Dressed up as a Real Mom

CH 20



In the afternoon, Wang Chunhua and Wei Yuanhang came back. The child\'s cheeks were flushed red as he bounced inside the door. The child shouted for his mother but she can\'t be seen in the yard. He Xiaoyun heard the sound and put down her book, she stood up and as soon as she walked to the door, she picked up the child.

The child threw himself into her arms and acted like a baby, "Mom, I miss you so much."

He Xiaoyun wiped his sweat, "Is the banquet food delicious?"

"It\'s delicious," the child nodded vigorously, "I brought mother something to eat!" As he said that, he ran out.

"Hey... your sweat hasn\'t been wiped off yet." Seeing that the child disappeared in the blink of an eye, He Xiaoyun reluctantly put down her hand and followed. After the wedding banquets, the guests leave with melon seeds, peanuts, and candies in their hands.

What Wei Yuanhang means about what he brought was a small snack from the banquet. It was the size of a child\'s hand, and it was made with milk. 

"Mom, you\'re back." He Xiaoyun stepped into the hall. Wang Chunhua was holding a plate with peanuts, when she saw He Xiaoyun coming over, she said, "That kid has played all the way and said he wanted to bring delicious food to his mother. Here it is."

"It\'s really delicious!" Wei Yuanhang took a small snack from his grandmother and handed it to He Xiaoyun like a treasure. He Xiaoyun smiled and patted his head, took the snack, and ate a small bite, then she nodded in praise, "It\'s really delicious."

The child watched eagerly. He Xiaoyun returned the snack to him, but he put his hand behind him and shook his head, and said, "Xiaoyuan has eaten. Giving this to mother to eat."

He said that but he was obviously still greedy, his eyes couldn\'t help but follow her hand holding the snack. He Xiaoyun happily gave out a reason, "Thank you, but your mother is too full and can\'t eat it now. If I leave it to eat in the evening, this snack will go bad. You can help your mother by eating it."

Wei Yuanhang didn\'t doubt her words, so he took the snack back and said, "Then mother, don\'t eat too much. If you eat too much, you won\'t be able to eat the delicious snacks."

"Got it." He Xiaoyun smiled. The child told her what he had eaten today and what he had played with. He Xiaoyun dealt with him while talking to Wang Chunhua.

"Will the canal be finished soon?" Wang Chunhua asked.

"Well, Jianwei explained that it would need fixing for one more day. Mom, my elder sister came to see me today." He Xiaoyun repeated what He Xiaofen said in the morning.

After listening, Wang Chunhua repeatedly nodded and agreed: "It should be like this. The 50th birthday of a person is a big event, it will only happen once in a lifetime. The day after tomorrow, you go back with Jianwei and Xiaoyuan. You can take one of the chickens at home as a gift."

He Xiaoyun refused, "No, we can just buy in the county and give it to my mother as a gift."

There are a total of three chickens in the family, one is reserved for laying eggs, one has to be handed in at the end of the year, and the last one, to sell. If her mother-in-law kills one chicken on her mother\'s birthday, what will they sell?

If the others know this, they will think of Wang Chunhua as a partial in-law that only favored the second son and his wife, Feng Qieyue might not care about this but others will. Wang Chunhua didn\'t know this reason, but she felt very happy that her second daughter-in-law was able to take the initiative to refuse it.

He Xiaoyun shook her head and smiled: "I also have the money. Jianwei gave it to me before, so mom doesn\'t need to worry about it."

"Then you can buy what else you need. There are some dry goods at home you can take, don\'t buy those anymore."

"Okay." He Xiaoyun nodded in response.

Wei Zhenxing(the father) and his son(eldest son) didn\'t go home until the evening. He Xiaoyun was bathing Wei Yuanhang in the yard: "Your Auntie brought her little daughter to the house today, do you remember that little sister?"

The child was sitting in the big tub as he slapped the water happily. Hearing what his mother said, he tilted his head and thought about it, "That little sister is very small."

"Yes, but she has grown up a little bit now. The little sister likes your building blocks very much, so I gave her two. Will Xiaoyuan be unhappy?"

"My building blocks..." Wei Yuanhang pouted his mouth. He\'s not the kind of child who is very protective of toys. He would take the initiative to share with Yanyan if he has many toys to play with, but if Yanyan wants to take his toys away, he can only say: Go home, it won\'t work.

