Chapter 21 The eldest granddaughter Li Yutong is reborn
Liu Lanxiang was relieved and felt at ease.
Chen Xiaoying quickly packed six sesame cakes on the side and asked Li Yutong to take them back on his bicycle: "You, Hanhan, and Jiejie, there are two of you three."
She doesn't care about Zhao Xueyan, the third daughter-in-law.
"I see."
Li Yutong said.
Nowadays, the children in the village come and go huffing and puffing on their own bicycles.
Li Yutong rode his bicycle and went home happily.
Usually when she sees so many delicious things at the market, she just looks at them. She has no money to buy them, and her parents are not used to her habit of spending money indiscriminately, so they almost never buy them for her. .
One time, she came with her mother and wanted to eat leek pie. Her mother said, "I only have this dollar and I plan to cut my hair. You can eat it, but I won't cut my hair."
She didn't want her mother to have no money for a haircut just because she ate the leek pie.
She stopped eating.
Her mother went to get her hair cut.
This time, her mother will set up a stall at the market, so she can eat more delicious food in the future.
Li Yutong was just happy. The bicycle had been used for a long time, and the front of the bicycle was too stiff. When turning, it was too slow, and it fell to the ground with a crash.
Li Yutong's legs were still on the bicycle, and his upper body was lying on the ground. He didn't move for a long time.
A village woman working in the fields nearby was startled and ran over to shout.
"You are Lan Xiang's eldest daughter, Xiao Yu, right? Did you fall? Wake up quickly, wake up?"
After pushing twice, Li Yutong opened her eyes in a daze and recognized a person from the village. She didn't know his name, but he lived next door to her grandmother.
But why is this man so much younger?
Before she could react, she stood up and was dumbfounded. She found that she was a lot shorter than others. There was a happy event in the village some time ago, and when they were eating, she was taller than her.
Li Yutong felt dizzy. When she woke up and saw the person in front of her clearly, she stared at him in horror: Why is this person so young?
"Xiaoyu, are you okay?" the woman asked.
Li Yutong said hurriedly: "It's okay, it's okay. I fell down and was frightened."
She knew that this person lived in a family next door to her grandma's house. He seemed to be some distant relative of her grandma's family. She didn't know whether to call him aunt or aunt, so she could only laugh.
Her mother and her father are both from this village. Some are related to her father's side, some are related to her mother's side, and some families are related to both families.
Therefore, some people call her aunt after her mother, and aunt after her father.
"Oh, that's okay. You've lost all your things." The woman also helped to pick up the sesame cakes.
Fortunately, the rope was tied up and the sesame cakes inside were not stained, but the paper package fell apart.
"Then I'm leaving." She took the biscuits.
"Ride slowly."
Amid the warm greetings, Li Yutong looked at the huge bicycle in front of him, stretched out his hand to look at it, and carefully based on his childhood memories, he successfully put his short legs in and rode on it.
After the wheel rolled forward for two or three times, she found the feeling.
Li Yutong rode his bicycle all the way back, observing the villages he was familiar with as he walked.
I found that I had really gone back to 20 years ago. The general appearance of the village had not changed, except that many of the two-story houses were now brick bungalows and earthen houses with gray and black tiles.
The new house her uncle built for his second son in the village is still a crop field.
Following the memory, I returned to my home and saw a lock on the broken wooden board. In fact, the lock was useless. I could climb in through the gap by lifting the stick on the door panel.
You cannot guard against thieves, you can only guard against gentlemen.
She looked at her yard, which was still planted with more than a dozen peach trees, and three small bungalows. Before she came back, she had already built a large bungalow for her family. According to the urban pattern, it was paved with ceramic tiles, large white walls, and a TV. Cabinets, ceilings, whatever you want.
The yard is also paved with cement flooring, and there is a row of colorful flowers against the wall, which is particularly beautiful.
The yard is still full of dirt. When it rains, green moss will grow, making it easy to fall. There will also be many small puddles and muddy places.
Li Yutong turned around and rode her bicycle to her grandfather's house.
When she was a child, she and Li Yuhan would go directly to her grandma's house for dinner after school and there was no one at home.
Her grandfather's landlord was still the same mud house in his memory.
In front of the square table under the eaves, Li Yuhan and Li Yujie were lying on the table. Li Yuhan was doing homework, but Li Yujie was playing with a rubber, and she looked like she didn't want to write.
Her nose suddenly became sore and she almost cried.
"Sister, what's wrong with you, where is our mother?" Li Yuhan asked her curiously.
"Still in the market." She said before putting the sesame cakes on the table: "My grandma asked me to come back to deliver food."
"Is it delicious?" A big hand suddenly stretched out, took one, and ate it.
Li Yutong looked over and saw a young and slightly chubby face, that of her third aunt Zhao Xueyan.
When Zhao Xueyan died, she was as thin as a firewood stick.
"Mom, I want to eat too." Li Yujie said hurriedly.
"Then you eat, just leave it on the table." Zhao Xueyan glanced at sister Li Yutong and motioned to Li Yujie to get it herself.
Li Yutong didn't say anything, but Li Yuhan took one and ate it.
"Sister, here you go." Seeing that Li Yutong didn't move, Li Yuhan was afraid that her third aunt and Li Yujie would finish the cake, so she quickly got one for her.
"Okay." Li Yutong said and took it.
When she cried just now, she thought of the fate of her three sisters. Although she and her sister Li Yuhan suffered a lot in the middle, their lives were just like ordinary people. Although they were noisy and the conditions were average, they still had to live their lives. .
What I usually worry about is my child's academic performance and which interest class to enroll in.
Li Yuhan is different. When she was 11 years old, her mother, Zhao Xueyan, died of illness. Her father went out to work and would not come back sometimes all year round. Her grandparents were old, so they only cared whether she was hungry or not, or whether she was studying well or not. , and didn’t want to care about it.
When someone bullied her, I didn't help her, but he also thought she was stupid and causing trouble all the time.
Later, I didn't even finish junior high school. I had pocket money and went around the county town with gangsters in Internet cafes. Later, I worked everywhere, most of them in the service industry, and they were waiters in small restaurants.
I would like to go to a big hotel. The salary is high, the division of labor is clear, and you won't feel tired.
But there are also requirements. She must have good appearance, at least graduate from junior high school, stand up with a straight back, and represent the image of the hotel. Li Yujie's living environment makes her never dare to look people in the eye, and she is timid and not flexible. , people take a quick look at her and don’t want her.
Later, I heard about an electronics factory where I joined. Within half a year of working, I fell in love with a young man in the factory and married him to the Northeast.
When the third uncle mentioned her, he scolded her that it would be better to raise a dog than to raise her.
Li Yutong listened and looked at the old and miserable third uncle with a resentful look on his face. She felt ridiculous: You ignored her since she was a child and let her grow up like a stray dog. When she grows up, you want her to be like a human being. Like to take care of you?
