Chapter 12 Trust Me

Before Ding Shuyuan said anything, Yuan Xizhou spoke first: "Aunt Jinfu's words are too extreme. Reading can make shallow and ignorant people enlightened, elegant, and broaden their horizons, instead of being confined to one world and muddled for a lifetime."

"Shuyuan studied agriculture and came to the countryside to carry forward what she has learned over the years. As family members, we should support her a lot. How can we discourage her enthusiasm."

Yuan Xizhou's eyes were full of disapproval, and Aunt Ding's words were so meaningful that everything was wrong.

This poor kid is scolding her, right?

Ding Shuyuan held back her laughter, not letting the elders find out her little happiness.

Hey, say more if you can.

The relationship between her aunt and her mother is okay on the surface, but the relationship in private is not very good, especially the aunt's mouth is broken, she often talks about people behind her back, even when she was a child, she was said several times, so she is quite annoying to her aunt .

Her uncle is an accountant in the village, and he takes over her grandfather's class. He usually puts on airs.

When I was young, my parents ran a waste factory in the county, and my uncle looked down on me too. It was only when the family conditions improved that it got better.

Therefore, the relationship between the two is average.

Now that she has just returned to the village after graduation, the uncle's family came to assassinate her, which really makes people unhappy.

Grandpa Ding agreed with Yuan Xizhou's words very much: "You are right, studying is a good thing, no matter what you do in the future, you can't do without a diploma or education."

He was able to become an accountant because he had studied when he was a child, so he is very supportive of the schooling of his children and grandchildren.

Grandma Ding thought that anything was fine, but what the old man said must be right, but she always felt that the name was familiar when she looked at Yuan Xizhou: "Are you from the village?"

Surname Yuan?

There are only a few people with foreign surnames in the village, and Grandma Ding really didn't remember the one with the surname Yuan.

After all, Yuan Xizhou's family is deserted. Who would have thought that he is a family with nobody at home.

Yuan Xizhou said respectfully: "Grandma Ding, I am Yuan Wang's grandson."

Grandma Ding suddenly said, "Ah, I remembered, your mother is Yuan Chunxi."

Thinking about the little luotou back then, she was full of emotions for a moment: "You have grown up so much, your grandma, grandpa and the others must be very happy to see you."

Grandpa Ding was stunned for a moment: "After being away for so many years, it's time to come back and have a look. Have you visited your grandfather's grave?"

Yuan Xizhou answered obediently, coping with it freely.

Ding Shuyuan poked him in the back quietly. The man was tense, and when she touched him like this, he stopped her with his eyes.

Ding Shuyuan was insane, she pretended to be decent, why was she nervous.

"Don't stand and talk, sit down and eat, or the food will be cold." Ding Shuyuan took the chopsticks and arranged them, and said to the uncle and aunt:
"Grandpa and aunt, why don't you stay and eat?" Ding Shuyuan changed the subject: "But I don't know if you came back today, you didn't cook much, and it was barely enough for four people. When the time comes, one person will eat less, and then eat after eating." Just order fruit pads."

After saying this, how could they have the nerve to stay, Uncle Ding directly refused: "No need, we just go home and get something to eat."

Aunt Ding's eyes lingered on the food on the table, she suppressed her longing and said, "It's getting late, let's go back first."

The longer she stays, the hungrier she will be, so she might as well leave early to save embarrassment.

Looking at the good food and dishes they ate, Aunt Ding murmured in her heart, what a prodigal.

But this has nothing to do with Ding Shuyuan. After the uncle and aunt left, the four of them ate to their heart's content.

"Yuan Yuan studies well, cooks delicious food, and is really smart." Grandma Ding is very fond of her granddaughter.

"I didn't do this, it's Yuan Xizhou's craftsmanship."

Grandpa Ding and Grandma Ding were shocked: "I didn't expect you to cook, Xiaozhou. Your father is really blessed to have a son like you to take care of him."

They felt extremely sympathetic to Yuan Xizhou, he must have had a bad life in the past few years, how can a boy know how to cook, and he is not a cook.

It is said that if there is a stepmother, there will be a stepdad. Xiaozhou has been hard for him for so many years, hey.

Looking at the expressions of the two elders, Yuan Xizhou immediately guessed what they had imagined, and he didn't make a fool of himself or defend his father.

"Cooking is one of my pleasures, and I don't do it often."

While washing the dishes, Yuan Xizhou wanted to help, but Grandpa Ding and Grandma Ding dragged her to talk. Ding Shuyuan shrugged.

"You guys talk, I'll finish brushing in a while, don't worry about me."

The two elders held Yuan Xizhou and talked for a while, asking when they would meet again, about his life in Beijing, and about Ding Shuyuan's land contract.

Ding Shuyuan said her plan seriously, Grandma Ding sighed, and said something lightly about her, but she couldn't bear to say something serious.

Yuan Xizhou helped her speak and stood firmly by her side.

Grandpa Ding didn't say anything immediately, he smoked his dry pipe, and after a while he said: "Since you're ready to do it, then do it well, if it's useful for me and your grandma, just open your mouth."

"I can't help much, but I can do it for a few more years."

Ding Shuyuan was so moved by this, she hurried forward to hug the old couple.

"You're such a big kid, you're still acting like a baby." Grandma Ding smiled happily.

Grandpa Ding had a straight face, but his eyes were also filled with joy.

"Where are you staying tonight? Why don't you go back with us?" Grandma Ding looked at the time, it was time to go home.

Two children, a man and a widow, cannot live together, even if they have nothing, it is not good to let others know.

Ding Shuyuan: "No, he lives at Aunt Xiu's house at night."

Grandpa Ding and Grandma Ding felt relieved, and went out with Yuan Xizhou, watching him enter the neighbor's house before leaving.

The next day, Ding Shuyuan took Yuan Xizhou to a big fair, and went back to the county in the afternoon to bring back seeds and saplings.

It will be planted in autumn in two days, and the seeds have to be processed in advance.

When the weather cools down, the saplings can also be transplanted.

Because of the huge quantity, she was afraid of damage during the handling process, so she also had a lot of things to do, and she had to keep an eye on them all the time, and she was quite busy.

With Yuan Xizhou around, she can relax a bit more.

Originally, Yuan Xizhou wanted to visit her parents, but it was a pity that she was not at home and went out to collect waste.

They haven't collected it by themselves for many years. Ding Shuyuan was quite surprised when he heard Xiaosun from the waste factory talk about it.

Xiaosun explained: "A few days ago, the scrap collectors in Dongli Village collected some antique furniture, and the proprietress went there. They really received some antiques, and I don't know their value."

As soon as Ding Shuyuan thought about it, he understood that his parents wanted to earn more money, and they were afraid that she would be short of money, so they wanted to give her money.

Ding Shuyuan's heart was astringent, and he pretended to be fine and said, "What about Zhenyang, where did he go? Didn't my parents let him work here?"

"Zhenyang was called away by his classmates, as if he was going out to play basketball."

"This brat knows how to play." Ding Shuyuan left the waste factory, clenched his fists and said, "If you don't succeed, you will succeed."

She must not fail.

Yuan Xizhou pressed her hand: "Don't put too much pressure on yourself, you have to believe in yourself and me."

 Yuan Xizhou rubbed his hands nervously: Are you meeting your parents now?Am I doing okay?

  Ding Shuyuan squinted: What nonsense are you talking about, why did you meet your parents?
