Chapter 18
"Lingbao, your eyes..."

After being shocked, Erhuazi shook his head and looked at Lingbao again, wondering if it was his own illusion?He seemed to see Lingbao's eyes change color.

Shen Su'e came out of the kitchen at this moment, and shouted in the direction of her second son, "What are you doing at the door? Hurry up!"

"Oh." In response, Er Huazi hurriedly walked towards his mother.

"Take this money. It's ten yuan in total. Let's see how many food stamps you can buy." Shen Su'e folded one piece of five yuan and five pieces of one yuan neatly, handed them out, and said, "Don't play tricks. Did you hear that?"

"How can I play tricks? Don't worry, I will pay you back whatever is left of the money, and I won't hide any of it."

While the two were talking, Lingbao ran back into the house.

"Daddy, Daddy," she said to Daddy who was putting on his rag shoes with his head bowed, "Second Brother is here, Daddy, is Second Brother a big villain?"

"Ah?" Jiang Qingshan was stunned for a moment, thinking that it was normal for Lingbao to ask such a question, since the day she was brought home, Er Huazi hadn't done anything good.

Touching Lingbao's little head, he said, "Your second brother is not bad."

"But he made my mother unhappy before, and even came to the house with bad aunts to grab meat. Lingbao doesn't like him, and Lingbao doesn't like anyone who makes my mother angry."

"Your second brother, what are you talking about?" Jiang Qingshan thought about it seriously, "It's just that when he grows up, he thinks his wife is more important, and he listens to his wife for everything, for fear that her wife will be unhappy, Lingbao you understand?"

The little milk boy shook his head, "I don't understand, how can a daughter-in-law be more important than a mother? After Lingbao marries a daughter-in-law, she will also love her mother the most."

Her father was so teased by her that he almost lost sight of his eyes, "Hahahaha, little fool, you are a girl, you can't marry a wife..."

"Ah?" Lingbao blinked twice blankly, "Why? Brothers can marry wives, why can't Lingbao?"

Jiang Qingshan didn't know how to explain it, "In short, only boys can marry wives, but girls cannot."

The little girl seemed to understand but half understood, "Anyway, Lingbao thinks that a daughter-in-law is not as important as a mother."

"Actually, when a man marries a daughter-in-law, he should be more partial to his daughter-in-law. Even your second sister-in-law is too big, and I can't tell you about my father. In short, the world of adults is very complicated. When Lingbao grows up, he will understand." .”

Xiao Lingbao frowned, trying to understand his father's words, "So, Second Brother, isn't he a big villain?"

"Well, although your brothers have their own shortcomings, they are not bad people."

"Lingbao understands."

Nodding his head, Lingbao thought, since the second elder brother is not a big villain, does Lingbao want to help him?

There was black air between his brows. If he didn't help him, something bad would happen to him today.

Outside, Er Huazi unbuttoned the two buttons on the old padded jacket, carefully put the money into the inner pocket of the clothes, "Mother, then I'm leaving?"

"Let's go quickly," Shen Su'e urged, "don't miss the carriage."

Erhuazi looked at the kitchen and swallowed, "Mother, can you give me some noodle soup? I don't want noodles, I just want some soup to warm my body."

After all, it was her own son. Although she had complained a lot to him in recent years, she still couldn't bear to see him shrinking his neck and trembling.

"Come in and eat," Shen Su'e walked back to the kitchen and said while taking a bowl of noodles, "There is a stove inside, it will be warmer for you to sit here and eat."

In addition to the noodle soup, she also picked up some chopstick noodles for him.

"Thank you, mother." Er Huazi took the bowl, blew on the hot noodles, took a sip of the soup first, then picked up the noodles, and blew on the noodles twice.

Although only salt and alkali are added to the noodles, they are very strong and delicious. The salty fragrance is filled with a hint of sweetness from the flour itself, and the taste is indescribably delicious.

Erhuazi squinted his eyes, thinking that this was the best noodle he had ever eaten. The noodles he ate at the noodle stall in the past were incomparable to this bowl of noodles.

So greedy, he took a mouthful of noodles, and immediately picked up the noodles with chopsticks, and sent them to his mouth before he blew them, which made him gasp for cold air.

"Hiss... delicious, mother, the noodles you made are really delicious!"

Shen Su'e smiled and said: "Eat slowly, don't burn your tongue and get blisters."

"The noodles made of this Fuqiang powder are different, smooth and springy." Er Huazi finished the noodles in one go and drank up the soup.

After closing his eyes and savoring the taste of noodles for a while, he put the bowls and chopsticks on the stove and said, "Mom, I'm leaving! Don't worry, I promise to finish the task today and buy the flour for you."

"go quickly……"

Just as Shen Su'e waved her hand, a sweet and glutinous voice sounded outside, "Mother, Lingbao wants to go with the second elder brother."

For a moment, both people in the room looked in her direction, "Huh?"

Er Huazi was stunned for less than two seconds, rolled his eyes, laughed, and bent over to the little milk baby and asked, "Does Lingbao want to play with the second brother?"

"Yeah!" The little guy nodded, "Go play~"

Her mother hurried forward, "Lingbao, your second brother is not going to play, but to go shopping in the town, you can't go, he has no time to take care of you."

"Lingbao doesn't need anyone to take care of it, mother, don't worry, I will take care of myself!"

Erhuazi likes the little doll Lingbao very much. Firstly, she thinks she is aura and cute, and secondly, she thinks she may be a bit lucky. Shall I take her for a walk?"

"This..." Shen Su'e hesitated, "Don't lose me."

"Am I that unreliable? Lingbao is the heart of you and Dad. I must hold her firmly. How can I lose her?"

As he said this, he seemed to think of something, and he continued: "That's right! If there is some money left after buying the flour, I'll buy some maltose for Lingbao to eat, how about it? I remember that there is a maltose seller in the alley south of the supply and marketing agency." There are a lot of children gathered there, Lingbao must also like to eat."

Shen Su'e thought about the snow, the children in the village were all nestled in the house, and Lingbao had no company to play with, it was really boring.

After some deliberation, she agreed: "That's it, you take care of Lingbao, if she loses a hair, I won't forgive you."

Erhuazi promised again and again that his mother finally gave him the Lingbao.

Before sending Lingbao out, Shen Sue suddenly grabbed Lingbao, said "wait a while", then hurried home, found the last two sweet potatoes that had been hidden before, wrapped them in oiled paper, and stuffed them into Lingbao's clothes inside.

As soon as the noodles were cooked, she filled Lingbao with a large bowl of noodles that were almost full of noodles without soup, and watched her eat them up.

At this moment, she was afraid that she would be hungry on Lingbao Road, so after stuffing the sweet potatoes, she gave her another two dollars, "Buy more delicious food, don't starve yourself."

Er Huazi smiled and said, "Mother, you treat your daughter much better than your son."

Shen Su'e patted his head, "Did I treat you badly? When you were young, there was a cornbread left at home, and I didn't eat a single bite. I gave it to you guys to eat."

"I know, oops, I'm not joking."

"Okay, let's go to the car."

Erhuazi took Lingbao's little hand and walked all the way to the production team. He paid the coachman seven cents and got into the carriage. When everyone was full, the coachman waved his whip and shouted "Drive", and the carriage started to move forward.

The villagers sitting in a car looked at Lingbao curiously, and asked Erhuazi jokingly, "Don't you and your wife hate this child? Why did you take her to the town? Don't you think so?" Have you secretly lost someone?"
