Chapter 188 Jiang Family
"Sister, I...I'm sorry."
Facing such a gentle sister who seemed to be able to tolerate all of him, Jiang Xiaotong was deeply touched.
"Although the Jiang family is not related to you by blood, they treat you as if they were one of their own. Of course I can understand your reluctance to leave your sister."
"Whether you choose to stay or come back to Shonan with me , you are my dearest person and will never change."
After gently rubbing his head, Suning took his hand and continued walking back, seeing that he was even more embarrassed because of his words. I couldn't help but smile.
After thinking about his age at this time, I still gave him a few clear choices.
"If you stay, if you miss your sister, you can write to me or call me, or even go to Shonan to stay for a month or two."
"If you go with my sister and you don't worry, Jiang Home, before I leave, I will make arrangements to ensure that they have enough food and clothing in the future."
"Of course there is a way to get the best of both worlds, that is, take them with you and let's go back together."
< br>
"Is this...is this okay?"
Hearing this, Jiang Xiaotong suddenly stopped and looked at his newly baked sister in disbelief. Ruifeng's eyes widened as if this was still possible. The look on his face.
Amused by his cute look, Suning couldn't help but stretch out two fingers and pinch his cheeks.
The skinny little face does not have much flesh. Due to long-term exposure to wind and sun, it is not smooth and tender as teenage skin should be, and can even be said to be rough.
The distressed pinching was changed to caressing. When he noticed the hot temperature under his hands due to embarrassment, he coughed and took it back naturally.
"Nothing is impossible, as long as they are willing to leave their hometown, the things grandpa left us can feed many of them with just a fraction of your share."
"The big brother on the team The captain is an elder of our clan, and there is no problem in getting the homestead."
"Then, I'll go back and ask my eldest brother and sister."
"Okay."
Sure enough, after having a clear direction, Jiang Xiaotong immediately dispelled the confusion and hesitation in his eyes, and his footsteps became much lighter.
...
When the two returned to the Jiang family's thatched house, it was just getting dark.
Jiang Xiaojun looked at the little brother who came back with joy in his face and eyes. He was relieved but couldn't help feeling sour at the same time.
"I'm back just in time. The food is ready and I'm about to call you."
Zhang Ze, who went to the beach again to try to catch the sea, has also come back and is making bold moves. Sitting in the courtyard, when I saw someone coming back, I immediately stood up and couldn't help but look at him and ask.
Seeing her nodding calmly, her lips lifted away some of the seriousness on her face.
The weather at night in the north is like going straight from autumn to winter.
On the heated kang, a small or medium-sized kang table was placed. The food on the table was the best food that Jiang Xiaojun and Jiang Xiaoman could bring out from home.
For them, this is the richness only available during the New Year and the holidays, but these two are still worried about whether their younger brother's sister will feel shabby and left behind.
Seemingly seeing the embarrassment on their faces and the worries in their hearts, Suning smiled even brighter and said gratefully, "Thank you, Brother Jiang and Sister Jiang for your hard work. This is the first time we have eaten like this." Lots of seafood.”
"Yeah, it's rare to find fresh river food in normal times, let alone so many seafood. Just smelling it is delicious!"
The talented Zhang Ze also followed closely to help ease the atmosphere, and only a few people in the room could see their faces. Slowly smile and relax visibly.
"Comrade Su, Comrade Zhang..."
"Call me Ningning, you are Xiaotongqian's elder brother and sister and so am I, so we should be a family. Brother Jiang Sister, don’t you mind having me as a younger sister?”
“Just call me Brother Zhang if you like.”
“How could that happen?”
Jiang Xiaojun and Jiang Xiaoman shook their heads in unison. Quite flattered.
To be honest, just after they left, both of them couldn't help but worry.
At first glance, the other party is a girl from a big city. If you leave out the relationship with the younger brother, I am afraid that you will look down on them and dislike them from the bottom of your heart.
I never thought, it was just their own opinion.
"Brother Jiang, what did you want to say just now?"
"That's what I want to say, Su Ke, Ning Ning and Brother Zhang, eating more of this sea cucumber is good for your health."
Looking at each other and smiling, Suning and Zhang Ze raised their chopsticks at the same time and unceremoniously picked up the sea cucumber in the hodgepodge he pointed at.
