Chapter 23

Because they hadn't eaten for a long time, Mrs. Zheng and her third son Chen Xiliang walked very slowly, and from time to time they sat on the side of the road to rest, and it was already evening when they arrived at Xu's house.

At this time, Xu's family had not yet slept, heard a knock on the door, and Xu Qiang came out to open the door.

"Mom, Xi Liang, why are you here, come in and come in." Xu Qiang was a little surprised when he saw people, and quickly beckoned people in, shouting as he walked: "Rong Rong, mother and Xiliang are here."

"Qiangzi" "Brother-in-law"

Mrs. Zheng and Chen Xiliang followed into the door, Chen Rongrong had already put on her shoes and came out, Grandma Xu and Ruyi also came out to take a look.

"In-laws, I'm disturbing you so late." Mrs. Zheng saw Grandma Xu and said.

"Don't disturb, don't disturb, come in and sit." Grandma Xu greeted, the Chen family is not a family that exchanges their daughter for a bride price, Grandma Xu is not a person who covets her daughter-in-law's dowry, although the two are a little far away, but the relationship is not bad.

Everyone entered the house, Grandma Xu hurriedly lit the oil lamp, there was no light just now, Chen Rongrong saw her own mother clearly after the lamp was lit.

When we met last time, although Mrs. Zheng was thin but still very spirited, this time she looked completely thin and thin, and in just a few months, she seemed to be many years old. Chen Xiliang on the side also did not have the spirit of a teenage boy.

Chen Rongrong's heart suddenly lifted, and asked worriedly: "Mom, is something happening at home, why did you come over so late, is it dad what's wrong with him?" Mrs

. Zheng hesitated for a moment or did not say that Old Man Chen was already lying on the bed and could not stand up, she felt that this time she could bring some food back from the mountain, the old man would eat it, there was no need to say it at this time, as if it was to gain sympathy and ask for food through the fact that the old man was sick.

"Your dad is fine, don't worry." Zheng Lao □□ comforted his daughter.

Xu Pingan brought over two bowls of water and placed them on Mrs. Zheng's table. Mrs. Zheng said busily: "Good boy, good child, this is peace, what a good child."

After

saying that, he took the bowl of "grunt" and drank a bowl of water, this afternoon was tired, thirsty and hungry, and now suddenly sat down, Mrs. Zheng's brain was a little dizzy, but she still forcibly cheered up.

"Mom, you haven't eaten at night, have you?" Chen Rongrong asked, everyone knows this answer, it will take a few hours to get to Xu's house, and he must not have eaten dinner.

Chen Rongrong asked while looking at Grandma Xu, Grandma Xu knew what she meant, so she said: "I definitely didn't eat it, Rong Rong, go and burn two sweet potatoes, there is nothing good at home, you can only eat sweet potatoes, don't dislike your in-laws." Of

course, Grandma Xu said this to be polite, not all the sweet potatoes eaten this year, and the Chen family can't even eat sweet potatoes now. Although the fact that there is food at home has to be hidden from outsiders, Chen Rongrong knows the situation at home, and it is too hurtful to have so much food stored at home but not give it to her mother, who has come all the way over.

Chen Rongrong knew her mother-in-law's personality and knew that she was not saying kind words, so she went to the stove to cook sweet potatoes. Mrs. Zheng took Chen Rongrong's hand and didn't let her go, and said in her mouth: "No need, no need, I have eaten on the road, no need to bother." Mrs
