Reborn 1990: Running towards the life of a housewife
Chapter 433 Gossip
It wasn't until the 29th that Shen Xiaojun's family drove back.
Zhang Simin was the only one at home. She held Lin Yao for a while and made love to her. She also brought some snacks for the children and fried twists from her own home.
Lin Zhe put down his things and asked, "Where's Dad?"
Zhang Simin was very happy at first, but when she heard Lin Zhe asked Lin Chengcai, her face suddenly fell, "Don't mention him now, he went to be a good big brother in front of others again!"
Lin Zhe raised his eyebrows: "Are you going to take care of your second uncle?"
"Who else could he be?"
In the past two years, Zhang Simin had to talk about Lin Chengcai's fault almost every time on the phone.
"It's the Chinese New Year, and my son and daughter-in-law are all back, but no one is there? Do you need him to help? This is not called helping! Li Lihua's plague, calling you dad every day has become what your dad should do Damn! I really owe his family!"
There are also some things that Zhang Simin is embarrassed to say. When she thinks of the discussions of the old ladies in the village, her chest feels tight!
Lin Zhe frowned: "I'll call him back."
Lin Yao went to hold his father's hand, "Dad, I'll go with you."
After they left, Shen Xiaojun carried his luggage upstairs.
Zhang Simin followed up and entered the room. "The sheets on the bed have been changed in the past two days. I took out the quilt inside and dried it for two days in a row when the sun was strong."
Shen Xiaojun cleaned up and said, "Thank you for your hard work."
Zhang Simin waved her hand: "Why bother? It's easy."
Shen Xiaojun saw that she seemed to have something to say, "Mom, if you have anything to say, just tell me!"
If you really asked, she didn't say anything, "I have nothing to do, you take your time to clean up, I'll go see Xiaowei and the others."
Shen Xiaojun raised her eyebrows, she couldn't help it if she didn't say anything.
When Zhang Simin went downstairs, Lin Wei came over, "Mom, does grandma want to go to the capital?"
Shen Xiaojun stopped hanging his clothes and asked, "Why do you say that?"
Lin Wei rolled on the bed, "She just kept asking us about things in the capital, and asked if it was fun? Will it be cold after the Chinese New Year? ...Anyway, I think she meant this."
Shen Xiaojun closed the closet door. No wonder. He was hesitant to speak just now. He had something to say but didn't say it. He was probably too embarrassed to mention it directly and wanted them to take the initiative to invite her.
"Okay, I understand. Have you packed up? Go downstairs after packing."
Lin Wei sat up and said, "I'll go to the bathroom first."
Lin Zhe and his son were walking and chatting in the village. When they met someone, they would stand and chat for a few words. The two-three-minute walk turned into a 3-minute walk. Lin Yao got annoyed and simply broke away from him. Hands, go find grandpa yourself.
Along the way, he muttered, "You are so good at chatting, better than me."
When he arrived at Lin Laoer's house, he shouted: "Grandpa, grandpa! I'm back! Your eldest grandson is back!"
Without seeing him, he first heard his voice, "Hey!" Lin Chengcai came out of the house and walked out with a smile.
"Yao Yao is back! When did you arrive? Did your grandma give you our fried mahua?"
"Eat, eat, I just finished eating on the way! Grandpa, what are you doing here? Why don't you go home?"
"I'm helping your second grandfather take a bath! It's the Chinese New Year, so you have to welcome the new year cleanly." Lin Chengcai's hands were still wet, and he didn't dare to hug Lin Yao, so he just smiled.
Lin Yao walked around the yard with his eyes, "Is there no one at Grandpa Second's house? Where is his son? Aren't you going to give him a bath?"
Lin Chengcai: "... Well, they are busy with other things."
Lin Chengcai had only been out for a while when Li Lihua came out and shouted, "Brother, the water is getting cold."
Lin Chengcai turned around and said, "Hey! I'll come in right away."
Then he turned to Lin Yao and said, "Yao Yao, go back first. Grandpa will be back later." After that, he entered the house again.
At this time, someone happened to pass by the door and burst out laughing when he saw this scene.
"Yaoyao, don't wait, your grandpa is busy!"
Lin Yao recognized this person, "Grandma Jiang."
"Hey! Let's go back with Grandma Jiang first." Aunt Jiang went to hold Lin Yao's hand, but Lin Yao suddenly dodged away, "I'm leaving first, Grandma Jiang, please slow down."
Lin Yao trotted all the way home. Halfway there, Lin Zhe was still chatting with someone.
Lin Zhe saw him and asked, "Where is your grandfather?"
"I'm giving Grandpa Second a bath, and he said he'll be back later."
Lin Zhe didn't care anymore and simply sat in the courtyard chatting with others.
When Lin Yao returned home, Zhang Simin also asked him and got the same answer.
Zhang Simin scolded Lin Laoer and his family again, including Lin Chengcai.
When Lin Chengcai came back, Zhang Simin even quarreled with him.
"Xiaojun, go and pull two garlic sprouts, and we'll fry bacon for lunch." Zhang Simin took a piece of bacon that was newly smoked this year from the beam and washed it.
The land where garlic seedlings are planted at home is just outside the yard. Shen Xiaojun walked out of the yard and bent down to pull out the garlic seedlings.
When Aunt Jiang saw her coming out, she came over, exchanged a few words with each other first, and then got down to the topic, "...it's been spread in the village that Li Lihua is afraid that she has a crush on your father-in-law, and they are afraid that something is going on. !”
Shen Xiaojun was shocked. What is this?
She would just come out and pull out a garlic seedling, and she would hear all the gossip!
"...You are young and don't know that your father-in-law was a well-known and good-looking young man back then. Many people wanted to marry him!"
Shen Xiaojun didn't believe this. How could she remember that her father-in-law's family was too poor, and there was a widowed mother and young brother at home, so he couldn't get a wife?
But he looks good, so she believes it.
"Now that his son is promising and rich, doesn't he attract people's attention? As children, you should be more careful and don't let anyone take advantage of you."
As she spoke, she pouted in the direction of Lin Lao'er's house, "I ask you to go to your father-in-law's house every day, and the threshold is almost gone. Why do you have to go there every day? She must have bad intentions! I just passed by, and she told your father-in-law about water. It's getting cold, listen, it won't make people think too much about this! Your mother-in-law is feeling miserable!"
Shen Xiaojun felt as if there was a thorn stuck in his throat, "You must be overthinking it, my father-in-law is not such a person."
After saying that, he took the plucked garlic seedlings and entered the yard.
Shen Xiaojun immediately understood why Zhang Simin, who had always been reluctant to leave home, suddenly wanted to go to the capital.
She must have listened to these gossips too.
When Lin Zhe came back, Shen Xiaojun told him about the matter.
Lin Zhe frowned tightly, "What a mess!"
"There's no smoke without fire. To put it bluntly, dad has to go too often and help in a certain way. Of course, I definitely don't believe what dad has in mind. It's just that this matter is unpleasant to talk about, and mom feels uncomfortable listening to the gossip."
Lin Zhe was also angry: "I know, I will find time to chat with him in the afternoon."
Zhang Simin was the only one at home. She held Lin Yao for a while and made love to her. She also brought some snacks for the children and fried twists from her own home.
Lin Zhe put down his things and asked, "Where's Dad?"
