for several years, and tears filled her eyes when she came back.

Few people still remember Lu Shi, and Lu Shi is wearing a hat again, making it even more unrecognizable, but there are still people who remember Lu Shi.

It was a man who was almost 30 years old. When he saw Lu Shi, he frowned first, and finally realized that he was pleasantly surprised: "Sister Lu? Is it Sister Lu?"

Mrs. Lu looked at the person, and it took a long time before he realized, "You are, Brother Zhang!"

"It's me, it's me, Sister Lu, are you back?"

Brother Zhang, whose full name is Lu Yinzhang, used to live next door to Lu's family, and there was a talented elder brother Lu Yinshu in the family!

In the past, Lu Yinshu and Lu Shi almost got married, but later, Lu Shi preferred Shao Ruide, who was down-to-earth and capable, not to mention that Shao Ruide was also handsome and strong. The scholar didn't have that idea, so he went to Shao Ruide with all his heart. How could he remember the talented elder brother Lu Yinshu from the next door?

When Lu Shi was young, he learned to read characters with Lu Yinshu!

However, there is a difference between men and women. Most women are considered to be virtuous if they have no talent. Because of their reputation, Lu did not learn to read from Lu Yinshu after learning for a few days. Later, he did not know many characters. Embroidery and sewing are as soft as water.

Although it was a long time ago, Lu Shi still laughed because of these rare and beautiful memories, "Long time no see, brother Zhang has also grown up."

Lu Yinzhang giggled a few times, "Sister Lu is here to give a New Year's gift! I'll take you back. My brother and my sister-in-law have gone to live in the county. My parents, my mother-in-law and a few children live at home. , Sister Lu, if you are free, come and sit down! At the beginning, we grew up together, I didn’t expect that it’s been so many years since we parted, and I miss my sister very much.”

"Elder sister misses you too." Mrs. Lu was a little shocked when she heard that Lu Yinshu had gone to the county, but she later heard that Lu Yinshu had passed the exam for Master Juren, and her family moved to the county. She didn't expect Lu Yinshu They stayed, and their parents also stayed here in the old house.

At that time, after Lu Yinshu took the Juren examination, he brought his lovely wife to see her. Lu Shi didn't know what happened to him, so he didn't pay much attention to it. He said hello and left weakly with his head bowed.

At that time, Lu Shi felt that he was staring at him strangely. Even if he took a step first, it was still as if the sharp edge was on his back. Lu Shi just didn't like it very much.

At that time, Lu Shi felt that Lu Yinshu had changed, but she was at home and Shao Ruide was still there. She didn't want to cause any gossip, otherwise Shao Qin's mouth would not know how to bring it up.

"That boy Erniu always talks about Sister Lu to me. If he knows that Sister Lu is back, he will definitely be very happy." Lu Yinzhang said with a smile. will be bad.

It's winter, and the skin is rosy, white and tender, and he must be living well. Lu Yinzhang ignored those baseless rumors.

Thinking of Lu Erniu, Lu's heart warmed, and he sighed, "I miss my brother too, so I'll come back and have a look, Brother Zhang, if you're busy, you don't have to see me off, your family also has a lot of things to do. "

"Sister Lu, don't say that, it's just a few steps away, no, you'll be there!" Lu Yinzhang took the lead to knock on the door, "Er Niu, Er Niu, open the door, your sister is here to give a gift, open the door quickly, don't be afraid!" Hide inside and be lazy!"

Shao Qiu looked at the small courtyard of Lu Erniu's house, which was worse than Shao's hometown.

The snow on the beams of the house has been swept away, but Shaoqiu can still see that it is very old, and it is enough to mend it so that it does not leak.

The space is small, and there are probably not many rooms. It seems that the Lu family was poor before, no wonder it is not wrong to live so hard in the Shao family.

But Lu Shi also knows how to embroider and sew clothes to make clothes, and the family should love Lu Shi.

The one who came out to open the door was a small figure, a little girl about ten years old, with a thin face and a little dark skin, because the cold did not take care of it, there were small scars, these small scars will recover in summer, but It was still shocking to look at, and even the lips were a little split.

"Auntie?" The voice was delicate and soft, soft, as if she had no strength, her eyes were red, as if she had cried, she was dressed in tatters, and her clothes were mended again and again, which shows that the family is also poor. . "Come in, father and mother are inside." She said.

"Sister Lu, I'm going back first. If you have anything to do, come to me directly!" Lu Yinzhang said with a smile when he saw someone came to open the door.

Mrs. Lu replied: "Hey, I see, you can go to work too! Come over to eat and drink some other day."

"Hey, definitely!"

