Transmigrated into the original heroine of the period novel who was cannon fodder

Chapter 361 Living with Uncle

"I'm staying with my uncle."

Pei Xuan said this subconsciously and glanced at his brother Pei Jin.

Pei Xuan had just had his vacation, and I told him about what was going on at home, but he just realized that his biological father didn't live at home, and his biological mother seemed to be unaware of it.

Pei Jin took over Pei Xuan's words.

“Yes, I’ve lived there for a while.

Since you were not at home, we have been eating together with my uncle. We moved all the food over there. There happened to be an empty room there, and Minghui wanted to play with his younger brother and sister, so Dad took Minghui to live there directly. "

Aunt Pei opened her mouth.

Speechless for a moment.

This seems reasonable...

Who told them not to be at home?
At this time, Aunt Pei also remembered what she had deliberately chosen to forget that day.

A mountain breeze blew by, and she shivered suddenly. Looking at the dark rooms again, they looked like man-eating monsters. The occasional roars of beasts in the mountains made her even more nervous.

She subconsciously looked around, her face showing an expression of surprise and confusion.

Pei Jin and Pei Xuan had no idea what their mother was thinking. Seeing her rubbing her arms, they thought she was blown by the wind and felt cold.

Pei Xuan hooked his arm around Second Aunt Pei's shoulders and led her back.

"Mom, you..."

Aunt Pei was startled by the touch on her shoulder and let out a cry.

"You little bastard, are you trying to scare your mother to death?"

Aunt Pei came to her senses and slapped Pei Xuan twice on the back.

Second Aunt Pei was used to doing housework and was quite strong, but Pei Xuan had been trained since childhood and had thick skin and flesh, so that little bit of strength was nothing in his eyes.

He was grinning.

"Mom, why are you making such a fuss? By the way, is there any hot water in the pot? I need to wash myself. I went to the mine with my uncle this afternoon and I'm covered in dust."

Aunt Pei's expression froze instantly.

"You, you went to see your uncle?
Ah? Ah! Okay, hot water, a little, not enough..."

Second Aunt Pei’s mind was full of Pei Xuan going to the construction site. Was it possible that Pei Xuan saw her and her family?
She felt extremely embarrassed when she was carried to the construction site in the afternoon. She didn't want her sons to know about it, as it would have a huge impact on the image of their uncle's family in their hearts.

Pei Jin and Pei Xuan had no idea what kind of image their uncle's family had in their biological mother's mind. Now that they saw that their biological mother was uneasy, they knew what she was worried about.

The two brothers looked at each other.

Pei Xuan seemed unintentional and sighed.

"Mom, you don't know, something happened to my uncle this afternoon...

I heard that someone went there to cause trouble, but my uncle just threatened him with a few words and he ran away, leaving the person behind.

Tsk, that family is really a piece of shit. It’s unlucky for anyone to have relatives like that…”

Pei Xuan was making indirect accusations, and Pei Jin held back his laughter and casually agreed with him.

"There are so many people who are worse than beasts. Fortunately, there is no such scum in our Pei family. Otherwise, not to mention our father and uncle, even the ancestral rules of our Pei family would not let him have an easy life."

Aunt Pei's expression twisted for a moment, but seeing that her two sons seemed to have no idea who was causing the trouble, she couldn't say it clearly.

Finally, he couldn't stand it anymore and said, "Okay, it's other people's business, what's there to say?"

She didn't want to be bothered by it, so she just walked away. But when she returned to the house, she was very nervous seeing the empty and cold room where there seemed to be no trace of Uncle Pei. However, the howling wind outside quickly made her suppress this discomfort, leaving only fear in her heart.

Pei Jin and Pei Xuan really didn't know that their biological mother had remembered their grandmother again. They just wanted to scare her at the time and then forgot about it.

When they saw their biological mother leaving, they looked at each other and burst out laughing.

