1983 Small Island, Starting From a Large Farmer

310. Chapter 309 Someone From My Mother’s Family

Li Duoyu returned home.

Aniang was basking in the sun in the courtyard with little Tutu in her arms. The winter sun was warm and felt very comfortable on her body.

Auntie is holding a bi (a very thin bamboo comb) in her hand and is carefully combing little Tutu's hair to check if there are any head lice.

This kind of grate is very thin and can comb the head lice out of the hair. People usually kill the lice directly with their nails.

Then check whether there are lice eggs on the hair. If there are any, use two nails to crush them.

If it is a lice egg that has not hatched, there will be an obvious "exploding" feeling when you squeeze it with your nails. If it is a lice egg that has hatched, it will be softer.

Seeing this heartwarming scene in front of him, Li Duoyu dug into his pocket out of habit and wanted to take a picture of this scene.

But after digging around for a while, I realized that there was no such thing as a mobile phone in this era.

Alas, it seems that I have to buy a film camera when I have time. After his parents left in his previous life, Li Duoyu found that there were no photos of the two elders at home, not even a family photo.

This also became a big regret for him.

Xiao Tutu, who had been suppressed by A Niang for a long time, was already impatient and his body kept twisting and turning.

After seeing Li Duoyu, he immediately felt aggrieved, stretched out his hands towards him, and looked like he was about to cry: "Baba~~"

Li Duoyu smiled and said:

"Tutu, dad is back."

Li Duoyu walked towards him with a smile, and said to his mother who was still looking for head lice with a grate: "There is no need to look for it. Our house is cleaned every now and then. There must be no lice on little Tutu's head."

Chen Huiying gave him a disgusted look: "You are the one who knows the least about our family. If there are lice, you must have brought them back."

"I take a shower every day, so I have to wash my hair two or three times a week, okay?"

"That's pretty much it."

"Mom, you can rest for a while. I'll go play with little Tutu."

Although she is only one year old, little Tutu can already understand some words. When she hears the word "play", her eyes open very wide.

He immediately struggled hard.

Seeing little Tutu struggling, Chen Huiying sighed, then handed her good grandson into Li Duoyu's hands and said:

"It's been very windy recently, so don't take him to the beach, and don't feed him random food, especially melon seeds and sugar. You have to be careful about what other people feed him, and you don't know if they know it."

"knew."

Li Duoyu picked up little Tutu and gently touched his hand with his beard.

Little Tutu let out a milky laugh and grabbed Li Duoyu's beard hard.

"hey-hey."

"I didn't expect it. Your father and I went to town today and shaved my beard clean. I can't pick it off anymore."

Little Tutu couldn't pull his beard, his mouth bulged, he was a little unhappy, and he scratched Li Duoyu's chin vigorously.

"You're a traitor."

"How dare you tickle your dad at such a young age."

Seeing Li Duoyu's expression of pain, Xiao Tutu let out a sweet laugh.

"How dare you laugh, see if I don't poke you."

Li Duoyu gently "retaliated" on Xiao Tutu with his beard scum.

Little Tutu was also afraid of his stubbly beard. She kept hiding here and there, pushing him with her hands, and even pinched Li Duoyu's nostrils with her fingers.

Seeing the father and son having a great time there, Chen Huiying gave her a slap in the face.

"You went to the town committee today. Is what happened in Shangqi Village true?"

"It's true." Li Duoyu nodded.

Chen Huiying frowned: "Why is the beginning of this year so bad? Fortunately, you are engaged in breeding and don't have to go to the sea all day."

"By the way, little Tutu will be one year old tomorrow. No matter how much you have to do, you still have to know it at home."

After Aniang reminded her, Li Duoyu realized that little Tutu would be one year old tomorrow.

He remembered that it was the thirteenth day of the first lunar month, but because he was busy with various things after the new year, Li Duoyu forgot about the day.

"Mom, are you not having any drinks this time?"

Chen Huiying nodded: "If Mazu doesn't agree, we won't do it."

"Okay, let's just have a simple meal at home."

Originally, Chen Huiying was planning to host a banquet for Xiao Tutu's first birthday and entertain relatives and neighbors.

But with so many things happening in the first month, my son participated in the rescue and was considered a relevant person.

The old Liu family had just finished their chores.

Chen Huiying had no choice but to ask Mazu about whether to serve wine.

As a result, I was asked several times.

There is no "holy grail".

Chen Huiying originally planned to ask Duoyu and Xiaoying again, but if the young people insisted, she would not stop them.

But as soon as the incident in Shangqi Village came out, Chen Huiying decided not to do anything about it.

What a bad start to the year.

Fortunately, those with red turtle, brown sugar and noodles have already been distributed to neighbors and relatives.

