sunk in yesterday

Liu Wan's house is on the slope above Li's house, not far away, so they can find it without leading the way.

Although the door was also tightly closed, the warm light shining through the gap was like a lamp in the darkness, gently expelling the chill from their bodies.

Pushing the door open from the outside, Wan'er jumped out of her father's arms immediately, and happily went into the kitchen while calling her mother.

"Sit down first, everyone, just treat this place as your own home. I'll go inside and help out, so that everyone can eat hot food and warm up as soon as possible." Liu Wan smiled and pulled a few chairs over, and gave them steaming chairs. After the hot water bottle was put on, the curtain was lifted with a cat on his waist, and he disappeared from sight.

After hearing no footsteps, Liu Qianyu sighed faintly, "It's true that people are more angry than others. Look at that Li, how he thinks now makes people angry."

In ancient times, if a woman married well, she would have a good life. The era restricted too many women. Although it was not a long time, the participants have a good impression of Liu Wan so far.

"Sister Zhao, sit next to me, let's chat." Seeing that Zhao Xiaomeng was sitting diagonally opposite, Liu Qianyu waved to her, and did not forget to push Shen Wei who was next to her aside. open.

Shen Wei was almost dug to the ground by this blow, he hurriedly supported the table, pulled his face and shouted: "Oh, grandma, can I not chat with you?"

"Go away, what's there to talk about with a stinky old man." Liu Qianyu despised him like chasing flies.

"Huh?! Where do I stink, you should smell it carefully—"

"I warned you not to get too close to me, I did it—"

Holding the cup, Zhao Xiaomeng was amused by their bickering, "Here we come."

Zhao Xiaomeng sat between the two of them, a bench was fully occupied by the three of them, Meng Tianhua stood awkwardly at the door, with cold wind blowing on his back from time to time.He had a lot of conversations with Liu Qianyu along the way, but the other party used himself as air, and didn't reply. He really didn't mean to forgive him for softening.

So he had no choice but to cast his eyes on Shen Wei.

"Shen..."

"Hey Xia Ming, tell me about what you just said on the road."

As soon as he got up, Shen Wei suddenly turned his head and lay down on the table to ask Xia Zhuo for advice.

"What's there to say?" Xia Zhuo almost wrote the words "Are you stupid" on his face, picked up Guan Yuzhou, filled him with hot water and blew it on his mouth, "And this is all It's on someone else's territory, if you can't talk about it, you can think about it yourself."

Shen Wei groaned, looked at him through the wisps of white smoke, and said suddenly, "When are you going to have a child?"

"Pfft—" Xia Zhuo spit out the mouthful of water that he had just drank into his mouth.

"Don't get excited!" Shen Wei couldn't defend himself, his neck retracted and his chin squeezed out two and a half layers, and he wiped his face with his sleeve rudely, "I'm just curious, curious!"

Xia Zhuo's face turned red, "You are so curious!"

Guan Yuzhou patted him on the back, and even glanced at his belly tenderly, "Is there any movement?"

Xia Zhuo stared like a ghost, thinking that she was hallucinating.

movement?What's happening?Is it the movement he thought of?

Shen Wei also looked at his stomach in shock: "No way, you will do this too?! Could it be that the dream has strengthened this?!"

I can do it with a hammer!Xia Zhuo gritted his teeth and pulled Guan Yuzhou's collar, his tone was not very friendly: "I don't know if I can give birth to you? Do you want to touch me again to confirm my gender, and then I will give you a chance to regret it?!"

Guan Yuzhou smiled muffledly, "Are you inviting me? But it's been a long time—well."

Xia Zhuo covered his mouth, his ears were red this time, he quickly denied: "What kind of invitation, I didn't!"

"Really don't want to?" Guan Yuzhou tilted his head, with a smile in the corner of his eyes.

His smile was a little foul, Xia Zhuo pursed his lips, reluctantly hummed: "I think."

Guan Yuzhou looked at him with raised eyebrows, his thick eyelashes covering his dark and unpredictable eyes.He lowered his head to Xia Zhuo's ear, his voice was so soft that only a few words overflowed: "Then... tonight... I will help you... and then..."

