Chapter 83: The Spring Breeze (1)

    "Mother, let's come back to see you, you don't have to cook so many dishes every time." Xu Wanxiu looked at the dishes on the dinner table, including pork and cucumbers, feeling helpless.

    Ten years have passed in a flash, and Mother Xu looks much older than before. Her back is no longer as straight as before, and her waist is slightly hunched when she sits.

    The wrinkles on her face became more and more obvious, she said with a smile, "Xiuxiu, you are wrong, it's your sister-in-law who has to cook so many dishes? Mother can't stop it."

    She said this , The eyes are full of smiles, and the spirit is full of energy. Compared with the past ten years, it is not bad.

    During these difficult ten years, Xu Wanxiu would return to Xujiatun to see Xu's mother every once in a while, sometimes alone, sometimes with Ning Ning and Zhao Guoqiang.

    She knew Mother Xu's temperament. Even after living together in the military family building for so many years, she would probably be reluctant to buy meat when she got home.

    Not to mention that his sister-in-law Li Xiaoping is now in charge.

    Thinking again that it's hard to buy meat, vegetables, and everything, and they all come in secretly? Xu Wanxiu simply brings something with him every time he comes back, to improve Xu's mother's life in old age.

    In the past ten years, she has often walked between the county seat and Xujiatun, and she has also witnessed the silence of this era with her own eyes. Xu Wanxiu saw that the elderly and children in Xujiatun gradually turned pale and thin, and the adult labor force could not eat enough. This problem is not only in the village, but also in the county.

    Every time I cook pork at home, Xu Wanxiu has to carefully close the doors and windows of the house to prevent the smell of meat from wafting out. Although Zhao Guoqiang's position in the iron and steel factory can fully withstand such a way of eating, the conditions of the people in the building where they live are not bad.

    But it's always good to be careful.

    Thinking like this, I heard Mother Xu excitedly holding her daughter's hand and talking about the latest gossip in the village, "Xiu Xiu, do you know, the educated youth's daughter-in-law of the big Zhuang family at the head of the village is making a fuss about getting a divorce, saying that she wants to go back to the educated youth. What kind of college entrance examination to review for. This is a lot of trouble, and other families are not much different. The married people are arguing for divorce, and the unmarried people stay at the educated youth to review. "

    Old and young, Xu’s mother rarely talked about this with Xu’s mother before, but in recent years, she has not worked very much in her old age. When she is free, she pays attention to the gossip in the village. The two grandsons go to school in the county town and can only come back at night. , the daughter-in-law works in the field during the day.

    She can only gossip with the old women in the village, but those old women are not as powerful as they used to be, and they are all hungry.

    "Now that they want to resume the college entrance examination, they naturally want to go back. Being able to pass the university entrance exam and return to the city is the easiest way." Xu Wanxiu said with a smile, now that the countryside is in chaos, she has no idea. Say something more.

    Either way, it's someone else's personal choice.

    She smiled and said something nice, "Mother, it is also said that Xiaohong and Xiaolang are lucky. They just caught up at this age. Soon the first college entrance examination will come, and they will be able to participate."
