Upstart Reborn

"Is Xiao Yun here?" The little aunt's voice came from the front yard.

My uncle's and uncle's houses are one in front of the other, so which one is a little turbulent, and the other family can find out as long as they walk to the yard.The little aunt looked at the time and felt that Mu Xiaoyun was almost here, so she came to take a look, but she didn't expect to hear the voice inside.She walked into the house and saw two people sitting on the sofa, a teenager and a young man.

There is still the shadow of Mu Xiaoyun when he was a child in his mind. Even though he has grown tall and big now, my aunt knew at the first sight that the boy was Mu Xiaoyun. "Xiao Yun."

"Little aunt." Mu Xiaoyun looked at her with a smile. Mu Xiaoyun had three uncles. When he had several aunts, both the eldest aunt and the younger aunt were beautiful women when they were young. They were tall and thin.And the second aunt is a bit shorter, 155 in height, with a bit of flesh all over her body, but the second aunt smiles the most kindly.

So when Mu Xiaoyun was young, he liked to come to his grandmother's house very much.

"It's really Xiao Yun. He's so tall. It's been a few years since I saw him." Like the eldest aunt, the little aunt looked at Mu Xiaoyun happily, with tears in her eyes.The harmony of Li Aiqing's natal relatives is something that Mu Youcheng's family will never be able to match.On the contrary, the relatives of the two families formed a stark contrast, and because of this, Mu Xiaoyun liked the relatives here even more.

"It's just that I haven't seen my aunt for a few years, she seems a little old." Mu Xiaoyun teased.There is a kind of person who doesn't need to flatter and say something nice, because such a person makes the other party feel more cordial.

"Yeah, you haven't come here for five years, how can my little aunt not grow old? How is it like your eldest aunt, your cousin often wears her facial mask, which looks glorious in everything." The little aunt joked to the big on my aunt.

"You said it nicely. You're getting old, and making a mask won't change the fact that you're old." The little aunt is in a good mood, so she looks good and energetic.

"I'll call your uncle. He probably went to play mahjong. The meal is already ready. Sister-in-law and Xiao Yun are together. Come to my house to eat. Let's have a good time." The little aunt said flatly.

"Okay, then I'll call your elder brother too, so as not to say that I don't cook, this old man has recently gone through menopause like a woman, and his anger is getting bigger and bigger." The aunt said and went to make a call .

"Brother has a very good temper, unlike the one in my family. He lowered his face without saying a word, so the husband and wife in this life are enemies in the previous life, otherwise why would he be so angry?" The little aunt sighed and looked at To Xia Minghe, "This is Xiao Yun's friend, right?"

"Hello, Auntie." Xia Minghe greeted him equally politely.

"Well, my friend, when I came back this time, he helped me with many things. He is my best friend." Mu Xiaoyun introduced, "It's good for my little aunt to call her Minghe."

"Okay, our family Xiao Yun is young and ignorant, please be considerate."

"No, Yunyun is very sensible." Xia Minghe's attitude towards elders, or in other words, his attitude towards unfamiliar elders, was a courtesy.Because of this, the first impression he gave to outsiders was pretty good, except that he didn't speak much and looked a little cold.

But today, facing the relatives and elders of Mu Xiaoyun's family, the usual indifference on Xia Minghe's face has faded a lot.Young Master Xia also knows how to treat people. Although he doesn't feel comfortable smiling at strangers, he can at least be kind.

"That's right, Xiao Yun is sensible. He has been sensible since he was a child. Such a young child is too sensible to make people feel sad. But fortunately, he has survived and Xiao Yun has grown up. I learned about Xiao Yun from the newspaper. , a 13-year-old genius, has caused a sensation in the entire education world. Xiao Yun is so powerful, and everyone will follow suit." Relatives, many of them are like this. When the family is well, everyone feels honored.And if the family is not doing well, some relatives will feel ashamed and don't want to get too close.

