"No." Xiao Le raised his hand and gestured twice on his neck, "The pattern is outward, not inward."

Second Aunt Xiao blushed, a little embarrassed, "I made a mistake, I'll change it again!"

After finishing speaking, he trotted back to the room.

Xiao Le washed his hands, entered the kitchen and drank two bowls of water, and just after he left the kitchen, he saw Xiao's mother enter the yard, "Mom, where have you been?"

No one was seen for most of the afternoon.

Mother Xiao smiled and said, "Didn't I meet your Aunt Liu on the road? I just sat down and said a few words casually."

……a few words.

Xiao Le raised his eyebrows lightly. It took about an hour or two for the elders to say a few words.

"What did you say?"

Thinking of the person he met that day, Xiao Le rolled his eyes, and brought up a stool for Xiao's mother to sit down, while he helped Xiao's mother take out the things in the back basket.

Seeing that Xiao Le was interested, Xiao's mother was also willing to tell him that after all, when the children grew up, they rarely pestered themselves to ask questions like they did when they were young.

"It's Mrs. Xue's eldest brother, Mo Dalang who just bought the green brick house in our village, you know?"

"I know," Xiao Le sat down on the bamboo stool next to him after finishing his work, propped his chin with his hands, and looked at Xiao's mother obediently, "He is tall and handsome, and he looks handsome."

"It's a pity that there is an extra scar on the face," Mother Xiao sighed, "Can ordinary people have that kind of scar?"

"But it's because of that scar," Xiao Le retorted, "I think he is very bloody! Didn't you say that Mrs. Xue's elder brother is gone? Now that he can come back, he is willing to stay here and guard his home Sister, from this point of view, he is very powerful, but also very tender."

The second sister-in-law Xiao just walked to the door of the main room when she heard Xiao Le say this. She looked at Xiao Le, and Xiao Le's eyes seemed to be bright at this moment.

"You are really good at talking today," Xiao's mother said about Aunt Liu, "Your Aunt Liu means the same thing as you. There is a niece in her natal family, and it happens to be the time to discuss marriage. Although Mo Dalang is in our village Outsiders."

"But his household registration is in our town, and the village is well known, and everyone knows the basics, so she was moved. I also thought of your fourth cousin. She and Mo Dalang are also very good."

"is it?"

Xiao Le pursed his lips, got up and put the bamboo stool aside, "I don't think you guys are tossing about, maybe they don't have that kind of thought."

"I don't care if he is there or not," Xiao's mother grabbed Xiao Le, stared at him and asked, "What about you? What do you think of your fourth cousin?"

"Mother!"

Xiao Le screamed, "She and I are born to be at odds! Have you forgotten when she hit me with a stone and broke my head?"

In fact, the original blame was self-inflicted, peeking at other people was discovered, so it was smashed.

"It's been a matter of how many years." Mother Xiao didn't let go, and continued to ask, "You were absent-minded when you came back from chopping firewood that day, and your second brother asked you and you didn't tell the truth. Since you don't like fourth cousin, then you Is there someone in your heart?"

"Don't worry," Xiao Le chuckled, "The second sister-in-law just entered the house not long ago, and the money is tight at home. I know it. Now my second brother and second sister-in-law and I want to earn money. I will talk about it in a year or two. .”

"One or two years? If you really have a sweetheart, your father and I will prepare money for you even if we sell everything!"

Second Aunt Xiao smiled in front of the door, and when Xiao Le saw her, he cast a look for help.

"Mother," Xiao Le hurriedly changed his tone, "He's still young, let's take care of him."

"what?"

Xiao's mother was taken aback, and when she let go of her hands, Xiao Le said that sister-in-law has something to do with you, and took the opportunity to sneak out of the yard.

"Mother," Second Aunt Xiao stepped forward holding the clothes, "Tomorrow is your birthday, this is the clothes my uncle asked me to change, try it."

"When did this kid take it?"

Seeing the familiar color, Mother Xiao stood up and took it. As soon as it was unfolded, her eyes lit up, "This dress is not like this!"

"This is what my uncle thinks..." The second sister-in-law Xiao hurriedly talked about what happened. It was the first time that the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law talked so much, so harmoniously.

