Dressed up as a Real Mom - Chapter 6

The next day, the whole family would wake up before dawn, and they would simply wash themselves, the people who went down to the floor, and those who went into the kitchen.

A pot of sweet potato porridge was boiled in the pot, and a few tortillas made in advance yesterday were steamed, and some pickles and soaked radishes were cut into the pot. A breakfast is ready. If it is the slack in the farm, the breakfast is usually only porridge, and the busy farmer will eat some dry food such as cakes and steamed buns to bear the hunger.

After the meal was finished, Feng Qiuyue sent him to the field. He Xiaoyun went to the river to wash his clothes. Wei Yuanhang was worried that Wei Yuanhang was at home alone, so he pulled him out of the bed and took him.

Children feel a lot. They rarely get up so early, yawning while walking, and when they see the water of the river, they become energetic.

He Xiaoyun found a shallow water and asked Wei Yuanhang to squat on the beach next to her to play with sand.

After a while, other women came to wash the clothes, saw He Xiaoyun, and said hello: “Why did you bring the child out so early today?”

“Everyone in the family has gone to the fields. Don’t worry he is at home alone.” He Xiaoyun explained with a smile.

“Yes,” the woman said, squatting down not far from her, and then going to tease Wei Yuanhang to speak: “Dad is back, is Xiao Hang happy or not?”

Wei Yuanhang pouted, digging in the sand, suddenly heard his name, raised his head and glanced at the other person, said he was happy, and then lowered his head to continue.

The woman smiled and said a few words of homely, and other people came one after another, and the river became lively.

After washing clothes, He Xiaoyun carried the tub in one hand, and took her reluctant son home with the other.

Wei Yuanhang couldn’t help but look back at the puddle he had dug, and said, “I will come tomorrow and come with my mother.”

“Let’s talk about it when you get up tomorrow, little slacker.” He Xiaoyun teased unceremoniously.

When she arrived at home, Feng Qiuyue had already returned, washed the dishes and chopsticks, and was sitting in the yard picking beans.

He Xiaoyun aired the clothes and was about to go out to beat a basket of hogweed, otherwise the pigs at home would run out of food. Taking Wei Yuanhang out of place again, and fearing Feng Qiuyue would not be able to watch him, she said to the child: “I’m going to mow pigweed, and the aunt is alone at home. Will you accompany her at home?”

“But…” The child was reluctant, “I want to go with my mother.”

“I want you to go with me too, but my aunt has a little brother and a little sister in her belly, and we are not at home. What if the bad guys come and no one protects them?” He Xiaoyun coaxed.

“Then, then I protect my little brother and sister?”

“Yes,” He Xiaoyun put a high hat on his head, “Hanghang is going to be an elder brother. He must be a great brother who will protect younger siblings, right?”

Wei Yuanhang suddenly felt that he had a heavy responsibility on his shoulders, so he nodded vigorously and said loudly, “I am a good brother!”

After coaxing the child, He Xiaoyun turned to Feng Qiuyue and changed her tone again, “If he is not obedient, don’t worry about his sister-in-law, don’t make yourself angry. When I come back and tell me, I will take care of him.”

Feng Qiuyue smiled and said, “Just go, Xiao Hang is obedient.”

He Xiaoyun went out carrying a big back basket and walked along the riverside and paddy fields where there were lush weeds all the way. The spring plowing had already begun, and she stood on the river bank and glanced at it. The fields were full of people bending over to work. I hope the weather will be smooth this year, and all the hard work will be rewarded.

Waiting to go home with a basket of pig grass on his back, it was time to prepare lunch.

She discussed with Feng Qiuyue what to do. One was to wash the vegetables and burn the fire, and the other was the chef to cook three dishes. They made three dishes, fried eggs with toon, fried cabbage with oil residue, soup with autumn breeze, and steamed a large pot of rice.

The lunch was heavy, she didn’t ask Feng Qiuyue to send it, so she brought it to the field by herself.

Yesterday Wang Chunhua had already said where they would plant the seedlings, and she quickly found a place. It was just the meal that everyone in the field came up to rest and eat under a tree on the edge of the field.

Before coming to the front, Wang Chunhua said to He Xiaoyun: “The team said in the morning that the land by the river was short of people, and Jianwei was arranged there. You have to go there again.”

He Xiaoyun responded, thinking that she hadn’t seen Wei Jianwei when she was washing clothes and mowing pigweed before. He came later when she wanted to come.

Fortunately, I also brought a few clean bowls, which were originally covered on top of the food to prevent dust from falling. This time I took it and evened out the vegetables and soup. When Wang Chunhua and the others finished eating, she carried them. Empty the bowl and the remaining meals, walked to the river.

Because of the extra trip, when she got to the river, everyone else was already eating, only Wei Jianwei was still in the field.

