Chapter 103

"Well, that's fine." Seeing that her grandma really didn't shed any tears, and she still had a smile on her face, Xiaobei was finally relieved.

Being interrupted by Xiaobei like this, old man Xu couldn't be sad anymore. After all, today is also a happy event. He looked at Xiaoxi and Xiaobei with a smile, "Oh, these two little guys look so fair, they look like It's from our old Xu's family!"

Xu Jinliang was helpless, their old Xu's parents were all big and three thick, with dark skin, the two boys in front of him didn't look like the Xu family, they must be like his brother-in-law.But it's not good for him to interrupt the old man's interest at this time, after all, he just found his sister, so he must be in a good mood.

"Dad, it's not good for us to stand at the door, let's talk about it after we go in." It was Xu Jintu who spoke. He knew that he had a second sister before, but didn't he say that he died in a flood?It never occurred to him that he became the godmother of his daughter by such a fate. Could it be that this is the power of blood and family affection.

"Yes, yes, go in and sit down quickly, Xu Liu, hurry up and see how your aunt's cooking is going? What time is it, don't starve my two great-grandchildren." Mr. Xu also had some Getting anxious, he quickly dragged Mother Li to the restaurant.

"Got it." Xu Liu hurried to the kitchen.At this time, the eldest daughter-in-law of the Xu family was still cooking in the kitchen, and the noise of cooking inside was loud, and she didn't know what was going on outside, so she didn't come out.

Mr. Xu pulled Mother Li, and Mother Li supported Mr. Xu, and the two sat on the sofa.

"Jinmei, tell me quickly, what is going on, they said that you and your mother were washed away by the water, and there was no possibility of surviving, I thought you were dead, otherwise I have How could I not look for you!" Mr. Xu was full of regret at this moment, if he had known that his daughter was still alive, he would have sent someone to look for her a long time ago, maybe they would not have missed these years.

When Li's mother mentioned this, she couldn't help being extremely sad, and she almost choked up: "At the beginning, I was washed away by the water with my mother. We were washed away along the river and almost drowned. Fortunately, Then I came across a tree, my mother hugged me and put me on the tree, and she hugged the tree and floated in the water."

"Later, the water got bigger and bigger, and the tree seemed to be about to break. My mother, she...she..." Mother Li almost broke down in tears when she said this, and the other people in the living room couldn't help their hearts, they You can also predict what will happen next.

Mr. Xu couldn't help but hold his daughter's hand tightly, wanting to comfort her and give her some support.

Xu Jinliang will be sitting next to Li's mother now, and he can't help but get red eyes when he heard about his biological mother, but he blinked back the tears that were about to come out of his eyes.He quickly took some paper to Mother Li and asked her to wipe away her tears.

"Mother, she let go of her hand because of me. The flood was so great that she submerged her directly..."

The flood that year was so great that almost all of the village where Xu's family lived was submerged. The flood raged for a long time without passing away. People over the fifth floor lost their lives in the flood, and many more people died. Wandered everywhere.

At that time, when Huaguo was still in the midst of frequent wars, Mr. Xu went back secretly and finally found Xu Jinliang, while Li's mother was rushed to another place. Although Li's mother also went back later, it was already there. Things have changed.

When Li's mother and Mr. Xu talked about the past, the eldest daughter-in-law of the Xu family finally came out. She just heard what Xu Liu went in and said, but she was the only one cooking in the kitchen. It was really inconvenient to come out, since the meeting was almost done, she naturally brought Xu Liu out.

"Dad, this is the second sister, right? She really looks like you!" The daughter-in-law of the Xu family naturally noticed the sad atmosphere in the venue, but she still walked over with a smile, just thinking it was a happy event.

"Yes, this is your second sister Xu Jinmei, this is your nephew Li Chengye, and these are his two children, Xiaoxi and Xiaobei." Seeing his eldest daughter-in-law came out, Mr. Xu quickly calmed down and introduced them.

"Oh, this is the nephew of the second aunt's family. He looks really good-looking, but the third son of my family is much better." The eldest daughter-in-law of the Xu family looked at Li Chengye with admiration on her face.

"Hello, aunt." Li Chengye could only quickly admit his relatives at this moment. Her mother had already remembered when the accident happened, so naturally she would not admit her wrongly, and the Xu family's status was much higher than theirs.

"Xiaoxi Xiaobei, quickly call your uncle and grandma."

"Uncle and grandma!" The two little guys were very obedient, and immediately called out, with smiles on their faces.

"Hey, baby, this is for you guys, take it." The eldest daughter-in-law of the Xu family smiled and took out two ten-yuan union cards from her pocket. touched it.