He Xiaoyun coaxed: "I don\'t want to give it to her, but the little sister keeps crying, what can I do?"

"Okay." The chubby kid agreed reluctantly, but he had to add a sentence at the end, "Little sister is a crying ghost."

"Yes, so don\'t cry like her." He Xiaoyun poked his nose.

Wei Jianwei stepped in from outside the door and saw his son sitting in a tub. This scene, he has seen many times. He didn’t think there was anything wrong before, but when he thought of the question of whether his son was fat or not that he was discussing with He Xiaoyun at noon, he couldn’t help but look again. He looked at the fleshy little body.

It seems...that his son is indeed a bit fat?

"Grandpa and Dad are back!" The child both saw them, calling out to them loudly, jumping up from the basin, the flesh on his little body trembled.

Really fat.

A certain father came to a conclusion.

After dinner, Wei Yuanhang began to talk to his grandfather and father about what he had eaten today, while He Xiaoyun was carrying her clothes and preparing to go to the river to wash. It was dark early before, and it was dark after dinner, so she could only save her clothes until the next day. Now, the sun has just set, and it\'s still bright for a while.

Seeing her going out, Wei Jianwei also stood up and led his son out.

"Where are you and the child going?" Wang Chunhua asked from behind.

Wei Jianwei answered: "Taking him for a walk and exercise."

Wang Chunhua stared at their backs, it took her a while to say to Wei Zhenxing: "I think your son has gone crazy from being a soldier. Xiaoyuan is only three, why would he let the child exercise?"

As soon as He Xiaoyun walked out, she heard the little kid calling her. Looking back, the father and son followed her slowly. She stood still, "What are you two doing?"

"Dad said to take me for a walk." Wei Yuanhang immediately tattled.

He Xiaoyun glanced at Wei Jianwei, "Okay, you guys can slowly follow, I\'m going to wash my clothes."

When they arrived at the river, there were already many people there, some of them had fast hands and feet, they had to go back after washing. One person saw the two tails following behind He Xiaoyun and joked: "Are you going to wash clothes or have a family battle?"

He Xiaoyun smiled, "The child can\'t stay at home."

Some people joked about Wei Jianwei, "I think Jianwei is 80% afraid that Xiaoyun will be snatched by the Dragon King, otherwise, why does he looks at you look so tightly?"

Everyone by the river laughed. Wei Yuanhang didn\'t know why the adults had laughed, but he also laughed along. The others laughed louder when they saw it.

He Xiaoyun had a smile on her face but had beaten Wei Jianwei again and again in her heart. He took a walk and then went for a walk. But why did he need to follow her to the river and make her a laughing joke? This is really hateful.

She speeded up her hand movements and washed her clothes for a much shorter time than usual, she quickly left the place with the tub. The father and son were on the embankment, walking from one end to the other, and then slowly came back. By coincidence, they happened to meet her after washing, and they followed her again.

He Xiaoyun walked a bit fast. Wei Yuanhang shouted from behind to ask her mother to slow down. She walked to the edge of a bamboo forest, where the others could not see, and then stopped. The little kid broke away from his father\'s hand and ran over, panting a little, "Mom walks so fast."

He Xiaoyun looked down at him, "It\'s not that you don\'t recognize the way back, you can just walk slowly with your dad."

"But I want to go with my mother." The child argued. Wei Jianwei also walked up to them, He Xiaoyun raised her eyes and said, "Next time you two take a walk, don\'t follow me."

"I didn\'t follow you, we\'re just on the same way."

Same way, your ghost! He Xiaoyun glared at him, slandering him inwardly. Wei Jianwei stretched out her hand to help her carry the wooden basin but she leaned aside, "No need, let\'s go."

Wei Yuanhang said, "Mom, let dad take it, I want mom to lead me."

"Fine, I\'ll lead you." She said as she carried the tub on her waist and freed her hand.

The child hurried forward to hold her hand but didn\'t pay attention to the ground. He tripped over a small stone and bumped into He Xiaoyun\'s arms.

She carried the basin with one hand, and her center of gravity wasn\'t stable. When she was hit so unexpectedly, she fell backward. Fortunately, Wei Jianwei moved fast and took her hand so that the mother and son won\'t fall to the ground.

Wei Yuanhang rubbed his forehead and stood upright. He wanted to act like a baby to his mother. He raised his head to see that his father was holding his mother\'s hand!

He immediately raged, "Dad, go away, don\'t grab my mother!"
