Chapter 12

There is no need to tell old man Qin, Second Grandpa Qin directly asked Song Xiu to take the child back to make arrangements and live in his house.The house in the east wing is tidied up enough.Anyway, he has to treat Mrs. Songxiu every day, and living together saves the trouble of coming and going.

Before leaving, Qin Jiao leaned over, held Song Xiu's sister-in-law's face and "mua" heavily.

"Goodbye, Auntie, I'm going home first, and I'll bring you something delicious tomorrow."

The Qin family's actions were very fast. Song Xiu went back and said so, and several sister-in-laws in the village came to help that day, and cleaned the second grandpa Qin's house in one night.

Song Xiu was also worried that her mother-in-law would be angry, but her mother-in-law was very angry, but she was angry that Song Xiu's elder brother treated her sister as an outsider.

"If you hadn't come looking for this, he would never have said it for the rest of his life? Even if they didn't approve of your marriage with Xiaofeng back then, would it still be connected if the bones were broken? Don't say anything about such a big event, and don't find someone Came here to know?"

The old lady Qin got angry when she said that: "When your elder brother comes, I want to ask clearly, how can we Xiaofeng not get into his eyes."

"Old woman!" Old man Qin knocked the long cigarette stick on the sole of his shoe, and frowned, "I told you about this, but you can't help. Brother Xiu'er always has his difficulties, you now Going to the door to force people to leave?"

The old lady Qin muttered twice, picked up Jiaojiao and went to Grandpa Qin's house.

"Xiu'er, don't worry, your mother has a sharp mouth, and she still thinks of you in her heart. When your brother and sister-in-law come, you can take care of them during the day. There are not many things at home. Your sister-in-law and your sister can take care of you. Row."

Song Xiu nodded silently with tears in his eyes.

On the third day, Second Grandpa Qin brought Song Qi and his wife home.

The road was a bit bumpy. Grandpa Qin gave her sister-in-law two injections and made her sleep until Qinjiagou.

After getting out of the car, several young men from the village greeted her, and immediately carried Mrs. Song Xiu into the house.

Without the cover of the quilt, her skinny body with only a few bones left is more conspicuous.Song Xiu looked at it, covered her mouth and shed tears frantically.

"Thank you second uncle and aunt. These are the board and lodging expenses for me and Xiu'er's sister-in-law. It's not much, it's just a meaning. I usually have to go to work, so I can only come back to see her every weekend, and I have to bother the elders."

With that said, Song Qi earnestly bowed and thanked Qin Er and his grandfather.

Grandpa Qin Er didn't refuse, and signaled the old woman to put the money away.

He chatted with Song Qi for two days, and he had a very thorough understanding of this person's temperament.This man has the nobility of a literati. Although life has given him heavy pressure, it has not broken his backbone.

The money is really not much, after all, he has to pay for his wife's medical expenses and other expenses, and the rest is basically here.

Song Qi couldn't stay longer, he asked his unit for three days off, and later he had to pay back the lessons that other teachers helped him with.In addition, he doesn't have to spend time taking care of his wife every day, so the school will increase his workload as appropriate.His workload was not full before, and his salary was only three-quarters of that of others.

He stayed here for one night, and he planned to go down the mountain early the next morning.Before leaving, he and Song Xiu took a walk outside the village. The two siblings hadn't seen each other for many years, and now they finally had a chance to sit down and have a good chat.

"Xiu'er, I'm sorry. My brother owed you this apology for many years, and I can finally say it to you personally."

"Brother, it's okay, I know you love me."

Seeing her brother in the past few days, Song Xiu cried more than in previous years.

"Your younger brothers and sisters have their own lives now, and we don't have much contact with each other. We only know that the younger sister has never been married and is continuing to study for a doctorate in school. The older brother is married, and his wife is a nurse. Wuzhou is pretty good. The eldest brother was married, and she is the only child in the family of the younger siblings, so the couple will probably live in Wuzhou to take care of their parents. If you have a chance in the future, just go and see him."

Song Xiu nodded and wiped away tears.