Xiaoxi and Xiaobei quickly looked at Mother Li.

Li's mother also found out that 20 yuan is not a small amount. She stood up quickly, took the money from the two children, and was about to stuff it back to her sister-in-law, "Sister-in-law, what are you doing? How can you give the child such money?" How much money? Hurry up and take it back."

"That's how much. We haven't seen this child since he was born until he was so old. It is said that there are more than this many red envelopes every year. You are still polite to us." Looks like he's going to be angry.

Xu Jinliang also agreed with his wife's words very much, and hurriedly said: "Yes, this money must be collected. This is the New Year's red envelope that my uncle gives every year. It should be. The main reason is that Chengye is already so big, otherwise his red envelope I will give it too."

Mr. Xu also nodded again and again, "Yes, yes, it should be accepted, and your great-grandfather will give each of you a big red envelope later."

"Yes, yes, yes, and my second uncle." Xu Jintu, who was sitting on the side, hastily started to take money from his pocket.

Although Li's mother felt that the money was too much and she didn't want to accept it, Mr. Xu and the others were very persistent, so they finally accepted it.

This time, Xiaoxi and Xiaobei became rich, not only Mr. Xu and the Xu family brothers gave red envelopes, but Xu Liu and Xu Kewu also gave red envelopes, they are also elders now.

The Xu family's dinner was very sumptuous, and they didn't need the two chickens that Mother Li had brought over. Mr. Xu was so happy that he didn't stop smiling during the whole meal.

"By the way, Jinmi, don't go back tonight, just sleep here. Aren't the two children going to be on summer vacation soon? Just play with me for a while, anyway, you have nothing to do at home."

As soon as the meal was over, Mr. Xu started to keep people. It was not easy for him to reunite his father and daughter, so he naturally wanted to keep Mother Li to live here.As for Li Chengye, forget it, they still need to live in the school.

Mother Li hesitated, "My family still feeds a lot of chickens, and our family didn't bring any clothes."

Mother Li's mood is very complicated. It is said that the relationship between father, daughter, brother and sister should be very deep.But they have been separated for more than 40 years, and everyone has their own families. From a few years old to over 40, she now has a son and grandson.Everyone has their own thoughts in their hearts, and the Xu family's status is so high now, although they seem to be easy to get along with now, but after a long time, there may be estrangement.

The most important point is that with so many people in the Xu family, resources are naturally limited. The appearance of Li Chengye might take up other people's resources. This is a very realistic thing.

Mr. Xu glared, "What? I, an old man, can't compare to those chickens of yours?"

How dare Mother Li respond to his words, she quickly shook her head, "How come?"

Xu Jinliang also owed his younger sister, so he wanted to make up for it when he finally found him, so he hurriedly said, "Okay, second sister, why don't you move back and live with your father for a few days? He's so old, it's not easy Father and daughter meet..."

After all, Xu Jinliang was in the army, so he had a rough heart. On the contrary, Xu Jintu was different. He has been in politics for more than ten years, and he has a relatively accurate grasp of people's hearts.

"Second sister, don't worry about your chickens. I'll drive you home to pick up your clothes later, and I'll take care of some things at home. Don't worry, there are only a few people in our family, let's talk about everyone They are all people who have suffered, there are not so many twists and turns, and you don't have to worry about anything bad."

The eldest daughter-in-law of the Xu family also quickly persuaded her, "Second sister, you can just stay here and stay with me. I'm the only woman in the house. Xu Liu has to go to school all day, so we can be companions."

As she spoke, she looked at Li Chengye again, and said with a smile: "It just so happens that your family Chengye is the number one in the college entrance examination, and you will come to live with us after the exam is over, and then help us teach science and martial arts. He also wants to take the economics exam at Capital University." Department. However, he has not had the opportunity to study in recent years, and his foundation is a little weak. There is only more than a month left, and I don’t know if there is hope.”

She had a sad look on her face, as if she was quite worried.Looking at Li Chengye with some expectation in her eyes, she felt that since Li Chengye could be called the top scorer in the college entrance examination and got nearly a perfect score in the exam, he naturally has his own unique ability, and maybe he can help her son.

Not mentioning the relationship between the two families, this was her plan before knowing Li Chengye's identity, but it was not easy to mention the relationship before, but now it is different, it is much easier to talk about the cousins. .

For a moment, everyone's eyes fell on Li Chengye. Li Chengye felt a little helpless, with a troubled look on his face, hesitatingly said: "Auntie, I'm so sorry, I'm going to be with me on the 25th." A teacher went south for an inspection, and this time I will be an assistant for almost two months."
