Rural Scenery of Rebirth

Chapter 49

The two went downstairs, the food was already on the table, Lei Jun's elder brother Lei Shan also came back.

Seeing Xia Chen, Jiang Shufen hurriedly smiled and said, "Xiaochen, come and sit down."

Xia Chen walked over with a smile.

Lei Jun introduced his eldest brother Lei Shan to Xia Chen, Xia Chen smiled and shouted; "Brother."

Lei Shan glanced at Xia Chen several times, and answered unnaturally.

Compared with Lei Jun, Lei Shan seems to be taller and bigger, probably because he has been working in the fields for a long time, his skin is much darker than Lei Jun, but his appearance is also good.

The family sat around the table, with Jiang Shufen and Lei Zhenguo sitting at the top, Xia Chen and Lei Jun sitting on their left, Lei Shan and Li Wenli on the right, and Lei Xin sitting alone.

Seeing that everyone was here, Jiang Shufen pushed his wife, and Lei Zhenguo said, "Let's eat."

Before Xia Chen could pick up vegetables with chopsticks, Jiang Shufen filled Xia Chen with half a bowl of pumpkin soup, and said, "Xiaochen, drink some soup first, try this pumpkin, it tastes sweet."

"Mom, I'll do it myself." Seeing that both Lei Shan and Li Wenli were looking at him with strange eyes, and even the youngest Lei Xin sneaked a glance at her, Xia Chen took the soup from Jiang Shufen's hand and drank it uncomfortably.

"Mom, let Xiaochen come by herself." Lei Jun looked at Jiang Shufen and said hurriedly.

Glancing at the expressions of the eldest son and eldest daughter-in-law, Jiang Shufen nodded and said with a smile, "Okay, Xiaochen can pick whatever she likes."

Xia Chen nodded hurriedly, finally relaxing a little.

Lei Zhenguo gave a proper "hum" twice, and Lei Shan and Li Wenli hurriedly lowered their heads to eat.

This meal, Xia Chen ate to his heart's content. The vegetables were tender and refreshing, and the pumpkin soup was sweet and not greasy at all, which suited his taste. Xia Chen drank three bowls in a row, and ate a lot of vegetables. Instead of the two bowls of rice, Xia Chen only moved two chopsticks for the two meat dishes on the table.

Xia Chen's big appetite naturally caught the attention of Lei Shan and Li Wenli.However, although the two were surprised that Xia Chen had a big appetite, they didn't think much about it, and only attributed it to Jiang Shufen's good craftsmanship.My mother's cooking skills are well-known in Leijia Village. No matter who comes to their house as a guest, they have to eat two more bowls of rice.The only thing that made Li Wenli feel strange was that her mother-in-law obviously cooked the dishes according to Xia Chen's taste.My family loves spicy food, but the dishes made by my mother-in-law don't contain any chili.

Although in the morning, as soon as Lei Shan came back from the vegetable field, her mother-in-law had already revealed the relationship between Xia Chen and her uncle to her and Lei Shan, but Li Wenli still can't believe that her old-fashioned father-in-law actually accepted her uncle's liking. For the man's affairs, he even brought home the man my uncle likes.Moreover, the mother-in-law seemed to be very concerned about that Xia Chen, and the father-in-law was not angry at all, which seemed strange no matter how she looked at it.

Thinking of this, Li Wenli sneaked another glance at Xia Chen, who was full and was putting down the bowl.

With food, Xia Chen was hungry again, and Xia Chen couldn't care less about other things, and devoted himself to eating. Seeing Xia Chen's appetite was so good, Jiang Shufen also had a smile on her face.

It's not good to sit down after eating, so Lei Jun walked around the yard with Xia Chen.

Lei Xin was very curious about this good-looking little uncle. When the two of them were looking at the green fruits on the orange tree in the yard, she sat with a small bench at the door of the house, stealing in the direction of the two of them from time to time. Taking a glance, Xia Chen noticed her movement, and when she looked over, Lei Xin blushed and immediately turned her eyes away.

Because the twins have completely different personalities, Xia Chen thinks this shy little girl is very cute.

Seeing Lei Xin looking over again, Xia Chen smiled gently and waved to her.

Lei Xin hesitated for a while before walking over slowly.

