Age: My Small World

Chapter 164 Hat
Cheng family.

In the back room, Cheng Xiaoyu sat on the kang, staring blankly ahead, but the corners of his mouth occasionally raised slightly, as if he was thinking of something happy.

"Ai Min, go call your sister out."

Outside, Fan Ping's voice was heard.

"Mom, my sister is very fierce today. I don't want to call her." Cheng Aimin refused.

"Idiot." The little girl seemed not to hear the voice outside and was still lost in thought. Naturally, she was not talking about Cheng Aimin.

Then her face suddenly turned red.

Her little hands couldn't help but tighten her collar: "He saw everything, I can't not take responsibility in the future."

"But if that's the case, will Brother Xiaoshan think I'm casual?" Thinking of this, Cheng Xiaoyu couldn't help but become anxious again, thinking about explaining immediately.

But as soon as his feet moved, they stopped again.

"He said he has something to do today, so we should go later."

"I've been calling you for a long time, but there's no response?"

At this time, Fan Ping lifted the curtain and came in.

The layout of their house is actually similar to that of the Yang family, except that there is an extra separate room on the side, which is specially given to Cheng Aimin. It was left behind when Cheng's father was still alive. The brothers in the family helped to build it, so it is not much different.

The mother and daughter slept in the front and back rooms. The back room was reserved for Cheng Xiaoyu, who had grown up, to prevent others from accidentally seeing her things. Girls should be more particular.

Yang Jun once suggested that the mother and daughters go to the back room to rest, but the kang in the back room was very small, and his mother insisted that Yang Jun stay in the back room all the time, while the two girls and his mother stayed in the front room, which was extremely inconvenient.

So we still have to build an additional house. This plan was only recently made. Yang Jun is currently thinking about how to build it reasonably. After all, building a house is not a trivial matter. What is more important is to grasp the process of revealing wealth. If this is not handled properly, big problems may easily arise.

"Mom, I'm thinking about something. I don't want to eat anymore."

Cheng Xiaoyu was still a little shy thinking about what happened yesterday. She was really embarrassed to see people, even though her mother didn't know anything about it.

Of course, she was not so shy when it came to Yang Jun, as if everything went on naturally.

"What are you thinking about that you didn't even eat? Tell me."

Fan Ping was an experienced person after all, and she felt something was wrong.

Why does this girl's condition seem somewhat similar to when she just got married?

As soon as she sat down on the kang, she asked, "Did Xiaoshan bully you?"

"No, mom, Brother Xiaoshan is very good to me."

Cheng Xiaoyu's smile became brighter and more charming. Saying this name seemed to give her a feeling of the arrival of spring.

"Why are you smiling so brightly..." Fan Ping's heart skipped a beat.

She vaguely understood that something must have happened.

But knowing Yang Jun's temperament, and the fact that Cheng Xiaoyu was not feeling unwell, it was not that thing that happened, but something else.

Even she couldn't explain it.

"Really, Mom, don't worry. I don't have anything to worry about. You should just worry about Aimin's schooling."

Fan Ping rolled her eyes at her and said, "I'm worried about your schooling. It's been several months, and the school hasn't even notified you about starting classes. I've already paid the tuition."

She didn't forget the five-dollar tuition fee and paid it with gritted teeth.

"I don't know either. From what Brother Xiaoshan said, I guess school will start early next year."

The disaster situation did not destroy everything instantly. In fact, by the beginning of next year, everyone will still be able to be self-sufficient. At most, they can just eat more wild vegetables to fill their stomachs. The situation only became serious because the weather was too bad in the second half of the year.

Therefore, this year the school was temporarily closed due to the impact of some wasteful behavior. The situation will definitely be better at the beginning of next year.

"That's good. Otherwise, I'm afraid you won't be able to keep up. What will you do if you can't go to college?"

"If you can't go, then don't go. When the time comes, find someone to marry and don't cause trouble for you." "Nonsense, I don't think you're causing trouble. I love you so much at home." Fan Ping is loved by both her daughter and son, so her views are a little different from those of ordinary rural mothers.

Other families are afraid that their daughters will be useless if they study too much, because they will get married in the future anyway, so their daughters will just be helping other families study.

Fan Ping thought that since they were all flesh and blood, what difference did they make? She even supported her daughter to go to school, and she even went to high school, which put her ahead of many people's thinking.

It would be better if she went to college. At that time, she would receive subsidies and would not have to worry about her studies. She could live on her own in the future.

Having lived through that era, she has seen too many hardships faced by girls, and she hopes that such hardships will not happen to her own daughter.

Therefore, she never forced Cheng Xiaoyu to get married, and even if someone came to propose marriage, she would drive them away.

"Hehe, mom is the best." Cheng Xiaoyu naturally knew how much her mother loved her and her brother, and immediately hugged Fan Ping affectionately and acted coquettishly.

"Haha, since mom is the best, why don't you tell mom what happened to you today?"

Everything about her is written on her face. She's really not afraid of others seeing it, this silly girl.

"Mom!" Cheng Xiaoyu was embarrassed again.

"You seem so shy. Is it about Xiaoshan again?"

"Hmm..." After a long while, she finally murmured a word.

Seeing this, Fan Ping sighed and said, "Forget it, I'm too lazy to ask you anymore. Anyway, remember, girls can't be casual. If you have something important to say, you have to tell me first."

It was because of her teachings that Cheng Xiaoyu said that she would go and talk to her mother first.

"I see, mother. I've always remembered what you said."

On the other side, Yang Jun returned home carrying a bamboo tube.

"Xiaoshan, what weird things have you made again?" Yang Yumei looked at the bamboo tube with some curiosity.

Yang Jun shook the bamboo tube: "This one?"

He suddenly lowered his head and whispered:

"Actually, it's all meat. Let's eat it later when we get inside."

"Really?" Who wouldn't be greedy for meat? Yang Yumei swallowed her saliva when she heard this word.

Seeing him bringing something home again, I was no longer surprised and pulled him aside.

"Xiaoshan, come here and see if this hat fits you."

It turned out that Li Xiaohua had nothing to do, so she knitted him a hat.

This style has the chin and both sides of the neck sewn in to keep out the cold wind and is very warm to wear.

But it has a fatal flaw, it is ugly.

Fortunately, no one thinks this way now. Everyone focuses on practicality and appearance is secondary.

"Mom, let me try first."

Yang Jun didn't dislike it and just took it and put it on.

It’s a bit ugly, but it’s really warm. My ears don’t feel cold anymore.

"Xiaoshan, I can't even see your face after you put it on." The second sister said gloatingly.

"Why don't you give this to your second sister? I already have a scarf."

After a while, Yang Jun felt stuffy again. Wearing this thing felt like it was restricting him.

"That's fine. It will look the same to any of you." Li Xiaohua didn't have any objection now, mainly because she wanted to knit three anyway.

These words just stopped Yang Yumei from laughing.
