MTL - Single Mom in the Eighties-Chapter 8 to worry about

After the Qingming Festival, they began to grow vegetables one after another. Early-maturing leeks and green onions were eaten in May. Now tomatoes, eggplants, peppers, and cucumbers are all hanging on the racks. Tomatoes and cucumbers are all planted with early-maturing varieties. There is already something to eat.

The harvested vegetables are enough to supply the vegetables of Yan Ruxu's family and Aunt Hua's family for one summer and one autumn. If they can't finish eating, they are all dried or pickled by Aunt Hua, so that there are vegetables to eat in winter . Such a large vegetable garden allowed the two families to realize the freedom of vegetables all at once.

The vegetables in the yard also bring a lot of fun to the children.

Watching the seeds sprout from the ground, grow into small seedlings, and then blossom and bear fruit is novel and interesting to Kangkang. When vegetables bloom, they always attract many bees and butterflies flying on the flowers to collect honey. The big caterpillars on the leaves are also very attractive to him.

Every harvest season, the first thing Kangkang does when he comes back every day is to find cucumbers and tomatoes, and he never tires of it.

"Mom, can this little cucumber be eaten?"

Under the cover of the leaves, Kangkang found a cucumber that was as long as an adult's palm. It was yellow-green and sparsely covered with small thorns.

With his mother's permission, Kangkang immediately ran to the pool under the platform, stepped on a small bench, turned on the faucet, washed his hands carefully, and even made soap, and then couldn't wait to run under the cucumber stand, using his hands vigorously , struggling to twist off the little cucumber, and ran "thump-thump-thump", unscrewed the tap water and rinsed it, and then shook off the water on it, then held the cucumber and ran to the kitchen to find my mother.

Yan Ruxu lifted the lid of the aluminum pot, and a great smell came out.

This is the dinner that Aunt Hua cooked for the two of their mothers, covering the pot with the residual heat from the stove.

Aunt Hua's little grandson, Xiaoshitou, lived in a small town in Dongcheng District where a child disappeared on his way home from school, neither alive nor dead. Aunt Hua was worried about Xiao Shitou's safety, so she wanted to pick up and drop off the child every day, since the child's affairs were nothing small, so Yan Ruxu naturally did not refuse.

Aunt Hua didn't delay her work, so she came home early to cook the rice and put it in the pot.

Kangkang ran in, sniffed his nose vigorously, squinted his eyes intoxicated, forgot what he was doing here for a moment, stood on tiptoe and looked into the pot.

Yan Ruxu turned to look at him seriously, Kangkang immediately took a step back away from the stove, suddenly remembered the purpose of his coming here, and quickly held up a small cucumber and said to his mother, "Mom, half of each person."

Yan Ruxu first brought out a plate of pancakes, put them on the dining table in the next room, and then asked Kangkang who followed her like a little tail, "Then do you want to eat pancakes first, tomatoes mixed with sugar, eggs fried with leeks, or Want to eat cucumber first?"

Aunt Hua's pancakes are unique, golden, soft, fragrant, with distinct layers, both the mother and daughter love to eat.

Kangkang sucked in his saliva, and temporarily put the cucumber aside.

The couple had a beautiful dinner and shared a small cucumber.

To be honest, the standard of living of the couple is quite high in this day and age.

Yan Ruxu's salary is not low, and there are manuscript fees and bonuses that are not lower than the salary every month, plus the money and jewelry left by her mother before she left, she can be regarded as a rich woman. , I am very generous to myself.

Kangkang happily shook his two little fat legs and gnawed on cucumbers, humming a nursery rhyme, and picked up a piece of paper on the dining table, pretending to read to himself, he didn't know many words, But if he can't stand it, he will make it up.

Yan Ruxu had read this note when she first came in, it was left by Aunt Hua. It is said that Sister Huang from the Yan family came over and gave her 20 eggs, 1 catty of white rabbit toffee, 2 catties of cake, a few strips of bacon, and some apples. She put them all in the kitchen cabinet, and I picked some vegetables from the yard as a gift in return.

Yan Ruxu went to the kitchen, opened the cabinet, and saw a lot of things. Yan Ruxu took out the toffee, cake and apple list, avoided Kangkang, stepped on a chair and put them into a small basket hanging on the roof beam.

Looking at these things, Yan Ruxu was a little moved, and his father thought that he had sent most of the things he had been allocated to him. It was no wonder that his stepmother Wang Zhaodi had such a big opinion of him.

Yan Ruxu knew very well that his father had a deep sense of guilt towards him. For so many years, I have always wanted to make up for her. After the money was rejected, I would subsidize her in kind, which is very sincere. But, the estrangement between father and daughter is not created overnight. Once the estrangement is formed, it is like drawing a gap between the two. It is really not so easy to cross over.

Yan Ruxu feels that the current way of getting along is quite good. She buys something for the New Year and holidays, takes Kangkang to have a reunion dinner, and occasionally goes there on weekends. OK.

In the evening, Kangkang drank milk, washed his face, washed his feet, and brushed his teeth. After that, he lay on his little bed. Yan Ruxu accompanied him, holding a book of "Fairy Tales" in his hand, preparing for Kangkang to tell bedtime stories.

Yan Ruxu remembered what happened to Mrs. Liu during the day. She promised the child that she had made up her mind to tell him. Since she agreed, she must do it and not break her promise in front of the child.

So Yan Ruxu put down the book in his hand and said to Kangkang, "When I was at the entrance of the alley today, that grandma came out to splash water when she stared at her mother coming. She wanted to pour water on her body."

Kangkang stared wide-eyed, puzzled in his eyes, blinked several times, his expression became a little sad, and asked in a low voice: "Why is that grandma so bad, my mother is a good person, why did you spoil my mother? "

After thinking about it, Yan Ruxu decided to tell the child the truth. She can't educate her child like a little white rabbit, thinking that everyone is a good person and has a good heart for everyone. That sister-in-law Liu didn't take care of herself. She wondered if she would take her anger out on the younger Kangkang. She had to alert Kangkang and let him know that in this world, there are good people, but there are also bad people.

Yan Ruxu laughed, and said: "...She is probably jealous of her mother's beauty and her cute baby!"

Kangkang immediately became happy again. Although he didn't understand the meaning of the word jealousy, it didn't prevent him from understanding what his mother meant. He raised his arms and drew a big circle, echoing his mother's words proudly and proudly: "My mother She is the most beautiful mother in the universe, and Kangkang is the cutest baby in the universe!"

Yan Ruxu patted his little head lovingly.