The next morning, when Pei Jin and Pei Xuan got up, Aunt Pei had already prepared the meal as usual.

only……

The two brothers were silent for a moment when they saw the watery soup with shredded radish and steamed bread with dried vegetables.
Second Aunt Pei was embarrassed for a moment and wanted to explain. But she saw that her two sons didn't say anything else and just started eating silently. She paused for a moment and breathed a sigh of relief. Seeing that breakfast was about to end, she couldn't help but ask, "Your dad, you're not coming back for breakfast, are you?"

Pei Jin hummed.

"No need to wait for him. They won't lack food at uncle's place."

How can this be the same!

Second Aunt Pei wanted to say something, but she felt that her words were too pale... After all, wasn't it because she was not at home that they had to find another place to eat?
But now she is back!
Around noon, Lingxi saw Aunt Pei wandering at the door in the yard.

She was not in good condition, very thin, and looked listless.

Lingxi looked at her, and was really afraid that she would faint in front of the door.

She stepped forward quickly.

"Second Aunt, this is..."

Aunt Pei leaned over to look into the yard and asked, "Is your uncle not here?"

what?
"Second uncle has gone into the mountains! Eldest brother, third brother and fourth brother have also gone with him." Because Gu Si was with them, and they had a pot and a stove in the cave, they had no plans to come back at noon.

Yes!

Went into the mountains.

I also went into the mountains a few days ago.

Aunt Pei nodded, feeling a little relieved.

Read the error-free version at 69shuba! 6=9+shu_ba is the first to publish this novel.

Suddenly she saw Minghui peeking out of the kitchen door, and she quickly called out, "Minghui, come back with grandma. It's already noon. Go back and eat. Grandma will roast meat for you."

Minghui quickly retracted his head.

As if he had thought of something, he stuck his head out again and said, "My dad and grandpa told me that I will eat with my aunt from now on. It's fine for me to live here. I don't need to go back."

The expression on Aunt Pei's face froze.

“No need to go back!”

“No need to go back!”

……

This sentence kept repeating in her mind, and she turned around and walked out with unsteady steps.

The room was much emptier last night, and the sense of incongruity that she had ignored made her recall it all over again, and her mind began to rumble.

Lingxi was silent for a moment, then calmed down and walked back to the kitchen, touching Minghui's head who was in a state of anxiety.

"Worried about grandma?"

Minghui shook his head: "Grandma is an adult now."

Adults can handle adult matters themselves, and it is not right for a little kid like him who does not understand much to worry about it.

Minghui was not completely unaware of the changes that had taken place at home during this period, but his second uncle Pei and Pei Jin had talked to him about it, and he knew that he was still young.

Lingxi smiled and nodded.

Yes!

grown ups.

But even though Aunt Pei is an adult, she is not as sensible as Minghui!

Lingxi didn't say much and changed the subject directly.

"Your uncle-in-law will definitely bring back some delicious food when he comes back this afternoon. He said last night that he would catch two fish. There is a pond in the mountains and the fish there are very fresh and delicious."

Minghui's eyes lit up instantly.

For lunch, Lingxi cooked some wontons and sprinkled some dried shrimps on them, and chopped coriander on them. It was fresh and fragrant. Lingxi, Minghui and the three little ones ate until they were full and ate with relish.

The haze brought by Aunt Pei dissipated completely in no time.

After returning home, Aunt Pei waited for a long time but no one came home at noon. She woke up from a daze with a grumble and heated up the leftover steamed buns from the morning, but ate them tasted bland.

and--

When it was almost dark, Uncle Pei Jin came back.

Aunt Pei had already prepared the meal, but Uncle Pei changed his clothes and went out with a basin of dirty clothes.

Aunt Pei quickly stopped them: "Put the clothes aside and I'll wash them later. Let's eat first."

Second Uncle Pei looked at her strangely: "I'm eating at Lingxi's place. Didn't I tell you that you don't need to care about us? Just take care of yourself and take a good rest to recuperate."

Uncle Pei didn't give Aunt Pei a chance to speak, and immediately said, "Okay, go eat! You don't have to wait for me in the evening. The youngest and I rarely have time in these years, and we have a lot to talk about. I'll stay over there temporarily."

Uncle Pei still had a gentle smile on his face and was very easy to talk to.

Aunt Pei nodded blankly...