After Lu Yinzhang left, Mrs. Lu looked at the little girl and didn't say much. She didn't know what happened. She didn't ask much just now. Besides, there were outsiders present. Now, she couldn't ask. , "This is Nunu. They are so tall. Take these snacks, sealed and still warm. Let's eat them. By the way, where is your father and your mother?"

"My father hurt his leg, and my mother was inside to accompany my father inside."

"What?" Lu Shi was taken aback. Why did he fall and hurt his leg during Chinese New Year?

Nunu held the snacks given by Lu Shi in her hand, and looked at the four men outside the door.

I was at a loss for a while.

"Nunu, right? I'm your cousin, Shaoqiu, this is my husband, you can call him Brother Li, and this is your cousin Shao Duo, this... a distant cousin who temporarily lives in my house Lin Sihan, where is your warehouse? We have sent a lot of gifts, so we need to find a place to put them. "

Hearing about the warehouse, Nunu didn't think much, and said, "Come with me!"

Shao Qiu and the others entered the room and closed the door. Seeing that Nu Nu was not paying attention, Shao Qiu asked Shao Duo to take out the big burden of presents, and followed Nu Nu on his shoulders.

Along the way, I saw a small yard at the door, two or three vegetable fields, which are now covered with snow, but they have been cleaned very clean, with only a few sporadic white snowflakes, which shows that they are hardworking, and the house has been tidied up.

Nunu entered the living room and looked back at Shaoqiu carrying two big burdens of presents. She was a little surprised, but quickly realized that the mother always nagged her aunt for not bringing her new year's gifts, and she was thinking that something like this would happen this year. Do you want to send a New Year’s gift? My aunt’s family came here and brought so many gifts. Nunu didn’t know how to express her feelings for a while. She used to complain to her aunt’s family. , the family didn't have much money, and my father always thought about sending money to my aunt, but now, seeing that my aunt was worried about my father, those thoughts disappeared.

What's more, sending so many gifts at this time is equivalent to sending charcoal in the snow, and Nu Nu is only moved in his heart.

"Put it here!"

"Okay." Shao Qiu put the two baskets of gifts in the living room and asked, "Nu Nu, what happened, tell my cousin, is someone bullying you? Tell my cousin, my cousin I will avenge you and see who dares to bully Nunu!"

Nunu has no brothers and sisters, so I don't know what it's like.

Now, after hearing Shao Qiu's words, I suddenly feel that brothers and sisters should be like this!This is what it feels like to be covered by an older brother!What a happy feeling.

She was touched, and cried even harder.

The little girl didn't think so much, seeing someone helping her became her life-saving straw, she cried and ran to Shao Qiu's side, almost hugging Shao Qiu, but she held back, her nose was red and twitching Yes, Shaoqiu couldn't bear it, and wiped her tears, "Okay, don't cry, it will be uglier if you cry, tell cousin, what happened?"

"Well, uh... Daddy, uh... I was repairing the house, and I fell down. Mother went to grandma's house, and when she came back, she cried. Grandma doesn't want her anymore... and I don't want it anymore." Although Nunu didn't know what happened during the period What happened, but when she heard that grandma didn't want them, she felt very sad. She has always been envious of grandma's children, who can wear nice clothes and eat delicious food. Every time she goes to grandma's house, she is happy Yes, even if they look down on her, she doesn't care, because those are the days when she feels the best and the happiest.

Now hearing that grandma doesn't want them anymore, my little heart was hit, and I cried with my mother.

Mother no longer had the fierce temper she used to have, and my father still doesn't know what to do with his legs!

Shaoqiu sighed, and picked up Nunu, "Take my cousin to see your father and your mother, okay?"

Nunu nodded. Apart from her father and mother, it was the first time she received such love from others, and her wounded heart felt a little more warm, sweet, and a little happy.

Nu Nu pointed to the direction, and Shao Qiu went out in the direction she pointed.

Turning back to Li Xiuye ​​and Lin Sihan, he said, "You two, help put away the presents, and come with me to see uncle and aunt."

Neither of them dared to disobey Shao Qiu's words. Li Xiuye ​​wanted to go with Shao Qiu, but Shao Qiu gave him a glare, and he obediently followed Lin Sihan to pack up the presents.

Shaoqiu didn't have much impression of his uncle's aunt, and the original owner didn't seem to have much impression of this family, but, according to Lu Shi, this uncle is pretty good, so he has to go and see!

The three of them went to the big room next door together, and Shao Qiu heard Lu's intermittent crying coming from the room, and there was an even louder crying, which was like howling.

When Nu Nu heard this, she was about to cry again.

Shaoqiu is helpless, women are really made of water, they cry every now and then, making people feel distressed and don't know what to do? "Okay, okay, don't cry, my cousin is good at medicine, can my cousin heal your father's leg?"

"Really?" Nunupu stared at Shao Qiu with wide eyes, Shao Qiu nodded and said, "Really!"