"I called your elder brother and said that I will play mahjong with my younger brother, and I will be back soon. These two brothers, being together every day is not enough, even mahjong together." Although the eldest aunt was muttering, the expression on her face was happy Yes, brothers are in harmony, sisters-in-law are good, and a family is the simplest happiness.

"Then let's go to eat first, it's not worth waiting." The little aunt snorted directly, and smiled at Mu Xiaoyun again, her attitude changed too quickly, "Xiao Yun, Minghe, right? First hand, but the cooking skills are not as good as your eldest aunt, if it doesn't taste good, you have to hold it in your heart and can't say it."

"Don't worry, little aunt, I know your cooking skills. I have been to many hotels, and your cooking skills are better than the chefs there. Otherwise, let my friend try it later. , His family has hired a chef, if you don’t believe what I say, you can always believe what he says.” Half of what Mu Xiaoyun said was nice, but whether it was the eldest aunt or the younger aunt, or even their second aunt, As for the cooking skills, Mu Xiaoyun is not exaggerating at all, it is definitely good, but Li Aiqing's cooking skills are not good.

Using Mu Xiaoyun's words, his mother just boiled all the raw things, and then added some salt to make it more flavorful, but she didn't know how to put some green onions to make the dishes more delicious, and she didn't even know how to add some green onions to make the dishes more delicious. Add some sugar or vinegar to make the dish a little more delicious.

Regarding this point, his stepfather thinks that this is the most nourishing food, oil, salt, soy sauce and vinegar, which should not be eaten in excess.

What is this called?

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, Mu Xiaoyun understands.

"It's late, it's late, you won't wait for us to eat, will you?" Uncle Mu Xiaoyun's voice sounded as soon as the dishes were set, and then the two brothers walked in together with the uncle.The two brothers are about the same height.In fact, people from Li Aiqing's natal family are not as tall as her peers.But in the child's life, Mu Xiaoyun, and even Mu Xiaoyun's cousins, are quite tall.

Don't know why this is.

"Uncle, Uncle." Seeing them coming in, Mu Xiaoyun greeted them with a smile.

"I haven't seen you for five years. Your uncle said that you have changed a lot. I still don't believe it. No matter how great the changes in the past five years are, you should grow taller. Now it seems that this kid is really not ordinary tall. , Xiao Yun, how tall are you?" Everyone is easy-going people. Generally, uncles and nephews haven't seen each other for five years. At the first moment, they always don't know what to say. pile of words.

"The net height is 178, but don't worry, uncle, I'm still in high school." Mu Xiaoyun took each other. With his height in his previous life, he could grow to 182.

"Enough is enough. If you grow up, it will be hard to find a wife. There are few girls as tall as your two aunts. Girls nowadays are all short."

Uncle and uncle are seated.

"It's okay for a girl to be short. Who in our family is taller? Now, if a girl is short, she's petite." The uncle laughed and chatted together, "What do you say in this fashion? If a man is short, it's a disability. If a woman grows tall, she is slender. If a man grows tall, he will be said to have strong limbs and a simple mind. If a woman grows fat, then..." At that time, my uncle didn't read many books. He was at the undergraduate level, but words or idioms were not popular at that time, so for a while, the little uncle really couldn't think of how to say it.

"It's graceful to be a woman and fat, but it's fat to be a man." Mu Xiaoyun smiled. Although he has a completely different life concept from his elders, this kind of simple getting along with him is annoying to the point of death. My heart also felt calm.

When I was young, especially during Chinese New Year, every time I came to my grandma's house, I always talked and laughed like this.Mu Xiaoyun remembers clearly that he learned sesame sauce here, watching his father and uncle playing mahjong, he sat together, watched it a few times and he was good at it.

There were six people at a table, and the elders talked a lot, but they were all about Mu Xiaoyun, and there were many cold jokes about the uncle.

When talking about Li Aiqing, the uncles and aunts wondered why he married a foreigner.