Seeing his indifferent appearance, if Xia Zhuo hadn't heard a series of inappropriate words for children, she would have thought that he was discussing the plot with her as usual.

Shen Wei: "What are you talking about? It's like playing charades."

Xia Zhuo's forehead was smoking, and he turned his head and said viciously: "None of your business!"

It's just that those eyes were soaked with water, and the voice was soft, and there was really no deterrent effect.

And it's pretty cool when you're angry.

Shen Wei searched for words in his mind for a long time, but he thought that his literary level was not enough, so he could only use these two vulgar words to describe it.

The topic just now was too embarrassing, Xia Zhuo pointed at the culprit and scolded: "Why don't you just ask Liu Zijin and his wife in person?!"

Shen Wei smiled apologetically while refilling his glass: "Oh, it's not like I didn't find a chance."

"Okay, I'll give you a chance next time." Xia Zhuo held grudges.

Shen Wei almost saluted back, "Don't, don't, I'm just kidding! Your lord doesn't remember the faults of villains, so please forgive me this once."

I really want Xia Zhuo to find an opportunity for him, I am afraid that when the time comes, I will send him directly into the coffin... Ah no, I will send him into the fire pit, saving even the effort of burying him.

Meng Tianhua couldn't get in a word, and he didn't dare to talk too much in front of those two, so he could only sit down in an empty corner and experience what it means to be disliked by everyone.

Not long after, Wan'er came out of the kitchen holding a plate.Her eyes were shining brightly, she seemed to be really happy, and she seemed to be bouncing when she walked.

"There are fish to eat tonight!" She sat next to Xia Zhuo, her two calves dangling in the air, "Daddy caught it with a fishing net, Daddy is amazing!"

Zhao Xiaomeng asked her: "Does Wan'er like Daddy very much?"

Wan'er nodded vigorously: "Wan'er also likes mother!"

The curtain was raised again, Liu Wan held the tray and reprimanded softly: "Wan'er, go sit on the other side, what does it look like to be crowded with guests."

Wan'er acted aggrievedly: "But Wan'er wants to sit with big brother."

"It's okay." Xia Zhuo smiled, and he stretched out his hand to pinch Wan'er's face, "Let her sit here."

He squeezed it and let it go, the soft and delicate touch remained on his fingertips.The skin was warm, and the little girl was a real human being.

After a brief silence, he saw a figure stepping out from behind Liu Wan.

As the mother of a delicate child, Wan'er's mother is wearing an embroidered shirt, without makeup on her face, but she looks fresh and pleasant.It was obvious that she was not used to showing her face in front of so many outsiders, so she just smiled at each of them restrainedly, "My little girl is ignorant, so I'm delaying everyone."

"No, no, we all like Wan'er." Zhao Xiaomeng was the first to defend her, "Besides, we came to disturb you suddenly and delayed your family."

But apart from her, because of Xia Zhuo's words on the road, the eyes of others looking at Wan'er are more or less mixed with some imperceptible barriers.Especially Shen Wei, he was in close contact with No. 1 female ghost head, and he couldn't get up or down in one breath. While watching the seven-year-old girl smiling sweetly, he kept muttering in his heart.

No matter how you look at it, Wan'er has nothing to do with ghosts.

how cute.

It's sunny and cheerful, how could it be a ghost!

Liu Wan took his wife and sat down at the other end of the table, said a few polite words, and apologized for the lack of bowls and chopsticks at home and had to use cups to make up.Perhaps because he has been in business all year round, he can speak well, but he didn't come up to explore the family like Centipede Face. Instead, he talked about his knowledge and experience abroad, and recommended several rare high mountains and rivers to them.

Xia Zhuo stopped wasting words where it was not necessary, and concentrated on eating his own food. Guan Yuzhou picked up some food for him from time to time, and he was able to talk to the head of the household with ease during the period.

On the other side, Zhao Xiaomeng was a person who dealt with parents all the year round, and Liu's also talked about it after a while.While raising her hand to gesture, Liu Shi suddenly noticed her loose cuffs, "Oh, why is there a tear in this dress."

Zhao Xiaomeng paused, looking at the place that was cut open by the villagers with a hoe during the first fire, "This...was accidentally scratched by a branch."

She thought about it again.