"When Xiaofeng comes back, we will go as a family when we find a chance in the future, bringing my sister-in-law with me."

Song Qi was stunned for a long time, then nodded: "Yes, together."

"By the way, brother, did you call the police on the situation of my eldest nephew?"

"I did, but..." Song Qi shook his head, smiling bitterly, "It's been so many years, and I don't know if he's doing well. I'm always wondering if there are disabled beggars on the side of the road. When I think of him, my heart hurts like a knife."

Song Xiu opened her mouth to say something, but closed her eyes and said nothing. She made up her mind to wait for her brother to leave, and went up the mountain tomorrow to beg the mountain god grandma.

"Mom, mom, uncle!"

The two of them were feeling sad when they saw the little girl running out of the village, holding something in her hand.

"Jiao Jiao, what's the matter?" Song Qi knelt down and hugged Qin Jiao, who rushed towards him like a small cannonball, "Slow down, don't fall down."

"Uncle, look, I caught it."

A small emerald-like bird was held by Qin Jiao, and the whole bird was filled with a feeling of lovelessness.

"There are embroidered eyes on this mountain?"

Song Qi's father-in-law used to like to raise birds, embroidered eyes, thrushes, and parrots were all his favorites, and Song Qi also got to know many bird species.

"Uncle, here it is for you."

Qin Jiao was so proud that she stuffed the bird into Song Qi's hand, then took her mother's hand, and stuffed three peanuts into it.

After it was over, he broke away from Song Qi's embrace, and ran away to play again.

"The little guy has a good temper."

Speaking of her daughter, Song Xiu was much happier.

"In the past, Jiaojiao was in poor health and was sick all the time. She had a serious illness some time ago, but after recovering from the illness, she became much healthier and her temperament became more cheerful. Don't worry, brother, I will take Xiaojiao to accompany my sister-in-law every day Yes. With so many people talking to her, it always gets better."

Song Qi took a deep breath of the fresh mountain air, and felt that a lot of stagnant air accumulated in his heart and lungs had been exhaled.

"Yeah, it will get better."

"Brother, if you don't mind, can you find time to tell me in detail about the circumstances of my eldest nephew's loss that year. I will write to Xiaofeng and ask him to help find it? It would be better if there are photos or something."

Song Qi hesitated for a while, and finally agreed.It's not that he doesn't miss his son, it's just that he doesn't want his sister's family to be dragged into the tragedy of his own family.He is not a person who doesn't understand everything. Finding a child who has been lost for many years in a sea of ​​people is as difficult as finding a needle in a haystack.Money and everything are trivial matters, and energy and mental effort are the most likely to drag people down.

After sending off the elder brother, Song Xiu would take her daughter to Qin Erye's house to take care of the elder sister-in-law after finishing the family affairs every day.

Her sister-in-law seems indifferent to the changes in the outside world, even if she lives in a different place, it doesn't matter, she eats what is given, and starves if she doesn't.For so many days, no one has heard a word from her.

That day Song Xiu finished her work and went to her sister-in-law with her basket.

"Sister-in-law, I'm going to go up the mountain to pay homage to the mountain god's grandma. I may not be able to come back at noon. Later, my sister-in-law will come back to feed you, and I will bring you wild fruits from the mountain to eat later."

She gave instructions in a rambling manner, regardless of whether the other party responded or not.After helping with personal hygiene, Song Xiu picked up the basket on the table and went out.

When I walked to the gate, I saw my little daughter sitting on the threshold waiting for her.

"What's the matter, Jiaojiao? Aren't you going to play with Xue'er and the others?"

"No, Mom, I'm going up the mountain too."

Today, when my aunt said that my mother was going to worship the grandma of the mountain god, Qin Jiao immediately became interested. She still remembered that when she went to the grandma of the mountain god last time, she found a lot of carrots, and then her mother bought her beautiful hair ropes, new clothes and shoes .This time, she plans to go up the mountain to pull some big radishes, and then pay the tuition fees for her brothers!

You know how to play before you go to study, hum!
