Dressed up as a Real Mom - Chapter 26
Wei Jianwei left before dawn and did not disturb the two sleeping people in the room.
He was washing in the courtyard and found that there was a little light in the kitchen. When he walked in, he found that Wang Chunhua was sitting under the stove in a trance. The fire in the stove was about to go out, and the orange-red light shone on her face.
“mom.”
Wang Chunhua came back to her senses, “Are you up? There is noodles in the pot, eat it before leaving.”
Wei Jianwei nodded, “Go back to your room and sleep for a while.”
“Eh eh, go now.”
To explain, I have already said it yesterday. Wang Chunhua got up at three or four o’clock to make bowl noodles for her son. She returned to the room at this time and couldn’t sleep anymore, but she was afraid of staying and watched him leave for a while. Wipe away the tears and let the child miss it.
She wiped her eyes when she walked outside the kitchen.
When He Xiaoyun woke up, the room was quiet and only Wei Yuanhang made a small snoring sound. She turned her head and looked at the floor. Wei Jianwei’s bed had been put away, and he could not see any of his personal belongings. This person has never come back.
The child didn’t know that his father had left long ago. After playing with himself for a long time in the morning, he remembered to ask his mother, “Where is Dad?”
“Dad has returned to the army, we said yesterday.”
“But…” Wei Yuanhang narrowed his mouth. “He didn’t tell me today.”
He Xiaoyun touched his head and said, “Dad left early in the morning. Seeing that you were sleeping too soundly, I couldn’t bear to call you.”
“When will father come back?”
“Soon, he will come back when the plum tree in my aunt’s house grows plums again.”
After coaxing for a while, the child was still a little unhappy, and He Xiaoyun had to let him rest in her arms.
After lunch, Wei Yuanhang went to play again. Not long after, he ran to He Xiaoyun holding a wooden box, “Mom, mom, how come the bug has become like this?”
The wooden box was previously used to hold the larvae of Pieris rapae. Ten days ago, the worms turned into pupas. He Xiaoyun asked him to put them in the side utility room and watch them later.
It’s just that there have been a lot of things recently, and they have forgotten them. When the child thinks about it again, the insect has turned into a cabbage butterfly and flew away, leaving only a few gray pupa shells.
After Wei Yuanhang listened, his eyes filled with tears, his eyes closed, his mouth opened, and big tears rolled down, “Daddy is gone, Hudi is gone, wow-“
Cried too violently, and shocked several other people in the family. Wang Chunhua hurried out, “What’s the matter? Did you fall?”
He Xiaoyun helplessly explained: “Those vegetable insects turned into butterflies and flew away.”
Wang Chunhua breathed a sigh of relief. Seeing the little grandson crying with tears and snot, he was funny and distressed, “It’s okay, it’s okay, grandma will catch you a few more bugs.”
“A lot, a lot.” The child made a nasal bubble.
“Well, many, many.” His troubles made Wang Chunhua’s sadness dissipate a lot.
When the lotus was blooming in full bloom, Li Yuegui told He Xiaoyun that her uncle’s cousin had decided to get married at the end of the year.
At that time, He Xiaoyun was helping her mother weeding the vegetable garden. Hearing the words, he asked: “At first, I said let my cousin contact people first. Have you seen it already?”
“See you, your cousin didn’t say yes, and he didn’t say bad. He is no longer young this year. Your aunt simply made a decision. The girl is good in everything except for the higher gifts at home. She is afraid of being caught by others. Be the first.”
He Xiaoyun nodded. Although it is not like in the old days when marriage and marriage are all decided by parents, there is still some distance from free love, especially in rural areas like this, where young men and women are usually accompanied by an introducer. It’s not a deal.
“By the way, your sister-in-law’s stomach has been around for several months, right? When will you be born?”
“Should it be September?” He Xiaoyun thought for a while, nodded to confirm, “It is September.”
Li Yuegui swept the pulled out grass outside the courtyard and said, “September is good. It is neither cold nor hot during confinement, and there is no need to worry about the child getting cold. Aunt Wang said that when she saw your sister-in-law on the road two days ago, she had a little stomach. Bian, 80% is a girl.”
He Xiaoyun said helplessly: “That’s all nonsense. She is not clairvoyant. She can see boys and girls through her belly?”
“The old people have experience and they are very accurate. When I was pregnant with you, she said that I had a sharp belly and I must bring a hand. Who would have thought that I would be a girl again, which made me happy for nothing.”
“Then I was reborn in your stomach and made the wrong shot?” He Xiaoyun pretended to be angry.
Li Yuegui smiled, and said: “I have raised them to such a large size. What else can I do if I make a mistake? I’ll just talk about it.”
After pulling the grass, He Xiaoyun went to the water tank to wash her hands and poured some water on her face. Even though she was wearing a hat, her face was still red with heat.
Li Yuegui poured her a bowl of tea and asked, “Jianwei has been away for half a month, right?”
He Xiaoyun was pouring tea, no time to speak, she just nodded.
“Xiao Hang said you miss him?”
“I talked a lot in the few days I left. I read it several times a day. Now I don’t read it much.” He Xiaoyun put the tea bowl on the table, sat down and picked up the fan.
Li Yuegui said: “The kid forgets about sex. When Jianwei comes back next year, he will have to live for a while.”