Seeing her passing from a distance, others shouted, “Jianwei, your daughter-in-law is here!”

Someone joked: “It’s a good thing, what did you make, it took such a long time?” Then he craned his neck and looked into He Xiaoyun’s basket.

She only smiled without answering.

Wei Jianwei came out of the field, washed his hands and feet by the river, splashed his face with water, and then walked over.

Because he didn’t want to listen to others talking and laughing, He Xiaoyun deliberately placed the basket somewhere some distance away from everyone. After he came, he didn’t move the position and sat down to eat.

He Xiaoyun originally stood, but she felt a bit abrupt after standing for a while. She wanted to go a little bit further, but she was afraid of being teased by the people nearby. She mushroomed for a long time, and finally sat down on a rock not far away from him.

Although it was only April, she felt very hot when she was basked in the sun all the way. Now the breeze blows, she feels cool and comfortable. She only dried it for a while. People who spent the whole day in the field must have been more panicked. Thinking about it this way, she couldn’t help but look at Wei Jianwei.

He was slurping rice, not knowing whether it was water or sweat on his face, he kept rolling down, his neck and chest were also dripping wet, his clothes clinging to his chest, his strong muscles heaving up and down with his breathing.

He Xiaoyun suddenly became a little uncomfortable, as if she had eaten human tofu, she quickly moved her eyes away, and this movement happened to meet Wei Jianwei’s sight. She felt guilty, thinking that she had been peeking at him. She was immediately embarrassed, but strong. Hold on, bluffing: “What are you looking at?”

Wei Jianwei lowered his eyelids and continued to cook without a word. That demeanor seems to be speechless with contempt that is too lazy to care about you.

He Xiaoyun was angry.

When Wei Jianwei had finished eating, she packed up the dishes and chopsticks, and walked home in a stubborn footstep.

The men at the edge of the field ate and drank enough, sat and rested for a while, chatting and bragging by the way, chatting and chatting about Wei Jianwei.

“Jianwei, what did you just say to your wife? Look to make her angry.”

“Yes, I’m not afraid that I won’t be able to enter the room at night.”

“I’m afraid it’s a ‘kneeling on the head of the bed’ if I go in!”

The others laughed suddenly.

When He Xiaoyun came home, she found that there were more people at home. Wei Jianhua, Wei Jianhua’s third and Wei Jianwei’s younger brother, returned from school after school on weekends.

Wei Jianhua is 19 years old this year. Because he studied late, he was naughty and left the grade when he was a child. He is only now in his second year of high school.

Now it’s the “Five Two Two” school system. You only need to study for two years in high school and then participate in labor. If you want to go to university, you need to be recommended by your unit or production team. Workers, peasants and soldiers with more than two years of practical experience will have the opportunity to be recommended.

However, it is now 1975, and He Xiaoyun remembers that the country resumed the college entrance examination at the end of 1977.

When she was in high school in her last life, the teacher once showed them a movie about resuming the college entrance examination. She remembered the fanatical appearance of the college entrance examination in the film. It was not only an exam, it was more like they were fighting for their destiny and faith.

At that time, she said to herself in her heart that she wanted to study, she wanted to go to university, to escape from the closed and backward village, and to get rid of her destiny, which almost became her obsession.

Later, while wandering in a big city, she also wandered outside the beautiful university gate several times, but unfortunately she didn’t have the chance to enter the university class until she died of cancer.

Seeing Wei Jianhua now, He Xiaoyun felt her heart throbbing, and a thought appeared in her mind: God asked her to live again, is it giving her a chance? An opportunity to re-take the Gaokao exam, and an opportunity to walk into the university campus dignifiedly?

Being married and having children, these are not hindrances. She remembers that when the college entrance examination was resumed in the first year, the country specially relaxed the age limit in order to take care of the older educated youth. Therefore, at that time, it was common for husbands and wives to go to the same examination room and brothers to fight together. .

And she still has two years to prepare, enough to make another fight for the college entrance examination!

As soon as this thought appeared, she couldn’t restrain it anymore. She took a few deep breaths before she managed to calm her heartbeat.

After I came here, I encountered all the unsatisfactory things, the backward environment, the lack of material, the embarrassing situation, and the troubles of being forced to be “married and childbirth.” Now all have disappeared. He Xiaoyun feels that she has never been so grateful, so happy. At this moment, she truly admitted that this adventure was a new life for her.

When I felt better, everything seemed pleasing to my eyes. In the evening, Wei Yuanhang said that he would go to Dad to play. He Xiaoyun hugged the little fat man and said, “What’s so funny about him. Mom will accompany you to hide and seek.”

The child talked about it several times before and wanted to play hide-and-seek. She felt too naive and didn’t want to cooperate, so she just let it go.

