In fact, Xiao Wei did not leave without saying goodbye. When she was cleaning up the kitchen, she realized that there were no more vegetables at home. Otherwise, why would she buy buns at noon?
Little Wei came to the market. He first walked to the meat stall and bought two catties of pork. Then, he bought a white striped chicken. Then, he went to the aquatic products stall and carefully selected a big carp. After buying the main things, the only thing left to buy was vegetables. He bought a big bag of beans, eggplants, green peppers, and celery. It was enough for Ma Xiaohui and her daughter to eat for a few days.
Ma Xiaohui's mother was still sitting on the brick bed, complaining that Xiao Wei had left without saying goodbye. Suddenly, she saw Xiao Wei coming back from the window with so many things in his hands. She wanted to get down to help, but her body couldn't move fast enough. Before she could get down, Xiao Wei had already entered the house.
" Oh, my child. I thought you had left. Why did you buy so much? You must be exhausted. Come sit here and rest," Ma Xiaohui's mother said as she let Xiao Wei sit in front of her. " I'm not tired. I'll come over after I'm done packing them," Little Wei replied as she busied herself with her hands. She washed the pork and cut it into pieces, cut open the carp and put it on the plate, and chopped the white striped chicken into small pieces.
She placed the vegetables in a small basin before carrying them into the house. She placed the vegetables on the edge of the Kang, then found two old newspapers and placed them on the Kang. She began to choose the vegetables. Ma Xiaohui's mother also came over to help.
After choosing the vegetables, Xiao Wei sorted them out one by one. He put the vegetables that he wanted to eat tonight aside and packed the rest for the next meal. Because Ma Xiaohui had to wait until he came back from work to go to the market every day to buy vegetables, these vegetables could be eaten for a few days.
Xiao Wei glanced at the watch on his wrist and felt that it was about time. He began to cook. She first boiled the chicken soup. After the chicken soup was done, she used the chicken to make Kung Pao Chicken, steamed carp, and meat slices. After these three main dishes were done, she began to steam rice.
Ma Xiaohui got off work with a handful of chives in his hand. As soon as he walked into the yard, he smelled a fragrance, but he was sure that the smell must have been improved by one of the neighbors. However, when he looked up and saw the glass on his window, he was stunned. Why did it seem like all the glass was gone? When he took a closer look, he realized that the glass was still there. It was because it had been wiped too clean that he suddenly froze. " Who cleaned the glass?" He walked in with a question in his mind. When he saw Xiao Wei working in the kitchen, he immediately understood.
Seeing that Ma Xiaohui had returned, Xiao Wei took the initiative to greet him." It's time to get off work!" Yes, I'm off work." Ma Xiaohui answered as he thought to himself, Why are you here? When Ma Xiaohui's mother saw that her son had returned, she quickly said to him," Xiao Wei is tired from the whole day. Hurry up and replace her!" "Sigh!" Ma Xiaohui put down the things in his hands and went to the kitchen.
In the kitchen, Xiao Wei was cooking. Ma Xiaohui rushed over to help, but he couldn't help. " You don't have to do that. You can set the table and bring the bowls and chopsticks up," Xiao Wei instructed Ma Xiaohui as he cooked.
Although Ma Xiaohui did not answer, he did as Xiao Wei said.
After a while, Xiao Wei placed the dishes on the table one by one. Suddenly, she remembered something and turned to leave. Ma Xiaohui understood what she wanted to do and grabbed her, saying," I'll go."
Ma Xiaohui quickly bought a bottle of white wine, two bottles of beer, and a bottle of soft drink.
Dinner began. Xiao Wei first poured a drink for Ma Xiaohui's mother. Just as he was about to pour wine for Ma Xiaohui, Ma Xiaohui picked up her glass and filled it with beer. Then, he poured himself a glass of white wine. " Come, let me toast Auntie. I wish Auntie good health and happiness in her later years!" Xiao Wei said as he toasted Ma Xiaohui's mother. Although he didn't mention Ma Xiaohui's share, he also raised his glass and toasted his mother along with Xiao Wei.
Ma Xiaohui's mother looked at Xiao Wei and her son. She was so happy. It had been many years, and she had never been as happy as today.
Little Wei did not look at Ma Xiaohui directly, nor did he talk to him. Seeing Little Wei's lukewarm expression, Ma Xiaohui was too embarrassed to rush forward. He drank and ate while listening to his mother and Little Wei chatting enthusiastically. From time to time, he would also chime in.
Seeing his mother so happy today, Ma Xiaohui also felt very comfortable in his heart. He wanted to raise a glass of wine to thank Little Wei several times, but he swallowed the words that were about to come out of his mouth. Xiao Wei's sudden arrival today was something he had not expected. Not only did Little Wei come, but he also changed the house. This was something that he did not expect. Xiao Wei was a pampered girl, but she actually knew how to do these chores and make her mother happy. Thinking of this, Ma Xiaohui seemed to understand Xiao Wei's intentions. However, what worried him the most was that Xiao Wei was afraid that Xiao Wei would ask his mother about the person she liked, so he couldn't help but look a little uneasy.