"By the way, Aniang, you must have a baby's birthday when you are one year old. Have you prepared the things for baby's baby? If not, I will go find someone else to borrow them."

"When you are ready, there will be no time. Shanshan's family has these things. Xiaoying has already told her that I have prepared the red cloth."

"You guys are still reliable." Li Duoyu played with little Tutu in the courtyard for a while, then hugged him and sneaked into the small room at the end.

Knocked on the wooden door.

But no one in the room responded. Li Duoyu said: "Sister, it's me, Duoyu."

After hearing the sound.

Only then did Li Shuihua dare to open the door.

The light in the room was very dim, and a small desk lamp was on.

Originally, Xiao Rong's room had a wooden window with a desk underneath, but not far from the window, there was someone else's courtyard.

Li Shuihua, who was afraid of being discovered, did not dare to open the window completely, and only dared to open a small gap to breathe.

After entering the room and seeing Ajie.

Li Duoyu suddenly felt distressed. Ajie's face was not very good. It had only been ten days, and the whole person looked very haggard.

Maybe because she ate and slept all day, she felt that her whole face was swollen.

Li Duoyu looked around the room. In this era without mobile phones, being locked up in such a small room felt worse than being in prison.

Li Duoyu brought her a lot of comic books, but Ajie was illiterate and could not understand many words, so he could not entertain her at all.

When Li Shuihua saw Xiao Tutu, she was so happy that tears almost fell, but she only dared to say in a low voice:

"Come, let A'gu hold you."

These days, A'niang would also hold Xiao Tutu to visit Ajie, and Xiao Tutu was not very afraid of Ajie.

Besides, my sister had taken care of two children before, so she knew how to coax them. Little Tutu was laughing happily in her arms not long after.

"Sister, how about I let Xiaoying teach you how to knit a sweater?"

Hearing about knitting a sweater.

Li Shuihua instantly became interested, but then frowned: "But is Xiaoying free? I'm so stupid, what if I can't learn it?"

Li Duoyu was silent for two seconds.

It seemed to be true. My sister was a martial arts type, and sewing was not really suitable for her.

"Try it first. I heard that it takes a long time to knit a sweater. Maybe you only need to knit a few sweaters to survive until the day you give birth."

"Okay, then I'll give it a try."

Li Duoyu sat in the house and chatted with my sister, and told her about what happened recently.

She was so scared that she quickly said, "Hurry up and write a letter to your brother-in-law to tell him not to go fishing in the open sea recently."

"Okay, no problem."

In fact, the elder sister was worried about many things, not only the baby in her belly, but also whether her two daughters at home would be bullied by her husband's family.

Although she told her two daughters that she would go out to work for half a year before coming to Dandan Island, she was really reluctant to see them crying so miserably before leaving.

In addition, the village was very patriarchal, and Li Shuihua was worried that her mother-in-law would treat her two daughters badly after her husband went out to sea.

Because she gave birth to daughters, her mother-in-law hardly helped to take care of them. She raised both daughters by herself, so she was particularly close to her daughters.

In the past, she occasionally heard her mother-in-law muttering that she wanted to give one of her daughters to someone else.

It made her angry.

When she thought of this, Li Shuihua's tears fell unconsciously.

Seeing the elder sister suddenly cry.

Li Duoyu patted her shoulder and said, "Sister, don't worry. When we were young, you protected me. When we grow up, I will protect you. If anyone dares to bully you, I will beat him up."

Li Shuihua suddenly laughed.

"Sure, you are promising now."

"That's right. No matter how bad your brother is, he is still a village director. Everyone should think carefully before bullying him."

"This is called having someone in your natal family."

Li Shuihua laughed happily. To be honest, she was not very happy in the past few years since she got married, but after hearing this, she instantly became strong again.

"Okay, sister will rely on you this time."

"It's okay to rely on you ten times."

"By the way, Xiaorong will be back in two days. She is now a resident doctor in a large hospital. If you feel uncomfortable, you can ask her directly."

When she heard that Xiaorong was coming back, Li Shuihua frowned: "When she comes back and sees that I am pregnant again, will she scold me to death?"

Li Duoyu nodded seriously.

"Be prepared, she will definitely scold you, be prepared to be lectured by her."

"Ah"

Li Duoyu chatted with the elder sister for more than an hour until Xiaoying's voice came from the yard.

"Duoyu, where did you take Tutu?"

After hearing the voice.

Li Shuihua hurriedly said: "Xiaoying is looking for the child, hurry up and send Tutu back to her."

"Then I'll leave first, and I'll come to accompany you when I'm free."

"You don't have to accompany me all the time, just come to see me occasionally and chat with me, I'll be very happy."