When Wei Yuanhang heard this, he was really overjoyed: “Okay, okay!”

He Xiaoyun put him down, turned her back, and said, “Hurry up and hide, and I will find you when you count to ten. One, two—”

“Mom, slow down!” Hearing her counting so fast, the child yelled in a hurry, walking around the room, trying to find a hidden place to hide.

He Xiaoyun slowed down and listened attentively. He heard Wei Yuanhang opening the closet door. Maybe there were too many clothes inside. He couldn’t hide in, so he could only give up, ran to the table and turned around, and finally walked to Wei Jianwei’s side. , Said in the low volume he thought: “Dad, I’m hiding with you, I can’t tell mom.”

Wei Jianwei had just made the bed. He had already been occupied before he lay down. He looked at the child’s round eyes and the urging of “Daddy, please lie in.” He had to sit in too, but he didn’t lie down and held hands. I took a book and looked through it.

He Xiaoyun heard clearly, smiled and counted to ten. Turning around, she saw the obvious little drum bag in Wei Jianwei’s quilt at a glance. In order not to undermine the child’s self-confidence, she decided not to pick him out on the spot, but to pretend to be He searched for a while, flipped through the closet, looked behind the door, and said while looking, “Where is Hanghang, why can’t I find him?”

After a full circle of cooperation, she was ready to lift Wei Jianwei’s quilt. Unexpectedly, the little kid couldn’t bear his temper. Suddenly she came out, her cheek flushed, and she shouted excitedly: “I’m here!”

He jumped straight on the ground, “It’s Mom’s turn, Mommy hides!”

He Xiaoyun was quite speechless, but the game she promised to play with him, no matter how naive she was, she had to finish it with a smile.

Wei Yuanhang had already closed his eyes and started counting. The numbers from one to ten had just been counted smoothly not long ago. Otherwise, he might have to ask his dad to help.

He Xiaoyun looked around in the room, and there are only those few hiding places. The bed is too dirty and the door behind the room is too conspicuous. She gently opened the closet door and pushed the clothes hanging inside to one side. Stand in, close to the cabinet wall, hang the clothes to the front to block, and gently close the cabinet door.

The cabinet was dark, with only a gleam of light coming through the door. She heard Wei Yuanhang finish counting and started looking for her. The first place was actually Wei Jianwei’s bed. She couldn’t help being angry and funny. This little fat man’s big eyes were 80%. Is it a decoration, she is such a big person, can she nest at his feet?

The pattering of footsteps approached, and she hurriedly held her breath.

When Wei Yuanhang came to the closet, both hands worked hard before opening the cabinet door.

He Xiaoyun thought he had been found, and was about to walk out, but the kid only glanced at it and saw that it was dark inside, and turned his head back and left without closing the door, leaving her staring inside.

Wei Yuanhang looked around the small room, did not let it go under the bed, but couldn’t find it. So he ran to Wei Jianwei and asked him in a low voice, “Dad, did you see where my mother is?”

Through the open closet door, He Xiaoyun could just see this scene. She saw Wei Jianwei put down the book and looked over to her.

He Xiaoyun stared at him vigorously.

But it was too late, and the three-year-old kid could understand the obvious hint, Wei Yuanhang ran over again, pulled the clothes covering her in front of her, giggled and said, “I found my mother!”

He Xiaoyun could only get out of the closet and ran to settle accounts with Wei Jianwei dissatisfied: “How can you cheat?”

What the two have said these days can be counted with one hand. If it weren’t for this person’s unkindness, she would not care about him.

Wei Jianwei looked up at her.

Although he was sitting and standing by himself, he didn’t know why. He Xiaoyun always felt that she was a bit shorter than others, so she stood up again and said, “You don’t follow the rules of the game like this. Do you know what it means to watch chess without talking? It’s the same with games.”

“I didn’t speak.” Wei Jianwei said.

“Then you look with your eyes, isn’t it still the same?” He Xiaoyun wouldn’t let him quibble.

Wei Jianwei still had a calm tone, “My eyes are not as good as you can see.”

“What do you mean?” He Xiaoyun asked subconsciously, and then suddenly reacted. Did the other party say that she was watching him at noon?

Her face turned red all of a sudden, and her aura was quite weak, and she replied indiscriminately: “What is it that I will look at? I, I didn’t look at me indiscriminately!”

She dared not settle accounts with him again, and hurriedly turned around to find Wei Yuanhang, hiding her embarrassment by coaxing him to sleep. I regretted more than once at noon, not keeping my eyes in check.

When the awkward energy passed, her mind calmed down, and the more she thought about it, the more she felt that something was wrong. This Wei Jianwei, she always thought he was quite taciturn, and looked calm and reliable, but she didn’t expect to feel stunned in her heart! Not honest at all!
