112. Childhood Memories
"Hmph, if you want me to say it's just a biased person. What era is this? You still prefer boys over girls."
Half an hour later, the second uncle and his family arrived. Seeing Jin Xiao sitting next to his grandmother and surrounded by three old men, Jin Hui muttered unhappily.
The second uncle coughed awkwardly, but he couldn't say anything.
Indeed, Jin Hui was right. This is an era. Beiyun is not a remote mountain village. Logically, people's hearts have changed a long time ago, and those who prefer boys over girls basically no longer exist.
But then that's it, in fact, there are still many such families, and the Jin Xiao family is just one of them.
In fact, it is also false to say that he does not have the idea of favoring boys over girls in his heart. If he really thinks that his son and daughter are the same, why would he have tried his best to have a second child? Jin Xiao knew that the second aunt seemed to be injured when she gave birth to Huihui, and it was not easy to get pregnant afterwards. Logically speaking, this is not something that Jin Xiao should have known, but he could always vaguely hear something when his parents talked, which was considered to be aware of this.
For the sake of his son, the second uncle and second aunt had been struggling for several years, and finally he succeeded in getting pregnant and having a baby. As a result, he gave birth to a daughter. For this matter, the second uncle was still depressed for a long time.
So the second uncle is actually a manly relative to girls, but the couple is not very good. Not only are they disappointed, but grandpa and the others are also disappointed. However, others can't help with this matter. After the second uncle and second aunt gave birth to the second sister, their bodies could no longer bear the third pregnancy, so they could only leave it alone.
"Don't talk nonsense, be careful that grandpa is unhappy."
Second Aunt scolded in a low voice.
However, although his voice was low, everyone in the family could hear it. Grandpa's face was a little embarrassed, but the embarrassment lasted for only a moment, and he focused his attention on Jin Xiao again.
There is another thing that no one said, that is, this time I saw Jin Xiao, I always felt that Jin Xiao was much more handsome.
The elders just think that Jin Xiao looks good no matter how you look at it. This was the case before, so you don’t feel that much.
Jin Xiao’s parents are so familiar with Jin Xiao. Although they feel that there is some change, they feel that there is no change at all, so they don’t say anything.
But for others, Jin Xiao’s changes are really big, not the changes in his facial features. His facial features are like before, but the overall feeling becomes completely different.
"Xiaoxiao, are you...what you said? You always feel...you seem to be different..."
The second uncle put the cooked food he brought to the kitchen, came over to chat with his father and mother, and observed Jin Xiao for a moment, and couldn't help but feel a little confused.
The last time we met was three months ago. In three months, Jin Xiao gave him the feeling that the changes were very big. If you look closely, it is indeed the same person, but you always feel that it has become a lot.
"Ah? Uncle Second, what are you talking about?"
Jin Xiao decided to pretend to be stupid.
"My grandson has become more handsome than before, and it's different when he goes to college."
The old man said deliberately, for this grandson, he really held it in his hand and was afraid it would fall off, and he was afraid it would melt when he held it in his mouth.
Moreover, he was very happy that Jin Xiao was admitted to Pengda University. Although he was not as good as the top institution like Beijing University, it was also a very good school. In comparison, Jin Xiao's father dropped out of school in his third year of high school and his second uncle dropped out of school in his first year of high school. Jin Xiao's performance can be described as perfect, at least for the old man.
I just heard Jin Xiao say that he opened a company and made hundreds of thousands of dollars during the National Day holiday. The old man was in such a good mood. He could see a smile on his face, which was always stern.
Jin Xiao chatted with his grandparents for a while, then gave the venue to his second uncle and father. He turned around and left the bedroom and came to the yard from the small door.
It is actually not small at all, but it looks like dozens of square meters. From home, it is a small path made of stones that leads to the storage room at the end of the courtyard. On both sides are orchards and vegetable fields. Although the yard is not big, this small area on the east side of the road has become a small orchard, with an apple tree and a jujube tree planted, and a large piece of grape vines, and watermelon and loofah planted in the corner. On the right is a small vegetable field, with onions, garlic, leeks, tomatoes, eggplant and potatoes, and some green leafy vegetables.
This is Jin Xiao’s favorite place to come when he was a child. Now it’s similar. He and Huihui used to like playing under the vines. When it’s hot in the summer, it will be very cool under the vines. In autumn, you can pick grapes and eat them. Because there is no pesticide injection, you can eat them with water. There is also a well in the yard, and now there is water. There is probably no such well in Beiyun City. Because there are already pipes under the city, there are few underground pipes, so this well can survive.
The well water is cool and sweet, and it is very refreshing and refreshing when you drink it in summer. To this day, my grandma's house has tap water, but the family still likes to get water from the well. A water pump is installed at the wellhead and no longer has to carry it with a bucket. It is so convenient that it is many times more convenient.
Jin Xiao entered the courtyard and saw Huihui lying under the grape trellis at a glance.
Huihui was lying on the lounge chair with a glass of water in her hand, and was lying there playing with her cell phone.
"Why don't you go in and talk?"
Jin Xiao walked up and looked at Huihui's mobile phone screen. She was playing with King of Pesticides and was fighting fiercely.
"Hmph, what do you mean? Anyway, grandparents only like you. When I went over, they ignored me. I might as well play with my phone by myself."
Huihui snorted coldly.
She wasn't really angry because she had been used to it for a long time. If she was angry, she would have been so angry.
She just looked upset and just showed up too much, without seeing her.
Jin Xiao was a little embarrassed by Huihui's words. He wanted to say something, but he was the beneficiary. No matter what he said, he felt like he was showing off and had no position to say things to comfort him.
He sighed silently, moved the recliner next to him, laying on him, feeling the coolness under the grape trellis.
"I thought you were used to it, grandparents were just like that, and you didn't know."
"I know, so I don't say anything. Can't I afford to mess with me? What about you? Your eldest grandson, my grandparents' heart, my granddaughters have avoided it now. Wouldn't you stay with your grandparents?"
Huihui is three years younger than Jin Xiao. She is in the first year of high school this year, and it was the time to rebel. In the past, her brother was too old and shorter, but now she opens her mouth and shuts up and calls Jin Xiao’s name directly, and she doesn’t respect him at all.
"You have to leave the space for others. Your dad and my dad haven't been here for a long time. They also have a lot of things to say to grandpa, I don't want to disturb them, so why not come out and enjoy the cool air."
Jin Xiao shrugged and said casually.