In the end, Xiao's mother hugged the dress with joy and looked at Xiao's second sister-in-law, "He is caring, and you are tired, mother is very happy."

Second Aunt Xiao hurriedly waved her hands, "It's all my uncle's idea."

At this time, Xiao Le was squatting on the hillside directly opposite to the big tile-roofed house with a smile on his face, watching.

This distance is not far, but if you walk from this hillside, you have to go downhill, cross the village river, and then climb up to the same height as him before you can reach the gate of the house.

That house is the most magnificent house in the village, but there are only a few blue brick and large tile houses in this village. Although this house is older, it still attracted the attention of the villagers at that time.

The house has not been lived in for more than two years, and it is somewhat damp. Most of the furniture inside is unusable. Mo Cheng is very patient. He washes the usable ones and puts them in the yard for more drying. The unusable ones are used as firewood.

At this time, he just went up to the roof, and there was some rain leaking in front of the main room, so he had to pick up and stack the tiles, and he felt something was wrong when he went up.

He turned around subconsciously, and saw a person squatting on the opposite hillside.

Although he couldn't see the man's appearance clearly, his figure reminded Mo Cheng of Xiao Lang who was fetching water by the river that day.

Seeing Mo Cheng looking this way, Xiao Le stood up and left happily with his hands behind his back.

That small step is indeed somewhat eye-catching.

A little surprise flashed in Mo Cheng's eyes.

After the other party went down the hill and lost sight of anyone, Mo Cheng turned around and continued to work.

In the evening, when Mrs. Xue Si came with two maids to deliver side dishes, Mo Cheng suddenly asked, "When I came that day, I met Xiaolang in the upper reaches of the village river. Thanks to him, I was able to find your place accurately."

It was such an early age to fetch water from the upper reaches of the village river.

Miss Xue thought for a while, "How old are you?"

"He is a young and handsome young man."

Mo Cheng rubbed his index finger and thumb a few times.

"That may be the Xiao family's Saburo," Mrs. Xue thought about what happened before, and let the two children play in the yard. "Speaking of Xiao Sanlang, I am both guilty and grateful."

"How to say?"

"That morning, Xue Si forced me to..."

Even though it has passed, but now in detail, Mrs. Xue still feels ugly, and her hatred for Xue Silang has increased a little.

"So that's how it is," Mo Cheng pursed his thin lips, listening to the noise of playfulness in the yard, and looking at his sister who was crying in front of him, he said softly, "With me here, that beast has no way to turn around." You don't have to think about those days anymore."

Miss Xue, who wiped away her tears, laughed when she heard the words.

"This is the last time I cry in front of my brother, and it may be the day when I should laugh."

"That's a good idea."

Mo Cheng nodded.

Mrs. Xue left and said, "Tomorrow is Xiao Sanlang's birthday. Brother, you are new to Anjia, so you should go to celebrate your birthday and get familiar with it."

"I understand." Mo Cheng nodded, patted the little girl's head, saw the older girl looking at him helplessly, bent down again, and picked up the two girls, "I'll take you back home."

Originally Mo Cheng let them stay overnight, but Mrs. Xue thought more about it.

Although he is a real brother, if he stays here overnight, it will cause gossip, not to mention that Xue Silang is not dead yet and needs someone to "take care of him."

Although my elder brother didn't care about those gossips, fourth lady Xue didn't want to cause Mo Cheng any trouble, after all he was still alone.

It was the first time for the two girls to be hugged firmly for such a long time, and they were a little unfamiliar at first, but now that they were sent home together, the two girls were reluctant to let go.

Seeing this, Mrs. Xue said with a smile, "I will miss my uncle in the future, so I will go to my uncle's house."

Only then did the girls let go of their hands.

After Mo Cheng left, Fourth Lady Xue opened and closed Xue Silang's room, looked down at him who was drowsy, and poured another bowl of wine for him.

In the early morning, just as Xiao's mother was about to get up, Xiao's father held her down.

"Today is your birthday. Both Erlang and Sanlang have told me to let you take a rest today and don't do anything."

Xiao's mother was very sweet in her heart, and when she listened carefully, there was no movement outside the house, but the sound of breaking firewood came from the kitchen.

"Bring me my dress, I'll wear it today."