Xiao Wei looked at Ma Xiaohui's unnatural expression and could not help but feel proud. She thought,'Didn't you say that you already have someone you like? If you really have someone, I can tell from your mother's words and expression.' After today, I can conclude that you, Ma Xiaohui, are lying. From now on, I'll get along with your mother. You're a filial son. You don't dare to disobey your mother's words. As long as your mother acknowledges me, I'm not afraid of you, Ma Xiaohui, saying anything! At the thought of this, Little Wei smiled and raised his glass to Ma Xiaohui." Come, let me toast you too. You know I don't drink beer, but I'm happy today, so I made an exception." Hearing Xiao Wei's words, Ma Xiaohui could not help but raise his glass. They clinked glasses. Xiao Wei drank it all in one gulp, and Ma Xiaohui also took a big gulp.
After dinner, Xiao Wei cleaned up the table while Ma Xiaohui helped him. In a short while, everything was cleaned up. Xiao Wei boiled another pot of water and filled the thermos. He poured the rest of the water into the washbasin and mixed it with some cold water. He tested it with his hands and found that it was neither hot nor cold. Then, he brought the washbasin to Ma Xiaohui's mother and let her warm her feet.
Ma Xiaohui saw all of this. He praised Xiao Wei from the bottom of his heart that she was a good girl, but he did not say it out loud.
Xiao Wei was about to go home. Ma Xiaohui's mother instructed Ma Xiaohui to send her home. Ma Xiaohui had always listened to his mother's words. He agreed and went to push the bicycle. Xiao Wei said goodbye to Ma Xiaohui's mother and followed Ma Xiaohui out of his house.
" Let's ride the bike," Ma Xiaohui said to Little Wei. "Alright!" Xiao Wei agreed and jumped onto the back seat of Ma Xiaohui's bicycle. Ma Xiaohui had yet to get on the bicycle. When he saw Xiao Wei sitting in the back seat, he had no choice but to use one leg to cross the beam and ride the bicycle. Ma Xiaohui rode his bicycle very fast. As he rode, he thought, I'd better send you home quickly so that you don't ask me about that on the way. Xiao Wei, who was sitting on the backseat of the bicycle, saw through Ma Xiaohui's intentions. He thought to himself,'You're riding so fast today. You can dodge the first one, but you can still dodge the fifteenth. You're now a kite in my hands. The kite string is in my hands. I'm not afraid that you'll run away!'
Along the way, the two of them on the bicycle were trying to figure out each other and fighting with each other.
Ma Xiaohui finally sent Xiao Wei to her home. He stopped the bicycle and Xiao Wei jumped off. Then, he walked straight home without looking back.
Looking at Little Wei's back, Ma Xiaohui couldn't help but laugh to himself.
From then on, Xiao Wei would go to Ma Xiaohui's house every three to five days. On public holidays, she would take care of all the housework at Ma Xiaohui's house.
Just like that, half a year passed in a flash. As time passed, Ma Xiaohui's mother and Xiao Wei got along very well. In the eyes of outsiders, they were simply a pair of mother and daughter. As long as she did not see Xiao Wei for a few days, Ma Xiaohui's mother could not even eat. Every time Xiao Wei left Ma Xiaohui's house, it was Ma Xiaohui's mother who asked Ma Xiaohui to send her off. As time passed, Ma Xiaohui formed a habit. As long as Xiao Wei was about to leave, he would take the initiative to push the bicycle to the gate and wait for Xiao Wei before sending her home.
Every time Ma Xiaohui sent Xiao Wei home late, not only did his mother not scold him, but she was also very happy. Ma Xiaohui's mother thought that her son came back so late because he was whispering to Xiao Wei.
In fact, every time Ma Xiaohui sent Xiao Wei off, he did not whisper anything at all. Even if they talked, it would be something at home or in the mine. There was never a sweet word.
On this day, Ma Xiaohui sent Xiao Wei home as usual. After seeing Xiao Wei enter the house, he rode his bicycle quickly to the courtyard.
Ma Xiaohui came to this courtyard almost every day, but he rarely entered this courtyard. Unless there was something that he had to do and he had to go in, he would only enter this courtyard.
That evening, the weather was as dark as the bottom of a pot. When Ma Xiaohui rushed to the gate of the courtyard, it started to rain heavily. Fortunately, he brought an umbrella with him when he came out of the house. Ma Xiaohui placed his bicycle under a big tree not far from the courtyard. Then, he held an umbrella and looked at the dormitory in the courtyard.
Every time Ma Xiaohui saw the lights in the dormitory, he would feel warm in his heart. If he saw the figure reflected in the window of the dormitory again, he would immediately feel excited.
Ma Xiaohui looked into the courtyard for a long time, but he did not see the light in the dormitory. He rubbed his eyes with his hands. When he looked again, it was still pitch-black. What's going on? What about the lights in the dormitory? Where were the people in the dormitory?
Ma Xiaohui was stunned by the scene in front of him.