Following the movements of the two of them, Jiang Xiaojun couldn't help but widen the smile on his lips, losing his pretense of maturity and looking a bit more honest.
After finishing the meal, even Jiang Xiaoyuan, who had always been hostile to her, couldn't help but lower his guard, and even bit his ears with the younger brother next to him and said arrogantly, "You dear My sister seems to be quite nice.”
Not only is she more beautiful than Sister Xiuqin from the village, but she also has a good temper. She doesn’t look like the city girl they met when they were begging in the city.
He would never forget the look in his eyes from those self-righteous and superior people who looked at them like bugs in the sewer. So when he heard his friend say that his biggest wish was to marry a girl from the city as his mother-in-law, he scoffed.
Now, if you are like my little brother’s sister...
“My little brother is talking to you, what are you thinking about?”
"Ah, no, it's nothing!"
"It's nothing. Are you blushing like a monkey's butt?"
"Shut up!"
Looking at the laughter The two little guys looked a little more relaxed in everyone's eyes.
Because the Jiang family's house was not big and it was inconvenient to stay overnight, Suning and Zhang Ze rejected their good intentions and decided to return to the county guest house first.
After sending the two of them out of the village and back home, Jiang Xiaojun asked what he had been holding back.
"Brother, what are you thinking now? What are your plans?"
"Brother."
Jiang Xiaotong raised his head and glanced at his family members: Jiang Xiaoman didn't He clenched his fists nervously as he spoke, and Jiang Xiaoyuan also looked at him eagerly with eyes full of anxiety.
"Brother, I want to change my surname back to Su."
"It's okay, it's just a name. Besides, since you recognize your sister, you should change your surname."
Changing his name and surname means that he really wants to recognize his ancestors and recognize his family and his sister.
Since I learned that the Su family only has one child, my mother, and now there is only one sister left. Regardless of whether he comes back or not, Jiang Xiaotong wants to tell her in this way.
From then on, she was no longer alone.
"Brother, can you go back to Shonan with me?"
"Ah?"
"Go back to Shonan?"
We looked at each other for a while, Jiang Xiaojun turned to look at him and asked in confusion, "Brother, why do you think so?"
"I don't want to be separated from you, and I don't want to see my sister alone."
" A person? ”
My mother is gone, so is my father? Are there no elders left in the family?
“Yeah.”
That scumbag is better off than not, and he might as well be dead!
Jiang Xiaotong nodded solemnly without blinking, without any hesitation, "It's all gone."
"This..."
No matter how miserable they are, at least they still have something to lose. Each other, but Suning...who would have thought that someone with such a warm smile would be lonely all the time.
A little sad and a little distressed, Jiang Xiaojun sighed and patted his immature shoulder, making a difficult decision.
"Brother, if you want to go back with her, just go back. Don't be embarrassed. It's not like you can't come back because you miss us. My home is here and it won't run away!"
"Brother!" "Brother, what are you talking about!"
"Then you two tell me, do you really want to keep my little brother? Will he be happy in the future? Or are you both willing to go with him? Shonan? ”
A golden nest and a silver nest are not as good as your own straw nest.
Who would choose to leave home if not as a last resort?
My family and friends are all here, and my home is here. No matter how reluctant I am to leave, can I really leave and go to Shonan, a place I am unfamiliar with?
For a while, the room fell into silence. It was not until a long time ago that the sobs that could no longer be suppressed came.
......
Just after returning to the guest house, Zhang Ze sent the person to the room. After hesitating for a while, he finally spoke, "Ning Ning, look at Xiaotong's appearance..."
"I know. Brother Zhang, I'll go out tomorrow morning. Don't worry about coming back before breakfast."
"Where to go? I'll accompany you."
"No, I'll just go with you." Go to the supply and marketing cooperative as soon as possible to see if you can buy something. It's only two steps away from the guest house. You haven't had any rest in the past two days. You can't sleep well tonight."
No matter how good your health is, you can't do this. She had to resist, and besides, if she didn’t go out alone, how could she bring out the things in the space without anyone noticing?
Although Jiang Xiaojun and the others did not raise big copper coins for these rewards, she had to express it.
So Suning said it categorically and there was no room for negotiation.
Thinking about the fact that the supply and marketing cooperative and the guest house are across the street, they are indeed only a few steps away. Seeing this, Zhang Ze nodded and agreed.