She sighed again as she said, “It’s no way to separate you from Jianwei like this. When will you be the head?”
He Xiaoyun looked at a fly on the ground and said nothing. The Wei family wanted her to join the army, she hadn’t mentioned it to Li Yuegui, after all, it didn’t happen for the time being. Although her mother is now worried that her daughter and son-in-law can’t be in the same place, she may be more reluctant to know that her daughter is really going to the army.
She sat for a while before going back. Before going out, Wei Yuanhang followed his grandmother. Now he is playing with Yanyan at Aunt Zhang’s house. He Xiaoyun didn’t call him either, but said hello to Feng Qiuyue who was sitting at the entrance of the hall.
“I’m back? Xiao Hang is next door with mom.” Feng Qiuyue said.
“I heard the sound, let him play, so I don’t have to come back and quarrel us.” He Xiaoyun picked up a baby shoe she had just made. It was small, not as big as a palm, not exquisite, but very cute, “Sister-in-law. The craftsmanship is so good, I can sell it.”
Feng Qiuyue smiled and said, “If you don’t want money, no one wants it. If you really like it, I will make another one in the future. I will make it for you.”
As he was talking, someone outside the door suddenly shouted: “Is Wei Zhenxing here? There is a letter from you!”
He Xiaoyun and Feng Qiuyue turned their heads and saw a postman carrying a military-green messenger bag, standing at the door sweating.
“We are his daughter-in-law, comrade, come in for a cup of tea.” Feng Qiuyue hurriedly stood up and said.
The postman rummaged in his bag again and said, “Is there any more He Xiaoyun? There is also her letter.”
He Xiaoyun was pouring tea, and she subconsciously said: “I am He Xiaoyun.”
Two letters were placed on the table, and the postman drank tea and hurried away, and had to rush to the next house.
Without looking at the sender, Feng Qiuyue smiled: “It must be from Jianwei.”
“Comrade Postman delivered the letter?” Wang Chunhua led Wei Yuanhang in from the door, probably hearing a voice next door.
Aunt Zhang also came to watch the excitement, “Is it Jianwei’s letter?”
“Mom! Mom, mom…” Wei Yuanhang ran over, crooked with He Xiaoyun.
He Xiaoyun rubbed his head.
“I just told Xiaoyun that it was definitely sent by Jianwei, and I wrote two letters, one to the family and the other to Xiaoyun. I don’t know what to whisper.” Feng Qiuyue joked.
Aunt Zhang also said jokingly: “Let me just say, Jianwei used to send a letter only one or two months ago. When did it pass so diligently? This time it’s only half a month, right?”
“Counting seventeen days today.” Wang Chunhua said.
“Maybe he wrote to Xiaoyun as soon as he arrived in the army. After all, it is a young couple. It’s like mixing oil in a honeypot.”
Seeing that He Xiaoyun was said to be uncomfortable, Wang Chunhua asked her to go back to the room to read the letter. There was one letter left, waiting for Wei Zhenxing to come back in the evening before tearing it down.
He Xiaoyun took Wei Yuanhang back to her house. The child walked around her back and forth, very curious, “Mom, is it a letter? What is a letter?”
She simply explained: “It’s what Dad wants to say to us, because we are too far away and we can’t hear it. He had to write it down and ask the postman to send it to us.”
The child tilted his head and said, “Then we should thank Uncle Postman.”
“Yes.” He Xiaoyun smiled and squeezed his face.
Looking at the thin envelope in her hand, it is undeniable that she has small expectations and excitement in her heart.
She held Wei Yuanhang in her arms, and then opened the envelope.
Wei Jianwei’s words are the same as others, with a little sharpness in the calmness, which is unforgettable.
“What did Dad say?” The paper was full of handwriting, and the little illiterate was dazzled, and he twisted and twisted restlessly on his mother’s lap.
“Don’t move.” He Xiaoyun held him down and started to look at it from the beginning.
Feng Qiuyue said that Wei Jianwei wrote a whisper, but there was nothing in fact. He roughly wrote about the scenery he saw on the road, the settlement after arrival, and asked how she and the child were doing so that they could be seen by outsiders.
It was only in the second half of the writing that the Lin Yuefei who came back to the house made a big announcement after returning to the army, saying that he had married a particularly beautiful and virtuous daughter-in-law, and he was hiding it from others. Now that group of people, Every day I asked him to see He Xiaoyun’s photos.
When He Xiaoyun saw this, she thought Wei Jianwei would ask her for a photo, but when someone changed the topic, she didn’t seem to have a photo of him when she thought of it, so she sent back one in the letter.
Is there a photo in the envelope? Why didn’t she find out just now?
He Xiaoyun shook the two letter papers to make sure that there were no intertwined pieces, and then picked up the envelope and poured it out, only to pour out a small one-inch photo.
It should be used for all kinds of documents. In the photo, Wei Jianwei is wearing a military uniform. The brim of the military hat is a little bit low. He has deep eyes and a fortitude. In the words of later girls, he is handsome enough to hand in. The soldier brother of the country.
“Wow, dad looks good!” Wei Yuanhang’s flattery was never absent.
He Xiaoyun honestly admits that she is really handsome, but this is not the point. The point is that she has never seen such a cheeky operation. Look at what is written in the letter at the end and let her put the photo under the pillow!
Why didn’t he go to heaven.
