Return To 1998

When Ge Xiaozhu returned to Xujia Village, from the moment she entered the village, she clearly felt that the eyes of the villagers looking at her were a little different from before.

As for what is the difference?

She couldn't tell, she just felt different anyway.

Every now and then, villagers who see her greet her.

Xiaozhu is back?

Hey, Xiaozhu, your path is fine! I really didn't see it before!

You gave birth to a good son!

...

and many more.

When she walked into the house, she suddenly heard the sound of cooing chickens in the chicken coop in the corner.

Since the chickens and ducks in her family were taken away a few days ago, her chicken coop has been quiet these days. Suddenly, she heard chickens crowing in the chicken coop. She was stunned and looked at it subconsciously. past.

Looking through the wooden fence of the chicken coop, she really saw a few chickens in the chicken coop.

Mom! Are you back? Don't you have to go to the polder tonight?

Her daughter Ge Yuzhu's happy voice came, and Ge Xiaozhu heard the sound and looked around, and saw her daughter running towards her happily.

Where's your big brother?

Ge Xiaozhu asked worriedly.

Ge Yuzhu: Big brother, he's making soup in the kitchen! Old duck soup, hehe.

Old duck soup?

Ge Xiaozhu frowned, and quickly walked to the kitchen outside the back door.

In fact, Tongdao Xu, who was cooking soup at the stove, had already heard his mother's voice, but he did not welcome him out, because he knew that when his mother came back at this time, he would definitely have many questions to ask him.

But he didn't like to explain.

Yuan Shikong's hard life for so many years has made him develop a taciturn temperament long ago.

Not necessary, he generally does not like to talk.

He thought about facing his mother later, his sister should help him explain some problems to his mother, which would save him some words.

Footsteps quickly came to the kitchen door.

His mother's voice also came into his ears, Xiaodao! Didn't I tell you, that those things are gone? Why are you disobedient? What if those people hit you? You stupid child !

Tongdao Xu raised his head silently with a complicated expression and looked at his mother, who was in her early forties, with mixed feelings in her heart. Before his rebirth, his mother was in her sixties and had just passed away.

When she passed away, most of her hair was already white, and her face was full of wrinkles.

Although the mother in front of her is a little older than her peers, in Xu Tongdao's eyes, she is really too young.

Enduring the sour feeling in his heart, Tongdao Xu smiled slightly and said lightly, Mom! Don't you think I'm fine? Ren Shan is being bullied by others, and Ma Shan is being ridden by others. It is very difficult for our family now, but the more At this time, the more we can't be cowardly! By the way, have you lost your fever?

Ge Xiaozhu was a little surprised.

She felt that the eldest son was a little abnormal today. Whether it was his expression or the tone of his speech, he felt that he had suddenly grown up overnight, so she frowned, looked at Tongdao Xu suspiciously, opened her mouth, and sighed: But those People are not easy to mess with, and you're only 17... Did they beat you?

Mom! Don't worry! Big brother is fine, big brother even beat Xu Hengbing!

Ge Yuzhu comforted her mother in a brisk tone.

It saves Xu Tongdao's explanation.

What? Xiaodao, you also beat Xu Hengbing? Can you beat Xu Hengbing?

Ge Xiaozhu was surprised, he subconsciously stepped forward and pulled up Xu Tongdao, who was sitting at the door of the stove, and carefully looked up and down, back and forth.

Tongdao Xu didn't struggle and let his mother look at him uneasy. He just reached out and touched his mother's forehead to see if her fever had subsided.

As soon as his hand touched her forehead, Tongdao Xu frowned, because he clearly felt that the temperature of his mother's forehead was a little high, and her fever had not subsided.

Are you really not hurt?

Ge Xiaozhu breathed a sigh of relief,

But he couldn't help but confirm with his son.

Tongdao Xu snorted, Mom! Do you still have the antipyretic medicine? Do you still have to go to the polder in the afternoon?

Ge Xiaozhu: I've finished taking the antipyretic medicine, but I'm fine, uh... I heard Xiaoyu's father talking about you, so I asked the captain to take a leave of absence and come back. I have to rush back in a while, so I can't make it difficult for the captain. .

Xiaoyu her father?

Xu Tongdao repeated it in his heart, and then he realized that what his mother said should be Ge Xiaoyu and her father Ge Zhiping.

Speaking of which, he used to like Ge Xiaoyu!

But thinking of Ge Xiaoyu at this time, he had no trouble in his heart. After all, it was a long time ago for him.

Before his rebirth, in his life, although he had been having a bad life, there were a few women he liked before and after, and he was married once.

As for Ge Xiaoyu, whom he liked when he was a teenager, it has long been a dusty memory in his heart.

Now that he is 17 years old, all he wants to do now is to lead the family out of the predicament and let the whole family live a good life.

As for Ge Xiaoyu?

He doesn't have the heart to think about it now, and doesn't think how important she is.

Tongdao Xu turned his face and glanced at the steaming pot lid. After thinking for a while, he took out a stack of money from his trouser pocket, and took out two ten dollars and handed them to his sister Ge Yuzhu.

Mom's fever hasn't subsided, go to Dr. Wang's place to buy some medicine for Mom! Remember to bring an umbrella to prevent it from raining!

These days, medicines for fever and cold are very cheap. Sometimes, only one antipyretic is needed to reduce fever, and one antipyretic costs about one or two yuan.

However, he had a fever, and sometimes he had to buy some anti-inflammatory drugs, so he bought these drugs for his sister for 20 yuan, which was definitely enough.

Hey! You don't need to buy medicine anymore! What are you doing with this money? I'll be fine in two days...

As soon as Ge Xiaozhu saw his son take money to ask his daughter to buy medicine, he immediately reached out his hand to stop her, but Tongdao Xu pushed her hand away and put the twenty dollars into his sister's hand. .

The younger sister glanced at her mother, agreed, and quickly trotted away. When she was leaving, she couldn't help but look back at the stack of money in Tongdao Xu's hand.

She didn't know that eldest brother had so much money on him before.

Ugh!

Seeing that he couldn't stop it, Ge Xiaozhu sighed, and immediately noticed the stack of money in his son's hand, which was actually several hundred.

Xiao Dao, where did you get so much money?

If the two pigs that were taken away, and some chickens and ducks are not coming back, the money will be returned.

Xu Tongdao said, looked down at the stack of money in his hand, hesitated slightly, counted six hundred and handed it to his mother.

Mom! Take the six hundred yuan and keep it for the registration fee for Xiaolu and Yuzhu to start school.

Ge Xiaozhu took the money subconsciously and asked hesitantly, What about you? Are your high school entrance exam results coming out soon? In case you get into high school... tuition fees...

When it comes to tuition fees, her brows are full of worry.

Tongdao Xu smiled, with a calm expression, Mom! There must always be someone in our family to earn money. How can you afford the three of us to study? No matter if I can get into high school or not, I will read this book. I won’t read it anymore, I’ll find a way to go out and earn money in a few days, and I’ll come to study for Xiaolu and Yuzhu in the future!”

Ge Xiaozhu: This...