Xia Chen deliberately lowered his tone, with a gentle smile on his face, finally let Lei Xin relax, and slowly, during Xia Chen's questioning, he started talking to him.

Seeing Xia Chen talking with his little niece, Lei Jun also had a smile on his lips.

Li Wenli, who was tidying up in the kitchen, also had a good impression of Xia Chen when she saw the situation outside the yard.Therefore, no matter when, children are the best relationship bridges, which can quickly narrow the distance between adults.

After staying with Xia Chen for a while, Lei Jun went into the house to discuss things with his elder brother Lei Shan. When he came back this time, he wanted to tell his elder brother about staying at home.However, before that, he still needs to go back to City H. There are still many things that he needs to go back to deal with. Xiaochen lives in the country, and there are some things that need to be brought over, as well as Uncle Chen. I have to go back and explain.

The demolition plan for the two houses I bought before leaving City H had already been announced, and people from the relevant units had already called twice to contact them. Up to now, this matter could not be delayed.

When Lei Jun went back this time, he had already discussed with Xia Chen that he would go back alone. Xia Chen was inconvenient, so he would stay with his parents.

For the sake of the little guy in his stomach, Xia Chen didn't plan to go back to City H with Lei Jun. He knew that with his current body, it was really not suitable for him to travel far.

But Lei Jun has been away for a while, and the family affairs must still be watched by the elder brother.What's more, Mr. Lei has just been discharged from the hospital, and the family must leave a man guarding him to be at ease.

Lei Jun discussed with Lei Shan, and when Lei Jun came back from City H, Lei Shan went to the county town to find a shop to prepare a small restaurant. In order to deal with the affairs of City H as soon as possible, and stay at home with Xia Chen at ease, Lei Jun discussed with Xia Chen After a while, with Xiaochen's consent, he only stayed at home for one night and set off the next day.

As soon as Lei Jun left, Xia Chen was naturally not used to it. He knew that Lei Shan and Li Wenli were uncomfortable seeing him. For the first two days, except for eating, he stayed in the room to read and sleep.Recently, he seems to be prone to drowsiness for a longer time, and he always looks like he can't wake up.

Jiang Shufen was afraid that he would be bored in the room alone, so she would occasionally go upstairs to chat with him.

After a few days of getting along, the little girl Lei Xin has become familiar with Xia Chen, and she naturally talks more. When the little girl comes home from school to do homework, she may not know it. From her grandma, she knows that the uncle is the same as the third uncle. It is often talked about by the adults, a very good college student, when he was in the county, he would also tutor his twin brothers, and after obtaining the consent of his grandmother and parents, he ran upstairs with his homework and asked his uncle.

Leijia Village is not far from the town, and if you walk slowly, it will take more than half an hour. Lei Xin goes to school after eating in the morning, and walks back with the people in the village after school in the afternoon. Adult pick up and drop off.

So, just like with Miss Lei Xiu, after Lei Xin came home from school, Xia Chen became a tutor again and taught Lei Xin.

Xia Chen even discovered that since having this little guy in his belly, he seems to have a physique that attracts children. Compared with Lei Jun, a real uncle, the twins and little girl Lei Xin seem to be more willing to get close to him.

Could it be that, with the little thing, he still exudes the brilliance of motherhood and sex? For this, Xia Chen has a black face and firmly refuses to admit it.

This afternoon, Xia Chen took a nap and finished reading all the books he brought in his room. He was really bored. Looking at the open scenery outside the window, Xia Chen planned to go downstairs for a walk. If you can't see it, it doesn't matter if you go out for a walk. If you wait for a while to show your stomach, it will definitely be inconvenient to go out.

After going downstairs, Xia Chen walked out curiously when he heard a "pop" from outside the yard.

Mr. Lei sat alone at the stone table, thinking hard about the Go board placed on the stone table.

Hearing Xia Chen's footsteps, the old man looked up at him and asked, "Can you play Go?"

Xia Chen nodded, he can play Go, but his chess skills are just bad.

"Come over and play the next game with me." Without waiting for Xia Chen to say anything, the old man hurriedly said that he was really bored in the hospital during this time, and when he wanted to go out, his family members refused to let him, saying they would wait for him Only after a complete recovery will the chess players in the village have to be busy with their work in the field, and it is impossible to come to the house every day. Playing chess alone is really boring.