At that time, she didn't see the Liu family by the river, nor did she see Liu Wan who went back to save Wan'er and then escaped. It is estimated that the three members of this family either died at home or on the way home.

"Wan'er." Mrs. Liu called out to her daughter.

Wan'er held the bowl, obediently raised her head and waited for her to speak.

"I'll go to your room to mend big sister's clothes later, do you know?"

Before Zhao Xiaomeng could refuse, Wan'er hastily nodded.She looked very excited, and immediately discussed with Zhao Xiaomeng: "Does Big Sister play cards? Last time Daddy went to the city to bring it back to me, but no one has been able to play with Wan'er..."

The tone was pitiful, as if it was a sin not to agree.

But Zhao Xiaomeng, who had been immersed in her own world, suddenly woke up. She paused, and Liu Qianyu, who was beside her, also became nervous.It's okay for everyone to be together now, but if they want to go to the room alone, they have no idea.

"Wan'er, the guests still need to rest." Liu Wan retorted in disapproval.

Wan'er froze, and replied dryly: "Understood, Daddy."

Liu Qianyu was still hesitating, she had no idea, she didn't know whether to advance or retreat.

Guan Yuzhou glanced calmly, "How many people are required to play the cards?"

The curative effect of these words is comparable to that of spring rain, Wan'er immediately turned her back, stretched out her hand and compared a number, "Four!"

It's not one-on-one, Zhao Xiaomeng relaxed a little, Xia Zhuo didn't raise her head, "Then go."

The two opened their mouths back and forth, as if giving people a reassurance.After Zhao Xiaomeng agreed, Liu Qianyu also asked, "Can you bring me another one?"

"Of course!" Wan'er blushed with joy.

Shen Wei was not at ease, and tentatively pointed at himself: "Then bring me another one?"

"Big brother can come too!" Wan'er giggled, and was caught by the opposite father and said a few words, and the excitement eased a bit.

After the meal was over, Wan'er immediately led the three of them to her small room in a joyous manner.Before leaving, Shen Wei still wanted to go to Laxia Zhuo - he now felt that it was the safest side for teachers and students, but Guan Yuzhou gave him a sideways look, and then he let go and walked away unwillingly.

A floor away, Wan'er's joyful voice could also be heard, chirping like a lark.Liu Wan couldn't help but smile when he heard this, "She is usually spoiled by us, she dares to ask for anything."

That being said, his expression was gentle, and he was obviously in a good mood.

Guan Yuzhou didn't care much, "No one usually plays with her?"

Liu Wan sighed.

"I don't stay at home all day long, and her mother also has work to do, and she is usually alone. I originally planned to have another child to accompany her, but I have tried so far to no avail."

After saying a few words, Mrs. Liu came over and put away the table, not forgetting to tell him to make the kite he promised to Wan'er, and don't be an adult who doesn't mean anything.

The whole family is concerned about their daughter, of course Liu Wan will not forget, he asked Xia Zhuo and the others to go upstairs to rest, they must be very tired from the journey.

Xia Zhuo promised, but did not move, watching him get up and go to the corner of the wall to pull out a few strips of bamboo.

If you read correctly, under these bamboo strips is the pyre for burning fire.

Generally, there is not enough firewood at home. This kind of bamboo strips that look like they have been carefully broken from bamboo are even more precious. They are usually used to weave things, and there is no reason to use them as firewood at a lower price.

As if noticing his strange gaze, Liu Wan touched the smooth bamboo piece and said while doing the work: "Actually, Wan'er's mother is not good at needlework. But something happened a few years ago, and she will never do it again." After touching this thing, I don’t want to sell it for money. I cut so many bamboos and turned them into useless scraps in the end. After the new year, I plan to take them to Beijing to settle down. There are so many that I can’t take with me It’s also a waste, so I usually use it to make some gadgets for Wan’er.”

"A few years ago?" Xia Zhuo pretended to say casually: "What is so serious." So much so that he gave up a craft for eating.

Liu Wan suddenly fell silent.

Just when Xia Zhuo thought that he would avoid talking about it and would not say a word, Liu Wancai opened his mouth heavily.

"At that time we didn't have Wan'er, and her mother and I had only married not long ago... After careful calculation, eight years have passed."