Mu Xiaoyun explained: "When we went abroad, we lived in a friend's house. That person was single and took good care of my mother and me. Besides, my mother was still young and always needed someone to take care of me. So I thought , if that person treats mother well, it doesn't matter what country he is from."

"That's right, kindness is the most important thing. Don't be like that Mu Youcheng, you are so fucking heartless." The uncle couldn't help scolding.

"What am I talking about?" The eldest aunt blinked secretly, telling the eldest uncle to be careful when speaking.

"It's okay, my mother has let go, how can I care about it, and everyone's relationship is not compatible with divorce, and I have no right to interfere with a child. At least, no one has abandoned me, right?" Mu Xiaoyun's calm and indifferent attitude made her feel Uncles and aunts breathed a sigh of relief.

They were afraid that the child had hidden words in his heart, and that he would not be able to figure it out.

Yes, no matter how heartless Mu Youcheng was, he, who was still a child at that time, had no right to interfere with the affairs of adults.

After one meal, there are at least 10 people's worth of dishes on a table, but they ate them all. Mu Xiaoyun ate the most. Although he is usually a bit picky about his food, he ate it with relish today.At first Xia Minghe thought that he was being supportive and giving his little aunt face, but later found out that it was not.

Although Mu Xiaoyun ate slowly mouthful by mouthful, every mouthful he ate was full of flavor.

"It seems a bit stretched." Standing up and stretching, "It's been a long time since I've eaten at home, my mother's cooking skills are really bad." Mu Xiaoyun sighed.

"Then stay here for a few more days and let your aunt cook more delicious food." The little uncle picked it up.

"Well, I brought my luggage and I have this plan." Mu Xiaoyun was not polite.

Originally, he only planned to stay for one night, and went back to his hometown the next day to take a look. After all, he was born there, and he wanted Xia Minghe to see the place where he landed. This was his confession to him from beginning to end.

But I didn't expect that this meal would take two nights to eat from my uncle's house to my uncle's house, then to my second uncle's house, and finally to my aunt's house.On the way, those cousins ​​and cousins ​​who were away heard that he was back, so most of them rushed back home, and then went to the city to open a box and sang KTV. Throughout the whole process, although Xia Minghe was very silent, when he arrived at KTV, he also Being able to sing two songs surprised Mu Xiaoyun.

Xia Minghe loved French, at first he just liked it, but later he became fond of it because of Mu Xiaoyun.However, KTV does not have French songs, only English songs are sung.

Mu Xiaoyun did as the Romans did, and sang popular songs with everyone. It's just that he grew up listening to foreign languages, and the popular songs were as out of tune as possible.

Two days later, one night when Mu Xiaoyun and Xia Minghe planned to go back, Mu Xiaoyun talked to his little uncle.

"Uncle, we are on our own. If you have any thoughts, just tell me directly. I have seen you hesitate to speak these days. I am afraid that it is not happy to hide something in your heart. I am not a three-year-old boy anymore, you can rest assured .” Mu Xiaoyun leaned against the balcony, looking at his little uncle who was smoking on the balcony.

The younger uncle is different from the older uncle in his openness, but the younger uncle also loves to laugh, and when he smiles, he looks very similar to Li Aiqing.

The little uncle took a few puffs of cigarettes and threw the cigarette butts off the balcony. There was a water drop pool below, so it was okay. Mu Xiaoyun bought this cigarette as a gift for some relatives, so he took another one out, wanting to continue smoking.

In the past few years, because of Li Aiqing's matter, he has been worried a lot. The relationship between him and Li Aiqing is a little deeper than other brothers, because the two are close in age.When his father died, Li Aiqing was only seven or eight years old, and he was only three years old. At that time, he ran behind Li Aiqing.

When his wife was still waiting for Li Aiqing to get married, he accompanied him to Mu Youcheng's family, and the villagers there introduced him, so the relationship between siblings was quite deep.

"Xiao Yun, tell uncle, what do you think of your father?"