The old man has already made up his mind, and Xia Chen can't postpone it, so he can only bite the bullet and go in. He can't help but think in his heart that the old man won't be able to curse if he doesn't play well.

Someone was playing chess with him, and Mr. Lei was very happy, with a smile on his face, and he quickly put the black and white chess pieces on the board, "Would you like black or white pieces?" Mr. Lei asked.

Xia Chen directly picked up the white stone.

"You come first." Mr. Lei said again.

Xia Chen picked up a white coin and put it in the middle. The old man glanced at Xia Chen, then picked up a black coin and placed it next to the white coin.

After playing three times in a row, Xia Chen really lost, and never won.The old man's face turned black, and in the end, the old man didn't care about his own side, and directly guided Xia Chen, and told him the skills of playing chess. Xia Chen sat on the seat obediently, An expression that listened carefully and seriously.Now, the old man spoke more vigorously. The old man likes serious children very much.

The three sons in the family, the eldest and the second don't like to play chess. Well, there are not many people in the village who can play Go, and they are all stinky chess players. After losing, they would play tricks every time to make him jump in anger. It's so bad, the old man loves talents, and of course he won't let go of the opportunity to be a teacher.

If Xia Chen knew what the old man was thinking, he would be speechless. Where did the old man know that he likes to play Go...

However, after the go incident, the relationship between Xia Chen and the old man improved by leaps and bounds.The old man was no longer the same as before. When facing him, he put on a taciturn expression.

Mr. Lei became addicted to being a teacher.

Every day, as soon as Xia Chen went downstairs and finished eating, the old man's voice sounded, "Xiaochen, play chess with me later." Li Wenli would give him a strange look.

Jiang Shufen smiled at Xia Chen, but she was happy to see the result, and she was very happy about the change in her wife's attitude towards Xiao Chen.

In order to play chess with the old man, Xia Chen had to sacrifice his sleep time. However, under the guidance of the old man, Xia Chen really liked playing Go.He even called Lei Jun and asked him to bring back some chess books for the old man to study.

For this matter, the old man was happy for several days, and praised Xia Chen in front of his eldest son, daughter-in-law, and old woman.

After getting along for this period of time, Xia Chen has figured out the old man's preferences and personality. In fact, as long as he doesn't disobey the old man, follow the old man's words, and tell him well, the old man is still very cute and easy to get along with.

Lei Jun has been away for more than ten days, playing chess with the old man and teaching Lei Xin, Xia Chen feels that time flies too fast.

On this day, the sun happened to be out. Xia Chen hadn't been out of the yard for a while, playing chess with the old man at home every day.

Moreover, Mr. Lei was really irritable at home. After breakfast, he stopped asking Xia Chen to play chess, and yelled at his wife to go out for a walk.

Jiang Shufen saw that the weather outside was really nice, and it happened that Lei Xin was on vacation, so she asked her eldest granddaughter to accompany Xia Chen and the old man to their fish pond to catch some fish, just in time to make sweet and sour fish for Xiao Chen.Anyway, the fish ponds are all next to their own yard, not far away. They are accompanied by their eldest granddaughter. The eldest son and daughter-in-law are also busy in the orchard behind their house, and they can hear everything they call.

When it comes to fishing, Xia Chen's face shows an expression of excitement. He really has never eaten fish that he dropped with his own hands.However, what he didn't expect was that Lei Jun's family also raised fish in addition to the orchard.

Seeing his high interest, Mr. Lei, a veteran, naturally has the idea of ​​becoming a teacher again, and he is also a little interested in going fishing.

Immediately, Mr. Lei went to the house to look for fishing rods.

Jiang Shufen went to the kitchen to find a bucket, brought out two small stools, and asked Lei Xin to take Xia Chen to the fish pond to find a place to put the stools.

"Understood, grandma." Lei Xin answered with a bucket and a stool.

Jiang Shufen nodded in relief.

Xia Chen carried another stool, followed Lei Xin, and quickly walked out of the yard, led by Lei Xin, towards the fish pond.

When he arrived at the fish pond, Xia Chen discovered that the fish pond was really not small at all, and there were a lot of lotus roots planted in it.
