Travel through the farmhouse leisurely

Chapter 303 Good news (1)
Lin Xiaoqiao looked at his sister with a nervous expression on his face, nodded his head funny and said: "I know! I have promised my sister, I will not break my promise! However, if my sister still has something in her heart , you can tell me!"

After hearing this, Lin Xiaoxi immediately smiled and nodded, and replied, "Definitely! Definitely!"

In the days that followed, the two sisters lived on the farm all the time, soaking in the hot springs every day, and occasionally took the two little maids, Green Bamboo and Red Bamboo, to the tenants' houses in the village, visiting and listening to The gossip uttered by those peasant women made life comfortable and comfortable.

The two sisters live next to the hot spring, so they don't feel cold at all, and even the brazier can be used in the house. Therefore, Lin Xiaoqiao has been pulling his sister to live in Zhuangzi here until the end of the twelfth lunar month. Only then was he willing to pack his things and go back.

On the [-]th day of the twelfth lunar month, the academy had already started its annual vacation. The next day, Chen Xuewen brought two brothers, Lu Haojie and Dalang Erlang, to Zhuangzi to pick up Lin Xiaoqiao and sisters.

When seeing Lu Haojie again, Lin Xiaoxi was a little uncomfortable, although Lu Haojie was still the same as usual, and there was no abnormal behavior.

But now, as long as there is a boundary where Lu Haojie appears, Lin Xiaoxi always wants to hide himself a little bit intentionally or unintentionally, so he likes to keep his head down and hide behind everyone.

In addition, it seems that when she is with the big guys now, she talks less than before, and her sense of existence has been reduced a lot.

Lin Xiaoqiao saw all this in her eyes, but she didn't point it out. This kind of feeling suddenly happened to a young girl who was in love. It must take some time to get used to it.

Lin Xiaoxi was willing to hide, so she helped her cover it up. Lin Xiaoqiao was silently waiting for when her sister would stand up bravely to face her after fully understanding her own intentions.

Four young men came to Zhuangzi, soaked in a comfortable hot spring, and then took Lin Xiaoqiao and sisters back to the city.

Once at home, Mrs. Li dragged the two young ladies and complained: "You two little heartless, you go crazy when you go out, don't you? Are you planning to come back?"

Sister Lin Xiaoqiao looked at each other and smiled, it was really rare to see Li Shi, such a lovely side, they knew that they had been away from home for ten days, Li Shi must have missed them too much, so the two sisters were very happy There was a tacit understanding of keeping silent, allowing Li to scold her like this.

"Still laughing? The two little crazy girls came back after going out for more than ten days, and they didn't know how to say something like 'Mother, I miss you' to coax me. Only me, the mother, I'm thinking about you two little things in my heart, and I'm always worried about whether you two are eating well and sleeping well in Zhuangzi, it's really useless to worry about it!" Li Shi really felt a little uncomfortable this time Seeing that these two girls look very good, thinking about herself these days, thinking about it at home every day, if the two girls don't come back, her heart will be empty.

It's true, usually, the two daughters are always wandering around under my nose, and the outside of the house is quite lively, but once the two daughters leave, the two sons stay in the academy all day long, and my man is not a good man. He loves to talk a lot, so the people at home and outside seem much deserted.

However, even so, Mrs. Li shouldn't suddenly act petty in front of the two daughters.

Seeing Mrs. Li shed tears while she was talking, sisters Lin Xiaoqiao hurried forward and coaxed Mrs. Li well after talking sweetly.

Afterwards, Lin Xiaoqiao couldn't help feeling very strange, how his mother looked today, it was so strange, could it be that when the two of their sisters were not at home, something troublesome happened to Mrs Li, and it was still with Lin Erniu What's the matter?

In order to clear up his doubts, Lin Xiaoqiao went to find his father, Lin Erniu, and asked about it.

"Father, has something bad happened to my mother?" Lin Xiaoqiao asked.

Lin Erniu frowned immediately when he heard his daughter's question, and said, "I'm also puzzled, your mother's temper has been a bit weird recently, and she often gets petty, and sometimes she wipes away her tears in the middle of the night Here I come. I asked her if there was anything wrong, and she said it was nothing, but she felt so panicked and uncomfortable, she probably missed you two sisters! When I saw your mother like this, I wanted to pick you two up. I came back to accompany her, but your mother refused to let me pick her up. You said that it was warm in Zhuangzi, and you were afraid of the cold since you were a child, so it would be more comfortable to stay there."

As Lin Xiaoqiao listened, his brows became more and more wrinkled, and his expression became more solemn. He had a bad guess in his heart, could it be that Li Shi was so abnormal because he had reached menopause?

"Girl, I think you two should spend more time with your mother these two days. She really misses you." Lin Erniu said.

Lin Xiaoqiao nodded and replied, "Understood, Dad, we will."

So, in the two days after returning from Zhuangzi, sister Lin Xiaoqiao was almost always by Li Shi's side, chatting and laughing with her, and Li Shi's mood was really much better than before.

On the [-]th day of the twelfth lunar month, Lin Xiaoqiao's family set off to go back to the town. The day before the departure, Mrs. Li thought of Lu Haojie's life experience, so she asked him about his plans for this year's New Year: "Haojie, we are going back to town tomorrow. It's Chinese New Year, when will you set off to return home?"

Hearing Li Shi's question, Lu Haojie pretended to be indifferent, and replied with a smile: "Auntie, next spring I will be preparing to go to Beijing for an exam, so I have written a letter and told my uncle and aunt that this year's New Year will not be a good one." I’m going back, I want to stay here to study hard and prepare for the exam with all my strength.”

Although what he said was calm and calm, Lin Xiaoqiao still saw a trace of loneliness in his eyes. It's a big Chinese New Year, who wouldn't want to spend a happy New Year with their family?
With Lu Haojie's background, he was dependent on others, if his uncles and aunts really cared about him, they would not see a letter of greeting on weekdays.

Even if he is studying, he has to rely on his own part-time study to be able to continue studying. It can be seen that those uncles and aunts are probably not good people, at least they don't treat him sincerely.

Lin Xiaoqiao was a little hesitant, whether he should invite Lu Haojie to go on the road with them, and spend a warm and satisfying year at his own home this year, so that his sister would have more opportunities to get in touch with him and figure out how she felt in her heart as soon as possible.

Unexpectedly, Lin Xiaoxi, who has never liked talking, actually brought it up to Mrs. Li first: "Mother, brother Haojie is alone, so lonely when he is out for the New Year, why don't we invite him to celebrate the New Year with our family?" .”
